The day finally came. The folk song "Lamp of Repaying Gratitude" has lyrics: "The pregnancy is over in ten months, and the son or daughter is about to meet. The mother calls out in pain, and the sound goes straight into the blue clouds. The child is rushing to give birth to the mother and is rushing to die. There is a layer of paper in front of the Hall of the King of Hell. 'Wow' The mother fell to the ground with a thud, and all her strength was exhausted." This libretto talks about the moment when the baby was born, and the mother experienced a struggle between life and death.
At this time, Furong was experiencing this kind of struggle between life and death. At this time, Wang Changling stood outside the dormitory door, listening to the heart-wrenching calls coming from the dormitory. It was a cry for help struggling on the edge of life and death, and a wail at the limit of pain. Following the heart-wrenching calls, Wang Changling's heart was trembling violently, and tears were rolling in her eyes.
The sound that Wang Changling had been waiting for finally arrived. There was only a "wow" sound, followed by a baby crying "wow". The bedroom door opened, and the smiling face of the second aunt immediately jumped into Changling's eyes. Changling couldn't wait to enter the bedroom. Furong was already lying on the bed, with a faint smile on her tired face. The midwife Sanniangzi was working on the baby with the help of her aunt. Chang Ling didn't know much about this. In fact, the midwife Sanniangzi was working on the baby's belly button at this time. Since the navel is connected to the placenta, it is the channel that supplies nutrients to the fetus through the placenta. The placenta must be cut off immediately after the baby is born. If the placenta is just cut off at this time, if the wound is treated well, there will be no stomach pain in the future. If it is not treated well and evil wind enters the wound, you will suffer from frequent stomachaches in the future. Of course Sanniangzi is very good at this.
After everything was taken care of, the third lady wrapped the baby in the prepared skirt. The baby stopped crying, opened a pair of small eyes, and saw this beautiful world for the first time, and met his relatives for the first time! The baby was so cute and adorable, and people started teasing the baby.
"Call the baby mommy and daddy."
"Yo! The little baby smiled so sweetly!"
"I knew it was a girl. She was conceived on the right side. The boy is on the left and the girl is on the right. Is this based on thousands of years of experience?"
"The baby girl is so good, she looks just like Fleur. Look at her eyes, nose, and mouth. Nothing about her looks like her mother."
"It also looks a bit like her father, those eyes, nose and mouth..."
"Come on, what's the point of being so young? Isn't it too early to flatter a baby?" Everyone kept saying what they said.
Changling stretched out her hand to hold the baby, but Sanniangzi stopped her and said, "Stop, you men have big hands and are clumsy. Don't make the baby cry."
While she was talking, the second aunt had already brought hot water and now she was going to give the baby a bath. Changling sat on the edge of the bed and said a few words to Furong, asked Furong how she was feeling now, and then walked out of the bedroom.
Suddenly Fu Rong stopped Brother Chang Ling and asked him to give the baby a name. Changling was caught off guard and touched her head: "Can you give me a name..." Changling suddenly remembered what she had said to Fu Rong's belly a few days ago: "Baby, oh, baby, you are the result of the love between me and your mother." , the crystallization of love..." Chang Ling clapped her hands gently: "Yes, 'Wang Jing', the 'Jing' of 'crystallization', when I was a child, I called it 'Jingjing', and when I grow up, I become 'Wang Jing'. Okay?" Furong smiled: "I see you are happy, but the name 'Jingjing' is really nice."
There are many things to do next, the most urgent thing is to boil sugar-watered eggs for Furong right away. A woman who is in confinement is called "Mother-in-law", and there are many things to pay attention to in serving "Mother-in-law". The first is to pay special attention to nutrition. First of all, the mother-in-law must eat sugar-watered eggs, and she must use brown sugar water, because brown sugar water not only contains a lot of nutrients, but also has unique effects on skin health and nutrition. The most important thing is that brown sugar water has the effect of activating blood circulation and regulating menstruation. It has obvious effects on promoting blood circulation and quickly recovering from postpartum physical weakness. Yue Pozi is a "fasting person" and especially needs timely nutritional supplements, so Yue Pozi needs to eat four to five meals a day.
The food that Yue Po eats must not only be nutritious, but also pay attention to the lactation-promoting effect of the food. But which foods have good lactation-promoting effects? Since he had not encountered this problem before, Wang Changling had not paid attention to it. Now that the problem was posed in front of him, Wang Changling began to look around on the bookshelves in the study room, hoping to get the answer from those ancient medical books.
Hard work paid off, and Changling finally found multiple answers in several medical books. Wang Changling wrote these answers in a small notebook:
"Animal meat that can induce lactation: stewed chicken (drink more soup), fresh shrimp roe, fish (salmon can stop bleeding and activate blood circulation, replenish qi, strengthen muscles and bones, and remove rheumatism. It is especially suitable for postpartum consumption.) Vegetables that can induce lactation: carrots, four seasons Beans, red cabbage (which has a very good blood-enriching effect, and mothers should eat more of it), spinach (it is an indispensable vegetable during confinement. Chinese medicine says it can clear away heat and quench thirst, nourish the liver and improve eyesight, nourish blood and stop bleeding, etc.), Red beans (can invigorate the spleen and remove dampness, dissipate blood and detoxify, eat more to lose weight, and have unique effects on postpartum lactation and body recovery), lily (can nourish the lungs, relieve coughs and stop bleeding, calm the mind and calm the mind, nourish the mind, and beautify the skin) It can stimulate lactation and other effects.)..."
"Issues you should pay attention to during confinement:
1. Eliminate raw and cold food, and try to avoid fruits and vegetables within half a month after delivery. 2. Eat less salt to avoid gaining weight. 3. Eat less acidic foods such as vinegar to avoid muscle relaxation. 4. Within half a month after delivery, eat mainly light, easy-to-digest, and nutritious foods. It is best to eat more yellow and green vegetables, beans and nuts. 5. Control sweets and snacks. Use milk instead of juice and fruit instead of snacks. 6. The dishes are mainly soup dishes, and each meal must have a soup (chicken soup, fish soup, vegetable soup, porridge, etc.). 7. The food is neither too sweet nor too salty. 8. Within one month after giving birth to the baby, you should not eat spicy food and focus on a light diet. You can drink some nourishing soup, such as black-bone chicken soup or pig's trotters soup (to stimulate lactation). Be careful not to catch cold, don't be tired, get plenty of rest, and don't get angry or lose your temper, as these are not good for your health. After giving birth, your body will be weak and prone to wind, so you should pay special attention to keeping warm. We must insist on wearing a headscarf..."
Changling gave Furong the small notebook and asked Furong to follow these precautions. Changling also asked the housekeeper to arrange for people to go fishing in the Bahe River to ensure that the kitchen could meet Furong's requirements at any time. Changling also copied a copy of the contents in the notebook and gave it to the kitchen, asking the kitchen to arrange Fu Rong's life according to these requirements.
When women are in confinement, men need to restrain their desires. The strange thing is that after giving birth to a child, almost all women understand that they cannot do that during confinement. Who can tell who taught it to the "Yue Laozi" in such a timely manner? Maybe the inspiration from the woman herself? Certainly not. It's impossible for all "Yue Po Zi" to have that inspiration. But who taught them? Men may have no way of knowing that all women will be tight-lipped in this regard. But this problem is an open secret among women. For young women giving birth to their first child, their mothers and mothers-in-law will tell them about this important matter related to the future health of their daughter or daughter-in-law long before giving birth to the child. There are also midwives who will remind them explicitly or tactfully.
On the day of delivery, Sanniangzi reminded Furong very tactfully: "Don't ride horses uphill, and don't ride horses downhill. After six or seven, you can ride any horse." With Furong's intelligence, she deeply understood the mystery.
Furong admired Sanniangzi's intelligence for teaching herself such a crucial question in such a clever way. But when women have something on their mind, they can't help but show off in front of their beloved. She, Fu Rong, can't hold it in if she doesn't let Brother Changling share such interesting things. So Furong took a chance and told Brother Changling the poem that Sanniangzi had taught her.
It had been half a month since the baby was born. Fu Rong's body seemed to have recovered, her cheeks were flushed, and her skin was shiny, so Chang Ling began to feel restless. Furong must fight back at this time. If she doesn't fight back, once she breaks through that line of defense, she may make a huge mistake for the ages!
Furong resolutely reached out and took away Brother Changling's restless hand and said, "Brother Changling, have you heard the third lady say that poem?"
"I haven't heard of it. Miss Sanniang still likes poetry?"
"Don't ride horses uphill, and don't ride horses downhill. After six or seven, you can ride any horse you want."
"Oh, it's really a poem, but..."
"But what? Isn't it interesting?"
Brother Chang Ling deliberately pretended to be confused: "What's the point of such limericks? They are always 'horse horse horse horse horse horse horse horse horse horse horse horse horse horse horse horse ride', there is no poetic conception at all."
"This poem is different from ordinary poems. It does not require artistic conception. It just tells others a truth and an experience."
"What's the truth? What's the experience? You want to tell me."
"In the first half of the month, you must not ride a horse. In the second half of the month, you have to be patient and let the horse take good care of itself. After six, seven and forty-two days, the horse will be fat and strong, and you can gallop freely. "
"Good poem! Really good poem! Your brother Changling has been waiting for this day!" Wang Changling smiled and left Furong's side, sleeping on the other side.
