I Was a Midwife in Ancient Times

Blurb:

(This story features a System that provides obstetrics and gynecology surgical instruments and medication.)

Shi Lin, a male obstetrician and gynecologist, transmigrates to ancient times and becomes a ge'er.

His family is infamous in the village for being poor.

All seven of them survive on just two mu of farmland.

His father is a loafer who spends all day idling around, while his mother is a doting wife who loves gossiping.

He has two older sisters, an older ge'er brother, and a younger brother, a man who is spoiled by their parents.

A disastrous start, with every ingredient in place.

To make ends meet, Shi Lin rolls up his sleeves and returns to his old profession, working as a midwife in ancient times.

For pregnant women whose babies are in the wrong position, he uses the Great Shift of Heaven and Earth to help with delivery.

For patients with life-threatening complications during labor, he performs C-sections, saving both mother and child.

He also helps women in the village with postpartum care after they give birth...

Shi Lin grows more and more famous, until even people in the prefectural city know his name and invite him to deliver babies.

Once he can earn money and has a say in things, Shi Lin sends his loafer father to work as an informant, finding out whose wives are about to give birth.

His gossip-loving mother becomes a publicist, promoting his delivery successes and attracting clients.

He pays his sisters and brother to work as midwives and postpartum caregivers. His lazy younger brother joins their father as an informant, blending in with groups of children to gather information.

The whole family devotes themselves to Shi Lin's business.

Before long, the villagers realize that the Shi family, whom they once looked down on, now live in a brick house with tiled roofs, own dozens of mu of good farmland, and can even hire tenant farmers to work it. The smell of meat often wafts from their home, too.

And the Shi family's fourth ge'er, who used to be so full of himself but short on ability, has become a sought-after favorite whom several villages are vying to recruit. Thanks to his delivery skills and his ability to treat women's illnesses, he has become the renowned Immortal Shi. Even the local government respectfully comes to ask for his help.

Shi Lin never expected that he would even get a government post. The authorities provide him not only with money and grain, but also with a husband.

He looks at the muscular hunk before him, dressed in a constable's uniform, over nine chi tall, broad-shouldered and long-legged, and gazes up at the sky.

He's an obstetrician and gynecologist, but he has no desire to deliver his own baby!
