Chapter 219: Confinement



"That's not true. When I gave birth to your eldest sister and Shinian, I calculated the time for them to be conceived," said Fu's mother with a smile.

"Hearing what you said, mom, I am really lucky. If I really had to stay in confinement in the summer, I wouldn't be able to bear it for three days," said Tong Yiya

"That's right. What's more, our Yuanyuan is a good child. She is much better than other newborn babies. Every day, she only whines when she is hungry or has poop. Otherwise, she is very well behaved," said Mother Fu to Tong Yiya while teasing Yuanyuan.

Tong Yiya also felt that her child was very well behaved. When she was a barefoot doctor in the village, she had treated many babies. Thinking of those babies who could not be comforted no matter what, she felt a headache.

There are also naughty children in the village. If they grow up with their parents, they can still be controlled. But if they are boys and grow up with their grandparents, they are really spoiled. By the time the parents find that their children have bad tempers, it is too late to correct them.

Fu Shinian came in with the postpartum meal for Tong Yiya. Seeing what the two were talking about, he asked, "Mom, what are you and Xiaoya talking about?"

"Let's talk about the child. You brought her food. Xiaoya, you eat first." When Mrs. Fu saw that he came to bring her food, she asked Tong Yiya to eat first.

She stood up and said to Fu Shinian: "You stay here and take care of Xiaoya while she eats dinner. I'll go see if Uncle Zhang needs any help."

"The food over there is ready. I came here to call you to come over for dinner. It's just right that I brought Xiaoya's food over here. Mom, go eat without worry. I'll be watching over here," said Fu Shinian.

"Okay, I'll eat first. Xiaoya, remember to eat more. If it's not enough, ask Shi Nian to add some more," Fu Ma said to Tong Yiya.

"Okay, Mom. Go eat first."

After Fu Ma left the room, Fu Shinian placed the food he brought on the small table on the kang. He climbed onto the kang and moved the table next to Tong Yiya. He opened the food, which was very light and contained little salt and pepper.

Fortunately, Tong Yiya has never been a picky eater and can eat all kinds of food.

Fu Shinian used his rice bowl to scoop a bowl of chicken soup that had just been stewed this morning, and he considerately skimmed off the oil and water on the soup.

He scooped up a few pieces of chicken thigh meat and a bowl of soup and placed them on the table in front of Tong Yiya, saying, "Drink some soup to moisten your throat first."

"Well, have you eaten?" Tong Yiya asked

"I'll go eat later, don't worry about it," Fu Shinian replied.

Tong Yiya knew that he hadn't eaten yet. This was her man, and she couldn't just ignore him like he said. Seeing that she had a lot of food today, she said, "I have a lot of food today too, why don't you eat with me?"

"No, this is specially made for you. Eat more. I'll go over there and eat later." Fu Shinian refused.

"If you don't want to eat, then I won't eat either. I really have no appetite after eating these tasteless things all day long." Tong Yiya put down the bowl and said when she saw him refuse.

Seeing her stern face, Fu Shinian thought she was really angry. He tasted her food every day and it was really original and bland.

Afraid that Tong Yiya really didn't want to eat, he quickly said: "Okay, okay, I'll get some food with you, you must eat it, mom said, this is how you eat during the confinement period, after the confinement period, I will make you a few big dishes, then you can eat enough at once"

While Fu Shinian was persuading her, he picked up the chopsticks and put some food into her other empty bowl. Tong Yiya's expression remained unchanged. She just stared at him until he picked up the food and put it into his mouth. Only then did she pick up the bowl and continue drinking the soup.

After drinking half a bowl of soup, she started to eat the food, and from time to time she picked up some food and fed it to Fu Shinian, mainly because he didn't want to pick it up himself.

Tong Yiya's weight has been increasing since she became pregnant. She originally weighed only about 80 kilograms, but when she was about to give birth, she weighed 128 kilograms.

At first, she thought the fetus was too large, so she controlled her diet a little in the late pregnancy. But she didn't expect the baby to be less than five kilograms when it was born. Everything she ate during pregnancy was absorbed by her.

There is still a lot of fat on her belly now, and she has gained weight overall. I don’t know if she can still wear her old clothes after the confinement period.

During her pregnancy, she wore loose maternity clothes that she had sewn herself, and put away all her previous clothes.

She thought about it and touched her stomach with her free hand. When she felt a handful of meat, she lost the mood to continue eating.

Fu Shinian noticed that she was suddenly in a bad mood again, so he observed her. Seeing her looking at her stomach and sighing, he guessed why.

"Why don't you want to eat it? Is it because I didn't cook it well? How about I let mom cook it for you tomorrow?" Fu Shinian asked

"No, I just feel like I gained a lot of weight after giving birth," Tong Yiya replied.

"She's not fat. My wife looks good like this," said Fu Shinian.

Tong Yiya: "But I think I'm too fat"

Fu Shinian: "Then when we are out of confinement, I will run with you to lose weight, okay?"

Tong Yiya looked at the child and nodded, "This is the only way for now."

After they finished their meal, Fu Shinian stayed with her in the room for a while. After she and the child fell asleep, he took the dishes to the kitchen to wash them, and then came back to watch over them in the room.

The weather outside was getting colder and colder, so Fu Shinian and Dong Weibing started going out early and returning late every day to collect firewood in the mountains to store for the winter.

This year, Fu Shinian and Tong Yiya wanted to take Yuanyuan back to see their family, so they decided to go back with Fu's mother so that they could take care of her on the way.

So this year their family was going back to Beijing to celebrate the New Year. Before their firewood was fully prepared, Tong Yiya was out of confinement.

On the day she left confinement, she asked Fu Shinian to boil some ginger water for her to wash her hair. She then boiled a large pot of hot water and washed her body twice. While the room was still warm, she also gave Yuanyuan a bath.

The quilt covers in the room were also replaced with clean ones, and the dirty ones were soaked in bath water and waited to be washed the next day.

Tong Yiya felt much better after taking a bath. After she and Yuanyuan took a bath, they covered themselves with the quilt on the kang. Fu Shinian took out the water in the room, soaked the sheets, and took a bath himself. It couldn't be that there were three of them in the family and he was the only one who didn't take a bath today. It would be bad if his wife disliked his stench and dared to take him out of the quilt.

After taking a bath and putting away the basins, he went back to the room, lay on the kang and hugged his wife and son to sleep.

Tong Yiya, who was already asleep on the kang, felt the familiar embrace and leaned towards him. But now there was a child between them, so Fu Shinian could only make room for him and sleep behind Tong Yiya. He hugged her, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
