Gong Sister-in-law jumped up in shock, "My water broke?"
Zhuang Auntie hurried over, lifted up her skirt, "Let me take a look..."
After a while she looked up, "Cui'er, call 120."
"The amniotic fluid broke..."
Gong Sister-in-law's face was as white as paper, "This...this..."
She hurried to open her phone and dialed 120, but was busy for a long time.
"What should we do now? Can't get through!"
She was anxiously pacing around.
Whether it was psychological or not, after hearing from Zhuang Auntie that her water indeed broke, Ding Sha suddenly felt the pain become more pronounced.
She was shaking from the pain, "Sister-in-law...sister-in-law, take my phone and go, there is a doctor's number for the maternity hospital in my phone, call her..."
"Oh, oh, I'll go right away!" Gong Sister-in-law hurriedly ran to Ding Sha's bedroom.
"Sha Sha, don't be nervous..." Zhuang Auntie held Ding Sha's hand to comfort her.
Perhaps because she was overly nervous, Ding Sha started bleeding.
Xiao Jun saw Gong Sister-in-law rush in with a pale face and sweat beading on her forehead, "What's wrong sister-in-law? Did something happen?"
"Is Sha Sha's phone here?" Gong Sister-in-law didn't have time to explain.
"It's over there." Xiao Jun pointed to the bedside table, "What happened?"
After Gong Sister-in-law took the phone, she hurried out. Hearing Xiao Jun's question, she trembled a little, "Little Xiao, Sha Sha's water broke..."
Xiao Jun was like being hit on the head with a club, "It's...it's not the due date yet..."
He got up from the bed, Gong Sister-in-law hurriedly stopped him, "Don't come out, little Xiao, you are still isolating, what if Sha Sha gets sick too..."
Xiao Jun froze in place, blinking as if digesting Gong Sister-in-law's words, "I...I can't go out..."
Xiao Jun, who was always opinionated and seemed impossible to stump, for the first time in front of her was like a helpless child, with red-rimmed eyes asking her, "Then I...what should I...I..."
He wanted to ask what he could do, he wanted to ask what he should do, he wanted to ask how Sha Sha was...
But when it came to his lips, he didn't know how to ask.
Gong Sister-in-law felt a little heartache, "I and auntie will definitely take good care of Sha Sha, don't worry too much."
She closed the door and left.
In fact, she was not confident in her heart either.
All the hospitals were overcrowded, and just knowing that emergency calls could not get through showed how difficult the hospital situation was.
Ding Sha took the phone and took deep breaths while dialing the doctor's number. She dialed several times but no one answered.
"She must be busy..." Ding Sha said, still continuously dialing.
At the maternity hospital, a little nurse ran to the doctor who had just come out of the ward, "Dr. Liu, your phone has been ringing for a long time."
Dr. Liu was drenched in sweat, looking rather tired, "Who was calling?"
The little nurse said, "It seems to be a pregnant woman, probably one you did prenatal exams for before."
Dr. Liu paused, having a bad premonition in her heart, "Has it been ringing nonstop?"
"Ringing nonstop." The little nurse nodded.
Dr. Liu walked briskly back to the office, opened the drawer, and saw a series of missed calls on her phone. Before she could call back, the phone rang again.
She immediately picked up, "Hello? This is Liu Li speaking."
"Dr. Liu, this is Ding Sha," Ding Sha breathed a sigh of relief, "My water broke..."
Dr. Liu knew the situation she least wanted to see had happened.
"How are you now? Are you having contractions?" Dr. Liu quickly asked some questions and had the little nurse check the situation in the delivery room and wards.
Now all medical resources were scarce, she couldn't guarantee Ding Sha could come and give birth as smoothly as before.
"It's been painful since this morning..." Ding Sha endured the pain to report her condition to her.
"Take it easy, breathe deeply, don't panic," Dr. Liu soothed, "Is there anyone with you? If so, pass the phone to them."
"Yes, my sister-in-law and auntie are here," Ding Sha handed the phone to Zhuang Auntie.
"Hello, doctor," Zhuang Auntie took the call.
"How is the pregnant woman's condition now?" Dr. Liu immediately asked some questions.
Zhuang Auntie answered them one by one. Finally, covering the phone, she whispered, "Doctor, Sha Sha is bleeding."
Dr. Liu was shocked, "Bleeding?"
This situation couldn't be delayed any longer. Delaying further would be bad for both the child and mother. Dr. Liu made a decisive decision, "Can you find a car? Take precautions, come to the hospital immediately."
Zhuang Auntie was stunned for a moment. The only one who could drive was still isolating in bed...
"Auntie..." Ding Sha saw her glance back, "What's wrong?"
"Dr. Liu said to go to the hospital now," Zhuang Auntie replied, "But little Xiao, he..."
Ding Sha gritted her teeth. She could feel the pain becoming more frequent and prolonged. The physical pain and wetness made her fearful every moment.
She had to safely deliver this child.
Ding Sha gritted her teeth, "I'll drive."
"What?!" Gong Sister-in-law exclaimed, "How can that be?! You're about to give birth!"
"There's no other way, there's not a car on the street." Now even if people are unwilling to run to the hospital," Ding Sha leaned on the table to stand up, "We have to hurry, I can't hold on much longer."
"Sha Sha!" Xiao Jun's voice came from behind the curtain.
"I'm fine," Ding Sha tried to keep her voice relaxed, "I'm just going to have the baby, to bring little PingAn into this world safely..."
"I...I..." Xiao Jun really wanted to say I'll go with you, I'll take you there, we'll go together.
He imagined countless times being by Ding Sha's side in the delivery room as she gave birth. He thought about kissing Ding Sha when the child was born, telling her the child would always rank second in his heart.
She was number one.
But...
But now he couldn't even step out this door.
He couldn't take her to the hospital, couldn't be with her.
He had abandoned her alone again at such a helpless moment.
Ding Sha leaned on her belly and walked to the curtain, didn't open it, just gently said, "Be good, wait for me and little PingAn to come back safely."
"When I get back, make me sweet potato noodles okay? I really want to eat it."
"Okay." Xiao Jun's voice was choked with sobs as he agreed.
"Then I'm going now," Ding Sha said, "see you soon."
Gong Sister-in-law took the car keys, and Zhuang Auntie gathered everything needed at top speed, dumping it all into a large bag and throwing it into the back seat.
Ding Sha buckled her seatbelt, "Luckily it's not far..."
She endured the increasingly obvious and intense pain. Soon, her inner thighs and legs were completely soaked through her thermal pants, and the car seats were soaked in blood.
Gong Sister-in-law was so anxious her eyes were red.
The streets were empty, Ding Sha drove with difficulty towards the maternity hospital.
At the hospital entrance, fully equipped Dr. Liu and little nurse were anxiously waiting with a gurney.
"Is the delivery room and ward ready?"
"We were able to clear a delivery room for one hour, but couldn't get a ward." The little nurse said helplessly.
"The hallways are all filled with patients too."
Dr. Liu thought for a moment, "Push her to my office then, it can't be anywhere else."
"Hope this delivery goes smoothly." Dr. Liu tried to ignore the lingering unease in her heart.
Soon the car arrived.
As soon as the car stopped, Dr. Liu went up to it, "Where's the pregnant woman? Where is she?"
Ding Sha undid her seatbelt and opened the door, "I'm...I'm here..."
Dr. Liu was shocked, "You drove the car?!"
She hurriedly worked with the others to lift Ding Sha onto the gurney.
Ding Sha stuffed the bloodstained bank card into Gong Sister-in-law's hand, "There's 20,000 yuan in this card, the password is 622627... ask Jun for more if it's not enough..."
Her hand went limp as soon as she finished speaking.
Seeing this, Dr. Liu hurriedly pushed her into the hospital, "The pregnant woman has fainted!"
