Su Xiaowan was in the delivery room, following the breathing method taught by Madam Leng Wang Xiaofang. Her older cousin, Song Yongyu, was by her side, continuously helping her remember.
For a girl who had never been married, accompanying Su Xiaowan in childbirth was quite grueling. Originally, Su Xiaowan's maternal aunts wanted Song Yongyu to leave, to be replaced by one of them.
However, Song Yongyu adamantly refused. She insisted on staying with Su Xiaowan. At this moment, she was scared too. But what she feared more was if something happened to Su Xiaowan. She only had this one cousin, and the thought of losing her made her feel as though she was about to collapse.
Therefore, she could not back down. She had to be there for Su Xiaowan. She was aware of her mother's and the doctors' concerns. For someone who had never been married nor given birth, experiencing such a scene could traumatize her.
