After a busy day, Li Yunlan slumped on the ground, and when Mingyue pulled Baoyu in, she stood up holding on to the bed.
Qiu Defu helped me to the main room, thanked the old doctor, and went in to get the money. The old doctor went out to see a doctor, gave me an acupuncture, and gave me a prescription and a tael of silver.
The poor cannot afford to get sick!
After asking about the precautions, the old doctor was sent back by Qiu Defu and stopped by Chen's natal family to announce the good news.
When Qiu Degui came back, he gave Mrs. Chen a pound of brown sugar, ten eggs, a pound of meat, and two hundred cash, and sent her out with a lot of thanks.
It was getting dark, and Ms. Chen didn't wake up. Li Yunlan was supposed to take care of her, but she really couldn't do it, so she arranged for Ms. Liu to take care of her while she went to the kitchen to cook.
The lard in the oil can was bottomed out, and there was only half a bottle of vegetable oil. What was needed was missing.
I just made brown rice, stewed the bones, stir-fried water spinach, a plate of pickled vegetables, beat four eggs and steamed a basin of egg custard.
After the meal was finished, she scooped three spoons of egg custard, a bowl of bone soup, and a bowl of rice into the second house, and asked Ms. Liu to take the children out to eat.
Chen woke up at this time, her eyes bloodshot due to too much exertion.
Mrs. Chen didn't expect that her mother-in-law came in personally bringing food, so she felt a little uncomfortable.
"The second brother went to your parents' house to announce the good news and hasn't come back yet. Let's eat first." Li Yunlan put the food on the bedside table and put a quilt on Chen's back so that she could sit on it.
Mrs. Chen looked at her mother-in-law and didn't answer. She already knew that she had given birth to a boy, so she couldn't help but feel a little proud.
"Does it still hurt? Can I eat it myself?" Li Yunlan asked.
"It's okay, I can eat it myself." When Mrs. Chen saw the custard in the bowl, she didn't say anything and ate silently. She felt that it was because she gave birth to a son that the old woman changed her gender and became interested in him.
Li Yunlan gave her two sips of soup to serve as a meal. Mrs. Chen saw that the soup was meat soup with a lot of meat in it, so she was immediately treated like this.
When she got married, her elder sister-in-law had already given birth to a child. She didn't know how her elder sister-in-law was treated at that time, but she knew when her elder sister-in-law gave birth to Pearl, and her treatment was not much better than her own.
Mrs. Chen finished eating with satisfaction and fell asleep with her son in her arms. She never asked Baoyu about it from beginning to end.
After Li Yunlan left the house, Qiu Defu came back, "Mom, Grandma Baoyu said she would come on the day of the third bath."
Li Yunlan nodded, and the two went to eat.
After dinner, Li Yunlan said that she would take Baoyu to sleep until Mrs. Chen was out of confinement.
Baoyu was also good and didn't make any fuss during the whole process. He obediently followed his grandma to wash up.
After sleeping on the bed: "Baoyu, do you know that you have to go to the toilet at night? If you want to pee, just call grandma. If you wet the bed, grandma will spank your little butt."
Baoyu chirped and answered yes, then hugged Li Yunlan and twitched.
"What's wrong? Are you unwilling to sleep with grandma?"
Baoyu shook her head: "Grandma, I gave birth to a younger brother. Do you want Baoyu anymore?" After saying that, she hid her little head under the quilt.
Li Yunlan patted her on the back and said, "Who said that? Your mother just gave birth to a younger brother, and her body is hurting. When your mother's body no longer hurts, she can hold Baoyu to sleep."
"Brother, I don't want my mother to feel pain."
"I, Baoyu, are the most well-behaved. I am really grandma's good grandson." Li Yunlan started humming, and soon Baoyu fell asleep.
It was a torturous day, and Li Yunlan had constant nightmares all night long, and she couldn't sleep very well.
Children go to bed early and wake up early. When Baoyu saw her grandma still asleep, her little body twisted and moved. Soon Li Yunlan woke up too and patted Baoyu's little butt: "Can't you sleep?"
Baoyu laughed a few times: "I miss my mother. I want to get up to see my mother...and my brother."
Li Yunlan rubbed her face: "Okay, let's get up."
After putting on clothes and shoes for the little guy, she stretched her calves to see her mother.
Li Yunlan put on her clothes in a hurry, made the bed, and took the urine bucket to the toilet.
At this time, Ms. Liu opened the door and saw that her mother-in-law had poured the urine into the pail. She quickly apologized. Li Yunlan said, "It's okay. You were tired yesterday. Go and cook. Make the porridge thicker."
Fat Qian had already finished inquiring about Mrs. Chen's house. When she got home, she said to Boss Qiu: "It's bad, something is going to happen!"
Boss Qiu sat up straight: "What's going on? The person is gone?" That shouldn't be the case, I didn't hear about it!
Fat Qian continued: "Mr. Chen said that yesterday, the blessed daughter-in-law almost died of her mother and son. It was the third brother and sister who invited a doctor to give him injections and prescribed medicine to save his life. The baby weighed just over four pounds when he was born. Like cats, they say seven live and eight don’t live, and the third brother and sister have spent all their money. If they can’t live, they don’t have to come to my house to fight for their lives!”
"How much money does our family have?" asked Boss Qiu.
Fat Qian jumped up from his stool: "What are you doing?"
Boss Qiu sighed: "It was too late yesterday, otherwise I should have gone a long time ago. Before she comes to make trouble, you can take some eggs and money and send them to her. It looks good on her face. But what the hell is this bastard Daniel doing?" Yes, if you don’t come to apologize, they won’t be able to visit him anymore. I’m ashamed of myself. My grandson almost killed his grandson as soon as he left. In the future, I won’t be able to see him even if I die.”
Fat Qian kept his head down while Boss Qiu got up and went to the house to look around: "If you make trouble, I won't go. I will, and your mother-in-law and daughter-in-law will go back to your Qian's house."
Fat Qian became anxious when he heard this: "Qiu Da, what do you mean?"
Boss Qiu turned over his money bag and said, "What do you mean? It means to divorce your wife."
Fat Qian would have made trouble in the past. Why did I give birth to children for you? You are so heartless. You scolded her a few times. This time, she was in the wrong. Seeing that Boss Qiu didn't look like he was cheating, she felt straight in her heart. Play the drums.
He gritted his teeth and said, "How can you, an uncle, enter your nephew's wife's house? It's better for me to go!"
Then she opened the money bag and took two hundred coins. When she looked up and saw Boss Qiu's eyes, she swallowed and took another two hundred coins. Boss Qiu didn't gouge her with his eyes.
When he came out of the room, Fat Qian held the money and his heart was bleeding. He counted ten eggs and put them in the basket. He called Xiao Qian and Da Niu and went out together.
Xiao Qianshi and Daniu were reluctant: "Mom, didn't Chen Yunniang give birth to a baby? She is fine."
"Shut up! If your father-in-law hears your blabbering, we will really be driven back to Qian's house."
Xiao Qian couldn't believe his ears: "What? My father-in-law wants to drive us out of the enemy's house for that bitch."
Fat Qian patted her on the back: "That's his nephew. Mrs. Chen has the blood of an old enemy in her belly. As soon as your third uncle left, Daniu almost lost their child. Do you still want to say goodbye to Danniu?" Come on, hurry up and stop talking nonsense. When Daniel comes in, you will kneel down to your third wife and kowtow to your second uncle. If we can’t get through this matter, your master won’t be able to spare us."
Daniel was also very frightened yesterday. Although he was reluctant, he still dared not not go when he thought of his grandfather and father.
