Counterattack of the Cannon Fodder Chambermaid

Untitled Part 110

After wiping her body down, they helped her put on an undershirt and innerwear, leaving her bottom completely bare. After all that, Xiao Hua felt much more comfortable, and the pain was no longer bad enough to affect her breathing.

"Does madam want to eat anything? Eat a little more, otherwise you won't get a chance later." Nana He spoke by Xiao Hua's ear.

Therefore, Xiao Hua was fed a bowl of swallow's nest porridge by Ding Xiang.

The delivery process this time not only broadened Xiao Hua's experience, but also Nana He's as well.

She had only seen babies get delivered while lying down, and had never seen someone doing it while sitting, standing or squatting.

Although the methods were a little strange and seemed quite rough on the person, the effects were also clear. She had estimated that since it was Xiao Hua's first pregnancy, and also since they were twins, it would take at least a day. Unexpectedly, Xiao Hua only took around two hours.

She finally understood why this bed needed to be constructed in such a weird way. Matron Xu's proud expression was also not without any foundation.

"This old women really has some tricks up her sleeves!" Nana He said while wiping off her sweat.

"You said it!"

The first was a baby boy. After the first one came out, the second one came out not fifteen minutes later. It was a baby girl.

They held the babies by their feet, and with a light pat they heard the sound of crying. Matron Xu swiftly soaked them in warm water for a quick cleaning before wrapping them up in a bundle.

"Congratulations madam, it's the birth of a dragon and phoenix." Chun Cao's face was filled with smiles.

Xiao Hua only let out a breath in relief after hearing the babies cry. She finally revealed a weary smile.

Nana He and Matron Xu each carried one and opened the door to report the good news.

"Congratulations highness. Both mother and children are safe and sound. It's a dragon and phoenix pair."

The Jing Prince had already crushed several tea saucers, and seeing the door open he had rushed over.

The pink bundle contained two little faces. They were red and tender, their skin soft as though the slightest pinch would break it. The little faces were wrinkled and their eye bags were swollen. Their small mouths moved subconsciously.

The Jing Prince only took a glance before entering the room.

Nana He said urgently on the side: "Highness, men aren't allowed in the delivery room."

It wasn't clear if the Jing Prince had heard her or not, but his footsteps didn't stop.

"Alright, alright. His highness desperately wants to see the madam." Eunuch Fu stood watching impatiently on the side, "Hurry and let me hold them."

"Scram, the babies are still young and can't be exposed to the elements. Didn't you see that we haven't stepped outside?"

Eunuch Fu impatiently fidgeted before Nana He turned back and said: "Come inside if you want to hold them."

Only then did Eunuch Fu's face wrinkle into a smile before following them inside.

Hearing people come in, Xiao Hua opened her eyes.

"Why is highness in here? You aren't supposed to enter the delivery room."

The Jing Prince stopped her from sitting up, "This humble prince is here to see you."
