Chapter 140: Giving Birth to a Son
"Yang Shuniang, come on! Qingzhu is about to give birth! Plum Blossom Niang ran into the yard and shouted, Yang was cleaning up the crops.
"What? Qingzhu is going to give birth? Yang hurriedly washed his hands and prepared to go with Plum Blossom Niang to help.
"Mother, auntie, what's wrong with Qingzhu? Is it raw? Yan Yan heard the shouting and hurriedly ran out.
"Not yet, let's go over and prepare! Yang Shuniang, hurry, hurry up! Plum Blossom Niang called the Yang family to leave, Yan Yan also hurried to follow, Plum Blossom Niang and the Yang family were very anxious, and didn't notice that Yan Yan also came, otherwise they would definitely not let it.
When I arrived at Zhang's house, I saw that several aunts were helping, Zhang Dayang and Xiaoyun were waiting in the yard, Yan Yan arrived at Zhang's house with the front foot, and the plum blossom arrived with the back foot.
"Xiaoyun, what's wrong now?" Yan Yan asked, and Meihua also came over.
"I don't know, just after lunch, my sister-in-law suddenly had a stomachache, and my mother said that she was probably going to give birth, and now I don't know what to do, and I can't get in," Xiaoyun looked at the door anxiously, Xiaoyun Niang would not let her in.
"Don't worry, it's okay, our mother is here, what about the midwife?" Yan Yan hurriedly asked.
"My brother called, but he hasn't come back yet," Xiaoyun looked at the door and then at the courtyard door, but couldn't do anything.
"The midwife is here! The midwife is here! Zhang Dayang ran in with a gray-haired mother-in-law on his back, and hurriedly put it down at the door, Yang heard the voice and hurriedly came out to pick up the midwife, Zhang Dayang wanted to go in and have a look, but was stopped by Mei Blossom Niang.
"It's still early, wait a minute, the fetal position is very positive, it's fine." The midwife came out and said it, so that everyone didn't have to worry so much.
Zhang Changhe is a father-in-law after all, so he went to the hall and waited. Zhang Dayang was walking around the yard, very anxious. Yan Yan, Xiao Yun and Mei Blossom stood aside and waited.
"Ahh Qingzhu's cries of pain kept coming out, and Yan Yan's palms were sweating when he heard it, this woman was really terrible to give birth to a child, especially in an era when medical technology was so backward, and the risk was greatly increased.
"Oh my God! Why is it so scary to have a baby? When Meihua heard Qingzhu's screams, she was even more frightened and hugged Yan Yan. It seems that she is not ready to be a wife and a mother.
"There's no way, women have to pass this hurdle, take it easy. Don't be afraid! After Yan Yan pacified the plum blossoms, he also had to take care of Xiaoyun, who kept staring at the door, as if Qingzhu would be safe and sound.
"Alright. It's not a problem for us to do this. Thinking that it will take some time for Qingzhu to give birth to a child, let's go to the room and sit down," Yan Yan pulled Xiaoyun and Meihua towards Xiaoyun's room.
The three of them sat absentmindedly, but their ears were always paying attention to what was going on outside, and I don't know how long it took, finally there was a cry of "birth", accompanied by the cry of the child.
"It's raw!" The three of them immediately hugged each other and said happily. Xiaoyun and Meihua also cried.
"Well, let's go check it out!" Yan Yan rarely saw a newborn child. At this time, I want to hurry up and see the child.
"Where's the baby? I want to see! As soon as Yan Yan entered the room, he said, the midwife has left, the room has been cleaned up, Qingzhu is resting, and Zhang Dayang is by the side.
"You guys, come on, come on, look at the big fat boy!" Xiao Yunniang carried the baby to Yan Yan and them.
"Wow, that's cute!" Yan Yan looked at the newborn baby, her little face was still red, she was tired of crying and was sleeping at this time, "How much?" "It doesn't look light.
"Weighing seven pounds!" Xiao Yunniang said with a smile.
The Zhang family added a big fat boy, many people are envious, after all, the first child is a boy, Qingzhu is still better off in the village in the future, Qingzhu's father and mother also have a long face, after all, they have two daughters, Qingzhu Niang doesn't want Qingzhu to be poked in the backbone like her.
The idea of patriarchy is still very heavy here, but generally if the first one is a boy, the girls below will be a little better, just look at Meihua, Xiaoyun, and Yan Yan.
Qingzhu is a child born in November, it is not particularly cold at this time, and the busy farming has passed, Qingzhu can just have a good confinement, which is a very lucky thing for the women here.
"Qingzhu, I'll bring you pig's feet ginger!" Before Qingzhu was born, Yan Yan prepared pig's feet ginger in advance, because there is the habitual food of confinement, Yan Yan can't say anything, so he prepared pig's feet ginger by himself.
"Yan Yan is here, sit down," Qingzhu has been resting for half a month, and his complexion has improved a lot, after all, the life at home is better, Xiaoyun Niang makes food for Qingzhu every day, either chicken soup or eggs, Xiaoyun also keeps making delicious food for Qingzhu to eat, so Qingzhu looks really rich.
"This pig's knuckle ginger is a great tonic, and it's good for children, you eat more!" Yan Yan put down the jar and sat on the edge of the bed to watch the baby.
"Thank you, Yan Yan," Qingzhu leaned back on the bed, "The child has just eaten, and he is in good spirits at this moment, do you want to hug it?" Qingzhu saw that Yan Yan liked the child so much, so he picked up the child and handed it to her.
Yan Yan carefully held the child in his arms, the child grew up fast, it was a little heavy at this time, his black eyes were rolling slightly, and when he saw Yan Yan holding him, he stared at Yan Yan, spit out a few bubbles in his mouth from time to time to play, and raised his little hands in fists on both sides of his head, sometimes waving them, very energetic.
"The baby is so obedient! Growing up fast, the eyebrows and eyes are slowly growing at this time, like you or like Brother Dayang? Yan Yan couldn't tell who the baby looked like, after all, it was only so big.
"My mother said that she looks like me a lot, but I think my eyebrows and eyes are like Dayang," Qingzhu looked at the child in Yan Yan's arms with a smile.
"What's your name?" Yan Yan teased the child to play, the baby may be tired, yawned, and soon fell asleep.
"The nickname is Fu'er, and the name is said to be when the moon is full, and the father-in-law seems to be looking for the name of the master," Qingzhu looked at the sleeping child, his face was happy, and his tone was full of happiness. Qingzhu is very happy here, and I hope everyone can live such a life.
Qingzhu gave birth to a child, Zhang Dayang just had time to take care of the two of them, and it was close to the end of the year, the Zhang family planned to kill a pig when the moon wine was full, and there were many people in the village who were envious and jealous of the Zhang family, but they ignored it.
There is a person who has been unaccustomed to her since he knew that Qingzhu was pregnant, and now that Qingzhu has given birth to a son, she is even more jealous, but she can't do anything, she can only complain. This person is none other than Duofu's daughter-in-law. (To be continued......)
PS: Little Echo likes Qingzhu a lot, so he arranged a good life for her.
