When Bai Banxia saw them bringing silver hairpins and rouge gouache to her, she was moved and a little bit dumbfounded.
"Sister-in-law, I have received your kindness, but I am not used to carrying silver hairpins. It would be a pity if I lost them. You should put them away quickly." She said and stuffed them back to Lin Rongrong.
She was not used to using rouge and gouache either. She pointed to her face and said, "My face will be itchy, so this is fine."
"This is too routine for you." Lin Rongrong said worriedly.
"Then I'm usually like this, so why don't I go and be more open-minded? We won't compare ourselves with others. I feel comfortable and don't feel awkward." Bai Banxia said with a smile.
Li Shi wanted to say something else, but Lin Rongrong thought about it, pulled her mother-in-law and said: "I understand, my sister's self-confidence comes from within, and it cannot be replaced by clothes or jewelry. I think she is fine.
"
Bai Banxia took her sister-in-law's pulse again. After these days of conditioning, Lin Rongrong's fetus was much more stable and the redness no longer appeared.
"Ugh..." Lin Rongrong suddenly retched and rushed out of the house.
Some people had severe morning sickness, while others had mild morning sickness. Bai Banxia hurriedly followed her out and found Lin Rongrong retching in the yard for a long time, but nothing came out.
Her eyes were red from retching, tears were welling up in her eyes, and she looked very uncomfortable.
"Sister-in-law, let me rub your acupoints to make things better." She grabbed Lin Rongrong's hand and rubbed it, and then told her where to press it to relieve the pain. As expected, Lin Rongrong was much better.
"It will make you feel happy at first. If you don't vomit too much, it is generally not recommended to take medicine. It is not very good for the fetus, so if you feel uncomfortable, just press it to relieve it." Bai Banxia told her in detail, "And if you smell
Don’t hold back if you smell something that makes you want to vomit, or if you eat something that makes you want to vomit, write it all down. Recently, our family has been avoiding these things.”
Lin Rongrong was a little embarrassed, "Are you too squeamish?"
"How come? You may be allergic to smells and foods that are irritating to you. Since you can avoid it, why should you and your child suffer?" Bai Banxia said seriously, "It is not easy for women to give birth, so don't wrong yourself.
Besides, if you continue to feel uncomfortable, it will also affect the fetus."
"Okay, okay, I'll note it down." Lin Rongrong responded.
Early the next morning, Bai Banxia asked her aunt to help Xiaocao comb her hair into a beautiful bun. She could stick a needle with her own hands, but she couldn't comb her hair dexterously. Fortunately, her aunt at home was very good at combing her hair.
"Sister, my brother is coming with us, can we let him bring the little snowball?" Xiaocao asked cautiously.
Bai Banxia shook her head, "No, it's too young. You might get sick if you take it out. Let's wait until it's older."
"Okay, I want to show Mei'er." Xiaocao said with some disappointment.
Bai Banxia touched her head, "Sister, I understand that you want to share the joy with your friends, but Snowball is still a baby, so we have to consider its safety, right? If it goes out and gets sick, will you feel more uncomfortable?
"
"Then it's better not to do it." Xiaocao shook her head hastily, she couldn't bear to let Little Snowball get sick.
The family went to set up a stall. When the number of customers gradually increased, Mr. Nan's family also arrived. Bai Banxia helped her parents make arrangements, and then she, Qi Zhen and Xiaocao followed Mr. Nan's family to the Zhou Mansion.
When everyone met, there was no shortage of greetings. Mr. Nan and his family once again solemnly saluted Mr. Zhou, Bai Banxia, and Qi Zhen to express their gratitude.
"No thanks, this is what I should do." Mr. Zhou returned the greeting and said, "I was also very emotional about what happened last time. Today, we have made arrangements to start a population survey from surrounding villages and towns."
What he was talking about last time was referring to Mrs. Li Song's admission of the wrong child.
"This workload is not small." Mr. Nan said in surprise.
Mr. Zhou nodded, "I will also take time to do it myself, and take the officials with me to check the registration. On the one hand, the county's population records are indeed vague, and we can use this to sort out the records. On the other hand, we can check for hidden dangers in advance, and we may gain something."
."
Mr. Nan stood up and saluted Mr. Zhou solemnly, "I thank you again, Mr. Zhou."
Bai Banxia was also a little moved. The county magistrates of Juexia Kingdom generally serve for three years. In order to prevent local officials from embezzling Yurou Township, they will most likely be transferred after three years and replaced by other county magistrates. Some county magistrates only want stability, which is a bit
I just want to explain my political achievements and don't want to waste time and energy on this place that I will have to leave sooner or later.
Just like the former county magistrate, if the missing person was not found, he would not record it in the book, so as not to affect his political performance, and then walk away.
There is really no benefit to a census like Zhou Hai's who does it himself, but he still chooses to do it.
Zhou Hai helped Mr. Nan and said, "Before I became a parent, I didn't understand this either. I couldn't feel at ease when I saw the Li family woman acting like that that day. I hope there will be a good result after this investigation."
"
"I hope God will bless mother and daughter to reunite soon." Mrs. Nan said with red eyes.
The atmosphere was a bit gloomy when this incident was mentioned, and everyone became sad. Zhou Mei, who has been carefree since childhood, asked with a confused look: "Dad, what's wrong with you? Can you let Sister Banxia take us to the garden to play?"
Seeing his daughter's smiling face, Zhou Hai's mood improved and he said with a smile: "I'm sorry you listened to our nagging, let's go play."
Zhou Mei pulled Nan Qian and Xiao Cao, "Sister Banxia, let's go feed the fish."
Bai Banxia laughed, "Let's go!"
She walked to Qi Zhen, paused, and whispered: "You don't want to go? Then you have to wait for us to leave."
"I have something to talk to Mr. Zhou." Qi Zhen's lips curved, "I'll definitely wait for you."
Bai Banxia felt relieved and ran out with Zhou Mei and the others.
"Sister, why do you seem to be afraid that your brother will run away?" Xiaocao asked curiously, "Does my brother want to go somewhere else?"
"No, no, our little grass has gained weight. I'm afraid Qi Zhen will leave first and I won't be able to hold you when I go back." Bai Banxia said with a smile.
Xiaocao pouted, "I'm not fat!"
Zhou Mei pinched her cheek and said, "Yes, Xiaocao is not as fat as me."
Nan Qian also giggled, "It's because Sister Banxia is too weak and not as strong as Brother Qi Zhen, so she can't hold her."
The three little girls started laughing, and Bai Banxia also laughed. She was even more determined not to let Qi Zhen go looking for a wife, otherwise she would be very tired when she took Xiaocao out.
Maybe she was playing too crazy, Xiaocao sweated a little, and the wound became itchy. She remembered that Bai Banxia wouldn't let her scratch it, but the itching was really severe, so she said to Bai Banxia with a grimace: "Sister, my wound
itch."
Bai Banxia took her to a pavilion and sat down, unbuttoned her clothes to check, took cotton wool to wipe her sweat, and applied a new layer of ointment on it.
"Xiaocao, are you in pain?" Zhou Mei asked with concern.
Xiaocao shook his head, "It doesn't hurt anymore, it's just itchy. Wouldn't it be ugly?"
Zhou Mei and Nan Qian shook their heads. Nan Qian also said, "Just listen to my sister and you will get better."
