Chapter 144 Chapter 144 The kid is here!
On September 18th, there was a heavy rain in Ningzhang City.
When the wind blew and the rain started, the temperature dropped several degrees in an instant, and it was cool inside and outside the house.
The rain continued to fall until the next morning, and the air was filled with the smell of earth. Because of the rain, the room seemed a little dim with the curtains drawn.
Mu Mian was woken up by the baby in her belly kicking her. It didn't hurt, but the kick was quite strong.
She dazedly reached for the watch on the bedside table and looked at it. It was not yet seven o'clock, and she should have been up at this time usually.
Mu Mian put down the watch, and the kid moved again, and his belly bulged a little.
Mu Mian touched his belly with amusement, "Why are you following the alarm clock?"
She has been waking up like this many mornings recently. It can be seen that the little girl has a very regular schedule, just like her father.
Mu Mian had just sat up with her hands on the bed when the child's father came in.
Mu Mian looked at Wen Chen and laughed, "Fourth brother, you seem to have an alarm clock on you too."
Wen Zhuan took two steps forward, "I guessed that you should get up. Were you woken up by that brat again?"
Mu Mian nodded, "It's not a big deal. If she hadn't kicked me, I could have slept for another quarter of an hour. It's up to you. She's like a little alarm clock."
Wen Chen said in a serious tone, "It seems like we don't have to worry about him going to school anymore. He will definitely not be late."
Mu Mian held his stomach and laughed out loud, "You're really thinking too far ahead."
While the couple was chatting, Wen Chen had already taken Mu Mian's shoes and picked up a pair of clean socks. He was very skilled at this job. Once the socks were put on, he just lifted them with his index finger and the shoe was put on.
Mu Mian cooperated by stretching out her other leg. It was really inconvenient to be pregnant for more than nine months. She couldn't even see her toes when she lowered her head.
If you really want to put it on, you can actually reach it, but it's a bit strenuous. However, there is no need for Mu Mian to put it on himself, as Wen Zhan had taken over this job a long time ago.
When Mu Mian finished washing and tidying up, Comrade Mu Fugui called out, "Daughter, it's time to eat!"
Mu Mian put the towel on the washstand and shouted back, "I'm coming!"
Early in the morning, the living room of Room 201 was filled with fragrance.
Yesterday was the Mid-Autumn Festival. In the morning, Comrade Mu Fugui went out in the rain to buy a piece of meat, beef. There were many people queuing up at that time, and Comrade Fugui was lucky enough to buy the last piece.
The old lady braised the meat yesterday afternoon. The meat was eaten up in the evening, and the broth was used to cook noodles this morning.
There are many people in the family, so the noodles and soup filled three large enamel basins.
As soon as Mu Mian sat down, the old lady gave her a bowl and said, "Eat quickly, or it will get clumpy."
Mu Mian held the bowl, "Milk and some soup."
Xixi stared at the enamel basin while drooling, "It's too soupy. I want more soup, too."
The old lady said with a smile: "They all know how to eat and what tastes good."
Mu Fugui said in a carefree tone, "If you don't know what's delicious, you'd be a fool!"
The noodles were wrapped in the braised pork broth, and the taste was really amazing. Mu Mian took a sip and looked around.
Mu Fugui knows his daughter very well. "It's not tasty enough? Where did you put the bottle of chopped pepper sauce?"
The old lady raised her chin and said, "In the cupboard."
After she finished speaking, Wen Chen stood up and took it in two or three steps. He unscrewed the lid and handed it to Mu Mian.
Mu Mian took it and ate it with his chopsticks. "This sauce is much tastier than the ones produced by the food factory."
The old lady had never made such a spicy sauce when she was in the brigade before. She learned it from Liao Qiutong's mother last year. Mu Mian's taste has changed a bit since she became pregnant. She can eat spicier food than before, so she has to make some when she gets addicted.
Liu Shuangcui narrowed her eyes when she saw the two large chopsticks. "Use less. It's so early in the morning. Be careful of heartburn."
Mu Mian stirred the food in the bowl with his chopsticks. "Don't burn it, it smells good!"
In Mu Zhuo's arms, Xiao Beibei uttered "ah ah" twice, and his saliva flowed down to his chin.
Mu Zhuo quickly picked up the bib and wiped it, "You are such a greedy person, you also know that it is fragrant, but don't even think about eating it."
Xiao Beibei: “Ah~”
The five-month-old baby kicked his legs in protest. Although he is small, his legs are very strong.
Xixi, who was standing next to her, was scooping noodles with chopsticks in one hand, and reached out with the other hand to accurately hold down the pair of short legs, "Don't kick me, or I'll beat you up."
In the past few months, the little girl who has become a big sister has naturally evolved the common quotes of a big sister. In the past, when she was talking to Mu Zhuo, her words were always... hitting people is wrong, dad, you can't hit people.
All he says now is...Don’t bite your mom, or I’ll beat you! Stop pulling my hair! I’ll beat you up if you don’t let go!
Verbal threats sometimes work, and sometimes they don't.
For example, right now, Xiao Beibei is a little bit noisy, and it’s useless even if his legs are held down.
Nie Sihui put down the bowl and reached out to Mu Zhuo, "Give it to me, I'll carry him for a while."
Mu Zhuo slurped up the noodles and the soup in two or three bites and said, "You eat yours, I'll take him around."
Mu Zhuo held his son and stood by the window. There was a light rain coming in from outside. He teased his son with a "tsk tsk". The kid didn't appreciate it and scratched his father's arm hard.
Mu Zhuo hissed, "Comrade Mu Beibei, I am going to criticize you on behalf of the organization."
Xiao Beibei: "Wow wow ahhh~"
Mu Zhuo clicked his tongue, "You still have a temper."
Xiao Beibei: “Ah!”
Mu Zhuo: "What? I'm your father, how can you not tell the difference between a king and a queen?"
A father in his thirties was arguing back and forth with his five-month-old son, and everyone at the dinner table slurped their noodles as if nothing had happened.
Comrade Mu Fugui was very satisfied with the fact that his eldest grandson had strong hands and feet, "He will definitely be a good candidate for butchering pigs in the future."
If your feet are strong, your chassis will be stable!
Liu Shuangcui: "Why are you talking nonsense? Hurry up and eat. After you finish eating, see if the rain stops for a while. Come and help me grind the beans."
Mu Fugui: "I can go by myself, you can pack things for my daughter to take to the hospital."
Mu Mian gulped down the soup in two mouthfuls, and then showed his face from behind the large enamel bowl. "I know what to bring. I remember what my sister-in-law brought last time."
Liu Shuangcui: "Just have an idea. Let Sihui take a look after you're done."
After breakfast, the rain gradually showed signs of stopping, with only a little drizzle, so not wearing a raincoat did not affect going out.
There were groups of children playing in the water downstairs, fighting and making noises.
Today is a day off. In the morning, Mu Mian and Wen Chen tidied up their things at home. Most of the space in the closet was filled with her and the kid's things.
Even though the baby hasn't been born yet, he has a lot of clothes, socks, shoes, diapers and so on. Some were sent from the capital, and some were also sent from Wenzhe's older brother and sister-in-law.
As for Mu Mian, her relatives, Shi Xiaolian and Lele also helped her a lot after they knew that Mu Mian was going to be a mother. Several families sent a big package together, and Mu Mian just received it last month.
Mu Mian did have some experience on what to bring to the hospital, so the young couple quickly packed a big bag and could leave with it tomorrow.
In fact, if you calculate according to the date, it will take another week for the baby to be born.
However, some pregnant women give birth to their first child relatively early, like when Nie Sihui gave birth to Xixi. Although this is not absolute, there are also those who give birth on time or late. Ultimately, it depends on the individual, and every pregnant woman is different.
Mu Mian didn’t know which one he would be, but there were empty beds in the hospital, so it was better to go and stay there than to stay at home.
Giving birth these days is still very risky. Medical conditions are poor and there are risks even in the hospital, let alone at home. When the time comes, Mu Mian is still a little scared. It's a pity that she is so unlucky.
Everything was ready. On the morning of September 20th, Wen Chen took a leave of absence. Together with the old couple Mu Fugui, the whole family took their belongings and went to the hospital to complete the formalities.
It's no wonder that sometimes things just happen by chance. It was past ten in the morning when Liu Shuangcui took out the washbasin and towels they had brought with them. Mu Mian, who was sitting on the bed to rest, felt her stomach ache.
My son started to hurt.
As soon as her expression changed, Wen Chen noticed it immediately and hurriedly supported her, "Do you have a stomachache?"
Mu Mian nodded.
Comrade Mu Fugui had just come in with a rag and was about to wipe the bedside table. He was stunned when he heard this, "So soon? I'll go call the doctor."
Liu Shuangcui had been through this before, so she knew more than the two men. Although she was a little surprised that the timing was so good, she was still able to keep her composure. "Don't worry, take a deep breath. I think you'll have to wait."
Wen Zhan sat next to him, holding Mu Mian steadily, and patted his back with one hand, "Are you feeling better?"
Mu Mian nodded. She was indeed feeling better. The pain was not so severe now. She even had the energy to joke and pat her belly. "The little brat is really good at choosing the right time."
What a sensible kid!
The two of them didn't say much when the doctor came. She asked about the situation and it was similar to what Liu Shuangcui had said before, that the attack had just begun and they had to wait, so they couldn't enter the delivery room now.
Mu Mian felt pain all the way until noon. Wen Chen fed her lunch one mouthful at a time. Mu Mian ate most of it despite the pain. She had to eat because she was afraid that she would not have enough strength to give birth.
It turns out that the little guy is really a caring guy.
Some women feel pain for a whole day when giving birth to their first child. Mu Mian felt pain until just after 2 o'clock in the afternoon. After the doctor examined her, he said she could go to the delivery room.
The nurse pushed the bed over, and Wen Chen carefully carried Mu Mian onto the bed. It looked very steady, but in fact, some male comrades, after seeing their wives in pain for such a long time, their hands holding Mu Mian were trembling slightly, and their mouths were tightly pursed.
Mu Mian was in so much pain that cold sweat broke out on his forehead. The two of them held each other's hands tightly and were forced to let go only when they reached the door of the delivery room.
Comrade Mu Fugui stood on the other side, "Don't be nervous, girl, it will definitely come out soon!"
He had said this many times, and the whole way was filled with the chatter of Comrade Fugui.
The nurse opened the door and pushed Mu Mian in. "Family members, please don't stand at the door. Wait by the side."
As soon as the door was closed, Mu Mian didn't bother to look at what the delivery room looked like. She was in so much pain that her whole mind was on her stomach.
The delivery rooms these days have very poor soundproofing. When Mu Mian was screaming in pain inside, Mu Fugui and Wen Zhan, the father-in-law and son-in-law, had been pacing at the door of the delivery room for more than ten or twenty times, as if they had nails growing on their bodies.
Unable to sit down or stand, Liu Shuangcui and the old lady felt a little dizzy from being turned around, but no one asked the two to sit down.
In the delivery room, Mu Mian held tightly onto the thick cloth underneath with both hands and breathed in and out hard under the doctor's instructions.
Although the doctor was very patient, the pain did not ease at all.
Time passed by minute by minute, and the hair on Mu Mian's forehead was all wet with sweat. She didn't know how much time had passed. She only heard the doctor say, "I can see the head. Push harder!"
Mu Mian was a pregnant woman who listened to the doctor very much. She grabbed with both hands, and her crying was accompanied by two "sizzling" sounds at the same time.
The nurse next to her stared at the two big cuts on the thick cloth for a moment, but fortunately she was very professional and only stared for a second before she quickly got busy with her work.
After they were done, they stared at Mu Mian, who looked a little pale and well-behaved, and they all felt a little suspicious. There was something in their eyes...
This female comrade was too strong. It was the first time she encountered a woman giving birth and she tore their thick cloth into pieces.
The things used in hospitals are of very good quality and ordinary people really can’t tear them apart.
Mu Mian didn't know what the doctor and the nurse were thinking. When she came to her senses, she saw the nurse holding a baby over and said, "Come and see, it's a beautiful girl."
Mu Mian looked over and smiled, "So beautiful! I'm so awesome!"
The doctor laughed and said, "It's really impressive. This cloth... needs to be put on your bill, comrade."
Mu Mian smiled at the man and said, "Remember, remember, I will definitely pay for it."
None of this matters. What matters is...she gave birth to a beautiful daughter smoothly! !
