"Phew-" Old Uncle Zhong's long voice came into the carriage in the cold wind.

The car stopped bumping and stopped.

Lancao lifted the corner of the curtain, and several faces scrambled to look outside, "What's wrong, why don't you leave suddenly?"

"Isn't it somewhere else?"

"It won't be so soon, I heard that this Mother Pagoda is far away from the Lingzhou Mansion!"

The three sisters-in-law chattered.

Lancao just looked at the wind and snow, and didn't speak.

An old voice replied beside the car: "Little grandma, this road seems to be a little wrong, it doesn't match the map, and the old slave doesn't dare to make up his mind privately." ”

The dumb aunt got out of the car, and Liu Wan naturally didn't want to separate at a moment's notice, so she followed closely and got out of the car.

Over there, the bluegrass also ran down when she heard the sound.

The dumb aunt looked up at the road ahead, and the official road under her feet was divided into two, one left and one right leading to completely different places, and there was a slightly narrow path on the left, two large and one small The road was divided into three branches, and the vast white snow was falling on each road.

The dumb aunt put the outer hat on top of her head, and turned around to pull up the hat for Liu Wan.

Old Uncle Zhong pointed ahead, "According to this map, you should take the official road on the right, but this road obviously leads to the direction of Lingyi, and the old slave remembered that the old people said that the Mother Pagoda is in the Lingyan realm, and Lingyi and Lingyan are not boundary, and the old slave is worried that we will go in the wrong direction." ”

"Lingyi?Lingyan?"

The dumb aunt repeated, recalling the record she had seen in that book, "The Mother Pagoda is good in Lingyan, but why does your map point to Lingyi?

"The map was found by the eldest lady for your trip, it seems that it was bought from the officials of the state government for money, since it is from the government, there should not be a big difference, which is also the reason why the old slave is difficult to decide. ”

The dumb aunt looked up and looked at the flakes of snow flying in the sky, which were as big as palms, and the flowers were crystal clear, like petals of flowers blooming there.

She couldn't help but wander, such beautiful and pure snowflakes can only be seen in this society without industrial pollution.

I have seen it in my life, is this lucky or unlucky?

If you are lucky, why are you in such a hurry to leave?

That's unfortunate, but why do you really think it's good-looking?

Shaking his head, he smiled bitterly silently, in fact, he didn't know what to do next?

It's like these three forks in the road.

The map of the government points to Lingyi, but the ancient books clearly record that the Mother Pagoda is in Lingyan, how to go?

If there was a network and a mobile phone, it would be nice to enter the destination Baidu to navigate, but it was really unreliable to think about it in front of you...... Hehe...... Let's face the difficulties in front of us positively.

"Then trust the official map, to the right, to Lingyi. ”

Old Uncle Zhong took the order, got on the wheel, started the carriage, and creaked forward all the way through the falling snow.

"It's cold—the more you walk, the colder it gets!" a sister-in-law clasped her arms, "just hurry up and stay at the post station or inn, have a hot soup and rice to eat, and then have a hot kang to sleep." ”

"Think beautifully! Who knows how far this journey is, and it's really sinful to hurry on a snowy day—and it's also our bad luck to be on such a errand in the winter—"

The other whispered whining.

This is obviously to accuse the dumb aunt of not letting them stay in the house and live a comfortable life.

She was so angry that she bared her teeth, but she didn't dare to openly tear her face and quarrel with these mothers-in-law, she knew that she was not an opponent.

"Rushing on a snowy day is neither auspicious nor safe, isn't Cousin Bai of Qingzhou Mansion an example, braving the cold to rush back and forth, to come to our house for the Lantern Festival, who knows that he was tied up by the bad guys, and now he doesn't know what is going on in life and death!"

"Look at your stinky mouth to know nonsense, is it possible that we will also be ......"

Forcibly stopped the nonsense.

There was a moment of silence in the carriage.

Lan Cao's hand tightly grasped the car gang, and he felt sad for a while, thinking about a person, what happened to him, is he still alive in the world, I hope he can get out of danger and get home safely as soon as possible.

She quietly folded her hands, raised them on her chest and prayed secretly, pleading with all the gods and Buddhas in her heart to bless that person with safety and peace as soon as possible.

"Squeak-click-click--"

The wheels walked on the thickening snow, and the sound of the wooden wheels grinding against the snow was sharp and dull, with a wet aftermath.

Voices converged and moved slowly under the curtain of snow that obscured the world in front of them.

At some point, the car shook violently a few times, and with the sharp and piercing sound of brakes, the body shook and stopped.

Qian'er helped Shen'er, Lancao grabbed the carriage, several mothers-in-law suddenly supported her, and everyone leaned out of the carriage to check on the wolf.

Old Uncle Zhong jumped out of the car and ran back and forth: "Little grandma, there is a car blocking the road in front of you, and it is impassable." ”

"Get in the way?" the dumb aunt twitched her eyebrows, "Let's go see if there's something wrong with the car." ”

Uncle Zhong soon returned, "The car is fine, it was a woman who was about to give birth on the way, and the pain was unbearable, so the family could only stop to deliver the baby." Rest assured, they are already moving the car to give way, and we will go. ”

"Oh. The dumb girl replied lightly.

"It's really unlucky, you can still meet a child on this road, this is filth and blood, how dirty, how unlucky!"

A mother-in-law muttered.

Fortunately, the cold wind seemed to be a little colder when it stopped, and Qian'er couldn't help but wrap her cotton clothes tightly.

The old bell went and came again, "The road is open, you can go." ”

The wheels roll and get back on the road.

As she walked around the car next to her, the dumb aunt looked out and saw that it was a relatively cheap carriage, the curtain was thin and old, and it was a donkey pulling the cart, which was shivering in the cold wind.

The figures in the carriage were busy with their hands.

The car had already passed by and left.

"Where can we hire a midwife in this deserted place, lady, you can work harder, and where do we have the money to hire a midwife——"

A man's voice came to his ears.

The woman's cry drifted far away in the wind, one voice higher than the other, and the pain was obviously unbearable.

Suddenly, the dumb aunt leaned out half of her body in the wind, "Old Uncle Zhong stop, stop quickly-"

The old bell was frightened, and did not know what was going on, and as soon as he stopped the horse's shouting, a small figure had already gotten out of the car and ran to the back.

Oh, what's this little grandma going to do?

Several cars could only be suspended altogether.

"It's a lot of, I'm so hungry that I'm growling-" a mother-in-law shouted, she no longer cares about Lan Cao and the others being around.

Where can Lancao care about this, hurriedly jumped down, holding a small burden in his arms, and hurriedly chased after him.

"Lady, lady, you haven't given birth to a child, and I haven't seen a husband, is this so good? Such a big child, do you have to squeeze out of this small place? How is this possible? I really can't do anything about it——"

The wind and snow were tight, and a man in a coarse cloth robe was half-kneeling in the car, his two hands had touched the blood in the palms of his hands, and even the white cloth shirt on his chest was dyed red, he looked frightened and helpless, looking at his wife curled up in a circle, not knowing how to help her.

This is not to blame for his incompetence, the husband can't help it when he sees his wife give birth to a baby, and this kind of thing is the same for anyone - unless the husband is an obstetrician and gynecologist.

The dumb aunt lifted the curtain and watched quietly.

The cold wind poured in from the thin curtain that had shrunk strictly, and now it was rushing down the dumb girl's arm.

The woman had a plain hairpin cloth skirt and a sad face, and at first glance she was a low-class poor person who had been tempered by life.

The environment is really simple, not even as good as the little cold house in the mill.

In this way, the uterine opening should be opened to four or five fingers, so it is impossible to run to the nearby people's houses, so they can only give birth here.

She rolled up her sleeves and squeezed into the carriage.

"Don't curl up like that, spread your body and lie down—" said softly as he moved the pregnant woman into a straight position.

The pregnant woman, who was humming loudly, lifted her sweat-soaked face and looked at it with some surprise.

Only then did the man notice the person who suddenly appeared, he jumped out of the carriage, and waved his hand impatiently: "Little sister, you little girl came here to join in the fun, Neiko is about to give birth, this is not the occasion for you to come, let's go - go to your family - "

The dumb aunt didn't have time to pay attention to him, and took advantage of the fact that he had just come out of it, freed up a little space, and quickly jumped into the car.

The man was in a hurry, and was about to move his hand to pull her, but he stretched out his hand and was dumbfounded, and muttered: "You can come down by yourself quickly - men and women are not kissed, I don't want to do anything to a strange woman-lest the world say that I am Liu Xiucai rude and abrupt to you-"

Lancao happened to run over, she was laughed at by this man's pedantic face, it turned out to be a showman, no wonder he burned his eyebrows, he still has the mind to pay attention to what men and women do not kiss, it is really incorrigible pedantic!

"Get out of the way, what are you talking about, my little grandmother is going to deliver your mother--you can find some firewood or something to burn around the car, it's too cold-"

The man was even more dumbfounded, the girl in front of him was well-eyed, and she was dressed like the little girl in the car, she was very ordinary, but the momentum of this speech was not at all like that of a small door, and she looked like she had seen the world so she was not afraid at all.

Lancao rushed into the carriage with her baggage, and without waiting for orders, it had already been opened, and it turned out to be a first-aid kit for midwifery, scissors, silver needles, sewing needles, white thread, white cloth, and cotton...... It was no problem to give a simple delivery, which was prepared by the dumb aunt after the delivery at the mill.

There are also a few hard blank sheets of paper, which are also found by Lancao with great effort, what is most lacking in this society is precisely the most common in another world, so many things can only be replaced by the simplest methods.

Lan Cao quickly pulled out a piece of paper, rolled out a paper tube, and the dumb aunt took it and leaned on the pregnant woman's stomach to listen.

After probing with his hand for a while, he raised his face, and Lancao saw that a layer of fine sweat had appeared on the little grandmother's face.

"Fortunately, full-term, the fetal sound is normal, the fetal position is also positive, let's prepare for delivery. ”

As soon as these words came out, Lancao immediately rejoiced, this is good, this is exactly the result she is hoping for! )
