388 Childbirth

Soujin and Jun Hua's Residence

Inside Soujin's workroom, there were two people inside, completely engrossed in their own world until Qin Shie broke the silent.

"You seem to read a lot of these books now," she pointed to one of the books on the table. The title of the book was 'Childbirth Difficulties'.

Soujin peered towards the book his mother pointed at. He smiled wryly at his mother remarks, "I'm just worried of her condition and the fact that I almost know nothing before this always make me worry."

"Childbirth is always hard for women," Qin Shie acknowledge that fact, "But I'm sure she is going to be alright when the time comes for her. Rather than worrying about her, shouldn't you deal with the matter of your grandfather-in-law breaking your grandfather's workroom?"

Soujin's face stiffened at the mention of that matter. Because he kicked out Jun Zhenxian and didn't allow him to bother the two of them, he decided to bother his grandfather instead. Just a few days before, he received the report that the two of them got into a small fight and some of the things inside the room were broken.

"Let them finish the matter themselves, I don't want to bother cleaning up after them again," Soujin said indignantly.

"You can say it that way," Qin Shie looked towards the window, "the time for childbirth will soon come for her. It might be today or a few days more."

Soujin frowned when Qin Shie reminded him about that. Come to think about it, he was completely engrossed in his work today that he hadn't met with her for hours. It would be better to check on her first and finish the work later.

Seeing her son cleaning up the table, Qin Shie smirked, "You want to see her again?"

"Mother, stop teasing me," Soujin said helplessly. Ever since he got married, his mother's tongue has become even sharper and continued to tease him. It seemed her mother was determined to make sure he can't retort since it was always the other way around in the past.

Qin Shie smiled, "It was just really fun to tease someone in love. Your grandfather did the same in the past too."

"I would prefer Mother didn't become more similar with him anymore," Soujin's face darkened.

Qin Shie laughed at Soujin's remark. She couldn't help but tease him since this young boy always seemed so composed in his action. It was only on the matter of Jun Hua did he show much more expressions that he rarely did. As a mother, it would be a lie if she said that she didn't want to see them.

She was about to say more things when a servant came in a hurry to their place. Seeing the panicked, worry, yet happy expression on this servant's face, Soujin felt his heart tighten.

"Your Highness, Princess Hua is giving birth."

"What?" Soujin has just talked about this with his mother, and it really did happen right now? Without caring about his appearance anymore, he rushed out from the room as fast as he could, making the servant nearly toppled out from the aftereffect of Soujin's prowess and speed that he showed.

Qin Shie was obviously stunned speechless at her son conduct. This was one of the rare occasions in which Soujin completely forgot about himself. Come to think about it, every time the other party lost his composure, it would be related to the little lass. Shaking her head, she quickly followed after her son.

When she arrived in front of the room, she could see the pale face Soujin. The servants around him were all trembling in fear because Soujin's face was just too scary. However, what came to her ear the next moment was the sound of a woman scream.

"Ah!"

Qin Shie first stunned to hear the sound, but come to understand that even someone like Jun Hua would feel pain upon childbirth. Still, for a former general to shout in pain at this time, could it be there was some complication?

"How long has it been since Hua'er is inside?" Qin Shie asked her son.

"This morning," Soujin answered. The servants told him that she felt her stomach hurt not long after she woke up this morning. Because he was busy with his work, he hadn't accompanied her this morning, so he didn't know.

"Don't worry too much, she will be fine. When mother was having you, it took me the entire night," Qin Shie consoled her son.

"They said that the position was not good, so they have to make it change," Nanglong Soujin replied with gritted teeth. He didn't want to lose his wife. If the Heaven dared to take his wife, he would surely curse the entire world!

Qin Shie took a seat on the chair, "The midwife mama would surely work hard to make the position right. It has been hours since morning, so they should finish soon."

Soujin nodded his head, yet his expression was still as serious as ever. His eyes were locked into the door to the delivery room as if he was determined to get in the moment the door was opened. Even after a long time, he can't hear any sound from the room anymore.

"Why is there no sound?"

"The pain won't be continuous," Qin Shie explained. Hadn't this man read the book himself? "It would come and go. If it's continuous, don't you think every woman would die at childbirth? Besides, do you forget that Jun Hua is a former general? I doubt she's going to scream every second."

Soujin couldn't hear the sound from Jun Hua for hours after that. All the servants outside the room tried their best to bury their head deeper in fear the prince would notice them. With the dark face Soujin had, there was simply no one dare to come near him.

"Has something happen?" He asked his mother.

"If something happens, there will be someone who came outside," Qin Shie explained. Although she did feel worried too, she still remembered those things from the time she gave birth to her son.

Soujin walked around the room for one round before sitting down again and stared at the door intently. It has been hours since Jun Hua stayed inside the delivery room for childbirth. Any longer and he feared that he won't be able to wait.

Looking at the ashen face Soujin, Qin Shie was about to comfort her son again when they hear the sound of a baby crying. Soujin nearly tumbled on his feet when he heard the sound. Thankfully, he still gained his composure as he would surely be a great joke if he did fall. A great general fell because he heard the sound of a baby crying, how laughable was that?

However, right now, he didn't have the heart to think about those things. He was feeling greatly relieved that everything was finally over.

Without waiting anymore, he quickly pushed the door to the delivery room open. The midwife mamas inside were all surprised to see the prince suddenly came in.

"Your Highness, you're not allowed to come here. It reeks the smell of blood…" the midwife mama tried to stop him, but her words stopped halfway at the sight of the other party glaring at him. The prince was indeed the scariest at things related to his wife.

The other midwife mama who held the baby smiled instead and said happily, "Congratulation Your Highness, Princess Hua has given birth to a healthy son."

Soujin simply nodded before turning his eyes towards the tired Jun Hua on the bed. Because she had been laboring for hours, she simply didn't have any strength left to do many things. She felt rather sleepy now that everything has finished.

"I want to see my son," Jun Hua said in a hoarse voice.

Soujin beckoned the midwife mama to hand him his son. The baby stopped crying soon after and fell asleep. Soujin held the baby in his arm carefully to show him to Jun Hua. The woman on the bed looked at her son and smiled, "He looked like you so much."

"Yeah," Soujin nodded his head, "If you're tired, let me take you to your room."

"That would be a good idea," Jun Hua yawned. Soujin gently handed his son to the midwife before helping Jun Hua to get up. In the end, he just simply carried the girl away from the room.

Qin Shie watched her son with an amused feeling. She waved her hand to call the midwife to show the baby. It only took her a glance to understand why Jun Hua said that the baby looked like Nanglong Soujin. Although the feature was similar to the man, there were many parts of them more similar to Jun Hua albeit still unclear because of the wrinkle.

She wondered about her grandson's face when the little fellow grew up. After a few seconds, she shook her head internally. Those future ladies in this kingdom would surely have it hard.
