Blessed woman in the farm gate

Chapter 160 Xiao Shui Shui

Li Fuyue went out in the rain and gained something. There is a forest next to the mountain temple. Although there are not many herbs, but if you search carefully, you can still find what you need.

Li Fuyue washed the collected herbs in the rain, and packed up the tattered earthen jars left in the mountain temple, connected the rainwater and put them aside for later use, while she wrung out the water from her clothes and gave her hands After wiping it dry, I fumbled out the flint and steel. After a long time of effort, I finally lit the fire.

While roasting on the fire, put the herbs in the rainwater and cook them.

Although the process is a bit simple and rough, it is better than nothing if it works a bit, right?The baby was still crying, and Li Fuyue was worried that his voice would be broken from crying, so she hugged and coaxed him for a long time before the baby calmed down a bit.Li Fuyue knew in her heart that it was because he was hungry and wanted to drink milk, but now his mother was still asleep, and it was such a wild country, where could there be milk to feed him?

By the time the herbal medicine was about to finish, the newborn had already cried for two rounds, and Li Fuyue had checked on the mother three times, and the exhausted woman who had just given birth finally woke up slowly.

The mother's face was bloodless, and her forehead hair wet with sweat was still condensed on her forehead. Li Fuyue also wiped it for her, but it soon got wet again. It can be seen that the mother did not sleep well.

After waking up, the parturient was still a little dazed. She first touched her belly subconsciously, and found that the originally high belly had deflated at this moment. As her consciousness came back, she understood the current situation: "My child, my child..."

When she saw the wrinkled red-skinned monkey, the mother's tears flowed down. She covered her mouth and wanted to hug it, but she was afraid that she would not have the strength to hold it, so she just stared blankly at the newborn baby. After a while, he cried and laughed and said, "Why does this child look like a monkey?"

Li Fuyue 囧, although she also thinks so, but as a real mother, is it not good to say so?

After saying this, the newborn baby started to cry again, and the mother looked at Li Fuyue as if asking for help, her expression full of astonishment: "Benefactor, can a newborn baby already understand human speech?"

Li Fuyue laughed: "How can there be such a situation, the child is just hungry and wants to breastfeed." The mother nodded repeatedly: "Oh! Oh!" She hurriedly wanted to hug the child, but she really had no strength, and finally Li Fuyue hugged her baby, and the newborn finally stopped making noise after drinking the milk. Both Li Fuyue and the mother breathed a sigh of relief.

Li Fuyue took out the herbs boiled in the crock and warmed them up, and handed them to the mother: "He is full, now it's time for you to take care of his body." The mother thanked her again, and then took it to drink.

After drinking the herbal medicine and resting for a while, the mother's strength was obviously stronger. She looked at the child who was smashing her mouth softly, her body was shrouded in the brilliance of motherhood, and the mother had a good appearance. The skin is also fair and delicate, and she is not an ordinary woman at first glance.She stared blankly at the child for a while, then remembered and asked, "By the way, benefactor, is this child... a boy or a girl?"

Li Fuyue replied: "It's a boy, this is the umbilical cord, please keep it."

The mother who got the answer was stunned. After taking the umbilical cord, she stretched out her slender fingers to brush the baby's shallow hair, and said in her mouth: "That's okay, that's okay." But her face was clear. There is an emotion called sadness.

Could it be that this woman wanted her daughter to a point of paranoia?Otherwise what is sorrow?Li Fuyue couldn't help but think again, she has Youxi.

Just as she was thinking wildly, the mother suddenly stood up, knelt down to Li Fuyue, and then bowed Yingying: "This bow is to thank the benefactor for saving our mother and son." After speaking, she bowed again: "And this second obeisance... is for the benefactor to take in my child!"

Li Fuyue was confused by this, and immediately went to help the mother: "What are you doing? You just gave birth, and your body is still weak. Besides, what's the point of asking me to take your baby in?"

The mother endured it, but still couldn't hold back her tears: "If my son is a girl, I can still take her home, but if my son is a boy, I must never take him back, otherwise... for him, it will only be It's a dead end."

Li Fuyue subconsciously wanted to ask why, but she swallowed the words. First, even if she asked, the other party might not answer; Think hard.

The mother took out something from the long sleeve.

It was a piece of jade pendant with interlocking jade rings, without tassels as decoration, but the whole body of jade was clear and warm to the touch, it was a rare warm jade, which showed its priceless value.The parturient woman pressed the original complete jade ring from the middle, and then it turned into two semi-circular rings. The parturient woman handed both pieces to Li Fuyue: "Little girl also knows that my request is too presumptuous, but I have to mention it. My benefactor saved me." It killed my mother and son, and the only person I can trust at this time is the benefactor. In the future, I will come to find the child and repay the benefactor. Whether the benefactor is willing or not, this family heirloom jade pendant will be given to the benefactor."

After finishing speaking, the mother made a long bow: "These three bows are to thank the benefactor for his ingenuity and ingenuity. He made a decoction for me to restore my vitality."

Li Fuyue looked up at the rain curtain outside the mountain temple. There were only a few clouds and smoke in the distance. She sighed, "Get up."

The mother hesitated for a while, but finally stood up and looked at Li Fuyue: "...benefactor?"

Li Fuyue said for a long time: "I agree, until you find him, I will treat him as a parent and child." The mother's eyes filled with tears: "Thank you benefactor!" up.

When the heavy rain stopped, the weak mother took one last look at the sleeping baby, and then left the place with a hard heart. The heavy rain washed away the traces, and Li Fuyue took pains to cover it up, and it seemed that nothing happened in the mountain temple. However, when she came, Li Fuyue was alone, and when she left, she held a newborn baby who was sleeping soundly after eating and drinking.

When Li Fuyue came home, the sleeping child started whimpering softly again, and then wailed loudly again. Li Fuyue hurriedly coaxed him, but the Li family members were also attracted by the child's voice.

"Where is the cry of the child coming from?" "Let's go and have a look." Li Shu and Mrs. Yu walked out of the Li family's courtyard first. When they saw Li Fuyue, they saw the child in her arms before they could be happy.

"Fuyue, you're back... Hey, who is this kid?"

"It's a long story." Li Fuyue entered the room with the child in her arms.Li Miaoyue and Li Yayue were also there at this time, and they were shocked to see this obviously newborn child. "Fuyue, this child..." When Li Fuyue came back, she had already thought up her speech, and said the general things: "I was in the mountain temple over there, and I saw a pregnant woman with dystocia, and I was the only one beside me. After the child was born, he died of blood loss and entrusted the child to me, saying that the family would not treat him well. I stood by for a while, and two people came later and carried away the body of the pregnant woman. gone."

The Li family members were all stunned when they heard this, and Yu stroked her heart: "There is such a thing, Fuyue, fortunately you were not discovered at the time, otherwise you might have something to do. As for this child, how could such a thing happen?" Good luck, I think we are destined to come to our family. Newborn babies have to drink milk. Although our family does not have a newborn baby, there are still some nearby. We pay for nutrition and let this baby drink milk. Live."

Mrs. Yu likes children very much, and feels sorry for the child who lost his biological mother when he was born, so he feels even more distressed. At this time, he hugged the baby and coaxed him slowly.

Li Miaoyue also came over, not daring to reach out to touch it, and watched from the side: "By the way, does this child have a name?"

The mother was afraid that she would be even more reluctant, so she didn't tell Li Fuyue the child's baby name at all. Li Fuyue shook her head: "I don't have a name yet."

The matter of naming made the people in the room worry about it. Li Miaoyue was very keen on naming the children. At this time, she looked at the puddle in the yard outside and had a flash of inspiration: "It is said that a humble name is better. How about calling it Shui Shui? Anyway, it’s a baby name, so you don’t need to be too particular about it. The name Shui Shui is not expensive, but it sounds good, and the day the child was born, it rained so much, so it fits the occasion.”

Li Fuyue smiled: "This name is good, but this child is a boy, isn't it too delicate to choose a girl's name?" Li Miaoyue slightly widened her eyes: "Ah? Is it a boy? I I really didn't see it, this child is so delicate, I thought it was a girl doll." Li Miaoyue pondered for a while: "But I think, even though it is a boy, the name Shui Shui is still feasible as a baby name. , Shuishui, Shuishui, how nice it sounds."

Li Fuyue smiled: "I also think this name is good, so let's decide it like this, Shuishui?" As he said, he lightly poked Shuishui's little face. The child was not asleep, and his little brow frowned Wrinkled, she was about to cry again, but was coaxed by Li Yayue, Li Fuyue stuck out her tongue, little guy, I was the one who delivered the baby for you.

Babies always eat less and eat more. After Li Fuyue settled the baby, she went out to find women with milk around her. The people who came to her were a little surprised. If Li Fuyue was not a familiar face in the neighborhood, she probably would have accused officer.Li Fuyue found three companies, and they all negotiated the price. They would give these milk providers five taels of silver a month, and those who were unwilling to do so readily agreed. Five taels of silver is enough to feed the family for half a year, which is simply too cost-effective.

The problem of Shui Shui's breastfeeding was solved in this way, but as a newborn, it is extremely fragile, and it has been rainy from time to time these few days, and the problem of keeping the baby warm has become serious. Fortunately, there are many children born in the Li family in winter. There is a lot of experience in keeping children warm.

All the children of the Li family showed great interest in the sudden arrival of the baby.Youxi was especially excited, now she is finally not the youngest!Youxi propped her chin, looked at her sleeping little brother, and smiled innocently: "Shui Shui, Shui Shui, you have to grow up quickly, when you grow up, sister can take you to play , Elder sister knows a lot of fun things! Like making snowballs and hide-and-seek, they are all very interesting!"

It was the first time for Youxi to claim to be her older sister. Now her face was full of smiles and her heart was very satisfied. Finally, someone younger than her came and she could be called her older sister.

Zhiwei frowned and looked at the baby in the cradle: "He is so small, and he loves to sleep, I didn't even see him awake." Li Fuyue stood by, and said with a smile: "Fortunately, he's still asleep. If he wakes up, he won't be at peace." Bai Che is eight years old this year, and his stature is growing fast. There is still some baby fat on his face, and his cheeks are slightly bulging: "This is Your child?"

The child's questions are always like this, with a sudden cuteness.

Li Fuyue rubbed Bai Che's head: "For now, he is my child." Bai Che nodded: "I understand."

understand what?The world of young children is really elusive.The two were talking, and Youxi and Jing Zhi were looking at Shuishui on the baby's cradle, but Youxi couldn't stand still, and shook her hand on the cradle, and the cradle started to shake like this, Li Fuyue thought, bad up.

Sure enough, her intuition was correct. With the shaking of the cradle, the sleeping newborn was awakened, followed by a loud cry.

"Wow--" Youxi looked at her little hand apologetically, and soon her hand moved to her ear: "Ah, he is so noisy, he has a really loud voice." Li Fuyue clapped her hands angrily. Patting Youxi on the shoulder: "Don't even think about it, which little devil woke him up?"

Youxi stuck out her tongue, trying to pretend she couldn't hear: "What are you talking about, my brother, my brother is too noisy, I didn't hear what you said clearly, I'd better go out and play, brother, let's go!" He led Jing Zhi and ran into the yard.

The rest of Bai Che and Zhiwei are each other's playmates. Seeing Youxi and Jing Zhi ran away, they followed suit: "Wait a minute, let's play together."

After the four children all went to play in the yard, Li Fuyue picked up the crying child and walked gently in her arms: "Okay, okay, good boy, Auntie is here."

Li Fuyue is not very good at coaxing children, but her voice became softer, with a kind of magic power that can make people feel at ease. The baby in her arms gradually stopped crying. She had just finished feeding, and her body still smelled of milk. It's not as red and wrinkled as it was when it was just born, but it gradually becomes white and tender, extremely cute. Li Fuyue likes milky children the most, and her heart softens a little when she sees this.

The arrival of Shui Shui brought joy to the Li family, but during this period of time, the peaceful atmosphere of the Li family did not exist in the city. The first thing that broke out was a food crisis, just as Li Fuyue had predicted before. The price of grain in the city increased exponentially every day, and this rising trend naturally caused people to panic. Panic buying of grain has become a scene that can be seen everywhere in the city.
