Escape: I rely on the food exchange system to survive to the extreme

Chapter 56 One after another
"What? My wife is giving birth?"

After wiping the rain off his face, Mei Erhu subconsciously stretched his neck to look into the cabin, but saw nothing.

"I asked you to stabilize the boat and stop wandering around like this. Mom was frightened by the bumps."

"I, I know. I also want to be more stable. The wind and waves are too strong. There is nothing we can do if the boats around us are unstable and hit us."

Mei Erhu also had a sad face. He held the oar tightly, looked at Mei Qian, put on a not-so-good-looking face, and said, "Go back quickly, your elder brother and I are here."

After saying that, he quickly asked Mei Qian to go back. The moment Mei Qian turned her head, lightning pierced the sky. The moment the sky was illuminated, Mei Qian happened to see two small fishing boats that were overturned by the wind and waves and fell into the water. Mei Qian was frightened. Shivering, he got into the cabin.

Her heart was pounding, and Mei Qian's mind was filled with the scene of the capsized boat in the wind and rain with nowhere to turn to.

Mei Qian seemed to have heard the cries for help outside, but she could do nothing but pretend not to hear anything.

In the darkness, Mei Qian heard her own heartbeat that was too fast.

At this moment, Mrs. Mei, who was always thrifty, lit the oil lamp in the cabin.

The big dim light source seemed to have some attraction, making everyone's eyes fall on this light.

"It belongs to everyone."

Mrs. Mei hung the oil lamp in a place in the cabin that was not leaking, put on the lampshade, and then called Mrs. Han.

"Mom, I'm here."

"Hold the second child and lie down on the stool, while you support the second child."

"Yes."

After listening to Mrs. Mei's instructions, Ms. Han quickly stood up, holding one hand on the wall to steady her body slightly, and then with the help of Cui'er, she laid Ms. Jiang down on the stool.

Jiang was a little scared, and she stretched out her hand to grab Han's hand and refused to put it down. Han didn't say anything when he saw this, and just squatted next to Jiang in this posture.

"Tui'er, please give me a hand and help your aunt give birth."

There was no midwife on this ship. Fortunately, Cui'er knew some medical skills, but Cui'er was just a young girl and had never experienced this. In the end, she had to help Mrs. Mei to deliver Jiang's baby.

"Girl Qian, go to the stove at the stern of the ship and see if it can boil water, and take the time to pour the water out of the cabin."

Mrs. Mei wandered to Mr. Jiang's side. As soon as she squatted down, her buttocks were soaked by the water in the cabin, so she quickly added this sentence.

"I know."

Mei Qian had already reached the stern of the boat. Mei Qian put the remaining half bucket of water into the pot. Then she placed the empty bucket at the stern of the boat where there was no canopy to catch some rainwater.

In the space, Mei Qian had previously collected a small pile of dried hay, but she didn't expect to use it so soon.

After she lit a fire with hay, the remaining firewood outside was partly wet by the rain, but it was still dry inside, so it was not difficult to boil water.

When the water was boiling, Mei Qian started to scoop out the water frantically with a gourd and gourd.

Jiang's low voice could be heard from time to time in the cabin, and Mei Qian felt a little anxious when she heard it.

"Is there any water?"

Mei Qian was scooping water when she saw Cui'er rushing over.

"It's burning."

"Cold water is fine, let me wipe my body with my aunt."

"Is the rain okay?"

Mei Qian pointed to the bucket that was collecting rainwater over there.

"Row."

Cui'er stepped forward and carried the bucket directly in. Before going in, she looked at Mei Qian and said, "Auntie's pregnancy will probably take a while. After boiling the water, if you have time, you can get some food for Auntie." "I will." Got it." Mei Qian nodded, and after Cui'er entered, she took a look at the food currently stored in her space.

Before Li Baizhou left, Mei Qian not only gave him pancakes mixed with compressed biscuit powder, but also gave him half a pack of high-energy milk tea powder.

There's still half a pack left.

Just in case, Mei Qian decided to save the milk tea powder for Jiang after she gave birth to a child.

In case of any accident, something that can instantly replenish qi and blood energy is most needed.

There were also nutrient solutions and compressed biscuit powder. Thinking of the seasoned compressed biscuit powder that Li Youyou specially made for her, Mei Qian thought of Mei Erhu and Mei Shitou who were still rowing in the wind and rain.

At this moment, she made a decision.

···
"Milk, this is wild fruit tea made for Mom and you. It's sweet. Drink it before continuing."

Mei Qian came in carrying a pot of hot water diluted with white peach flavored nutrient solution. Cui Er frowned slightly when she heard that Mei Qian just boiled tea. She wanted to open her mouth to say something, but Mei Qian handed the tea to her. of the mouth.

After taking a sip of this slightly sour and fragrant tea, not to mention, I felt much better after drinking it.

Cui'er forgot what she wanted to say after drinking it. She saw that Mei Qian had already fed Jiang the water with the help of Han. Soon, Jiang's pale face also improved a lot, and she relaxed. tone.

Mei Qian also breathed a sigh of relief.

When things in the cabin were over, Mei Qian went to the bow of the ship to add additional "sauce" and urged Mei Erhu and Mei Shitou to drink it while they had the opportunity.

"What's this?"

Mei Shitou and Mei Erhu both drank it first as a sign of respect, but after drinking it, they felt something was wrong with the taste. Their stomachs, oh no, their bodies seemed to feel a little warm.

"It's a little spicy wild grass, don't catch a cold."

Even though they were wearing raincoats, Mei Erhu and Mei Shitou's bodies had already been stained with rainwater during the wind and rain. It was not impossible for them to catch cold or become hypothermic in the long run.

After adding a little bit of the compressed biscuit powder with pepper and aniseed powder to the hot water and giving it to the uncle and nephew who were sailing the boat in the wind and rain, Mei Qian breathed a sigh of relief and returned to the stern of the boat.

The cabin was filled with a worrying smell of blood, and Mei Qian continued to boil a new pot of hot water.

She glanced into the cabin from time to time. Fortunately, Mrs. Mei kept repeating words like "It's coming out soon" and "It's coming soon" in her ears. While Mei Qian was reassured, Jiang's fear was also reduced a lot.

The heavy rain was still falling, and Mei Qian continued to splash the rainwater that had flowed into the cabin. While splashing, she couldn't help but look towards the canal.

The big ship with lights on in the distance was only slightly bumpy in the wind and waves, which was different from the lone boat on the side that completely tipped over when the wind and waves hit.

Mei Qian withdrew her gaze with some envy in her heart.

I don't know how long it took, but with the sound of "touch", Mei Qian's mind came back from the burning hot water again.

"Mom! We seem to be almost at the river gate! There are many boats here, and collisions are inevitable!"

Mei Erhu was excited and a little worried. He was afraid that the bumps would frighten everyone in the cabin, so he explained quickly.

"That's great. You should also be careful and make sure you pass."

After Mrs. Mei finished her instructions, Mrs. Jiang next to her screamed in pain again, which attracted her attention again.

"Ah, it's coming soon, the child is finally here! It's coming soon!"

Mei Qian heard that she was about to leave the canal, and Jiang's children were coming out over there. Her mood suddenly became brighter, and she even found that the wind and waves on the canal were gradually getting smaller at this time. Get up...
