140,

"I am the best midwife in the village!"

Not only was she scolded by the old woman, but her next words delivered a perfect blow to Mr. Cyclone.

Eileen helped the old woman up so she could stand.

"It was because I noticed a problem that I called for a doctor, but..."

The old woman's body had not fully recovered from just waking up from the dizziness.

"I-I'll go again..."

"Mr. Cyclone!! She-she woke up!!"

Little Dragon shouted, interrupting everyone's thoughts.

"Wife!!!"

Gudas heard and immediately ran over.

Even if he bumped into something, he ran like he couldn't feel anything, just to get to his beloved as soon as possible.

"Wake up?"

Although Mr. Cyclone did not lose his composure like Gudas, the feeling of nervousness gradually increased.

Mr. Cyclone Theodore, a farmer's son, had never read a book in his life. Most of his knowledge came from what he had seen and heard in his daily life.

What is the process of giving birth like?

How could Mr. Cyclone know?

Is it very painful? Because the baby will come out of that hole.

Will there be bleeding? The baby has to pass through that hole, so will there be bleeding?

Simple things connect with the simplest knowledge, forming an analysis of the process of giving birth.

But "waking up"...

Does it hurt so much that they faint?

Is fainting normal?

Various unclear things appeared, and what was originally only partially understood instantly gave birth to countless questions.

And now, a person who claimed to be the best at delivering babies stepped forward, and the old woman said it was a "problem".

Even though he only partially understood, Mr. Cyclone began to feel nervous.

Eileen supported the old woman upstairs, and Mr. Cyclone followed.

"The blood is still flowing..."

As soon as they went upstairs, Little Dragon uttered a very frightening phrase.

"Wife..."

The scene that they had witnessed yesterday, now, looking at it again, had become a bloody battlefield.

Underneath his wife, a small river made of blood appeared.

Gudas tightly held his wife's hand, showing a worried expression that Mr. Cyclone had never seen before.

On the other side, the person who was best at delivering babies came to the bedside and stood amidst the pool of blood.

"The amniotic fluid...has already drained..."

The old woman knelt in front of Gudas's wife's opening.

"Amniotic fluid?"

"What, what will happen then?"

Although Mr. Cyclone was curious about unknown words, Eileen asked.

"The amniotic fluid is used to surround and protect the baby... if, if it's drained, it will cause hypoxia..."

Although the old woman did not shed tears, Mr. Cyclone saw despair in her eyes.

"It's the end now, hurry! Hurry and push with all your strength! My daughter-in-law, quickly give birth to my granddaughter!!"

Gudas's wife, who had just woken up, exerted herself again, screaming in a deafening voice, expressing her pain.

However, when the old woman went to fetch hot water, the screams stopped.

Gudas's wife fainted once again.

"In, in the middle of a person, quickly pinch her Hegu point, it's to make her wake up!!"

Hearing the old woman's command, Gudas immediately reacted.

The whole process unfolded before Mr. Cyclone's eyes. Fragmented words formed an approximate understanding of the situation.

"She, she can't wake up..."

Gudas's hand trembled.

"Use more force, pinch harder!!"

The old woman shouted again.

"Mom!! I have used up all my strength!!!"

Silence. Mr. Cyclone didn't know what to do, he just watched.

Eileen and Little Dragon were clueless too. Eileen trembled, and Little Dragon held onto Gudas's wife's hand.

In this moment, everyone was looking at the only person with experience in delivering babies.

"There's, there's no other way... Cut, cut her abdomen open, and forcibly bring out the granddaughter..."

"Hello! Hello..."

"No, no you can't! My, my wife... "

Even though Grandma was shaking all over, she stepped forward and said,

"Well, what do you suggest? The amniotic fluid has broken, if it doesn't come out soon, your daughter will suffocate and die!"

Once again, looking at the woman he loved the most, Gudas fell into despair.
