Chapter 5: Chapters 5 to 7 - The Young Miss is a Rascal?

As the woman gave birth, it was as if one foot had already stepped into the gates of hell. Qin Liuxi listened to the commotion coming from the delivery room and closed her eyes.

Qi Huang glanced at the hourglass. After a night of turmoil, dawn was almost breaking. Basin after basin of bloody water was carried out, but no cry of a newborn was heard. Instead, the commotion inside grew quieter.

"Miss, it seems..."

Qin Liuxi had already stood up. Before she could take a step, a person stumbled out, none other than her eldest aunt, Qin Meiniang, who had been dismissed from the Qin family due to their troubles. Her eyes were blackened, and her face was pale.

"Can't, can't give birth. Where, where is the doctor?" Qin Meiniang's lips were cracked and bleeding, and she was at a loss.

Qin Liuxi quickly walked in. The midwife, seeing her, looked as if she had seen a savior and said urgently, "Young Miss, the lady has fainted."

Qin's grandmother, her body swaying, bit her tongue again and said to Qin Liuxi, "What are you doing here, a young lady? Get out quickly and bring the doctor to give your third aunt an acupuncture treatment."

Wang Shi, who had not expected Qin Liuxi to be so bold, said wearily, "Xier, the delivery room is full of blood and filth. Listen to your grandmother and go out first."

Qin Liuxi ignored the blood smell and walked to the birthing bed. She took Gu Shi's wrist, felt it, and then let it go. Seeing the earrings she was wearing, she took them off: "These are Third Aunt's? I'll take them as payment."

Everyone was stunned to see her put the earrings in her pocket.

Qin's grandmother's anger rose, and she pointed at her: "You, you—!"

She gasped for breath, looking as if she might faint at any moment. Which of her daughters would act so irresponsibly and without regard for the situation?

"Xier, quickly apologize to your grandmother." Wang Shi, seeing how angry the grandmother was, though surprised by Qin Liuxi's behavior, did not want to add fuel to the fire. She said to Qin's grandmother, "Mother, the child must be scared silly. Please forgive her!"

"Eldest Sister, I don't think so. It looks like she's just shallow." Xie Shi, gloating, mocked.

"Second Sister-in-law!"

Qin Liuxi, annoyed by the noise, glanced at a few people and said, "Stop shouting. Except for the midwife, all of you wait outside if you want to see Third Aunt give birth safely."

Everyone was stunned. What did she mean?

Xie Shi laughed, thinking she must be a bit silly now!

"Qi Huang, light the incense, and prepare the talisman."

"Yes."

Qin Liuxi had already taken a box from the chest, opened it, and inside were various sizes of gold needles. Seeing that everyone was still standing there, she said, "Aren't you going out?"

Her tone was cold, showing no respect for the elders.

Qin's grandmother sternly rebuked, "What are you going to do? This is not the time for you to play around. Get out quickly and bring the doctor."

"There is no doctor."

Qin's grandmother was taken aback. What?

"She can only give birth safely if I help her." Qin Liuxi already had a gold needle in her hand.

Qin's grandmother, looking at the golden needle shining in the candlelight, felt a jolt in her heart: "You, you want to give your third aunt an acupuncture treatment?"

"Xier, do you know medicine?" Wang Shi and the others were somewhat disbelieving. They had never heard of this.

"Rascal, what medicine do you know? This is sheer nonsense!" Qin's grandmother was furious, blocking Qin Liuxi, her face full of disbelief.

How old is this girl? She has always been raised in the old house. When did she learn medicine?

This is just playing with her third aunt and her child!

Qin Liuxi's patience was gone. Don't believe her?

Qin Liuxi's recent reading has been under strict control, unable to see comments, unable to see ramblings, and not even displayed, making her feel very down!

No matter what, I am here!
