Chapter 137 Saving Your Life Is Important
There was a strong wind outside the house, making the windows rattle. There was a loud thunderclap, and then the sound of raindrops hitting the glass could be heard. The little guy was so frightened by the noise that he hid in Lin Xia's arms.
The sound of rain hitting the glass made Lin Xia worried whether the glass floor could withstand it.
Water is slowly seeping in from the wooden windows. The only thing you don't have to worry about is that typhoons come and go quickly on the island, so once the weather clears up and the sun gets on, it shouldn't get moldy.
Lin Xia looked at the raging storm outside and felt a little worried about Lu Yuxiu. She didn't know whether they were on the sea or on land.
The little guy covered his head with a thin blanket and huddled beside Lin Xia, with a look of fear on his face. Lin Xia quickly put aside her worries. The most important thing was to take good care of the little guy and herself.
Take the picture book and tell stories to the little ones.
The unhurried voice was as calm and gentle as ever. The little guy was soothed by the voice, and was fascinated by the story and was not so scared anymore.
By noon, it was still raining heavily outside, but the wind was no longer blowing strongly.
Seeing that it was almost time, Lin Xia hurriedly took the child downstairs to get something to eat. She had been getting hungry quickly since she became pregnant. It was raining, and it was not very convenient to light a fire on the earthen stove. The smoke could not be exhausted and would even flow back. Fortunately, there was a coal stove at home.
Burning coal in the stove can cause carbon monoxide poisoning, so while there was no wind, Lin Xia opened the windows for ventilation. She was too lazy to make things complicated, so using a clay pot to make clay pot rice was quick and delicious, and it was also very convenient with both vegetables and meat.
Apply some oil on the bottom of the casserole, put the washed rice in to cook first, Lin Xia goes to prepare to cut some sausages and wash some vegetables, wait until the rice is 70% cooked, then put the bacon on and simmer together, when it is almost done, put the vegetables and eggs in and simmer for a while.
The stewed rice was put aside to cool, and a shrimp and seaweed soup was quickly prepared. There was rice, vegetables and soup. The mother and daughter sat together very contentedly to prepare for the meal.
Pour the sauce prepared by Lin Xia on it, turn it over and mix it.
There is a layer of oil at the bottom of the casserole so it won’t stick to the pot. There is also a layer of browned rice crust. The little ones love to eat it, it’s very crispy.
After the rain, the previous heat subsided and Lin Xia felt much more comfortable.
Ever since she found out she was pregnant, she has become more and more sleepy, and the little one has been infected with her sleepiness. The two of them often sleep in together in the morning. She woke up late this morning, so she is not sleepy even after dinner.
Lin Xia was sitting on the wooden sofa, leaning against a pillow, doing needlework, sewing a diaper for the unborn baby. An An was playing on the slide in the living room by herself, but there was no sand to cushion her, so her little butt suffered a bit.
It was previously placed next to the sandpit in the yard, but as it looked like it was going to be windy, I bothered Brother Wu to move it in.
Not long after Lu Yuxiu started his mission, it was the little one's birthday. That day, Lin Xia made the little one's favorite food and even baked a milky cake for her in the oven. However, it felt like something was missing because there was no cream.
Uncle Wang made a sofa and a slide and drove a tractor from the factory to deliver them. The scene also attracted a lot of onlookers.
The sofa was easy to understand, but the slide looked weird and no one knew what it was used for. It was not until Lin Xia asked someone to put the slide on the sand and instructed the little ones how to play that everyone understood.
A group of people saw this and thought that Lin Xia was really great. She spent a lot of effort to spoil her children. Only those who don't run a household know how expensive oil and salt are. Of course, they said this behind her back, and they were definitely just polite words to her face.
They thought Lin Xia was exaggerating, but the kids were simply crazy. An An suddenly became the happiest child among the kids.
Her mother always made delicious food for her and also made her a big toy. Every day a group of children came to An An eagerly, wanting to play on her slide.
Lin Xia did not interfere in the children's social life and let An An make his own decisions.
The slide was only about 1.2 meters high and was placed in a sand pit. It was surrounded by sand that Lin Xia had asked Lu Yuxiu to drag back, so there was no need to worry about children falling.
When I made it, I was thinking that the little one's birthday was coming up soon, and the little one was introverted. Lin Xia saw that the child didn't have many toys, so she wanted to have something that would allow her to move around and play by herself.
I really didn't expect that it would attract a group of children. Since then, there have been many children in my house.
It was raining and they couldn't go anywhere, so Lin Xia stayed at home with the little one for three days.
Lin Xia was awakened by the sunlight outside the window that morning. She was afraid that the rain would seep in and wet the curtains, so she didn't draw the curtains before sleeping in the past few days. Now, looking at the clear sky outside the window, Lin Xia felt relieved.
I haven’t seen the sun for several days and haven’t gone out. Some of the vegetables have gone bad, and there are not enough fresh vegetables at home.
Lin Xia wanted to go out so badly that she couldn't fall asleep anymore. She didn't want to wake the little one up, so she got up, changed her clothes, and prepared to go downstairs to wash up and cook.
She has been pregnant for more than three months. Her belly is slightly bulging, and it can be seen even when she wears a skirt. During this period, she has not felt anything except being sleepy and hungry. The most gratifying thing is that she has not had morning sickness yet.
Oyster porridge was cooked in a casserole with dried oysters. Lin Xia went to wash up, and then went upstairs to call the little one down.
By the time the two of them had finished cleaning up, the oyster porridge was ready. Carrots and mushrooms were added to the porridge, which was light and nutritious. Dried oysters nourish yin and replenish blood, and were also suitable for her to eat now.
After finishing her meal and clearing away the dishes, Lin Xia opened all the windows in the house to ventilate the house. She also had to tie up the ropes in the yard and dry the quilts and other things in the sun.
When it rains, there is more moisture in the air and everything becomes wet.
"Xiao Xia, are you going to the market?" A familiar voice came from outside the door. It was Yang Hongmei's voice.
When Lin Xia heard her voice, she immediately agreed, "Sister-in-law, wait a minute." She got up and went to the cabinet to get the money and went out.
"Oh, your belly is becoming more and more obvious." Yang Hongmei was surprised when she saw Lin Xia. She hadn't seen Lin Xia for several days since the typhoon came, and when she saw her, she felt that her belly was a little obvious.
Lin Xia smiled and touched her belly but didn't feel anything. She saw it every day and couldn't feel the slightest difference. "Really?"
"Sister-in-law, I'm not going out today. Please bring me some food. Just some fish, shrimp and vegetables. I'll give you money and tickets." It's a sunny day and I'm afraid a lot of people will come out, so don't even think about grabbing the meat.
"Okay, then I'll buy it. You can give me the money and ticket when you come back." Yang Hongmei smiled brightly, understanding that she didn't go out.
When the typhoon came, every household stayed at home with their doors closed. After the typhoon stopped, many people had little food left, and some people went out even when it rained.
But Lin Xia didn't dare go out. The roads were all dirt roads, and the mud was slippery. If she fell normally, it would only hurt a little, or she would just be washing clothes. But if she fell badly, she might lose her life.
