This year's spring came very early.

It's a mountain that goes on and on.

From a distance, the peak towers into the clouds, reaching a good tacit understanding with the sky, seamlessly connected, as if connected with the sky into a channel, beautiful, like a fairyland.

At the foot of a mountain, there are dozens of families, criss-crossed, are layers of stone houses, around the house, purple and red, birds singing and flowers, in the thin fog, hazy and ethereal.

Before the sky opened, in front of the first-floor stone slab house, there was a crowd of people, men, women and children, constantly looking into the room.

"Are you going to give birth?"

Someone spoke, and in an instant, the crowd began to talk.

"Come on, I can't hear you!"

"The midwife has been in for a long time, and I heard that she was invited from the town, and it cost a lot of money!"

"There's no way, the road is impassable, it's too far to go to the county seat!"

"This Chen Lin and his family are also hard, you said, they have been married for ten years, and finally have a child, and now he is in his early thirties!"

"This woman, the older she gets, the more laborious it is to give birth to a child, and you must not find any moths elsewhere!"

"You say, is it going to be a boy or a girl?"

"Look at the daughter-in-law of the Lao Lin family, her belly is pointy, she must be a boy, maybe it's a twin!"

"Hope it's a boy!"

In the midst of the crowd's discussions, suddenly, a cry came from the room.

At this moment, far east, a morning light pierced the darkness, the sky began to whiten, and a white cloud floated over a mountain peak, revealing a charming smile.

"It's raw!" I don't know who shouted, and the crowd rushed into the house.

In a room, on a bed, there was a beautiful woman, at this moment, she was sweating profusely, her face was pale, she was holding a baby, and her pale face showed a loving smile.

This is a newborn baby, smart and cute, very quiet, in the mother's arms, blinking with big eyes.

"Prepare hot water and wash the child!" It was a fat woman who was a midwife.

"Okay!" A young man, standing up from the side of the bed, who spoke little and seemed to be very honest, heard the midwife's command, and he hurriedly got up.

However, as soon as he took a step, he smiled bitterly, the door was blocked, and he couldn't get out at all.

"It's strange, I only cried a few times, and I didn't cry anymore!" At the door, someone said.

"Is it a boy or a girl?" Someone asked.

"Girl!" The youth said.

"What?" In the crowd, voices of disappointment sounded one after another, and in a sigh, the crowd dispersed.

In an instant, there were only four people left in the entire room, the midwife, Chen Lin, his wife and children.

"What's wrong with the girl? What's wrong with these people? The midwife said with a calm face, "Boys and girls, aren't they all the same?" Aren't they all the same, and it's my parents' heart? ”

"It doesn't matter if it's a boy or a girl!" The woman on the bed spoke, looking at the child in her arms, full of doting color, "Look, how well-behaved this child is, these eyes, as if she can speak, no matter what, we will bring her up!" ”

"Brother, sister-in-law, hot water is here!" At this moment, a crisp sound came, like a lark, which was very good.

This is a girl, eighteen years old, beautiful and generous, her appearance is somewhat similar to the young man in the room.

At this moment, she carried a wooden barrel and ran into the room.

"I'm coming!" The midwife laughed, took the baby from the woman's hand, and carefully placed it in the barrel.

"Xiao Rong, you are educated, marry your child!" The woman on the bed said softly.

"Yikes! It's so beautiful, it's grown up, and it's definitely a beauty embryo! Giggles! Chen Rongjiao laughed and squatted by the wooden barrel, "Actually, I have already thought about it, if it is a boy, it will be called Chen Xi, the hope of Xi!" ”

"What about the girls?" Chen Lin asked.

"Our Daliang Mountain, in the southwest direction, I originally wanted to call it Xiaoxi, east and west, north and south, but I don't think it's good!" Chen Rong's eyes flashed, "There you have it!" ”

"What's it called?" Chen Lin and his wife asked in unison, looking expectant.

"As soon as she was born, the sky dawned!" Chen Rong thought for a while and said, "Brother, sister-in-law, look, is this good?" ”

"Chenxi, Chen Xi!" Chen Rong said, excited, "Brother, sister-in-law, she will be called Chen Xi in the future, Chen Xiaoxi!" Morning light, meaning bright, I hope that in the future, she can walk out of Daliang Mountain and have a bright future! ”

"Good! Good! Chen Lin laughed, sat on the edge of the bed, and hugged his wife, "Xiaoxi, okay, she will be called Xiaoxi in the future!" ”

"You girl, you are different, different from those people in the village, and you have a vision!" The midwife looked up and praised.

"You have to take care of the child, No, I'll dry her, wrap the towel, it's just spring, don't catch a cold!"

The midwife handed over the child to Chen Rong, turned her head, looked at the woman on the bed, and admonished, "And you, just after giving birth, your body is very weak, you are already very desperate just now, remember, don't eat cold things, sleep at night, cover your feet, don't be cold, otherwise, there will be many gynecological diseases in the future, and you will suffer!" ”

"Thank you!" Mr. and Mrs. Chen Lin thanked him.

"It's your money!" Chen Rong took out a few crumpled pieces of money from her pocket and handed them to the midwife.

"You keep it, I heard that your kid is preparing to take the normal university entrance examination, it's not easy!" The midwife said with a smile, looking at the child in Chen Rong's arms, "Your generation, be more courageous, I hope that their generation can have a good educational environment...... Ay! ”

"No, you have to keep this money, you come all the way to ......" Chen Rong didn't follow and stuffed the money into the midwife's hand.

"If you keep it, keep it!" The midwife resolutely didn't want to, and put the money in Chen Rong's pocket, "After graduation, you should know how to do it!" ”

"This girl, I like it tightly, I used to, I worked in a hospital, I know some nursing, so I do this occasionally, whenever I see a child born, I am very happy, she is a new life, like the sun in the sky, as you said, it is hope, it is light!"

"Chen Xi, what a name!" The midwife said, stepping away and walking outside.

"I'll send you!" Chen Rong shouted.

"Stay!" The midwife waved her hand, "My son came with me, walking in the mountains, but he is not afraid, besides, the sun is out, what do I need to be afraid of?" Girl, your sister-in-law is in confinement, Xiaoxi, you have to take care of it, didn't you say it? Chen Xi, Chenxi, she brings light and hope to people! ”

"You're good to go!" Chen Rong said softly.

"Xiao Rong, come on, let me see the child!" The woman on the bed shouted.

"Sister-in-law, you should have a good rest! Catch the market tomorrow, I'll go to the market to buy you some supplements! Chen Rong said, "This child, I like it so much, holding her, reluctant to let go, giggle!" ”

At this moment, a ray of sunlight shone into the room through the window, and the child in his arms turned his big eyes, which were exceptionally bright.
