Chapter 441: delivery
The prairie wolf has a strong physique. The female wolf on the ground didn't groan in pain even though it was **** and bloody. Its paws stroked its lower abdomen, and a line of clear tears flowed from the wolf's eyes.
Li Haitang's heart suddenly softened. Although they were of different races, they still wanted to be a mother. She could understand the mood of the female wolf very well.
"Haitang, is there any reason for this?"
Zhang Ruyi carried hot water, and Lan Yi didn't care about being afraid, and sent a charcoal basin for heating and an oil lamp for lighting to the tent.
"There are still a few blankets here, let's spread them underneath."
There was a heavy snowfall a few days ago, and the land in the village was covered with white snow, which was icy cold. The female wolf was injured and had to find a place to keep warm.
They did think of a way to lure the wolf into the house, but the wolf king couldn't fully trust humans, so he just knelt aside, like a big dog, with anticipation in his eyes.
"If it doesn't work, I'll withdraw first and leave you to feed the wolves."
Zhang Ruyi swayed from side to side, blocking her way, Li Haitang stopped, patted her on the shoulder, and teased.
Her medicine box was on the carriage and was taken down, but the light in the tent was limited, and Li Haitang couldn't see the wound clearly enough.
"I went to the neighbor's house to get an oil lamp."
Ji Qiu swallowed nervously, hundreds of prairie wolves, if they get angry, the villagers present will not survive a few, and he can only protect his wife.
There are a total of three oil lamps and a lantern in the house, and some scattered candles, but the candles are not windproof and take up space, and they go out as soon as they are lit.
"I don't want to lend you my oil lamp for nothing! I have to ask for money for the lamp oil!"
Among the people in Lijia Village, someone yelled with a straight neck, Ji Qiu took a closer look, almost annoyed, his brows were burning, and there were some people who wanted money rather than life.
The neighbor's family is top-notch. Under the leadership of Mrs. Li, the daughter is addicted to prostitution and can't live in poverty. Parents are not ashamed, as long as they give money, everything will be good.
Lan Yi's hands were frostbitten, and he had to pay a sum of money for carrots.
Maybe the other party thinks that he is being taken advantage of, that he is a fool with a lot of money, and that he is easy to talk to, so he casually asks for a tael of silver, without any burden.
"Bah, why didn't you get eaten by wolves!"
When it came to money, the one who was most annoyed was not Ji Qiu, but Lu Yuanqing who had just woken up. He still had a knot in his heart. Seeing that the other party had the guts to ask for money at this juncture, the lion opened his mouth wide and almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.
How shameless you have to be to say such a thing!
Lu Yuanqing was a gentleman, his face was flushed from holding back, and he swearing and chattering like a shrew.
"Patriarch, do you think you should ask for money?"
Li Jinhu was a villain, with his hands on his hips, and asked with the corners of his mouth tilted.
At this moment, everyone's goal is to survive, any obstacle, violation of everyone's interests, will cause the rest of the people to form a group, so Ji Qiu's neighbor was scolded bloody.
Inside the tent, Xiao Lingchuan lit all the oil lamps, and then took a pair of silver scissors.
Today, I was in a hurry from morning to night, and my wife hadn't rested for a while. She would help the female wolf with her wounds and midwifery. I'm afraid she was exhausted.
"Lady, I'll be your assistant, you tell me, I'll do it."
Xiao Lingchuan bent down, waiting for instructions.
"Husband, first clean the wound of the female wolf, then cut off some hair, expose the wound and apply medicine."
There was a charcoal pot burning in the tent, it was a little hot, Li Haitang just sat for a while, and then sweated. Fortunately, he had his savage husband to help, and the speed was faster than the experienced Lixia.
Husband and wife worked together, after a while, the wound was healed, and she fed the she-wolf some brown sugar water.
The she-wolf was very vigilant, she kept avoiding Li Haitang's hand pressing her stomach, and she might still have a little bit of mistrust.
"No, you can't delay, otherwise you and the baby in your stomach will be in danger."
Li Haitang illuminated it with an oil lamp, and found that the female wolf had already opened the birth canal, but what was exposed were the legs and feet of the little wolf, probably because it had been difficult to give birth before.
The female wolf stuffed the cub into the birth canal with her claws, hoping that it could come out by itself in a different position, but it lost its strength.
"The only option is caesarean section."
After a long time, the little wolf suffocated to death and must be delivered as soon as possible. Li Haitang started to prepare again. She glanced at the savage husband stupidly, and asked, "Husband, are you afraid?"
Caesarean section, shocking the world, Li Haitang has done it twice before, one is to help the living, the other is to help the dead, but now I can only rely on my savage husband to help.
But as soon as she asked, she regretted it. How could Xiao Lingchuan be afraid?
"You take a sip of light salt water first."
Xiao Lingchuan pursed his lips, shook his head gently, and wiped his wife's sweat with a handkerchief, putting her body first.
Two people are still a bit small, because the she-wolf has to be put down and put on all fours, and at least two people have to help press it.
"Ji Qiu counts as one, the other..."
Li Haitang hesitated. This scene must not be seen by the mother. Lanyi had been stimulated before, so she could only choose between Miss Zhang and Lu Er.
"I come."
Zhang Ruyi volunteered, let her husband forget it, if she faints in the tent and gets in the way, she is someone who has seen the world anyway.
"Okay, you and Ji Qiu hold the she-wolf, and leave the rest to me."
After Li Haitang finished speaking, she exchanged glances with the wild man, and saw Xiao Lingchuan nodded calmly with a resolute face. She withdrew her gaze and started a series of procedures.
There is not much anesthetic left in the medicine box. This amount can only maintain the wound for a short period of anesthesia. If it is not sutured as soon as possible, the female wolf will endure heart-piercing pain during the process.
Perhaps seeing the pup being born, the mother wolf gently arched the pup with her head, licked its hair with her tongue, and closed her eyes.
"Dead... dead?"
There are cows and sheep in the village that have just given birth, and Li Haitang sent Ji Qiu to get some milk.
After she finished suturing, she applied a layer of medicinal powder on the wound, "I'm not dead, but it's a little dangerous."
The female wolf has just given birth, even if it has a strong recovery ability, it will take ten days and half a month.
When the little wolf was carried out of the tent, the wolf king immediately came up to meet him. He took one look at the little wolf and was about to rush into the tent.
"Don't worry, it's just asleep."
Li Haitang stroked the she-wolf's hair with her hand, and was really relieved when she saw that the wolf king was not attacking.
Sure enough, wolves are more affectionate than some people, and they can distinguish right from wrong.
"In my opinion, it's better to vacate the woodshed at home and let the Wolf King's family rest for a while."
There was no threat, Ji Qiu relaxed, held milk to feed the little wolf, and then discussed with Li Haitang.
He stayed behind to take care of the Wolf King's family. To be on the safe side, Lan Yi followed Zhang Ruyi back to Lucheng, lived in Zhuangzi for a while, and then went to pick them up. No one objected to this arrangement.
