reborn peasant mother

Chapter 81

The township hospital is not far from the supply and marketing cooperative. When Zhong Jipeng arrived after receiving the letter, the fifth son was already wrapped up and lying beside Feng Yujiang. Look.

"Who do you look like? Like me?" Zhong Jipeng stretched out his head and leaned over.

Feng Yujiang didn't answer.Zhong Jipeng looked at it carefully for a while, and said, "I can't tell who this newborn baby looks like."

Feng Yujiang glanced at Zhong Jipeng, and didn't refute him, but this child really followed Feng Yujiang, followed Feng Yujiang so clearly, his appearance was delicate, he didn't look like Zhong Jipeng at all.

After being glanced at by Feng Yujiang, Zhong Jipeng began to find reasons to justify his words.

"Children, looks don't matter. When you grow up, you will definitely follow me. If you follow me, you can do it, but you must not follow your height. Look, you are not as tall as a pimple."

Brushing lumps is a local tool for cleaning pots, also called "scrubbing handles". It is made of sorghum tassels that have been knocked out of grain, and it is only two sticks long.Feng Yujiang was indeed not tall, and looked thin, so she didn't want to be annoyed by being demoted by Zhong Jipeng like this.

She herself doesn't want her child to follow her height.

"Your child has long arms and long legs. It looks like he will grow taller in the future." A nurse came in while speaking, pointed at the baby's red face, and turned to Zhong Jipeng.

"You really don't know how to be considerate. After giving birth, she hasn't even drank her saliva yet!"

There are many local taboos for pregnant women, including that pregnant women cannot drink plain water, and must put something in the water before drinking, otherwise they will fall ill.It was only then that Zhong Jipeng remembered that he came here in a hurry, with both hands empty.He turned around and went out, and came in with a bag of brown sugar after a while.

Feng Yujiang drank the brown sugar water poured by Zhong Jipeng, and lay down on the bed. Zhong Jipeng also sat down beside the hospital bed, staring at the baby, and said to Feng Yujiang:
"Shall I find a donkey cart to use?"

Feng Yujiang said: "Okay, you can go to the field to pull more straw."

Once the baby is born, it can be discharged from the hospital. At that time, no woman needed to be hospitalized after giving birth.The two of them arranged the discharge from the hospital in just a few words.Zhong Jipeng led the donkey cart, which was covered with wheat straw, and took his wife and newborn son home.

It is necessary to have a child and pull straw.You must know that after the puerpera gave birth, her body would not be clean for a while. At that time, there were not so many women's hygiene products, and the common people had no other way. And, if it is winter, it will keep you warm.

But this is June, the dog days.

Blessed children are born in June and don’t have to suffer from the cold. You must know that you have never seen an air conditioner at that time, and the baby’s room did not dare to turn on the stove for fear of gas. It's thick, and you have to freeze it every time you change a diaper.Children born in June will enjoy the blessings. They don't need to be frozen and are easy to play with.

But adults will suffer.There are many rules for confinement. During the dog days, staying in the house is stuffy, and you have to wear long clothes. You are not happy to show your arms and legs. You are not happy to eat cold rice. You must be warm. Falling postpartum wind... It can only be said that the feeling is really not easy to endure.

There are also many rules for pregnant women to eat.In addition to not eating cold rice and drinking water, it also includes not eating "tree heads". Anything that grows on trees is classified as "tree heads"; I like to eat vegetable leaves, but I don’t like to eat green onions, ginger and garlic, and I don’t like to eat boiled oil...

Otherwise, there will be "poor milk" and the milk will be gone.
