Chapter 146 The Young Man Was Embarrassed
Besides the aunties from the village, there were also Li Miao, Zhou Xuehua, Shen Yi, and a few others.
Although Li Miao is married, she has no children, and she and Zhang Ji have no plans to have any; they intend to remain childless...
Zhou Xuehua and Shen Yi were standing to the side, originally looking at the baby, but after hearing what the village aunties were saying about breastfeeding, they subconsciously looked at their own chests.
The young girls couldn't imagine what it would feel like to have their private parts sucked by a baby, so they showed extremely complicated and embarrassed expressions.
Not only them, but even Xia Yutong was a little shy. She felt that these things couldn't be discussed openly, but the people in the village seemed to think it didn't matter.
"It looks quite big, but you should still supplement your diet appropriately, in case there isn't enough milk and the baby goes hungry."
Xia Yutong was wearing a nursing bra, the very thin kind. Seeing everyone staring at her there, she subconsciously pulled the blanket up a little higher.
"What's there to be shy about? We're all women, we've all been here!"
Xia Yutong knew that no one meant any harm, but she still felt uncomfortable, as if her privacy had been violated.
Just then, Su Qinglian said, "I feel hungry."
Every two hours, Xia Yutong brought the child over to feed him.
Zhou Xuehua said, "Then we'll be going now."
She pulled Shen Yi away, and Shen Yi quickly said, "Let's go, Sister Yutong."
Then the other people around her, all the aunts and uncles from the village, showed no intention of leaving; they all wanted to see her breastfeed.
Xia Yutong couldn't understand what was so interesting about this; wasn't this her privacy?
Then she remembered that when she was a child, Su Jianguo took her to town to play. She was eating candied hawthorns when she suddenly saw a woman sitting in the courtyard of a building in town, lifting her clothes to breastfeed her child.
Su Yuanzheng was also there at the time, standing beside her, watching with great interest.
Now she's the one being watched.
Xia Yutong cleared her throat. "I'm going to breastfeed the baby."
If she hadn't said anything, these people definitely wouldn't have gone out on their own. Rural people don't think it's a big deal; they think it's okay to take a look, no big deal.
We're all women, taking a look isn't about getting something for nothing, and neither of us is trying to take advantage of the other.
"Could you please step outside for a moment?"
Xia Yutong generously said that the older women were indeed very understanding, and then said to Luo Caixia, "Old Luo, if you want to drink pig's feet soup to help with lactation, that's the best!"
"Okay, okay, you can go out now. It's a little embarrassing for a young person to be breastfeeding."
Luo Caixia's words made a group of aunties and grandmothers burst into laughter...
Xia Yutong didn't like so many people gathering here. After all, she had just given birth and preferred quiet, enjoying time alone with her daughter...
However, she needed someone to take care of her during her postpartum period, and she also needed to rest, so she had no choice but to ask Su Qinglian for help temporarily.
Everyone had left, but there was a pile of red envelopes on the side, all given by villagers for good luck.
Xia Yutong put the red envelope into a drawer. Seeing that Su Qinglian was still sitting on the edge of the bed, she said, "You should go out too, sister. I need to breastfeed."
At the hospital, Su Yuanzheng was there to watch over her most of the time, which was good. If Su Qinglian did something wrong, Su Yuanzheng would immediately scold her.
Deep down, Su Qinglian was very afraid of Su Yuanzheng, but at this time, Su Qinglian had probably gone to the rose field to deal with the matter of the old rose seedlings being burned...
For a whole week, he kept calling to make arrangements, but Xia Yutong didn't know the specifics of how things were going, because she couldn't leave her house...
Su Qinglian said, "Let me see, I'll just take a look."
"Can't."
Helpless, Su Qinglian walked to the door and said, "I'll stay outside. Call me when you're done feeding them."
——
At the rose base, a large area of roses was burned. The next day, Su Yuanzheng had people loosen the soil in the field, fertilize it, and then plant the old rose seedlings that had been transported over.
Next year's production cannot be delayed, and the damaged parts must be replaced immediately.
The burning of the rose garden in Nanbian Town caused a great uproar and repeatedly made it to the top of Shanghai's trending searches.
This surprised some of the older business owners in Haicheng, who couldn't believe that such a small town could attract so much attention.
Previously, when Nanbian Village gained attention, some people associated it with the Zhou family. People thought that it was because of the attention paid to the Zhou family and wealthy families that the small village had become so popular.
However, it seems that this is not entirely the case now. Xia Yutong's handicrafts are incredibly popular online. You may not know Xia Yutong, but most people definitely know an account called "Sister Nanbian".
She frequently updates her account with her handmade creations, which are exquisite and meticulously crafted, and she also accepts custom orders from her fans...
Many fans would post videos to show off their purchases, and some bloggers even went so far as to analyze the details of Xia Yutong's handicrafts. The more they analyzed, the more popular it became, and the more popular it became, the more people analyzed it, creating a cycle of traffic.
Nevertheless, Xia Yutong still wanted to further expand her online presence, and she couldn't stop even if it meant having a baby.
Customer service is still handled by Zhou Xuehua. For handmade items, we will only accept orders for the month, but production will be temporarily suspended. This has been announced to the public, and production will resume after she gives birth.
Shen Yi can help with small tasks like applying lip balm, but anything too complicated involves areas outside her knowledge.
Following Xia Yutong's instructions, Li Miao filmed and edited a large number of videos during the restoration of the rose garden, and posted them online, along with a note that the proprietress was in postpartum confinement... She received many blessings from netizens.
Su Qinglian insisted on taking care of the child, and Luo Caixia also wanted to, but in the end, she couldn't win against Luo Caixia. Su Qinglian had to go to work in the fields, and the task of taking care of the child fell to Luo Caixia.
Xia Yutong was exhausted. All she did every day was eat and sleep, quietly keeping Su Yixia company, feeding her, playing with her, and making up for the regrets of her previous life.
Su Yuanzheng was very tired and overworked every day, and he was also running around in Haicheng. When he returned that day, Xia Yutong had just woken up and glanced at him.
Women in their postpartum period, deprived of the sun, have exceptionally pale skin. Xia Yutong stretched out her hand, and the man gently placed it back under the covers.
The cozy room was filled with a rich, milky aroma.
"I came back to see you and Yixia, and I'll leave in a bit."
“Su Yuanzheng and Chen Xinya deserved their punishment, but I think they were pushed out by someone.”
"Whether she was pushed out or not, she did it. If an adult can act stupidly because of a few words of provocation from others, then that's the end of her."
Xia Yutong responded, "You have to be careful, okay?"
"Yes, you will. Take good care of yourself, okay?"
As he spoke, he lowered his head to kiss her, but instinctively turned his face away, saying, "No, Yixia is hungry."
