Chapter 204 Children and Grandchildren
Chu Hong slept until 1:30 before waking up. After a simple wash, she rode her bicycle to Lingzhong Village to distribute sanitary belts to the female comrades.
By the way, we would also like to inform the majority of female comrades that underwear should be washed separately, and that they should pay attention to cleanliness and hygiene so that there will be no unspeakable secrets.
Also, from now on, if you don’t want to have children, you can go to the health center to get family planning supplies.
The main reason is that family planning has not yet been popularized, and everyone just has children as soon as they get pregnant.
But there is not much entertainment now, so married men and women are keen on carrying out the great harmony of life movement after they turn off the lights.
Nowadays, families with some extra money like to find wives for their sons, and most of them marry early and have children early.
If you are still unmarried by the age of 25 or 26, it must be because your family is not well off.
However, due to insufficient nutrition and high labor force, it is not easy for married women to get pregnant.
Some things cannot be kept even if you have them.
Even so, it is rare for a family to have only one child. Having two children is not considered too many. Having three children is normal. Only having four or five children can be considered a blessing.
Occasionally, a mother gives birth to six or seven children, but this is quite rare.
To the extent that now, when the eldest daughter gets married and has children, the mother also gives birth to a young child, and the mother and daughter can spend a few days together to recuperate after the baby is born.
Now the Women's Federation has asked the women's directors to start promoting family planning products and instill in everyone the ideas of reasonable childbearing and happy families.
Everyone in Lingzhong Village knows that Chu Hong is a ruthless person.
Previously, Chu Hong instigated Mrs. Wu to beat the man who had abused her. Even though Mr. Wu fought back several times, his wife fought him desperately and finally made him surrender.
Now he is as well-behaved as an old hardworking ox. He goes to work every day and dares not drink after work.
He no longer dared to beat his wife and daughter.
After this incident, the people in Lingzhong Village were frightened when they saw Chu Hong, fearing that if they made her unhappy, she would take the opportunity to instigate their wives to beat their husbands, or to split up the family.
Anyway, everyone cooperates with Chu Hong's work.
It took Chu Hong less than two hours to hold a meeting with the cadres and ask the women who went to work to come back and get sanitary belts. After successfully completing the task, she leisurely rode her bicycle home.
She didn't have to patrol the three villages every day. She could just ride her bike to the three villages every now and then, talk to the aunts and ladies who didn't work and publicize the tasks of the Women's Federation.
If I didn't meet any aunties or sisters-in-law who were free, I would go to the brigade office and sit for a while. At least I had to let the village team leader and party secretary know that I had been there.
Lest they feel like they are just white-collar workers who get paid but do nothing.
Although she only earned five yuan and some ticket subsidies every month as the women's director, the job was easy and she could take the opportunity to avoid going to work.
Therefore, in the short term, she still wants to live like this.
She didn't want to go to the farm because she found herself to be a bit of a germaphobe and didn't want to see the chicken and duck manure.
To put it bluntly, it is mainly because you have the choice and spare money that you can be pretentious.
If the conditions are not met, everything, including mysophobia, can be overcome for the sake of survival.
She returned home and looked at her watch. It was not yet four o'clock.
Going out on such a hot day, even if she was riding a bicycle, she was sweating. She took a shower first as no one was at home.
Now that we have a pressurized well at home, it is very convenient to use water.
There are also two large wooden barrels next to the water pressure well. The water is pumped out in the morning. The water in the barrels has been exposed to the sun for a day and is already a bit warm, making it perfect for bathing.
She washed her hair today, using a large bucket of water. While there was still sunshine, she pressed out another bucket of water to continue drying her hair.
Then she went to her second uncle's house again.
She thought to herself, it’s been almost half a day, so Second Aunt should have given birth by now, right?
The main thing is that in her memory, many aunts in the village gave birth to their second child relatively quickly.
The one who impressed me the most was Sister Hehua, who went to cut grass with a big belly. When her stomach started to hurt, she thought she had a diarrhea, but unexpectedly, she gave birth to a baby.
It takes less than ten minutes in total. The legend goes that giving birth is as fast as laying an egg, and it has been widely circulated.
When I opened the gate, it was quiet inside, with only grandma washing wild celery under the eaves.
Chu Hong thought that she was so quiet because she was afraid that the noise would scare the baby after giving birth.
Seeing that her grandmother's complexion didn't look very good, Chu Hong thought that her second aunt might have given birth to a daughter.
Although grandma loves her three sisters, she must want more grandchildren.
She came close to her grandmother and asked in a low voice: "Grandma, do I have a new cousin or a new cousin?"
Grandma Song curled her lips and said, "She hasn't given birth yet. She's already fallen asleep."
The daughter-in-law made a fuss and called for help even though the baby hadn't been born yet. After waiting for a long time, there was no sign of the baby. The baby was still sleeping soundly and was even snoring.
Of course Grandma Song was unhappy.
After all, it’s not the first time that my daughter-in-law is giving birth, so she should know what it means to have movement.
My water hadn't even broken yet, but my stomach was hurting a little, so I started screaming and crying.
If you waste everyone's time, people will definitely gossip about you.
Chu Hong almost laughed out loud.
She advised her grandmother: "Second Aunt should be careful. She is still pregnant at this age. Maybe she is a little uneasy."
She really didn't think Second Aunt was making a fuss out of nothing.
This concerns the lives of both adults and children, so it is better to be cautious.
When Grandma Song heard her granddaughter's words, her focus immediately shifted: "You should also pay attention to it yourself, in case you don't know it."
Chu Hong thought: If I get pregnant, it means that Gu Ci will have a green grassland on his forehead and they will have to divorce again.
Fortunately, she knew how to make an old lady happy. She put her head on her grandmother's knees and said coquettishly, "Then you will be busy, grandma. After you raise my cousins, you will have to take care of my children again."
"But my children are also your great-grandsons and great-granddaughters. They must be raised by you, grandma, right?"
"Then we will have four generations living under one roof."
When Grandma Song heard her granddaughter's words, she laughed again, and the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes turned into chrysanthemums: "I'll take care of it for you. Just give it to me. I'll take care of as many children as you want."
Even though she would not dislike her eldest daughter-in-law just because she gave birth to three granddaughters.
But the elderly all have old ideas, and they are afraid that there will be no one to take care of them in their old age.
Now things are good. Chu Hong is going to marry a son-in-law to her family. In the future, Xiao Gu and Chu Hong will take care of their eldest son in his old age, and all the children born to their granddaughters will have the surname Song.
It made her happy just thinking about it. She felt that she could live another 20 years, and she would have to raise her great-grandson and great-granddaughter before she could feel at ease.
Chu Hong's smile froze. What does "how many children do you want to have" mean?
She is not a pig.
She just wanted to have a son and a daughter.
If I have two children, even if I am hospitalized in the future, the children can discuss together whether to remove the tube or not?
The point is, she will only give birth to two children, whether they are two sons or two daughters, and she will not have a third child.
