Chapter 42: Confinement

When several of them left, an argument arose.

There is a stretcher in the delivery room, and Honggu can lie on the stretcher and carry it back, but the child has to be held.

"I'll hold the baby!" Tang Ge said unyieldingly.

"How's that going to work! Will you hug? "Ah Kang is not worried about Tang Ge. In his opinion, Tang Ge is just a child, the baby is so small and fragile, and he can't afford to miss the slightest.

"It's not that I'm bragging, when it comes to raising children, the entire Banpo dolphin, or even the entire wasteland, can't be better than what I do!" Tang Ge said proudly.

"Your god-given wisdom can teach you how to take care of children?" Ah Kang's face was full of disbelief, he felt that Tang Ge must have thought it was fun to want to hold the child, and everything he said was an excuse.

"Cut! What does it mean to teach me to take care of children? What I'm best at is taking care of children! Tang Ge said disdainfully.

Seeing that no one believed him, Tang Ge simply did it directly. He gently supported the child's head with one hand, and the other hand from the bottom up, protecting the child's entire back and neck, and then gently put the child into the crook of the arm, and his arms were like a cradle, directly fixing the child in the most comfortable position, and his proficiency was as if he had done it thousands of times.

"How?" Tang Ge raised his eyebrows proudly, and glanced at the stunned crowd defiantly.

"You really can!" Akon said with a sluggish face. To be honest, he was very jealous of Tang Ge at this time, as the father of the child, he was held in Tang Ge's arms before he could hold it, and more importantly, he didn't know how to hold the child at this time.

"My baby is really good!" Honggu weakly praised Tang Ge, and then said to Akang: "Okay, don't have hysteria, hurry up and carry me back." ”

Ah Kang scratched his head, and reluctantly helped Honggu to the stretcher with the big stone, and then the two of them carried the stretcher one after the other and slowly walked back.

Tang Ge held the child and walked by Honggu's side the whole time, so that Honggu could see the baby in his arms at all times, she was worried, she walked carefully, and her eyes kept paying attention to her feet, and she glanced at the child's body from time to time. Feeling Tang Ge's intentions, Honggu smiled gently.

The little guy was wrapped in the softest young animal skin that Tang Ge could find, and even the top of his face was covered with animal skin, leaving only a narrow gap to prevent direct sunlight. The skin is tied with a bright red rope on the outside, which, according to legend, can ward off evil spirits. Maybe Tang Ge's arms are very comfortable, the little guy looks a lot more relieved, and he can't move when he lies in Tang Ge's arms.

After returning to the doll cave and waiting for Honggu to sit on the bed, Tang Ge put the child beside her, skillfully unwrapped the swaddling clothes, carried the little guy's little feet and gently lifted his body, wrapped a clean linen cloth on the bottom of the buttocks, and wrapped the swaddling clothes neatly, and then put the baby into Honggu's arms. Honggu glanced at Tang Ge approvingly, and then gently touched the little guy's little face, and the corners of her mouth were filled with a happy smile.

These linen cloths are the first products after the Banpo dolphin loom was made, which is extremely precious, and the use of expensive cloth to make diapers, not to mention the wasteland or Zhongzhou, even the Banpo dolphin, this is unique.

After wrapping the diaper, Tang Ge was not idle, turned around and found a clean towel, soaked it in warm water, handed it to Honggu, and said, "While the little guy is not asleep, quickly wipe his body, it's time to feed him." ”

Honggu immediately looked sluggish, and said intermittently: "I really want to ...... No milk ...... yet."

"That's right! That's why it's all the more important to feed. Let the little one have more ho-ho. Tang Ge said with a look of course.

"And now! What do children eat without milk! Akon asked anxiously.

"When the child finishes drinking, feed the child water first, and let the child's umbilical feces be pulled out first, and when the umbilical feces are almost pulled, it is estimated that the milk will come down." Tang Ge slowly explained to Ah Kang and Honggu.

Seeing that Tang Ge said it was a matter of course, Honggu and Akang breathed a sigh of relief. Anyway, they really hadn't thought about it before.

Honggu carefully wiped her chest with a towel, then lifted her clothes and began to breastfeed the child before stuffing it into her mouth, and the little guy squeaked under the dictates of nature.

"You can't just do one side, you have to rotate on both sides." Tang Gele watched the child breastfeeding, and did not shy away from suspicion at all.

After a long time, without eating a single bite, the little guy gradually became impatient, grinning and began to cry milkily.

"The temper is not small!" Tang Ge picked up the child with a smile and stuffed it into Akang's arms.

Ah Kang, who was holding the child for the first time, was stiff and didn't dare to move, and his posture looked very awkward.

"Relax, just hold it gently, don't be so nervous. You hold it, I'll feed him water. Tang Ge said to Ah Kang with a smile while picking up the prepared warm boiled water.

Ah Kang stiffened his neck and grinned, a nervous smile as ugly as crying.

Tang Ge sucked up a little warm boiled water with a glass straw that had been made a long time ago, and gently dripped it into the little guy's mouth, and the little guy smashed it and swallowed it.

"You have to hold the child smoothly, with your head high and the soles of your feet high, or the child will choke." Tang Ge instructed carefully while feeding the water. Ah Kang hurriedly leaned over, maintaining a posture with one shoulder high and one shoulder low and not moving, and his funny appearance made Tang Ge and the three of them laugh.

The little guy was just born, and the amount of food was very small, so he didn't drink it after a few sips, and he fell asleep sweetly. Tang Ge commanded Ah Kang and gently put the child on the bed. At this time, Ah Kang let out a long breath and finally relaxed.

Finally calmed down, Tang Ge, Ah Kang, Da Shi and Honggu, the four heads were crowded together, looking at the sleeping baby curiously.

The little guy didn't take a bath, the amniotic fluid on his body looked a little dirty after it dried, and his little face was wrinkled, like a little old man, sleeping sweetly with his eyes closed.

"That's what a newborn child looks like...... Why do you have a wrinkled face? Big Stone asked with a puzzled expression.

"It's all like this, and when you grow up, you'll become a handsome guy." Tang Ge replied softly, and then asked rhetorically, "Why don't you know?" ”

Big Stone subconsciously replied, "How do I know?" I wasn't there when you were born. ”

Tang Ge was furious and kicked the big stone fiercely. Dashi knew that he was speechless, smiled wryly, and made a look of looking at the baby intently.

"You can't let him lie flat all the time, you have to turn back and forth, let him lie on his side, so that his head looks good." Tang Ge commanded softly.

"I know." Honggu replied softly.

Seeing that the baby was sleeping soundly, Tang Ge turned around and went to the newly built kitchen outside to cook. The little guy and Honggu are both weak, but they can't stand the smoke.

Take out a little precious flour, stir it into a paste in a bowl, boil water, pour the batter into the pot and stir quickly, wait for the water to boil, pour the beaten eggs into the pot little by little, and the eggs will immediately turn into a piece of golden and shallow egg flower into the pot, like a flying cloud, flying up and down in the noodle soup. Roll for a while, and a bowl of golden and fragrant noodle soup is ready. The mother who has just given birth is weak, and greasy or slightly hard things can't be restrained, and this noodle soup is the best way to make confinement rice.

"It's a pity there is no brown sugar." Tang Ge sighed regretfully. For mothers, brown sugar is the most warm, and the taste of sweetness is also good. Although honey is also sweet, but honey is wild, bees collect honey flying around, the devil knows whether honey contains harmful microorganisms to the human body, so it is better for mothers and young children not to eat honey.

To make a bowl of noodle soup, only two or three spoonfuls of flour are enough, but at the moment, although this bowl of noodle soup is not priceless, it is indeed precious. When Tang Ge brought the rice to Honggu, Honggu held the bowl and said that Tang Ge was ignorant and foolish. But in the end, under Tang Ge's advice, he slowly drank the fragrant noodle soup one bite at a time.
