Chapter 229: Lotus
I heard that there was a child who fell into the water, the crowd rushed towards the river, Xiaowan also stood up with her stomach up, she was not tall enough, she couldn't see the situation there clearly, her heart tightened, and she looked around, but she didn't see Pei'er and the daughter of the Su family.
"You wait here, I'll look for it." Ling Chaofeng helped Xiaowan sit down, turned around and went to the river, and Su Su and Daqing followed.
Xiaowan's heart jumped suddenly, and she kept looking at the crowd over there, Pei'er suddenly came out of her side, holding a bouquet of wildflowers in her hand, and holding her little sister in the other hand, and her sister also wore several flowers on her head, and she threw herself in Xiaowan's arms delicately, showing off her flowers.
"This is for my mother, this is for my grandmother, this is for Aunt Susu......" Pei'er divided the bouquet into three parts, one for Xiaowan, and when she looked up, she saw that the adults were not here.
Xiaowan finally relieved herself, hugged her son in her arms, gasped and said, "I'm scared to death." ”
On the other side, Su Su found that the children who were rescued from the water were not her own, so she ran back to look for them again, and she was relieved to see that they were well by Xiaowan's side.
Pei'er ran over and put flowers on her aunt's sideburns, and she smiled and said, "Auntie took you over to find your father, and they all died in a hurry." ”
Ling Chaofeng saw that the child who fell into the water was not Pei'er, but became more and more nervous, constantly looking for it in the crowd, and when he turned around, he saw that Su Su had led them here, and his heart was relieved.
Pei'er ran and asked his father to ride him on a big horse and sit higher, Ling Chaofeng lifted him up and put it on his shoulder, Pei'er sat high, and could see his mother on the shore, and waved to him happily.
Xiaowan smiled with crooked eyebrows, but looking at this scene, she didn't feel it in her heart.
Why does she always have such an illusion, she feels that the scene in front of her is familiar, but this is not a bad thing, she thought, maybe they were a family in the previous life.
The child who fell into the water was not in danger, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, the county lord told each family to watch their children closely, and then it was the dragon boat race, the gongs and drums on the Baisha River were noisy, boiling and the sky was boiling, and the villages were full of energy, and it was lively all day.
Before the crowd dispersed, the people of the inn retreated first, and they didn't know which village won the game, but it didn't matter, Baisha County hadn't been so lively for a long time. The new parents are always thinking about the people, and although they are young, they have won the respect of all ages.
Watching the crowd walk in front of the inn, some people greeted this side, and some people came to ask for a sip of water, Aunt Zhang said to Xiaowan: "Before you got married, our inn was still a tiger's den and a wolf's den in their eyes, and somehow, since you entered the door, it gradually changed." Chaofeng used to not like to deal with people in the town, and would rather be treated as a black shop, preferring to be deserted, but now even he has changed. ”
Xiaowan looked back at Xianggong, he was wiping his son who was sweating profusely, his hands and feet were heavy, Pei'er writhed uncomfortably, he stared impatiently, the father and son were more energetic, making people want to laugh.
"Evening, you go and rest for a while, it's tiring to play for a long time." Aunt Zhang helped Xiaowan and said, "My belly is getting bigger and bigger, so I have to take it easy." ”
Xiaowan felt that the child in her womb was rolling, and she was indeed a little tired, Aunt Zhang touched it and said, "I haven't given birth to a child, and I don't understand, but I've seen a lot, your belly is so big this month, could it be twins?" ”
Xiaowan herself didn't understand it even more, Aunt Zhang sighed: "Let's ask the doctor to take a look another day, I don't know if they can see it, if it's a twin, be careful." Once upon a time in our palace, there were concubines who were pregnant with twins, and when they were born, only one survived, and the other suffocated in her stomach. ”
Xiaowan looked at her aunt in shock, and Aunt Zhang hurriedly said, "Look at what I said, it scared you, right?" Later, my aunt is not good, you see that I ......" Aunt Zhang blamed herself again and again, trying to explain, "That's also something that happens unfortunately, there are so many twin children in the world, everyone is fine." ”
Xiaowan said nervously: "Auntie, my mother gave birth to me and died, will I also ......?"
For this matter, Aunt Zhang regretted it very much, she had always been cautious, and she actually said such a thing that should not be said to the pregnant woman, but the water that was spilled out of the words, no matter how relieved she was, still left a shadow in the little lady's heart.
Aunt Zhang then discussed with Ling Chaofeng, and invited a doctor to come the next day, carefully checking Xiaowan's pulse.
The doctor told Xiaowan that she was not pregnant with twins, and her health was also very good, as long as she didn't lie down all the time and walked around more, it wouldn't be too difficult to give birth.
Xiao Wan believed it, and suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.
But when he turned around, the doctor said to Ling Chaofeng, Xiaowan's belly is likely to be twins, and when she gives birth, you must be very careful, and in the days to come, don't go far again, and be cautious when you go up and down the stairs.
Although Ling Chaofeng was worried in his heart, in order to let Xiaowan relax, he pretended to be fine, and he tried his best to entrust the matter at hand to his familiar friends, so as to spare his days and accompany his wife every day.
Xiao Wan became more and more dependent on her husband, and at first persuaded Ling Chaofeng not to worry about the family, let him go to the affairs explained by the emperor, but now that she sees that her husband does not go out, she doesn't say those words anymore, and when she is together every day, she is at ease.
A few days after the Dragon Boat Festival, the inn received a letter from Ershan, saying that Lian Yi would return to Lizhou Mansion to visit Mrs. Meng, and would come to the inn later, and ask his family to take care of Lian Yi.
Ling Chaofeng took out a hundred taels of silver, counted the days when Lian Yi arrived home, and sent Uncle Tuo Biao and Aunt Zhang to Lizhou Mansion. When they came back, they said that Mrs. Meng really didn't have any big deals, and she looked very good, and it seemed that she was in some trouble, and asked her daughter to come back to help.
Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, Xiaowan has long known the story of Ershan and his wife, Miss Meng is still tied up by the family, and as soon as something happens to her brother, Mrs. Meng will find her to fight the fire and relieve the disaster.
Today's dim sum is a big meat zongzi sent by Xiaowan's father, Pei'er eats very happily, even Uncle Biao praises this zongzi for being exquisite, Xiaowan feels too greasy and can't eat a few bites, Ling Chaofeng helped her to go for a walk down the back mountain to breathe.
"Are you thinking about your father and younger siblings?" When he arrived at the back mountain and avoided his family, Ling Chaofeng said gently, "Are you worried about them?" If you have anything to say, just say it, no one will laugh at you or say that you are not, you don't have to hold back. ”
Xiaowan shook her head: "I can't say it, it's probably about to give birth, my heart is not steady, and I don't know what I'm thinking about all kinds of messy things." ”
Ling Chaofeng said with a smile: "When the child is born, when the moon is full or a hundred days, please ask my father-in-law and Wenbao Wenjuan to come together to be lively, the Xu family is now gone, and there is nothing to scruple about." ”
"Wen Bao and Wen Juan, will they hate me?" Xiaowan asked her husband, and she said sadly, "That day, my father came to give me zongzi, and Wen Juan would say a few words to me in the past, but that day it was quiet and didn't say a word." Wenbao is naturally still like that, and he has never been close to me. I originally thought that I could put down the affairs of the family and really leave it alone, but I still thought about it. ”
Ling Chaofeng said: "The doctor said that pregnant women are sentimental, you will not be able to control your cranky thoughts, don't be afraid, when the child lands, your heart will be open again, and if you boil it again, you will get better soon." ”
Xiaowan asked: "Xianggong, do you think I'm too hypocritical?" ”
Ling Chaofeng bowed his head: "Even if you are hypocritical, you are very cute, you are like this, you will not be able to see it in a few months, I don't know when I will conceive a doll next time, I don't know when I cherish it." ”
Xiaowan smiled and poked her husband's heart: "Is it the truth, or is it to coax me?" ”
Ling Chaofeng rubbed her swollen fingers lovingly, took her on, and then returned to the inn, personally sent her upstairs, and waited for Xiaowan to fall asleep in a daze before he left.
This night, Xiaowan thought that she could sleep very soundly, but in her dream, she returned to the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, and they were still surrounded by villagers and talked about common things.
Suddenly, someone in the distance shouted that the child had fallen into the water, and Xiaowan didn't know why she could see so clearly this time, seeing that it was Pei'er splashing in the water, and also seeing the daughter of the Su family floating on the water.
She didn't care about her big belly, and immediately ran to the river.
The river was very fast, Xiao Wan jumped desperately, but she saw Pei'er and them being washed farther away, Xiao Wan screamed: "Pei'er, Pei'er ......"
Suddenly, the turbulent river calmed down, and green lotus leaves emerged from the bottom of the water, and the lotus leaves were connected one after another, like a long bridge on the Baisha River.
As soon as he turned around, at the end of the bridge, a lotus flower bloomed quietly, and on the pink and holy petals, there was a peaceful light, and the Pei'er around him was overjoyed, and immediately ran to the bridge, stretched out his hand to pick the lotus, and ran back to send it to his mother: "Mother, give it to you." ”
Xiao Wan was stunned, and as soon as she took over the hand, the lotus leaves under her feet suddenly disappeared, and she felt that her body fell violently and was about to fall into the Baisha River again, but this time, she woke up.
Is it a dream?
Xiao Wan's heart was still pounding, she sat up slowly, holding her stomach, and the little guy rolled in it, as if greeting her.
"Is it a fetal dream?" Xiaowan smiled and touched her stomach, "Little girl, are you a sister?" ”
