Chapter 510: Kneeling on the Washboard

Seeing the worry on her face, Wen Shi touched her head and said, "Don't be afraid, I'm here to protect you."

"Um."

Yi Chichi nodded and was about to speak when a sour smell suddenly hit him.

“Pull it!”

She was experienced with this smell and sighed when she smelled it, "It hasn't been long since I changed it and it's time to change it again."

I just poop when I'm full.

He resigned himself to his fate and took the basin and thermos to add water. Then, with slightly unfamiliar but gentle movements, he wiped the baby's butt and changed his diaper.

Yi Chichi was pleasantly surprised and said, "Not bad, you learn very quickly!"

Wen Shi said proudly, "That's right, your man is smart, there is nothing I can't learn."

As we were talking, the diaper was changed.

He rewrapped the baby's blanket and placed it next to Yi Chichi.

"Wife, please watch over the baby while I wash the diaper."

"good."

Newborn babies have limited energy and are basically in the stage of eating when hungry, defecating when full, and then continuing to sleep after defecating.

It was quite noisy in the belly, but it was surprisingly easy to take care of after it came out.

Not very fond of crying.

So, after staying in the hospital for three consecutive days, eating well and resting well, with Ji Jian and others taking turns to come and talk to her and help take care of the baby every day, Yi Chichi was allowed to be discharged from the hospital and go home to recuperate.

There were a lot of things during the three days of hospitalization, so Wen Shi called two cars to pick up the mother and child.

Yi Chichi and the baby were wrapped up tightly and didn't even step out of the bed when they got home. They lay on the big bed.

Wen's mother specially changed the quilt, sheets and quilt covers. The smell of soap nuts is fresh and natural, which is much better than the smell in the hospital.

Not only did Yi Chichi feel relieved, but the baby's brows, which seemed to be frowning all the time, also relaxed.

Ji Jian found it interesting and said to Yi Chichi, "It seems that Xiao Yiyi also knows that home is good."

Yi Chichi hummed, "He has a keen sense of smell."

"Sister-in-law, aren't you going to work today?"

"I'll go in the afternoon."

Wen's mother came in with steaming hot water. Ji Jian quickly stood up to help, "What is this hot water for?"

"Apply it to Chi Chi's belly."

Ji Jian had a question mark face, "Why do you need a hot compress?"

"I feel a little uncomfortable."

Yi Chichi replied, looked at the temperature of the water and said, "Mom, the water temperature is too high."

The temperature must be controlled when applying hot compress. Too high a temperature may cause excessive contraction, pain or bleeding.

Wen's mother didn't even raise her head. "I know, it's not ready yet."

Before he finished speaking, Wen Shi came in with a basin of cold water.

Wen's mother quickly mixed the water and then asked Ji Jian to go out and wait.

The task of applying the stomach compress was given to Wen Shi.

Yi Chichi gave birth naturally with an episiotomy, so her belly was actually fine. However, because her belly was too big during pregnancy, the skin that had been torn apart has loosened up now that the baby is gone.

The color is also much darker.

Wen Shi felt distressed when he saw this, "Wife, can your belly be white again?"

"Yes."

Her ointment wasn't made in vain. Besides, "Go down to Grandpa Zhang and get me some medicine."

"What medicine?"

"I'll give you a list later, and you can take it according to the list."

"good."

He twisted the handkerchief and covered her belly with it. Yi Chichi sighed comfortably, feeling so warm and comfortable.

It’s a pity that there is no hot pack, otherwise it would be perfect if it could keep warm.

There's no need to bother with hot compresses.

Because it was so comfortable, she wanted to close her eyes and rest for a while, but she didn't want to fall asleep.

When she woke up again, she heard Lao Li and Wen Shi complaining about the baby's name.

"Back then, you had so many names, and none of them sounded better than Wen Yi. If you didn't know, you would have thought it was the plague."

"Can you speak?"

Wen Shi was so angry that he punched him. "If you can't speak, just shut up, okay? You're calling me a plague! I'll plague you, you big-headed ghost! My last name is Wen, not Wen. Who's a good person who has nothing better to do than give people nicknames all day long?"

"Also, let me remind you that 'Yi' stands for 'everything is as it seems', meaning full of hope. But that's not the point. The point is that this name is also easy to write. When Xiao Yi Yi goes to school, other students will still be struggling with their names, but he will have already written it. Especially during the college entrance examination, it will save a lot of time."

Lao Li: "...If you put it that way, this name is indeed a good one."

It is simple to write, has a good meaning, and is easy to remember.

Comparing his own child's name, he hesitated and said, "Do you think I should change my child's name?"

Lao Lei was drinking tea from his cup when he spat out a mouthful of tea. "How old is your child? You've called him by his name for so many years, and now you want to change it rashly? Have you asked him for his consent?"

What kind of father is this? He is not reliable at all.

If he were a child of Old Li's family, he would definitely fight with him.

Wen Shi nodded in agreement, "Old Lei is right. Don't think you can do anything, or your sister-in-law will punish you by making you kneel on the washboard."

"I'm afraid of her!"

Old Li said this with great confidence, then changed the subject, "I'm going out to sea with Old Tang and the others tomorrow, so I'll leave the housework to you two."

Wen Shi nodded, said a few words in a low voice, and then went into the house.

I guessed that Yi Chizhi was still asleep, but I didn't want to meet her eyes when I came in. I instantly looked guilty, "Did we wake you up?"

"I woke up naturally."

Wen Shi felt relieved, "That's good, are you hungry?"

"fine."

I ate a lot at noon and lay in bed without doing much exercise, so I’m not very hungry now.

"Old Li is going out to sea tomorrow?"

Thinking of their conversation, she asked with concern.

"Well, it was originally my turn to go, but you're in confinement after childbirth, so Lao Li will take my place this time, and I'll take his place next time."

"I have to thank him."

"Thank you. Just rest assured and take care of yourself. You don't need to worry about anything outside."

At this point, he remembered something, "By the way, Wang Nan sent you a telegram."

Yi Chichi's heart skipped a beat; something had happened.

Otherwise Wang Nan would not be willing to send her a telegram.

Telegrams are charged by the number of words, which is many times more expensive than sending a letter.

She quickly asked, "Where's the telegram?"

"Give."

Wen Shi took out an envelope from his pocket and handed it to him, but he hadn't opened it yet, which showed that he didn't know the contents either.

Then the couple gathered together to read the telegram.

After reading it, Yi Chichi urged, "Go and send her some money tomorrow."

This is too unbelievable. How could a healthy child suddenly become seriously ill?

Wen Shi said, "...the remittance is too slow. She and Lao Bai are in the hospital and urgently need the money. I'd better find a comrade to deliver it directly to them."

Saving lives is like putting out a fire, and we cannot delay Wang Nan’s child’s medical treatment.

"good."

Yi Chichi was not worried that she would not return the money. Both the couple were grateful people.

I have paid back all the money I borrowed before and even calculated the interest.

You can't refuse it at all.

As the saying goes, if you borrow, you must return; it will not be difficult to borrow again.

Besides, they were admitted to university, and maintaining a good relationship with them can also be a form of networking, which may be useful in the future.

Wen Shi had the same idea as her.

So, after saying hello to Wen's mother, he went out to make a phone call.

He came back half an hour later to tell Yi Chichi that it was done.

"Have you asked your comrades to help find out what the child's illness is?"
