Ying Bao died once and was reborn again, when Father Jiang first picked her up.
She was both happy and worried.
I am glad that I am back with my parents again and can be a carefree and pampered baby again.
I am worried that in a few years, I will be recognized by that family again, and I will fall back on the same path of my whole life.
In this era of etiquette between kings, ministers, fathers and sons, she was a woman with no human rights. She was restricted by the rules of blood relatives, filial piety and etiquette, and had no way to protect herself.
Even though her biological father had abandoned her and never raised her, as long as they came to ask for her, everyone would stand on the moral high ground, accuse her of blood ties, use filial piety to suppress her, and even the government offices would speak for them.
She had seen the faces of those people in her previous life, and if she had to do it again, she would never compromise even if she died again.
What kind of kindness is greater than God, bullshit!
What kind of kindness does a person who is full of schemes and bent on putting her to death have to do with her?
Ying Bao closed her eyes and her consciousness instantly entered a cave.
This is her territory, a magical place that she accidentally discovered in her previous life, a mysterious cave.
I saw that the cave was ten feet square, with a large almond-shaped pool in the middle. The pool occupied about sixty-seven percent of the cave.
The water in the pool is clear and sweet, with a hint of blue. There is a huge round sphere in the middle of the pool, which is emitting golden light like the sun.
This is completely different from the caves of my previous life.
I remember that when I was eighteen years old, I had just escaped from the Governor's Mansion and hid around disguised as a beggar.
One day, she hid in a shrine in a dilapidated temple and shivered. The dilapidated temple was drafty and the cold was biting to the bone.
She had a fever and was a little confused. During her daze, her consciousness suddenly entered this strange cave.
At that time, there was nothing but thick ice in the cave, which made her think that she had fallen into an ice cave.
Unexpectedly, after he came back to life, the ice on the wall melted away, and there was a pool of water in the cave. There was a round luminous body in the middle of the pool, which looked very extraordinary at first sight.
Yingbao came to the pond and buried the apple seeds she brought in yesterday into the soft black soil beside the pond.
These black soils are three feet wide and surround the pool. At first glance, it looks like someone has painted the pool with black eyeliner with a brush.
Such a strange place echoes the appearance of the mysterious cave in the storybook.
So Yingbao wanted to verify whether this black soil also has magical functions and grows whatever you plant, as described in the storybook.
If an apple tree really grows one day, then their family will have big sweet apples to eat.
After burying the seeds and watering them with water several times, Yingbao's consciousness began to become confused and he soon fell into a deep sleep.
When I opened my eyes again, I found that I had arrived at the doctor's house, and the doctor was taking my mother's pulse.
Doctor Zhang is in her seventies, with her gray hair neatly pulled back and a silver hairpin inserted into her bun, with a tassel on the hairpin swaying gently as she moves.
It is said that this grandma worked as an errand in the county government office when she was young, doing a job to stabilize her mother-in-law. Later, when she got older, she returned to her hometown to provide for herself.
She is very good at pregnancy and childbirth, and is also proficient in some difficult and complicated diseases of women, so many people come here to seek medical treatment.
"How?" Jiang Sanlang couldn't help but ask.
Doctor Zhang released her finger to detect the pulse, turned around and said with a smile: "Congratulations, your wife has a happy pulse. She has been feeling her pulse for about three months."
"Ah? Is it true? Don't tease me." Jiang Sanlang was excited and incoherent, a little unbelievable.
"Is this fake?" The doctor woman stood up with a smile, took out a receiver from the medical box, and said to Mrs. Xu: "Sister, come with me, I will listen to the fetal breathing for you."
"Hey." Mrs. Xu stood up, looked at her husband, and followed the doctor into the inner room.
After a while, the doctor came out and said happily: "Oh, Sanlang, your wife is pregnant with twins."
"Ah?" Jiang Sanlang was surprised, "Are these...really twins?"
"Yes." The doctor woman put the receiver into the medical box, glanced at Jiang San, and whispered: "Your wife is almost thirty, and this is her first child, so you need to be more careful."
"Hmm," Jiang Sanlang became even more nervous and stammered: "Then... why does it matter? What should I do?"
The doctor woman picked up a handkerchief and wiped her hands. Seeing Mr. Xu sorting out her clothes and coming out of the room, she said: "Let your wife eat more meat, eggs and fine grains to supplement her body. She should do light work and not be too tired. Wait for seven or eight days."
After the first month of pregnancy, you have to eat less rice and more vegetables at every meal to ensure smooth delivery."
"Oh oh oh." Jiang Sanlang responded hurriedly.
"Also, hire a midwife as early as possible when you are almost full term. Don't delay until it's too late." Dr. Zhang said earnestly: "Twins are not as good as singles. You can't be careless."
"Hey, hey!" Jiang Sanlang nodded.
After coming out of Dr. Zhang's house, Jiang Sanlang was still a little dizzy. He held his daughter in one hand and his wife in the other, and said softly: "Let's buy two kilograms of brown sugar first, and then measure a few liters of rice to make porridge for you."
It's a pity that there is no market today, and the butcher shop in town has closed early. Otherwise, I could have cut a piece of fat pork to take home.
"Rice is so expensive, and I only have a few dozen dollars left at home, so I'd better not spend it randomly." Chun Niang said angrily, "It's just the beginning of spring, and there are still several months before the summer harvest."
Jiang Sanlang looked at his wife with pity and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, after our underground planting is completed, I will go to the county town and I can always find someone to make a living."
"It's not that easy." Chun Niang sighed, "It's a hundred miles away from the county seat. Where will you live then? Is it possible that you will sleep in a ruined temple like last time?"
After the autumn harvest last year, Sanlang and two fellow villagers went to the county town to look for work, but failed to find any work. The three of them were almost beaten to death by a group of local ruffians.
Chen Cunzheng's nephew was beaten the worst and is still unable to do heavy work in the fields.
Jiang Sanlang scratched his head, "You must buy rice, brown sugar, and the doctor told you to eat more refined and easy-to-digest foods. Well, when I get home, I will kill an old hen and make soup for you to drink."
"We only have two hens left at home. It's egg-laying season right now. Where can I kill them?"
Ms. Xu pinched her husband and interrupted his nagging. "If there are no hens to lay eggs, what will our Yingbao eat?"
"That's right, hehehe, we Yingbao have to eat custard every day, I got it wrong." Jiang Sanlang scratched the back of his head, hehehahaha.
Ying Bao blinked, but was also at a loss.
My family is poor, with three thatched huts and a small kitchen, and a yard surrounded by bamboo fences, just like in my previous life. The house is almost bare.
There will be enough food to eat.
She once dug into an urn containing grain, but there was only a shallow layer of wheat inside.
Even the most unpalatable Migu only costs about one stone, which is barely enough for a family to survive until the summer harvest.
The two old hens in the house are probably the most valuable items at the moment.
But now I am so small, with weak legs and weak feet, that I can't even speak. Not only can I not help my parents, I have to rely on them to take care of me.
Ying Bao was worried, her little face wrinkled up in worry.
When my mother was pregnant with her younger brother and needed nutritional supplements, how could she only eat wheat and millet?
Suddenly, an idea flashed in her mind.
Isn't there a river in the west of the village? Although the water in the river is strong, there are fish wherever there is a river.
"Daddy, fish!" She decided to remind her silly daddy.
If there is no meat, I can just eat fish.
As long as you borrow a fishing net, you can always catch some fish and shrimp.
