In March, Du Niang and her third sister-in-law finally rushed over.

The eldest son of the farmer attaches great importance to the elderly, and after Du Xiaoxi got married, several brothers have taken turns to see her, only the eldest brother has to guard his father and mother and cannot go far away. This time Du Xiaoxi gave birth, it was supposed to be the second sister-in-law, Du Niang disliked the second sister-in-law and gave birth to two children, and she was impatient to do things, so she gave birth to four more experienced third sisters-in-law. accompanied by the third brother who sent them over.

When Du Niang came, she had a big bag and a small bag, and she heard her son say that her daughter complained that there were no fresh bamboo shoots in Kyoto, and Du Dad was wandering in the bamboo forest every day, and before she got on the boat, she asked her sons to carry a few hundred catties up for her daughter to eat slowly. Most of the bacon prepared at home for the New Year was also brought.

Du Xiaoxi's stomach has been nine months, and it is like a watermelon in his stomach, and it is inconvenient to do anything.

Hearing that Du Niang was coming, Du Xiaoxi hurriedly hugged her stomach and moved out slowly.

Seeing her daughter's belly, Du Niang finally put her mind at ease, the daughter of the Lu family is easy to give birth to twins, she and her mother are like this, Du Niang has always been worried that her daughter's first child is twins, and now she finally puts her mind at ease.

Du Niang pinched her daughter's waist, touched her belly, nodded and praised: "This child is well raised, but it doesn't grow on you." ”

Du Xiaoxi knew that when her second sister-in-law was pregnant, Grandma Du was very dissatisfied, thinking that she had eaten it all on herself and had not given it to the child at all. Sure enough, the child was born a little bigger, and the meat on the second sister-in-law's belly was no different from not being born.

Du Xiaoxi knew that this was caused by different physiques, but Grandma Du and the people in the village thought that she was not distracted by being a mother.

Du Xiaoxi and Du Niang's third sister-in-law had a family affair for a while, listening to Du Niang talk about things in the village. Soon, he couldn't support it anymore, yawned again and again, and was urged to sleep by the old lady.

Du Xiaoxi has never had any pregnancy reactions, but she is very easy to get sleepy when she is about to give birth, and she can feel a ball of cotton in her head after sitting for a while, and she can't help but fall asleep.

Du Niang is an absolute authority, she gave birth to ten children and raised them all, which is Du Niang's greatest glory and greatest capital.

Du Niang came, and this absolute authority quickly replaced the old lady and took care of Du Xiaoxi's prenatal affairs.

Du Xiaoxi has adjusted his daily eating, and he walks slowly for half an hour. It became an hour.

After more than half a month. Du Xiaoxi is finally going to give birth.

That night, Du Xiaoxi sat on the gong bucket and stared blankly at the starry sky outside the high window, and sighed in his heart: It's so beautiful!

The night is as cool as water, and the night sky in the north seems to be more beautiful and atmospheric than that of Shanshui County.

A stream of water rushed down the lower body. Du Xiaoxi was stunned. It turns out that pregnancy is so sinful. After backache, back pain, leg cramps, frequent urination, and urgency, she became incontinent again.

Woo~~ It couldn't be worse!

Then my stomach throbbed and throbbed, and it hurt more and more. Du Xiaoxi's eyes were clear, and he finally knew that his stomach pain was about to give birth, not to poop.

Son! You are a mother watching the stars at night, born with feelings, and named Liu Fanxing!

Calmly packed himself up, walked back to the bed slowly, and pushed Liu Yao, who was asleep, who didn't know what night it was, "Hey! Get up! I'm going to give birth! ”

"Get up! I'm going to give birth! ”

Liu Yao has often been pushed up by Du Xiaoxi to rub her legs these days, Du Xiaoxi opened her eyes after a few pushes, and grabbed Du Xiaoxi's legs in a daze and was about to rub them, thinking that she was cramping again.

Du Xiaoxi pulled back his arm, stretched out a slightly cool hand to cover Liu Yao's chest, and urged: "Hurry up, I'm going to give birth!" ”

"Raw?"

Liu Yao was stunned for a moment, sat up violently and said loudly: "It's born!" ”

Du Xiaoxi sat on the edge of the bed and watched Liu Yao run straight to the yard with bare feet and wearing single clothes, and after a call from his parents, grandmothers and uncles, he silently walked to the delivery room that had been prepared by himself with his stomach, waiting for someone to come.

Liu Yao yelled and banged on the door again, and soon the courtyard was brightly lit.

Du Niang took Zhao E to find Du Xiaoxi in the delivery room, and when she found Du Xiaoxi, she was relieved, hurriedly made the bed, found a quilt with hot air from the house, and sent Du Xiaoxi to bed.

Soon the midwife was also brought over, followed by the old lady and the eldest uncle.

Du Niang fed Du Xiaoxi poached eggs with a bowl, the sweat on Du Xiaoxi's painful face fell down one by one, and after eating the eggs, she smacked her lips and endured the pain and said, "Mother, I want to eat ginseng." ”

"What?"

"What?"

Du Niang and the old lady exclaimed in unison.

Du Xiaoxi smacked his lips, "I just want to eat." "I really want to taste the original taste of ancient ginseng, the effect is not as powerful as the legend says.

"You kid..." Du Niang didn't know what to say until she got to the back.

The old lady didn't care so much, as long as her great-grandson was born, she could eat whatever she wanted, so she immediately took out a ginseng from the box next to her and handed it to Du Xiaoxi.

Du Xiaoxi took the ginseng with the thickness of chopsticks, took a sip of the hairy place, spit it out, and said, "It's so bitter!" ”

"Mother! It hurts! ”

Before everyone could react from that real bitterness, Du Xiaoxi screamed miserably.

The midwife standing at the bottom broke Du Xiaoxi's leg and instructed: "Young lady, don't clamp your legs, otherwise the child won't be able to come out!" ”

The third sister-in-law hurriedly stepped forward to support Du Xiaoxi's legs, Du Niang wiped Du Xiaoxi's sweat, and said again and again: "It's okay, it hurts this time, it's good if the head comes out, it's good!" ”

Du Xiaoxi felt that there was no more pain than giving birth, and it was more painful than the first time.

Du Xiaoxi watched midwifery when he was an intern in his last life, and knew that the mother could not hold her breath, and when she held her breath, the fetus would be deprived of oxygen, and the fetal heart sound would weaken immediately, but at this time, if you want to exert force, you have to hold your breath. In the contradiction between the two, Du Xiaoxi subconsciously pressed the slogan of the midwife, inhaled deeply, and exerted force.

There was a sense of relief from the lower body that had been holding urine for a long time and suddenly released, and the midwife smiled: "It's born!" ”

Du Xiaoxi's tense body loosened, and she lay on the bed panting again and again.

The old lady had been standing behind Zhao E, listening to the midwife's words, pushing Zhao E away with one hand, she stepped forward and stood next to the midwife to look at the child, and asked anxiously, "Is it a man or a woman?" ”

The midwife was cutting the umbilical cord, and the old lady looked for herself, and when she saw the wrinkled lump of flesh between the little baby's legs, she said happily: "Great-grandson! ”

The old lady happily bowed to the gods and Buddhas of the four directions, and watched the midwife clean up the child. Wrap it up with a bag.

Du Niang saw that the old lady was going to hold the child and hurriedly took it, and said softly: "Let the happy girl see the little girl she gave birth to." As he spoke, he held the child and put it next to Du Xiaoxi for her to see.

Du Xiaoxi glanced sideways at the heart-rending baby who had just been beaten and cried, and now closed his eyes again, and commented with a low smile: "Red monkey! ”

Liu Yao, who had been sitting at the door for most of the day with soft hands and feet, heard the word 'raw' from the house, and collapsed directly on the ground.

Liu Ziping and Liu Zi'an, two brothers, heard that they had given birth to a male baby, and knelt on the ground excitedly and thanked their ancestors for their blessings.

When the delivery room was cleaned up, Du Xiaoxi, who had been tossing since midnight, was so tired that he fell asleep.

The child was held by the old lady to show her two sons, Du Niang followed her uneasily, and only Zhao E and a little girl were left in the house.

Liu Yao pushed the door in and walked directly behind the screen, Zhao E hurriedly stood up and whispered, "Get out!" Men are unlucky here! ”

"Third sister-in-law, it's okay. I'm just looking at Sister Xi. ”

Liu Yao walked directly on the edge of the bed and sat down. Du Xiaoxi, who looked at the sleeping Du Xiaoxi, raised his head and said to Zhao E: "The third sister-in-law has worked hard, I'm here to watch Sister Xi, the third sister-in-law will go and rest for a while!" ”

Seeing Liu Yao's determined face, Zhao E didn't insist. instructed Liu Yao to wait, remember to call her over, and went out.

Liu Yao glanced at the maid who was guarding not far away. "You get out!"

The maid answered in a low voice and quietly retreated.

A quiet room. Only Du Xiaoxi's deep and shallow breathing was heard in the room.

Liu Yao sat on the edge of the bed and looked at Du Xiaoxi quietly, without blinking his eyes.

It's good that you're still there.

Liu Ziping hugged his nephew and was very happy. The gentle and handsome face was happy with several folds, and said goodbye again and again.

The old lady and Second Master Liu sat next to each other and laughed alongside.

Second Mrs. Liu sat in the distance and watched the happy family of three laughing, blew on her freshly dyed Danko, and pouted her lips disdainfully. A bunch of poor ghosts who haven't seen their grandchildren before! Virtue!

Du Niang took her daughter-in-law to prepare food for her daughter, and Zhao E couldn't help but say when she saw that there was no one in the small kitchen: "Mother, what virtues do you look at the Liu family?" As soon as the child was brought out, he went to lift the quilt when he was an uncle and grandfather, and he was not afraid to freeze the child on such a cold day! It's said that it's a male baby, and I still have to open it to see! Is! What a break in virtue! ”

Du Niang's brows furrowed tightly, she has lived for so many years, she has never seen any kind of people in the village and county, looking at the posture of the Liu family is the same as those mothers-in-law who snatch daughters-in-law and children. I hope she thinks too much, but no matter what, the child must be raised by her daughter's side.

Du Xiaoxi woke up and saw Liu Yao with a smile on his face, his heart was warm, and he couldn't help but feel aggrieved, "It hurts to give birth to a child, it hurts more than being slashed." ”

Liu Yao's body was stunned, and he held Du Xiaoxi's hand under the quilt subconsciously tightened, and said with a smile: "Sister Xi, bear with it, it will be fine in a few days." ”

Du Xiaoxi tugged at the corners of her mouth, "Have you seen the child?" ”

"See."

"Who does it look like?"

"Like you."

"It's pretty much the same, it's not in vain that I worked so hard to give birth to him."

……

Du Xiaoxi won the man in one fell swoop, and the elders of the Liu family were very happy.

The baby's washing is extremely grand.

The old lady and the uncle of the Liu family probably had a feeling of finally raising their eyebrows, and colleagues from all walks of life and those who had said that there was no successor to their old Liu family were invited over.

Du Xiaoxi sat on the bed with a soft pillow, and the child was taken out and turned around and quickly hugged back, and at this time he had fallen asleep after feeding.

There are not many women that Du Xiaoxi is familiar with in Beijing, only a few women who are good friends with the eldest uncle have come to see the children.

Du Niang looked at the smiling girl who was laughing and teasing her son, sighed, and decided to take a look first.

The little doll changes day by day, and in a month, Du Xiaoxi witnessed his son smash from a red monkey to a white steamed bun, which is gratifying.

Du Xiaoxi was out of confinement, and before he could hold his son for a few laps, a shocking thunder smashed down.

On this day, the mother-in-law, who has always been similar to a transparent person, came to Du Xiaoxi's house to watch the children.

Before leaving, her mother-in-law left a box of gold, silver and jewelry, and some words that made Du Xiaoxi feel cold.

"You have to learn to be smarter, don't be like me, your own son can't keep it!

When Xiaotu was just born, the old lady said that she should have a good confinement and went to her yard with Xiaotu in her arms. There is a nurse for breastfeeding, and the old lady takes care of it on weekdays.

Xiaotu was born, and their family was happy! On the same day, a pair of Zhuangzi with 100 acres of land was rewarded. After the confinement, my sister-in-law began to take me to various banquets, all of them were official wives and wives of rich families.

When I waited to look for my son, I found that my son didn't recognize me at all, and only had his grandmother and father. My own mother was separated from each other. I wanted to get close to my son, but I was boycotted by the family, and when the child was older, I didn't say much to me, the mother.

Do you think they won't let you raise a son? ”

He still felt heartache for his son to treat him as a respectful and polite stranger, after all, the first three were all girls, and there was only this one son. But she was stupid at the beginning, and her mother-in-law said that the children of large families have nurses, how could they be like the countrymen who are the same as the wives who breastfeed themselves. The sister-in-law took her out to play, and she also thought that she had given birth to a son, and the family recognized her status, and finally let her associate with the rich wives. As a result, she was attracted by the prosperity outside, and her son was raised by her mother-in-law and didn't know her anymore. But who is to blame for this? She likes to dress well, eat well, and do nothing every day, and someone compliments her. Who doesn't love this kind of life?

Mother-in-law He pouted and left, and it is said that someone invited her to enjoy the flowers in the East Garden.

I don't know much about my mother-in-law Du Xiaoxi, even if I have been going to Liufu since I was a child, this mother-in-law Du Xiaoxi usually doesn't see much. It was as if she was living in another world.

Du Xiaoxi once asked Liu Yao about her mother-in-law, and Liu Yao only said that her mother usually likes to go shopping, play cards and buy things, and eat with her sisters and sisters, and she can usually see people.

If the old lady deliberately did not let her mother-in-law raise Liu Yao, gold and silver treasures, and all kinds of banquets, it would be a great temptation for a person from the countryside who had never seen the world. Once inside, you don't want to leave.

On the day Du Xiaoxi gave birth to a child, Liu Yao sent two Zhuangzi from his uncle and father-in-law, and Du Xiaoxi was still happy to think that there was a sense of marrying into a wealthy family and rewarding the villa soft sister coins for giving birth to a child.

Du Xiaoxi thought that when he was confined, the child spent most of his time with the old lady. These days, the uncle of the Liu family also got off the yamen every day, took a car to catch up with him, and ran to Hongxing County for more than an hour. The eldest aunt is even more like a permanent resident. Do they really not want her to raise children?

Du Niang looked at all the thoughts of her daughter, sighed, and continued: "What your mother-in-law said may be true, my mother has seen many mothers-in-law rushing to raise their grandsons in the countryside, and raising their grandsons and daughters-in-law are not close.

When you give birth, the old lady will carry her to her yard, and the nurse is ready. It was the mother who persuaded her that breastfeeding was good for the child, and the old lady agreed to take the child back to breastfeed. In the past few days, my mother and your third sister-in-law have been watching the children, and sometimes they can't see them.

The girl is now out of confinement, and you will bring this child by yourself in the future, don't want to save trouble and hand it over to others, if this child is not close to you, you will be uncomfortable in the future. “
