Song Qi did not come back that night. Ling Ju used up some of her energy and slept for a while. The child cried twice at night, and she got up to feed him twice.
Of course, one of Tian Mei or Chen Chun had to be present when breastfeeding, so in the end she couldn't sneak out to take a shower, so she had to endure it for two more days.
Because of giving birth, my waistline is much thicker than when I was thin. Not only do I have to take care of myself during the confinement period, but I also have to do some postpartum recovery exercises this month.
Looking at my waist-length hair in the bathroom mirror, I suddenly felt particularly unhappy. An idea suddenly flashed in my mind: why not cut my hair short? I did it right away.
I found a pair of big scissors, divided the hair into two strands, tied it up, measured the length, and cut it with one snip. Wow, these scissors are pretty fast. Then I cut the other side.
She placed two locks of long hair neatly on the table.
I put the scissors aside, untied the cut hair, and looked at it carefully from front to back and left to right. It was very good.
This length should be considered collarbone hair in later generations, but it’s okay to wash your hair if you can’t take a shower. Just as I connected the water, I heard the sound of slippers tapping into the bathroom.
"Hey, sister-in-law, what are you doing? You are not going to wash your hair! Wait, you cut your hair?" Song Xin exclaimed.
Ling Ju quickly gestured to silence him, "Keep your voice down, my aunt! Come in and close the door."
After Song Xin went in, he found that Ling Ju's water was already prepared. "You want to wash your hair? You are in confinement now! You can't wash your hair!"
Ling Ju said, "It's okay, this won't affect me. Don't tell anyone, I won't have any problems!"
Song Xin thought about it and agreed. After all, his second sister-in-law had a secret recipe. "Okay, do you need my help?"
"No, go to the bathroom first!"
"good."
After Song Xin went back to sleep, Ling Ju quickly washed her hair, but just as she was about to put her head in the water, she heard the sound of a car turning around the corner.
Who else could be causing this noise at this time except her dear husband?
Never mind, just wash it first, it’s too itchy.
As soon as Song Xin returned to the room, he heard movement at the door and quickly got out of bed to open it.
When he opened the door, he found that it was Song Qi who came back. "Second brother, why are you back so late?"
It's already midnight!
"Is your sister-in-law asleep? Is the child making a fuss?"
Song Xin knew Ling Ju was washing her hair. "Um, my second sister-in-law is in the bathroom. The child just finished feeding and fell asleep."
"Okay, go to sleep."
Song Qi closed the door and went back to the room to check on the child. The child was sleeping soundly, with the scent of milk all over his body.
So cute.
Then he changed his clothes, took his pajamas and towel and went to the bathroom.
Ling Ju had finished washing her hair and was drying it when she heard footsteps approaching and opened the bathroom door.
Seeing Song Qi at the door, she forced a big smile and whispered, "Song Qi, how do you like my new hairstyle?"
Song Qi looked at the long hair that had been cut off and then at her haircut that looked like it had been gnawed by a dog. He said reluctantly, "It's fine."
Then, in return, I received a sweet kiss from a certain woman. That was fine, it was worth it.
"But?" He frowned.
"What's wrong?"
"You washed your hair? Can you wash your hair now?"
Ling Ju quickly pulled him into the bathroom, "Hush! Don't let Mom hear! I'm telling you, don't let it slip! Actually, you can take a bath and wash your hair during the confinement period, the main thing is to avoid catching a cold. You know my body, and I didn't have an episiotomy when I gave birth, so I recovered quickly, so washing my hair and taking a bath is no problem."
Song Qi was really naive. He thought carefully about what Ling Ju said. He definitely didn't understand anything about confinement after childbirth. He had only heard that one should not be exposed to the wind or take a bath. But Ling Ju came forty years later, and her living standards and concepts must have improved.
"Okay, I'll wash you, but you have to keep warm."
"Okay, then you wash it and I'll go back and wait for you. Wait for me to rest. I have to take care of my hair. I've been taking care of it for so long."
The woman took the cut hair and tiptoed back to the bedroom.
Song Qi looked at her back and shook his head helplessly.
Early the next morning, Ling Ju replaced the baby and became the focus of the family.
Especially when Song Wei, who rushed back from Chengdu, saw her hairstyle, he didn't even care about the child. He sat there and started to laugh at her, saying that it looked like it was bitten by a puppy.
This made her very suspicious. Was the haircut really that bad?
But she thinks it’s great!
Song Qi rolled his eyes at Song Wei, who was grinning from ear to ear while holding the child in his arms. "You're done, why are you still laughing?"
Song Wei held the child and glanced at Song Qi's dark face. "Okay, okay, I'll shut up!"
Ling Ju turned her head and asked, "Song Qi, is it really ugly? But when I asked you last night, you said it was pretty good!"
After Ling Ju finished speaking, Song Xin and Shen Chuntianmei on the side couldn't help laughing.
"Juzi, it looks fine from the front, but not from the back. I'll fix it for you after dinner. Don't pay attention to your elder brother, he just owes it." Chen Chun comforted.
"But why do you suddenly want to cut your hair, sister-in-law? Your hair is so black and thick, wouldn't it be a pity to cut it off?"
"No, I just feel lightheaded now. My hair will grow back anyway."
Song Wei handed the child to Tian Mei, stood up and stretched himself, "This courtyard is really nice, but it's a little short of rooms, otherwise I would have wanted to move in. Oh, is there any empty courtyard around here, otherwise I might as well buy one."
"Sure, buy a house that's nearby so it's convenient for you to come and help me take care of the kids." Ling Ju smiled.
Song Wei is also good at taking care of children. As soon as he comes home, he washes his hands and disinfects them before going to see the child. His posture is more skillful than Song Qi. He calls his children "nephew" and "nephew" all the time. He is so adorable that Ling Ju feels ashamed of herself. She and Song Qi, as parents, seem to be a little too calm.
