Chapter 92: Confinement

After finishing this tasteless lunch, Tang Yue went to her parents-in-law's room to check on the child, then returned to her room to continue working.

Tang Yue spent the past month working in the space every day, except for the first few days when her mother-in-law asked her if she had any milk. After she knew she had no milk, the food she cooked became less normal and she often sighed at the kids, "Your mother is so unlucky that she doesn't have any milk for you. My dear babies are so pitiful." Apart from that, she didn't say anything else.

Then I found out from behind that the baby was very strong, so I diverted our attention. At first, grandpa was playing with the second child. I liked this baby who looked like me the most. While playing, the baby slapped me. I thought the child was so weak that I could just slap him, but who knew that it would hurt so much that I was really scared.

Then my father-in-law seemed to know something strange and told my mother-in-law and Zhao Shengrui about it. Only then did they slowly discover that the other kids were very strong. My mother-in-law said at the time, "I was wondering why the babies suddenly cry sometimes. They usually cry a lot. It must be that the babies were too close to each other and one of the brothers accidentally hurt them. With such a strong force, it would hurt the adults, let alone the children."

Later, they bought an extra bed in the mother-in-law's room so that they could sleep a little further apart and avoid hitting each other. My father-in-law and Zhao Shengrui knew that the children had inherited their mother's great strength, and they were so happy that they kept saying that there would be successors.

Tang Yue felt that her father-in-law and Zhao Shengrui were a little too happy too early. According to her observation, the eldest child had a tendency to have facial paralysis at such a young age, and she didn't know who she looked like. The second child loved to laugh the most. Can you imagine a smaller version of her father-in-law smiling all day long? It was scary every time she saw it. The third child would respond to anyone who teased her, although she didn't know what she was saying, but she looked like a chatterbox. The eldest child was a girl, and she was so quiet at such a young age. She would be in a daze all day except when she went to bed, and seldom made any noise.

No matter how I look at it, I can't see any of them having the talent to be a soldier. But it's still early now. Maybe they will be interested when they grow up.

This month, Tang Yue killed all the pigs in the space, leaving only those for breeding. She did not touch the cows, allowing them to reproduce more, as there were too few of them. She also killed the sheep, leaving only about 20. She didn't know how much wool and sheepskin she could collect. She kept two males of each kind of chicken, duck, and goose, and killed all the other males. She also killed the females that were too old, leaving only a few that were still very tender. She spent a whole month killing them in there, and it felt like her eyes were about to turn red.

What made Tang Yue happy the most was that pine nuts and chestnuts could be harvested, so she didn't have to worry about them anymore. She could eat them in the Northeast, and she also harvested a lot of honey. It seemed like she had been harvesting it but rarely used it, but now she had a lot stored.

The moon is about to end, and Tang Yue is going to find an excuse to go to the space, and then take a ewe out of the space. She feels that the milk of a ewe should be more nutritious, especially the sheep that eat the grass grown in the space. The milk of one sheep should be enough for them to drink for three months.

Tang Yue was very excited every day. She could finally leave the confinement period and take a bath. Although she had space, she dared not take a bath. Confinement in the hot summer would naturally have a smell. What if she took a bath and the smell disappeared? Would it be exposed? She had been holding it in for a whole month.

Mother Zhao looked at her daughter-in-law, who looked like she had just been released from prison, and smiled happily. "I've brought the water to the bathroom for you, just take your clothes and go wash them."

Tang Yue knew that this bathroom was built by her father-in-law when she was in confinement after giving birth, and it was more convenient to take a bath this way, and it wouldn't get in the way in the backyard.

I picked up my clothes and a bar of soap and ran to the bathroom. I took out the unscented shower gel from the space and rubbed myself clean. Grandma even offered me some water. When I felt that I was finally clean, I put on my clothes and came out.

After taking a shower, Tang Yue was about to wash her clothes, but her mother-in-law told her not to do so, saying that she should rest for a while and wait until her bones healed before returning to work.

Tang Yue did not argue with her mother-in-law. She just did what she said. She went to her mother-in-law's room to check on the baby. The baby was a month older and more lively. The only bad thing about him was that he was too strong and often broke things.

When the baby was young, he often liked to pull his clothes. Then he couldn't control his strength and often tore things, which gave the family a headache and made them cry and laugh.

Although the babies had always slept with their grandmother and grandfather, every time Tang Yue came to their side, they would always notice her and look towards her immediately. Perhaps it was the legendary mother-child bond.

We don't know why Grandma has been feeding us the spiritual water. Now we can't tell at all that when we were born, we were very small, just like a single-born baby, and we are very healthy. Those who often come to see the baby and want to share in the blessing always praise grandma for her ability and good care of children every time they see the baby.

My mother-in-law would always smile from ear to ear, which was a sign of recognition from others, unlike Tang Yue who always kept her achievements and fame to herself, saying, "I just smile and don't talk."

The babies were all awake by now, and would cry and make a fuss. Tang Yue was playing with herself. She teased the babies, and they would feel strange sleeping with her after sleeping with her for a month.

Tang Yue wanted to take the baby to her own room. Her parents-in-law were willing to do so, and Tang Yue agreed. It didn't matter who took care of the baby, but it was even better to have someone to help her take care of the baby. It would be so comfortable that she wouldn't have to wake up at night and could sleep until dawn.

"Mom, I want to go out for a walk. I've never been outside before and it's killing me," Tang Yue said coquettishly to her mother-in-law after she saw her mother-in-law come in after washing clothes.

Zhao's mother likes her daughter-in-law to act coquettishly with her, like she is her own daughter, and to be close to her. "You can go out to play, but you can't go to the beach. The wind at the beach is icy cold right now. You just came out of confinement and you can't feel the wind. Wait for another month before going."

Tang Yue was very disappointed when she heard that it would take another month to go to the beach. It was too hard to buy a boat and go to the sea. She also knew that her mother-in-law was doing it for her own good, so she agreed, "Mom, I just want to go in and see if I can buy a lactating ewe. I heard that goat milk is very nutritious, and it should be better for the baby if combined with milk powder."

"Okay, we really need to buy a sheep. It's time for lunch now. You can go after breakfast tomorrow morning so that you can be back in the evening. If you go now, you will be back in the evening because it's too unsafe outside." When Zhao's mother heard that they wanted to buy a sheep, she agreed. After all, the family really needed it.
