Chapter 137 The fetus is moving
Sang Ning was not feeling well today, so Huo Jingya and Mo Cuiyu went to the shop.
She rested for half a day and felt lighter in the afternoon, so she couldn't sit still.
Thinking that I had not yet made the Fly General that I promised my child, I decided to go to the mountains to get some pine oil to make amber.
"The weather is getting colder." Sang Ning said while looking at the sky.
Yes, the hottest part of summer is over.
Huo Changan pondered the meaning of her sigh.
The family still lacks bedding, enough for several people to share a bed, and clothes...
I asked Xu Wude for these at that time, and also asked for some charcoal for the winter. This person hasn't delivered it yet. What does he want?
"Or..." I went to urge him.
Before Huo Changan finished speaking, he heard Sang Ning say, "If you don't catch the fly, it will be gone..."
"But have the flies in the house ever really eaten shit?"
"Those in the mountains aren't much better, eating animal shit..."
"Hey, why do you like flies?"
"Isn't this just a maggot?"
When we saw the silkworms eating away at the food, we thought they were maggots and hid our heads in fear. But now we like maggots.
After Sang Ning finished complaining, she saw Huo Changan looking at her with a dazed expression.
"What's with that expression on your face? It's you who said you were going to eat shit!"
Now she always thinks about it.
"By the way, can you catch a fly with chopsticks?"
Chopsticks... to catch flies?
What kind of strange words are these?
Huo Changan didn't quite understand, but he knew Sang Ning needed flies, so he nodded slowly.
Sang Ning thought about it and decided that he couldn’t use chopsticks because they were too dirty.
"You better use two branches to catch them. Catch me three. I'll get some turpentine first."
Sang Ning called Xie Yurou and asked her to go out and relax together.
So, throughout the afternoon, someone used a little bread crumbs to lure and catch live flies.
Pine trees produce a oil called pine oil or rosin.
Summer is the time when oil production is highest.
If you cut the bark at the base of a pine tree, the pine oil will slowly flow out.
Pine oil can be antibacterial and anti-inflammatory, reduce swelling and relieve pain. It is also used in soap making and has powerful cleaning ability.
The rosin extracted from it can be used in papermaking to increase the water resistance of paper and prevent ink penetration. It is also added to ink to enhance the adhesion of ink to paper.
This is also the reason why many scholars and students always have a pine scent on them.
In addition, it has many other uses, such as adhesives, rubber, construction industry, etc.
To make amber, rosin extracted from oil is also used.
Sang Ning found a few old pine trees with plenty of oil, cut off a piece of bark, and asked Xie Yurou to collect it with a bowl.
She herself was looking for the solidified glue on the tree trunk.
The dry glue is also the solidified pine oil that has flowed out. Heat it to melt it, remove impurities, put a wick on it, and wait for it to solidify again to make a rosin candle.
No need to buy candles anymore.
Xie Yurou's attention was diverted, and Sang Ning kept talking to her, so she didn't look at any particular place for a long time.
But she had realized something.
On this day, first her sister-in-law kept talking to her, and then Sang Ning called her to come to the mountains.
Maybe they had noticed that something was wrong with her.
Xie Yurou could only resist the urge to look around too frequently and pretend to be concentrating on her work so that no one would notice that something was wrong with her.
However, in the end, Sang Ning still found out.
Wherever she looked, Sang Ning would block her way.
Until her last attempt to block, the branch behind her scratched "Huo Sanlang"'s face, and Xie Yurou finally could no longer disguise herself.
"Sister-in-law, get out of the way!" she screamed.
"Third sister-in-law, there's no one here."
"Yes, he was behind you and you hurt him!"
Sanning: "..."
Although she knew it was Xie Yurou's hallucination, she was still shocked.
The temperature in the forest was originally lower than outside, and Xie Yurou looked behind her nervously.
It still made her hair stand on end.
After Xie Yurou shouted, she knew that she was completely exposed. She didn't care about anything else and her eyes were filled with tears.
"Sister-in-law, can you please just leave him alone? I don't care if he's a human or a ghost, he's still my husband. If you're scared, I'll move out and build a shed to live in, okay?"
When he said this, "Huo Sanlang" looked at her sadly and affectionately, which made her heart ache even more.
Sang Ning wanted to hit the "person" behind him with a machete and smash him to pieces.
But he didn't dare to irritate Xie Yurou.
I could only explain slowly: "Third sister-in-law, he is not the ghost of Third Brother. He is just an illusion created in your mind. It is fake."
"So what if it's fake? He can stay with me! With our child!"
What's wrong with living like this for the rest of your life?
Seeing Xie Yurou's increasingly unstable mood, Sang Ning's voice became softer: "Third sister-in-law, if it has always been like this, it's fine. I also hope that you have a spiritual sustenance, but it's not like this.
Over time, your brain will become completely diseased and you will no longer be able to distinguish between illusions and reality.
You will become a lunatic in other people's eyes.
When the child is born, you won’t recognize him and won’t be able to take care of him.
He no longer has a father. Do you want him to be deprived of his mother's love?
If Third Brother really knew about this, would he be happy?
Xie Yurou was stunned.
She couldn't help but touch her belly and look behind Sang Ning.
The man looked even sadder, his eyes filled with tears, as if begging her not to abandon him.
The wounds on his body began to bleed again.
Xie Yurou felt as if she was pierced by thousands of arrows, and she wished she could take the pain for him!
"No, I don't want to leave him, no..."
"Okay, okay, I won't leave. Don't be nervous, relax... relax..."
Sang Ning didn't expect that Xie Yurou's condition would become so serious in such a short time, or perhaps her relationship with Huo Sanlang was too deep.
She didn't dare to stimulate it anymore and could only take it slowly.
Suddenly, Xie Yurou's body stiffened and her eyes widened instantly.
"Third sister-in-law, what's wrong?" Sang Ning hurried forward to support her.
"He moved... He moved."
My belly is heaving and I can feel the real fetal movement.
They are connected by blood and share the same heartbeat.
He is more touching than the imaginary "Huo Sanlang"!
At this moment, Xie Yurou completely forgot everything else.
The radiance of maternal love appeared on her face.
Maybe it was because I walked too much, or the stimulation just now, that the little thing in my belly stopped being lazy and started exercising.
Xie Yurou's mind also became much clearer.
Looking behind Sang Ning, "Huo Sanlang" was crying even faster and stretched out his hand towards her, as if he sensed that she was about to leave.
But Xie Yurou took a step back.
"I'm sorry, but you're not him after all."
Her Sanlang is not so weak that he wouldn't say a word even if his bones were broken. How could he shed tears?
Her Sanlang would only play the victim in front of her when he was slightly injured or in pain, but when he was seriously injured, he would never let her know and would act as if nothing had happened.
This is not him.
It was just the "weak Saburo" that my weak self imagined.
This is blasphemy against him.
…
Sang Ning breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but reach out and touch Xie Yurou's belly.
Good boy, it’s time to move.
Mother and child are connected by heart!
He came to repay a favor.
I was happily feeling the wonder of fetal movement when I suddenly heard a sound in my ears.
Then, a stab in the neck.
Sang Ning was shocked and pale with horror.
“Ah—ah—”
