âOh? You know about this?â Niu Shuang turned around and said.
âI know a little. We have to think of a way to take care of it. Otherwise, it will be a disaster.â
âDonât make any random moves. Just watch from the side.â Niu Shuang said, âIâve been doing this for so many years. How could you know more than me?â
âGo on, then.â
One after another, another hour passed, but there were still no signs of labor.
However, the sowâs breathing had become rapid. Even her body was twitching as if she had been electrocuted.
This time, Niu Shuang was a little flustered. This was the first time he had seen such a situation.
âSecond Brother, I donât think she will make it.â
âDoctor Little Niu, can you think of another way? I spent more than 10,000 yuan to raise it. If it dies, it will be a huge loss.â
âItâs just bad luck that she is going to die. This is all we can do. Thereâs something wrong with this pig.â
âBuy five tubes of sodium chlorprosperenol, there should save her,â Lin Yi said.
âWhat is that?â Yao Meng asked.
âItâs a midwifery medicine. Go buy some from the townâs animal pharmacies.
They should sell it.â
âAlright, Iâll go buy it now.â
Lin Yi took out his car keys. âDrive my car. Itâll be faster.â
âNo need, no need. Your car is too good. Iâm afraid of touching it. I have a scooter at home, so I can just ride that.â
âAlright, come back soon.â Lin Yi said.
âIf you canât buy and bring it back in half an hour, just buy a knife.â
âHuh? Why should I buy a knife?â
âSo we can kill and eat the pig.â
âYou little brat.â
Lin Yiâs humor eased the tense atmosphere. Meanwhile, Wang Meng took his motorcycle key and rushed to the town.
Niu Shuang tried a few more times during this period of time, but it was still useless. Instead, it made the sowâs condition worse.
Ji Qingyan stood at the side, wiping away her tears.
âSister, why are you crying?â Zhao Lixia said. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âI think itâs a little pitiful,â Ji Qingyan said with a pout.
âNo need to pity it. If it canât give birth, weâll just slaughter it and have some delicious pork. You all can come over then, freshly slaughtered pork tastes amazing,â Liu Lichun chimed in with a laugh. âItâll become normal after you see it a few more times.â
Ji Qingyan pursed her lips and remained silent.
She felt that these people in front of her could not understand her feelings. From otherâs perspectives, Ji Qingyan still did not understand the hardships of
life.
Decades ago, during the famine when hunger was widespread, people resorted to extreme measures to survive.
Compared to those times, the present situation was already much better.
In less than 20 minutes, Yao Meng rushed in from outside.
âOne of the stores carried it.â
Yao Meng handed the medicine he bought to Lin Yi.
In addition, he also bought the injection needles.
âHurry up and try to save it. If it dies, all my hard work over the past year will be wasted.â
âDonât panic. Itâs not a big problem.â
Lin Yi took out three pills and diluted them. He drew the mixture into the syringe and injected it into the sow.
Soon, the medicine took effect. The frequency of the sowâs shivering dramatically decreased.
It also started grunting much louder than before.
Although they didnât know what had happened, the show seemed to be in a better state than before.
After a few minutes, Lin Yi reached into the birth canal.
âI touched it. Sheâll be fine now.â
Hearing this, the Yao family heaved a sigh of relief.
âSecond Brother, Third Brother, press down on the sowâs stomach. Otherwise, the pressure in the abdominal cavity will be too small. She wonât be able to give birth.â
Hearing Lin Yiâs order, the two of them lay on the ground and pressed their shoulders against the sowâs stomach as if they were crawling forward.
In doing so, they hoped that they could push the piglet out. âThis wonât do. You donât have enough strength,â Lin Yi said.
âStep on the stomach. â
âHuh? You want them to go up and step on it?â Ji Qingyan was stunned.
âWho would step on a child?â
âIf not, its life will be in danger. Itâs better to be guilty than dead.â
âHey, donât mess around. You could easily trample the piglet to death like this. This approach is really dangerous,â Niu Shuang said.
Lin Yi looked up at Niu Shuang. âIf you want to take over, come here. If not, shut up.â
After being scolded by Lin Yi, Niu Shuang stopped talking and his expression was extremely ugly.
âLittle Lin, are you sure it will be okay?â Yao Meng asked. This was the first time they had seen such an operation, and they were a little worried.
After all, Lin Yi was from the city. No one knew if he really had such ability or if he was just messing around. âItâs fine. Just do as I say. It will be fine.â
âAlright, Iâll listen to you.â
Yao Meng and Yao Bin were both country bumpkins, so they were naturally not as sentimental as Ji Qingyan.
They followed Lin Yiâs instructions and stepped on the sowâs stomach, trying to exert some pressure.
Ten minutes later, Lin Yi pulled his hand out.
He was holding a little piggy in his hand. It was fair and chubby, and looked very cute.
âIt came out!â
Zhao Lixia slapped her thigh excitedly. There was no problem now. She even started recording with Liu Chunli excitedly.
Lin Yi took out eight piglets one after another. There werenât many, but they werenât few either. It was a normal number of piglets.
There was still a certain gap between him and Niu Shuang, who had become a god in one birth.
Meanwhile, Niu Shuang looked embarrassed and even a little angry.
Because he felt that he had been violated.
After this incident, the title of the number one midwife in the Happiness
Village would be snatched away by Lin Yi.
âAlright, thereâs nothing else. You can handle the follow-up work. â âLittle Lin, thank you so much.â Yao Meng said.
âIâll kill two chickens later. The two of you can eat here tonight.â
âThen I wonât cook anything. Iâll just stay at your house.â
âWhat are you talking about? The offer will be the same in the future. If you ever come around again, drop by my place to eat. I just need to prepare two more pairs of chopsticks. Itâs no big deal.â
âAlright, Iâll go wash my hands. Theyâre too dirty,â Lin Yi said.
âIâll get you some water.â
The sow had given birth, and the rest of the work was left to Zhao Lixia and Liu Chunli. Meanwhile, the cooking was left to Lin Yi and the other two men.
Ji Qingyan, on the other hand, stood at the entrance of the storeroom, watching the eight piglets suck on their motherâs teats.
The more she looked at them, the more excited she became.
The more she looked at them, the more excited she became.
âSister, itâs just milk. Youâve been here for half an hour,â Zhao Lixia said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
âSecond Sister-in-law, donât you think these piglets are quite cute?â
âSister-in-law is almost 40 years old. Sheâs really not as leisurely and elegant as you young people.â Zhao Lixia said, â1 even find my sons annoying now, let alone these piglets.â
âBut donât you think this is very strange? Theyâve just been born and already know how to breastfeed. They donât even need to be taught.â
âItâs the same for humans. When you have a child in the future, as long as you put it against your chest, the child will know to feed. Itâs instinct.. â
