Chapter 2: Years in the Mountains (2)

In fact, Xia Ruixi didn't want Ou Qingjin to be by her side, nor did she not want to call his name, nor was she painless or tired, she just felt that no matter whether she cried or shouted, it would be useless, no matter what misfortune happened in Xijing City, she still had to continue to live with her children.

Breastfeeding, adults are stupid, newborn babies are stupid.

After Xia Ruixi sweated and changed several positions, he reluctantly put the exit of the "grain" into the child's mouth.

The child is not very good at sucking, so he sucks casually and falls asleep. Xia Ruixi knows that there is no "food" in her "granary" now, but she still has to suck it for her child, which must stimulate the secretion of milk. She remembers that when her colleague gave birth, the doctor told her that way. And colostrum is very important, it contains a lot of antibodies, which can help children increase their resistance.

Xia Ruixi was very afraid that he had no milk, the conditions were not good, there was no nurse, and there was nothing to replace milk powder and the like, even cow's milk and goat's milk could not be found. Although there are many children raised in this way, she can't imagine that her children have no milk to eat.

In the era of lack of medical treatment and medicine, and the age of not being able to inject vaccines, she couldn't think of any other good way to make his body stronger than to let her child absorb as much of the nutrients and antibodies in breast milk as possible.

Looking at this little confusion who only cares about sleeping, Xia Ruixi reluctantly flicked his upper auricle again (this is a good way to wake up the baby, everyone remember, maybe one day in the future, quack). The child immediately woke up in pain, frowned reddened, opened half of his eyes in confusion, and while he was pouting, Xia Ruixi hurriedly stuffed another "granary" into his mouth, wanting to coax him to suck two sips quickly, whether there was or not, how much stimulation it.

The child was so quiet that he barely cried. His mouth was still deflated, and as soon as he touched his mother's body, he was quiet. He took a few more sucks this time, but because there was nothing to suck on, he only took a few breaths, and he gave up with a lack of interest, closed his eyes and went back to sleep.

Xia Ruixi had no choice but to give up, thinking about asking Wang Zhou to boil a pair of lactation-boosting drugs that she had prepared earlier, and then get some lactation-boosting medicinal food to eat. She longed for milk to come out and feed her baby right away.

Although it was a smooth birth, the physical strength consumed was really not small, and a few simple actions made her just changed clean clothes soaked with sweat again. The hair is also damp and sticky and uncomfortable. Xia Ruixi actually hopes most that he can take a hot shower, but unfortunately, it is an extravagant hope, not to mention that the conditions are not allowed, and Wang Zhou's will definitely not agree.

Xia Ruixi helplessly glanced at the window crack that was not much wider than a hair, took a clean cloth towel from the bedside, wiped the sweat on his face and neck, and found a more comfortable position to lie down. Lower your head and take a closer look at what this child looks like, like her or like Ou Qingjin.

Because of the squeeze of the birth canal, the child is not very good-looking. The head is a little flat, I hope it will grow round in the future, and I can generally see that the contours of the face are still like Ou Qingjin, the nose is very straight, and the mouth is like her, not big, a little fleshy. The eyebrows and hair are not very good, yellow and hairy on the scalp, the eyelashes are not long and curled like his father, and the few small roots are close to the eyelids, and they can be counted. The hair on the ears and cheeks was black and long, but unfortunately it was in the wrong place. The hands and feet are a bit big, and he should be a tall man in the future.

Xia Ruixi sighed a little frustratedly, she knew that the child's hair would be so bad, and she should have eaten more walnuts at that time, regardless of whether he was effective or not, she fulfilled her responsibility. I don't know what kind of expression Ou Qingjin will have when he sees this little thing? She felt a little sad when she thought about it, what happened to him?

The door squeaked softly, and Wang Zhoushi came in with a bowl of hot chicken soup and a few freshly fried poached eggs, and said with a smile: "Young grandma, get up and eat something." ”

Xia Ruixi looked at the thick layer of oil on the chicken soup, and he was a little stunned, so he turned to look at the poached eggs, Mom, what the hell, the poached eggs were fried in oil, and boiled in thick brown sugar water, the viscous brown sugar juice was shining with oil, and it was greasy to eat it.

Wang Zhoushi saw that she was not angry, thinking that she was not good, and said in embarrassment: "This is not better than home, the conditions are not very good, only this, the chicken is still caught and raised by Si Shao a long time ago, the eggs are very fresh, and they are born by these geniuses." You endure to eat some, you have to eat some to get better. ”

Xia Ruixi knew that Wang Zhou had misunderstood, and said with a smile: "It's good, I just think it's too greasy." By the way, when will I have milk? Feed your baby some water first, shall you? "Newborn babies must be fed well, even if there is no milk, they must be fed with water, otherwise they will be dehydrated.

Wang Zhoushi heard that he didn't think things were bad, so he rejoiced: "It's not greasy, it's not greasy at all, and the oil soup is milky." If you think there's too much oil on the chicken broth, I'll skim it off. Let's eat eggs first, don't look bad, but this egg is the most nourishing. Don't worry, you should have milk tomorrow. ”

Xia Ruixi endured and ate two poached eggs, and the chicken soup that Wang Zhou made again came. She took the child over to feed the water, and said to Xia Ruixi: "The daughter-in-law of Aunt Wu's family on the cliff has a milk doll, and I have already asked Hua Laohu to ask for milk, so let's respond to the emergency first." ”

It is said that there are a few acres of thin land on the slopes of the mountain, and they will farm when they are busy, and they will go to the mountains to find some mountain treasures and hunt when they are slack.

On that day, Aunt Wu brought her youngest son to send a badger. Xia Ruixi glanced in the window, Aunt Wu was about forty years old, the youngest son was only in his teens, both of them were wearing gray burlap clothes, home-made straw sandals, thick hands and feet, dark skin, bright eyes, and a loud voice. At that time, Wang Zhou gave them some rice to thank them, and the little son was as happy as if he was something, and repeatedly said that he could leave it for his nephew to eat.

Xia Ruixi has never seen Aunt Wu's daughter-in-law, and she doesn't know if she is healthy or not? She was a little uneasy about asking her child to eat a stranger's milk. It's not that I dislike it, but I'm worried that there will be some liver disease or something, and it's too late to regret it at that time.

She wanted Wang Zhou's to stop asking for milk, but when she saw Wang Zhou's excited and enthusiastic appearance, she couldn't say anything. Forget it, since she has already asked for it, she will ask for it, take it back, and she will find another excuse not to feed it.

"Sister-in-law Wang, the road is far away, it's getting dark again, Hua Lao doesn't know when he will come back, and he doesn't know how much milk he can get back. It's better to boil some soup first and wait, and prepare more. What do you think? ”

Wang Zhou replied with a smile: "Young grandma is thoughtful, I am already ready." "She is a person who has treated children, and she is also very capable, and she knows what to do. With an experienced person like her by her side, Xia Ruixi can still save a lot of effort.

Xia Ruixi took her hand and stuffed a red envelope that she had prepared yesterday into her hand: "Sister-in-law Wang, these days, thanks to you." According to our customs, the delivery must have a red envelope. It's inconvenient to go out, meaning meaning. ”

Wang Zhou's face flushed: "I don't want it." Young grandma, I'm ......" She is grateful for her kindness, not for anything.

Xia Ruixi smiled and said, "You really want to help, don't you?" I'm also sincere, if you want to be auspicious, don't shirk it. ”

Wang Zhoushi heard her say that it was Tujili, so he didn't shirk it anymore, stuffed the red envelope into his sleeve, and said with a smile: "Then thank you to the fourth young grandmother." The matter of the little young master's milking, originally the fourth young man let a female goat to raise and milk the cow, but before you came, when you took it to the wolf, you were trying to get another one, you came, and if you didn't go out, you didn't find a suitable one. ”

Xia Ruixi's eyelids jumped: "Wolf? What about the little yellow? Let him in. "She's been here for a few days, and why hasn't she heard a wolf howl at night? There are wolves, how dare they let the little yellow go around?

Wang Zhou knew that she was frightened at a glance, and said with a smile: "Don't be afraid." The wolves won't come here, it's autumn, and the rabbits and chickens in the mountains are fat, and they have something to eat. Besides, after the sheep was lost a few days ago, Hua Laohu also made an appointment with Aunt Wu's family, killed several wolves that came to this area, skinned them, and dried them in the wind, and they didn't dare to come again. After a few days, as soon as Aunt Wu's big dog and puppy under the big black came out of the nest, I asked the tiger to pick up two to raise, and the wolf didn't dare to come. ”

Xia Ruixi grinned reluctantly: "At that time, you lived here alone with little yellow, weren't you afraid?" Your family didn't live in the mountains before, did they? ”

Wang Zhou pouted: "Don't be afraid." My mother's family lives at the foot of the mountain, and I've seen wolves too. It is afraid of people in the end, and unless it is extremely hungry, it generally does not dare to come to people's homes to make trouble. I just have to keep an eye on the kids, keep the doors and windows closed at night, and I have a machete. Besides, if the beast dares to come, I'll kill it. ”

Xia Ruixi was a little ashamed and changed the topic: "Wait a while, boil the packet of medicine in my baggage for me to drink, it's to promote lactation." I'm afraid that there is no milk, and if there is no milk, what can I do? ”

Wang Zhou looked at Xia Ruixi with pity, although she had just given birth and her body was fuller than when she first saw it, her breasts and body were still not as plump as the other mothers she had seen. The children of large families have wet nurses, and there are no young grandmothers who nurse their own children. But Xia Ruixi obviously has to rely on her own milk children, and it is difficult for her not to complain.

Wang Zhou comforted her: "Don't worry, young grandmother, although you have lost a little weight, it doesn't necessarily mean that your milk is not good." There is a kind of person, like you, who is very thin, but the milk is very good, and a child can't eat it all, and can raise the child to be fat and fat, I think you are probably like this. "But I thought to myself, if there is really no milk or not enough milk to eat, it will be really troublesome.
