On an early winter night, although the weather was clear and the moon was shining brightly, the temperature was already very low. The charcoal brazier in the room was burning red, so the room was still quite warm.
In the middle of the night, Miss Hong Ying was woken up by Yu Hui: Sister Hong Ying, Sister Hong Ying.
Song Hongying sat up with the lamp on, put on her clothes and asked: What's wrong, Sister Yuhui?
Yu Hui said: I have severe stomach pain, coming and going. Am I going to give birth?
Song Hongying said: The pain comes in waves, how long is the interval?
Yu Hui said: It takes about one pack of cigarettes to experience severe pain.
Song Hongying put on her clothes calmly, and then said: It should be. It's not a big problem, it should take some time.
Yu Hui smiled and said: You are a girl, how can you understand?
Song Hongying said with a smile: Before I came, I went to find some books on this subject and gained some knowledge. Then, she knocked on the door of Liu Yong's room and said: Boss, Sister Yu Hui is going to give birth. Hurry up and get the midwife.
Please come.
Liu Yong got up excitedly, got dressed, lit a lantern and went out.
Song Hongying returned to the room, walked to Yu Hui's bed, and asked: Sister, how do you feel now?
Yu Hui frowned and said: The pain was worse than before.
Song Hongying then woke up Liu Yongniang and Ying's sister-in-law. Liu Yongniang and Ying's sister-in-law hurried to Yu Hui's room.
Sister Ying went to prepare hot water.
Not long after, Liu Yongniang and Sister-in-law Ying came to Yu Hui's bed; then the midwife also came. As soon as she entered the door, she said: "I'll take a look, I'll take a look."
The midwife said: It looks like it will take another hour.
Song Hongying opened the cupboard, took out a package, opened it, and then said: This is the baby's cotton sweater, this is the skirt, this is the quilt, and this is the diaper. He told the midwife one by one.
The midwife glanced at Song Hongying and said with a smile: Ah, this girl looks a bit like someone who has come before, she is quite attentive.
Yu Hui's pain became more and more severe, and the intervals between pains became shorter and shorter.
Liu Yong, who was in the next room, was made restless by the bursts of "Ah yo, ah yo". He felt Yu Hui's pain and discomfort. He was in more pain and discomfort than Yu Hui. Some people say that when a woman gives birth to a child, it is equivalent to
Putting one foot in the coffin and walking around at the gate of hell, it turned out to be true. As long as both adults and children are safe, it is a blessing. No more children, no more children. This will prevent Yu Hui from suffering such a big sin.
The white fish belly has appeared in the east, and a red sun is rising slowly.
Yu Hui's face was covered with sweat, and a strong cry accompanied by a baby's cry of "Wow" relieved everyone's hanging hearts.
Liu Yong also showed joy on his face.
Liu Yong opened the door and came to the door, where he met Song Hongying who came to report.
When Song Hongying saw Liu Yong, he said: Congratulations to my boss, congratulations to my boss, you have added a daughter to your family.
Liu Yong bowed his hands and said: Thank God, thank God.
Because her daughter was born in winter, she named her Dongmei. Liu Yong, a first-time father, couldn't help but be overjoyed. He didn't go to Silk Road for three days in a row and was overjoyed to watch his lovely daughter in the snow and ice at home.
Yu Hui had been sure that she was carrying a son since she became pregnant, but she was a little disappointed when she gave birth to a daughter.
Liu Yongniang was also a little embarrassed in her heart, but Liu Huanzhang was very happy. She still said that good things should not be delayed until they bloom first and bear fruit later.
One day, Liu Yong's mother called Liu Yong to her side. She said: Ah Yong, in my mother's opinion, it is better to hire a wet nurse. In this way, when Ah Hui recovers after the full moon, you can live together. Mom is still waiting.
Holding a grandson.
When Liu Yong heard his mother's words, he was stunned. Then he said: What do you mean by this? You are also here. Which child is not raised by yourself? Although it is hard for a woman to raise children, she is also very happy. What about grandchildren?
Yes, they are not all the same. I can't bear to see Ah Hui suffer so much that day. Besides, we are still so young after all, and it is possible to give you several grandchildren in the future.
Liu Yongniang said: I am thinking about the future of the Liu family, I have the final say on this matter, it is not up to you.
Liu Yong said: You always like to worry blindly. You and the old man take good care of your health and live a long life. That is the greatest comfort for us as juniors.
At this time, a green cloth sedan stopped at the door.
Song Hongying came in and reported, "A guest is here."
Liu Yong and Liu Yongniang came out together.
When I got to the door, I saw a maid coming in carrying large and small bags. It turned out that Mrs. Tan was here.
Liu Yong went up and said: Godmother, you are welcome to come.
Mother Liu Yong went up and said: Oh, my mother-in-law, you are blessed. Please come in quickly, please come in quickly. If you want to come, I won’t send you a letter so that Ah Yong can pick you up.
Mrs. Tan smiled and said: Hey, you are very busy these days. If I don’t come to help, you have to pick me up. Isn’t that just adding more trouble? Hey, I asked Chunmei to come with me and help me pick up my things.
Actually, there is nothing, being a grandma is just for fun, haha.
After entering the main room, maid Chunmei put several bags on the table.
Liu Yongniang smiled and said: You just came and brought so many things.
Mrs. Tan smiled and said: Hey, is it so easy to be a grandma?
Sister-in-law Ying brought out two bowls of sweet tea.
Mrs. Tan said, "I'll drink it later. Let's take a look at my nephew first. Let's take a look at my nephew first."
Mrs. Tan came to the inner room with several people.
Before Liu Yong entered the door, he called out: Ah Hui, godmother is here.
When Yu Hui heard that her godmother was coming, she also sat up and leaned on the bed.
Mrs. Tan walked in with a smile and said: Be careful, grandma is here, grandma is here.
Yu Hui picked up Yin Dong who was lying next to her and said to her daughter: Come on, baby, look at grandma and smile at grandma.
Mrs. Tan said to Liu Yongniang: Ah, the little girl looks exactly like Ah Hui when she was a child. Then she took out a pair of silver 'longevity locks' wrapped in red paper and a silver anklet from her waist.
When Liu Yong saw that all the women in front of him were women, it was not appropriate to be here, so he said: I haven't been to the business for nearly three days. I'm going to take a look. My godmother will have lunch here before leaving.
Everyone said: Go ahead, it has nothing to do with you here.
After Liu Yong went out, he hurried back to the house.
At the entrance of an alley, Liu Yong saw an old lady in ragged clothes, curled up and shivering.
Liu Yong went up and asked: Madam, why are you here in such a cold weather? Where is your home? Where are your children?
The old lady said in a trembling and weak voice: I, I have no home and no children. My hometown is Fengyang, Anhui. My home is hit by disasters every year. I have been out for several years. Kind-hearted young man, it seems that I
I really can't survive. If I can't survive, please find a place to bury me. Don't let wild dogs drag me around.
When Liu Yong heard that the old lady spoke with a foreign accent, he knew that she had come to escape from trouble. Then he reached out and touched the old lady's forehead and felt that it was very hot, so he carried the old lady on his back and left.
