Xu Suizhu once heard from her colleague’s mother-in-law that she could not wash her hair or take a bath during the confinement period. At that time, she thought it was unbelievable. It lasted for a whole month!
It may be bearable in the winter, but in the summer the temperature rises to 38 or 9 degrees Celsius. Because there are babies around, the air conditioner cannot be turned down too low, so you will still sweat.
What's more, in the late 1980s, the most rudimentary air conditioners were not yet popular, and fans were not allowed to be used. It was said that you could not see the wind during confinement, and you had to bear the heat and sweat. Who can bear it?
Typhoon days are relatively better. It's windy and rainy outside, and although it's a bit stuffy indoors, it's not like I'm sweating after just feeding.
It was a disaster as soon as the typhoon passed. The scorching sun hung in the sky, and the house made of mud bricks was baked by the sun. It was as hot as a kiln or a sauna.
I haven't even had to take a shower or wash my hair yet.
Xu Suizhu is going crazy.
"You can't do this. My hair stinks. If you don't believe me, smell it... the baby hates me. Look at this little nose. What if he refuses to drink milk?"
Her aunt couldn't resist her, so she had to boil a pot of water, let it warm and let her wipe it. She repeatedly told her to only wipe the lower body, and the upper body, especially the back, not to get wet.
Xu Suizhu: "..."
How about taking a shower and deciding between top and bottom? That’s enough!
Wipe your back with warm water. It won't be cold at all. She is even sweating.
As soon as the door curtain was opened, she murmured to her aunt while Xu Suizhu washed her own. The smell of sweat was finally gone, and she felt refreshed after the bath. It was much easier to hold the little one and nurse her.
In this way, every three or five days, she asked her aunt to boil a pot of hot water, take a bath and wash her hair in secret.
Don't think about washing every day, her aunt disagrees anyway. She said that her ancestors have been here this way, and no matter how hard it is, it will only last for this month. After confinement, let alone washing every day, no one will care about you if you wash three times a day. But the month
You must endure it.
So, even if I could wash it every three to five days, I had to grind it and grind it, so that my aunt agreed.
In order to make it easier to wash her hair, Xu Suizhu bit her teeth and cut off her waist-length black hair to the root of her ears. Now she really became a schoolgirl with noodles in clear soup. When she walked out with her baby in her arms, others thought she was
Naiwa'er's sister, Xu Suizhu, touched her pretty short hair in the mirror and sighed that the original owner was really beautiful. Even if she had a dog-gnawed short hair, she didn't feel ugly. On the contrary, it added a youthful charm. No wonder she is jealous of others.
, being harmed by villains.
After taking a shower and looking at the calendar, I finally made it to the end of August—nine days left before confinement.
During this period, Xu Suizhu finally got the PP cotton upgradeable lifetime model that she had been longing for, also known as the "Interstellar Sanitary Napkin".
With it, you no longer have to worry about your lower body suddenly getting hot while you are lying down, and you no longer have to worry about "peeing" on the felt underneath you.
It is as thin as a cicada, as soft as cotton, but can absorb 2L of liquid at a time, and the surface is still as fresh as new. And it is not disposable, with the included core box, it can last half a lifetime!
Once her lochia is gone, it can be turned into diapers for little Baozi to use.
In short, this thing is the most popular among all the prizes drawn!
Satisfying this desire, Xu Suizhu used several subsequent lottery opportunities on the dungeon interface: first, he drew the Seablue Star Smart Fish Floss, but unfortunately the bun was too small to eat, so he kept it in the system package; then he drew one.
Jupiter pup base culture solution.
As the name suggests, base culture solution is used to strengthen the physical fitness of infants and young children.
Take it once within three months and you will not get sick within three years of age. It is like an enhanced version of the vaccine, and it is more comprehensive, convenient, effective and has no side effects than the vaccine.
Xu Suizhu took it to Xiao Baozi on the day he drew it.
Needless to say, after more than twenty nights of nourishment in the nutrition cabin and a drop of fish oil supplement every day, the little bun has lost the wrinkles he had when he was born, and it is no longer obvious that he is a premature baby. On the contrary, the flesh is plump, white and tender,
She looks happier and healthier than the average full-term baby.
Xu Xiuyuan and Lin Guodong were so curious that they thought their niece's milk was strong. When they had free time, they went to the town's meat stall to pick up the tube bones, and found someone to substitute freshwater fish for stew. In short, they used various tricks to stimulate Xu Suizhu's lactation.
But no matter how delicious it is, domestic pork grown on sweet potato vines, bone soup or wild fish soup, you will still get tired of it even after drinking it for months.
No, when she saw her aunt coming in with a bowl of pig's trotters, kelp and sesame soup, she quickly changed the subject: "Aunt, there's something I want to discuss with you."
"What's the matter?" her aunt asked smoothly, holding the soup bowl carefully.
"Well, aunt, I don't want to give this baby away. I plan to raise and take care of it myself."
Her aunt was stunned at first, then she felt sorry for it, and frowned and said: "This...can you take care of it yourself? You have to go to work, how can you rest assured leaving such a young baby at home?"
Xu Suizhu had prepared the draft a long time ago, and when he lied, his face did not turn red or he was out of breath: "It is that stinky man who is sorry for me, and it has nothing to do with the child. There is no reason why a child should bear the responsibility for the mistakes adults make. Besides, aunt, I'm going to
When I came back, I had no intention of going back to Haicheng. That place left me only pain. I wanted to come back and find a job, which would be enough to support me and my children."
Xu Xiuyuan was stunned when she heard this.
No wonder she was surprised. Her niece had hated this baby before she was born. If she hadn't been afraid of going to the hospital for shame, and was afraid of hurting herself by jumping around, she would have delayed the birth, or she would have had an abortion long ago.
"Auntie, I know that I am unfilial and have failed you and my uncle's expectations. But now that the child is born, I have to take on the responsibility of being a mother. Otherwise, what's the difference between me and that woman!"
The original protagonist said that after her mother abandoned her and ran away, she no longer addressed her by the word "mom", and even when she did mention it, she always used "that woman" instead.
Xu Suizhu read her diary and always remembered not to make any nonsense to avoid arousing her aunt's suspicion.
Hearing what Xu Suizhu said, Xu Xiuyuan immediately thought about the pain her niece had suffered in Haicheng. How could she dare to let her go back to Haicheng alone? She patted Xu Suizhu's back distressedly and said:
"Come back if you want. This is your home. Everything is nice outside, but it is not as good as the thatched house at home. Besides, you are right, children are always innocent. At first, I objected to your birth because I was worried about this. It is not possible to be born.
Damn, I really feel sorry for this kid. As for a job, what are you afraid of after graduating from college? Your uncle Zhuzhu’s niece next door has graduates from technical secondary schools, and employers are vying for them. Graduating from college is a hot commodity. If you don’t want to go back to Haicheng, don’t go back.
, find a stable job in the county, close to home, and I can still find time to help you take care of the children."
"Aunt, you are so kind to me." Xu Suizhu hugged her aunt in emotion.
"Hey, you're such an adult and you still act like a spoiled child. Okay, let your uncle go to town later and ask your brother and sister-in-law to find out which units in the county are recruiting college students. If there are any suitable ones, go there when you are out of confinement. Come on, take advantage of this
If you drink the soup hot, it will taste boring if you don't drink it cold."
Xu Suizhu: "..." I thought I could escape, but in the end I still had to drink, yum yum yum!
