Wang Hongying turned a corner out of the courtyard gate and entered the second child's house, and saw her mother-in-law busy boiling water in the kitchen, and the mother of the second brother-in-law and daughter-in-law supporting her big-bellied daughter in a circle in the yard.

"This is going to give birth!

Zhang Mingfeng snorted and chirped without responding, and her mother replied instead of her daughter: "Fengzi said that it hurt for a while, seeing that she was about to give birth, Yu Yin went to find a midwife!"

"The second child has already gone to find Aunt Jiang, that's good! Then I'll go into the kitchen to help my mother-in-law, auntie, no matter how hard you work, accompany Mingfeng for a walk!"

"Hey, then it's going to trouble her sister-in-law!"

Wang Hongying entered the kitchen, and her mother-in-law took eggs, brown sugar or something, and put them on the pot, as if there was nothing for her to do. Her mother-in-law sat in front of the stove and looked at her eldest daughter-in-law and said, "There is nothing for you to do here, I have prepared scissors and gauze and put them in the pot to steam." You go home and help us make dinner together, and your second family and I don't have time to cook tonight, so we have to eat at your house. ”

"Okay, I'll let Minghua and his uncle kill an old hen and stew it for Mingfeng to milk!"

The old hen was originally given by her mother-in-law, and her family still has a dependence on killing it, so she can also be generous. Wang Hongying's mother-in-law only knew that the eldest daughter-in-law's rice and eggs would not be less, and she didn't know that there would be no shortage of chickens, ducks and geese.

When the family was separated before, she gave all the chickens to the eldest daughter-in-law to raise and lay eggs, and although the second daughter-in-law could get four or five eggs every day (she didn't dare to give more), she still went around preaching that her mother-in-law was partial and gave all the chickens to the old family. The second daughter-in-law's mother-in-law also quarreled with her about this, so she had to excuse herself: 'The second daughter-in-law has a big belly, and it is inconvenient to raise chickens, so she gave it to the eldest daughter-in-law to raise.'" In the future, when the second daughter-in-law is born, she will naturally catch chickens from the old family and give them to the second daughter-in-law to eat in confinement. This time, the eldest daughter-in-law's initiative to kill chickens undoubtedly made her mother-in-law speak without fail, and she really gained a lot of face in front of outsiders.

After the family was separated, the two daughters-in-law had their own lives, and she, as a mother-in-law, looked at it from the perspective of a bystander, and felt more and more that the eldest daughter-in-law was really good, that she could live a good life, that she could be a man, and that she was also a proper person who had a good sense of proportion, and that she was no worse than her, a woman who had been raised by everyone! Fortunately, she has already split up and lived separately, otherwise she looks at such a cat and a dog every day with a face, even if she is well-cultivated, there is no way to always endure it.

Wang Hongying turned his head and went home, and found that it was still early to make dinner, but if he wanted to kill the chicken and stew the soup, he had to hurry, and the old hen stewed soup would take a long time to stew the flavor. The firewood boiled the water quickly, she turned around and came back, the water was already hot, and Liu Yujin was scooping water into the basin, ready to wash her hair.

Wang Hongying hurriedly stopped: "Liu Yujin, you wait a while, help me catch an old hen and kill it before washing!"

When catching chickens, Wang Hongying specially caught an obviously different black and yellow old hen. She just wanted to see if there would be one more tomorrow, and if there was one more chicken, would it be exactly the same as today's?

Until the children got home from school, dinner was ready, the chicken soup was stewed fragrantly, and there was a layer of yellow and bright chicken fat floating on the milky white, and the children and aunts had not yet been born.

Guixiang is already older, and when she was in school, she would often hear her classmates talking about having children, and when she saw that the family didn't eat, she waited for the second and second mother to give birth before eating. After waiting for a long time, I can't help but think about it. leaned into her mother's ear and whispered, "Mom! Second, Mom can't be a difficult birth, right?"

Her mother shook her hand and slapped her eldest daughter, "What nonsense! How can you give birth so quickly!"

Lying in Wang Hongying's arms, the grass fragrance fell asleep with her mother's reprimand and action, startled, Wang Hongying glared at Gui Xiang with her eyes, and quickly stood up, her two arms were high and low around the grass fragrance, shaking gently, and her mouth was broken and muttered to the grass fragrance: "The grass fragrance is not afraid, the grass fragrance soul is back! The grass fragrance is not afraid, the grass fragrance soul is back, the grass fragrance soul is back......"

The children were sitting around the dinner table, waiting boredly, Taoxiang was lying on the table and was already asleep, holding saliva, and clicking her mouth from time to time, Liu Yujin and his wife were distressed.

"Liu Yujin, either you go and call your father-in-law to come over, and take the child to eat first!"

Liu Yujin hesitated for a moment, but finally shook his head: "Wait a little longer!"

Just when Momoka was gnawing on the chicken thighs in her dream and gnawing happily, her grandparents, second uncle and midwife all came over. Wang Hongying and Liu Yujin hurriedly greeted: "I gave birth to ?......" Wang Hongying still wanted to ask if it was a boy or girl, but when she saw her father-in-law's dejected face, the second child also hung his head listlessly, and knew the result, but he didn't ask after all.

Only the mother-in-law smiled indifferently and nodded: "It's a girl!" ”

"We didn't hear the child crying, and we thought we would have to wait for a long time!" Wang Hongying said as he turned his head and asked Guixiang, Xingxiang, and Minghua to serve the dishes and take the dishes and chopsticks to the table. "Guixiang went to bring all the dishes on the steamer, Xingxiang brought the dishes and chopsticks on the pot table, Minghua went to bring boiling water to scald the bowls, Chunxiang went to bring a basin of water, brought soap, and washed hands for Grandma Jiang. ”

In addition to Minghua's lazy non-squeaking, several girls responded crisply, flicking their ponytails, and happily led the order to do things, the midwife looked at the lively and jumping girls, with envy, and persuaded Liu Baiquan, who had a stiff face: "Big brother! Actually, the girl is very good, look at the girls of your eldest family, all of them are smart, clever and laughing, how festive!

Zhu Linglong knew that he couldn't let his man speak, and as soon as he spoke, Lao Jiang couldn't sit still because of the unpleasant words, so how could he stay to eat? Hurriedly diverted the topic before Liu Baiquan was about to speak: "Lao Jiang, you have worked hard for most of the day today, you have to have a good drink anyway!"

Lao Jiang didn't hear Liu Baiquan's reply and didn't care, she was already attracted by Zhu Linglong's word drinking. He opened his mouth and laughed: "Oh! I still wish Comrade Linglong to understand my Lao Jiang's hobby -- I will be hungry for this sip of wine." The key is that I, Lao Jiang, are doing this work of delivering babies, and I have to control it, and I don't dare to drink too much! After the second daughter-in-law of your family, there has been no delivery work for the past two days. I really dare to drink enough today, I'm afraid that you don't have much wine at home!" "As a midwife, I generally know when there will be a midwife (except for special circumstances, of course).

As soon as her words fell, Wang Hongying hurriedly nodded: "Aunt Jiang, don't worry, this wine is definitely enough for you to drink today." The wine my family bought this time is still the grain wine from Erhe Distillery, but it's a good wine!"

Since the Great Famine of 60 years, grain wine has been limited in quantity, and until the 70s, grain wine has not been completely liberalized, and it can be bought but very expensive. Therefore, at this time, ordinary people generally do not buy wine, and if they really want to do something for guests or at home, they will only buy a kind of wine made from sweet potato stalks, which is very bitter but cheap. Being able to bring out the grain wine to entertain the guests, as long as the guests are not too high-minded and do not lack good wine, they will generally be very excited.

In order to deliver the baby, the midwife is a guest at someone's house, and the host family will rarely slack off. But he was able to take out the grain and wine, and let her drink as much as he could, but he didn't. Tonight, her heart is really full of emotion.

"Hey, I'll have enough to drink today!"
