Wang Zhengguo already knew about this, and immediately asked Niu Xiuying's husband to use a flatbed truck to take his wife and children home, and then come back to work. "I won't deduct your work points. Go! Go home and get your wife some good food!"

Niu Xiuying's husband's nickname is Xiaowu, which is what his brothers call him according to his seniority.

He left with the flatbed cart at great speed and soon came back panting. However, Jin Cuihua was worried about Niu Xiuying going home without food to eat, so she followed her home without caring whether her work points would be deducted or not and never came back.

Feng Qingxue sighed when she saw this scene, and suddenly a surge of stomach acid came up. She turned her head and vomited out her lunch with a "wow".

She has been pregnant for more than two months. Apart from occasional dry heaving in the morning, she has no other pregnancy symptoms. Now the blood and qi are too heavy, making her whole body uncomfortable, and it shows immediately.

Upon seeing this, Niu Xiuying's mother-in-law hurriedly said, "Sister, I'll go bury the dirty things." She was referring to the placenta, dirty blood, etc. that Niu Xiuying had expelled. The water in the toilet used to bathe the baby was also very dirty. She dealt with it all at once, rinsed the toilet in the river, and then picked it up and brought it to Feng Qingxue who had returned to the shade of the tree.

The women in the production team were full of awe for Feng Qingxue. She was so methodical and looked like a great doctor. Just looking at the delivery tools she took out, one could tell they were extraordinary, because even the midwives in their production team didn't have those foreign gadgets!

In the evening, Xiaowu brought a small basket of eggs and shelled peanuts to Feng Qingxue.

"Big sister, thank you for today."

"Fifth brother, I'll keep the peanuts for the kids as snacks, and you can take the eggs back to give to my sister-in-law." Feng Qingxue insisted on putting the ten eggs back into the basket. "We're all having a hard time, so don't be so polite. When the first child I delivered grows up and becomes capable, it won't be too late to ask him to give me something to thank me."

It sounded like she was expecting the child to be filial to her when he grew up, but Xiaowu was very happy to hear that. His previous son didn't live for ten days, and this child was the embodiment of all his hopes. Feng Qingxue's words actually pleased him more.

Waiting for the child to grow up does not mean that the child can grow up peacefully and safely? It sounds good to the father.

After repeated refusals, Xiaowu finally took the eggs back, as well as the half bag of brown sugar that Feng Qingxue asked Lu Tianjun to force on him.

After seeing off the grateful Xiaowu, Lu Tianjun bolted the door and went back to his room. He couldn't help but ask, "Aunt, why didn't you take the eggs but gave him half a bag of brown sugar instead? Brown sugar is much more valuable than eggs."

Feng Qingxue patted his shoulder and said, "Everyone's life is hard. Mothers who have just given birth can't get any nutrition at all. Our family is better off than theirs, so let's help as much as we can. Most of the people in our Wanglou Brigade are simple and honest. They are kind to others now, and it will not harm our family in the future." Even in the mid-1960s, they were too embarrassed to criticize the Lu family.

Although there are bad people, there are more good people after all. Most ordinary people quarrel every day over trivial matters, but the root cause is poverty. They are not bad people at heart. She has seen through it all in the past few months since she got married.

After listening to this, Lu Tianjun seemed to be thinking about something.

"Go to bed quickly and don't think about it. You still have to work tomorrow!" Feng Qingxue was highly focused as it was her first time delivering a baby alone. She kept laughing and urged Lu Tianjun to rest before she took a shower and went to bed.
