Chapter 336: This Is Not My Baby

In fact, Shi Qingxue wanted to enter the room, too, yet she was afraid that so many people would affect Dong Hui.

After Dong Hui shrieked again, Shi Qingxue couldn’t control herself anymore but rushed in with a big stride.

“Mother, what’s wrong with you?”

As soon as Shi Qingxue asked, she was stunned.

It was because the scene in the room was beyond her expectation, and even Shi Baoning who came in behind her was shocked.

Their mother who wanted to give up her life in order to protect the baby pushed the midwife hard and shouted in a harsh voice, “Monster. Monster! Take it away. Take it away now. This is not my baby. This is a monster.”

Shi Junhe sat on the bedside, and his face turned terrible and pale. He stared at the baby in the midwife’s arms.

He didn’t rebuke Dong Hui when she pushed the midwife away. He just held her and winked at the midwife.

The midwife sensibly took the baby away and went back to the corner, curling up.

“What happened?”

Shi Qingxue was confused, while Dong Hui was emotional, still shouting crazily. Shi Junhe had to comfort her and didn’t have time to explain.

Shi Qingxue could do nothing but walk to the corner and wanted to see her brother.

The midwife raised her hand and covered the swaddling clothes in advance, advising hesitantly, “My Lady, don’t look at it.”

Shi Qingxue furrowed her arch eyebrows more deeply and didn’t know why she couldn’t see her brother.

“It doesn’t matter. Remove your hand. I will have a look.”

The midwife had no choice but to withdraw her hand.

Shi Qingxue leaned forward and finally saw the baby in the swaddling clothes clearly.

Her pupils enlarged in an instant, and she glared at the swaddling clothes, unable to speak.

The midwife thought that Shi Qingxue was scared by the “monster” in swaddling clothes, so she reached out her hand to cover the baby again, saying in a low voice, “My Lady, you’d better step back, in case you are frightened.”

Shi Qingxue blinked and didn’t believe what she had seen.

In fact, she just saw a little head, which was pointed with wrinkles all over the face. There was messy fetal hair on his head, and he looked like an ordinary newborn baby.

He was ugly yet not unacceptable.

However, it was weird that there was a birthmark on his face spreading from his left forehead, and it almost covered half of his left face. It was black and disgusting.

He was really like a monster.

Shi Qingxue had never seen such a big and horrible birthmark of a person, and she was really scared for a moment.

However, the midwife’s actions made her uncomfortable.

Shi Qingxue reached out her hand to stop the midwife and block hers. “Don’t cover him. I will look at him again.”

This time she took a deep breath and then opened her eyes to look at the baby again.

Nobody knew whether it was because of the poison or lack of nutrition. In Duke Shi’s mansion, the latter was almost impossible. This baby was quite thin, and there was no flesh on his face. The five sense organs were together, and the face was smaller than her palm. Moreover, with that black birthmark, he looked so scary.

When he grew up, it must be better.

Shi Qingxue thought with uncertainty and frowned.

The midwife thought that Shi Qingxue felt disgusted with this newborn baby. After all, the mother’s attitude was obvious. The midwife was afraid that she would be implicated, so she hurriedly said, “I will take the baby away first, in case that he distains your eyes, My Lady…”

As soon as she finished the words, she kept silent because Shi Qingxue glared at her.

Shi Qingxue furrowed her brows deeply, but she didn’t rebuke this midwife as the latter came from the imperial palace specially to deliver the baby for Dong Hui. She just stressed with displeasure, “He is my brother.”

The midwife instantly realized that she had said something wrong, so she admitted her fault. “I was brainless to say that. Please forgive me, My Lady.”

Shi Qingxue was not in the mood to bother about the midwife. She turned to the little baby again.

The baby was still asleep, and he closed his eyes. His eyes, nose and mouth were wrinkled, and he looked ugly at a glance, yet thinking that he was her brother and related to her by blood, Shi Qingxue had feelings beyond expression.

When she looked at the baby’s ugly birthmark, it seemed not so offensive to the eye. Especially he opened the little mouth from time to time, which made Qingxue’s heart soft.

He was so lovely.

Shi Qingxue looked at the midwife with expectancy and couldn’t help but ask in a low voice, “Can I hold him?”

The midwife looked hesitant.

Although it appeared that this young lady didn’t repel this baby but liked him, obviously she didn’t have experience in holding a baby. If she made him fall, it would be troublesome.

However, the midwife didn’t hesitate for long because Dong Hui screamed sadly all of a sudden somehow, and her voice got louder and louder. She just said that her belly hurt.

The servant who served her surprisingly found that the lower part of Dong Hui’s body started to bleed again.

Shen Luo walked forward and checked her pulse. Then he looked serious again. “There is one more baby in Madam’s womb. Prepare to deliver it.”

After he ordered, all the midwives were on the alert and rushed to Dong Hui’s bed, surrounding her.

Somebody fed her ginseng soup and some of them called others, in a busy state.

Shi Junhe was unwilling to leave the delivery room. He just stepped aside and comforted his wife nervously yet steadily. “Hui, don’t be afraid. I will stay here with you.”

The midwife who held the baby couldn’t calm down. She glanced at Shi Qingxue and gritted her teeth, putting the baby in her arms as if throwing a hot potato. Then she said casually, “My Lady, please take good care of the heir…young master.”

After saying that, she quickly ran to the bed.

This time, all people seemed more nervous and alert, concentrating on delivering Dong Hui’s baby.

Nobody paid attention to Shi Qingxue who stood in the corner and the baby in her arms.

All people knew that even though Shi Junhe had once called him little heir just now, this disabled “monster” with an ugly face would never be Duke Shi’s heir.

Duke Shi’s family or any noble family couldn’t bear such a humiliation.

All people pinned their hopes on the other baby in Dong Hui’s womb and wished that it was a boy, too. Then Duke Shi’s heir could be decided.

Dong Hui’s second baby was born smoothly. In less than fifteen minutes, a cry resounded in the delivery room, which made everybody heave a sigh of relief.

Dong Hui was still conscious. Her first reaction was to see the baby covered with blood before it was washed. She shouted anxiously, “Bring it to me. Let me see it.”

The midwife who held the baby knew what Dong Hui wanted to see and walked to her, regardless of her dirty hands.

Dong Hui leaned backward because of the strong smell of blood, yet she controlled herself soon and sat up, trying her best to look at the baby.

Fortunately, this baby’s face was fair-skinned and clean with no birthmark, and it looked chubby and adorable.

Dong Hui finally sighed with relief and then looked down.

She looked happy at once and hurriedly grabbed Shi Junhe’s hand, shouting in surprise, “It’s a son. This is my son!”

Shi Junhe naturally saw it, too, and his tense face finally softened a little.

He grabbed Dong Hui’s hand and replied with a smile, “Yes, it’s a son, and he is healthy. There is nothing wrong with him. Just set your mind at ease.”

Hearing that, Dong Hui relaxed and then her head tilted. She sank into a coma.

Shi Junhe was so scared that he started to call Shen Luo.

Shen Luo told him that Dong Hui fainted because she finally relaxed after she consumed a lot of energy when she gave birth to the babies. She could recover as long as she rested for a while.

“Great. Great.” Shi Junhe heaved a sigh of relief and then told people to clean up the delivery room and take care of the babies, while he stayed with Dong Hui all the time.

After seeing the breathtaking process of giving birth to two babies and being scared by the first son’s scary face, Shi Junhe was really tired. He didn’t notice that his two daughters had entered the delivery room.

Shi Qingxue and Shi Baoning looked at each other and both decided not to disturb their parents.

Shi Baoning had also seen the horrible birthmark on the first brother’s face, and she felt scared, so she spontaneously took care of the second brother with the midwife.

Qingxue held the first little brother cautiously and followed Shen Luo. “Doctor Shen, can my brother be cured?”

Shen Luo walked out of the delivery room quickly without a stop but still couldn’t stop Shi Qingxue who chased him.

He had to stand still and looked back at Shi Qingxue’s nervous and expectant eyes, sighing helplessly.

“What…What’s wrong?” Shi Qingxue’s heart beat fast as she heard his sigh.

Shen Luo had no choice but to tell her frankly, “The thing on this baby’s face is not a real birthmark. Because your mother was poisoned, and the poison is strong. It can’t be removed. It would be left in your mother’s body or go to the baby.

“But she was weak then. If it was left in her body, both the mother and baby would die. In order to protect them, I had to make the poison go to the baby, so I said that this baby couldn’t be kept.”

It was not that it couldn’t be born, but even if it was born…

Thinking of Dong Hui’s frightened expression when she saw this baby for the first time, Shi Qingxue felt disappointed and her face turned pale.

Shen Luo comforted her. “Fortunately, your mother gave birth to twins, and your little brother isn’t affected. You can rest assured.”

It was the luckiest thing in this tragedy.

Shi Qingxue wasn’t comforted. “What about the first one? Can’t you do anything?”

Meeting Shi Qingxue’s eyes with expectancy, Shen Luo wanted to give a nod.

However, he just shook his head finally and told the truth. “I am sorry. I can do nothing for now.”

Seeing that Qingxue’s big eyes were like a bright light which was put out, Shen Luo couldn’t bear to say the next cruel words.

Moreover, he had to promise, “But I will try my best to develop the antidote and make this baby recover.”

Even though it was almost impossible.

“Thanks, Doctor Shen.” Shi Qingxue’s eyes lit up again, and she had a smile on her face.

Looking at the baby in her arms, she felt joyful, although he was not lively, nor could he cry. She involuntarily touched the baby’s tender cheeks to tease him. “Little baby, you are a hero. You saved Mother and Brother. Don’t worry. We will take good care of you.”
