The excitement of the New Year has diluted the gloom of the floods in Mingzhou. The capital is decorated with lights and fireworks.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the mother-in-law came to the palace to congratulate her. Ye Zhenzhen, who was about to give birth, was spared the pain of traveling around by the empress. She stayed in the palace obediently and could not even go back to Jingning to pay homage to her ancestors.
When she returned to her parents' home on the second day of the lunar new year, Ye Zhenzhen was unable to make the trip, but Ye's mother and Ye Pengpeng came to visit her together, and Ye Pengpeng also brought Xiaopeng.
The one-year-old Chubby is only a six-month-old baby. This kid is "growing very well". He has a mouth full of milk and a layer of fat. He is chubby all over. Each joint of his arms and legs looks like lotus joints.
When I saw my favorite doll, I danced with joy, and it really hurt when I hit it on my body.
"This kid is really powerful."
Aunt Cui hugged Little Fatty and never let go. From time to time, she teased him with brightly colored little tigers: "Have you given him a name? Are you still calling him by your nickname?"
Ye Pengpeng looked at her son lovingly and said with a smile: "I haven't chosen a name yet. Duke Jingguo said there is no rush to name the child. It won't be too late to choose the name after he is one year old."
This is also a taboo. Children tend to die before they are one year old. They are afraid that the child will not be able to remember the name and it will appear in the book of life and death of the Lord of Hell, so they will wait until the child is one year old and grow well before choosing a name.
Aunt Cui understood that this was the elders' love for their children, so she nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
She and the child's grandmother entertained the child together, and reminisced about Cui Zhiduan's childhood together, and had a great time chatting.
Ye Pengpeng whispered to her sister from the side: "Sister, when will the baby come out?"
Ye Zhenzhen was half lying on the soft bed, caressing her round belly, and said slowly: "Probably before the Lantern Festival, I don't know the specific date."
Ye Pengpeng opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something but then stopped, with an unnatural look on her face as if she was about to say something but then forcefully changed the subject: "Sister, the white mark on my belly still won't go away. It's too ugly. You
Is there any useful method?"
A flash of understanding flashed in Ye Zhenzhen's eyes, but she still followed her topic and said: "There are still many ways, just give it a try if you have any method, a two-pronged approach, the effect will definitely be better,"
Ye Pengpeng just found a topic at random and started chatting along the topic, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
Cui Zhiduan and his uncle were watching bamboo bears in the rare garden. Ye Dailin had not had the chance to see the bamboo bears at his sister's house because he was studying abroad. Today, after giving a red envelope to his nephew, he finally had the opportunity to be taken by his nephew to play.
The charm of the bamboo bear is endless. Ye Dailin, a half-year-old boy, was quickly captured the hearts of young boys. After returning to Mingxi Garden, he was still unsatisfied. He said with regret: "The literary style of Shu is prosperous. We visited a great scholar there during our study tour. Unfortunately,
At that time, I didn’t know there were such ferocious beasts as bamboo bears, and I didn’t get to see the environment in which bamboo bears live.”
I don't know where I caught the eldest sister's smile. She covered her mouth and laughed. Everyone looked at her inexplicably. Ye Zhenzhen coughed lightly and couldn't help but sigh in her heart. This is at least more than a thousand years old.
Generation gap.
However, Cui Zhiduan understood his mother's thoughts and added with a smile: "My mother said that bamboo bears make a living by being cute all day long. Although they have no natural enemies, they almost wiped themselves out. They have a reputation of falling into the hands of ferocious beasts and should not be called ferocious beasts.
, it’s most appropriate to call it a cute beast.”
Everyone thought of the cute and naive appearance of Bamboo Bear on weekdays, and felt a little bit about these words, but Mother Ye could not accept her daughter's aesthetics: "The Bamboo Bear is so scary. It's not a joke to be slapped down. You
It’s best not to get close.”
Since the bamboo bears moved into the rare garden, Ye Dayong and Ye Mu have only been there once, and they can't understand the so-called cuteness of the bamboo bears. There is no other reason. There was once a villager in Yejia Village who was beaten to death by a blind bear. They had seen the villager with their own eyes.
That miserable look cast a shadow on my heart, and I stayed away from all bears from then on.
Ye Zhenzhen honestly said that, of course, Ye's mother couldn't stay in the uncle's house permanently. As long as she didn't go to the rare garden in front of her, she couldn't control it at other times.
Seeing this, Mother Ye couldn't help but glared at her and said to Aunt Cui: "My mother-in-law, I can't control her anymore. You can help me control her."
Aunt Cui joked: "No, no, I can't control it. Now, she is the most noble in the whole family."
Everyone laughed.
Although Ye Zhenzhen was pregnant, many people came to visit her during the New Year. Except for people with whom she was close, such as Chu Ningyan, Yueniang, Xuanniang and others, Ye Zhenzhen personally received them.
Let Cui Zhiduan come forward to entertain.
In the next few days, Ye Zhenzhen's stomach cramped a few times from time to time, and she thought she was going to give birth, but it turned out to be a false shot, which shocked the whole family to the point of being frightened for the whole New Year.
That day, Ye Zhenzhen had just finished her breakfast and was taking a walk to eat with the support of Yuxiu and Qiu Wu. She suddenly felt throbbing pains in her stomach. This time the pain was more severe than the previous times. Ye Zhenzhen's face was filled with tears.
I was sweating profusely and couldn't help but moan.
Although the previous few times were accidents, Yuxiu and others did not dare to ignore it. They quickly notified Granny Tang to come over and asked the quick-footed Yupan to invite the old lady.
Even though it was urgent, Granny Tang changed her clothes and entered the delivery room according to Mrs. Ning Guo's rules. She waited for a while and realized that Madam was serious about it this time. She quickly ordered the serving maid: "Hurry and get Dr. Yu."
Please come and wait, there is always hot water and food in the kitchen, please bring them over now."
The maids whose names were called went down in an orderly manner and followed the instructions.
Aunt Cui rushed over quickly, with a look of urgency on her face. The one who arrived with her was Dr. Yu. Dr. Yu first felt Ye Zhenzhen's pulse, made a judgment on the situation, and then went out.
Granny Tang checked Ye Zhenzhen's clothes and found that the amniotic fluid had not broken, so she asked the maid to help her walk around. Although Ye Zhenzhen was in unbearable pain, she still gritted her teeth and held on.
The fire in the kitchen was always burning, and food was quickly prepared. Aunt Cui quickly brought it to feed Ye Zhenzhen. Because she had just finished breakfast, Ye Zhenzhen was not hungry, but considering that giving birth to a baby consumes physical strength,
In order to prevent herself from losing strength, she gritted her teeth and ate it.
Ye Zhenzhen was so painful that she was sweating profusely, and her clothes were wet in the cold weather. Seeing her pale face and clenching her teeth to endure, Aunt Cui couldn't bear it. She held her hand and comforted her: "Zhen'er, please relax.
Heart, the second pregnancy is easier than the first. Doctor Yu just checked your pulse and said that your fetal position is correct and the baby will be born soon."
Granny Tang also consoled her: "Yes, madam, don't worry, I am the most experienced. As long as you listen to my instructions, I guarantee you won't have to work hard."
Ye Zhenzhen smiled reluctantly. Although she had already given birth once, she still couldn't help but feel panicked and helpless when she faced the end of childbirth. If only, it would be great if Wei Zhen was here...
