Winter days are hard, especially in this backward ancient world, let alone that.

In this winter day of idleness, Hui Niang is almost counting the days, and at the beginning she can find some other fun, but Hui Niang is not interested in the fun later.

Later, I asked Fan Ming to make some cards, and the family played cards around a table, Mahjong Hui Niang wouldn't, if she could, she would definitely let the family accompany her to play mahjong.

Now the day has reached the end of November, and it is almost the wax moon, the day of Hui Niang's birth is approaching, and the family is very nervous, of course, except for Hui Niang herself, the more this time, the more Hui Niang looks like she has no sorrow, she should eat and drink, and when she should lose her temper, she is still losing her temper.

or care about the operation of the shop, or gather the account books at home.

This year, in addition to the 600 taels of silver that Fan Ming got back, plus the 2,000 taels she sold the moon cake recipe, and the 2,000 taels that Pei Muqing compensated her, the rest was to sell watermelons and corn, and there was not much income on other days.

Of course, Hui Niang is the big head, and she earned it with Pei Muqing in the second half of the year, but Hui Niang hasn't been counted yet.

bought a shop and two hundred acres of land, used a large sum of silver, and gave Liu Ping'an one hundred taels of silver, and the rest of the total, plus the silver earned in cooperation with Pei Muqing, the family has six thousand taels of silver.

Now that the family is so rich, Hui Niang is still very satisfied, every time she is upset, looking at the number on this account book, Hui Niang can still be more down-to-earth.

said that she likes to make money or love money, anyway, she thinks that a person should not be unmotivated, although the family is rich. But everything that should be made and what should be done must not be forgotten.

As soon as the wax moon passed, the smell of the New Year became heavier, every time Fan Ming took a few small people from his family to the town to buy New Year's goods in the city, Hui Niang hated it and wanted to follow, but it was a pity that Fan Ming didn't say anything to take her every time.

I don't want her to walk away. Would you be willing to give her a bump? You can only watch dryly.

Said to buy New Year's goods, in fact, there is nothing to buy, the things raised at home, and the things planted can be self-sufficient, buy some dry goods, and firecrackers and new fabrics for the New Year.

Buy New Year's goods. Fan Ming rarely goes to the town again, except for Aunt Qi every time she goes to the shop to help, the rest of the family rarely goes out.

Because the day of Hui Niang's birth is very close. If she goes out, she doesn't know if Hui Niang is going to give birth.

Where is Wen Po, Fan Ming had already said hello, and sent a piece of cloth over, and other children's clothes, Aunt Liu and Xiaoxue have prepared a lot, Pi Shi is even more exaggerated, and collected all the clothes that Xiao Baozi wore before, and all the diapers used, and sent them over.

At the same time, there were also various diapers that I got from others. And clothes, the style is not divided between men and women. It was packed in a big bag.

Hui Niang was amused when she saw it, she knew that there was a saying in the countryside, that is, a newborn baby can be healthy and safe if she wears someone else's baby's clothes.

In order to live up to Pi's kindness, Hui Niang naturally accepted it and chose some that could be worn. After scalding with boiling water, put it away and keep it for later use.

As for diapers, how dare Hui Niang use them, those diapers are all rough fabrics, dirty and wrinkled, and some of them are stained with unwashed stool, don't think about it, Hui Niang directly asked Aunt Liu to put it away, of course, this was done behind Pi's back.

And Pi knew that his daughter was about to give birth, so he moved in directly, so that he could help; If you want to say that the Pi family is also worrying, Hui Niang's family has Aunt Qi and Aunt Liu, so she should naturally tell Hui Niang to pay more attention.

No, Pi Shi came to live for four or five days, and he couldn't hold it back, the first few days were fine, but after four or five days, he began to chatter, and he chattered in front of Hui Niang all day long, she was gone, what should Liu Dacheng and Liu Niang do?

Is it good to eat and live, the pigs at home, the chickens or something, are they fed, verbose, but they can't rest assured that Hui Niang or something like that, Cheng Tian said in front of Hui Niang. Hui Niang's mood was already irritable, and after listening to Pi's chatter, this mood was even worse.

Not only Hui Niang was on fire, but Fan Ming and Miao Miao were also on fire.

In the end, Fan Ming saw that Hui Niang felt uncomfortable, and he couldn't stand Pi's chatter, so he sent Pi's back.

At this time, it was already mid-December, and Liu Niang and Liu Ping'an's birthdays were approaching, so they couldn't rest assured that there were a few people in the family, and Pi Shi readily agreed.

After Pi Shi went back, in the middle of the night the next day, Hui Niang's stomach began to hurt, for a while, Hui Niang didn't care at first, thinking that she was dreaming, and after the pain stopped, she fell asleep in a daze, and turned over and over in the back, and couldn't sleep.

Hui Niang realized that she was about to give birth.

Since December, Hui Niang has been worried every day, in order not to let Fan Ming and them worry, they pretended that nothing happened, and they really forgot about this stubble in the back, and they were happy every day, and now when it really hurts, Hui Niang is scared.

There is only one feeling in my heart, this birth is really not a woman's job, it is too painful.

Although Hui Niang tried her best to endure it and didn't make any sound, Fan Ming still felt it, since he recovered from his injury, his sleep has been very light, and he can wake up at any time with a little movement.

In the dark, Fan Ming couldn't see Hui Niang's face, he only felt that she was wrapped in a quilt and shrunk in a ball, draped in a cotton jacket, and whispered to Hui Niang, who was huddled in a ball: "Daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law?" Are you alright? ”

At this time, a wave of pain hit again, Hui Niang couldn't help but snort softly, and Fan Ming felt bad when he heard Hui Niang's voice.

It was cold in the middle of the night, and I didn't dare to lift the quilt, so I had to fumble my way to get dressed, and after lighting the lamp, I went to call Hui Niang.

After screaming several times, Fan Ming got an answer, "Daughter-in-law, do you have a stomachache?" ”

Hui Niang came out of the quilt and mumbled, Fan Ming didn't say a word, and was going to call someone.

Hui Niang propped herself up and said sullenly: "Ah Ming, don't go first, I'm in pain, it doesn't hurt for several hours, it won't be born, it's still the middle of the night, you called everyone and just waited, ah, no, my stomach hurts again." ”

Hui Niang leaned sideways, covering her stomach with her hands, just hoping to alleviate the pain, and she didn't listen to what Fan Ming said.

There seemed to be a shareholder in the stomach scurrying around, like an insect bite, Hui Niang couldn't bear it all the time, humming and chirping, Fan Ming stood there, not knowing whether to call someone, or to continue standing, looking at the sky outside.

still didn't step out and call Aunt Liu over.

sat on the edge of the bed and stayed with Hui Niang.

said that it was a labor pain, and after a while, Hui Niang had nothing to do, poked her head out, saw Fan Ming sitting on the edge of the bed, and said weakly: "Ah Ming, you better sleep first, it's not a matter of waiting like this." ”

Fan Ming shook his head, "No, daughter-in-law, I'll accompany you like this, if you need anything, just ask." ”

Hui Niang's eyes were slightly red, and she asked Fan Ming to pour her a glass of boiling water, and after drinking it, she leaned on the head of the bed and talked to Fan Ming shoulder to shoulder.
