Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space Chapter 1269: Saving Lives

Han Chunxue, feeling anxious about her daughter, kissed the child before entrusting the baby to Wang Xiaodan, Yuan Yikai's aunt. "I'll wait here for Lingzi. You take the child back to the ward first," she instructed.

Xinyan, noticing Yuan Yikai's persistent gaze fixed on the delivery room door, felt a flicker of unease. She turned to Han Chaohui and said, "You go with them to the ward to watch the child."

Han Chaohui seemed perplexed. "A little child doesn't require two people. I'll wait here for Lingzi to come out, just in case they need a hand."

Xinyan cast a sharp glance at him. "Just go when I tell you to. Before we return to the ward, you better take good care of my little nephew."

Seeing his younger sister's growing anxiety, Han Chaohui quickly understood the unspoken reason and raised his hands in mock surrender. "Okay, okay, okay, I get it. I'm going."

With her third brother heading off, Xinyan finally felt a sense of ease.

Not long after, the delivery room door creaked open once more. This time, however, it wasn't a nurse who emerged, but a doctor. "Family of Zhang Yuhua," the doctor announced.

A man waiting with them outside responded promptly, "Here, here. Has the baby been born?"

The doctor's words were grave. "The mother's condition is not good. The baby's position is wrong, and..."

Before the doctor could finish speaking, a young nurse rushed out from within. "Doctor Su, the mother is bleeding heavily! We must operate. Get the family to sign quickly!"

The man's face paled with panic. "My wife had a smooth delivery previously, why is there heavy bleeding now?"

A thought struck him, and he hurriedly inquired, "What about the child? Will the child be okay?"

The doctor's expression tightened, clearly displeased by his query. "The mother's condition is poor; it will definitely affect the child. Sign quickly; there's no time to delay."

At this pivotal moment, another figure emerged from the delivery room – it was none other than Shen Guqing.

Her gaze fell directly upon Xinyan. "Junior sister, I..."

With a single look, Xinyan grasped her senior sister's unspoken plea. "I understand."

Shen Guqing appeared helpless. She couldn't simply stand by and watch a tragedy unfold. All available methods had been attempted, and if the bleeding didn't cease, not only the child but even the mother might not survive.

The man then seemed to grasp the gravity of the situation. "Doctor, please save my wife. If, if there's really no other way, prioritize saving my wife first."

His words, "prioritize saving my wife," caused Xinyan to momentarily believe that despite his sharp tongue, this man possessed the commendable qualities of a husband.

As Xinyan prepared to enter, the members of the Han family waiting outside understood the reason. However, unwilling to cause further trouble for Xinyan, none of them spoke a word.

The anxious man at the door remained entirely consumed by his wife and child within the delivery room, barely registering anything else.

Xinyan swiftly disinfected herself and entered the delivery room. The mother was covered in blood, her situation dire.

The woman's eyelids grew heavy, and she weakly whispered, "Doctor, save the child."

Hearing the woman's words, Xinyan couldn't help but let out a sigh, deeply empathizing with the profound love of parents.

Even in the face of such peril, her thoughts were with the child within her womb.

Retrieving the silver needle box from her pocket, Xinyan reassured her, "Don't speak. Rest assured, the child and you will be fine."

As she readied her tools, Shen Guqing had already lifted the mother's gown.

The situation was critical. Xinyan swiftly inserted the silver needles into various vital acupuncture points.

A few moments later, a nurse exclaimed with palpable delight, "It's really working!"

After Xinyan withdrew the needles, the bleeding ceased not long after.

Once Xinyan confirmed that the mother's condition was stable, she carefully collected the silver needles.

Ideally, the needles shouldn't have been removed so quickly. However, given the baby's incorrect position, if it wasn't adjusted promptly, a Cesarean section would still be necessary.

Seizing the opportunity to do good, fate had clearly brought them together for a purpose.

Xinyan and Shen Guqing collaborated to adjust the baby's position within the mother's womb before stepping aside.

Since she was already present, it was no trouble to offer further assistance. Thus, Xinyan remained until the mother successfully delivered. While awaiting the birth, Xinyan ventured to check on her cousin behind the curtain.

Seeing that her cousin was unharmed, Xinyan arranged for someone to escort her out, concerned that the drama with the mother might frighten her.

Furthermore, to ease the worries of the family waiting outside, Xinyan personally escorted her to the door. "You accompany Lingzi back to the ward. I'll be there momentarily."

Upon returning to the delivery room, the expectant mother was clearly exhausted. She had visibly strained multiple times as the baby crowned, yet lacked the strength to complete the delivery.

The scene was agonizing for those watching.

Xinyan approached the weakened mother and, when no one was looking, discreetly slipped a self-made ginseng health pill into her mouth.
