The Sweet Little Fulang - Chapter 177
The pain of giving birth was the hardest and the most painful for Lu Gu, but he was the most patient. After the indescribable pain had passed, it was worth the pain for the first time to hear the cry, especially after seeing Shen Xuanqing.
He leaned against several soft pillows, and after talking to Shen Xuanqing, he closed his eyes and rested. Both Lang Zhong and the midwife explained that he could not lie down and sleep immediately after giving birth. Recuperation is not good in the future.
Seeing that he was tired, Shen Xuanqing didn’t speak again, and placed a towel in the hot water to help him wipe his face.
After a while, Wei Lanxiang brought a basin of hot water and pushed the door in. Seeing that Lu Gu was resting with his eyes closed, he subconsciously eased his steps and said in a low voice, “You go out, I’ll wipe Gu Zi’s body and tell him to be more refreshed.”
Lingjun in the swaddling clothes moved, Shen Xuanqing didn’t cry at a glance before he got up and went out. He closed the door gently, and when he turned around, he saw a basket on the table in the main room. The bamboo basket was the one he picked from the mountain a few days ago. Ten milk nuts.
Ji Qiuyue washed the wooden basin with **** water in the courtyard, and then folded it upside down on the firewood to dry in the sun. These two wooden basins are for production use. After the water stains are dry, they must be put away, so that they can be used by the next generation of children. As soon as she entered the door, she saw Shen Xuanqing take a milk fruit from it, and said with a smile: “Take one and wipe it clean, and you can feed it later.”
She took out the basket and prepared it in advance. Seeing that Shen Xuanqing cares about Lu Gu and the child, it is better for his two biological fathers, Eminem, to feed the milk fruit.
“Yeah.” Shen Xuanqing picked two milk nuts into the kitchen.
Shen Yan was chopping vegetables, and the midwife ate it, but they hadn’t eaten yet, and they were all hungry after giving birth. Later, they wanted to give Lu Gu some light food. When he saw him coming in with milk fruit, he said, “Second brother, There is hot water in the pot, you mix some.”
“Good to know.” Shen Xuanqing carefully washed the two white milk fruits with warm water. The peels were round and smooth, and they were not dirty, but they were eaten for newly born babies, so naturally they were more attentive.
The milk fruit flower can grow into a round cyan fruit the size of a child’s fist after a month, and it will mature in another month. As long as the peel turns white, it can be picked. The milk fruit circle is round, but there is a woman’s milk on it. Lll head-like protrusions, as long as the needle is pierced, the child can **** the white juice inside when sucking, which is no different from human lll milk.
The milk fruit grows in the mountains, no matter what time of year it grows. It is not afraid of the heat or the cold of winter, and it bears a lot of fruit. It usually grows in the clear places by the mountains and rivers. It is not found in the turbid places. There are a few nearby. Everyone in the village knows a stream hidden in the valley. The stream is clear and clean. There are more than a dozen milk fruit trees along the shore. It can be said that it has raised more than five or six people from the nearby villages.
Not only the husband can pick the milk fruit after giving birth to a child, but some women are so weak and so weak that their milk supply is insufficient. , How many babies have to starve to death, even Shen Xuanqing’s grandfather grew up eating milk fruit.
Usually, some wild children in the village go up the mountain just to play in the front mountain. The valleys with milk fruit are far away. People from ten miles and eight townships generally do not bring their children into the mountains. The children’s rules have not grown up. It’s not that a beating can make people feel relieved, even the adults in the family have to be reviled, and they can’t stay in the village if they don’t.
The milk tree bears so much fruit in a year, which is considered a great achievement in the eyes of many people. That mountain stream is not allowed to wash hands, feet or do dirty things like urinating, not to mention tearing branches and killing children. The immoral act will be condemned by God.
Even when they are ripe, no one picks them, and when they are too ripe, they fall to the ground, and some livestock in the mountains eat and peck them. After entering the valley, most people avoid the milk fruit on the ground under the tree, and dare not step on it if it gets dirty. Or pick it up and pile it next to it. After the milk fruit is ripe, as long as it is not soaked in water, it will not be damaged for three months. The same is true if it falls on the ground.
Shen Yan is chopping vegetables. She is a daughter who has not yet left the cabinet. She is not allowed to approach her when she has a child. Now she is busy cooking and hasn’t seen Lu Gu yet. She only knows that she is a twin, so she asks, “Second brother, What’s my nephew’s name?”
Shen Xuanqing raised her head and smiled brightly, and said, “Lingjun, Shen Lingjun.”
Shen Yan smacked her mouth, and her almond eyes curled up: “It sounds so nice.”
“Sister-in-law, take a long needle.” Shen Xuanqing shouted outside after washing the milk fruit. He was a little lost in everything he did today, and he forgot to take a needle when he came here.
Ji Qiuyue quickly brought the needle in. There was fire at the bottom of the stove. He stretched his hand in and ignited the long needle in the flame. Only then did he stab the needle into the head of the nipple. After piercing it thoroughly, he pulled out the needle and squeezed lightly with his hand. As soon as the fruit came out, milky white juice was seen flowing from the head.
“It’s done, that’s it.” Ji Qiuyue said beside him.
Shen Xuanqing smiled and said: “Okay, I guess one is enough to eat, and I will make this at night.”
There was a knock on the door, Wei Lanxiang wiped Lu Gu’s body and helped him cover it up, and then Shen Xuanqing came in.
The baby in the swaddle had his eyes closed, but his mouth was moving, and his head was rubbing. Seeing that he brought milk fruit in, Wei Lanxiang smiled and said, “It just so happens, I think Brother Ling is hungry.”
It was the first time that Lu Gu had given birth to a baby. He had never held such a soft baby before, and he was really tired. Shen Xuanqing was the same. , gently stuff the fruit into the child’s mouth.
Instinctively, after biting the fruit, Xiaoling ate very vigorously, Wei Lanxiang said while feeding: “You have to be careful all the time, when he can’t get it, just squeeze it lightly, remember not to squeeze too hard. Anxious, the child is small, it is not a trivial matter in case of choking.”
Shen Xuanqing stood by and watched, nodding and jotting down her words.
“Mr. Li, are you full? Have some more tea.” Ji Qiuyue’s voice came from outside, and he went out to see it.
Granny Wen wiped her mouth with a handkerchief, smiling until the corners of her eyes folded together: “No, it’s getting late, it’s time to go back.”
That being the case, Lu Gu, who was in Shen Xuanqing’s room, said to Wei Lanxiang, and drove the mule cart to Mrs. Li’s house. When he came back, Lu Gu and the child had already slept after eating a bowl of noodle soup. He was standing on the bed. After watching for a while, he showed a very happy smile when he bent down to help Lu Gu tuck the quilt.
Good boy and Da Hui did not see the doll until the next day. The dogs in the house are smart, while Da Hui and Da Hui are more spiritual.
Shen Xuanqing thought very simply, the little brother was born, so naturally all the dogs in the family had to recognize him, so he called all six dogs into the room. can see.
The dogs in the house were all surrounded by him. Because of his arms, he could only smell the swaddling clothes. Maybe the dog also realized something, didn’t bark, and was quiet.
After recognizing him, he let the dogs go out. The good boy is always sloppy, so he didn’t go out. He kept looking at the baby with his neck raised, Lu Gu half leaned on the bed, smiled and said to it, “This is my younger brother, my name is Ling. All, Brother Ling.”
Lingjun was so young and he was always sleeping. In order not to disturb him, Shen Xuanqing carefully placed him on the bed. Lu Gu had always slept in the bed and would move out during the day, because Wei Lanxiang and Shen were feeding the child. Xuan Qing came over, and Ling Geer slept outside Lu Gu during the day, otherwise it would be inconvenient to hug him.
The good boy screamed twice in his throat. After Shen Xuanqing put down the child, he tentatively took two steps forward. At the end, he tilted his head to look at it, and suddenly made Lu Gu laugh.
“You rest first, I’m going to pick milk fruit, this time I can pick more and come back.” Shen Xuanqing said.
“Okay, pay more attention on the road, don’t be too anxious.” The smile in Lu Gu’s eyebrows is shallow, it is really good-looking.
Shen Xuanqing called the good boy when he left.
There was only a gap in the window to let in air, and the door was closed, so Lu Gu couldn’t see the outside. Fortunately, it was now the end of August and September, and the weather was not as hot as before.
He lay down, looked at the doll beside him, muttered the words “Lingjun” in his heart, and finally smiled with a frown, his heart was really nice.
The newly born doll is not so good-looking yet, and its body is a little wrinkled, but the more he looks at his little brother, the more beautiful he feels, the red marks between the eyebrows are light, but it is very beautiful and beautiful, and when he opens his eyes, his pupils are large and black. , no matter how you look at it, they are all well-behaved and cute little twins.
He was overjoyed, because this was his and Shen Xuanqing’s little twins, their baby.
On the other side, Shen Xuanqing went into the valley alone with a bamboo basket on his back, leaving Good Boy and Da Hui to wait beside the big rock outside the valley.
The gurgling mountain stream is probably the reason for this valley. The streams never dry up and freeze in four seasons. There are two tall milk fruit trees on the bank. He raised his hand to pick the large ripe fruit in the high places.
The milk fruit tree only grows in beautiful mountains and rivers. Some people tried to move it back to the yard to plant it, but no one made it. In the end, all the trees withered away, so no one tried again.
Lu Gu had never been born before. He was afraid that it would not be fresh enough after a long time. He only picked ten fruits as a precaution, and today he can pick some more for the children to eat.
The ripe milk fruit is white and round, like in order not to pierce the mouth of the doll, there is no burr on it, and it is smooth. Some unscrupulous people will make fun of it in secret, but they will never dare to say that in front of people. It is not uncommon for him to be severely beaten when he dares to speak indiscriminately.
Shen Xuanqing carried the bamboo basket in front of him, and put milk fruits one by one into the basket. After it was full, he was satisfied and went down. So many fruits were enough for them to eat for a long time. Putting the bamboo basket back on his back, he walked briskly out of the valley, where Da Hui and Good Boy were waiting for him.
Before Shen Xuanqing came back, Xiao Lingjun ate another milk fruit, which was fed by Lu Gu himself this time. Shen Yan helped wash the milk fruit and poked it open with a needle. She sat by the bed and watched.
“It’s really edible.” She said with a smile, she couldn’t help touching Xiao Lingjun’s hand, her fingers were grabbed all of a sudden, she was so happy that her eyes were almost gone from smiling, she raised her head and said, “Brother Guzi, I Look, Brother Ling is really close to me.”
Lu Gu hugged the child with one hand and the fruit head with the other. Hearing this, he smiled and said, “No, you are his aunt, can you not kiss him?”
Seeing that the child had run out of milk fruit, she took it and said, “Second brother said to pick the milk fruit. We don’t miss that one, or I’ll cook it for you, so I can make up for it.”
“Okay.” Lu Gu nodded in agreement.
Not only children can eat milk fruit, but adults can also, but there are only so many people in the village, which adult dares to go up the mountain to pick milk fruit to eat, and when it is discovered, the whole village has to come to the door to scold, what is not good to eat, and they will take a bite of the child. Life-saving milk to eat.
Therefore, only those who have given birth to a child will not be stared at when they go to pick milk fruits. Adults do not eat the juice inside, but after peeling and dicing the fruit and boiling it, the soup that comes out is also milky white. People and husbands eat well for their health. Sometimes the milk fruit they pick is not enough for children to eat, and they will also feed the boiled soup, which is thinner than the juice in the fruit, but at least it can fill the stomach.
After Shen Yan went out, Lu Gu patted Xiao Ling, who was full, and the newly born baby went to sleep when he was full. In fact, he didn’t need to coax him, and Xiao Lingjun closed his eyes with peace of mind.
The wound under his body had not fully recovered, so he put the child on the bed, and fell down and rested for a while.
He opened his eyes when he heard Zhao’er’s cry outside, and subconsciously raised his hand to coax Xiao Lingjun, who was sleeping, for fear that he would wake up, but the child slept much better than him.
The door was gently pushed open, but it was Xia Fulang.
“Grandma.” Lu Gu retracted his hand and wanted to sit up, when he saw Xiafu Lang gesture to him.
“You sleep with yours, I’ll take out the diaper and wash it.” Xiafulang said softly, and took out the diaper beside the bed.
Yesterday, after Lu Gu gave birth, he came to see it, washed Lu Gu’s clothes and the changed bedding before going home. Shen Xuanqing had already agreed with him that no one else needed to do the laundry for Lu Gu and the child, and then during the day. Take care of Lu Gu getting out of bed and eating and drinking the children.
In the past two days, because Lu Gu just gave birth, the family has not been away from people very much. After waiting for a while, when the autumn harvest arrives, there is too much life in the fields, and others don’t need to worry about eating, but Lu Gu needs someone to take care of him when he is hungry and thirsty. If it is not easy to work, Xiafu Lang must be in front of him.
If you want to get paid, you have to do things. Xia Furang has very quick hands and feet, and Wei Lanxiang has seen the clothes and diapers next to him, and they are all very clean.
There are very few people in the countryside who still ask someone to wait on them while they are confinement. People who are too poor can’t even hire a biological mother. It is destiny to have children. However, the Shen family all knew that Shen Xuanqing was stubborn. He said he wanted to hire someone, but even Wei Lanxiang didn’t say much.
Lu Gu heard Shen Yan and Xia Furang chatting outside. The child was sleeping soundly without worrying about being woken up. He lay down and closed his eyes to rest. Always happy, Shen Xuanqing treated him very well.
