Neither of them took action, so Wang Manyin could only do it himself, stuffing the steamed buns and kuaizi into their hands.
Hu Delu's cooking skills are pretty good. These two dishes should be at the level of intermediate skills. It would be unethical to leave the fragrant meat stewed with cabbage and eggs without eating them. He is not coveting the person in the bed next door.
"You eat, Shaoan. None of us knows how big your appetite is. Mom, you eat too. Eat more."
There were a lot of people in the hospital, and it wasn't nice to fight over them. After they were let go, the three of them finished the food quickly.
"Okay, Shaoan, you can go back. As long as your mother is here, you are the production team leader and you have to arrange work for the members tomorrow."
"Mom~"
"Shaoan, please go back. Your sister is having a baby. Your brother-in-law and I are enough."
"Don't you worry about me? After Lanhua gives birth to the child, I will be responsible for sending mom back."
Fortunately it wasn't two years ago, otherwise Wang Manyin wouldn't be able to reassure Sun Shaoan even if he patted his chest.
Wang Manyin was responsible for sending Sun Shaoan out of the hospital. No wonder the two of them arrived so quickly. Shaoan borrowed a bicycle and rode there.
Most farmers are still relatively frugal and will not be hospitalized if they can go home for treatment.
There are still empty beds in the ward, and Wang Manyin has his own bed, which is just enough for Lan Hua's mother to take a rest first.
It was around ten o'clock before Lanhua was pushed into the delivery room. In almost two hours, she gave birth to a boy weighing six pounds.
"System, sign in!"
"Congratulations to the host for receiving: one dollar in cash and a can of milk powder."
The third child was a little bit tricked by Wang Manyin. He was born at 12 o'clock in the morning and it was a new day. No wonder Wang Manyin didn't sign in for milk powder yesterday and was not prepared at all.
When Wang Manyin's previous three children were born, they all signed up for milk powder, and thought it wasn't working this time.
Although it was quite busy, after returning to the ward, Lanhua's mother and Wang Manyin were replaced, and I slept intermittently for a few hours at night.
Lanhua's mother is a little sleepy, but Wang Manyin sleeps four or five hours a day, which is enough, and she is in good spirits.
The three of them ate millet porridge in the morning, and Lan Hua knew from her figure that she would not be short of food for her children.
However, milk powder and malted milk will not be wasted. The baby is hungry too often. When Orchid is resting, milk powder can avoid being disturbed.
The birth of Orchid went smoothly, and there was no need to stay in the hospital any longer. When it was approaching noon and it started to get warm outside, Wang Manyin took Orchid and the child back to Gu Guan Village with Orchid's mother.
After I got settled at home, I found a red cloth strip and hung it at the door.
The custom here in northern Shaanxi is that red cloth strips or bunches of thorns are hung at the door of the house of a pregnant woman, and outsiders are not allowed to enter at will.
Even if relatives and friends come to visit, a small pile of firewood should be lit outside the gate, and people must step over the fire to avoid the evil and filth brought by outsiders from invading the weak baby or mother.
Some good customs have a certain reason in them. The resistance of pregnant women and babies is relatively weak, so reducing visits can reduce germs and bacteria.
Also, during the confinement period, mothers are not allowed to enter the kitchen, go to the well, enter other people's homes, or return to their parents' home.
It is impossible to live in Wang Manyin's house without entering the kitchen, but it is still possible not to cook.
It was almost noon, and Wang Manyin made three bowls of noodles.
"Mom, the child is asleep now. It will take a while to wake up. Let me send you back so that you can pick up the cat and dog eggs." After dinner, Wang Manyin said.
"Lanhua is in confinement, can you take care of her alone?"
"Okay, no problem. I haven't gone to work recently, so I just stay at home to take care of my confinement."
Even if it doesn't work, it has to work. The Sun family cannot lack Mother Lanhua. Only Wang Manyin is the most suitable person to serve the confinement. Wang Manyin also has an honest reason to fish.
After a baby is born in northern Shaanxi, the son-in-law must first go to the mother-in-law's house to announce the good news. He says "big joy" when a boy is born, and "little joy" when a girl is born.
The mother-in-law's family must hand over the food and clothing prepared for the mother and baby to her son-in-law to take back. Some elderly people will immediately accompany their sons-in-law to visit their daughters and grandchildren.
Although Lanhua's mother was with her in the hospital, Wang Manyin still had to go to Sun's house when it was time to announce the good news.
When I arrived at Sun's house, during lunch time, the Sun family was quite full. Sun Yuhou, the old man, was old and did not go to the infrastructure construction site.
Because Xiulian was pregnant, she could only do some relatively easy work in the village, so Shaoan stayed in the village.
This time, the first team from Shuangshui Village went to the infrastructure construction site, led by deputy captain Tian Vice-Gao.
As for Sun Shaoping, after becoming a teacher, he naturally would not leave home. He did not dislike being a rural person. He had to wear a uniform in the village, which seemed more exaggerated than that of village cadres.
After Wang Manyin reported the good news, he picked up Mao Dan and Gou Dan. He didn't stay at Sun's house for long. Only Lan Hua and his third son were at home. He wanted to go back as soon as possible. It was necessary to say something. The Sun family was in such a difficult situation, so it was better to prepare for their little grandson.
A set of clothes.
Some of the Sun family have to go to work, some go to school, and they will see the children at another time.
Even if there is a lack of rain in northern Shaanxi, spring will start soon and it will still rain lightly.
It depends on the weather. If it doesn’t rain, crops won’t be planted.
The better. If the weather is bad, I won't go out to work in the mountains and come back to see the orchids and children.
"Dad, my name is Mao Dan and my brother is Gou Dan. What is the younger brother's name?" Mao Dan started to ask when he saw his infant third child when he got home.
"I have already thought about calling your dad Dandan."
"Dad, my little brother is so ugly."
Children really can't lie and tell the truth.
"When children are young, they always look like this. After a while, they open up and become beautiful. Ask your sister, it was the same when you were a child."
…
After Wang Manyin took leave from the production team, he devoted himself to serving Lanhua at home during the confinement period.
Of course, there were many things that made Wang Manyin miss diapers so much.
Everything else is fine. Orchid recovered very quickly. For such a small child, there is no shortage of food. He has neither pooped nor peed and will not fuss.
When he wasn't going out, Wang Manyin would look through the books he had bought at home.
Not only Wang Manyin was reading alone, Lan Hua, Mao Dan, and Gou Dan were also fascinated by the novel.
Orchid has learned most of the commonly used words. Now Wang Manyin has started to bring back some expired newspapers from the brigade headquarters, so that Orchid can start reading newspapers and learn about the outside world.
In addition, you can now listen to the radio in Jar Village, so staying at home is not boring.
Wang Manyin still goes out every day, and usually the time away from home is not too long.
"Manyin, the infrastructure construction site will be completed in two days. Lanhua is currently in confinement. Do you still need to build your cave dwelling now?"
"Fix it, don't delay, Brother Mancang, help me find a few more people, and try to fix it in one day."
