Chapter 475 Mother and child are safe
When talking about ginseng, Gu Qingqing was distracted for a moment.
Jiang Qingxue gave birth to a son a while ago for the Shen family. I heard it was quite difficult.
After hearing the news, Gu Qingqing gave two of the three old hens that she got from the division of the family in the backyard, two baskets of fresh eggs, an undershirt that Shengxi had made for her unborn child, two duck down quilts, and so on.
Two days later, Mrs. Shen specially asked Manager Shen to deliver a piece of ginseng. The quality was not as good as the one she sold last year, but it was not too bad either.
Also arriving were letters from Shen Chenan.
The letter still contained some interesting things he encountered at the border and his longing for their family.
He said, "There was always a woman who approached his father on purpose. He asked: 'Aunt, am I going to become a cabbage in the field, without a mother to love me or a father to care for me, and slowly grow old?'"
He said, "He liked the soap I brought before, but then Wu Yi and his gang cheated him out of several bars of it."
He said, "I am practicing painting now. I want to draw a desert sunset for her."
He said "..."
He said...
However, after not seeing him for a few months, I could clearly feel that his letters were much more mature than before.
At that time, Gu Qingqing asked Manager Shen to take away a thick duck down quilt specially made for him, some household items, and a letter. In the letter, she told Chen An that when he came back, there would be a child in her family who would call him brother.
"Qingqing, Qingqing, what are you thinking about?" Wen Wuyan, who had just returned, saw Gu Qingqing in a daze, so he stepped forward to show concern.
Gu Qingqing suddenly came back to her senses and looked at Wen Wuyan and asked, "Have you told Shengxi?"
"Well, she and Daxin are waiting outside the door. I asked them both to go back. It will be fine if only one person comes to deliver the things later. It's windy outside." Wen Wuyan replied.
Gu Qingqing nodded at him gratefully.
But after a while, Wen Shengxi came running over, panting, with a box in his hand.
"Wuyan, go to the kitchen and cut a few slices." After Gu Qingqing said this to Wen Wuyan, she called out to Lu Xiaocao at the door. Gu Qingqing wanted to go forward and grab Lu Xiaocao, but she dodged far away. "Sister, don't get too close to me."
"What's going on in there?" Gu Qingqing asked.
"It should be soon. The midwife just touched it with her fingers and said she touched the baby's head." Lu Xiaocao replied.
Hearing this, Gu Qingqing gave another sigh of relief, "I asked your brother-in-law to cut a few slices of ginseng, and you can take them in and let Meihua hold them in your mouth later."
"We still have some sugar-water eggs that we just cooked."
"That's different."
While they were talking, Wen Wuyan took out a few slices of ginseng and handed them to Lu Xiaocao. At Gu Qingqing's urging, Lu Xiaocao went back into the house.
Gu Qingqing didn't let Wen Shengxi stay here for long and sent her away after a while.
At this time, inside the house.
Niu Li half-knelt on the edge of the kang, wiping the tiny beads of sweat from Luo Meihua's forehead with trembling hands, muttering, "My dear girl, gather your strength and hold on. After the baby is born, we will never have another child again, never again."
Niu Li was a little upset. The last time she gave birth to Xiaoyang and Xiaoguang, they were only a dozen days early. Although something went wrong this time, she was really scared when she saw Meihua being soaked in the middle of winter.
She wanted to have many grandchildren, but she wanted Meihua to be safe and sound even more.
Luo Meihua noticed her mother's worry and weakly pulled her lips towards her. She opened her mouth and tried to say that she was fine, but she was too tired to make a sound.
Niu Li saw that she was about to speak and hurriedly stopped her, "Stop talking, save your energy, you will need it later."
Lu Xiaocao came over at this time, "Aunt, Sister Meihua, these are the ginseng slices that my sister asked me to bring in. Put one in your mouth."
At this moment, the midwife suddenly said, "I see the baby's hair, it's jet black. Girl, push harder and he will come out."
Woo~ah!
Gu Qingqing didn't know what was going on inside the house. It was already dark. She spent the afternoon warming up in the east hall and then walked around outside the west hall.
When you get tired of walking around, go back to the east hall.
It was getting dark and colder outside, so she stayed in the east room. She and Wen Wuyan sat side by side on the edge of the kang. She was so tired that she half leaned on Wen Wuyan.
Wen Wuyan looked at her haggard appearance, put his arm around her shoulders and whispered, "Qingqing, why don't we go back first? When the plum blossoms bloom, Xiaocao will definitely come back to tell us the good news as soon as possible."
Gu Qingqing raised her hand and covered the back of Wen Wuyan's hand, "I'm fine. We'll go back after the baby is born."
Just as the two of them were talking, Lu Xiaocao's voice of congratulations came from outside. Then she opened a gap from the other side of the curtain, stuck her head in, and shouted happily to the room, "Sister, it's born, the first one is a son."
Niu Yuzhu, who was in the yard, just learned from Lu Xiaocao that Meihua had given birth to a son for him. He happily pulled aside the door curtain and entered the house, shouting to Wen Wuyan and Gu Qingqing, "Brother Wuyan, sister-in-law, I have a son. Meihua gave birth to a son for me! Hahaha, son is good, son is good. I'm going to be a father."
Niu Yuzhu was like an excited ape at this time, running around the room waving his fists.
"Congratulations." Gu Qingqing said to the excited Niu Yuzhu.
Following her down from the kang, he realized that he was too happy. His legs were so weak that he couldn't stand at all. He could only half-stagger and lean on the kang. "That's great, that's great. The baby is finally born. How is the baby? Why didn't I hear any crying? How is Meihua?"
When Niu Yuzhu heard his sister-in-law asking about Meihua, he finally reacted and quickly turned his head to look at Lu Xiaocao.
Lu Xiaocao was worried about the blood in her body, so she didn't dare to enter the house. She just leaned half of her body in and said, "The ginseng you brought is very effective. Sister Meihua looks more energetic than before. The child looks fine. She cried, but the child looks a little small, so the crying sound is not loud."
Gu Qingqing waved her hand hastily, "Go check out the second one."
After that, she took a short rest and then took Wen Wuyan to the yard to wait.
The first one was born, and the second one came out soon after. This time, Lu Xiaocao came out directly from the house, "Sister, the second one is also a son. Brother Yuzhu, congratulations, sister Meihua gave birth to two sons for you. Uncle, congratulations, you have two more grandchildren."
When Lu Xiaocao saw Niu Zhanghe coming from the kitchen, he also told him the good news.
Niu Zhanghe's face was wrinkled like a walnut, "Two grandsons? Hahaha, great! Where's Meihua? Is Meihua okay?"
"Mother and son are safe!"
After Niu Zhanghe finished laughing, he slapped Niu Yuzhu on the shoulder and said, "Why are you still standing here like an idiot? Go, go to the house and get some money. Ten or twenty copper coins per person. Thank you for your help."
"Hey, I'll go right away."
Just as Niu Yuzhu took out the copper coins, Zhao Qin and the others who were helping came out of the house. Niu Yuzhu hurriedly offered the copper coins to them, "Thank you for your hard work, sisters-in-law."
