"Dad, nothing will happen to Sister Sangsang, right?" Lin Caiqing asked quietly, standing next to Lin Baiyi.
The people on Manghuang Mountain had been notified, Lin Laogeng and others had also arrived, now standing in the yard waiting for news from inside. Everyone’s faces were filled with anxiety and concern.
"What could possibly happen to your Sister Sangsang." Lin Baiyi glared at his daughter.
Realizing she had misspoken, Lin Caiqing quickly closed her mouth. She was just worried. After all, Sangsang was just a young girl delivering Liu Yushui’s baby. Who knows what the villagers would twist the story into afterwards?
"Where’s the woman, the one giving birth?"
After a while, everyone was silently listening to the sounds coming from the room, but then heard a casual voice from the courtyard.
Upon hearing this voice, Lin Baiyi felt a wave of anger surge up to his forehead. He wished he could walk up, kick this shameless old woman out of the courtyard.
"Granny Bai, you’re here."
Upon seeing Granny Bai, a few women strained their tense faces into smiles and looked at her.
There was no helping it. The people of Ya Village couldn’t do without Granny Bai. She was the only midwife around. Sure, they could look elsewhere, but far water could not quench near thirst.
Even if Granny Bai was difficult, they didn’t want to offend her.
"Yes, I couldn’t relax, so I came over to check."
Granny Bai looked at the full yard of people who all turned their gazes on her, and couldn’t help but bask in her own importance.
"What’s the situation? Has the baby been born yet? Boy or girl?"
Lin Baiyi, looking at her insolent appearance, was filled with anger. He wanted to step forward but was held back by Yang Lin.
"Lin, what are you stopping me for?"
"Less trouble is better. Your wife and Sangsang are inside now. Leave this matter with her for later." Yang Lin muttered to Lin Baiyi in a low voice.
Lin Baiyi took a deep breath, but still huffed in annoyance.
"Laogeng, which midwife did you hire? Tell me?" Granny Bai saw Lin Laogeng sitting in a wheelchair and asked with a smile.
She wanted to see which midwife dared to deliver for Liu Yushui, the unclean girl. She would ruin that midwife’s reputation and take all her business!
"Is this midwife any good? Is she as skillful as me? Or should I go in and check?"
"No need to trouble you, Granny Bai."
Lin Laogeng gave her a cold glance and replied.
He had been here for a while and had heard from Lin Baiyi about Granny Bai’s refusal to come twice. This damn old woman was taking advantage of her old age.
"We didn’t hire any midwife. My wife just went in. In the future, Baiyi’s wife will also have children. My wife learning a little now is a good thing."
Granny Bai was taken aback at his words. The next moment, her face turned ugly.
It was actually Lu Qiubo herself who went to deliver Liu Yushui’s baby? Clan Chief Lin and the land officer were both here. She had come here because she heard that the land officer was also here.
Now, did Laogeng’s words imply that she forced Lu Qiubo to deliver Liu Yushui’s baby?
"This won’t do at all, let me go, I’ll go."
