Chapter 237: New Life
Liu Meibao felt that she had slept for a long time, but sometimes she felt that she was awake, for example, she heard Lu Yan and Zhou Liangyu arguing by her bedside, they were arguing fiercely, but Liu Meibao couldn't hear what they were arguing about.
“… Whoever asked you to come, you should worry about your own daughter-in-law and son..."
Liu Meibao only heard this sentence clearly, and then the two words of her son made her consciousness smart.
Son! Child!
I'm giving birth! My baby!
She shouted as hard as she could, a pair of large hands holding hers.
"Mabel." Lu Yan's surprised face broke into her sight, "You're awake, you're awake, it's great..."
He held her hand tightly, pressed against his face, the thick stubble stinging.
Pain means it's real.
"Where's the kid?" Liu Meibao's consciousness gradually recovered, and she immediately asked.
She felt that she had spoken out loud, but the voice that came out of her mouth was weak, like a mosquito.
"Kid." But Lu Yan heard it very clearly, and immediately turned his head and said.
Liu Meibao followed his line of sight and saw a small wooden bed next to the bed, surrounded by flower bedding, and he couldn't see the inside clearly.
The servant woman bent down and carefully took out a small quilt from inside.
"Ma'am.." She said with tears in her eyes, "Look at the little master."
Raw... It's the son...
Liu Meibao immediately wanted to sit up, but the room was full of people in a panic to stop it.
Lu Yan reached out to support her and let her lean into his arms.
The little swaddling clothes were handed over by the servant, and Liu Meibao held her breath and looked at the little head exposed inside.
His hair was wet and black and he was sticking to his head, his wrinkled little face, his swollen eyelids, his head tilted, and his small fist resting on his ear, and he was sleeping soundly.
Liu Meibao stared blankly, and couldn't help but stretch out her hand to poke the child's face.
The servant woman couldn't help belching, and subconsciously wanted to hide.
The child moved his head because of the sudden interruption.
"Ma'am.." The servant woman shouted with some grumbling.
Liu Meibao smiled a little embarrassedly.
"Why didn't he open his eyes?" She couldn't help but ask. Looking at Lu Yan with a little worry, she has been giving birth for a long time, will she be hypoxic? Could it be that there is something wrong with the brain.....
"He just fell asleep, and he was crying louder just now, which is tired of crying." Lu Yan smiled and kissed her face.
The servant woman who stood beside them and had nothing to hide, blushed and bowed her head to avoid it.
"Really?" Liu Meibao was still a little skeptical, and looked at Lu Yan, "I don't believe your words." You always report good news and not bad news. ”
Speaking of this, when I think of this incident, my eyes can't help but redden.
"Really, I didn't lie to you, I said it's okay, it's okay, no matter what, as long as I tell you like this, it must be okay." Lu Yan looked at her and said word by word.
The servant woman quietly withdrew from the child in her arms and put the child into the cot. With a wave of her hand, the servants in the house immediately retreated.
Only their family of three was left in the room.
"Are you really okay?" Liu Meibao asked.
"The eldest lady said. You have just given birth and should not sit. Lu Yan didn't answer, but helped her lie down carefully.
Liu Meibao also felt that her body was as weak as hollowing out, and she lay down according to her words.
"How long have I been asleep?" She asked, turning her head to look at the window, which seemed to be dark outside.
Lu Yan took her hand in his hand and simply sat on the ground. This way you can be at eye level with her.
"It's been a day." He replied, gently stroking her hair.
"Don't move, it's dirty.." Liu Meibao shook her head and said.
I was sweating all over my body. It will definitely not be scrubbed in the confinement, it must smell.
Lu Yan smiled and simply kissed her face.
"Mabel, you've suffered." He whispered.
Liu Meibao shook her head and smiled, reaching out to hug his head.
"You're more tired." She whispered.
The husband and wife snuggled quietly for a while.
"Is my brother gone?" Liu Meibao asked hurriedly when she remembered something.
"Gone." Lu Yan said, he was concise and to the point, and did not say much.
"I heard you arguing?" Liu Meibao asked, also a little unsure.
Lu Yan smiled and reached out to stroke her forehead.
"No, what a fight." He laughed.
This production is a bit dangerous, as a mother's family, I must ask Lu Yan, Liu Meibao smiled, and no longer asked.
"What the hell is going on out there?" She paused for a moment before slowly asking, "How could that maid...?" ”
Lu Yan didn't want to talk to her about this, but she was afraid that she would not be good for her body if she was thinking about it.
"That maid was sold by the housekeeper, and was brought back by the Ji family, and she instigated to do something slandering you and me in front of others." He held her hand and said slowly, "I took every precaution, but I didn't prevent them from being so bad at stimulating you, I shouldn't have listened to Wang Mo's words and left you here, if it happened..."
Ordinary people will definitely be frightened when they see their mouths cursed and die in front of them, let alone pregnant women who are about to give birth.
His voice was trembling, and Liu Meibao could feel his deep fear.
"I have survived two Tartar plagues, and no matter how miserable she died, can she be worse than those soldiers who died in bloody battles? Those who are missing arms and legs and suffering from various injuries are dying little by little in front of my eyes, I have seen this scene, what else do I have to be afraid of, this is also a coincidence, Wen Po also said, I am a full-term birth, and it has nothing to do with this matter. She squeezed Lu Yan's hand and comforted him.
"This is all due to my refusal at the beginning, and I laughed wildly, which is what the elders often say that trouble comes from the mouth." Lu Yan clenched her hand and whispered.
"It's not because of that, you just rejected it at the beginning, and today's incident will be due to other reasons." Liu Meibao said with a smile, "In fact, what is a family matter, the root is still interests, you touch their interests and make them uneasy, these wealthy families, just like big capitalists, for the sake of interests, there is nothing they dare not do." ”
Lu Yan didn't speak, remembering his daughter-in-law's words in his heart, and preparing to think about it later.
"Mabel, it's me who tired you, you married me, and you haven't had a day of peace of mind...."He said with a sigh.
"Oh, you fool." Liu Meibao interrupted him with a smile, "I will marry you, eat and drink without worry, do whatever you want, and say whatever you want." Laugh if you want to laugh, cry if you want to cry, you are honest with me, without the slightest deception, I am afraid that there is no second woman in this world who can live like me, this is not called peace of mind, it is really God can't stand it. ”
Lu Yan looked at her and leaned over to get closer to her face.
"What you say always makes me happy. I can't speak.." He muttered.
"Men's families do things, it is always more difficult to do well than to say, you can do the rare things, let me the easy things." Liu Meibao smiled and reached out to rub his face.
Lu Yan didn't speak again, just reached out and hugged her tightly, and the two hugged quietly, both of them had a feeling like the rest of their lives.
A baby's cry shattered the silence in the room.
"He's awake, let's see what's wrong?" Liu Meibao was busy getting up.
Lu Yan had already taken a few steps past.
"He woke up. But I didn't open my eyes. It's just shaking his head and crying...."He looked at the person on the small bed, and said a little nervously and panickedly. "What should I do?"
"Are you hungry or pee?" Liu Meibao asked casually, looking sideways.
Lu Yan stood beside the small bed, a little at a loss.
"I don't know.." He stammered.
"Hold it. I'll see. Liu Meibao said with a smile.
Lu Yan tentatively stretched out his hand, as if he was sweating profusely in the face of a thousand pounds of heavy objects, and finally simply moved the small bed over and put it in front of Liu Meibao.
Liu Meibao almost collapsed with laughter.
Guizi Niang came in when she heard the sound, and looked at the two of them as if she was watching something rare, and she was busy. Skillfully took the child out, touched it, and changed the diaper mattress neatly.
Lu Yan and Liu Meibao, the new parents, watched her movements seriously and curiously.
"Why is he still crying?" Liu Meibao asked. "You're hungry, aren't you? I'll feed you, I'll feed you. ”
She held out her hand with some excitement.
"Your bosom hasn't come down yet." Guizi Niang smiled and called the nurse who was already waiting outside.
Because Lu Yan didn't have the slightest intention of avoiding it indoors, the nurse had no choice but to go outside to feed the child with a red face.
And the servant woman brought in hot soup.
"The most important thing for you now is to make up for it, make up for the strong ones, and make up for the strong ones and the fat ones." Guizi Niang said.
Lu Yan hurriedly stretched out his hand to take the soup, and Guiziniang helped Liu Meibao to sit up.
"Do you still want to eat pig's trotters?" She asked, gesturing to the plate.
When giving birth, Liu Meibao suddenly said that she wanted to eat pig's trotters in the middle of labor pains, and the kitchen made it in a panic, and when the stew was ready, she was so painful that she couldn't eat a bite.
Liu Meibao remembered the scene at that time, couldn't help but want to laugh, and reached out to touch her stomach again.
"It's so strange, it hurt so much at the time, and there was nothing to do in this life." She laughed.
Lu Yan handed over a spoonful of soup.
"You can't say that, it's nothing, you see, the head is still sweating, this is false sweat." Guizi Niang smiled.
Liu Meibao gulped down the soup.
"Auntie, I'm really glad to have you, it's really helpful to have you here." Lu Yan said to her.
Guizi Niang glared at him in disgust.
"Got out of here, didn't you?" She smiled, "Serving tea and thanking you, are you going to send off guests?" ”
"Where, auntie, don't go, we won't take the child when you leave." Liu Meibao said with a smile.
"Good boy, eat more, raise a strong one, and have another one next year." Guizi Niang smiled.
"It's still alive, it's scary to death." Lu Yan said.
"Of course you have to give birth." Liu Meibao smiled, reached out to take the bowl, and drank it herself.
"Good boy, not squeamish, good to raise." Guiziniang said with a look of relief.
After eating the soup, the child was full, and he fell asleep again, and the nurse brought in.
"Put me here." Liu Meibao said.
"You lie down and rest, too." Lu Yan said.
The small mattress was placed beside Liu Meibao, and the husband and wife looked at it together.
"You see, his fingers are so small..."
"It's red and wrinkled, it's ugly.."
"Don't talk nonsense, this nose and eyes are the same as yours, good-looking.."
"What's so good-looking, where is it like me, how can I be so ugly..."
The words of this silly father and mother caused the servants in the house to laugh.
"Alright, alright, Erlang, you also go out to rest." Guizi Niang smiled.
"I'm not tired." Lu Yan shook his head and said, looking at his wife and children, he was reluctant to leave for a moment.
"You're not tired, you have to let the child rest." Guiziniang smiled, "Sleep more and eat more, so that you can raise well." ”
Lu Yan got up busily.
"You sleep for a while, I'll be at home." He said.
Liu Meibao nodded.
"Go ahead, I'm fine." She said.
The two smiled at each other, knowing the concern in their respective eyes.
Lu Yan walked out of the inner house, and there was already a team of soldiers in bright armor waiting.
"My lord, all those who led the people to make trouble have been caught, the Kang family and others have already opened the door and surrendered, only the Ji family and the Yang family have not opened the door and organized domestic slaves to resist." Jiang Dashan stepped forward and said.
"My lord, the Yang family retreated to the village and built their own gate fort..."Zhang Shun said.
"Resistance? Who do they think they are? Resist me? Lu Yan sneered, the gentleness and honesty of his wife and children who were facing him indoors were not seen at all, and instead he was gloomy and cold, "What about Menbao?" Summoning orders, mobilizing artillery fire, and breaking down doors. ”
