After Being Kidnapped by the Crown Prince - Chapter 194
Chapter 194
Just now in the medicine shop, Hong Ling saw that this old man was packing his medicine box slowly and leisurely, he was not at all in a rush. Most likely, the person he was going to check up on had nothing serious going on. There was even a carriage to pick him up at the door of the medicine shop, that family was probably rich or noble, they did not lack this one doctor.
“Besides, this is an emergency, and these are two lives.”
Matters had come to this point, the old man couldn’t be bothered to argue any longer with her, lest he be angered to death by her.
Hong Ling was about to push the old man into the room when a scream came from inside.
She had never heard Ming Zhu scream so pitifully, and it hurt her just to hear it.
“You quickly go in!”
At this moment, the doctor was in a dilemma, when women were in labor, if not for times when their life was at risk, it really was not very convenient for him to go in.
When the midwife heard Hong Ling’s voice, she knew she had brought the doctor over. She pressed on Ming Zhu’s knees while turning around and saying through the door, “Wait for now, the baby will be born soon.”
Fortunately, although this miss Ming’s body wasn’t in a good condition, but the baby was in the right position.
The midwife, very patient, said to Ming Zhu: “Miss, use some more force.”
Ming Zhu was panting, already numb from the pain, no longer conscious. She was now holding on with her last breath.
She didn’t know how long it lasted, when Ming Zhu felt like she was dying, she finally heard a soft cry.
The midwife wiped the little girl’s body with warm water, wrapped the child in a swaddle, and held the baby in front of Ming Zhu’s eyes. She said: “Miss, look, it’s a girl, she looks just like you.”
Ming Zhu took one glance before fainting, no longer able to resist.
The midwife put the child in the cradle, took water to clean Ming Zhu’s body, washed off the blood stains on her body, and also changed the sheets.
After doing these things, she came out of the room, looked at Hong Ling and said, “The miss is all right.” ”
She then smiled and said to the doctor: “We have troubled you.”
After saying this, she gave Hong Ling a look, to make her pay him silver.
The doctor had come for nothing, but he was not angry in his heart, it was better that the delivery went well rather than not well, he also didn’t take the silver, and just glared at Hong Ling. Pointing at her, he said: “Don’t be so rude next time!”
When Hong Ling was in a good mood, she wouldn’t argue with people, so she just stood in place and took his advice.
The courtyard suddenly became lively, for after getting the doctor’s apprentice complaint, the chief of the policemen arrived at the door.
Hong Ling recognized with one glance that this chief of the policemen was the man who had come to knock on their door to check their household registry the last time, and she strangely felt a lack of confidence, so she lowered her head without thinking.
The chief of the policemen also recognized her and, squinting his eyes, his gaze circled between the three of them, “What’s going on here?”
Hong Ling was afraid that the midwife would leak any information, so she spoke preemptively, “My sister gave birth.”
“Didn’t your sister go back with your brother-in-law to the countryside?”
“My sister loves the rich and despises the poor! She was having a hard time in the countryside so she came back.”
“Is that so?” The chief of the policemen was half-convinced half-suspicious, “Then what happened with you kidnapping the doctor?”
“It’s all a misunderstanding!”
The courtyard was in a mess, and Hong Ling, after using every method of begging and persuasion she could, finally convinced the chief of the policemen to believe that what she was saying was the truth, and that she was innocent.
In the end, Hong Ling also took out from her treasure box the candies that she herself couldn’t bear to eat because she liked them too much, and gave each policeman a few pieces, saying that it was to celebrate the happy event.
The chief of the policemen was curious about her sister, whose face he had never seen, but he was not in a hurry, he could always see her in the future.
In the middle of the night, the group of people finally left.
The doctor was also tired, but he couldn’t rest yet. He still had to go to the residence of the distinguished patient to check his pulse and prescribe medicine.
At this hour, Zhao Zhi most of the time couldn’t fall asleep, and the servants, though they saw that the candles in his study were still lit, no one dared to go disturb him.
But a girl who was not very clear in her brain, had intentions which were not righteous.
She was a maid selected and given to Zhao Zhi by Song Huaiqing, she knew that this master’s identity was not ordinary, and she looked for several opportunities to get close to him.
Today, she was specially wearing a dress tight at the waist, which exposed a large part of her collarbone. Her posture was swaying, charming and seductive, as she brought over the tea. Her neck and ears were red, and she poured tea for the man shyly, “Gongzi, here’s your tea.”
