Su Anying gave birth to her son successfully, and Xu Shiyan and others also breathed a sigh of relief.
The little baby only cried once when he was born, and then slept with his eyes closed the whole time.
Seeing this, Zhou Guilan asked Xu Shiyan to stay in the hospital to guard his wife and children. She took Xu Shiqin home to cook for her daughter-in-law.
At home, I have pig trotters that Xu Shiyan specially bought two days ago. I was afraid that they would be covered with a layer of salt.
Zhou Guilan soaked the pig's trotters in warm water, washed them several times, and blanched them to remove the blood foam.
Then put the pig's trotters in a casserole, add warm water, add the peanuts that Xu Shiyan finally found, and add two passepartout.
Passepartout stewed pig's trotters is the best for producing milk.
The pig's trotters won't be stewed for a while. Su Anying is still in the hospital and can't be hungry, so she has to make something to eat.
I happened to have two bundles of dried noodles at home that I bought from the Forestry Bureau store a few days ago.
Zhou Guilan took out a small half of it, first sauteed it with oil and chopped green onion, then added boiled poached eggs, and finally added noodles, seasoned appropriately, and put it in a large lunch box.
"Lao Liu, hurry up, give this to your third sister-in-law first, let her eat a little to fill her stomach.
Don't go to the tailor shop today, just help me with cooking and other things at home. Your third sister-in-law is in the hospital and can't live without her."
After the noodles were cooked, Xu Shiqin was quickly sent to the hospital, while Zhou Guilan had to make breakfast for the rest of the family.
Xu Shiqin had already washed himself up, so he hurried to the hospital with his lunch box.
"Third brother, our mother made noodles and poached eggs for my third sister-in-law. How is third sister-in-law? Get up and eat something?"
Xu Shiqin entered the ward and found his sister-in-law lying on the bed, seemingly asleep. Xu Shiqin did not dare to speak loudly and asked in a low voice.
"I haven't slept yet. Your third brother told me to close my eyes and take care of them."
Unexpectedly, Su Anying, who had her eyes closed originally, spoke.
Su Anying became a mother for the first time. Even though she was physically weak after giving birth to a child, she was very energetic and always thinking about taking care of the child.
Xu Shiyan felt that his wife was always staring at the child without resting, so he fooled her into telling her to close her eyes and rest.
I thought Su Anying could fall asleep, but she didn't sleep at all.
Xu Shiyan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he could only help his wife up, put a towel on the lunch box, and placed it on Su Anying's lap.
"It takes a lot of effort to give birth, so let's eat something. Eat something light first, and then when we get home, we will kill the chicken and make chicken soup for you."
To be honest, in his previous life, Xu Shiyan had never served his wife during the confinement period. He didn't know anything at that time.
Later, when my daughter gave birth to a baby, her mother-in-law didn't know anything about postpartum care, so she gave the mother some old hen soup from the beginning.
As a result, I had a blocked breast and had a high fever and went to the hospital.
The doctor said that in fact, a mother who has just given birth is physically weak and should eat a lighter diet, and then drink chicken soup and the like after her body recovers a little.
These days, Xu Shiyan has penetrated his mother's ideas without leaving any trace.
Fortunately, Zhou Guilan was never that old-fashioned or feudal type. She listened to what Xu Shiyan said and took it to heart.
So I made noodles for my first meal and didn’t use much oil.
Nowadays, noodles are very rare, not to mention that they are filled with oil, poached eggs, and green scallions floating on top.
Not to mention Su Anying, who has spent a lot of energy and has an empty stomach, everyone wants to eat it.
Su Anying had a really good appetite. She ate all three poached eggs in one portion of noodles, and now she felt much better in her stomach.
"Shiyan, I'm fine. You don't have to look at me like that. Go home and eat."
Su Anying sat for a while after eating. She felt tired and sleepy, so she lay down to rest.
How dare Xu Shiyan abandon his wife and children and run home for dinner? He only sent Xu Shiqin home and would replace him after dinner.
Su Anying suffered from stomachache last night and didn't sleep well. Now she really fell asleep.
Xu Shiyan was lying on the bedside, looking at the big and small sleeping people on the bed, and couldn't help but laugh.
The happiest moment in the world is nothing more than this, right?
Unfortunately, before Xu Shiyan could be happy for a few minutes, the little guy wrapped in the quilt suddenly pursed his lips and started crying.
Xu Shiyan was so frightened that he hurriedly picked up the child and coaxed him, but no matter how he coaxed him, the little thing refused to stop. In the end, he woke up Su Anying.
"Did you pee?"
Su Anying took the child, unwrapped the quilt and took a look. Wasn't it right? It was so big that the diaper was soaked.
"There are diapers in the bag over there. Bring me a few and I'll put them on for her."
Even though it was Su Anying's first time giving birth to a child, she was better at taking care of her children than anyone else.
She was the one who brought up the fifth and sixth children of the Su family. Isn’t it a piece of cake to change a baby’s diaper?
Su Anying quickly changed the baby's diaper. Sure enough, the baby's butt was dry and the baby stopped crying.
Chirping, chirping, not opening his eyes, just humming there.
"Is this kid hungry?" Xu Shiyan looked at his son like that, he must be hungry.
But how can Su Anying get milk after giving birth? It’s impossible to buy milk powder these days.
"Okay, little ancestor, please bear with me for a while while daddy makes you some sugar water."
I vaguely remember hearing someone say that newborns can be fed some glucose water to prevent hypoglycemia in newborns?
"Daughter-in-law, do you still have the glucose powder? Have you brought it to the hospital?"
Xu Shiyan bought a pack of glucose powder and gave it to Su Anying and Xu Shiqin to drink, but they probably didn't finish it.
"Look through those two bags. I don't know if our mother brought them to you." Su Anying pointed at the baggage and said.
Xu Shiyan went over and rummaged around, and sure enough he found half a packet of glucose powder, so he brewed some in a teapot and fed it drop by drop with a spoon along the corner of the baby's mouth.
Not to mention, the little thing felt the taste of sugar water, and he actually drank it.
Xu Shiyan liked it very much when he saw his son drinking sugar water.
"This little guy is so funny. He can make some noise even if he drinks some sugar water."
This little thing, in his previous life, felt that his family was poor, so he came for a few days and then left.
I hope he can grow up safely in this life and continue the relationship between father and son that was interrupted in his previous life.
Xu Shiyan carefully fed his son sugar water, probably only two spoonfuls, and then stopped feeding him.
As a result, the little thing was still not happy and kept puckering his lips.
"I won't give it to you if you cry. It's not good for children with big butts to drink too much sugar water."
Xu Shiyan didn't care about that. He put down the spoon, picked up the little guy, and walked around on the ground to coax him.
"What are you doing walking around with him in your arms? He's making noise every day."
Zhou Guilan came back just at this time. When she saw Xu Shiyan holding the child and wandering on the ground, his face suddenly turned dark.
"Put the child down for me. The child cannot be used to it. The more you hold her and coax her, the harder it will be to sleep well in the future. She will cry whenever she is not held.
You can go up the mountain all day long, and then come back at night to soothe the children.
Where is Yingzi? If she only holds the baby all day, you will tire her to death?"
Zhou Guilan stepped forward, took the baby, and gently placed it on the bed, humming a song and patting it gently with her hands.
After a while, the little baby stopped whining and slept soundly.
