It is said that birds of a feather flock together. Tiezhu and others stay with Lu Chaoli every day. They have seen everything Lu Chaoli did to Jiang Li. These men, who were already dominated by their wives, now love their wives even more.
They want to follow the boss!
The world is big, but my wife is the most important! During Jiang Li's pregnancy, Lu Chaoli negotiated a big deal and signed a contract with a large pork factory in the city. In the future, the pigs he raised will be sent directly to the pork factory.
The pork factory will recruit as many pigs as Lu Chaoli raises, so he has a stable sales chain and doesn't have to go out and look for customers to get orders.
With a long-term vision, Lu Chaoli expanded the pig farm. In just one year, the initial investment had increased more than ten times. Lu Chaoli transformed from a poor boy into a large pig farmer.
The villagers also made a lot of money with him, and now their quality of life is much better than before.
Everything is moving in the right direction.
The weather is nice today, the sun is not too strong and the breeze is just right.
Mother Lu spread a mat in the yard and started making small clothes and tiger-head shoes for her unborn grandchildren.
Jiang Li sat under the peach tree in the yard and talked to Lu's mother. She became interested as she watched her mother embroider the tiger-head shoes with her needlework.
"Mom, I want to try it too."
Mother Lu looked up at Jiang Li with a smile, and handed her the needle and thread and tiger-head shoes: "Come, try it, I'll teach you!"
As Mother Lu spoke, she stood up from the mat and walked to Jiang Li, personally instructing her how to thread the tiger-head shoes.
"Put the needle here and lead the thread from here."
Mother Lu pointed to the location on the tiger-head shoes.
Jiang Li held the needle and followed Lu's mother's instructions to embroider tiger-head shoes. As soon as the needle touched the tiger-head shoes, she felt a sudden sharp pain in her stomach.
Jiang Li bent down and covered her stomach, and the tiger-head shoes in her hand fell to the ground.
"Xiao Jiang, Xiao Jiang, what's wrong with you?"
Mother Lu was startled and quickly bent down to support Jiang Li.
"Mom, I think I'm about to give birth."
"Chao Li, Chao Li, go and call your Aunt Zhang and Aunt Zhou over, Xiao Jiang is about to give birth!"
Mother Lu shouted anxiously towards the second floor. Lu Chaoli, who was making the bed, heard it and hurried down from the room.
"Xiao Jiang, Xiao Jiang, don't be afraid. I'll call Aunt Zhang and Aunt Zhou to deliver your baby!"
Aunt Zhang and Aunt Zhou had learned how to deliver babies from others before, so whenever anyone in the village had a baby, they would ask them to come over.
Just as Lu Chaoli was about to go out, Aunt Zhang, who came to visit Jiang Li, came in carrying apricots and dates.
"Auntie, you're here just in time. Xiao Jiang is about to give birth. Auntie, please help her deliver the baby!"
"Xiao Jiang is about to give birth? Quick, let her lie on the bed!"
Aunt Zhang quickly put the basin of apricots and dates in her hand on the ground and ran towards Jiang Li.
"Mom, Aunt Zhang, I'll leave Xiao Jiang to you first. I'll go call Aunt Zhou over now!"
After Lu Chaoli finished speaking, he ran out. Mother Lu and Aunt Zhang helped Jiang Li back into the house. Father Lu put all the hot water in the house at the door and started boiling water again.
Aunt Zhou's house was not far from Lu Chaoli's. After learning that Jiang Li was about to give birth, Aunt Zhou didn't even bother to take off her apron and hurriedly followed Lu Chaoli to Lu's house.
In addition to Aunt Zhou, Aunt Wang, who they met on the road, also came to help. After learning that Jiang Li would need a lot of hot water during delivery, Lu Chaoli ran to his neighbor's house to borrow hot water, and Lu's father also increased the heat and hurried to boil water.
Hot water was brought into the house one basin after another, and blood was brought out one basin after another. After seeing the blood in the yard, Lu Chaoli's eyes went dark and he almost fainted! "Xiao Jiang, Xiao Jiang!"
"Stop! Xiao Jiang, this is a critical moment. Why are you going in to cause trouble? Just wait outside!"
Mother Lu was afraid that Lu Chaoli would go in and cause trouble, so she sternly warned him and quickly picked up the hot water at the door and walked into the house.
Father Lu, who was boiling water in the kitchen, heard the noise in the yard and quickly got up and walked out: "Chao Li, you can't go in now, come and boil some water with me!"
Father Lu grabbed Lu Chaoli's arm and dragged him to the kitchen, making him stay under his supervision.
Lu Chaoli sat on the stool in a daze, his whole body tense. When he heard Jiang Li's cry of pain, his brows knitted together, and he wished he could suffer this pain for Jiang Li.
Father Lu pursed his lips tightly. As a person who had experienced this, he knew very well how Lu Chaoli felt at the moment. When Mother Lu gave birth to Lu Chaoli, he was also worried, fearing that something might go wrong.
Father Lu raised his hand and patted Lu Chaoli on the shoulder: "Don't worry, with your mother and a few aunts here, Xiao Jiang will be fine."
Although he said this, Father Lu couldn't help but frowned.
Jiang Li was indeed fine. She had used pain-relieving drugs in advance, so she didn't feel any pain during delivery. Giving birth was as smooth as taking a shit.
But Aunt Zhang, Mother Lu and others were all there, so in order not to arouse suspicion, Jiang Li had to pretend to be in pain.
After shouting for a while, the baby in her belly couldn't wait to come out. Jiang Li grabbed the bed sheet with both hands and gave birth to the baby with one force.
“Wow wow—”
Loud crying sounds came from the house, and beads of sweat the size of beans on Lu Chaoli's forehead flowed down his temples.
“It’s born, it’s born!”
Father Lu patted Lu Chaoli's shoulder excitedly. Lu Chaoli grabbed Father Lu's hand and said in a trembling voice, "Dad, help me up."
“Hey!”
Father Lu stood up suddenly, and because he stood up too suddenly, he had hypoglycemia, his vision went dark, and he almost fell backwards.
Lu Chaoli: “…”
He forced himself to stand up and support Father Lu despite the weakness in his legs.
"It's born, Chaoli, your wife gave birth to two big fat boys!"
The village head's wife, Aunt Wang, came out with a smile to announce the good news.
"Where's Xiao Jiang? How's Xiao Jiang?"
Lu Chaoli didn't care how many children there were or whether they were boys or girls, and hurriedly asked about Jiang Li's situation.
Aunt Wang continued, "Don't worry, Xiao Jiang is fine, both mother and child are safe!"
"Dad, hold on to the wall first, I'll go in and check on Xiao Jiang!"
After Lu Chaoli finished speaking, he let go of his father and ran into the house.
Aunt Zhang and Aunt Zhou were cleaning the two children, while Mother Lu was bending over to wipe the sweat off Jiang Li's forehead.
After entering the room, Lu Chaoli immediately focused his attention on Jiang Li lying on the bed. When he saw Jiang Li's slightly pale face, Lu Chaoli's eyes reddened and he walked towards her with heavy steps.
Jiang Li looked at Lu Chaoli who was walking towards her with a smile in her eyes. When Lu Chaoli came to the bed and stretched out his hand, she put her hand in his palm.
Lu Chaoli held Jiang Li's hand tightly, but no sound came out when he opened his mouth.
"Why are you still crying?"
