In the west room, Ying Bao was leaning on the bed, contemplating.
In the previous life, the birthdays of my two younger brothers were September 26th, and my mother-in-law said they were born at night.
Because the incident happened suddenly and it rained heavily, my father couldn't rush to the town to find a doctor, so he had to ask Aunt Wu from Xichen Village.
Although Fourth Aunt Wu was also an experienced midwife, this was the first time she encountered a situation like Chun Niang's, and she was inevitably a little confused.
In the end, the twins were finally born safely, but one of the younger brothers lost his mind due to being suffocated.
Chun Niang also suffered a lot. She lay in bed for more than two months and was unable to have children again.
"Tomorrow is September 26th. I have to ask my father to go to town early and ask the doctor to come and stay at home."
Ying Bao murmured to herself: "No matter what, nothing can happen to my brother and my mother again."
But how can I make my father believe that grandma will give birth tomorrow?
After all, it is not easy to ask a doctor to visit you, and the consultation fee is quite considerable.
And my mother-in-law showed no signs of giving birth. If the doctor was called in and there was no movement here, wouldn't it be a waste of money?
Alas, just spend it in vain. You can't ignore the lives of my mother-in-law and my brother just to save a little money.
Ying Bao got into bed, closed her eyes and entered the cave.
The open space next to the pool is now covered with thick soil.
These fertile soils were shoveled in bit by bit by Yingbao some time ago, and now they are planted with wheat, rice, soybeans, dozens of water chestnuts, and a large area of green vegetables and shepherd's purse.
Wheat, rice, and soybeans have just sprouted, and vegetables and shepherd's purse are growing rapidly.
The few water chestnuts I planted earlier have sprouted and grown up, producing a bunch of water chestnuts as big as eggs, which are crisp and sweet.
But no one here has ever seen such big water chestnuts, and since it is autumn, Yingbao dare not take them out, so he can only replant them one by one.
In addition, many fruit trees are planted on the black soil side, including jujube, sorbet, peach, chestnut, and apricot trees.
The fruit seedlings have grown to half a foot tall and can be transplanted just waiting for next spring.
The two apple trees transplanted before are growing well, and these seedlings should be fine too.
However, you need to think carefully about where to plant.
Naturally, twenty or thirty fruit saplings cannot be planted in the yard, not even in front of or behind the house, as that would be too eye-catching.
Just plant it in Beishan, let alone.
That piece of land is a Koufentian. When Father Jiang gets old, half of it will be returned to the public. If he dies, all of the Koufentian will be returned.
She doesn't want to make wedding clothes for others in the future.
Then, we can only plant it in Xiaonan Mountain, where dad’s Yongye Field and more than ten acres of mountainous land are there.
Moreover, Xiaonan Mountain has another advantage. It has a high terrain and few rocks. Even if there is a flood in the future, it will not be flooded.
Well, by mobilizing parents to build houses in Xiaonanshan in the future, we can avoid major floods in a few years.
Yingbao walked closer to the rock wall and carefully observed the growth of these crystal white and transparent objects.
The piece that was picked out never grew back, which made her a little upset.
This also means that once these Wudingzhi are used up, they will never be available again.
Ying Bao scratched her head, a little confused.
The hens at home are willing to lay eggs and the deer grow strong, which is actually attributed to Wudingzhi.
Even when my finger was cut by a sickle last time, I used its juice to treat it. The effect was very obvious. No trace was visible after only two hours. This shows that it is a good thing.
Since it is a non-renewable good thing, you have to use it sparingly in the future.
On the second day, Yingbao got up before dawn, put on her clothes, folded the quilt, and ran to her parents' house.
That's right, Yingbao now has her own house.
Because her younger brother was about to be born, and she was a sensible girl, how could she always share the same bed with her parents?
So at her strong request, the father made a kang for his daughter in the west room and let her live alone.
Yingbao poked her head out from under the curtain and shouted into the room: "Dad!"
Jiang Sanlang was putting on his shoes when he saw his daughter calling him so early, so he thought something had happened.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Sanlang came over quickly.
Ying Bao took her father's hand and dragged him outside, "Come on, I have something to tell you."
Jiang Sanlang followed his little girl to the west room and asked, "What does Yingbao want to tell dad?"
Ying Bao crossed her fingers and thought for a while, then whispered: "Dad, I had a dream last night."
Jiang Sanlang smiled and rubbed his daughter's head, "Did you have a nightmare?"
Ying Bao shook her head, raised her neck and said seriously: "I dreamed that my mother was going to give birth to a younger brother tonight, and she was bleeding a lot. Dad, please hurry up and ask the doctor to come home."
Jiang Sanlang was stunned for a moment, subconsciously feeling that his daughter's dream was ridiculous.
Suddenly I remembered that my wife was due to give birth soon, and my daughter was so sure last time that she had a brother in her mother's belly, which shows that my daughter is somewhat spiritual.
He was a little panicked, but still made a decision.
"Okay, I'll go to town right away." Jiang Sanlang hurriedly went to the east room to check on his wife, and he was relieved when he saw that there was nothing wrong with her.
"Chun Niang, I'm going to town. You should rest at home and don't wander around." Jiang Sanlang warned.
Chun Niang sat up and asked confusedly: "Why are you going to town so early? It's not even dawn yet."
"It will light up soon." Jiang Sanlang turned around and left the house.
When I got outside, I saw that it was raining, and the rain was not letting up, so I went back to get the bamboo hat and coir raincoat hanging on the wall, and then I went to my eldest brother's house.
He has to ask his sister-in-law to come and take care of him.
My wife is about to give birth and my daughter is still so young. I’m afraid it won’t be possible if there is no responsible adult in the family.
Seeing her father walking in a hurry, Yingbao quickly told him: "Dad, the road is slippery on rainy days, so be careful on the road. The doctor is old and can't walk in the mud. You can go to Grandpa Muramasa's house and borrow a donkey cart."
Jiang Sanlang slapped his head.
Hey, how could I have forgotten this?
He waved to his daughter, "I know, dad is going right away. You follow your mother at home and don't run around." After saying that, he rushed into the rain.
Yingbao sighed, ran to the kitchen to feed the deer, and let the chicken out of the chicken cover.
Seeing that the water in the water tank was almost gone, he released water from the cave until the large water tank was full.
After thinking about it, I took some dry firewood from behind the kitchen stove, took two little-used pottery bowls and an old pottery pot from the cupboard, and put them all into the cave for emergencies.
Mrs. Zhou, the eldest sister-in-law of the Jiang family, quickly came over with a paper umbrella and a can of freshly cooked white rice porridge in her hand.
"Auntie." Yingbao greeted warmly.
Zhou asked with a smile: "Why did Yingbao get up so early? Where is your mother?"
"Mom is in the house and will be out soon." Ying Bao said crisply.
"Auntie, let's go take a look." Mrs. Zhou walked towards the east room.
Yingbao felt relieved when she saw her aunt came to accompany her.
She put on the little bamboo hat that her father asked someone to make for her, put on her wooden clogs, and took the little deer to pee outside the yard.
The deer followed obediently and walked into the rain.
After releasing the deer and drying it with a rag, Yingbao started shoveling the chicken manure in the chicken coop again.
My father usually cleans this thing, but today my father has something to do, and I can't let my pregnant mother do it, so I have to do it myself.
After cleaning up the chicken manure and cleaning it again, no one can enter the kitchen.
At this time, Mrs. Zhou walked in and said, "You are such a diligent little girl. I was planning to let you, Sister Dani, do it, but I didn't expect that everything was cleaned up."
Ying Bao smiled and said, "My parents usually do it. Today, my father went out and it was inconvenient for my mother, so I just took care of it."
Mrs. Zhou took out two pottery bowls and two pairs of chopsticks from the cupboard: "Ying Bao, my aunt brought porridge, it's still hot. Come and have some with your mother."
"Well, thank you, auntie." Ying Bao jumped up and down behind Zhou and went to the main room to eat porridge.
Chun Niang also felt helpless at this time and said to Mrs. Zhou: "I won't go out if you are not allowed to go out. Why bother my sister-in-law to bring porridge and rice?"
Mrs. Zhou smiled and said: "Sanlang went over to tell you early this morning that you were probably going to give birth, so he asked me to come and take a look. I happened to cook porridge in the morning. I thought you were inconvenient. It was raining outside. What if you slipped?
I had to do it, so I brought some over."
"Giving birth is about to happen somewhere." Chun Niang felt a little embarrassed.
He touched his belly and said hesitantly: "But my belly has been tight and loose in the past two days. I don't know if it was kicked by the baby."
