Chapter 2: The Full Moon

The sparrows were chirping on the ground, and so were the women on the donkey carts.

Uncle Li, who was driving the car, watched the two sparrows fly to the old willow tree at the entrance of the village, and when he lowered his head, he saw three women walking under the tree.

It was Mrs. Zhang and her two daughters-in-law.

"Sister-in-law Zhang is also going to town?" An aunt in the next village looked very enthusiastic, "Come on, there is still a place next to me." ”

Mrs. Zhang gave the car money first, and then came to sit down and greet the aunt.

"The third child's child is full moon today, isn't he going to help?"

"Boys and girls?"

"It's a girl."

"Girl." The girl pouted, looking very disgusted.

Patriarchy is the norm in the village, and this aunt thinks about the same as most people in the village. But Mrs. Zhang just felt unhappy when she heard this.

Originally, I wanted to talk about how cute my little granddaughter was, but now I don't have half a point of such thoughts, and I don't put on a face to see the love of living close.

Mrs. Zhang didn't answer, and the aunt didn't care, but she was in a bad mood because she had been looking forward to her grandson for ten months, but finally found out that it was a granddaughter.

She always felt bored when she didn't talk on the donkey cart, and her eyes gurgled, and it didn't take long for her to find a new topic.

"Xiao Ya, your second child, is it called Xiao Yong?"

Xiaoya is talking about the second daughter-in-law Qin Liuya, she is a native of Langang Village, and everyone watched grow up, she was not in good health when she was a child, and she was thinner than the woman next to her when she grew up, but fortunately, her skin was white, and her appearance was also outstanding.

The daughter she gave birth to in her first child, and the women who were close to him and who had envied her were laughing at her, and she cried secretly for this until she gave birth to a son last year, and finally got her wish.

She looked up, gave a quick "um", and shrank back like a frightened bird.

"Fortunately, this time your belly is angry, if you have another daughter, I am afraid that you will not have a chance to have a son in the future."

The girl lowered her voice, as if she was going to say something secret.

"According to the new regulations above, now couples are only allowed to have one child. Our rural area is a little better, saying that if the first child gives birth to a daughter, it can give birth to a second child, but at most it can only give birth to two. ”

Thinking about it, he added, "Your third child won't have this good luck." ”

Mrs. Zhang listened with her ears pricked up for a long time, but she couldn't help but interject.

"What's wrong with my granddaughter, the girl doesn't have the blood of our old Ou family, it's not the Ou family?"

That aunt is not a very courageous person, as soon as she saw that Mrs. Zhang was staring at her eyes and wanted to theorize well, but the theory was just a hands-on look, she stopped talking stupidly.

The Ou family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law live far away, and Nurse Yang, who lives in the town, has already taken her son to the Ou family's small courtyard at this time.

She sat on the kang and chatted with Ruan Yu.

"I'll just say that our sweet girl is a blessing, today the sweet girl is full moon, and our hospital arranged for me to take the position of the head nurse yesterday, but it's not the light of the sweet girl."

Ruan Yu had also heard Nurse Yang mention this matter before, the head nurse of their department left for personal reasons more than ten days ago and went to the province, and the position of head nurse was vacant, and it was never determined who would take over. I didn't expect it to fall on Nurse Yang yesterday.

Promotions are naturally a good thing, Ruan Yu first said congratulations, and then said, "Sister Yang is really joking, the sweet girl is so small, she doesn't even know what the blessing is, where is this ability to make you naked?" Obviously, Sister Yang has the ability herself, I really hope that Tianniu can become a person like you in the future. ”

Ruan Yu has been giving birth for a month, her face is ruddy, her face is round, and she looks very pleasing, which is so nice that Nurse Yang feels that her red envelopes are less.

The two adults talked loudly, and they didn't notice the children.

Nurse Yang's son Zhu Wei was impatient to stay by the adult's side, and he jumped to the cradle, stood on tiptoe and stretched out his head to look in, and suddenly called out, "Mother, you lied to me, she is so ugly!" ”

Nurse Yang was immediately embarrassed, the little baby really couldn't see how good-looking, but Tianniu's eyes were black, bright and big, just looking at the eyes were a beautiful embryo, she liked it every time she saw it, and she didn't know what kind of eyes her son was.

Fortunately, Ruan Yu was generous, and he didn't bother with the children when he heard this, and he still smiled. Nurse Yang was even more embarrassed not to say a word about her son, "You say that your sister is ugly now, if you regret it and want to play with your sister in the future, I will definitely let your Uncle Ou stop you, and it will be useless for you to regret it then." ”

"I don't regret it, and I won't think she's good-looking in the future!" Zhu Wei didn't realize that the atmosphere was wrong, and continued to express his opinion loudly, and Nurse Yang covered her mouth and dragged the kid out.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Ou family went out not long after dawn, and it was already ten o'clock when they arrived at the third child's house. said that he was here to help, but in fact, he was looking at the child and gossiping with Ruan Yu. Mrs. Zhang had been here once before, but the two sisters-in-law had seen her little niece for the first time.

Qin Liuya followed everyone and took a look, but he didn't expect that this glance, his eyes seemed to have taken root, and it was difficult to move away.

Everyone else looks at the child, but what she notices is the cradle.

The cradle was made of wood, and there was a fence next to it, the corners of which were polished in a gentle arc, and she could not recognize what it was, but she could see that the exterior was still painted, and there was no sunlight in the room, and it was all bright and moist. The woman sitting next to her gently pushed the cradle and swayed, making the little baby lying in it giggle.

Obviously they are all children of the Ou family, her children, her late girl gave birth to a cradle for half a year, and she found a carpenter in the village to fight, using the wood on the back mountain, and at that time I felt that it was very good to be smooth and without burrs.

When Xiao Yong was born, the evening girl was also older, and there was no need for it, so this cradle was given to Xiao Yong again.

It is said to be a cradle, but it is actually a small bed, which cannot be shaken, and there is no guardrail, so it must be placed against the wall on one side and blocked by a high-backed stool on the other side, otherwise I am always worried that the child will accidentally roll to the ground.

The third family is a girl, why is it better than her Xiaoyong?

Qin Liuya thought about it, and her nose was a little sour.

He Xiaohe, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Ou family, walked to the door of the house and realized that something seemed to be wrong, and when she looked back, the second brother and sister were still staring at the child in a daze.

She also has a girl in her own family, why can't she keep her eyes on other people's little girls?

He Xiaohe felt a little funny, but as the eldest daughter-in-law, she felt that she still had the obligation to help take care of her younger brother and daughter-in-law. So he went over and patted her on the shoulder and reminded her, "What's the fuss?" I'm going out for a drink. ”

Qin Liuya raised her head suddenly, her eyes were red.

"This ...... What's going on? ”

He Xiaohe was taken aback by her like this, thinking if she was not responsible under her hands, and her hands hurt her a little harder.

"Nothing, just got something in my eyes."

This was a perfunctory excuse, He Xiaohe only thought that she was really hurt, and she was embarrassed to say it, and she didn't get to the bottom of it.
