If the pregnancy is less than eight months, it is not called childbirth, it is ...... Premature birth!

Old Man Mu's face was not as calm and indifferent as before, but slightly dignified, and he muttered: "The fetal position is down, but the fetal gas is a little floating, a little weak...... These days, we must be doubly cautious...... Production is possible at any time! ”

Qin Zheng exited the room and came all the way to the eaves of the West House, and then asked Mr. Mu, who was standing here and waiting for a while, "How is it?" ”

The girl's mother-in-law came forward to help Qiu Chen get on the couch and lie down, and the two stable mothers came forward to stroke Qiu Chen's belly to check the fetal position.

With that, he got up and walked out.

After changing his hand and checking again, Old Man Mu finally raised his eyes to look at Qiu Chen, and said with a light expression: "Don't be afraid, girl, your body is well recuperated, although it is twins this time, the fetal gas is stable...... Well, it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter! ”

Qiu Chen subconsciously stared at Old Man Mu's expression...... But, as usual, he was disappointed, the old gentleman's expression was blank, and he couldn't see the clue at all.

Old man Mu stepped forward, raised his hand to stroke the sparse beard on his chin, squinted his eyes at Qiu Chen's complexion, and adjusted his breath evenly, then raised his hand to support Qiu Chen's wrist pulse, gently lowered his eyes, and carefully diagnosed the pulse.

Qiu Chen felt that asking for a pulse once a day was a bit too much, but seeing the worry and nervousness that Qin Zheng couldn't hide under his calm surface, he still smiled and agreed: "Okay!" ”

"Let Mr. give you a pulse!" Qin Zheng walked up, helped his wife sit down on the soft couch, took the pulse pillow and put his wife's wrist away, and said softly, "In the future, let Mr. please take the pulse every day!" ”

After lunch, Qiu Chen got up with Chengying's hand and walked slowly around the room to eat. In a blink of an eye, Qin Zheng led Mr. Mu and the two mothers-in-law in.

Now, Qiu Chen not only wears shoes and socks, but he can't do it himself, and even wears pants and lifts pants, etc., he also needs to be served by the girls. Her belly was so big that she couldn't see her toes for a long time...... Oh, it's about standing and not being able to see, but lifting your feet and still being able to see.

Qin Zheng looked at his wife who was sitting slightly on her back with deep eyes...... The belly is so big that my wife needs to lean back when she sits, let alone lean over and bend over, she can't do it at all.

Qiu Chen smiled and shook his head: "It's okay, what's the use, ask for a pulse every day...... As a rule, tomorrow is the day to ask for a pulse. The hospital will be invited once every ten days, and it will be the twenty-first! ”

Qin Zheng's gaze swept back and forth on his wife's big belly a few times, and asked, "Mr. Mu has come to ask for a pulse today?" ”

A hint of surprise flashed in Qiu Chen's eyes, and then he said, "Yes, in the past few days, my appetite has been relaxed a lot, and I don't feel that it is difficult to swallow when eating." ”

Qin Zheng blinked his eyes and said with concern: "Your appetite has increased!" ”

Qiu Chen ate a small bowl of rice, drank a small half bowl of soup, put down his chopsticks, raised his eyes to meet Qin Zheng's gaze, was slightly surprised, and subconsciously wiped his mouth, there was nothing, Qiu Chen asked suspiciously: "What's wrong?" ”

There was no feast at noon, but it was used in their respective courtyards.

After all, she is a grandson of blood and blood, and she has nothing to say about her grandfather and grandson. Moreover, although she despises Qin Xiuyi's grace, she has to admit that such talents are the mainstream of this era.

Qin Xiuyi, the Duke of Liang Guo, is very fond of Brother Yun, when Qin Zheng was at home before, he would always come to see Brother Yun, and sometimes even took Brother Yun out to visit friends for dinners. I secretly called Brother Yun'er and asked a few times, knowing that there were no such messy things, so I was relieved.

Qiu Chen felt a little worried in his heart, but he didn't do anything, and then threw away his hand.

Sure enough, Qin Zheng came back before lunch, but he didn't bring back Brother Yun, saying that Brother Yun, as the grandson of the eldest grandson of the long house, was left in the Guogong Mansion by his grandfather Liang Guogong for the holiday.

Qiu Chen was slightly disappointed, answered suddenly, leaned over to wash his hands, and turned around and walked out of the clean room.

Chengying and Xuan Bing looked at each other and smiled, and Chengying said: "Master Hou saw that Mrs. was sleeping sweetly, and he didn't let Mrs. Disturb you to rest." Hou Ye changed his clothes and took the little boy to the Guogong Mansion, saying that he was back for lunch. ”

Qiu Chen glanced at her and asked, "What about people?" ”

It turned out not to be a dream!

This sleep was quite sweet, but in less than half an hour, she was woken up by urine, opened her eyes, her spirit was much better, and her brain quickly woke up, and she immediately called the girls to help her get off the kang, went into the clean room to relieve her hands, and washed her hands, Chengying reported with a smile: "Mrs. Hui, Master Hou has just come back." ”

When she fell asleep in a daze, she vaguely heard someone calling "Master Hou......", and she was still smiling when she was half asleep and half awake, but after leaving for a few days, she actually dreamed that Qin Zheng was back......

Qiu Chen felt that children grew up fast, and it would be good to make a few random pieces to change and wash, anyway, they would be small after a few days. But after saying it a few times, the girls promised at the time, and after that, they still went their own way, and she didn't bother to pay attention to it. Sometimes watching the girls do the exquisite work, and taking it to taste one or two, it is also an extra pastime.

Mrs. always said that there was a daughter in this child, and the old clothes that Brother Yun kept when he was a child were naturally not used, and a few girls took the time to make a lot of small clothes, small pants, as well as small socks and small shoes, for the little lady who was about to give birth.

Chengying agreed, took a thin silk quilt to cover Qiu Chen's body, put a gauze curtain, took a few steps back, sat on the soft couch opposite, and picked up a small pocket that was not much bigger than a slap with Xuan Bing.

Leaning on the kang, Qiu Chen closed his eyes, but still did not forget to tell Chengying: "Call me in half an hour at most, I want to get up and walk around." ”

According to a normal pregnancy, there are at least 50 days left until the due date. She didn't know if she and her children would be able to hold on for the next fifty days. But every time she cheers herself and her child, cheers up, and persists for one day, the possibility of the child and her safety will increase by one point!

Normally, a singleton pregnancy should be eight to eight and a half months old. Entering the basin means entering the labor period, and it may be ready to give birth at any time. She is now less than eight months old......

In the past two days, although she is no different in front of people, she always feels that her stomach is falling, and her appetite is very blocked, but now she is much better, but she urins a lot more frequently, and it is difficult to last for half an hour...... Moreover, tiredness and fatigue are getting worse day by day, and I feel dizzy and dizzy when I move a little...... According to her speculation, it should be that gestational hypertension has worsened, and the fetal position is descending, which is likely to be gradually entering the pelvis......

A group of children and a few clever servants went to the back garden with a small smile. Qiu Chen was a little tired, and watched Yang Shuyong and Zhou accompany Mrs. Liu back to Ruyi Courtyard, and she herself helped the girl back to Mu'en Courtyard. After washing up and eating a meal, I went on the kang crookedly.

In addition, cold hands and feet, stomach cold and weak spleen can also be treated with sugar osmanthus stewed eggs, and the effect is also very good.

Especially after the woman gives birth, turbid rice wine and sugar osmanthus are taken every day, which can better invigorate blood and remove stasis, warm the uterus and dispel cold, which is very good for the recovery of the confinement fù, and also promotes the secretion of milk. It can be said that it is the best food supplement prescription in confinement.

Qiu Chen simply waved his hand and sent someone to pick osmanthus flowers in the back garden...... Whether she can eat it or not, osmanthus is very useful when picked to make osmanthus nectar and sugar osmanthus, and it can be kept for a year or even longer.

The few people found by Ping An were very neat, and the high light poles were erected high in three or two clicks, and they were steady and unshaky. After the light poles at the gates of several courtyards were erected, it was only half an hour, and everyone was quite unsatisfied.

Yang Shuyong didn't go out of the city again this day, so he stayed at home for the holiday, and at this time, he helped Mrs. Liu, and Zhou supported Qiu Chen, standing at the gate of the courtyard to watch people erect lamppoles.

The hanging lantern on August 15 was not hung under the eaves of the porch as usual, but a tall pole was planted outside the gate of the courtyard to hang the lantern high. Look at whose house hangs the lamp high, and the lamp hangs beautifully...... It is easy to hang a lamp on the door, but hanging a lantern on a tree pole adds a lot of difficulty and man-hours...... However, this lively Cheng dù and fun have also increased a lot, the whole family got together, laughing and laughing, watching the high poles erected at the entrance of the courtyard, and then sending the small servants with their legs and feet to climb up and hang the lanterns on the top of the high poles.

After breakfast in Ruyi Courtyard, the children couldn't wait for dark, so they said goodbye with a smile and went back to hang the lanterns at the entrance of their own courtyards. Qiu Chen also accompanied Mrs. Liu and Zhou to go out, watching the servants tree high poles, and watching the girls step on the ladder to hang the lamp in front of the door.

On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Qiu Chen, who originally needed to enter the palace to congratulate, had already told the palace about it, so he didn't go, just changed into relatively delicate clothes, and went to Ruyi Courtyard early to ask Mrs. Liu for peace.

On August 14, there was no celebration, after dinner, the children went to exercise in the evening, Qiu Chen and his eldest brother and sister-in-law accompanied Liu to talk for a while, and then went back to their rooms to rest.

At this time, the dim sum materials were really average, either hard like bricks, or sweet and greasy, Qiu Chen was really not interested in eating them. But Mrs. Liu tasted it and praised it, saying that it had the taste of old dim sum.

Unexpectedly, a group of children not only bought lanterns hanging on the door, but also bought many styles of rabbits, and also bought group member cakes on the street - in this era, moon cakes are not called moon cakes, they are called full moon group member cakes. Qiu Chen smiled and tasted a small piece and dropped it

The children came back when she was taking a nap, and went out with Junyan Junshu and Yiheng's He Zhen, and didn't turn back until it was dark and close to the palm lamp.

After sleeping and getting up, I went to walk around the small back garden of Mu'en Courtyard for a while, and then I felt that the depression in my heart had dissipated a little, and I turned back to eat a meal, and went to talk to Mrs. Liu and Zhou.

After sending off the two children, Qiu Chen was a little depressed, and he didn't have much appetite for lunch, so he ate a little and went back to the room to rest.

The two children packed up, and turned back to kowtow to Qiu Chen to say goodbye, and at noon, they didn't eat, so Qiu Chen asked people to pack up two exquisite food boxes for the children to bring, both of which were snacks that the two children liked to eat. Of course, a festival was also prepared for the Zhai family - no matter how the Zhai family acted, but since they were still in-laws, they still had to take care of the courtesies on the big face.

Qiu Chen sat silently on the couch for a while, shook his head and put aside his faint worries. After all, Zhixian Zhide is the eldest grandson of the Zhai family, no matter how the lord and wife of the Zhai family don't go on the road, they will not feel sorry for their grandson, and they will naturally protect their brothers from being bullied. Even if those two people are not well taken care of, there is a deep and experienced Mama Wang, and there are two loyal grandmothers, the safety of the two children will not be anything.

The two grandmothers solemnly agreed, knelt down and kowtowed to resign.

Zhixian Zhide agreed, and gave Mama Wang a salute, Mama Wang avoided it sideways, and bowed her knees again. Qiu Chen sent Mama Wang to watch the two children go back to pack their luggage, but she left the two grandmothers who were virtuous and virtuous, so she naturally gave them a detailed instruction. Not for anything else, but to tell the two people to take care of the two children, and don't care about anything else, but the two children must all go back, and they must come back one by one, and there must be no mistakes.

Qiu Chen called Mama Wang with a smile again, and said to Zhixian Zhide: "This time, let Mama Wang accompany you back, just tell Mama Wang if there is anything." ”

Zhixian Zhide still didn't understand it a little, but he obediently agreed.

Qiu Chen rubbed the hands of the little brothers and said, "It's rare to go back, be filial to your grandfather and grandmother, and do your filial piety in front of your grandparents for your father and mother." When the fifteenth is over, your grandfather will send you back. ”

The little brothers were appeased, no longer pouting and unhappy, and nodded in unison in agreement.

After looking at it carefully, Qiu Chen smiled and praised: "Yes, when this lantern is hung in front of the door, it must be brilliant and bright, and it is designated to be beautiful." Be of good cheer, and I will send to hang it at the gate of your courtyard. Go back and hang the other pair on the door of your courtyard. ”

The little brothers were very happy, but the tea was led by the girl, carrying two pairs of lanterns and turning back. Qiu Chen saw that the little brothers had good eyes, and picked a pair of glazed eight-treasure cherry blossom lanterns and a pair of glazed marquee lanterns.

Qiu Chen touched the faces of the two children, and asked the two of them to go to the wing room to pick up lanterns.

Although the two of them are young, they have a lot of ideas. Hearing Qiu Chen say this, it was obvious that the two of them would be able to stand up for their father and mother, the two little boys felt valued, and the reluctance and unhappiness in their hearts faded, they looked at each other, and looked at Qiu Chen in a blink of an eye and nodded in agreement.

"Hanging lights?" Qiu Chen repeated, and the two pairs of eyes looked at him with a smile, Qiu Chen smiled and nodded, "That's it...... My aunt ordered some lanterns, you will pick them up now, pick two copies, one to hang in our house, and one to take back to your old house, your father and your sister can't come back in Changqing, you go home and hang two lamps for your father and your sister, okay? ”

Zhide pouted, hung his head and did not make a sound. Zhixian stretched out his hand to hold his brother's little hand, raised his eyes to look at his aunt, and said, "Auntie, my brother and I originally said that we would hang the lamp on the door with my brothers!" ”

Sighing secretly, Qiu Chen smiled gently, touched Zhide's little hand, and said with a smile: "Zhide is about to go home to see his grandparents, why are you unhappy?" ”

Qiu Chen sat on the couch with a square pillow, watched Zhixianla take his younger brother Zhide to kneel down and kowtow in the hall, so he immediately waved his hand and sent the girls to help the little brothers up, smiled and stretched out his hand to greet Zhixian Zhide to come to him, stretched out his hand and reluctantly hugged Zhide, and then raised his hand to touch Zhixian's arm, seeing that there was no joy on the faces of the brothers, and the young Zhide even had slightly red eyes, knowing that the two children did not want to go back. First, they didn't have much sense of identity with that family, and second, the two children discussed it in the morning and followed a group of children to the street in the evening...... This time, the matter of going to the street will naturally be in vain.

This matter was properly discussed, and it was close to noon, and the two brothers had finished class, and they had also seen their grandfather, and knew that their grandfather was going to take the two of them home for the holiday, so they entered the second door together to say goodbye to the eldest aunt.

Qiu Chen smiled. On the contrary, I am not as good as the two 'ancients'! Since the old lady and the Zhou family both thought so, she didn't say anything anymore, but only sent the girl down to talk to the Chen family, let the Chen family negotiate with Ping'an, and sent someone to the Baoxiang Temple to inform the people, and on the morning of August 16, the old lady and the uncle's wife went to worship the Buddha and offer incense.

Zhou nodded without hesitation and agreed: "Well, what my mother said is right. This is the sincerity of the heart! ”

can burn incense, Mrs. Liu and Zhou are naturally happy. But thinking that her daughter's delivery date was approaching day by day, Mrs. Liu couldn't wait for the first day of the new year, and hesitated slightly: "You don't have to wait until the first day of the new year to burn incense, after the fifteenth, I will go with your sister-in-law...... Give more incense money, and the bodhisattva will naturally be able to feel our sincerity. ”

In contrast, although the monasteries and Taoism of this era did not completely eliminate the desire for profit, they were much more reserved than in modern times. Moreover, as far as Qiu Chen came into contact with, there are indeed some monks who can get rid of the temptations of ordinary fame and fortune, and devote themselves to cultivating Buddhism and cultivating the Tao.

Burning incense and worshiping the Buddha also has the right to do so, and Qiu Chen was not suitable for it when he first came into contact, but he came into contact with some things too much, and gradually accepted it. Maybe it won't be deliberately displayed everywhere, but when you need to use your identity, you have to admit that it's very useful. After all, whether it is to worship the Buddha or to believe, it is better to want to be clear and quiet. Think about the kind of tourists in the modern famous temples and ancient temples, overcrowded, and the incense is really prosperous, but what kind of crowds are surging, it is hard to imagine that you can still find the most basic pure and ethereal mood of worshipping the Buddha and the Tao. Not to mention, the so-called famous temples and ancient temples in modern times are almost all invaded by commercialization, completely devoid of the solemnity that Buddhism and Taoism should have, and there is a copper smell everywhere, and there are many temples and Taoist temples that point to eliminating karma for people, adding blessings and longevity to deceive people of money, so that many tourists look at the temple (view) and are afraid.

Qiu Chen, Mrs. Liu and Zhou talked and discussed the Mid-Autumn Festival moon worship, and then Mrs. Liu and Zhou asked about the temples and Taoist temples in the capital. After all, Qiu Chen has been in Beijing for nearly three years, although he is not keen on worshipping Buddhism, he still knows about the more famous temples and Taoist temples in Beijing, so he simply introduced Mrs. Liu and Zhou, and then said with a smile: "If my mother and sister-in-law want to go to the temple to worship Buddha, there are several ancient temples adjacent to our courtyard...... Well, people say that the first day of the new year is the most effective, so what about the first day of the next month? I sent someone to the Baoxiang Temple to say hello, and on the morning of the first day of the new year, I didn't open the mountain gate, and then let people in after we burned incense. ”
