Chapter 136: Sheep Born (Fourth Shift, Seeking Flowers)

Out of the hotel, Zhang Taiping said goodbye to Yang Wanli, it seems that there is no need to spend the night outside tonight, and now I can go back. exchanged phone numbers with Zhou Sheng, and rode into the traffic. Such an unpleasant thing happened today, and Yang Wanli did not keep it. Zhou Sheng looked at Zhang Taiping's arrogant and domineering Harley Knight, his eyes lit up again, this car is not simple, it seems that Zhang Dashuai also has the need to have a relationship.

As soon as Zhang Taiping's car got on the Huanshan Road, he heard someone shouting his name behind him, it was Zhao Xiaoshu and Zhao Qingsi's voices, and he was surprised that these two people also came out, so he stopped on the side of the road and waited.

The motorcycle of the two also stopped beside Zhang Taiping, Zhao Xiaoshu took off his helmet and said: "I thought you were a soft egg who is strong on the outside, but I didn't expect you to be so fierce, and you lifted a person up with one hand." ”

Zhang Taiping smiled and ignored her, but asked Zhao Qingsi, "Why did you come out too?" Don't go singing? ”

Zhao Qingsi wiped the green silk on his cheeks and said, "A group of boring people." It's just that you have changed a lot from before, I thought you would go up and beat him directly, but I didn't expect you to be able to endure it for so long. ”

"There must have been changes over the years, haven't you changed too?" Zhang Taiping waved his hand back, not wanting to dwell on this matter.

Zhao Xiaoshu saw that no one paid attention to him when the two of them talked, so he put on his helmet again and said, "Let's go." ”

Zhao Qingsi shook his head, put on a helmet, and started the motorcycle. When I went back, the car was not fast, and it was already evening when I got home.

Hearing the sound of a motorcycle, Cai Xiaomei poked her head out of the house and saw that it was Zhang Taiping, and asked in surprise, "Didn't you say you wouldn't come back?" How did you come back? ”

"I participated in a middle school reunion, and I came back early because I felt bored." Zhang Taiping said as he pushed the car into the house.

"Oh." Cai Xiaomei took the lantern handed over by Zhang Taiping and took it back to the house, and after a while, the girl ran out with the small lantern, Zhang Taiping advised: "Play for a while and come back." The girl who ran away responded, Zhang Taiping was worried and shouted Ah Huang to follow, it would be much safer to have Ah Huang to protect him.

Zhang Taiping entered the house, took out the two bulbs he bought, installed them in two big red lanterns, and hung them on the door on the left and right.

Yaya is still obedient and sensible, and she came back after a while, followed by a few friends with red lanterns lit with candles, and a few people collided with each other while throwing lanterns while walking, and the candles inside would not go out after touching anyone's lanterns.

A group of friends came to Zhang Taiping's house to watch TV, went into the house, blew out the candles in the lanterns, and sat neatly in the center of the room with benches one by one and started watching TV together.

Zhang Taiping asked Yaya to give each child a twist flower that she bought during the day, let them sit in the front room and watch TV, and go to the backyard by herself. Passing through the middle courtyard, you can hear the sound of sheep in the backyard.

As the saying goes: one rabbit, two cats, three dogs, four pigs, five sheep, ten oxen, eleven horses, and one year for donkeys. Sheep can only be born after five months of gestation. The error is just two or three days. Take the time to calculate the time of the ewe production at home in these two days, the day is fine, in the evening has been in the pen of the ewes began to call incessantly, Zhang Taiping relay people know that this is going to be produced, this time are in the sheepfold around.

The old man is also squatting next to him, there is no need to ask a midwife when he is there, he has been practicing medicine for so many years, he has seen any situation, and it is not a matter of hand-to-hand delivery to give birth to goats.

The ewes in Zhang Taiping's house belong to the goats, they are still young, and they do not have the unique whiskers of goats at the bottom, which is also her first one, and now she is lying on the ground bleating in pain and fear.

The old man said to Cai Yazhi next to him: "Bring a basin of hot water, and then take a pair of scissors and a bottle of soju just in case." ”

Cai Yazhi didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly prepared the things she needed, Fan Ming had a look, and brought a bench to the old man, so that the old man could rest first.

For a while, all the women in the sheepfold didn't even dare to come out, staring at the goats lying on the ground and working hard, only the pained bleating sound echoed in the sheepfold.

Fan Ming couldn't stand this dull atmosphere at first, and asked the old man with the same face: "Grandpa Zhang, how many lambs do you say this goat can give birth to?" ”

The old man glanced at the ewe's bulging belly and said, "On the body of ordinary goats, most of them are two, and some will be one, but judging from the posture of this goat, it is likely that there are three." ”

"Three, so many, the ewes are amazing." Fan Ming stuck out her tongue and said.

The old man shook his head and didn't speak, the larger the mammal, the weaker the reproductive ability, but the smaller the size, the stronger the reproductive ability. If she heard that a litter of dogs can give birth to a maximum of seven or eight, and a litter of pigs can give birth to a dozen, wouldn't she be surprised to death?

The ewe's cry in pain on the ground, a few other people are just that, but Cai Yazhi is a person who has given birth, and can personally experience the great pain when giving birth as a mother, some people say that the birth of a child is the suffering of a mother, which is not false at all. Now I look at the ewe that is giving birth to a baby sheep and constantly howl in pain, and my heart is full of unbearable.

Just when everyone was nervous, the old man suddenly sat up straight, only to see the body of the ewe's body squirming, and the head of a lamb finally came out. Several women held their breath, not daring to gasp a little loudly, as if a louder sound could scare the baby sheep into making a sound.

The neighing of the ewe was even more distressing, and after a few minutes, the first lamb was finally born, but it did not look as white wool as people imagined, and it was cute and simple; Instead, he shrunk into a small ball, and his body was wet and ugly.

The old man picked up the lamb from the side of the ewe and put it next to the fire, as early as a few days ago, Cai Yazhi put a stove in the sheepfold to heat the ewe, and tonight gave birth, the old man let a fire be lit next to it. Fortunately, it's not in the snow, otherwise it would be more difficult.

The old man took a rag to wipe the filth off the little lamb's body, and put it next to the fire to bake, this little life that had just come down had just left the mother's body, and its own metabolism was not enough to replenish the energy needed to maintain its own temperature, so it could only be placed in a warm place to keep the body from cold. In fact, under natural conditions, the lamb will hide under the body of the ewe and be covered by the body of the ewe for warmth, but when the ewe in labor is in pain, it is easy to crush the baby lamb whose life is still very fragile.

After giving birth to this one, the ewe seemed to have exhausted all her strength, and she also rested for a while, lying on the ground panting, accumulating the strength needed to give birth to a lamb.

Fan Ming looked at the small clump of lambs next to the fire, wrinkled her nose and said, "It's so ugly." Although he said ugly in his mouth, he poked the little lamb in his hand without being dirty.

The old man smiled and said, "It's like this when I was born, and it will be much better to open it a little in a few days, and then clean it." ”

After resting for a while, and gathering all the strength, the ewe began to bleat again, and everyone understood that it was time to give birth to a second one.

This time the experience of the first lamb was much faster, and it seemed that the pain was much lessened, and it was not long before the head of the second lamb came out first. This one went relatively smoothly, and it didn't take long for all of them to come out, and the old man picked it up and wiped it clean and ran the first one and baked it next to the fire.

After giving birth to the second one, the ewe rested for a while and began to bleat for the third time.

Fan Ming clapped her hands excitedly and said, "Grandpa Zhang guessed right, this ewe is really going to give birth to three lambs." ”

Cai Xiaomei glanced at her, and didn't understand what this woman was excited about, didn't she just give birth to an extra little lamb, and it had nothing to do with her, was it necessary to be so excited? Cai Xiaomei lives in the countryside, this kind of thing is common, of course there is nothing surprising, but Fan Ming is not, she is full of curiosity about everything.

But as time went on, the relaxed mood of the people was picked up again, and the ewe had been howling for a long time, longer than the first, but the third lamb had not yet been seen.

The old man's face gradually became solemn, and the third one still had a problem, and it was the easiest to have problems when he had more children. The women next to her also clenched their fists nervously, as if they could help the ewes on the ground to exert their strength. But this is the ewe's own business, and no one can help her, so she can only do it in a hurry.

The ewe suffered, and the third lamb finally appeared.

Fan Ming shouted in surprise: "Come out, come out, now the ewe finally doesn't have to be so painful." Cai Xiaomei and Cai Yazhi both breathed a sigh of relief, and they looked like they wanted the same. But the old man's face did not relax, it should be that this time it was not a sheep's head but a sheep's hoof, which showed that the position of the lamb in it was not standardized, which increased the difficulty of coming out.

Sure enough, the ewe was not relieved, but seemed to be more painful. The hearts of the girls who had just relaxed were lifted again, and Cai Xiaomei couldn't help but ask, "Grandpa, what's going on?" ”

The old man didn't look back and said: "Under normal circumstances, the head comes out first, and now the hooves come out first, which means that there is a problem with the position inside, and the difficulty of coming out has increased. ”

Fan Ming opened her mouth wide and hurriedly said, "Grandpa Zhang, hurry up and pull it out." ”

The old man shook his head in disbelief.

Zhang Taiping explained: "This kind of newborn life body is very fragile, and a little force may hurt it, and when the time comes, it will be crippled even if it is not dead." ”

Fan Ming blushed and lowered her head and stopped talking.
