In the blink of an eye, it has been more than three months since Wen Nuan came into this world.
Wen Nuan has been feeling a little uncomfortable these past few days, and her lower abdomen is always aching.
"Xiao Nuan, is your stomach hurting again?" Xie Sufang looked at Wen Nuan with concern.
"A little bit, it hurts from time to time..." Wen Nuan's face was a little pale.
In the past three months, Wen Nuan would occasionally pick up a rabbit or a pheasant from the mountain. In addition, since Wen Nuan was willing to feed herself, Lin Yiman would occasionally steam a bowl of white rice or cook a bowl of millet porridge for her as a snack. So in the past three months, Wen Nuan gained a lot of weight, her eyebrows and eyes seemed to have grown a lot, and she became much whiter and more beautiful.
"Could it be a stomachache caused by growing up?" Liu Xiaoling interrupted, "I remember my nephew would have stomachaches from time to time when he was growing up. My mother said that this would happen to all growing children."
"I'm not a child..." Wen Nuan looked at Liu Xiaoling speechlessly.
"It's possible," Xie Sufang seemed to believe it. "Wen Nuan, you were in a very poor health before. You came to the countryside when you were 13 years old. That was the time when you were growing up. You didn't have enough food, which delayed your growth. Now you can eat enough and start to grow again, so it may be caused by growth."
"Xiao Nuan, do you want me to send you to the clinic?" Lin Yiman asked worriedly.
"It doesn't hurt now, it just hurts intermittently. Let's wait and see tomorrow. If it still hurts tomorrow, I'll go to the clinic..." The stomach pain was gone, and the warm look on his face eased.
"Okay, just watch. If you really can't hold on, tell us and we'll go to the health center."
"I understand, Sister Sufang."
The next day, Wen Nuan did not go to the clinic because her menarche came.
Early in the morning, Wen Nuan woke up with a stomachache. She sat up and felt a surge of heat under her body. She was stunned for a moment...
Wen Nuan carefully raised her buttocks and looked at the quilt under her. Sure enough, there were some blood stains on the quilt. The relatives came~~
Wen Nuan called out to Xie Sufang awkwardly, "Sister Sufang..."
"What's wrong with Xiao Nuan? Is your stomach hurting again?" Xie Shufang, who was awakened by Wen Nuan, suddenly turned around and sat up, asking nervously.
"Sister Sufang, I think my period has come..."
"Aunt, when did your period come?" Xie Sufang looked at Wen Nuan in confusion.
Wen Nuan forgot that in this era, people don’t call it “period”, it seems to be called... “monthly period”.
"No, Sister Sufang, I think I'm having my period..."
"You're having your period?" Xie Sufang reacted immediately. "Oh, Wen Nuan, you're having your period!"
"Sister, do you have anything I can use?" Wen Nuan asked awkwardly.
"Oh, yes, yes, wait, I'll get it for you!" Xie Shufang quickly got off the kang, opened her cabinet and took something out for Wen Nuan.
Her warm heart was always lifted. She seemed to have seen a movie before, in which it said that women of this era all used wood ash. How dirty!
Just as she was thinking about it, Xie Sufang came out with a big bag of things, "Come, Wen Nuan, I'll tell you how to use it!"
Xie Sufang opened the package, revealing very rough red toilet paper inside.
"Sister, do you want to use this?"
"Yes, use this. I'll tell you how to use it. Go to the bathroom and change it first!"
Seeing that it was not wood ash or menstrual belts, Wen Nuan breathed a sigh of relief, and her heart was finally at ease.
Xie Sufang gently taught Wen Nuan how to use the paper, then folded a stack and told Wen Nuan to go to the bathroom and change them.
Wen Nuan changed her pants, took the paper and went to the toilet, then changed the paper with difficulty.
"I now realize the bad side of this era..." Wen Nuan said to Fei Fei with a look of despair.
"Why, Master?" Feifei asked puzzledly.
"I have my period here, and I don't even have a sanitary napkin. I just use a few thin pieces of paper. I'm really worried that it will be exposed!"
As she spoke, Wen Nuan felt her stomach starting to ache again.
Now Wen Nuan finally figured out why my stomach had been aching these past few days. It turned out that my relatives were coming...
"Poor women..."
Wen Nuan rubbed her belly and slowly moved back into the house.
"How's Wen Nuan? Are you feeling better?"
"Sister Sufang, my stomach hurts a lot..."
"I'll make you a bowl of brown sugar water. You'll feel better after drinking it."
"I have some brown sugar here, sister, you can take it and make it!" When Wen Nuan saw Xie Sufang was about to open her own cabinet to get brown sugar, she hurried forward to stop her, opened her own cabinet, and took out her own brown sugar.
Xie Sufang didn't refuse. She took the warm brown sugar and went to the kitchen.
After drinking Xie Sufang's loving brown sugar water, Wen Nuan finally felt a little better.
"Xiao Nuan, you don't have to go to work today. Sister Sufang and I have asked for a day off for you. You should have a good rest and don't touch cold water. Wait until after a few days to wash your clothes. I will cook for you these days and you can feed me later," Lin Yiman walked into the room and softly reminded Wen Nuan before going to work.
"I understand, Sister Yiman, thank you!" Wen Nuan had been with the girls at the educated youth center for three months. She already knew the characters of these girls. They were all kind-hearted girls. Wen Nuan did not refuse and accepted Lin Yiman's kindness because she had a severe stomachache.
The educated youth all left, and Wen Nuan fell into a deep sleep with her stomach held.
After sleeping for a while, I was woken up by the pain again.
"Fei Fei, is there any painkiller or something in the mall that you can exchange for me? My stomach hurts so much..." Wen Nuan's face turned pale with pain.
"Master, please hold on a little longer. I will go find it now!"
"Okay, go ahead..."
After waiting for about five minutes, Feifei's little voice rang out, "Master, I found it!"
“Give it to me quickly!”
A pink light flashed, and a small paper bag fell beside the warm pillow. "Master, this is pain-relieving powder. Mix it with water and drink it, and the pain will go away."
Wen Nuan had no choice but to drag her body slowly to the kitchen and drink the pain-relieving powder mixed with water.
After drinking the water, Wen Nuan sat on a stool to relax for a while. After about two or three minutes, the pain in Wen Nuan's stomach gradually subsided.
"This pain-relieving powder is quite effective. My stomach finally doesn't hurt anymore!"
Wen Nuan let out a long sigh and spoke lazily while lying on the table.
Feifei looked at Wen Nuan's pale face and felt very distressed. She gently landed on the table and slowly touched Wen Nuan's cheek with her dark little nose.
Wen Nuan rubbed Fei Fei's nose and said, "I don't feel any pain anymore. Don't worry about me."
"Master, Feifei will go up the mountain to find many, many good things to help you recuperate!"
"Well, thank you Feifei!"
This body is even more severely deficient than Wen Nuan had imagined. It seems that recuperating is a long-term task...
