"Don't go." He said, "With such a big belly, what if you live in the ground for the rest of your life?" ”

"No, it won't." "I'm getting by, it's still early." ”

"You'd better stay at home." Cheng Jiahua said again, at this time, Cheng Tielong and Mu Shi walked slowly, and when they heard their conversation, Cheng Tielong said nothing, only Mu Shi turned his head and glanced at Hedi, and said perfunctorily: "Don't go." ”

"Mom, I'm fine." He Tu hurriedly said, as if he was in a hurry to show himself, "It's so busy in the field now, one more person will have one more helper, I'm okay." ”

Hearing her say this, Mu Shi stopped talking, turned his head and walked outside. He Tu glanced at Cheng Jiahua and followed in the footsteps of his mother-in-law. Cheng Jiahua didn't even want to say much because of the tiredness of the day, since his wife was so stubborn, he didn't want to say anything, anyway, he was by his side, just take care of her a little more later.

It's autumn, but the sun is still scorching. By noon, Hedi's body was already drenched with sweat. She is inconvenient, but her movements are still agile, and she is generally comparable to the labor force of Jiahua, but after a long time, she can't support it, especially when exposed to the sun, she feels that the heat and tiredness are blended, and she is about to melt in this ground. It was easy to see the father-in-law, who was far ahead of him, standing up, beckoning to them, signaling that they could go back and rest, and then he slowly stood up with his waist up.

"How?" Cheng Jiahua hurriedly caught up to hold her arm, and couldn't help but be a little worried when she saw Hedi's face pale and sweat dripping down her cheeks.

"It's fine." He Tu picked up the kettle on the ridge, took a large sip of water into his mouth, and raised his hand to wipe his mouth.

"Let's go, let's go back."

Lunch was made together at breakfast, and when we went back, it was just hot, and everyone ate casually, and we were ready to rest. He Tu slowly lay down backwards, feeling a sense of relief in her body, and just as she closed her eyes and was about to fall asleep, her abdomen suddenly twitched violently, and she almost screamed in pain.

She was sweating and half-propped up, her right hand was on her stomach, and her heart began to panic. Fortunately, there was no reaction after this convulsion, and the pain gradually subsided, and her tense body slowly relaxed.

At this time, Cheng Jiahua came in. When he saw Hedi's pale face and tense movements, he was a little frightened, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "What's wrong with you?" Does your stomach hurt? ”

He Tu nodded weakly, was helped by Jia Hua to lie down, and listened to him say: "I told you not to go, you are in a special period now, and you still have to toss yourself like this, what if something really happens?" ”

He listened silently and didn't say a word. She began to get scared, frightened of her previous overconfidence and recklessness. She closed her eyes and wanted to relax herself, but she didn't listen to a word of what Cheng Jiahua said later.

When he got up in the afternoon, Cheng Jiahua told Mu Shi about it. Although Hedi was not in front of them, he still heard Mu Shi's voice from a distance through the curtain, and only heard her say: "There are so many things to be pregnant, I won't be like this at that time." Forget it, just let her stay at home, and cook for us by the way, otherwise there will always be leftovers. ”

She felt very uncomfortable, and she gradually developed a sense of guilt, feeling that it was her fault that she was pregnant and could not help her family. She didn't feel that it was already very hard for a woman to be pregnant, and her in-laws should take good care of themselves, but began to blame herself for why her body was so weak. She tried to sit up, but after the pain of noon, her body became very tired, and she felt uncomfortable when she moved a little. Eventually, she lay back, panting slightly, looking at the snow-white ceiling with a desperate expression.

After the gate slammed shut, the courtyard became dead silent. He Tu closed his eyes, rested for a while, felt that his body was not so heavy, and then slowly sat up. She gently stroked her belly and murmured, "Little one, come out quickly, don't toss your mother, your mother can't afford to toss." As if in response to her words, her belly twitched slightly, as if the fetus was touching the wall of her womb with its hand. He smiled lightly, feeling a little comfort in his heart, stretched out his feet to put on his shoes, and prepared to clean up the dishes and basins that he had not had time to clean after lunch.

After more than a month of such days, Mu Shi's attitude towards her gradually cooled down, and the two seemed to be entering a period of cold war again. It's just that Hetu's due date is approaching, and I can't spare more energy to think about and study my mother-in-law's performance, but I think to myself: "Cold war, cold war, for the sake of the child, I can't be too tired of making my body tired." With such thoughts, her mentality calmed down, only Na Mu Shi said some infuriating things every day, or deliberately threw away a large family's clothes for Hetu to wash, and let her clean the huge courtyard every day, not caring at all that Hetu was about to give birth. He Tu didn't say anything, just did things silently, but fortunately, these jobs were not very tiring, and he could barely do them.

When the footsteps of time stepped into October, Hetu was born.

It was two o'clock in the morning, and the whole family was already asleep. In her shallow sleep, Hetu suddenly felt a sharp convulsion and pain in her abdomen, and she almost fainted in pain. She fumbled and grabbed Cheng Jiahua, who was snoring beside her, and shouted with a wheez: "Jiahua!" Add birch! ”

Cheng Jiahua woke up from her dream and looked at her with a blank expression, not knowing why. It wasn't until he saw Hedi's pale face and her clutched stomach in the dark that he woke up, hurriedly rolled over and got out of bed, and ran to his parents' bedroom before he had time to put on his shoes.

He was so painful that she almost had to roll on the bed, but with such a big belly, she felt tired when she turned over, and she could barely move. She bit her lip in despair, almost mad at the pain. When the lights came on in the courtyard, the mother-in-law hurried into the house with a woman, who was already fainting. The woman quickly packed up her things with her hands and feet, and asked Mu Shi to help her take this and that, while encouraging Hedi, she said loudly: "Hold on a little longer, hard!" If you don't use force, the child will die inside! She seemed to want to talk to Hetu, but she didn't want to Hetu, and her instinctive reaction was, "Let her die, let her die, I'm dying of pain." But the thought was only fleeting, and soon he regained his strength, grasping the sheets with both hands, and listening to the midwife's command. Finally, she felt a sudden emptiness in her abdomen, an inexplicable thing was pulled out of her lower body, and then, the loud cry of the baby startled all around, everyone's spirits were lifted, and the night seemed to be less heavy.

"Boys and girls?" Mu Shi shouted anxiously, her vision was blocked by the midwife, and she couldn't see the child's appearance at all. The midwife cut the umbilical cord, put the baby in the warm water that had been prepared a long time ago, washed it, and then dried it and put it in the small mattress and wrapped it, and turned around and handed it to Mu Shi.

"Girl." The midwife smiled, her eyes full of pity.

At that moment, Mu Shi's eyes flickered and dimmed, but soon, her attention was attracted by the little baby wrapped in the mattress, and she hurriedly reached out to take the child, and laughed and teased her.

"Ouch, look at this little face, wrinkled." Mu Shi smiled, and suddenly felt that his heart was about to melt. The midwife turned around and was busy tidying up Hetu, who had collapsed on the bed, while pulling up the curtain that had been hung up temporarily, and Mu Shi beckoned Cheng Jiahua to come in and let him see his little daughter.

He Tu stared at the ceiling blankly, the midwife had already shown her the appearance of the child just now, wrinkled, dry and thin, almost the size of a palm. The midwife told her that it was because her nutrition during pregnancy was too insufficient, and her body was thin, and she was only about 90 pounds when she was pregnant, how big could the child be. It seems that the day after tomorrow should be well nourished, otherwise the child will be weak and may be a sick body in the future.

He Tu took a breath and closed her eyes, she didn't want to listen to these words, she felt very tired, she just wanted to get a good night's sleep. Through the curtain, she heard Mu Shi and her husband teasing their daughter, and no one thought to come to see her, and she felt that she had been neglected, and the unbearable feeling almost pierced her heart like a needle, and made her feel miserable.

Probably because she was too tired, she quickly fell asleep. By the time I woke up, it was already dawn, the temporary curtains had been removed, and there was no one in the room. She was so sleepy that she didn't even feel that someone was turning her body and tidying herself and the bed. Twisting her head, she felt some strength in her body, and she supported herself with her arms, trying to sit up.

The pointer on the table was already pointing to 9, and the sun was shining warmly on the window, and some sunlight was shining on Hedi's face, illuminating her face almost transparently. She was very hungry and wanted to find something to eat, and just as she stretched out her feet to get out of bed, there was a sudden sound of footsteps outside the door, and Mu Shi opened the curtain and walked in.

"Are you awake?" Mu Shi smiled, his attitude was very different from before. He Tu looked at her in surprise, not knowing what to say for a moment. Mu Shi took the plate in his hand, put a bowl of fragrant chicken soup and a bowl of porridge in front of her, and said, "Eat something to replenish your body." ”

He agreed, still vigilant in his heart. What does mother-in-law mean by this, does this mean that the cold war between them has passed? Mu Shiyan smiled at Yan Yan, I can't see him a few times a year, what's wrong today? Why did he suddenly become so good to her. He Tu wondered in his heart, was it because he gave birth to a child? By the way, what about the kids? Where did that crumply, ugly little baby with a big palm go? He Tu craned his neck and looked around, his mood becoming anxious.

"Child, your father-in-law hugs it, you eat first, and I'll bring it to you after eating." Mu Shi saw what was on her mind, said lightly, got up and went out.

He Tu was so hungry that she devoured the bowl of porridge and ate the chicken in the bowl, and then slowly drank the soup. I have to say that my mother-in-law's cooking skills are really good, the chicken is very tender, the soup is also very delicious, and the soup is very satisfying. After she finished eating, after a while, Mu Shi came in with the child in his arms. The child was crying with his mouth open, as if he was hungry.

Before Mu Shi could walk up to him, he hurriedly stretched out his arm. When the child arrived in her arms, he immediately stopped crying, and looked at her with a pair of curious big eyes, babbling in his mouth.

Seeing this scene, even Mu Shi smiled and said: "Her grandfather coaxed her for a long time and didn't coax her, but it will be fine as soon as she arrives in your arms, it seems that she still kisses her mother." She picked up the empty bowls and said, "Feed the child, he may be hungry." ”

He agreed, and when the mother-in-law went out, she clumsily lifted her clothes to feed the child. It's just that she really doesn't have enough experience, and she has been bitten by that little mouth several times and hurts, but there is nothing. She got up in a hurry and squeezed hard with her hands, but there was still nothing, and her chest was in great pain.

After a while, Mu Shi came in, and when he saw the scene in front of him, he couldn't help frowning, "You can't be unexpected, right?" ”

He Tu raised his head and nodded embarrassed and shyly.

"You're too skinny." Mu Shi said, "The midwife said last night, your body is not good, and you have to make up for it in the future." She said, taking the child from Hedi's hand, "I'll feed her some batter." ”

Seeing the child being picked up by her mother-in-law, she couldn't help but start to hate herself, why didn't she have anything at all? Will her first child grow up without breast milk? Look at that small body, it is so thin, the hair on the top of the head is dry and yellow, and there is no weight at all in the arms. He sighed heavily, and he didn't know what to do.

After that, the mother-in-law began to cook more varied, and she gave Hetu some highly nutritious meals every day to promote lactation. Fortunately, the action finally paid off, and a week later, when the child was lying in Hedi's arms with his eyes closed and enjoying, Hetu finally felt a little satisfied.

Since she has given birth to a child and has to be confined, she does not have to do the work at home. She either ate or slept every day, and soon gained weight, her originally thin face became round, and her eyes began to shine. It's just that the child is still thin and small, all because she doesn't have much material, and the child is still in a state of not having enough to eat. When there is no milk, Mu Shi will take the child and feed her the batter mixed with milk powder one bite at a time. Because of this, Mu Shi also said more than once in front of Hetu how expensive the milk powder is now, and he bought it at his own expense, and he must remember to pay her back when he has money in the future. He Tu nodded silently every time, but where did she have the money, although Jia Hua went out to work before, but she didn't earn much, she saved it for emergencies, where was she willing to take it out and give it to Mu Shi. Moreover, she also felt that since she was Mu Shi's granddaughter, it was understandable for Mu Shi to spend some money to buy milk powder for her granddaughter.

But having said that, the milk powder has not been broken, and the child is still growing up day by day. Grandpa gave her a name, Cheng Yan, which is the same as her person, she is all smart. It's just that the midwife said a word, and the child is really a sick body, although it is not a stubborn disease, but he often has a fever and cold, and his little face is always red. However, her fever came and went quickly, the first few times she went to the hospital, and then she basically didn't go, let her lie on the bed, feed some hot soup, and as soon as the sweat came out, the fever went down. He Tu was also worried that such repeated burns would have an impact on the child, but he couldn't find anything in the hospital, and then looked at Xiao Chengyan, who could still eat and sleep, and played by himself when he was awake, very well-behaved, and there was nothing unusual at all. He gradually put his mind at ease, thinking that the child might be too weak, but it was not a big problem.
