My Apprenticeship to Uncle Jiu: I Was a Warlord in the Republic of China

Chapter 187 Ren Tingting Gives Birth to a Child

At worst we can choose a hilltop for them to build a temple. As for what their own selling points are, they will have to figure it out on their own.

After sending them to Daxian Mountain for internship, Jiang Li no longer asked about them and went straight back to the Jiang family.

For a whole month, Jiang Li hardly went out. Apart from accompanying Ren Tingting, he practiced on his own. Since his uncle was not there last time, he did not get the Essence Pill.

Afterwards, he took the time to go there again and took back the Essence Pills he had accumulated during this period. Now he has finished eating all the pills, and his cultivation has also been raised to the fifth level of Human Master.

The Xuanjia Gong has also improved slightly, and it is only one step away from achieving a small success.

Speaking of the realm of magic, it is divided into four levels, namely: entry, minor success, major success, and perfection.

Take the Golden Light Mantra as an example. For those Taoist soldiers who have not yet entered the door, there is nothing magical about it when they use it. It just has a passive effect of calming the mind.

As for those who have great magical powers and have reached a high level of comprehension of the Golden Light Mantra, when they use this kind of Taoist magic, all evil spirits will be able to scare them away and ghosts and gods will be unable to invade them.

However, Jiang Li was not in a hurry at this time. Cultivation is actually the art of ink painting, and it is even more so in this Dharma Ending Age. Cultivation step by step, although slower, is better because it has a solid foundation.

Besides, he has the help of elixirs, so he is much faster than others.

As far as he knew, in the past few decades, there were only a handful of people in the entire Maoshan who could cultivate to the fifth level of human master at the age of 23.

That evening, Jiang Li, as usual, walked in the yard with Ren Tingting after dinner.

But Ren Tingting suddenly screamed, and stood there motionless, holding Jiang Li's arms tightly with both hands, looking at Jiang Li at a loss, "Brother Li, I...I think I'm going to give birth!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Li hurriedly checked under Ren Tingting's feet. He saw a large puddle of water on the ground, obviously her amniotic fluid had broken.

Seeing this, he immediately shouted, "Ah San, Ah San, quickly bring me the midwife, my wife is about to give birth!"

When Asan heard Jiang Li calling him, he immediately ran into the yard from outside, took a look at the situation and immediately ran to the backyard.

It turned out that as early as half a month ago, Wang Chunhua calculated the time and found that Ren Tingting's due date was very close, so she simply brought the best midwife from the nearby villages to her home, and now she is of great use.

Watching Asan running away, Jiang Li immediately picked up Ren Tingting and walked into the room. Hearing Jiang Li's shouting, Wang Chunhua immediately dropped what she was doing and ran quickly to the yard.

After confirming with Jiang Li that her water had indeed broken, she asked Jiang Li to take her daughter-in-law to the room to wait, and then immediately began to order the servants to boil hot water and prepare towels, scissors and a wooden basin.

Just a short while after carrying Ren Tingting back to the room, Asan came to the door with the midwife named Li, and Wang Chunhua also came with servants, carrying hot water, scissors and towels.

"County Magistrate Jiang, please go out quickly so we can help your wife deliver the baby!" Midwife Li said anxiously.

She had to be anxious. The Jiang family was powerful. If she delayed and the county magistrate's eldest son and daughter were harmed, they would skin her alive.

Jiang Li frowned slightly when he heard this, but when he thought that this was the Republic of China and men were not allowed to enter the delivery room, he just went with the flow, kissed Ren Tingting on the forehead, and waited outside the door with trepidation.

This wait lasted for three hours. Just when Jiang Li had no idea how many times he had walked around the door, he suddenly heard the loud cry of a baby.

As soon as he heard the sound, he immediately went forward and opened the door, and saw the midwife holding a dried child covered in mucus and some blood, and washing it in warm water.

When Wang Chunhua saw that her son actually opened the door, she immediately stepped forward to block him and pushed him out.

"Mom, what are you doing? I'm going to see my wife and kids, please get out of the way!"

Wang Chunhua knew her son was worried, but she explained anxiously, "Son, you can't go in now. Tingting is weak now and can't stand the slightest bit of wind. Otherwise, she will get sick and it will be bad!"

"Just wait outside now and don't cause any trouble for me. I will take good care of Tingting, don't worry!"

Having said that, she walked back into the room and closed the door.

Since nothing unexpected happened, the child was born safely. Jiang Li stopped pacing at this moment and just stood outside the door, grinning foolishly.

After a while, Wang Chunhua came out holding the little one, "God bless, mother and child are safe."

"Look, this is your son, plump and healthy!"

Jiang Li heard this and quickly took the little guy. He saw that he had just been born and his eyes were not open yet. There was not much hair on his head, but his body had many wrinkles. "Mom, why is this little guy so ugly? He is not round at all!"

"What nonsense are you talking about? Aren't all kids like this? You used to be like this too, with even more wrinkles than him!" Wang Chunhua lectured him angrily.

Jiang Li was so happy now. He was not unhappy at all even after being taught a lesson. He still listened with a smile on his face, but his eyes were fixed on the closed door.

At this time, the midwife in the room shouted, "County Magistrate Jiang, we have packed up everything, you can come in!"

Hearing this, he quickly walked into the house holding his son, and in two or three steps he reached the bedside and squatted down, "Tingting, you have worked hard. Come and see our son. Mom said he is plump and healthy."

Ren Tingting opened her heavy eyelids and looked at Jiang Li and the little one in his arms. But as soon as she saw him, her smile froze, "Brother Li, why does our son look like this?"

Jiang Li smiled and comforted her, "Tingting, don't worry, all newborn babies are like this. You and I were the same when we were young. He will become plump after a while!"

Wang Rentingting heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this, "That's good, that's good."

Then she seemed to have thought of something, "Brother Li, have you named our son yet?"

Jiang Li smiled and said, "I thought about this question a few months ago. The boy will be named Jiang Xiao and the girl will be named Jiang Wei."

Ren Tingting murmured to herself when she heard this, "Jiang Xiao, Dawn of Light, what a great name!"

As he said this, he looked at the little guy beside him with a loving face, but at this time he was crying loudly, which made Jiang Li and Ren Tingting panic.

At this time, the midwife standing by said, "County Magistrate Jiang, I think the little boy is hungry. Why don't you let Madam feed the child!"

The two of them breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. It was their first time being parents and they were so nervous that they didn't even react to such a thing.

To ease the embarrassment, Wang Chunhua picked up her grandson, then asked Jiang Li to pick up Ren Tingting, and asked the maid to change the bed sheets and quilts, and finally took them out of the room.

Seeing that everyone had left, Jiang Li undressed Ren Tingting, revealing her breasts that had become fuller due to breastfeeding.
