Pastoral little master

Chapter 408 Accident
"Mother Liu, what's the matter?" Mrs. Xu hurriedly stopped the woman in charge and asked.

Mama Liu, the woman in charge, was blocked by someone and was about to get angry, but when she looked up, she saw that it was Mrs. Xu, and hurriedly raised her face with a smile, "Oh, it's the wife of the in-laws, please come to the room quickly, young mistress has a stomachache, I hurry up Please go steadily."

While Mama Liu was speaking, the Kang family's carriage drove quickly from the side alley.

"Mother Liu, hurry up." The coachman shouted loudly from the carriage.

"Hey, my wife, the maidservant is going first, and I will confess to you when I come back." Mother Liu bowed to Mrs. Xu, and then hurried into the carriage.

Qiduo's family did not expect such a coincidence that Erxia was about to give birth.

The joy of being promoted to a new generation dilutes the melancholy of parting with the Shen family, and the family rushed into the Kang family compound.

Seeing Qiduo's family who came suddenly, the Kang family was also very surprised.

After hearing Xu's explanation, the Kang family laughed and said it was a coincidence.

After exchanging pleasantries, Mrs. Xu went back to Erxia's room with Mrs. Kang to see Erxia.

The Qiduo sisters are not allowed to go to see Erxia give birth because they have not yet left the cabinet, and Tan Dejin and Liu Lang are men, let alone go. Master Kang accompanied them to drink tea in the main hall.

Kang Jin was waiting outside Erxia's room.
However, everyone was not in the mood to drink tea seriously, and all listened to the movements in Erxia's room.

The most nervous one is Qiduo. People say that when a woman gives birth to a child, it is actually just a piece of paper between her and the King of Hades. This shows that it is dangerous.

In her previous life, Qiduo would not have worried so much, but in the ancient times when medical technology was relatively backward, she had to worry. She didn't believe in Buddhism, so she couldn't help praying secretly in her heart, praying that God would bless Erxia's mother and child Safety!
After an unknown amount of time, Qiduo and the others faintly heard the cry of a baby, and then a little maid rushed over with a happy face.

"My lord, my lord, the young mistress gave birth to my master, and I congratulated my in-laws and my lord." The little maid said with a articulate smile.

"Great, okay, by the way, is it the young master or the young lady?" Master Kang stood up excitedly, and asked the little girl with a red face.

After Qiduo and his family stood up excitedly, they looked at the little girl with scorching eyes, expecting her answer.

"If you go back to the master, it's the young master, who weighs seven catties and six taels." The little maid replied, and then added, "Mother and child are safe."

Qiduo finally breathed a sigh of relief, mother and child are safe.

The little nephew weighs seven catties and six ounces, which is not light, which means that he has developed well in the mother's body and his physical fitness should be better.

She remembered that Mrs. Xu once said that the reason why Liu Lang was weak and sick since he was a child was that he was so small when he was born, only weighing more than four catties, like a kitten. Later, he suffered more hardships than others on the way of growing up.

Fortunately, with Wen Xiuyi's superb medical skills, Liu Lang was pulled out of the sea of ​​suffering.

The Kang family soon heard the sound of firecrackers, Mrs. Kang smiled and arranged for people to make red eggs, and then ordered people to prepare gifts for the good news.

But Qiduo and the others did not see Erxia and her nephew, Xu said that they would not be able to see them until the day of Xisan.

Qiduo's family went back to Tanjiazhuang in a carriage happily.

"Father, mother, congratulations on becoming grandparents." Qi Duo joked to her parents with a smile.

"Pfft, your father and I are grandparents, and you and Ju are also aunts, real aunts." Xu smiled and couldn't stop talking.

There is a saying in the countryside, which means that after a woman gives birth to a son, the gatehouse of her natal family must be one foot higher.

Now Erxia gave birth to a boy, how could Xu be unhappy.

This is mainly caused by the ancient thought that men are superior to women. In modern times, no matter men or women, family members would love and love them equally.

When the carriage arrived at the gate of the Tan family compound, Tan Dejin took the initiative to stop the carriage, then turned his head and said to Mrs. Xu in the carriage, "Mingxiu, I'll go down and tell my parents to make them feel relieved, so you don't have to remember it." .”

"Hey, I'll go with you." Xu replied with a smile, and the crow's feet appeared at the corners of her eyes.
Tan Dejin went to the Tan family compound with Mrs. Xu.

When Mr. Tan and Mrs. Zhao learned that Erxia had given birth to a boy, they also narrowed their eyes with smiles, and even claimed that Erxia was lucky to give birth to a big fat boy for the Kang family as soon as she entered the house.

Mrs. Zhao called Mrs. Wu and asked her to prepare the confinement ceremony. After Kang came in to announce the good news, she would take her to Kang's house to visit Erxia at three o'clock the day after tomorrow.

Tan Dejin and Mrs. Xu went out of the yard together again, and the family returned home.

Seeing Tang Ling'e and Tan Debao, Tan Dejin naturally wanted to tell them the good news.

After hearing this, the two were very happy, congratulated Tan Dejin and his wife repeatedly, and then went to prepare a gift for Erxia.

Mrs. Xu also brought Liuju and Qiduo to prepare gifts.

These gifts have been prepared a long time ago, today I just gathered them together and checked them carefully.

Gifts are mainly for children, ranging from large quilts to small diapers and drool pads, all of which are made of high-quality muslin.

In addition to these things, gold locks, silver collars, bracelets and anklets were also made.

Then there are foods and medicinal materials for Erxia to nourish her body.

All together, there are two loads.

Early the next morning, Kang Jin came to announce the good news with a gift.

Although Qiduo's family knew that Erxia had given birth, according to customs and etiquette, the Kang family had to send someone with a gift to say something, and invite them to participate in the three baptisms tomorrow, commonly known as the good news.

Red eggs are essential for the Annunciation.

Red eggs are ordinary eggs that are boiled and dyed red, representing festive and auspicious.

Kang Jin first came to Qiduo's house, and then went to Mr. Tan's house, but he didn't even sit on a stool, because he had to go to Xu's house in Wangsong County to announce the good news.

Erxia's relatives were all run by Kang Jin himself, and the relatives of Kang's family were invited by cousins.

Mrs. Zhao came to Qiduo's house in person, and made an appointment with Mrs. Xu to go to Kang's house tomorrow, and said that she would take Tan Guihua with her.

Xu said with a smile.

Since Tan Guihua learned embroidery and needlework from Mrs. Xu, she has changed a lot. She has become more stable in dealing with people, and she can basically not miss the etiquette that should be known.

Qiduo's family saw her changes and were delighted.

On the day of Erxia Xisan, Qiduo's family put on new clothes, brought heavy gifts, and went to the county seat in a carriage.

Because Kang Ling'e was pregnant, she didn't dare to let her be bumped in the carriage, so she was left at home. Tan Debao drove another carriage, which carried Zhao, Wu, Tan Guihua and Sizao.

Before the carriage reached the gate of Kang's family, they saw many carriages parked in front of the Kang's family from a distance, and there were people coming and going in front of the gate, which was very lively.

These people should all come to watch the ceremony and give gifts.

Qiduo's family was welcomed into the yard, and before they saw Mrs. Kang, they heard her laughter from afar.

Hearing her laughter, Qiduo's family couldn't help but deepen their smiles. Happiness is contagious.

"Grandpa, grandma, second aunt, third aunt, and little uncle, I'm looking forward to you all coming, please sit in the room." Mrs. Kang saw Qiduo's family, almost ran over to greet them, and greeted them one by one .

It's just that this name made Qiduo and the others sound awkward.

Mrs. Kang followed her grandson's name to Qiduo's family.

Mrs. Xu smiled and said, "Sister Guirong, this title sounds weird to me. It's better to call me Sister Mingxiu."

Mrs. Kang smiled and said in a low voice, "Actually, I'm not used to shouting like this. It seems natural to shout like this, but everyone said it must be shouted like this, so I had no choice but to shout. Come on, let's shout like this today, Let’s change it tomorrow.”

"Okay, okay, everything is up to you, Grandma." Xu also pursed her lips and smiled jokingly.

"Grandma, grandma, poof, good!" Mrs. Kang laughed so hard that all her branches trembled.

Then she introduced other ladies in the yard to Mrs. Xu and the others.

Qiduo's family was Erxia's natal family, and they all came forward to say hello and congratulations, and said some auspicious words, of course, saying that Erxia was blessed to give birth to a boy.

Finally finished greeting everyone, Mrs. Kang took Xu, Qiduo and Liuju to see Erxia.

Erxia was lying on the bed, when she saw Mrs. Xu and the others coming, she asked the little maid to help her up.

Her face was rosy, and she seemed to be recovering well.

"Mother, Ju, Duo, you are all here, come and sit down." Er Xia waved with a smile, her voice was soft and sweet as usual.

"We're all here." Xu smiled and walked over to hold her daughter's hand, her eyes blushing.

She is someone who has experienced it and knows what kind of pain her daughter has gone through.

"By the way, where is the child?" Mrs. Xu hurriedly asked when she didn't see the child in the room.

Mrs. Kang smiled and said, "Don't worry, don't worry, your precious grandson will be here in a while, and I'll let the wet nurse hold her to nurse."

"Ah, why did you invite a wet nurse? Why doesn't the eldest sister breastfeed herself?" Qiduo couldn't help asking curiously.

It seems that after a woman gives birth, she should breastfeed her child as much as possible.

It is not only good for the child to drink breast milk, but also good for the mother, which is conducive to the discharge of lochia.

Especially for some women who have lumps or hyperplasia in their breasts, the lumps inside can be eliminated by breastfeeding.

Liuju hurriedly pulled Qiduo, feeling that this question was inappropriate.

Qiduo thought it was nothing, a very normal sentence.

Mrs. Xu also angered Qiduo, "You child is really courageous, you dare to say anything. Fortunately, you Gui Rong is not an outsider, otherwise, it will make people laugh."

Mrs. Kang smiled, "It's okay, Duo, your eldest sister just gave birth and is very weak. If she is asked to breastfeed the baby again, I'm worried that her health will not be able to bear it, so I specially invited a wet nurse."

Oh, it turned out that I was afraid that the mother would be too tired.

Qiduo's heart warmed, at least Mrs. Kang was sincerely kind to the elder sister.

Yuniang quickly carried the child back.

The child's face was still a little red, and he was sleeping with his eyes closed, breathing evenly, and his body had a faint milk fragrance.

Looking at the chubby and glutinous little nephew in the swaddling baby, Qi Duo felt her heart melt.
On the Kang family side, they were happy to wash their grandson, and something happened to Tan Deyin's family.
