Chapter 239 Sister-in-law Gives Birth to a Daughter
Ye Jishun soon brought good news. Li Chengyi happened to have some free time and could help build three brick houses.
"Tomorrow, ask Daniu to take me to town. I'll help you arrange the materials for building the house."
Zhang Juexia happily agreed, "Thank you so much for troubling you."
Ye Jishun waved his hand and said, "We're family, so we shouldn't have different opinions. Bei Xiu isn't home, so I'll help you wherever I can. Besides, you have a carriage, so I don't have to walk any more."
Wang Guilan echoed, "Your grandfather is bored at home, so if there's any work, just assign him to do it."
Zhang Juexia nodded in response.
"Juexia, Beixiu is not at home these two days. If you don't want to cook, come to my place for dinner."
"Got it, grandma. This way I have an excuse to be lazy."
Li Yiqin came with a big belly. Zhang Juexia patted her belly gently and said, "Sister-in-law, is your due date coming soon?"
"It seems the day is almost here."
"Then you have to be careful. Have you found a midwife?"
"Your eldest brother told them after the New Year."
"That's good."
Wang Guilan found a high chair for Li Yiqin and asked her to sit down. "I can't say anything else, but these grandchildren of mine all know how to love their wives."
Li Yiqin shyly called out, "Milk."
Zhang Juexia smiled and looked at Wang Guilan, "Grandma, it's mainly the power of example. Grandpa knows how to love you, so they will follow suit."
"You kid, you actually learned to tease me."
Li Yiqin also laughed.
Wang Guilan stared at Li Yiqin's belly carefully and said, "Qin'er, based on my experience, I'm afraid your baby will be born in the next two or three days.
Tell your mother later and ask her to be alert when she goes to bed. Also, ask Beishan to invite a midwife tomorrow.
It's just a matter of getting a few more dollars. We're all relieved now that she's here."
"I understand, grandma."
Fortunately, thanks to Wang Guilan's proper arrangements, Li Yiqun was able to start the operation the next night.
Zhang Juexia was busy all day and went to bed early.
When she almost woke up, she heard someone knocking on the door, "Juexia, your sister-in-law is about to give birth, please come and help."
Zhang Juexia quickly put on his clothes and ran out.
Song Yu should have heard the noise as well. She arrived right after Zhang Juexia.
Li Yiqin's tearing screams resounded through the starry sky.
Zhang Juexia felt very nervous when she heard this. She heard the voices of Wang Guilan and Zhao Baofeng in the room, all of which were words of encouragement.
She also wanted to go in and take a look, but Song Yu stopped her, "The experienced elders are all in the house, it would be unnecessary for you to go in.
Let's go to the kitchen and see if we can do something."
The hot water had been boiled in the big pot in the kitchen for a long time, but the fire under the pot was still on, fearing that it might have cooled down.
Zhang Juexia saw chicken soup boiling in another pot, so he heated it up and poured out a bowl, then handed it to Ye Beishan who was waiting anxiously outside the door. "Brother, let your sister-in-law drink this bowl of chicken soup, and she will have the energy to have a baby."
Ye Beishan took the chicken soup and shouted, "Qin'er, I prepared chicken soup for you. Drink it quickly, and you will have the strength to give birth to our baby."
Zhao Baofeng didn't let Ye Beishan into the house. She took the chicken soup and coaxed Li Yiqun to drink it.
An hour later, Zhang Juexia heard the baby crying.
"It's born! It's born! Congratulations! I've never seen such a fat girl in my many years of delivering babies."
When everyone heard that the baby was born, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhang Juexia glanced at everyone in the yard worriedly. No one was unhappy because Li Yiqun gave birth to a girl.
Ye Beishan jumped up happily, "I have a daughter now. When she grows up, someone will buy me wine."
Ye Yunsheng glared at him and said, "That's my granddaughter. She should give me some wine."
Ye Jishun's face was filled with smiles. "Four generations of the Ye family are now living together. That's great, it's really great."
Wang Guilan carried the wrinkled little baby out, let everyone take a look, and then quickly carried it back into the house. "It's still a little cold, I can't leave my precious great-grandson out in the cold."
The midwife received her wages and the reward from the Ye family and returned home happily.
Zhang Juexia and Song Yu went into the room and said a few words to Li Yiqin. Wang Guilan came in and chased them away. "Qin'er just gave birth. Let her rest. We are here. You don't need us. Just do what you need to do."
Zhang Juexia felt that what Wang Guilan said made sense and that the woman in labor really needed rest, so she left with Song Yu.
On the way home, Song Yu sighed, "You really married into a good family. No matter how much money they have, it doesn't matter. This family is so kind and righteous!"
When your sister-in-law gave birth to a daughter, none of them turned their backs on her. Think about me, when they heard I gave birth to a girl, they turned around and left.
I don’t know how I managed to get through that time.”
Zhang Juexia comforted Song Yu, "Those things are in the past, and your life now is not bad!"
"Well, it's really good that Sister Jin and I have left that cannibalistic place.
You don't have to go home. You'll eat alone anyway. It's better to go to the workshop. Aunt Lanxiang should have prepared the meal."
"good."
After having breakfast in the workshop, Zhang Juexia was too lazy to go home, so he stayed in the workshop and watched everyone work.
When the people in the workshop learned that Li Yiqun had given birth to a daughter, they were all happy for her.
Liu Jinhua looked at Zhang Juexia's belly and said, "Beixiu's wife, you have to hurry up too."
Zhang Juexia smiled and said, "Aunt, your family is about to have a good event, you must prepare well!"
"Why? Jinhua is pregnant too?"
"Let you guys talk nonsense and get to work."
"Golden Flower, don't hide any good news from us!"
Liu Jinhua's face was almost twisted into a doughnut with laughter. "My eldest daughter is getting engaged."
"Su Ying is getting engaged. Which family is she getting engaged to?"
"It's Bei Xiu's good brother Liu Wanfeng."
Everyone showed an expression as if they knew what was going on, but they still happily congratulated Liu Jinhua.
"Jinhua, to be honest, Wanfeng is indeed a good young man. I was thinking of introducing my niece to him, but I didn't expect Suying to get there first."
"Let's make it clear first. From now on, Liu Wanfeng will be my son-in-law. You are not allowed to have any ideas about him anymore."
Everyone started laughing again.
Song Yu reminded everyone, "Li Zao has cut out many new styles, we can't delay the work because of talking.
If you don’t deliver by the end of the month, you won’t get any money.”
This was a good reminder, and soon the room became quiet.
Zhang Juexia also tried to make a purse, and Song Yu praised him, "I think you are the most talented person I have ever met."
"Thank you, Master Song, for the compliment."
"Just be poor!"
A scoundrel-looking man poked his head in and asked, "Is Li Zao here?"
