Chapter 90 Return Home

Both children were placed on the empty bed next to Li Ruolan. Deng Minghao, Zhou Shengnan and Zheng Fanghua were busy helping the two children change their diapers.

Li Ruolan turned her head and looked out the window. It was already daybreak. The family in the opposite bed were gone, but their things were still there. They probably went to the delivery room.

"What's wrong? Did the two children get diarrhea?" Li Ruolan saw that the three people were blocking the way tightly and didn't know what happened to the children, so she asked.

Deng Minghao looked back at Li Ruolan and said, "Yes, I'll change it right away."

As she spoke, Zheng Fanghua had already changed Ningning's diaper and quickly wrapped her in a swaddle.

"It wasn't long after I had fed them and they had just slept for about half an hour when the two children started crying. Then I looked at them and realized they had defecated."

Li Ruolan nodded, then asked Zheng Fanghua to bring Ningning over and put her in her arms.

The child's skin is still red, but his eyes are open. He has very standard double eyelids, and his eyes look quite big.

The doctor came over just in time to check on the children. He took a look at the two children and then helped Li Ruolan press her belly.

"If you don't have milk now, let the two children suck more. This will help your milk production. I think your milk will come in two or three days." After the doctor said this, he helped Li Ruolan disinfect the area before leaving.

After the doctor left, Zhou Shengnan went to the cafeteria to get food, while Deng Minghao and Zheng Fanghua stayed in the ward to look after Li Ruolan and the child.

After breakfast, Deng Minghao began to pack up and prepare to go home when Uncle Wang came.

Uncle Wang arrived almost after noon. Deng Minghao treated him to two big meat buns and asked him to park the carriage outside the hospital. They packed up and prepared to leave.

Zhou Shengnan and Zheng Fanghua wrapped the baby in a small blanket, and each of them held the baby tightly and got into the car first.

A thick mattress had been laid on the carriage. Deng Minghao then wrapped Li Ruolan, who was dressed warmly and wearing a hat, in a thick quilt and carried her to the carriage.

Li Ruolan had probably just walked a few steps out of the ward when she heard a noisy sound, as if a baby was having difficulty in giving birth.

The girl was too delicate. She refused to walk around even though she had a stomachache. She was carried around by her family members twice before she sat on the ground and refused to get up.

She's still lying in bed and screaming. She's definitely not going to be able to give birth like this.

Caesarean sections were also possible in the 1970s, but that was the end of the decade and it is only 1972 now. I don’t know if this small hospital in this town can help people perform Caesarean sections.

If not, the girl would be in great danger.

At this time, Li Ruolan felt that they made the right decision. If they had stayed in the hospital, they might have been involved in some trouble.

Wrapped tightly, Li Ruolan returned to her home safely without being affected by the wind at all.

At home, there had been no fire for the past two days, so the house was still very cold. As soon as Deng Minghao and the others came back, they quickly lit a fire, and it became warm in a short while.

When Qin Wan knew that Li Ruolan had returned, she immediately brought Lu Yunxiao to see how Li Ruolan and the child were doing.

Qin Wan was stunned when she saw Li Ruolan.

Before giving birth, Li Ruolan had a healthy complexion, white with a rosy glow. Now, after giving birth, her face and lips are pale, and she looks haggard, obviously from excessive blood loss.

"You need to nourish yourself well. I can tell from your appearance that your qi and blood are too weak." Qin Wan said, and then took out two ginsengs from her arms. They were not very big, about the thickness of a thumb.

"It's not suitable for you to take too much tonic now. You have to take it slowly. When you feel better, you can slice these two ginsengs and make chicken soup.

I think you will be able to recover your vitality after a while. It is very uncomfortable for a woman to be deficient in energy and blood, so you must rest well. " Qin Wan said worriedly.

Li Ruolan nodded: "You know medical skills, we will definitely listen to you."

Zhou Shengnan and Zheng Fanghua stayed in the hospital taking care of Li Ruolan and the child for a whole day and night without closing their eyes, so Deng Minghao quickly asked them to go back and rest.

As soon as the two of them left, Qin Wan climbed onto the kang to take a look at the child, then asked Li Ruolan, "Does it hurt to give birth?"

Although Qin Wan had fought zombies and bled and suffered serious injuries in the apocalypse before traveling through time, this was her first time giving birth to a child.

It is said that the pain of childbirth is like breaking ten ribs at the same time, but Qin Wan seemed to have never suffered such a serious injury.

Li Ruolan thought for a moment and said, "At first my stomach didn't hurt much, but my waist and back ached. Then after my water broke, I started to feel pain.

But at that time, I felt more like I listened to the doctor and kept pushing harder. It might also be because of the pain and numbness. Anyway, I didn’t feel any pain at that time.”

As an experienced person, Li Ruolan discussed a lot of things with Qin Wan. While they were talking, Aunt Guihua, Aunt Cuihua, and Aunt Wang Er all came.

Aunt Wang also brought her daughter Wang Xiaoni with her, saying that she would start helping out today.

When the three aunts came in, they were stunned for a moment when they saw Qin Wan, and then Aunt Guihua slapped her thigh and said, "How could I forget such an important thing?"

Seeing Li Ruolan and Qin Wan staring at her in confusion, Aunt Guihua explained, "It's just a custom. Pregnant women who gave birth in the same year cannot see their babies during the confinement period.

If you look at it, the baby may not want to come out even after it is full-term.”

Li Ruolan and Qin Wan really had no idea what this custom was, but since they had already seen it, they didn't care about it anymore.

Three aunts came over to look at the two children and gave each of them a gift of fifty cents, which was not too little.

The three aunts who were passing by told Li Ruolan and Qin Wan, the two couples, a lot about how to raise children.

This includes a series of things like changing clothes and diapers, feeding, as well as how to take care of the baby during the confinement period and not being able to take a bath.

Wang Xiaoni is 14 years old now after the Chinese New Year, and she was listening carefully at the side. She would be helping Li Ruolan take care of the children next, so she had to learn a bit.

Li Ruolan and Deng Minghao had both met Wang Xiaoni and knew that she was an honest and hardworking person, so they were quite satisfied with her.

They didn't stay for too long. Seeing that Li Ruolan and the children wanted to sleep, they left.

"Let Xiao Ni go back today and come back to help tomorrow. We'll start calculating her salary from tomorrow." Deng Minghao pulled Aunt Wang aside and told her about this.

"Okay, let's start from tomorrow." Aunt Wang nodded and took Wang Xiaoni away.

After Qin Wan and the others left, Deng Minghao locked the door, and then he and Li Ruolan and the two children entered the space.
