It is exactly what novelists often write about "time flies like an arrow and the sun and the moon fly by". In the blink of an eye, it has been half a month since Wang Changling and Furong came to Luoyang's grandma's house. In the past half month, the couple took a few cousins to visit Luoyang and visited almost all the famous attractions. Shangyang Palace, White Horse Temple, the scenery of Longmen Mountain, the bells of Horse Temple, the spring sunshine in Jingu, the evening view of Mang Mountain, the autumn wind in Luopu, the carp jumping over Longmen, Peony Park, Lotus Cave, Qiyun Pagoda, Zhaojue Temple, Yongning Temple...
The couple lived happily. During the day, take a few cousins with you, walk or take a float to wander around the streets and alleys, see the historical sites, appreciate the lakes and mountains, or teach poetry and lectures to a group of children at my grandma’s house. Tell stories, tell jokes; at night, enjoy the love of youthful men and women in the bedroom filled with the atmosphere of a new house.
The couple is going home today. The couple stood reluctantly at the door of the Fan family courtyard. The adults kept saying inseparable words, the children kept calling "sister", "brother-in-law", "aunt" and "uncle", and the neighbor children kept calling. The students also came to Fan's house one after another and saw that their favorite "brother-in-law teacher" was leaving, with expressions of attachment on their faces.
Suddenly someone among the neighbor children shouted: "Qi Jue Holy Hand!" Wang Changling was startled: the name of this "Qi Jue Holy Hand" would probably spread in Luoyang. Wang Changling smiled at the children: "Goodbye! I'll come and play with you next time! However, next time I come, I will test you to see who can write poems by yourself."
Amidst a burst of enthusiastic responses, the couple finally stepped out of the Fan family gate.
The couple walked out of Anqingfang and got into a carriage. They passed through Yuxiao Street, Jianchun Street, Tianjin Bridge, and Dingdingmen Street, and exited the Dingding Gate of the South Gate. The owner of the car shouted "Drive!" and the carriage was heading on the gallop outside the Capital Gate. They started galloping in the direction of Chang'an.
Seeing that another year has passed, Wang Changling and Furong spent their first happy and peaceful Spring Festival. A married daughter must go home to pay New Year greetings at the beginning of the new year. Fu Rong, pregnant with a pregnant belly, spent four nights at her parents' house and then hurried back to her own home.
For Furong, as her belly expands day by day, the psychological pressure becomes more and more severe. Human beings are the most advanced creatures. The reason why they are advanced is precisely because human thoughts are the most complex, and there are many phenomena that people can never figure out. Take the matter of women giving birth to children as an example. It is certain that all women do not want to be infertile. That is to say, every woman hopes to have her own cute baby at the age when she should have children. In other words, all women regard having children as the happiest thing. But when women actually face having a baby (especially having a baby for the first time), the happiness of having a baby is often accompanied by indescribable worries and even fears.
A minor worry is that as the belly expands day by day, women will become less and less willing to be seen, because the big belly will make their original slim figure look like a spider and look ugly. Now Furong doesn't really like to look at herself in the bronze mirror. Of course, it's okay to just look at her face. But if she looks at her belly, her original confidence in her figure will be gone. She didn't know what Brother Chang Ling thought of her and how she would deal with her bulging belly. Although Furong had tested Brother Chang Ling many times and knew that Brother Chang Ling would not affect his love for her because of changes in her figure, the unreasonable worry still could not be completely erased from her heart.
The most serious psychological pressure is whether she can survive the critical moment when the baby is giving birth, and whether there will be a situation that makes people shudder when thinking about it. Fleur doesn't dare to think about it, but she always inevitably thinks about it. .
"What if..." Fleur couldn't help but shuddered again when she thought of the tragic scene she often heard people talking about. Fleur always inevitably thinks about what if... what if she... has a baby? What should Brother Changling do? What should parents do? In Furong's mind, there were too many "what to do". All the contents of "what to do" cannot be discarded by Furong. For Furong, there are many things that are important. The baby is important, Brother Changling is important, parents are important, brothers and sisters are important... She has to filter out the most important things from these important things. She can't choose, and she can't choose, all of them. are the most important.
When Changling was not around, Furong once secretly shed tears. Why doesn't she cry? It has only been nearly a year since I met Brother Changling, but in this short period of time, the happiness she has enjoyed is so rich. From that time when he took the risk and boldly threw a colored ball to Brother Changling, to when Brother Changling came to the He family compound for the first time, and the fourth sister brought Brother Changling to her embroidery room, from Changling From the first kiss he left on her cheek to the first warm hug under the willow tree in Bashang on March 3, from the engagement to giving her body to Brother Changling in her mother's bedroom, what follows? It was the unforgettable wedding night and the days and nights at grandma’s house in Luoyang...
Scenes of the past flashed before my eyes. The flower of incomparable happiness has already bloomed and will soon bear incomparably beautiful fruits. If everything goes as expected, the happiness and sweetness will increase exponentially, but if... if... Fleur doesn't dare to think about it anymore.
Changling had already noticed his beloved wife's concerns. Although Furong tried her best to pretend that nothing had happened in front of Brother Chang Ling, the extremely smart Brother Chang Ling had already seen the worry hidden deep in the heart of his beloved wife from Furong's eyes that occasionally flashed with worry. Chang Ling felt that he should give his beloved wife some encouragement.
"How is it? Aren't you happy to be a mother?"
"Why am I unhappy? Why do you think I am unhappy? Don't make blind guesses."
Changling looked at his beloved wife affectionately: "Just be happy, just be happy. I'm worried that you have ideological baggage. During this pregnancy, you need to be in a good mood. If you are in a bad mood, giving birth to a baby can easily lead to suppressed temperament. Intolerant personality. Your brother Changling hopes that the baby you give birth to will be a cute little hibiscus seedling, with a cheerful personality and extremely beautiful."
"Wouldn't it be better for the baby to be like your brother Changling?"
"Of course, it's good. It doesn't matter if it's like me or you. Maybe, the baby is like me and like you. He is the crystallization of our love. It's not 'maybe', it's 'definitely'. The baby will definitely be like me and you." Like you." When Changling said this, Furong's face showed an extremely happy and sweet smile.
"How are you doing with your baby's prenatal education?"
"Test your baby yourself to see what he remembers."
Changling put her ear close to Fu Rong's belly and said:
"Okay, baby, your mother wants dad to take a test on the baby. Come on, dad will give you some riddles to see if you can guess them right. Baby, listen carefully: 'The sides of his beard are curled up, and he opens his mouth to meow.' At night I was busy at work and the mouse ran away—guess an animal.”
After Wang Changling finished telling the riddle, he continued: "Cat? That's right! Babies have a good memory. Dad will remember it after telling it once. What a good baby!"
Hibiscus's face bloomed like a hibiscus flower, very beautiful and sweet. Just listen to Brother Changling continue to say:
"How does a cat meow? The baby learns to meow like a cat." Then Changling said loudly: "Okay, okay! The baby imitates it so much, it's so similar!"
Fu Rong was already laughing so hard that she was out of breath, and she hammered Brother Chang Ling's back with her hand. But Changling continued:
"Baby, listen to dad's second riddle: 'Wearing a big fur coat, wagging tail happily. Loves chewing fragrant bones, singing and barking.' - Guess an animal."
Changling paused, as if listening carefully, and suddenly said loudly: "That's right! It's a dog. The baby guessed it right again. It seems that your father can't help you, so you'd better let your mother give you the riddle."
Furong was already laughing so hard that she pushed Brother Chang Ling away. The couple laughed for a while, and Chang Ling suddenly thought of a question: "Fu Rong, tell mom tomorrow to invite the third lady from Baqiao Town to perform an abortion for you. The most important thing is to make the baby be born smoothly. The most important thing is that the fetal position must be correct. I once read in a book that when giving birth, the baby always comes out with its head in front. If the fetal position is correct, the baby will fall down with a somersault, and the mother will not endure too much. It's painful; but if the fetal position is incorrect, it may cause the hands or feet to come out in front. In this case, it will be troublesome, or the baby will need a long time to struggle to come out, or..."
"Or what?"
Wang Changling suddenly realized that his mouth was open and he hurriedly changed the topic: "Well, I will go and tell my mother now and ask her to send someone to Baqiao Town to invite the third lady. It is said that the third lady is a famous midwife in our Bashang area. Madam, she will deliver the baby without any problems, and everyone in Ba Shang regards her as the Guanyin Bodhisattva who saves people in distress."
"I have heard adults talk about this before, but I was still ignorant at that time and never thought that I would need the Third Lady. How did the Third Lady learn this skill?"
"Furong, the most important reason why human beings are great is that they can learn lessons and experience from the various sufferings they suffered in the barbaric era, and gradually formed a knowledge system in all aspects. In the long history of mankind, , women have paid a huge price to carry on the family line and have children, many of them even paid the price of their lives. However, with the progress of human civilization, there have been professionals who are responsible for giving birth to children, and people call them ' "Midwife". These midwifes have systematic knowledge in dealing with the birth of babies. Not only can they give birth to babies smoothly, but they can also perform a series of health care treatments for newborn babies so that the babies can grow up healthily after birth. They can also Let postpartum mothers recover quickly and well through medicine.”
When Brother Chang Ling said this, Furong's face showed an expression of almost surprise: "Really?"
"Really. So I said, Furong, you don't have to worry, because we are guarded by Guanyin Bodhisattva in Bashang."
