Chapter 170: Men look down on women
Tang Wandang was not shooting without purpose.
She had heard Grandma Bai talk about this recipe before.
Nowadays, boys are more popular than girls, and people get married early. Many women are thin and underdeveloped when giving birth to their first child, and they will face the symptom of having no milk.
However, there is no way to achieve various methods to increase milk production at present.
So herbal treatment can still have some effect, but because the effect is slow, it is basically not used.
Children in rural areas are raised in a rough way. Sometimes when their mothers have no milk, there are always a few women in the same village who are breastfeeding. They usually discuss and give some benefits, then take the baby away to the one with more milk to feed.
Since Qing didn't want to do this, Tang Wan wanted her to try this method.
Tang Wan also told them about the slow effect.
This prescription is mainly for nourishing the body. Only when the body is healthy can milk production be fast.
After hearing Tang Wan's words, Grandma Qing nodded repeatedly: "Even if the milk doesn't come out, it's good to recuperate."
"Okay, then I'll go back and tell Grandma Bai and send the recipe over later."
----------------------
Tang Wan went back and told Grandma Bai about this, and Grandma Bai would definitely not refuse.
Qing was considered someone in the village who was relatively familiar with Tang Wan, so this request was not excessive, and Grandma Bai naturally agreed.
It’s called a prescription, but where can a poor family get the medicine?
Grandma Bai basically replaced the herbs in the prescription with herbs that could be dug up on the back mountain based on the actual situation. In order to make it easier for them to find them, Grandma Bai also took out some of them and asked Tang Wan to bring them over so that they could look for them.
It would not be surprising if those medicinal herbs were replaced with this kind of herb.
We all grew up near this mountain, and we have seen what is inside the mountain, even if we don’t know its name.
After connecting the herbs with the items in the prescription, Zhao Dazhuang went out to dig them without saying anything.
This time when Tang Wan came with the prescription, she happened to meet Sister Yanhong.
Tang Wan and Sister Yanhong rarely see each other except when they go to school.
The main reason is that the place we live is quite far away, and even if we want to visit someone, we can’t cross the entire village.
Meeting here today is the first time in the past few months that we have met somewhere other than the fields.
Sister Yanhong had just learned that Qing had given birth, and she brought a few eggs when she came.
When she came in, Zhao Dazhuang had just gone out carrying a hoe.
"Where is your man going with his hoe in the middle of the day?" Sister Yanhong said as she came in. Only after she came in did she see Tang Wan.
"We went up the mountain to dig something. Why did you come here in the middle of the day? You're so hot." Qing asked Sister Yanhong to sit down.
Summer is almost here, and the temperature has been high these days. It's still very hot outside at noon.
"I only have a little time now, I have to go to school in the afternoon."
The work in the fields during this period does not count. At first, each family must provide one person, and the rest depends on one's own wishes.
Tang Wan did not go.
From the Qing family, only Zhao Dazhuang is in power.
In Sister Yanhong's family, both of them are married. They live a relatively stable life and have never missed a day off.
"You've worked hard." Qing patted the seat beside the bed and asked her to sit.
"I won't sit down anymore. I'll take a look at the child. I just heard about you giving birth when I was in heaven. Is it a girl or a boy?"
"A big fat boy." Qing was happy when he talked about this. He lifted the thin quilt next to him and let Sister Yanhong see the sleeping child.
"A boy, a boy is good. Your position will be secure if you give birth to a boy." Sister Yanhong was busy touching the child's hand and didn't notice that Tang Wan and Qing beside her changed their expressions after she said this.
To be honest, if such words came out of Qing's mouth, Tang Wan would not be so shocked.
Young people have always grown up in an extremely unfair environment where boys are favored over girls, and are most easily influenced by this kind of thinking.
Moreover, Zhao Dazhuang is the only child in his family, so it is normal for him to want a boy first.
But when the same words come out of Sister Yanhong's mouth, it is not normal, it is simply unbelievable.
Not to mention that Sister Yanhong has never shown such an attitude, she herself has also expressed her disgust for the idea of favoring men over women when she spoke before.
This is the reason why Tang Wan and Qing were shocked.
But Sister Yanhong didn't think there was anything wrong with this sentence, and she didn't even notice Tang Wan and Qing's shock.
She bent down and touched the baby's face, saying to Qing: "When your baby turns a hundred days old, give me one of his clothes. I'll put it under my pillow."
After she finished speaking, she looked back and saw that Qing and Tang Wan had not yet regained their composure.
"What? You don't want to give it to her?" Sister Yanhong joked. She thought Tang Qing's expression meant that he didn't want to give her the clothes.
"No, you can use it when you want. I'll also find you a boy." Qing continued.
This is the custom here. If you want a boy, put a little boy's clothes under the pillow.
"Okay, I'll get it when the time comes. I have to go back to cook, so I won't tell you anymore." Sister Yanhong came and left in a hurry, without even having time to say a word to Tang Wan.
After she left, Tang Wan was silent, unable to get over the feeling she had just had.
Tang Wan's expression was so obvious that Lian Qing knew what she was thinking at a glance.
"People change. Look, you never thought that you would have such a good relationship with me now, right?" Tang Qing said half-jokingly, which was also a way to comfort Tang Wan.
“It’s only half a centimeter…”
Half a decade ago, Sister Yanhong had no urge to get married. She had her own persistence and dreams.
But now she seemed no different from the other people in the village.
It’s not that Tang Wan doesn’t understand this kind of person, but she just can’t imagine why Sister Yanhong could become the person she is now.
"It must be Sun Zhiqing's family who urged him to do so." Sun Zhiqing knew a little bit of the hidden story.
"Um?"
"Sister Yanhong went back with Sun Zhiqing. You know, Sun Zhiqing's family is a little dissatisfied with Sister Yanhong." Yanhong said the reason lightly.
Tang Wan knew that Sister Yanhong came back early during the holiday, but she didn't know why.
She had no habit of prying into other people's privacy. She felt that Sister Yanhong didn't want to talk about it, so she didn't ask.
I didn't expect to hear the answer here in Qing.
