Chapter 18, the child he was weaned
After feeding him enough, Liu Ruyue had time to continue grilling the fish, but fortunately, it was almost roasted over a low fire, and she took it by hand and passed it again in the fire, Liu Ruyue took three mouthfuls and made two mouthfuls, and ate the fish clean in the complaining eyes of the dog.
After eating and drinking, watering and extinguishing the fire, Liu Ruyue washed her and her dog's face, wiped her body, and washed the clay pot.
He also put the and urine for the child, washed the dirty diaper, put it on a clean wooden stick, moved the grill to a place where it could get the sun, and put the wooden stick on it.
I took a nap with the dog baby.
After resting for two quarters of an hour, Liu Ruyue held the child in her arms, put on shoes and socks, and prepared to set off again.
Two quarters of an hour was not enough for the diaper to dry, so Liu Ruyue tied the diaper piece by piece to the wooden stick, and then left the waterhole with the wooden stick and returned to the post road.
Although it is already early at this moment, the weather is still sultry, but the scorching sun is no longer in the sky, and there is also a trace of shadow to shade the side of the post road.
Halfway through, she encountered a banana tree again, and Liu Ruyue unceremoniously cut another banana leaf to shade the sun.
With a stick in one hand and a banana leaf in the other, carrying a package on her back and holding a baby in her arms, Liu Ruyue can't wait to have the ability of the third prince of Nezha, and grow a three-headed and six-armed man to help.
But even so, she didn't complain, this hurried was much easier than when she ran with that dart master in her previous life.
After walking for more than an hour, he finally saw a roadside tea stall in front of him.
Liu Ruyue was like a wilted flower, and she entered the tea shed listlessly.
When he looked up, he saw four officials dressed in black-on-black and red-edged official costumes sitting in the tea shed drinking tea.
Liu Ruyue, who was dizzy from the sun, trembled a little in her legs for a while.
However, she remembered in an instant that she now had a way to go, and she didn't have to hide from these officials.
Or he was frightened when he heard the human voice, and the dog baby who slept well in his arms cried uneasily with his throat.
"The dog baby doesn't cry, we will have hot water to drink soon, and my mother will give you a paste to eat immediately." Liu Ruyue didn't have any spare hands to comfort the child, so she could only walk to the tea shed.
Withdrawing at this moment makes people feel like she has a problem.
When the official in the tea shed heard the movement, he immediately turned his head to look at her, but the other tea drinkers in the tea shed were not interested in her arrival, and continued to drink tea and chat, rest.
This made Liu Ruyue's heart beat a little drum, could it be that this dog baby is a child from this county?
Don't scare yourself, you have a certificate from Tongxian County, the birthmark on the back of the dog's neck is also carefully wiped after she squeezes the juice with fresh walnut green skin, and she has not forgotten to apply it all the way, and water can't wash off the black marks left by the walnut green skin on the skin, and if you don't apply it for a day or two, the black mark will not disappear.
With this birthmark, there will be no problem.
If this child is really lost in this county, she will find an opportunity to send it back to others after she finds out later.
After cheering herself up, Liu Ruyue met the eyes of the official, walked straight towards the uncle who was boiling water, and asked with little confidence like a woman with a lot of money, "Boss, I ...... I want a bowl of warm water, how much does it cost? ”
"This little lady, this day is so vicious, you still have a child, why are you in such a hurry?" The uncle watched Liu Ruyue dress up as a village woman, and the child she was carrying also cried a lot, so he immediately mixed a bowl of warm water and handed it to her.
"My man died a few years ago, and I have to take the children back to my in-laws so that they can have comfort." Liu Ruyue tried her best not to cry, and she looked even more pitiful.
"Drink, it's not easy to go out, this bowl of white water won't charge your money."
"Thank you, uncle, thank you for the kind people!" Liu Ruyue put the wooden stick and banana leaves in the corner of the wall, took the bowl and bowed in thanks.
Then, instead of going to the table, she walked to the shade outside the tea shed, squatted down along the wall, began to drink water in small sips, and then fed the child mouth-to-mouth.
Immediately afterwards, she took out a palm-sized piece of baked naan from the package, tore it up and put it in a bowl, stirred it into a paste, and scooped it with a wooden spoon and fed it to the child.
The 11-month-old baby eats less and more meals, and it is normal to eat seven or eight meals a day.
The appearance of one big and one small clinging to each other in the corner of the wall looks pitiful and warm.
Seeing that she looked like a poor and sour country man who only promised to be on the stage, some people who looked at her secretly withdrew their eyes and stopped paying attention to her, a poor ghost.
An official who was drinking tea looked at her and squinted his eyes, put down the tea bowl, picked up the knife on the table, and walked to Liu Ruyue outside the tea shed.
Looking at the leather boots fixed in front of her, Liu Ruyue beat the big drum in her heart as if she was singing a big play, she took a deep breath, slowly raised her head, and looked at the man with a little awe, her face puzzled, "Poor master? ”
"You take your child on the road, why don't you feed him milk and drink plain water?"
"I ......" Liu Ruyue was speechless for a moment, she thought that she would be interrogated with some tricky questions, but it turned out to be this question.
What is this poor master asking, there are so many people in the tea shed, he is not ashamed.
He didn't seem to realize how embarrassing this question was, his expression was very frank and upright, and his eyes stared at Liu Ruyue aggressively for an answer.
Liu Ruyue's face flushed with shame, and she was about to cry, but this official didn't seem to understand her expression, and she vowed not to give up until she got an answer.
"I ask you, why are you ......" the official raised his voice again, apparently already quite impatient.
Liu Ruyue was afraid that his words would attract more people's attention, so she immediately replied in a low voice, "My child is already eleven months old. ”
"Eleven months, so what? What I'm asking is why do you ......"
Liu Ruyue closed her eyes and replied lovelessly, "Poor master, the child can be weaned at the age of six months." ”
Why is this man so brainless, he doesn't look young, twenty-seven or eighteen is always there, hasn't he ever been married?
It wasn't meant to amuse her and tease her.
"Yes...... Is it? The expression on the official's face froze, and his lips twitched almost unnoticeably.
But he is obviously very obsessed with breastfeeding, and still holds on tightly, "You can be weaned, that is, you can also continue to milk, I see that some people's children are breastfed until they are two or three years old, you are a mother, why bother to ask for water for the child to drink white water, soak and eat, how convenient it is to feed the child without begging for milk, is it that there are many people here, you are embarrassed to feed the child milk?" ”
"......" can let the child and milk for two or three years be served by the nurses of large families.
Not to mention that she has been weaned for several years, where is there still milk for the child to drink, does this man think that the woman is a cow, and she can produce milk at any time if she wants to eat milk?
