Chapter 707(1/2)
In the past few days, Lin Wan always felt her waist sore and her stomach was falling more and more obvious. Everyone knew that Lin Wan might give birth at any time. Therefore, the night outside Lin Wan's bedroom was no longer the only maids who had no childbearing experience, but also Madam Zhang or Madam Zhao.
Those who were on night outside on this day were Mrs. Zhao and the eldest maid Cherry.
When Lin Wan hurried back to the capital from Shu, she had only Siqin, a useful maid, so she asked the village to send some ten-year-old maids into the city and handed them to Madam Bai to select and train.
Before these little maids were sent to the city, they were carefully selected from the village.
However, the standard of choosing people in the village is quite different from that of Madam Bai's preparations for choosing people.
In addition to meeting the age requirements, the standard for choosing people in the village is diligence and cleanliness.
The girls were sent to Madam Bai, and half of them were wiped out by Madam Bai. In the end, only eight girls were left to train.
When the girl who was not selected was sent back to the village, Lin Wan gave each person a set of clothes and one tael of silver, which was very happy.
The eight little girls were selected by Madam Bai for training, but now looking back, the entire training process is really hard to describe.
These little girls have lived in the village for many years, needless to say that they are diligent, but they are just a piece of blank paper in terms of rules and serving people. It depends on how Madam Bai fills the qualified content on these white papers.
Madam Bai is strict and starts to train her words and deeds first.
At the beginning, you could hear crying sounds from the small yard where Madam Bai lives. Gradually, these little girls who even walked made Madam Bai frown and frowned.
Cherry is not the oldest among these maids, but the most outstanding one.
What this outstanding thing is naturally not Cherry's appearance, but only her ability to accept and attentive.
She was the first maid to be sent to Lin Wan to serve her.
At that time, there was only half a year left before Siqin got married.
In front of it, there was Madam Bai's careful training, and later Siqin's mentorship. After Siqin got married, Cherry took over Siqin's position and became the biggest maid among the latest batch of maids around Lin Wan.
The second one to go to the army in Madam Bai was Yang Tao.
According to Lin Wan's intention, she wanted to command Yang Tao to Wu, but Wu shook her head and refused.
Wu didn't think much about Lin Wan sending her maid to her. The reason why she refused was that she really felt that she was not short of people around her.
Although the Ye family has been in Beijing for more than ten years, Wu is still not used to the days when he is treated by big and small matters.
Wu was serving Madam Jin and Niangzi Qi, there were also little maids in the house who were responsible for serving tea and water, and several maids and maids in the yard who were responsible for cleaning. In Wu's opinion, it was enough.
Lin Wan knew Wu's personality and could figure out Wu's thoughts, so she didn't force it, so she simply let Yang Tao follow Cherry into her house to serve her.
Then, Lin Wan, the little maid who had left the army, no longer sent it to Wu, picked a little older coriander and sweet orange from it and went to Ye Qi's yard to serve him.
The remaining two were nine years old and ten years old. The nine years old was named Bi Tao and ten years old. The nine years old was named Mitao, so they asked them to serve Lin Wan's yard with Cherry and Yang Tao, but these two were the examples of second-class maids.
Cherry was not twelve years old when he arrived with Lin Wan, but now he is a fifteen-year-old girl and the most useful maid around Lin Wan.
However, compared with Niang Zhao and others, it is still incomparable. After all, the relationship is different, so you always have to retreat.
Mrs. Zhao is older and has to worry about things in her heart, so she is naturally more alert than Cherry.
When Lin Wan woke up from a nightmare, Mrs. Zhao was leaning on the couch with her ears erected and dozing off.
Although Lin Wan was not very disturbed, the abnormal noise still woke up the alert Mrs. Zhao.
"Madam, do you want to drink water?" Mrs. Zhao hurriedly got off the couch, grabbed her thick jacket and put it on her body, rolled her shoes and came to the door and asked softly.
Cherry was awakened when Miss Zhao got up. However, the age of fifteen was the most sleepy age, because she was just awakened and was obviously a little confused. It was not until Miss Zhao asked her that she hurriedly got up on the couch, and even forgot to put on her clothes and rushed to Zhao's side with shoes.
Just when Lin Wan in the middle gave an order, she went in with Miss Zhao to serve Lin Wan.
Inside, Lin Wan sat up from the bed with difficulty, covering her chest with a panic look on her face, gasping for breath. She had not yet come back to her senses from the nightmare just now.
Unexpectedly, he heard the sound of Cherry coming from behind. Mrs. Zhao looked back at Cherry, frowned, pointed to the direction of the couch and said silently to Cherry.
Cherry then realized that she had forgotten to put on the thick clothes outside in a hurry. She smiled at Miss Zhao with shame, ashamed and gratefully, and retreated to the couch to put on the thick clothes.
The night on the nine-day sky in the capital city is still a bit cold.
When Cherry retreated to the couch, Lin Wan's voice came from inside: "I'm fine, you guys can rest."
Mrs. Zhao came to Lin Wan when she was seven or eight years old. Although she left for a while because of her marriage, she was still the one who knew Lin Wan the best.
Lin Wan only said one sentence, and Miss Zhao heard some abnormalities from it.
Although Lin Wan asked them to rest, Mrs. Zhao was careless and paused for a moment and said, "If your wife can't sleep, let me come in and talk with you."
The situation I saw in the nightmare was too real. Ye Shen's scream seemed to be echoing in his ears. Lin Wan's heart seemed to be about to pop out of her chest, and it hurt so much.
She really can't sleep, but she doesn't want to affect others' rest.
Dongxue, also known as Miss Zhao, was arranged to stay at night with her, but the matter she was responsible for was not handed over to others, which means that Miss Zhao still has to be busy during the day.
Since Madam Zhao had already heard the strangeness in Lin Wan's voice, it was impossible for Lin Wan to persuade her to rest. She shook her cherry that was wearing clothes and came from the couch, and asked her to go back to rest, but she herself was still guarding the door.
Lin Wan's belly was too big. Even though she sat against the head of the bed, she couldn't sit still after a long time, so she planned to lie down again.
When she moved, Mrs. Zhao, who was guarding the door, heard the movement: "Madam..."
This time Lin Wan did not refuse: "Come in."
As soon as he finished speaking, the curtain moved and his eyes were blurred. Madam Zhao quickly appeared in front of Lin Wan: "Madam, should you get up at night or drink water?"
Lin Wan was awakened by a nightmare and had no intention of getting up at night. Now when Mrs. Zhao mentioned this, she felt that she had to go to the ear room to get rid of her hands.
Just as Mrs. Zhao wanted to go back to rest on the couch, she saw Mrs. Zhao enter the inner room, and there was no place to go back to rest. She also entered the inner room while buttoning the outer skirt.
Seeing that Lin Wan was about to get up at night, she and Mrs. Zhao helped Lin Wan up from above, intending to support Lin Wan from the left and right to go to the ear room.
Lin Wan froze as soon as she got up from the bed.
"What's wrong? Is there something wrong?" Lin Wan's physical abnormality immediately made Mrs. Zhao notice it, and she turned her head and looked at Lin Wan and asked.
"It seems that the water is broken." Lin Wan frowned slightly and wanted to look down, but unfortunately her belly was too big. She saved the ground she wanted to look at, so she had to look at Miss Zhao and said.
Although Lin Wan has given birth to two babies, it is the first time that this experience of heat flowing down between the two strands.
Fortunately, Lin Wan has a good understanding of the various situations that may occur before production. Although she is not very sure, she means that she has arrived.
"Is the water broken?" Mrs. Zhao said as she looked at Lin Wan's feet, and she was shocked when she saw it.
There was already a small stall of water on the ground where Lin Wan was standing, and it was indeed broken!
Cherry's eyes also looked to the ground, and his face turned pale with shock: "Broken, broken water, what should I do?"
"What a panic! I will help my wife back to the bed first!" Mrs. Zhao felt a little panic, but she had given birth to two children, and she also broke the water first when she gave birth to a child. With this experience, she insisted on calming herself and glared at the panicked Cherry.
Holding Lin Wan lying down on the bed again, Mrs. Zhao urged Cherry to call Madam Zhang and notify Wu by the way.
Lin Wan was also a little nervous when she suddenly broke the water. However, when she heard Mrs. Zhao's instructions to Cherry to invite Wu, she still stopped her: "I'm not in good health recently. Don't disturb me first. Let's report to me when it's dawn."
Mrs. Zhao looked at Lin Wan without saying anything, but just urged Cherry with her eyes.
Madam Zhang and Madam Bai, who soon received the news, had two midwives who were invited into the mansion two days ago and got up one after another to Jingsiyuan.
Madam Zhang and the two midwifes touched Lin Wan's pulse and stomach respectively, and asked Lin Wan how she felt at this moment. The three of them went to the side to discuss.
Although the water was broken first, Lin Wan's current situation was not easy to move too much, but she was not completely unable to move.
This is Lin Wan and Ye Shen's bedroom. Since Lin Wan is still able to move at the moment, she naturally cannot give birth in the bedroom.
As early as a month ago, Madam Zhang prepared a delivery room next door. After discussing it, the three of them allowed Lin Wan to move the delivery room next door.
In fact, at the beginning of the water break, Lin Wan also had the idea of asking Mrs. Zhao and Cherry to help her go to the delivery room. However, at that time, she was worried that walking around after the water break would affect the safety of the children in her stomach, so she let Mrs. Zhao and she lie down on the bed with her support.
Now that I heard that I was going to the delivery room, I had to ask if walking around would be harmful to the child in my stomach.
If it is not conducive to the child, it is not impossible to directly turn the bedroom into a delivery room. I believe Ye Shen will not care.
As long as Ye Shen doesn't care, even if the Ye family has other thoughts in their hearts, Lin Wan can't take care of so much.
Of course, Lin Wan believes that no one in the Ye family will care about this matter.
"Madam, don't worry, the delivery room is next door. This road will never affect the baby in the belly." It was not Madam Zhang who said this, but another midwife who called the Good Madam.
This good nanny is over fifty years old. It is said that she has received no more than 1,000 children. She is the most famous midwife in the capital.
When Mao Yanxia gave birth to twins, she wanted to invite her, but she was unable to invite her.
However, this good nanny has some connection with Cai. After learning that Lin Wan was pregnant with twins, Cai asked Luo to find the nanny with her famous post in advance to ask the nanny to take time to deliver Lin Wan.
After receiving the famous post from Cai, the good nanny did not agree at all.
Just asked Luo about the approximate time of Lin Wan's pregnancy, so he asked Luo to go back.
Mr. Luo, who had not received the accurate letter, thought there was no chance, but he could not force him to return home in a bad mood.
Cai asked about the process of meeting Luo and the good nanny but laughed.
Two days later, the good nanny sent someone to send a message saying that she had adjusted the half month from mid-September to early October.
So just after September 15th, Cai asked Luo to pick up the good nanny and send it to Ye's house.
The other midwife named Wu lives near Moxiang Street. Qian Feifei and Mao Yanxia both delivered the baby by this midwife surnamed Wu.
Although Wu Wenpo is so famous, he is also very famous in Moxiang Street.
Because of his experience of delivering twins for Qian Fei and Mao Yanxia, Wu was invited together this time.
Madam Zhang did not recognize Wu Wenpo, but knew the good madam.
