Midwifery Cow Woman
Mrs. Niu, whose name is Niu Chunhua, is from Quliu Village, Qiushui Town. She married into the Yang family at the age of 18. After her marriage, she learned the art of delivering babies from the nanny. In more than 20 years, she has delivered babies to no less than 1,800 people, covering three li and five villages.
It is also a little famous. Unlike other things, the date of giving birth can be predicted in advance. You never know which day the little baby will be anxious to come out to the world. There is still some time before the due date, and it will be fine during the day, but it will start to work at night. This kind of
This is not the case either.
In this business, it is common to get knocked on the door in the middle of the night. The door panels of Yang's house are only one inch thicker than other houses, for fear that they will be beaten by the anxious family members of pregnant women.
Quliu Village is adjacent to Bailangli Village. The Zhao family had told Niu Chunhua early in the morning that Li Cuizhen would give birth in these ten and a half months. She had an idea in advance so that she could make arrangements when the time came.
In the surrounding villages, most people go to Niu Chunhua to give birth to children. You can probably tell which family is doing this and what the conditions are like.
There was a knock on the door in the middle of the night. Without asking, I knew which house the woman was from was giving birth. I got up, put on my clothes, and followed the person who knocked on the door.
Because of the relationship with the neighboring village, Niu Chunhua knew more about Li Cuizhen than the mothers in other families. There were four girls in the Zhao family, and they were all looking forward to giving birth to a son. This birth can be said to be full of expectations.
Li Cuizhen is an advanced mother. Fortunately, this is not her first pregnancy. She has given birth to four children before, so she should have given birth very quickly.
On the way, Niu Chunhua asked Zhao Mingyu and estimated the time. When she entered the Zhao family, she immediately gave Li Cuizhen a preliminary examination and nodded in approval of the Zhao family's preparations.
Zhao Wenying is the oldest and has seen Li Cuizhen give birth twice, so she understands it more or less.
Not long after Niu Chunhua entered the door, she made two bowls of egg water and gave one bowl to Li Cuizhen. To have the strength to give birth, you must eat to cushion your belly. The other bowl was handed to Niu Chunhua. At this time, the person who delivered the baby
It is also very important that she eats well and delivers the baby well and does her best.
It is an unwritten rule to hand a bowl of egg water to the midwife before giving birth. Most people who know etiquette will do this, but the number of eggs can show a slight difference.
There are four poached eggs lying in Niu Chunhua's bowl, which means everything is stable and auspicious.
Judging from this number alone, the Zhao family is quite kind, much better than the family that only put one egg in the bowl and scrawled their way through the past.
Niu Chunhua's initial impression of the Zhao family was very good, at least they were not picky and they couldn't even earn a single hard-earned money from the trip.
The Zhao family has a lot of work and little labor, and their life is very tight. The egg family does not take advantage of a few, so it is not easy to separate four of them.
For this bowl of egg water, even if the midwifery fee paid later was less, Niu Chunhua decided to forget it and not worry about it.
However, what surprised her was yet to come.
The fifth pregnancy, coupled with the fact that nutrition could not keep up and the child was small, Li Cuizhen gave birth very smoothly. She gave birth less than an hour after eating. There were several waves of labor pain in the middle, and she didn't even cry out in pain. She is also a strong person.
.
As soon as the child was born, the man outside the house, Zhao Mingyu, asked eagerly: "Is it a girl or a boy this time?" He had asked this question four times, and every time he was disappointed.
"It's a baby with a handle -" Niu Chunhua wrapped the baby and took it out with a smile.
"Okay, okay, finally Huang Tian has lived up to his good intentions and finally allowed me to have a son." Zhao Mingyu didn't know where he learned the words, so he took the article and took it with trembling hands, looking down at the wrinkles.
Become a baby like old tree bark, hey hey hey silly joy.
To say that he was disliked by others was obviously a happy thing, but his words completely dispelled it.
None of the girls spoke, and the situation was a little awkward for a while.
Niu Chunhua has understood clearly that Zhao Mingyu is a fool and has offended all the girls with just one sentence. Even if you really want to have a son, just think about it more. Why do you say it so bluntly?
Come out and cause trouble for the four girls.
These days are not easy for anyone, and no family has a difficult song to sing. If there are too many sons in the family, they are worried about finding a wife. If there are too many daughters, they feel that they have no one to support the family, and they are looking forward to giving birth to a son to continue the family line.
Niu Chunhua thought that the four girls of the Zhao family were all pretty good, hard-working and sensible, but Zhao Mingyu didn't take them seriously, and the four of them together couldn't catch up with the newborn baby.
Although she looked down upon it a little, it was her business, and outsiders couldn't tell her.
"The baby was born. Both mother and baby are safe, so I won't stay any longer. I don't know who will come to my house." Giving birth to a baby is a big event, and you can't delay it at all. You can't leave for too long, in case there is any danger.
When people find someone, they are anxious to get angry.
"Oh, oh, that's good!" Zhao Mingyu recovered from the surprise of having a baby, knowing that the midwife was going back and asking for money in a tactful way. "Boss, bring me a dollar and give it to your Aunt Niu. Big
I called someone over in the middle of the night. I'm exhausted after working for a long time, so I went back to buy some delicious food to replenish my body."
The polite words were so polite, and the smile on his face was so bright that it pierced his eyes. Lin'er was so happy that he was so happy that he was dizzy and forgot who was in charge of the family.
Zhao Wenying sighed helplessly, glanced into the room, and said awkwardly: "Dad, where do I have money?" Not to mention a dollar, she didn't even have a dime. This is not the case in the team.
As a worker, you can’t make any money throughout the year. At the end of the year, all the food is included. It can be said that your pocket is cleaner than your face.
Zhao Wenying didn't say anything more directly. All the money in the family was in Li Cuizhen's hands, and no one knew where it was. At this moment, Xiaowu had just finished and fell asleep from exhaustion, and no one wanted to call her for this.
Zhao Mingyu's head was still spinning very fast when he was not confused. As soon as Zhao Wenying glanced into the room, he understood what it meant.
But this woman is the head of the family, and the man can't make the decision. He has no money at all. He can't tell the truth. He doesn't want to let it out that he owes money to deliver his son on credit. Niu Chunhua looks down on him, and immediately takes a look at Zhao Wenlan.
Said: "Second brother, then you should advance the money first, and I will give it to you later when I get the money."
Zhao Wenlan had just washed the lunch box and was going to pack two cooked potatoes and bring it for lunch. Her shift was unbreakable and she had to work every day. Her monthly salary covered the expenses of the whole family.
I can't afford to waste a day.
"Dad, have you forgotten? I don't have any pocket money left every month. I bought all the daily necessities for my family. I just used it this month and bought two bundles of noodles. You and the third child yesterday
That’s all for dinner, so I don’t have any money left.”
Okay, the person who takes advantage of the most money in the family has no money, so how do you organize the red envelope?
Zhao Mingyu grinned awkwardly and apologized to Niu Chunhua: "What about that, Aunt Niu, why don't you go back and do your work first, wait for two days and then I'll come and say thank you?" Thank you is a courtesy, but in fact it is
Send money.
Niu Chunhua: "..."
She had a good impression of this family before, but these successive rejections really made her suspect that this was a plan created by the father and daughter together to deprive her of the money for the midwifery.
She has also encountered situations like being a rogue and being careless. Most of them were because her family was not doing well and she had a daughter. She was very careless and didn't want to spend more money. She didn't give it to those who tried to change the law. She knew where she was.
He can't live without people, but he can say that he will let her go first and come to her door to deliver money in a few days, just like what Zhao Mingyu said.
But if you talk in vain, you will spend money in vain. Just wait, if no one comes to your door for ten or twenty days, then the money will be lost.
Niu Chunhua secretly thought that she was unlucky, so she started harvesting them in the middle of the night. She originally hoped that she would be happy about having a baby and earn an extra three melons and two dates, but in the end, she didn't make half a dime.
After staying up for half a night, I was tired and tired. In the end, I had no hair, and no one would be in a good mood if I left it alone. Naturally, my face would not look good.
Niu Chunhua had been smiling all over her face before, but she pulled the elder away in the blink of an eye. She was just about to say: If you don’t have money, just say you don’t have money. Don’t let it get out of hand. Can’t you tell who you think is a fool? Isn’t it just a piece of cake?
Money? Just say a few nice words and treat it as a gift.
The words were on his lips, and just as he was about to rush out, he heard a cold girl's voice saying: "Don't hurry, just wait for two minutes, I will get the money."
