Chapter 33 33. The Birth of a Niece

Long before the summer harvest, Fang Dayong and Fang Rui had already raised late rice seedlings in the field specially marked out by Yunqing according to the content in the agricultural manual. They did not know how to plant scientifically, and the advantage was that they were obedient. How to do it, even if it is contrary to their previous cognition, they will do it right. Although Fang Dayong will mutter a few words in private, but muttering will not delay his implementation. Beautiful, after the summer harvest, just plow the ground and fertilize, and after it is fully dried, you can continue to water and transplant the rice seedlings.

The hot weather in June makes people flustered, especially for those who are pregnant. Yunxi has an eight- or nine-month-old stomach, and she sweats all over her body at every turn. She can't do anything and is upset all day long. Yes, she always wanted to lose her temper. Li Changsong felt sorry for her, and after finding out that Xuanzhen Temple was cooler than the city, he impudently begged Yunqing, hoping that Yunxi could come and stay for two months to escape the heat.

Li Changsong is now an official scholar. Although his ranking is low, he passed the exam, and he can be called a gentleman when he goes out. But in front of Yun Qing, he still can't stand the airs at all. He was a little embarrassed to ask for ordinary requests, but Yun Qing didn't care and agreed directly.

To be honest, if it wasn't for Yunxi being someone else's daughter-in-law, Yunqing would of course be more willing to take her by his side to take care of her. It would be better for Li Changsong to propose it on his own initiative, saving her the need to find a reason.

After obtaining the consent, Li Changsong brought Yunxi over in the afternoon. Yunqing placed Yunxi in the guest room, looked at her belly, frowned and said, "Are you about to give birth? Have you invited the midwife?"

Yunxi rubbed her stomach and smiled: "I just asked the doctor to look at it yesterday, and said that it was half a month before the delivery, and the midwife has also been found, and it's just across the street from my house, just invite her a day or two in advance. Sister, don't worry, my aunt and my husband have made arrangements."

Yun Qing said: "That's good. It seems that you have discussed it. If you want to stay in confinement with me, it is Li Changsong's heart."

"My sister's place is much cooler than in the city. My husband thinks it's better for me to live here, but he thinks it's too much trouble for my sister, so I'm too embarrassed to speak up, but I know my sister won't think I'm annoying, so I come here with the cheek... ..." Yunxi said with a smile.

Yun Qing smiled, and asked again: "Why didn't Madam Zhen come with you? I haven't seen you for a while, how is she?"

"She is doing well. I see that she is much more energetic than at the beginning of the year. She is full of energy, diligent and careful. With her help, I have saved a lot of worry. Just selling Jade Skin Cream every month, at least I can earn a lot of money." More than 100 taels. At the beginning, I paid her and another sister-in-law five taels of silver. Seeing how capable they are, it has risen to ten taels last month. I heard her whispering to the sister-in-law, saying yes To save her daughter's dowry, I told them to rest and refused to rest. I have been heavy for the past few months, and I originally wanted to give them a two-month vacation, but neither of them is willing, and they are probably still busy now!"

"No wonder she came to see her daughter in such a hurry these few times. It seems that life has a bright future, and she is energetic. Although Yinglian suffered a lot in the early years, she has such a mother who is dedicated to her. In the future, she will All the hardships have come." Yun Qing sighed.

Yunxi saw a lot of paint and painting utensils in Yunqing's study, so she asked her, "Is my sister learning to paint?"

"Yeah, learn a lot in your spare time, you won't be overwhelmed by the arts!"

"Is it easy to learn? I used to watch Miss Wu's family learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and always complained that it was difficult, but I watched from the side, and it didn't seem that difficult. How does my sister feel?" Yunxi asked curiously.

"Look at the talent. Anyway, I don't think it's too easy. In the words of the Taoist priest, if I practice patiently for 20 years, I can become a painter. If I want to become famous and start a family, I have no hope in this life, but I never thought about it." How much you want to achieve, it’s all about cultivating your sentiment.”

Yunxi chuckled, and said: "Elder sister can't do it, so I can't do it. Originally, I said that if it's not too difficult, I will follow the study after the child is born. It seems that I don't want to humiliate myself."

Yun Qing was about to speak when Wang Youniang reported at the door: "Master Daoist, dinner is ready, please have dinner with Mrs. Li."

So everyone moved to the dining room. After the meal, the two sisters went back to their rooms to rest. Yunxi did not come alone. Li Changsong also hired a woman in her thirties to accompany Yunxi at night. If you want to drink saliva or need to wake up at night, just call her, as Yunxi said, you don't need to worry about it.

From then on, Yunxi lived with peace of mind, because she was here, and Li Changsong would come to see her every two days. She went to Daoist Yu's side. The three of them played chess or the piano, and occasionally went to the pond to enjoy the lotus. Snacks, admiring the surrounding lakes and mountains, but also leisurely.

Occasionally, Yun Qing would also write a few lines of poems. How do you say that sentence, "If you are familiar with three hundred Tang poems, you can slip away without knowing how to write poems." Although her level is not very good, the poems she writes have no artistic conception. You can't make mistakes in rhymes and rhymes, and Daoist Yu and the others always comfort her, saying that there are shortcomings in the ruler and strengths in the inch. Although she is not good at poetry and poetry, she has a strong mind and is quite good at chess. Talent, in time, will definitely become a great tool, and so on, that is to praise her in different ways, for fear that she will be hit.

Of course Yun Qing is not so fragile. She has a very clear understanding of herself. She has passed the stage of ignorance where she would feel that she is omnipotent. Isn't it because she has no talent in literature and art? What's the matter?In the field she is good at, she is also a genius that others look up to, so she has never lacked confidence. Of course, because there were too many geniuses around her in the past, she was not given a chance to be arrogant. She hit others and was hit by others However, she is very self-aware now, but the two Taoist priests kindly comforted her, and she appreciates this feeling.

According to Yunqing's calculation, Yunxi's expected date of delivery is at the end of June. Therefore, when Li Changsong came over on June 28, even if Yunxi didn't show any signs, Yunqing still asked him to send the midwife when he went back, and Li Changsong naturally did so. , Early the next morning, she sent the person over. Yun Qing personally went over and asked the midwife a lot of things. Seeing that she was really experienced, she was a little relieved. I couldn't help being a little flustered, but I didn't dare to show it, for fear of affecting Yunxi, so I had to endure it.

Fortunately, this situation didn't last long. On the evening of 29, Yunxi was activated. The midwives were in charge of delivering the babies. Wang Zhong's family's helpers and Fang Dayong's family led people to heat the hot water. Yun Qing insisted on going in regardless of their objections. In the delivery room, even if she couldn't intervene, she had to watch from the sidelines. Although hearing Yunxi's groans and pains was very worrying, and Li Changsong's thoughts outside were also disturbing. Fortunately, there were no accidents during the delivery. After a difficult night, Yunxi gave birth to a little girl safely when the first ray of dawn fell on the horizon. Although she fell asleep tired after the baby was born, the mother and daughter were safe after all.
