233 Men of this age
Seeing that the two brothers didn't know what to do, the Xu Yue sisters walked out, Xu Erniang took the child, and said while shaking it gently:
"The child at this time cried, either he was hungry, or he was uncomfortable, he had been breastfeeding three hours ago, and now it was almost the next meal, I held it to my wife and fed it first, but my wife's milk is not much, I am afraid it is not enough."
Zhao Bei was about to ask if he had to find a nurse, so Xu Erniang continued: "We have found a ewe to come over, in the backyard of the hotel, you remember to boil the milk and bring it over." ”
After saying that, he went into the house.
Xu Yue stood in front of the door and looked at the two men who didn't know how to act, sighed lightly, and directly assigned.
"Uncle Zhang, you go and milk the goat, Uncle Xuande, you go and wash the lady's clothes."
The two of them didn't have a chance to think about whether the big man would hurt the face of the big man by doing these things that the servants were capable of, so they nodded their heads and went their separate ways.
It is said that Zhao Bei's family was poor when he was young, but the counterpoint of his 'poor family' is those powerful families. In fact, compared to ordinary people, it is much stronger, not only with servants to cook and live, but also to read.
Therefore, the number of times Zhao Bei washed his clothes, Zhao Bei was so big, he could count them in one slap.
Before entering Xujiazhuang, there was always no shortage of people by his side, even if there were only three brothers left, the two younger brothers would take the initiative to take on his daily life.
Besides, Mrs. Gan followed all the way, and she arranged his personal clothes.
Therefore, Zhao Bei, who was squatting in the yard, looked at the large basin of blood-stained clothes in front of him, which was quite difficult, and was distracted for a long time, so he picked up his shirt and carried water to wash his clothes.
The temperature in the first month was much warmer than in winter, but the well water was still cold, Zhao Bei stretched out his hand into the water, and suddenly shivered.
He was distracted again, I don't know if he was thinking about the scene when Mrs. Gan washed her clothes, so he was stunned for a while, scrubbed for a while, and it took more than an hour to wash this basin of clothes.
When drying the clothes, Zhao Bei found that this dress was the deep clothes worn by Mrs. Gan when they fled north, which was long and fat, and had a lot of draft.
At this moment, he suddenly remembered the narrow-sleeved tops and trousers that Xu Yue's family loved to wear, and he had to sigh at the simplicity of this kind of clothing. It not only saves fabric, but also makes it easy to clean.
When Zhao Bei dried his clothes and returned to the room, Zhao Adou had already eaten and slept, and the bowl of hot goat's milk that Zhang Fei received was only half a bowl.
Let's get off the book
Zhao Yun also washed the diaper, and under the guidance of Xu Erniang, he sat on the kang outside and learned to make diapers with silk.
It would be good for children from poor families to be able to use old adult clothes, most of them have bare buttocks, dirty straw or something, and it is a luxury to use silk silk.
But the three brothers are very fond of Zhao Adou, a cub, and Zhao Yun bought half a silk silk from the chips he earned from helping with security in Xujiazhuang in the past two months, and specially made clothes and diapers for Zhao Adou.
He didn't do it before, because he thought that the eldest brother would at least bring a nurse or servant woman over.
But he didn't expect Zhao Bei to come in a hurry and didn't prepare anything.
However, even if he wanted to prepare, with his current small position in the government, he did not get much attention from Gongsun Zhan, and he was short of money in his hand, so he couldn't prepare.
Of course, the reason why he is still that small position cannot be said to have nothing to do with Xu Da at all.
Zhao Yun picked up the needle and thread, and Zhao Bei, as a husband, naturally couldn't be empty.
Xu Yue first taught him how to rinse Mrs. Gan's private parts and keep them clean, and then gave him a confinement recipe and asked him to prepare four meals a day for Mrs. Gan according to the meals on the recipe.
I wanted to cook six meals, but thinking about the current living conditions, Xu Yue had no choice but to give up.
Zhao Bei, who had never been in the kitchen, took the recipe into the small kitchen, and was immediately relieved to see the ingredients sent by the front desk in advance.
It's just that this breath is only half relieved, and I am stumped by the fire.
It was not that he had never made a fire when he was sleeping in the wilderness, but the fire in this stove was like an anomaly, and it tossed him for a while before it was ignited.
By this time, Zhao Bei had already taken off his Confucian shirt and changed into Xujiazhuang's unique clothes, and he no longer had half of his demeanor.
Xu Yue watched it funny on the side, but she didn't interfere.
Zhao Bei didn't want to be watched by a child to watch his jokes, so he secretly competed with the kitchen, and shouted in his heart that he would definitely take down this small kitchen, so as not to let the little girl at the door look down on him!
Zhao Bei was pinching the time to boil chicken soup, and at the same time putting oil and vegetables into the iron pot, he seemed to be busy.
Although the dishes made were extremely poor and the taste was estimated to be not much better, Mrs. Gan was so moved to tears that she ate them.
"Master, did you really do it yourself?" Mrs. Gan asked in disbelief with red eyes.
Zhao Bei wiped the hot sweat on his forehead, nodded, and saw that Mrs. Gan didn't open her mouth to eat what she fed, thinking that she was so unpalatable that she cried, and was embarrassed.
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Gan suddenly leaned into his arms and said movingly: "This is the first time that the slave family has eaten the meal made by the master himself, master, you are so good to the slave family." ”
Zhao Bei was stunned for a moment, and then showed a relieved smile, "Madame worked hard to give birth to Adou for me, and I should do this for Madame." ”
But looking at Mrs. Gan's happy face, Zhao Bei felt a little weak in his heart.
If he didn't have a choice now, he wouldn't have done so many tedious things himself, let alone a dignified man, washing and cooking for women.
It's just that here in Xujiazhuang, no one seems to say anything about men doing such things, plus there are no servants in the Xu family, and even the Wang family and Xu Yue's brothers and sisters do their own things, so he did this.
To say 'yes', not necessarily.
Because from ancient times to the present, only women should do this, and no man should do this.
But somehow, looking at the satisfaction and happiness that Mrs. Gan had never seen before, Zhao Bei found that he didn't have so much 'compulsion'.
But the premise of all this is that there is no one else around him.
If his colleagues had known that he was still cleaning that place for his wife, I am afraid that they would never have dealings with him again.
It's just that, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, as he knew in the past, a woman giving birth to a child seemed to be a few howls, and then the child fell to the ground.
But I never thought that there was only a little bit of a woman's place, how to give birth to such a big child.
When I heard that a woman gave birth, five out of ten died in childbirth...... Zhao Bei glanced at Zhao Adou, who was sleeping soundly on the side of the bed, it was unbelievable that such a big child would come out of such a small place.
Looking at Mrs. Gan, who was particularly attached to him in his arms, Zhao Bei felt that he should treat her better.
Although after seeing the devastation in that place, he may have that secret thought of her in the future, but she did suffer, and what he did today should be to make amends.
