Han Yu's heart ached when he heard Su Wenyue say this, and he held her hand, "The child must be well, and you must also be well."
At that moment, a servant brought in the oxytocin. Han Yu took it and fed it to Su Wenyue. Shortly after, it took effect, and Su Wenyue's stomach began to hurt spasmodically. Han Yu called Doctor Lin into the room.
Doctor Lin took Su Wenyue's pulse, "The oxytocin is working, but the delivery is not that imminent. Take advantage of this time to eat something more, rest as much as possible, and conserve energy to prepare for the birth."
Su Wenyue nodded. She wasn't being delicate at this critical time, consuming a large bowl of the brown sugar eggs she hated most, in addition to a few other things Doctor Lin had instructed the kitchen to prepare. She hadn't rested long before the pain struck again, and the midwife had already arrived, telling Han Yu to wait outside.
