"You are about to give birth. No matter how busy you are, you have to come over and have a look." Lin Qiuniang pressed her down on the chair and did not allow her to move around: "Your grandparents are fine. They said they would come to visit you three after you give birth."

."

Qin Xiaoxiao felt relieved, patted her belly and said, "The baby is already in the basin, and the midwife said she will give birth in another seven or eight days."

Lin Qiuniang did the math and was a little worried: "It's only been nine months, isn't it a bit early?"

Qin Xiaoxiao said: "It's not early. The midwife said that I am the first child and I am pregnant with twins. It is normal to be ten or twenty days early. Besides, if they stay in the belly for one more day, they will grow one more circle. When the time comes, they will give birth.

It’s even more painful to get up.”

Lin Qiuniang said hurriedly: "Then it is better to give birth in advance. Your father and I are living in the capital for a while, and we will go back after you give birth."

Qin Xiaoxiao hugged her arm and said coquettishly: "Just stay in the house. I can't go out to play for a while. I'm almost bored."

Lin Qiuniang smiled and said, "The courtyard is not far from here. Your father and I just come here every day."

Qin Xiaoxiao said eagerly: "No matter how close we are, it would be better to live in the house."

Qin Shan stroked her head and laughed: "You are already a mother, and you are still so clinging to your parents, so you are not afraid of other people's jokes."

Qin Xiaoxiao said confidently: "I am a grandmother, but I am also a child in front of you. It is not normal for children to cling to their parents. Who would laugh at me!"

Qin Shan and Lin Qiuniang looked at her, the smiles in their eyes were showing their indulgence: "Okay, okay, no one will laugh at you. We will live in the house to save you from having to accuse yourself in front of your grandparents."

Qin Xiaoxiao cried out: "Look at what you said, am I this kind of person? My grandparents don't believe it either!"

The couple shook their heads repeatedly, saying there was nothing they could do against her.

The midwife's prediction was very accurate. One morning seven days later, Qin Xiaoxiao was about to get up and let Jingheng put on her shoes, when suddenly her leg twitched and kicked him in the calf.

"Are you having cramps again?" Jing Heng thought she had cramps in her legs, and was about to get up and massage her legs when he heard her say in panic: "It hurts, my stomach hurts!"

This was the first time she complained of stomachache after becoming pregnant. Jing Heng's expression immediately changed and he loudly called Mingyue to come in.

The next moment Mingyue rushed in and hurriedly took Qin Xiaoxiao's pulse: "Madam, the pulse is disordered and the fetus is moving abnormally. It's time to give birth. Please call the midwife now!"

When she heard that she was about to give birth and there was no other problem, Jing Heng's expression did not improve. He stared closely at her belly and could clearly see that the children were moving more and more frequently.

After Mingyue went out, the other maids also knew that Madam was about to give birth. Without waiting for Jingheng's instructions, they got busy in an orderly manner: urging the people in the kitchen to clean the pots and boil water, reporting the news to Princess Protector and the Qinshan couple, and going to the two imperial doctors Liu Liao.

The government invites them to come over...

"Don't be afraid, the midwife will be here soon." Jing Heng comforted Qin Xiaoxiao who was in pain and sweating profusely, put on her clothes and hurriedly carried her to the delivery room that had been arranged in advance next door.

"Li, brother Li, don't worry, I, I can bear it!" Qin Xiaoxiao's face was pale. It was the first time she knew she was so afraid of pain, as if her whole body was about to be split open.

Seeing her biting her lower lip unconsciously, Jingheng's face looked paler than hers. In a panic, he put his hand to her lips, fearing that she would bite him.

Qin Xiaoxiao actually laughed when she saw his silly look: "There are clean handkerchiefs in the cabinet next to the bed. I don't want to bite your dirty hands."

This time Jingheng did not take the opportunity to bully her, he opened the cabinet and took out the handkerchief and asked her to bite it.

Qin Xiaoxiao shook his head. The pain was not to this level yet. He wanted to talk to him to divert his attention: "Brother Li, if there are two boys or two girls this time, the older one will have your last name, and the younger one will have your last name."

My last name is; if there is a boy and a girl, the boy will take your last name, and the girl will take my last name."

This arrangement was something she had carefully considered. Jing Heng has a title, and if the sea trade goes well in the future, he will be the first to contribute. This title may be inherited for one generation, and heirs will need to inherit it in the future. The eldest son is the legitimate heir.

If the younger brother takes his surname, then the older brother who is disqualified from inheriting because he takes his mother's surname will probably have a grudge against him. Rather than end up having a brotherly feud, it is better to eliminate this possibility from the beginning.

"Whatever you say is whatever you say. I'll listen to you." Jing Heng wiped the cold sweat on her forehead. Her own back was also wet, and her hands were shaking uncontrollably. She couldn't hold the handkerchief several times.

Seeing him like this, Qin Xiaoxiao wanted to laugh at him again, but before she could speak, a sharp pain hit her, and she couldn't help but cry out in pain: "Ah——"
