Chapter 550: Chapter 550: Quadruplets!_1

Another midwife, upon hearing this, hurried over to look and, seeing that there truly was another one, exclaimed, ”Great joy, triplets in one birth, something unseen before, what good fortune!”

Xiao Changyi merely paused for a moment, then accepted it. The day Imperial Physician Jiang first mentioned his wife’s multiple pulses, he had prepared himself for the possibility that his wife might give birth to several children.

Outside, Doctor Jiang: ”This is really...”

Outside, Meng Lanqing: ”...” Sir, you are quite amazing, having triplets in one go.

Inside, An Jing took longer than Xiao Changyi to snap out of her daze. She truly hadn’t expected to carry more than two; even though Doctor Jiang had mentioned the possibility, she never took it seriously. Yet, it turned out to be more than two indeed.

But then, An Jing was quickly pulled back to reality by the intense pain.

”Another boy! Congratulations to Xiao Bio Gong, congratulations, Mrs. An has given birth to three sons in one go!” The midwife was overjoyed. She had never delivered so many children at once before. And all of them were boys.

Outside, Meng Lanqing: ”...” Triplets, all sons... Sir, you don’t do things by halves; when you do, it’s extraordinary!

An Jing, now devoid of strength, still felt a heaviness in her belly and, enduring the pain, she said, ”It feels like I’m not done giving birth... there’s still something in my stomach... ”

Xiao Changyi: ”...”

Both midwives were taken aback, then hurriedly handed the children to the two older women for bathing and dressing before checking again.

Upon checking, they exclaimed in unison, ”There’s another one!”

”Mrs. An, you must push hard! Quick! Quick!” one midwife urged anxiously.

But An Jing was too weak, and said in extreme frailty, ”I have no strength left...”

Seeing that An Jing looked like she was about to pass out, Xiao Changyi immediately shouted towards the door, ”Doctor Jiang, my wife has no strength left!”

Imperial Physician Jiang quickly responded, ”Put a slice of the prepared ginseng in her mouth to suck on!”

That was Millennium Ginseng!

He had heard it was a gift from the Emperor!

Upon hearing Doctor Jiang’s words, Xiao Changyi immediately did as instructed, placing a slice of ginseng in An Jing’s mouth.

An Jing, with the ginseng in her mouth, felt the immense restorative power of the Millennium Ginseng, which was extraordinarily effective at replenishing energy. It at least allowed An Jing to hang on long enough to give birth to the fourth child before losing consciousness.

”Oh my, unbelievable, another boy, quadruplets, all sons...” The midwife, looking at the last child she delivered, was so excited she didn’t know what to say.

Outside, Meng Lanqing: ”...” Sir, I am utterly in awe of you!

Xiao Changyi didn’t care what others thought, nor did he pay attention to his four newborn sons, as he hurried to check on An Jing’s condition. Seeing that An Jing had only fainted from exhaustion and her body seemed to have no serious issues, he finally breathed a huge sigh of relief.

After making sure that An Jing was well looked after and the mosquito netting was lowered, Xiao Changyi went to see his four newborn sons.

The four children, each looking different, were easily distinguishable even without any markers to identify them.

The eldest resembled him closely, the second child only had eyes like his, the third child’s nose and mouth were similar to his, and the fourth did not resemble him at all; among the four children, it was the youngest that most resembled his wife.

All four children were crying, but the eldest, the second, and the third cried very loudly, while the youngest’s cries were much softer, his breathing unsteady, and his body particularly small and thin, indicating a weaker constitution.

”Doctor Jiang!” Seeing this, Xiao Changyi immediately called Doctor Jiang inside. ”Quick, take a look at this child.”
