In the Edo period, special props for childbirth were not usually used. Instead, the tatami in the delivery room was lifted up and a "large patchwork" of thatch or tattered towels was used to pad it underneath. The mother then leaned on a mat made of bundles of straw.

Seat production.

The doctor said before that because the conception times were similar, the delivery times of the two girls were also very similar.

Although she had been mentally prepared, Qingdeng Wanwan did not expect that their delivery times would be so close—on the same day!

The first person to show symptoms of labor was Sanako.

She had nothing to do today, so she was sitting in the courtyard admiring the scenery.

Out of nowhere, she suddenly felt pain in her abdomen, which became increasingly painful.

But in the blink of an eye, unspeakable severe pain hit his nerves like a tsunami.

The blood in her cheeks dissipated instantly, large beads of sweat appeared on her forehead, and she kept sucking in cold air.

When the maids who were always by his side saw this, they immediately understood what was going on and immediately carried Sanako to the delivery room.

Immediately afterwards, Ah Wu, who was taking a nap on the bed, also began to feel unbearable abdominal pain.

In this way, the two girls were both sent to the delivery room.

Qingdeng had made all preparations for this day.

Not only did a clean and tidy delivery room be built early, but a large number of experienced midwives were also hired with a large sum of money.

The midwife is also called the mother-in-law, the mother-in-law, and the mother-in-law is usually the mother-in-law, the mother's biological mother or an experienced neighbor woman.

But after the Edo period, maternity evolved into a profession.

At this time, the mother was not only responsible for delivering babies, but also served as a "nakajo-ryu" female doctor responsible for abortions.

You need a place and a place, you need a midwife and you need a midwife, you need medicine and you need medicine, you need supplements and supplements.

Qingdeng can do everything he can.

All he could do next was wait outside the delivery room and wait silently.

…

…

At this time when the two girls were fighting desperately, outside the delivery room——

Chiba Jutaro was running around in circles with an anxious face, like an ant on a hot pot.

Suddenly, he stopped and turned to Qingdeng aside and asked:

"Hmm...Tachibana-kun, what time is it now?!"

Qingdeng took out his pocket watch and took a look.

"15:55."

"Tsk...it's been so long, why is there still no movement..."

He said and started spinning around again.

Seeing this, Chiba Sadakichi who was not far away couldn't help but scolded:

"Jutaro, please be patient! Stop spinning around in circles. You're making me upset. Sit down quickly!"

The Chiba Sadaikichi in this scene is no longer as elegant as before, and his expression and tone are a bit more anxious.

"yes……"

Chiba Jutaro did not dare to disobey his father, so he complied and sat obediently next to Qingto.

But before long, his legs were shaking repeatedly like a wagtail's tail, and the shaking was getting worse.

After only a moment, he couldn't help but stand up again and started spinning again.

"Tachibana-kun, what time is it now?"

Qingdeng took out his pocket watch again:

"15:58."

“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh”

"Jutaro, stop yelling and sit down for me!"

"yes……"

At this moment, a large number of people gathered outside the delivery room.

After learning that the two girls were giving birth, Qingteng and the director rushed to the delivery room as quickly as possible.

As soon as they arrived, they saw the second daughter's family members arriving first.

A few days ago, after learning that A Wu was about to give birth, Kinoshita Lin rushed over in a hurry.

In addition to Boss Kiryu, the companions also included Shichihei Asai and Katsuroku Shimada, two old men who also watched Ama grow up.

Compared with the young families of the "Zanako family" and the old ladies and grandfathers of the "Awu family", they are much calmer.

I saw them standing aside silently, waiting quietly.

However, their anxious expressions, as well as the small movements of clenching their fists from time to time, revealed their true mood - they were far from as calm as they appeared on the surface.

Of course, in terms of level of tension, no one at the scene could compare with Qingdeng.

Qingdeng stood stiffly, his expression tense, and his eyes stared straight ahead at the delivery room without blinking.

The general secretary stayed by his side, gently holding his hand, and although he did not speak a word, he comforted Qingden with small gestures.

Before rushing to the delivery room, Aomori temporarily left all matters to Hijikata Toshizo to take care of.

He has made up his mind - unless there is an extreme situation such as "Changzhou Attack", he will never leave here even half a step!

As we all know, childbirth is often accompanied by dangers.

Gynecology was not very developed during the Edo period.

During this period, not to mention the amniotic fluid embolism that even modern gynecologists talk about, even some common symptoms are enough to kill the mother and the baby in her belly.

To put it bluntly, these well-known midwives that Qingdeng took great pains to invite are actually not very reliable.

Let’s call them professional. They have extremely rich experience in delivering babies. They have delivered hundreds to hundreds of babies with their own hands.

It can be said that they are not professional. The delivery skills they have mastered are all based on empirical medicine and are not supported by specific and professional theoretical knowledge.

Outdated equipment and outdated gynecological medicine... many women died due to dystocia or postpartum hemorrhage.

Qingdeng doesn’t understand medicine at all, let alone gynecology.

Nowadays, gynecology in the West is not very developed.

Therefore, he could only use all the medical knowledge he knew - such as keeping the delivery room clean, maintaining ventilation, and avoiding the breeding of bacteria - to do his best to create a safe and hygienic delivery environment for his two daughters.

With the blessing of the talent "Perceiver of Wind +4", he kept hearing various noises in the delivery room.

"Madam! Try harder! Don't relax! We're almost there!"

The cry of the midwives.

"Bring hot water quickly! And a clean cloth! Act quickly!"

The hurried footsteps of the serving maids.

"Uh-huh...! Uh-huh...!"

"Ha ha ha ha……"

The two women screamed and moaned in pain.

Listening to these sounds, even if he couldn't see it with his own eyes, Qingdeng could vaguely imagine this scene:

The two women, who were covered in sweat, tightly grasped the force hanging from the ceiling. Although they were exhausted both physically and mentally, they still gritted their teeth and squeezed out the last bit of strength left in their bodies.

Whenever he thought of this, Qingdeng couldn't help but clench his fists, his mind was in a state of confusion, "dong", "dong" his heart was beating wildly as if it would pop out of his throat at any time and violently hit his eardrums.

The director, who was holding his hand, felt Qingden's nervousness and uneasiness.

She silently held it back so that her body temperature could be transferred to her, and she did her best to provide comfort.

Finally...after an unknown amount of time passed——

"Whoa-! Whoa-whoa-!"

A loud cry overwhelmed all the sounds inside and outside the delivery room.

Suddenly, Qingdeng, the General Secretary... everyone outside the delivery room were stunned.

In the next breath, they all raised their eyes and stared at the door of the delivery room.

Excitement, anticipation, excitement...all kinds of emotions emerged in their cheeks.

Coincidentally, in just a few moments, a new cry came——

"Whoa-! Whoa-whoa-whoa-!"

The two cries merged with each other, loudly announcing the arrival of two new lives.
To be continued...
