Chapter 172 Safe Production
She was fully focused throughout the entire process, striving for precision in every movement, not daring to make the slightest mistake.
After two hours of intense operation, the operation finally entered the final stage of suturing.
When the last stitch was carefully completed, Chen Xi breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly took off his mask, took out a small bottle of precious spiritual spring water from his arms, and drank it all in one gulp to quickly restore the physical strength consumed by the long operation.
Alone, Chen Xi completed this difficult operation under the dim candlelight. Sweat soaked her clothes and her brows were full of fatigue.
The moment she pushed open the door, she seemed to be temporarily pulled away from the battle in a world, and was greeted by the anxious and chaotic atmosphere outside the clinic.
Outside the door, the afterglow of the setting sun shone on the bluestone slabs. The doctor from the clinic and a nervous-looking coachman were pacing back and forth. Their eyes were focused the moment Chen Xi appeared.
"What's the situation?" The doctor's voice was filled with an urgency that was hard to conceal. His hands were unconsciously intertwined, revealing his inner anxiety.
"What happened to my wife?" The coachman's voice trembled slightly, and tears flashed in his eyes.
Chen Xi's tone was calm and warm: "Relax, Madam, everything is fine. Because they are twins, the children were a little weak when they were born, but after I nourished them with precious spiritual spring water, they are now healthier and more lively than ordinary newborns."
In fact, when the two little lives first arrived, their breath was weak and their skin was abnormally pale.
Chen Xi carefully took care of them with spiritual spring water containing the power of nature, which made their little faces gradually turn healthy and their breathing became steady and strong.
The coachman's gratitude was beyond words. He kept saying thank you and almost fell to his knees. Chen Xi just supported him gently, but he couldn't help but wonder why the other relatives of this family had not shown up at such an important moment.
She noticed that the woman's clothes were of good quality and she was obviously not an unappreciated person in the family.
"The family hasn't arrived yet? The child has been born safely, but as a husband, he is not here. How can this be justified?" As a woman, Chen Xi felt the same way, with a barely perceptible indignation in her tone.
The coachman quickly explained: "It will be soon. I have sent someone to inform the owner of the house as soon as possible. He should be here soon."
Chen Xi didn't say anything more after hearing this, but her brows were still furrowed. She asked the coachman to wait outside for a while, and she tiptoed back into the house, being careful not to let the doctor in the clinic see the scene inside the house.
Inside the house, the mother who had just experienced the test of life and death was immersed in a dream with a peaceful face, as if she was meeting her child in her dream.
Time passed quietly. About two quarters of an hour later, the woman on the bed slowly opened her eyes and murmured, "My child, my child—"
Chen Xi's gentle voice sounded immediately: "You are awake, the children are all healthy, you can rest assured."
The woman's gaze gradually focused and turned to Chen Xi beside her. She vaguely understood everything she had experienced.
"You are the female doctor who performed my caesarean section!" Her voice was full of gratitude and admiration.
A hint of shyness appeared on Chen Xi's face. She would rather do things quietly than accept such direct praise.
"Come, look at your two babies, a boy and a girl. They are truly a symbol of good luck." Chen Xi gently placed the two little lives wrapped in soft blankets next to their mother.
Although the two little guys cried incessantly when they were born, they soon calmed down under the nourishment of the spiritual spring water. Their round eyes curiously explored this new world, and occasionally they made a few childish babbling sounds.
The woman turned her head with difficulty and left a passionate kiss on the cheeks of both children, with tears glistening in the corners of her eyes.
These two little lives were the miracle she had gained by gambled her own life. She vowed to spend her entire life protecting them and giving them the deepest love.
At this moment, there were hurried footsteps and noisy conversations outside the door. A young man dressed in gorgeous clothes but covered in dust hurried in. There was both anxiety and guilt in his eyes.
"Where is Yu'er?" He almost rushed to the coachman, his voice filled with anxiety.
The coachman quickly replied: "Sir, the lady is in the house, and the baby has been born safely."
Upon hearing this, the young master immediately took two steps at a time and ran straight to the closed door, preparing to push it open and enter.
The door hinge turned slightly, making a slight creaking sound, and the door opened.
Chen Xi stood at the door and reminded softly: "You have been traveling all the way and you are covered in dust. For the safety of adults and children, you should clean yourself up before coming in to visit."
The young man was stunned when he heard this, but then he came to his senses and quickly found a place to wash and change his clothes. He tidied up his appearance before returning.
Inside the house, the woman's eyes, full of maternal love, fell tenderly on her two children. When she saw the young man coming in, tears instantly welled up in her eyes.
"Brother Cheng, you're here." She wanted to get up to greet him, but he gently pushed her back onto the bed.
"Yu'er, it's my fault. I'm late. This is all my fault."
He was filled with remorse, knowing that his wife was pregnant with twins and should have been more careful to take care of her, but he let her go alone to pray, just in case something unexpected happened...
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little scared. Fortunately, he met Chen Xi, who had superb medical skills, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
"Doctor, thank you for saving my wife and children. No matter what help you need, please just tell me. I will do my best as long as I can." The young man's words were full of sincerity and gratitude.
Chen Xi responded frankly, without any coyness: "Three lives, three hundred taels of silver is not too much, right?"
She looked at the young man's attire and judged that he was not an ordinary person.
"It should be given." The young master went out and gave instructions. Soon, a thick stack of banknotes was respectfully presented.
Doctor, this is three thousand taels, keep it.”
The amount was so huge that even Chen Xi, who was used to seeing the ups and downs of life, was surprised.
"Isn't it too much?" She shook her head gently, her slender fingers not touching the edge of the thick banknote.
"It's not that much. The safety of my wife and children requires more than just three thousand taels." The other party's tone was firm. Chen Xi felt the sincerity and finally slowly accepted the banknote, with a trace of warmth in his heart.
"My wife and I have property in the capital. If you need help, just let me know." In addition to the banknote, the young man added a promise in a gentle voice.
Chen Xi pursed her lips, her eyes wandering, without commenting, but secretly remembered this friendship in her heart.
"Brother Cheng, you scared me." The woman at the side opened her red lips slightly, her voice as gentle as the chirping of an oriole, with a hint of blame and a hint of joke.
"Doctor, could you tell me your name? You look very young, about eighteen?" She asked curiously, her eyes sparkling with admiration for Chen Xi's young medical skills.
