Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife

Chapter 878: Chapter 879: Soaking Up the Joy of New Life

Listening to the cries of pain from inside the room, Cheng Su felt a chill run through her body, making her soft and trembling.

"Scared? Women giving birth is always like this. You’ll experience it in the future too; consider it a rehearsal." Beside her, someone noticed Cheng Su’s fear and laughed.

What, a rehearsal?

No, just listening to it made all her bones ache. If it were her, wouldn’t it be a heart-wrenching pain?

She was most afraid of pain. What should she do in the future? No, the current technology for caesarean sections should be quite advanced, right?

"Guiying, how’s Guiying?" Wan Dahe rushed in from outside, wanting to dash into the room.

Several sisters-in-law quickly pulled him back, saying, "Dahe, you can’t go in. Look, you’re all sweaty. Go wash up quickly. Once the baby is born, you’ll have to take mother and child to the hospital."

Wan Dahe’s face turned pale from hearing the cries, like he had lost his soul, and he was pushed out by others.

Cheng Su watched, feeling even more scared.

Not long after, Hualing came out as well, face pale and drenched with sweat.

"Still not born yet?" Cheng Su grabbed her and asked.

Hualing shook her head, "No."

"Then why are you out here? How can you not be inside helping?" Cheng Su was anxious.

"I’m not a midwife; I’ve never experienced such a scene. I, I’m scared!" Hualing said with a pale face.

Cheng Su glared at her, truly, a nurse afraid of childbirth.

"Don’t glare at me, aren’t you the same?" Hualing weakly retorted.

"I’m not a nurse." Cheng Su shot back.

Hualing, hit by her words, glared at her several times.

Fortunately, there were nurses from the Health Camp inside helping, along with sisters-in-law who had given birth before, so she wasn’t entirely without help.

After what seemed like an eternity or perhaps just an instant, Cheng Su heard a cry like that of a kitten.

"It’s born, it’s born!" She exclaimed in delight, grabbing Hualing’s hand and shouting.

Hualing was also very pleased, gripping her hand back. Realizing, they both let out a "hum" and awkwardly let go of each other’s hands.

"Is it born?" Wan Dahe’s eyes lit up, "How’s Guiying? Is she okay?"

Someone came out with the good news, "It’s a big healthy boy, mother and child are safe."

Hualing’s smiling face froze for a moment; it was a son. Her eyes showed indescribable envy and her expression turned a bit forlorn as she gently touched her belly.

Cheng Su caught a glimpse from the corner of her eye and teased, "Tonight, have a good time with Chen Shouwang, soak in the newborn’s happiness, and who knows, you might just hit the jackpot."

Hualing blushed and glared, "Pfft! Shameless!"

Cheng Su rolled her eyes, "You don’t believe it? I’m going to hold this newborn in a moment, hmph."

Hualing looked at her with a half-smile.

After a while, the baby was wrapped tightly in a towel and carried out, and Cheng Su really rushed forward, shouting, "Let me hold him first!"

Everyone was taken aback, then someone burst out laughing, "Let her hold him, may she have a big healthy son in the future too!"

The sister-in-law smiled and handed the baby to Cheng Su, saying, "Then go ahead, hold him, and may you also have a big healthy boy next year."

"Thank you for your kind words." Cheng Su took the baby, looking at his plump, fair face, and rosy little mouth. Her heart melted into a tender mess, but also felt a bit sour.

Hualing watched from the side, feeling secretly annoyed. To think that this person went right for it when she said she would hold the baby, and she actually managed to get ahead, how infuriating.

Cheng Su played with the baby a little, seeing Hualing longingly watching, she handed the baby over to her, "You hold him too!"

Everyone burst out laughing. Hualing, both angry and shy, yet firmly cradled the baby, looking at the baby’s smiling face, her heart softened, and a smile crept up the corners of her mouth.
