Chapter 57: Very good foundation~
The wind and rain are getting lighter, but the sky is still thundering and lightning.

After a night of tension, everyone on the ship could finally breathe a sigh of relief and naturally feel better.

"Girl Qian, boil another pot of hot water. Your mother's child is coming out soon!"

Mrs. Mei shouted with great vigor. It was not at all like the urging tone she used to comfort pregnant women. This time Mei Qian heard very clearly that she was really happy!

The tone sounded much happier than before, and Mei Qian responded simply.

"okay!"

At this time, Mei Erhu, who heard this at the bow of the ship, grinned and grinned. When the lightning flashed, he saw the gate in front of him. Mei Erhu even shouted excitedly: "We are about to pass the gate ahead. You all should sit down and squat." Okay~”

"it is good!"

Everyone responded. Mei Qian reached out to catch the rainwater outside the tent and looked outside the boat. In an instant, lightning flashed across the illuminated front.

For just a moment, Mei Qian saw what seemed to be a row of corpses lying upside down at the gate in front of her.

Mei Qian's face turned pale and she immediately took back her body, her mind filled with thoughts of the scene just now.

Are you not dazzled?
Mei Qian thought about it, and wanted to take another look without believing it, but at this time, the ship's hull bumped violently when it entered the gate.

Mei Qian steadied herself, and when she looked up again, she found that their boat had passed the river gate.

At this moment, another bolt of lightning lit up the sky.

This time, Mei Qian didn't have to stretch her head. The moment she raised her head, she saw a group of corpses of soldiers lying scattered and white in the rain above the gate!
"No wonder..."

Mei Qian's mouth opened slightly, and the words she muttered were drowned in the bursts of thunder that followed.

No wonder the gate suddenly opened.

It turned out that someone had killed the soldiers guarding the gate.

Mei Qian couldn't help but think of those fishing boats last night. If she guessed the time, those people last night could indeed catch up.

This is really a "master's" approach, these "little devils" made mistakes~
Mei Qian sighed and said nothing more.

Last night when all the ships gave way to those small boats by default, everyone on their canal became an accomplice.

"Ho~"

Mei Qian sneered, and then a cry suddenly came from her ears.

"Oh! It's born, it's born! It's a son!"

Han was the first to shout excitedly, and Mei Qian and Mei Erhu, father and daughter, rushed in together.

Mei Erhu first looked at Jiang, whose face was covered with sweat and turned pale.

He was about to open his mouth before he could say anything when he saw Mrs. Mei hand the baby to Mei Erhu, who had just been born and was still crying with her eyes closed before wearing any clothes.

Mei Erhu was so frightened that he was in a hurry but he held the child in his arms very skillfully.

"Hehehe~"

He lowered his head and saw the child crying loudly. Mei Erhu giggled. Upon seeing this, Mrs. Mei took the child over in disgust. Then she remembered Mei Qian and said, "Girl Qian, has the water been boiled?"

"Hey, that's it."

Mei Qian was approaching Jiang and asked Cui'er about Jiang's situation. Fortunately, there was no hemorrhage or other terrible situation that Mei Qian was worried about.

"It's just that I'm a little exhausted." After Cui'er and Mei Qian finished speaking, Mrs. Mei also shouted. Mei Qian turned around and quickly brought the hot water in. Mrs. Mei personally and Han helped clean the baby. Mei Qian and Cui'er also helped to clean Mr. Jiang under the arrangement of Mrs. Mei.

"This boat is simple and crude, and there is no place for confinement, ugh~"

Mrs. Mei wrapped the cleaned baby in a piece of linen cloth that she had never been willing to use.

This was originally intended for the unborn child.

Before the whole family fled, Mrs. Jiang specifically reminded Mei Erhu to bring it with her. Mrs. Mei heard it at the time, and she kept it there and never took it out to use elsewhere.

Now that she had put the child away, Mrs. Mei glanced at Jiang, who was being fed "batter soup" by Mei Qian, and then frowned and talked about confinement.

Mr. Han also nodded as he listened.

Although women in the countryside are not as particular about long-term confinement as those from rich families, Han knew that the women of the Mei family had to have confinement.

Although it's not much, half a month's confinement is still confinement, which is much better than other women who go to bed three days after giving birth.

"If you don't take good care of your body, the cost of taking medicine and seeing a doctor will be greater than the cost of confinement."

If there hadn't been a military disturbance, Mrs. Mei would have gone to the village to exchange for some eggs, and Mei Erhu would have to go to the river to catch some fish, or bring back some meat from the mountains.

If a woman does a good job in confinement, her health will be good, and her milk will provide nutrition to her baby, and her baby will be in good health.

If a woman does not do well during confinement, her health is not good, her child's milk is not good, she needs to take medicine when she is sick, and her child has to spend money to find food rations.

Mrs. Mei calculated this account very clearly. The most important thing is that the farmers are in good health.

Mei Qian always felt that her breasts were very picky, but now it seemed that her breasts were very picky.

She is really an old lady who knows how to spend a lot of money. She can handle both small and big money.

Mei Qian was thinking so and didn't even notice that Jiang had finished the milk tea powder.

“The shallow boiled noodle soup is really delicious.”

She had given birth to a baby in the middle of the night, and she was still tired and sleepy just now. Her lower body still hurt. But she didn't know if the pain was too much. After drinking the "batter soup", Mrs. Jiang felt that she was energetic again!
She didn't pay attention to the conversation between Mrs. Mei and Mrs. Han just now. After drinking the batter soup, she now wanted to stand up and walk around twice.

"It's okay~ Mom, you are tired from giving birth, so everything you eat tastes good."

Mei Qian gradually felt relieved when she saw Mrs. Jiang's face turning rosy. Mrs. Jiang had really gained strength and said she wanted to give the baby a sip of milk.

Mrs. Mei handed the baby over to Mrs. Jiang for a look, but she didn't expect that the baby was actually on breast milk.

Looking at the way the little grandson closed his big eyes and sucked hard, and then burped after drinking quickly, it seemed that the second child's milk was quite sufficient.

This made Mrs. Mei look at Mr. Jiang in shock. She couldn't help but murmured: "I usually see the second son's family looking so sick, but they are actually in better health than the second son's family~ "

Mei Qian heard what her mother said and laughed. She didn't expect that her milk tea powder was so strong. When she turned around, she happened to face her uncle who also heard what her mother said.

Mrs. Han felt aggrieved and shocked, and looked towards Ms. Jiang angrily. Ms. Jiang felt the gaze of her sister-in-law. She looked up and saw the expression on Ms. Jiang's face, with some doubts on her face.

What happened to her sister-in-law?

 Han: Oh my God! ! How am I weaker than my siblings?

  Jiang: I am not weak.

  Han: Then I am even more worthy!

  Mrs. Mei: What the hell are these talking about?
