Chapter 876: The winter child
" Oh this bad, this is seriously bad." Xiao Hua dug at the snow with all his might, the other members of the Yu family along with the rest of the villagers also started to dig at the pile of snow. Li Hanjing was going to give birth, how can they allow something like this to happen? Yu Dong had no idea how to give birth and what was more no woman was allowed to witness a mer giving birth.
They could hear Li Hanjing's muffled screams and they could also hear Yu Dong panicking inside. She was asking them what to do but no one dared to tell her, the process of a mer giving birth was very tricky and no one other than a mer could ascertain a successful birth even if they were to tell Yu Dong how to help Li Hanjing, she might not be able to do it!
" Hanjing, don't be afraid! I am here! Sister Tong will dig you out!" Yu Tong shouted seeing this Xiao Hua who was right beside her was speechless as he retorted, " Care about your sister a little bit too, I feel sorry for her."
Yu Dong also wanted to say the same thing but she did not have the time to do so, she looked at Li Hanjing who was writhing in pain and curled her hands around into a loudspeaker and shouted, " You lot either tell me what to do or dig us out, I don't think that he can stay put for long!"
After the villagers heard her words they started to hurriedly dig the snow with their hands as fast as they could. They could hear Yu Dong's voice much more clearly than before, surely she must be very near right? They definitely could not delay any longer if Yu Dong was panicking like this then Li Hanjing much be really close to giving birth!
Just as everyone was panicking, the pile of snow finally fell.
" Wife!" Chen Mi saw Yu Dong who was standing over Li Hanjing while making sure that he was protected from the falling snow and then immediately stretched out his hand. He was worried that if he was a step too late then he might miss out on the opportunity of saving his wife.
" What are you doing Mi? Don't be afraid, stay behind if you try to pull Yu Dong with that tiny body of yours, what's more, take a look at your hands, they are almost blue because of constant digging, if you continue like this then you might end up falling inside the snow as well, stay behind," Aunt Wang gently pushed Chen Mi to the side before stretching her hands forward. " Dong Dong be careful and climb out."
Yu Dong did not go out first instead she picked up Li Hanjing who was lying on the ground and then hugged him carefully before saying, " Call Yu Tong and have her take her precious Brother Hanjing!"
She was stuck inside the snow but she heard everything that was going on inside and was very much aware of how Yu Tong kept screaming for Li Hanjng despite her sister being trapped as well. Yu Dong was furious but at the same time she was speechless, in the end even though she wished she could smack Yu Tong on the butt, she still prioritized what was more important.
She stepped back to allow Li Hanjing to be taken out of the snow and just as she expected the first one to rush towards him was Yu Tong who despite hating winters took off her coat and then covered Li Hanjing while guiding some of the village women to help her take Li Hanjing to the bunker.
Only then did Yu Dong allow herself to be taken out while the mers behind her rushed over to their wife at once.
" You are really something!" Shen Li hugged Yu Dong though he knew that she would be fine, he still could not help but break down when he saw that his wife was in danger. Now that Yu Dong was out, he finally felt heaved a sigh of relief and breathed out ——
The rest also rushed ahead and hugged Yu Dong, just now they felt like their hearts were going to die. The one who was the most regretful was Xiao Hua, if something happened to Yu Dong just now then he would have died with regrets.
Thankfully, she was fine——
" You..why did you stay behind, do you like playing the hero so much?" Chen Mi who felt like his world had been flipped upside down cried uncontrollably. Even if his wife was superhuman, she was still his wife, how can he stay calm when he saw that his wife was buried in the snow? His heart which was high-strung with tension finally broke and he could not help but cry as he hugged Yu Dong.
" Mi…" Yu Dong patted Chen Mi and Shen Li on their backs while looking at the three mers who looked close to tears and then said," Am I not all right, stop crying, all right?"
Her voice was gentle but that only made the mers cry even more as they rushed to her and hugged her tight until not even her head could be seen.
" Okay, Okay I was wrong, I will not leave you all behind…"
Yu Dong was helpless, in the past, there were many times when she left the house. Her parents never asked her anything, and even if she did not return for days they did not worry about her, instead they would send her messages telling her to bring this and that for them and her brothers, even if she came back with her arm and leg in a sling or fracture they did not care about her nor did they shed a tear instead they would click their tongues at her and say,
" If only you awakened a better power then something like this would not have happened."
" Truly, I hope your brothers are not as useless as you—— if they are then I am afraid that I might really go crazy."
She was used to taking dangerous tasks alone but never did she expect that one day someone would cry so much for her just because she got buried in snow.
