Chapter 584 Production

Another half month passed, and Du Mingxian's pregnancy reached nine months. According to her previous life's calculations in weeks, she was now thirty-seven weeks pregnant and could give birth at any time.

She seemed to only then remember something and asked her third aunt for something.

"I'm about to give birth. If you don't prepare some baby supplies for me, you should at least prepare some cloth for me. I can prepare it myself."

Her aunt rolled her eyes at her. "I heard you had prepared this all along. Now you're coming to me asking for things. You just want to steal those fabrics, don't you?"

Du Mingxian rolled her eyes. "How could that be? I wouldn't be greedy for just a little bit of cloth."

“You’ve already prepared some yourself, why are you asking us for more? Don’t be so greedy.”

"So what? Anyway, you're all after my unborn child. Preparing some things for the child will make you higher-ups even happier."

Auntie San suddenly realized that what she said made sense, but something still felt off. "Okay, I'll prepare one for you."

At Du Mingxian's insistence, her third aunt gave her a set of quilts and other items, which were exactly the same as Da Hua's. The family bought the same fabric, and the styles were all the same.

Du Mingxian finally breathed a sigh of relief after receiving these items.

After that, whenever she had free time, she would wander around the village and take a stroll to that forbidden area. Every time she went to the forbidden area, there were people guarding it, so she had no way to get through.

When she was a little over thirty-eight weeks pregnant, she was just about to go out for a walk when Da Hua looked down at her belly with a displeased expression.

Du Mingxian stopped walking out. "What's wrong? Are you going into labor?"

Da Hua rolled her eyes at her, then looked at Du Mingxian's belly with a hint of disdain in her eyes, "Look at your small belly, and then look at mine, I might have two babies in my belly."

Du Mingxian didn't respond to her words. Da Hua was obviously overdoing it with supplements and wasn't exercising much, so she was probably gaining weight on herself.

"You didn't look well just now, are you about to give birth?"

"No, it'll be in the next few days, but my stomach has been tightening more frequently these past two days, so I guess I'm about to give birth."

"Then I wish you a smooth delivery."

Du Mingxian went out, feeling somewhat dazed. She was prepared, but she knew she couldn't give birth alone. After thinking it over, she went to find Hu Zi's mother.

Tiger's mother has more worries now that both of her children have been sent away. These past two days, she has been able to get out of bed with difficulty and has to keep moving around to prepare food and drink.

When Du Mingxian arrived, Tiger's mother was quite happy. "Why are you here? Is something the matter?"

"Yes," Du Mingxian said directly, "You've given birth before, and I need you to help me deliver my baby."

Tiger's mother was startled and very frightened. "But I have never delivered a baby before. I... I might not be able to do it."

"You have to do it, whether you like it or not. There's no other way."

Du Mingxian couldn't think of any other suitable candidates. Actually, she could give birth herself in the space, but she was afraid that something might happen and she would faint, which would be troublesome.

Seeing Du Mingxian's firm tone, Tiger's mother could only bite the bullet and say, "I can cooperate with you, but... but I really don't know how."

"Just prepare a few things. I'll bring some things over this afternoon. You also need to tidy up this room."

"it is good."

Du Mingxian went out for a stroll, and when she went to Hu Zi's house again, she brought new scissors, alcohol, and a cloth that she had washed long ago, as well as a swaddle blanket for the baby.

In the afternoon, she began to increase her activity level, even jogging when she had nothing to do. By evening, she felt very uncomfortable in her stomach, and the Braxton Hicks contractions became more and more frequent.

She entered the space and ate the soup and medicine that Ling Silang had prepared for her. After drinking the medicine, her uterine contractions became more and more frequent, but they were not regular at all, within the space.

When it hurts, just bear it; when it doesn't hurt, eat something as soon as possible.

It wasn't until after 10 p.m. that she finished getting ready and left the space, then quickly went to Tiger's house.

Tiger's mother hadn't slept; the lights were on in the room, and hot water had been boiled long ago. She was waiting on the side when she saw Du Mingxian appear covered in sweat. She was quite surprised, "Are you about to give birth?"

"Yes."

Tiger's mother helped Du Mingxian to bed. Du Mingxian asked her to lower the bed curtains and took out a rechargeable energy-saving light bulb, which she asked Tiger's mother to hang on the ceiling.

Tiger's mother had never seen such a bright light in her life, and she was immediately shocked, but she didn't slow down at all and quickly hung the light up.

Du Mingxian lay down, enduring the pain without making a sound. The pain was getting faster and faster, the frequency of the contractions was increasing, each one was more painful than the last, and the duration was getting shorter and shorter.

Feeling that it was about right, she whispered to Tiger's mother, "Take a look, can you see the child's head now?"

Tiger's mother, having given birth herself, looked down and was pleasantly surprised. "Yes, I can see the baby's head!"

Du Mingxian breathed a sigh of relief. She pushed hard when the contractions were particularly painful and stopped when the pain subsided. She kept asking Hu Zi's mother about the situation. Soon, she felt a release under her body and many things came out of her body.

Tiger's mother whispered with delight, "She gave birth! She gave birth!"

Du Mingxian was very tired, but she could only force herself to continue, "Go and get me some hot water."

"okay."

After Tiger's mother left, Du Mingxian quickly carried the child into the space. She patted the child's feet first, and the child's crying sounded in the space. Fortunately, the child only cried twice and then stopped.

Du Mingxian hurriedly came out again, and heard Hu Zi's mother walk in anxiously and say, "Why didn't I hear the child crying?"

"She cried, but softly," she explained calmly, adding that she genuinely didn't know what to do with the baby's umbilical cord.

She knew how to push during childbirth because she overheard a new mother sharing her experience with another pregnant woman while doing a mission in her past life.

"That's fine, that's fine."

Fortunately, Tiger's mother knew how to handle things. She scalded the scissors with boiling water, cleaned the baby's umbilical cord, and quickly wiped the baby clean and wrapped him up.

Du Mingxian felt very tired. She glanced at the time; it was four in the morning.

She wanted to sleep, but she didn't feel comfortable leaving the child with Tiger's mother.

She couldn't sleep soundly here either, so she forced herself to get out of bed, wrapped herself up tightly, and then took the child in one arm.

"Are you leaving now?"

"Okay." Du Mingxian nodded gently. "Put all the things I brought here together now, and I'll take them all with me."

"okay."

Tiger's mother was quick; she gathered all the things that Shan Fan and Du Mingxian had brought together and handed them to her, saying, "How about I take you there?"

"No need, I can go back by myself. We didn't see each other tonight."

"Don't worry, I know."

Du Mingxian didn't say anything more. Anyway, she had taken Niu Niu away, and Hu Zi's mother should know what to do. However, when she reached the door, she still mentioned, "Niu Niu is doing well."
