Chapter 49 Dare to urge the birth of a second child? !

Wang Ziru was stunned for a few seconds. The skillful young wife in front of her was none other than the fourth daughter-in-law of the Luo family in the village.

There was no interaction between them, just nodding acquaintances.

Zhao Junxia smiled on her dark face. Seeing that Wang Ziru didn't say anything, she tried to test him, "My mother-in-law said that if you, Ziru, could deliver a baby, I would come to ask you when I have an attack in a few days."

"Ask me to deliver your baby? Is that what your mother-in-law wants?" Wang Ziru was hesitant when she heard that. She asked Zhao Junxia, ​​"Have you prepared everything for delivery?"

"The little blouses and diapers for the little ones are all sewn up."

Hearing the young wife's quick and clear voice, Wang Ziru could tell that she was straightforward and could be humble when doing her work.

Look, she is almost pregnant and she is still washing clothes for the whole family.

On such a cold day, she couldn't squat down with her big belly, so she had to kneel on the cold stone slabs to wash clothes.

Wang Ziru felt her knees aching just watching this.

Although the young wife was physically disabled, she scrubbed clothes in the stream very skillfully with her hands, as if she was competing with the other women.

"She is the kind of fool that my mother-in-law scolds."

Seeing that the baby was about to come, I didn't know how to find an excuse to lie down at home and rest for a while.

Wang Ziru did not formally agree to deliver the baby, and something quickly came to her mind.

A few days ago.

While picking wild mushrooms in the forest, she accidentally heard a few old guys in the next yard instigating Zhao Junxia's mother-in-law behind her back.

Maybe Zhao Junxia was too capable and upright, so after she got married, her mother-in-law or sisters-in-law disliked her.

So those idle old folks in the village instigated Grandma Zhao Junxia behind her back, planning to give her a good beating while she was in confinement and weak and unable to resist.

Wang Ziru remembers it clearly.

That day, a few old folks were sitting in the yard next to the Zhai family basking in the sun. Zhao Junxia's mother-in-law, who looked honest and introverted, was encouraged by the other old folks to prepare a big move.

Just wait until Zhao Junxia is in confinement and then teach her a lesson, so that she will keep her head down, be obedient, and submit to her in-laws, and do whatever they tell her to do.

This kind of thing is very common in rural areas.

This matter had nothing to do with Wang Ziru, she just found those old things annoying.

Although this young wife is definitely good at doing housework, she is about to give birth. If she gives birth smoothly, the one who works outside might give birth to the baby.

In her previous life, she worked in obstetrics and gynecology and had actually encountered this situation.

Zhao Junxia glanced around and whispered, "I heard other women in the village talking about it privately. They said that Sister Ziru is treating Han Xiuxiang recently."

At first she didn't believe that Wang Ziru could deliver the baby, but after hearing the rumor, she told her mother-in-law that she would ask Wang Ziru to deliver the baby when the time comes.

"Sister-in-law Xiuxiang just has a minor problem, which is a problem that all women will have. Don't be surprised." Wang Ziru would not have admitted this in public, but since someone asked her, she felt it necessary to explain it clearly.

It saves us from those gossipy women in the village who, when they have free time, always poke fun at people behind their backs and make all kinds of wild guesses.

"Sister Ziru, don't worry. My husband asked you to deliver the baby as a token of his love." Zhao Junxia smiled sincerely.

She thought Wang Ziru was dragging her feet and not agreeing to deliver the baby because she was waiting for her to say this.

Wang Ziru understood that Zhao Junxia was looking at her eagerly at this moment.

I really want her to deliver the baby.

"Whether you feel the same way or not is another matter," Wang Ziru thought for a while, turned her head, and smiled softly, "As soon as there is any movement, let your man come over and inform me."

Next to her, another young wife was secretly surprised when she saw Wang Ziru personally agree to help with the delivery.

I originally thought that the women in the village were just guessing. Wang Ziru didn’t look that good before. Could she really treat illnesses?

"Zi Ru, can you really deliver a baby? Then can you treat women's...diseases?" The young wife looked nervous and asked in a low voice while biting her lip.

Wang Ziru looked at the young wife, whose name was Qian Li. Her husband’s family was the family of Mr. Zhang at the head of the village.

She was the daughter-in-law of Mr. Zhang’s younger brother, who married into Hongmei Village three years ago.

Qian Li is quite pretty and seems to be prettier and more delicate than Zhao Junxia, ​​but her only shortcoming is that she has not yet given birth to a child for her husband's family.

Is there something wrong with her body?

"What kind of disease in women are you asking about?" Wang Ziru put her thoughts aside for the moment.

Qian Li was embarrassed, and a blush appeared on her rosy face. "Actually, you may know that I have been married to my husband for three years, but I am still pregnant. My husband didn't take it seriously at first, but this year, my mother-in-law urged me to have a baby quickly."

Qian Li's voice was very low, but it reached the ears of two ladies who were squatting on a large stone slab high up in the river, washing clothes.

One of the aunties was excited and laughed strangely, "Speaking of this, your mother-in-law scolds you every time she mentions it behind your back. In your case, you should go to a big hospital in the county and let the doctor check you out. Logically speaking, you have a big butt, so you are destined to give birth to a son."

"It would be fine if she could give birth to a concubine."

Another aunt echoed.

The words of the two older aunts made Qian Li so embarrassed that she blushed and felt very sorry.

Zhao Junxia tried to smooth things over, "It doesn't necessarily mean that you have to have a big butt to give birth to a son. Look at Sister Ziru's butt, it's not that big, but she still gave birth to a baby."

When the women saw that Wang Ziru's husband had come back to visit his relatives, they not only bought themselves new clothes, but also took good care of Bao'er.

They couldn't help but ask Wang Ziru about the romantic affairs between the couple.

The auntie smiled and said, "Bao'er's father finally came home to visit his family. Are you two going to have a second child?"

Wang Ziru smiled with a hint of sarcasm, "We are almost out of food at home. Right now, it's good enough to be able to keep Bao'er alive."

The man hadn't even touched her yet.

How can there be a second child?

After washing their clothes, several women by the stream walked onto the road home one after another, carrying their wet clothes.

Wang Ziru walked at the end, carrying a basket of wet clothes back home.

She just popped her head out from the edge of the field.

When Zhai Ximo saw his wife coming back from washing clothes, he put down his shoulder pole, walked quickly out of the yard, took the bamboo basket, and carried it into the yard.

In the yard, a dozen workers were busy working. Seeing how considerate Zhai Ximo was to his wife, everyone started joking and teasing him about the good relationship between the couple.

Wang Ziru didn't say anything and hung the clothes one by one on the only rope under the tree in the yard.

Unable to bear the jokes of the villagers, Zhai Ximo said, "A basket of clothes is quite heavy. How can a woman carry it?"

"Hey! Third brother, what you said is true. Many men in the village will feel ashamed after hearing it."

The older mason smiled and pointed at Zhao Junxia who had just passed by the gate of the Zhai family's courtyard, "Didn't you see that just now, the fourth daughter-in-law of the Luo family was about to give birth, but she was still washing such a big basket of clothes, and her husband didn't come to help her."

"Let's not talk too much about other people's business." Zhai Ximo walked out of the yard carrying a shoulder pole. He bent over, hunched over, and threw the bricks one by one into the dustpan, stacking them neatly without raising his head as he spoke.

These people in the village, whether men or women, like to talk about others in person or behind their backs.

Zhai Ximo became more determined about one thing: when the vacation was over, he must bring his mother and son back to the army.

At noon, Wang Ziru waited for Liu Xiangqin to finish preparing lunch for a dozen workers before going to the kitchen, making some scallion and egg soup and stewing two bowls of corn grits and white rice in a hanging pot.

The mother and son sat down by the fire in the kitchen, about to eat.

When Zhai Ximo saw his wife cooking scallion and egg drop soup, he couldn't help but run into the kitchen and scoop a bowl to drink.

Outside the main hall, someone was heard calling Wang Ziru's name loudly.

"Is Miss Ziru at home?!"

A figure rushed into the room and asked.

Zhai Ximo still had a bowl of egg drop soup in his throat when he turned around and saw that it was the fourth child of the Luo family. "She's here. What do you want to see her for?"

"Third brother, you are here too! My wife is having a seizure, and I want to ask Sister Ziru to come over and help with the delivery." Luo Laosi said anxiously.
