Xiaotianshi ngngda: “Young miss Jingxian has a good body. If she does her confinent well after delivery, she will recover quickly. The child’s status is hard to predict, but for an indomitable child that is born under such circumstances, I believe the heavens will be rciful towards this young life.”
After the retired gynaecologist said that, the entire live streaming room was free to speak again. The comnts gradually increased.
Shenshou Yangtuo: “I was perspiring the whole night, and dared not to leave the screen even for a second. I never knew the delivery process was painful... I just called by mother telling her I was sorry. I shouldn’t get angry at her over small matters.”
Zuiai Latiaole: “I will not insult the strear next ti. You are indeed a god-like figure.”
Anran Xiaohun: “After viewing the live stream for the entire night, I thought about it... Wei Jingxian is a brave young lady. I saw a woman’s noble spirit and perseverance through her. My girlfriend ca to mind, who is around the sa age as her. She got pregnant because we forgot to use birth control. At first, I thought we were both too young, and were were not anxious to have a child. We were considering aborting it tomorrow... Now I wish to apologize to her...”
Yingyang Kuaixian: “A new life has dawned. It is indeed a touching and joyous occasion. However, I am concerned about whether or not we can reward the strear so that she can buy items for disaster relief... In the face of disaster, the aspirations of the people make up the city. Every life saved is precious, even if a difference in dinsions separates us.”
The bullet screen was quickly flooded with many who were supportive, and the post was liked multiple tis.
Jiang Pengji also saw it. As she cleaned the baby and swaddled her to prevent her from catching a cold, she bit her lip.
Strear V: “I will try my best.”
After this was posted on the bullet screen, the rewards the System received increased exponentially. Previously, the rewards given were for praying for the baby’s well-being and celebrating her birth. Later, the rewards were for those amid the disaster.
Of course, so of the audience mbers ridiculed Jiang Pengji for taking advantage of the situation; they accused her of trying to gain personal wealth from donations given towards the disaster. After that post appeared on the bullet screen, it was shot down by others.
Yingyang Kuaixian: “Does your brain have a problem? I have been following this live streaming room for years, and I have never heard of the strear asking for rewards or other things. Do you think others are as shallow as you? It is impossible that the strear is such a person.”
Da Zhuangzhu Furen: “These are my final remarks: The call has been made. Humans anticipate it!”
Tudou Nurougaifan: “Keke. You must have watched many live streams with pretty and flirtatious sluts, right? Thus your assumption that others are motivated by money, and, if given money, one can do as they will. An earthquake occurred and many died. How dare you say such heartless words. Doesn’t your conscience hurt?”
Jiang Pengji initially was turned off and disgusted, but after she saw so many of them standing up for her, the discomfort in her heart vanished.
Based on that, she had completely burned bridges with the System. It was worth it!
Feng Jin and Wei Jingxian’s first born was a girl. Her face was wrinkled and red, and her features were likened to a monkey that just shed its skin. At present, Jiang Pengji felt the child had a gorgeous and friendly disposition.
She passed the child to Feng Jin and his wife, who looked intently at their child. “Go on and hold her. She is a pretty princess.”
“Thank you.” Feng Jin’s face was pale. When his child was born, he was nervous until he was breathless. Presently, he carried the fragile being in his arms, and his heart beca inexpressibly soft. “Lanting, please na this child.”
Wei Jingxian was able to move slowly, and she had regained so energy. She looked at her husband and then at Jiang Pengji. How could she not know in her heart? “Lanting, please help us na her.”
Jingxian smiled, her face pale. Her body was covered by a blanket, and a fire was set up by her side to dissipate the cold air in her body. She understood that if Jiang Pengji did not rush in to carry her to the delivery room, both mother and child would have been hit by the pillar that fell, and they would have been standing before the king of hell. She only delivered her child smoothly because of the person before them.
She wasn’t afraid to die, but when she thought of the possibility that her child might not have been born because of it, her heart ached with a sharp, stabbing pain.
Jiang Pengji heard the request of the husband and wife and was stunned for a while. “I am to give her a na?”
In the current era, for every household that had a newborn, the father had to wait on the street for the first person to pass by to na his child. The commoners needed a na for the child to bring them up, but that was the way of the average person. The nobles and aristocratic families did not think much of that.
Since Feng Jin and his wife requested, Jiang Pengji gave it so thought and said, “It is not suitable for Huaiyu’s family to na the child. Then, I will give her manly na––one that is sturdy. Her na shall be Changsheng. My wish is for her to live a peaceful life without worries for a long ti.”
“Changsheng? Very well. This shall be her na.” Feng Jin’s face finally had a smile. The child seed to sense it and made sucking motions with her mouth. The back of her head rested on his bosom.
Amid the conversation, the sky beca completely bright.
The servants that were alive cleaned the ruins silently. They had managed to survive, but many others were buried amidst the ruins, never to see daylight again.
Jiang Pengji opened the curtains and walked out of the makeshift delivery room. The midwife, who had sprained her back, was moaning in pain. She gave orders to the maids to boil chicken soup with a lot of herbs so that the lady in confinent could recover. When Jiang Pengji saw her, she imdiately got the maids to bring her a copper basin, filled with warm water, and a towel.
“Langjun, do you want to wash your face? Your servant will get the maidens to find the old master’s clothes––ones he’s never worn before––for you to change into, and then you can wash the wound on your back. If it is delayed and the temperature is warm, your wound may beco infected...”
The midwife observed Jiang Pengji carefully. She felt like she discovered a scary secret. It was too dark yesterday and the tremor from the ground ca suddenly. Thus, she did not rember the details. Now that it was dayti, however, she wanted to observe in Jiang Pengji in detail. She sohow felt that the young Langjun was weird.
She was, after all, a professional midwife. She had a pair of sharp eyes and could identify that Jiang Pengji’s body was sowhat strange.
After Jiang Pengji left the delivery room, the midwife suddenly had an enlightennt. Calm down... What if that Langjun was a female?
It was no wonder old master Feng didn’t mind if Liu Langjun helped his wife deliver!
Jiang Pengji saw the midwife’s expression, and she suddenly understood sothing. She used the cloth to wipe her face, washing away the tiredness from the night without sleep.
“I am fine. I will put on an overcoat to cover the scar,” Jiang Pengji replied, seeing the midwife’s awkward actions. She offered her apologies. “Yesterday’s situation was urgent. I am sorry I pushed you away and caused you to sprain your back... I pray that you can forgive .”
The midwife replied with an open heart, “It is nothing to sprain my back. You saved a life. I haven’t thanked you for saving my life.”
Jiang Pengji let her guard down ntally, only to realize a wave of pain in her back.
She moved her mouth gently. The injury was sustained after saving Wei Jingxian the day before.
It was fortunate that her entire body was unbelievably strong. If it was Liu Xi’s original body, the pillar that fell yesterday would have caused internal bleeding. If it were serious, it was possible that her white bones would have been visible from the wound on her back.
Currently, there was only a tear in her skin. That was considered a small wound to her.
She was unsure when the residual tremors would happen. Jiang Pengji got the servants to empty the storeroom that collapsed, to consolidate all the wooden items that were useful, to segregate the wild animal skins and cloths, and to sew them together to build a makeshift tent.
