"Xiao Ping, hold on a little longer. I'm guarding outside. Don't be afraid." Qiao Jianhua's encouraging voice came from outside the door.
Xiaoping was almost out of strength. She felt as if her waist was being crushed piece by piece, and the pain made her soul burst.
Sweat and tears trickled down her temples.
"In the town of Dong, send me to the Dong Health Center..."
Grandma Tao conveyed Xiaoping's intention to the outside, "Jianhua, your wife said she wants to go to the hospital."
Qiao Jianhua used Lei Hongying's tactics to persuade Xiaoping, "Xiaoping, be strong. It's so cold going to the hospital. What if you and the child catch a cold?
On weekdays, we would be fine to stay in the clinic for the confinement period and then come out, but it is the Little New Year, and in a few days it will be New Year's Eve. We can't spend the New Year in the clinic, right?
Just be patient and hold on. Listen to Grandma Tao. Once the baby is born, I will do whatever you say. ”
Xiao Ping's face was pale and bloodless. She reached out and grabbed Grandma Tao's hand, "Grandma Tao, please, please... have someone send a message to my parents' home, and I... I will give you money..."
Grandma Tao comforted her, "Child, do you think I'm going to leave? If I leave, who will take care of you here?
Don't worry, my midwifery skills are well-known in this area. Just listen to me and I will make sure both you and the baby will be fine. ”
Xiaoping refused to give in.
Grandma Tao had no choice but to shout outside, "Jianhua, your wife asked someone to go to the ditch to call for help. One of you should call for help so that she can have some peace of mind."
"By the way, do you have any brown sugar at home? Let me cook a few more eggs with brown sugar to help the new mother regain her strength."
Soon a bowl of brown sugar eggs was brought in.
Xiao Ping was supported by Grandma Tao and forced the egg into her mouth.
"Eat quickly, the bottom is already four fingers open, the back will be soon, don't worry, it will be fine."
Xiaoping swallowed unconsciously relying on her own willpower.
"Have you notified my family?"
Grandma Tao comforted her, "It's all right, don't worry, I've told your husband about it."
After eating a bowl of hot brown sugar eggs, Xiaoping started screaming again.
Before Qiao Jianguo even entered the house, he heard someone shouting.
"Mom, why haven't you given birth yet?"
He asked Lei Hongqi.
Lei Hongyan pulled a frown and said, "How should I know? You useless thing, you gave birth to a child and cost me half a bag of brown sugar and six eggs."
Qiao Jianguo's eyes lit up, "Mom, I want to eat brown sugar eggs, too."
Lei Hongqi's face became even longer, "Hey, hey, you lazy bastard, do you want to give birth to a baby too?"
Qiao Jianguo felt embarrassed. He walked around the stove and saw that no one at home seemed to be cooking, but there were a few steamed sweet potatoes in the pot.
It seemed that Lei Hongqi and the other two just had some sweet potatoes for lunch.
He doesn't want to eat sweet potatoes.
I rummaged through the cupboard and saw a piece of brown sugar left over from cooking brown sugar eggs, and six or seven eggs in the basket.
A look of joy flashed in Qiao Jianguo's eyes. He picked it up, put it in his arms and went out.
At nine o'clock in the evening, the exhausted Xiaoping finally gave birth.
A chubby little girl.
After giving birth, Xiaoping fainted. Mrs. Tao handed the baby to Qiao Jianhua and hurried back to the room.
After waiting for a whole day, Qiao Jiuwang heard that it was his daughter. A flash of hope appeared in his eyes and he turned back to his room.
Lei Hongqi's already dark complexion became even darker.
