Second sister-in-law is about to give birth

When her fourth uncle and second cousin saw her coming, they didn't have much expression on their faces, and they even looked numb.

"That's it, it won't be born even after one day."

"Then why don't you see a doctor?"

After hearing this, she became anxious for them.

After giving birth for such a long time, I just asked the midwife to come over to see me. If the mother was good, wouldn't it be a dead body and two lives?

Unexpectedly, the fourth uncle said coldly: "I heard from the fortune teller that she is still a girl. She will lose money when she is born. If she doesn't give birth, it will be her fate. She will have to spend money to go to the doctor. Our family

It’s not that you don’t know this situation.”

She didn't expect that her fourth uncle would say such things, and her chest hurt with anger.

"Fourth uncle, it's the same when you have a son or a daughter. By saying this, aren't you going to chill your daughter-in-law and your granddaughters as well?"

Sure enough, after she finished speaking, Fourth Uncle's expression also changed.

Especially when the granddaughters who came back from collecting cow dung heard this, they all kept silent but stared at him with their big eyes.

He seemed to sense something was wrong, and quickly changed his words: "I mean there are already so many girls in the family, and it doesn't mean much to have another one."

Qin Zhiyi was anxious: "What's meaningless? It's a life. Besides, the mother can't give birth to a child, and she won't have the strength after a long time. If she doesn't find a doctor, she and the child in her belly will both die."

Danger."

Seeing that her fourth uncle remained calm, she looked at her second cousin again.

"Second brother, what's inside is your wife and children. If you don't feel sorry for them, what's the point of her being in this family?"

This sentence seemed to touch the heart of the second cousin. He looked at his fourth uncle, but when he saw that his fourth uncle had no reaction, he gritted his teeth and said, "I'll go ask the doctor!"

At this time, the fourth uncle said: "If you go to see a doctor, it will cost you 20 yuan just for a consultation. You have to think carefully."

The second cousin continued to say solemnly: "Twenty coins is just twenty coins. Even if it is twenty taels of silver, I have to invite the doctor over!"

Seeing that her second cousin had really gone to see a doctor, she hurriedly wanted to enter the delivery room, but was stopped by her fourth aunt next to her.

"Ayi, what are you doing in there?"

"I'll go in and see how my sister-in-law is doing."

The fourth aunt frowned and said, "It's very unlucky for women to have children..."

"It's not bad luck for a woman to give birth to a baby, but good luck. Auntie, don't stop me. I'll go in and take a look."

After saying that, she pushed her fourth aunt away, opened the curtain and went in.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw my cousin Guizhi, who was pale and in pain, sitting on a stool.

Because she had been in pain for too long, the sweat on her head soaked her hair, causing it to stick to her scalp. When she saw her, her cousin said with tears in her eyes: "Sister, I'm afraid I won't survive, and the baby won't be born..."

Qin Zhiyi was also worried that she would be discouraged, and after giving birth for so long, she would definitely not have enough energy.

She asked: "Don't worry, second sister-in-law, have you eaten?"

Sister-in-law Guizhi shook her head: "It hurts so much that I can't eat anything."

"How can you have strength if you don't eat?"

She originally wanted to go out and get some food, but turned around and asked the midwife next to her: "What's going on with my sister-in-law?"

The midwife looked embarrassed: "Well, what should I say? When people give birth, the babies in their belly are always head down. It's better for her. The baby in her belly is head up and feet down. It's difficult to handle. Now,

I haven’t been able to get out.”

If your feet are down and your head is up, isn't this a difficult labor?

Maybe someone will die.

"What about now? How is the baby in the belly? Is it red? Has the amniotic water broken?"

The midwife hurriedly said: "Not yet, I guess it will be soon."

"Okay, sister-in-law, please be patient for a while. My second brother has already gone to see the doctor. I will make you a bowl of sugar water while there is still some time. After drinking it, you will have the strength to give birth to the child."

She really couldn't talk about the difficult childbirth, especially in this era of limited medical technology. The only thing she could do was to persuade her second brother to go to the doctor and go to the kitchen to make her a bowl of sugar water.

After coming out of the delivery room, the fourth aunt couldn't help but step forward and ask: "How is it? What did the midwife say?"

She frowned and said, "The midwife said she'll be out soon, but my sister-in-law has been hungry all day and has no energy. I'll make her a bowl of sugar water."

Grandma also came over with a cane at this time and asked her: "How is Guizhi?"

When the fourth aunt saw grandma coming, she rushed her over again: "Mom, what are you doing here? You should never worry about a woman giving birth to a child."

Grandma didn’t want to leave: “I just wanted to see my granddaughter-in-law.”

Seeing that the fourth aunt was unwilling to let her cook something for her sister-in-law, she asked Grandma again: "Grandma, do you still have the brown sugar and red dates I bought for you last time?"

Grandma was stunned and asked her: "What do you want these for?"

She said: "Second sister-in-law was hungry for a day after giving birth. Where did she get the strength to give birth? I want to make her a bowl of brown sugar water. Once she drinks enough, she will have strength."

Ah Nai looked a little unnatural, and said with evasive eyes: "No more, let me drink it all."

Hearing Grandma say this, she didn't ask any more questions, so she asked again: "Is there any sugar? Are there eggs?"

At this time, the fourth aunt said: "I have it in my house. Just wait, I will go look for it for you."

She responded and stood in the yard watching her fourth aunt enter the bedroom and soon took out two eggs and a packet of sugar.

"I usually eat the dolls at home, but there are only two left at home, and I still have sugar and these."

"Okay, two eggs are also hit, and she can't eat dry food. She can only drink watery ones now."

After taking the things, she had already gone into the kitchen to light up the fire and boil eggs in sugar water.

Boil the water over a high fire and it will be ready in a short while.

After boiling, she broke the eggs into a bowl, stirred them up, and poured them into the pot.

Finally, pour in the sugar and stir.

After cooking, put it into a bowl, scoop out another ladle of cold water, and put the bowl in the ladle to freeze.

Even the second sister-in-law couldn't eat the eggs in sugar water that were too hot.

Now she can only use this method to cool down the sugar-watered eggs as quickly as possible.

Fortunately, although the method is crude, it works, and the sugar-watered eggs will be warm after a while.

She carried a bowl of eggs in sugar water and hurried to the bedroom.

Entering the house, the second sister-in-law seemed to be dying.

"Second sister-in-law, the food is here. I have boiled eggs with sugar water for you. You can just take a sip. I tried it and it's not hot."

Guizhi looked at her gratefully and nodded, but she didn't even have the strength to raise her hand.

She brought the bowl to her lips, Guizhi opened her mouth wide and swallowed.

Before he drank much, he shook his head at her and said weakly: "It hurts too much, I can't drink it..."

The fourth aunt said at the door: "Why don't you just give birth to a child? Why are you so pretentious? I'll serve you eggs in sugar water and say you can't drink it!"

"Fourth Aunt, stop talking."

She shouted, and the fourth aunt outside the door snorted and stopped talking to her.

"If you can't drink it, drink more. Even if it's not for yourself, it's for the sake of the child in your belly."

After hearing this, Guizhi grabbed her hand, looked at her with tears in her eyes and asked: "Sister, what should I do if this baby is still a daughter?"

For extra updates, thank you to the two great darlings for the tip.

I am hesitating whether to let Guizhi give birth to a boy or a girl...
