What Wang said was told to her by Yu Niang when she was taking a bath, but after all, time was limited and she spoke in very general terms, but now she has completed it.
Passing by the school, the lantern at the door is no longer lit all night like before I left.
Seeing her stop, Mrs. Wang sighed softly and said:
"Since the imperial court promulgated the scientific examination regulations, most of the students have left the school during this time."
"Why?" Cheng Xue was shocked, "Didn't he just stop cultivating? The court decreed that children should go to school."
Wang shook her head and explained helplessly:
"The provincial examination is now changed to once every three years. Those children over the age of twelve have just started to learn. If they really have to wait for them to read out and take the provincial examination, if they fail the examination once, they will have to wait another three years. When we old farmers reach adulthood, it means spring plowing and autumn harvest.
In a few years, when these children grow up, how can we let them study instead of going to the fields?"
"Where are the children in our village? Are Big Lei, Son, San Pang and the others down?"
Seeing her nodding, the corner of Cheng Xue's mouth twitched and she couldn't help but shake her head with regret. She remembered that when they erected the commemorative monument, they all threatened to let their children go to school, but they changed their minds within a year... That's all, everyone has their own ambitions.
, she can’t judge whether it’s right or wrong.
"Where's Zhuzi? How did he learn from Li Zhong?"
"It's okay. Li Zhong is not as considerate as Nianzi, but he is honest and responsible." Wang replied, "He is a good hand at keeping accounts, checking accounts, and calculating accounts. If you give him a few account books, this kid will sit there all day without thinking."
Drive the place."
This is true. Zhuzhu and Nianzi are the most reliable children among the younger generation in the village.
The two of them returned to the west of the village while talking. Wang didn't want to go through any trouble, so she asked Cheng Xue to take her home.
"You really don't want to stay at my house?"
"No." Ms. Wang shook her head and declined, "We won't join in the fun anymore. Just let Yingjie and Sidan live. We'll go over there early tomorrow morning."
"Okay then, let's go have breakfast tomorrow morning. Don't eat together for the next three days. Eat at my place." Cheng Xue said while touching the window.
"Yesterday, the third child, my mother-in-law, and my father-in-law helped to make the paste. I and the third child's daughter-in-law and I cut it together..."
Before she finished speaking, Wang quickly grabbed Cheng Xue's hand, and then said with a stern face:
"Sister-in-law, my water broke."
Bai Wei came forward with a lantern, and sure enough, there was a puddle of water on the ground. Bai Shu turned around and left. Cheng Xue took the key from her hand and threw it to Bai Wei.
"How's it going? Does it hurt?"
"Not yet...well - it hurts!" After saying this, Ms. Wang shut up tightly, sweating on her forehead.
Bai Wei opened the door, and Cheng Xue was about to help her into the house. She didn't want this person to just stand there, shaking her head.
After the labor pain passed, he pointed to the west and said:
"Go to that room, everything is in there."
Bai Wei went into the house first to light wax and spread the quilt. When Cheng Xue helped her into the house, all preparations had been made. Cheng Xue ordered Bai Wei to set up a fire and boil water. Not long after Yu Zhao and others came back, Liu's first
One rushed into the house.
"What's going on? It hurts, doesn't it? Sanhan has gone to pick up Wen. Mother Yingjie, don't be afraid. Mother and Yu Zhao are with you. Li Zhong has also driven to your mother's house to pick you up."
The old lady said a lot, but all she got in response was Wang's groan.
It is said that the first pregnancy is difficult, the second pregnancy is faster, and the third and fourth babies are spinning.
Judging from the frequency of Wang's labor pains, she must be about to give birth. Cheng Xue took off her underpants and covered her cervix with a quilt after checking her cervix. Although she didn't study gynecology, she had dabbled in it, and her uterus was dilated with five fingers, which was very fast.<
/p>
"Snow girl, how are you?"
"Don't worry, auntie, the baby loves your mother. It has already opened its fingers and will be born in the first half of the night."
After saying that, Bai Wei brought the steaming water into the house, sprinkled it with brown sugar, and it smelled delicious.
Mrs. Wang struggled to sit up, reluctantly drank two sips of soup, and drank two poached eggs. Then Wen Po came. All things and hot water were prepared. With seven fingers of the palace open, Po Wen had already begun to guide Wang Shi to exert force.
The atmosphere in the west room was tense, and the four men in the yard all frowned. Yu Zhao even paced back and forth in the yard with his hands behind his back. He was not a father for the first time, but the couple decided to separate and settled in Wanghe Village.
, everything is discussed and discussed, and the relationship is more solid than before. Now that his wife is wandering in front of the gate of hell, it will be a ghost if he can sit down calmly.
There was quite a commotion, which alerted Mr. Geng who was already resting next door.
The old lady opened the door and came out, looking at the people sitting in the yard through the moonlight, and said:
"Dad Yingjie, has your wife fallen asleep?"
"Yes, Auntie, she is giving birth." Yu Zhao replied.
"Hey, Hui Zi is back? Oops, congratulations."
As he spoke, Mr. Geng came from the next door and walked to Li Hui who had already stood up. He looked up and down and said:
"I'm thinner. I'm much thinner than before I left! You must be exhausted from the scientific examination."
"It's okay. Is Auntie okay?"
"Okay, okay, I don't have anyone to worry about right now. It's okay. You guys sit down while I go into the house and take a look."
After Mrs. Geng finished speaking, she was about to enter the house. As soon as she reached the door, she heard the cry of a child coming from inside the house, a delicate and delicate little movement, especially calling for someone.
"Give birth, my wife has given birth. Dad, my wife has given birth." Yu Zhao said as he rushed into the house.
Geng was almost knocked off his feet by him, but Li Hui stepped forward and reached out to help him. After helping him, he realized that the old lady had lost a lot of weight. Although she said she was "very good", she was actually very sad. After all,
A couple who had lived together for many years and had two sons and a daughter suddenly passed away. Unless they were cold-blooded, it would be impossible not to be heartbroken.
"My aunt has lost a lot of weight too. She needs to eat more."
"...Ah, really? I didn't even feel it." After finishing speaking, Geng said, "Hehe..." he walked into the room with an awkward smile.
Mrs. Wang gave birth to a daughter, weighing five pounds and six taels. Yu Zhao was so excited that she hugged and coaxed her and kissed her. Mrs. Wang herself was also happy. A son and a daughter were exactly what they wanted. They had to deal with the aftermath.
After everything was done, Li Zhong also took over the Wang family.
When the Queen Mother heard that her daughter had given birth to a girl, she quickly glanced at Mrs. Liu and saw that her in-laws were not displeased at all, so she breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's good to have a daughter. A daughter is my mother's caring little cotton-padded jacket. Are you okay, Nier? Just tell your mother what you want to eat and she will cook it for you."
Wang was a little tired, but still managed to cheer up and responded:
"No, mother, just help me take care of the children. My sister-in-law's wife will help me with the cooking. She can make medicated meals and nourish the body, so I can recover quickly."
The Queen Mother nodded when she heard this, took out a small silver ring from her arms and put it on her granddaughter. Although the life at home was not as good as that of the Yu family, they still made some money growing vegetables. At least the gifts this time were better than last time.
After giving it to Yingjie for a long time, Wang felt bright on her face and Yu Zhao felt comfortable in her heart.
As for Ms. Liu, if the family is separated, they will live their own lives and give as much as they like. She doesn't worry about that...
