Chapter 467: Two Sons and Daughters

Chapter 467

Zhao Midwife from the other side also went to check quickly, and then anxiously said, "You two, first take the children out, the second baby is coming soon."

Madam He and Old Lady Mo looked at He Zhiran and gave her an encouraging look before taking the children out.

The birth of the second baby was even smoother than the first one. He Zhiran had experience, and she was not as exhausted.

As soon as Zhao Midwife said to push, she cooperated with all her might.

This time, after pushing hard, the second baby fell to the ground crying.

Zhao Midwife excitedly said, "Congratulations, congratulations! The second child is a girl. Congratulations to you young couple on having both a son and a daughter!"

In the Great Shun Dynasty, the words dragon and phoenix were only allowed for the royal family. Ordinary people did not dare mention these two words, otherwise it would bring disaster.

He Zhiran lay quietly there to rest and heard the midwife say she had given birth to another girl. She was happy in her heart.

She had the mindset of modern people and did not have any special ideas about having a son or daughter.

In her heart, as long as the children were healthy, it did not matter whether they were male or female.

That was why when she had prenatal checkups at the clinic, she never intentionally looked at the gender of the child.

Even so, hearing that she had given birth to a pair of dragon and phoenix twins, she still felt pleasantly surprised. Yôur favorite stories at novelhall.com

Giving birth to two babies at once was already a blessing from heaven, and to have both a son and daughter was something that would make anyone happy.

However, after giving birth to the second child, she had used up all her energy. At this moment, she did not even have the strength to open her eyes to look at her daughter.

In her groggy state, she could feel Zhao Midwife helping her clean up, and Mo Jiuye was also at her side, using a handkerchief to wipe her face. She even seemed to feel a drop of warm tears landing on her cheek.

Mo Jiuye finally could not hold back his tears.

He witnessed the whole birthing process of his wife and understood the hardship and pain better than anyone.

He felt heartache for his wife having to endure so much pain alone to bear children for him.

Mo Jiuye had silently made a vow that in order not to let his wife get pregnant again, he would rather become a monk for life...

In fact, Mo Jiuye really was ignorant in this area.

He had not considered that the sisters-in-law at home were secretly given medicine by the Empress so they could not conceive, and the doctors at the clinic could also prescribe herbal soups for contraception. If they did not want to have children, it was not difficult.

"..."

Although the women did not speak loudly, Old Lady Mo was still afraid they would disturb He Zhiran's rest.

She quickly picked up the second baby and stood up, "All of you, go outside. Don't make noise here and disturb Ninth Sister's rest. If you want to see the second baby, go outside."

She realized that her daughters-in-law, like her, also doted on girls. If she did not let them see the baby immediately, they would keep causing a fuss.

Madam He held the older baby in her arms and watched as the group surrounded the second baby and left. Then she looked down at the older baby in her arms. How could he not be as precious anymore?

No, the older baby was also precious. It was just that her mother-in-law had given birth to so many sons and only one daughter, Mo Hanyue. Their family's girls were certainly treasured.

Thinking that the cute newborn grandson in her arms now faced possible neglect, Madam He inevitably felt worried for the child.

She held the older baby tighter and whispered, "Our older baby is the best. Grandma loves you."

The older baby still did not know that on the very first day after being born, his dear grandma had already imagined him as an neglected child...

Mo Jiuye also felt happy about having both a son and daughter.

However, seeing his wife's haggard appearance now, he had no mind to look at the twin babies.

He just silently accompanied her, unable to share her pain but at least able to feel more at ease.

After Zhao Midwife swiftly cleaned up He Zhiran, she left the room with a grin after giving Mo Jiuye some reminders.

This was the first time in her life she had successfully delivered twins and both were safe.

Just this point alone was enough for her to boast about for miles, making those midwives who competed with her jobs jealous to death.

Although it was warm outside, they were after all newborns.

Old Lady Mo had already taken the second baby into another room. The women were surrounding her to look at the baby.

"Mother, my little niece is so beautiful. Her eyebrows and eyes look exactly the same as Ninth Sister."

"My little niece will definitely grow up to be a beauty."

"Mother, can I hold my little niece too?"

"Mother, do you think my little niece is laughing?"
