The importance of mother-in-law in this family is obvious.
When there is no one available, I have to rely on my mother-in-law as the main person in taking care of the children.
Because besides Gangzi, there are three younger brothers in the family, she can't expect them to come into the house to help take care of the child after she gives birth.
Let's talk about Gangzi...
Also a man.
She had just arrived, so theoretically, she hadn't gotten used to having a man around her yet...
In other words, she and Gangzi had never been together...
Who will take care of the baby after she gives birth? How will she breastfeed?
The only woman in the family is my mother-in-law.
In the book, people from her mother's family only appeared half a year after she gave birth.
They only show up to get some benefits, so you can't rely on them at all.
Thinking of the plot in the book, she didn't want to count on it.
That mother and sister-in-law were just there to cause trouble. All the bad ideas they came up with were to push Xiaofang further away from happiness.
I have triplets in my belly, and I don’t know how I got pregnant.
Look at Gangzi's three younger brothers. They're all different ages. The oldest is 22, the youngest is 16. Triplets haven't been heard of in the past few generations.
As for Xiaofang, there was even less.
Gangzi's three younger brothers are all capable laborers working in the countryside.
Also because the family is poor, the three younger brothers are still unmarried.
If I can help the second son get married, maybe I can get a good helper to help him.
Otherwise, in this era without confinement nannies and childcare nannies, who would take care of the three children she gave birth to?
By then, you might have a herniated disc or something, and your body will be exhausted.
Besides, you need to rest well during the confinement period, especially if you are going to have a third child.
The three babies in my belly are all boys!
But it costs money to marry the second son, to make clothes, and to buy milk powder.
Now she only has one dollar in her pocket!
But there are so many things to do!
Having and raising a baby is still a fixed expense. The baby needs milk after it is born. If there is not enough milk, the baby needs to be fed with milk powder. How can rural people afford it these days!
She doesn't have many skills. She graduated with a degree in pharmaceutical chemistry and spent six years in college. After graduation, the pharmaceutical industry was saturated, so she accidentally changed her career and became a screenwriter.
After much thought, the only option is to submit articles and earn royalties.
Moreover, she is from the 21st century and is good at English.
These are the only specialties I have.
There is absolutely no golden finger and space like other great book-traveling gods.
She is just a pure soul that traveled through the book...
Is this a standalone trial version?
Does subscribing to VIP get more equipment and props?
But she can only figure this out on her own...
Seeing her mother-in-law calling her, she left the room and said, "Mom, I want to eat something sour."
She is clearly pregnant with three boys, so why does it become a pregnancy just because the nagging aunt next door says it's not?
She also let her mother-in-law know that she would be able to hold her grandson soon.
Seeing that she wanted to eat something sour, her mother-in-law kept muttering, "I hope you are really pregnant with a boy. Otherwise, you will have to go back to work in the fields after giving birth!"
Wang Xiaofang married into the family to give them a grandson as compensation.
She ignored her mother-in-law's nagging and said, "Mom, I want to have some sour soup noodles for lunch. Can you buy me a bottle of vinegar?"
The old man is always worried about his grandson.
Just tell her this and she will definitely go there.
Although she may still have some complaints in her heart, she feels that this is something she is doing for her grandson and she is happy about it.
Wang Fang couldn't quite understand why they were so concerned about continuing the family line and having a boy when they were so poor.
But this is the perception of people of this era, and she can't influence it.
Now that she is here, she cannot change everyone's perception.
Fortunately, she was sensible and did not argue with them. Instead, she wanted to mobilize their enthusiasm.
Guihua went out to buy vinegar cursing.
"If you're not pregnant, just wait..."
Even after Guihua walked away, Wang Fang could still hear her voice.
But she chose to ignore it.
She simply rinsed her mouth and washed her face with water outside.
In such a poor family, there is no toothbrush or toothpaste. Everything can only be bought when there is money.
She went into the kitchen.
There is porridge on the stove and pickles on the table, which are salted dried radishes.
It’s not nutritious, but it fills you up.
In rural areas, eggs cost only a few cents each, and eating an egg is a luxury.
I don't know how many months she is pregnant.
She only remembered that the book described the birth of the child in winter, after the Chinese New Year.
I have no idea what day it is today. There's not even a radio at home.
She knew that the captain's family must have one, so she would go out for a walk after dinner and get some more exercise.
When Wang Xiaofang gave birth, she was very weak and basically did not leave the Liu family's yard during the entire pregnancy. I don't know if this was the reason for the heavy bleeding during delivery.
She needs to get out more often.
After drinking the porridge, she went to the fields to see if there were any fresh vegetables and picked some to stir-fry for lunch.
Seeing a ripe cucumber, she picked it, washed it with well water, and ate it raw to supplement some vitamins.
My mother-in-law was out for a long time, it seemed like half a day had passed before she came back with vinegar.
When she came back, she brought two more eggs.
"These are the eggs your fifth aunt gave me. They said they would nourish you."
Wang Fang smiled and said, "Thank you very much, Aunt Fifth."
Guihua was suspicious. What was going on with Wang Xiaofang recently? Why was she smiling today?
She has never smiled since she came to this house and has a sad face every day.
Is there something fishy going on?
Could it be that the baby in your belly isn’t a boy?
