Chapter 138: The Man Who Has Seen the World
The Qin family celebrated Grandma Qin's birthday, and Grandma Qin was naturally happy. The old man is a person who has come from the old society, who has experienced poverty and is grateful for the gradual improvement of life, so he smiles back in the face of the toasts of his children and grandchildren.
Grandma Qin said with a smile: "Now I have become an old woman, and I am old." You young people are people who have seen the world, and you have become polite and respectful of the elderly. Thank you, children and grandchildren!"
Grandma Qin's words aroused heated discussions among the younger generations of the qin family.
Qin's father said: "Speaking of this, Qinyin has studied in college, worked in provincial towns and special economic zones, and became the mayor of a town. I guess I'll see a little more. ”
Qin Yin hurriedly waved his hand and said: "No, no, no, my brother-in-law Yu An also studied in college, and also participated in the design of the large aqueduct, and served as the director of the largest factory building materials factory in the county, it is estimated that my brother-in-law has seen the world." ”
Yu An listened to Qin Yin's words, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Speaking of this person who has seen the world, I think you should have seen more than me." Although I am the director of the factory, I really don't have much perception of the development and changes outside, and I have rarely studied it. ”
Every word you say and I say in the Qin family are talking about who has seen more and more of the world. Suddenly it started to rain heavily. Kotomi said that she had planned to rush back tonight, but it rained so hard that she really didn't know when it would be until she could do it. Yu An said, if it rains all the time, I won't go back tonight. Grandma Qin, Qin's father, and Qin's mother all said that they should not go back if it rains, they are all their own homes, and they will go back after one night.
The rain became heavier and heavier, and it was pouring rain outside, hitting the tiles of the house, making a loud noise. The voices of the Qin family were covered by the heavy rain. Everyone toasted to each other, and replaced the original words with glances and gestures.
In the small mountain village, in line with the festive atmosphere of the Qin family's birthday for Grandma Qin, Brother Wen and Shiya are also anxiously waiting for a life and birth. Shiya raised chickens in the village, earned some money, her life got better, Brother Wen's illness was cured, and at the same time, a child who was pregnant with ten months in her belly was about to be born.
At this time in the countryside, when the villagers gave birth, they had not been sent to the hospital, and they were usually born in their own homes. There are many surrounding villages, and there is only one midwife in several villages, and which family gives birth to the baby, which family goes to ask the midwife to come to the door.
Shiya said to Brother Wen that she felt as if she was about to give birth, but she was not sure when she would give birth. Brother Wen said, don't be afraid, the people in the village are going to ask for midwives when they are about to give birth, and it doesn't matter if you wait a while.
Brother Wen is a person who loves his wife, and while comforting Shiya, he washes Shiya's feet with hot water. I washed my feet and gave Shiya a gentle massage. Brother Wen was honest and afraid of trouble, so he replied: "The last time you said you were going to give birth, I invited the midwife to my home, but I still didn't give birth. Let's wait.
In this way, Shiya and Brother Wen spent an hour waiting.
It was raining heavily outside the house, and it was getting heavier. Shiya's stomach began to ache, and the part where she gave birth began to look strange, so she hurriedly asked Brother Wen to call the midwife. Brother Wen saw that Shiya was different, and there were indeed signs that she was going to give birth, so she didn't dare to slack off, so she put on a shabby raincoat and went to the neighboring village to pick up the midwife.
The night was deep and it was raining heavily. The people in the small mountain village could no longer sit still, and went out to check the rain. Father Jean was at the feast when he heard the sound of a flash flood from afar, and he concluded that there must have been a small landslide on the hillside opposite the village. Even the location and extent of the collapse are clearly explained. Qin Sheng did not doubt Qin's father's words, because Qin's father was used to seeing and hearing any strange sounds in the village, and with decades of experience, of course, he was able to judge the place of the collapse, and it was not the first time that he had made an accurate judgment.
Qin Sheng took the multi-battery flashlight that had been reassembled at home, went outside the house to shine it, and returned to the house and said, "Father is not wrong at all, the flashlight can already see that a big tree on the hillside opposite the village has tilted. ”
Yu An continued to say to the sound of the piano: "In fact, my father is like this, and his ability to judge landslides with experience is the one who has truly seen the world!"
The Qin family agreed with Yu An's words, well, people who have seen the world are not necessarily people who have studied in college and walked through big cities, in fact, people who can make accurate judgments based on experience in production and life, that is, people who have seen the world.
The heavy rain finally stopped, and the sound of the roof's "clicking" raindrops on the tiles disappeared. Instead, there was the sound of flooding outside the house crashing against the road and streams due to heavy rain.
The Qin family continued to praise Qin's father's production and life experience, and praised Qin's father for seeing the world. Father Qin was praised and laughed, oh, the children can be so humble and praise their father, and Father Qin does not argue, he is happy in his heart, and he laughs all in his heart. The Qin family saw that Grandma Qin and Father Qin were all smiling, and they also laughed and were happy. Everyone was praising and laughing.
And at this moment, in stark contrast to the joy of the pianist, the Shiya family is shrouded in a shadow of sadness and helplessness.
Shiya's husband, Brother Wen, called the midwife in time, but when the midwife arrived outside the village, the road was washed out by heavy rain, and the midwife could not enter the village even though she was outside the village. Brother Wen was anxious, and tried many ways to enter the village in the dark, but he couldn't bring the midwife into the village, so he could only lead the midwife to be anxious in the dark night, across the surging torrent a few feet wide.
And Shiya's child is about to be born, the amniotic water is broken, and everything is too late......
Shiya's screams, Brother Wen's shouts and helplessness outside the village, alarmed the villagers. The villagers did not have common sense in midwifery, and they were also anxious. When they saw that the lights were still bright, they hurried to the qin's house to ask for help.
When the chatty and laughing Qin family heard this, they were all stunned and didn't know what to do for a while. Qin's father and Qin Sheng hurriedly took out the long ladder and wanted to use the long ladder to take the midwife to the village, but after several attempts, not only could they not bring the midwife, but even the long ladder was washed away by the flood.
Shiya's screams of pain continued, and her voice grew weaker and weaker. Grandma Qin hurriedly shouted that she couldn't wait for the midwife any longer, it was too late. Grandma Qin's cry made everyone even more anxious. But what can be done? The people in the village are getting more and more together, but there is no better way for everyone.
The emergency situation was frozen because of Shiya's fainting. The women all have the experience of giving birth to children, and they are all in a hurry, "If you don't deliver the baby again, both adults and children will be in danger!" But what's the use of being anxious? The midwife can't enter the village, and Shiya's child is about to be born, and the moment when people's lives are at stake, everyone is tested.
Just when the villagers were so anxious that they looked at each other and didn't know what to do, Grandma Qin rushed into the house, came out with a new pair of scissors in her left hand, pulled up Qin Yin with her right hand, and said to Qin Yin with an urgent look: "It's too late for the midwife, you come with me and help for a while." ”
After speaking, he trotted towards Shiya's house with the sound of the piano. Kotone's hand was pulled by her sister and she trotted up after her grandmother......
Behind him, there was the voice of the villagers discussing: "Grandma Qin is a person who has seen the world, and she can only look at her!"
