At this time, you may not be able to buy milk powder even if you have money and tickets. The best way is to let your child drink breast milk.
But Li Laidie was already injured, and no one could tell whether she had milk or not.
When Li Lai Di woke up, she drank millet porridge and ate eggs. As expected, she had no milk. She looked at Aunt Xu in panic, "Mom, why don't I have any milk?"
She finally gave birth to a son, but what should she do if she has no milk? What will her son eat?
Xu Daming had borrowed a milk powder ticket from another comrade-in-arms and bought the milk powder. Aunt Xu made the milk powder for her grandson and fed him first.
Li Laidi's eyes were red and she was still wondering why she had no milk.
Aunt Xu couldn't stand it anymore and said, "If you're fine, lie down and sleep for a while. If you have a good rest, you may have milk tomorrow."
She had already learned the price of milk powder from Xu Daming. She was heartbroken and smacked her lips, but there was nothing she could do.
If this were in the village, she could still hold the child and ask someone else to help feed the baby. But this is the military district’s family compound. Not to mention that there are no pregnant women in the compound at the moment, even if there were, they might not be willing to feed her child.
Li Lai Di shuddered. She had thought that her life would be much better after having a son. However, she didn't expect that although she had a son, she had no milk. Now she bought such expensive milk powder. She didn't know whether her mother-in-law and Xu Daming would blame her.
Aunt Xu got angry whenever she saw Li Lai Di's appearance. She didn't know if it was because her grandson was taken too well in Li Lai Di's belly and that his IQ was completely destroyed.
When Li Pandi brought Xu Weiwei here, she saw Aunt Xu sighing at Li Laidi. She quickly stepped forward and said, "Aunt, my sister has given birth to another daughter. Don't worry. My mother can give birth to a son, so my sister can definitely do the same."
Before Aunt Xu could say anything, Li Lai Di said, "Pan'er, I gave birth to a son."
There was a hint of pride in Li Lai Di's voice. She gave birth to a son instead of a daughter, which made her better than her mother.
Li Pandi's eyes widened and she immediately became happy. Her sister's second child was a son, so did it mean that her first child could also be a son? That was great.
Li Pandi touched her belly with a smile on her face. If this was a son, she would have someone to rely on in the future.
Aunt Xu really couldn't bear to see the two sisters look like this, so she called Xu Weiwei to her side and asked her to look after the newborn brother.
Xu Weiwei looked at her brother and whispered, "Grandma, my brother is not good-looking."
"You know what? Your brother is much more handsome than you were when you were a child."
When Li Lai Di heard this, she immediately scolded him and looked at her son lovingly: "I have never seen such a good-looking child in my life."
Xu Weiwei has never seen a monkey. If she has seen one, please tell me, is it a good-looking monkey?
Although Aunt Xu is her grandmother, her filter is not as thick as Li Laidi's, and she can't stand the way Li Laidi scolds Xu Weiwei.
She hugged Xu Weiwei and said, "All newborn babies are like this. They will look better in a few days."
Xu Weiwei looked at her brother with suspicion, but since her grandmother and mother said so, she nodded even though she didn't believe it.
Li Pandi also took a look at her nephew and nodded: "He is indeed good-looking, but a little small."
Li Lai Di proudly said: "My son drinks milk powder. The doctor said that he will grow up if he eats more."
"Milk powder?" Li Pandi shouted, "Sister, don't you have any milk?"
The noise was so loud that it woke up the child who had just fallen asleep, and he started crying softly.
Aunt Xu quickly picked up her grandson and glared at Li Pandi, her voice full of dissatisfaction: "Pandi, lower your voice a little, you scared the child."
Li Pandi quickly lowered her voice: "I didn't mean it."
Aunt Xu looked down upon Li Pandi more and more. She walked around the ward holding the child, humming a song to coax her grandson.
Li Pandi handed the paper bag she had been holding to Li Laidi: "Sister, this is the 100 grams of brown sugar I saved, it will help you replenish your body."
When Li Laidie heard about brown sugar, her eyes lit up. But when she heard that there was only one or two ounces, she was a little disappointed. However, she knew that Li Pandie was having a hard time, so she didn't say anything.
After Aunt Xu coaxed the child down and put him down, she happened to see the small package. Although she didn't know what was inside, she knew from the size that there wouldn't be much.
"Pandi, you have already visited your sister, so go back first and let her rest for a while. Weiwei will stay at your house for the next few days, and we will pick her up tomorrow when your sister returns."
When Li Pandi heard that Xu Weiwei would stay at home for another day, she wanted to say something but swallowed it back. She nodded and took Xu Weiwei back home.
Li Lai Di saw Aunt Xu's eyes fall on the paper bag, and smiled at Aunt Xu: "Mother, this is a tael of brown sugar that Pan'er sent to me."
"One or two taels?" Aunt Xu didn't expect Li Pandi to be so stingy towards her sister.
Although brown sugar is precious, she only gave one or two ounces of it, which is really stingy. Even if you can't buy brown sugar, you can always find a way to buy a hen, or at least some eggs, but she only brought one or two ounces of brown sugar.
Aunt Xu shook her head, looked at Li Laidie's haggard appearance, and finally swallowed the words on her lips.
In order to help Li Laidie recover quickly and to provide milk for her grandson, Aunt Xu went back and asked someone to buy a chicken, stewed a pot of chicken soup and sent it to Li Laidie.
But Li Laidie didn't respond until the evening, and the child sucked for a long time but didn't get any milk.
The Xu family asked a doctor to examine her, but the doctor couldn't tell the reason. He could only guess that Li Laidie was seriously injured and had no milk.
As for whether eating more good foods will help the child have milk in the future, no one can tell.
However, feeling sorry for the child, the doctor prescribed Li Lai Di half a pound of brown sugar and a bag of milk powder, but no more.
Li Lai Di felt bitter as she held the two tickets. Even if she had the tickets, she still had to pay for them. Besides, what would she do when she finished the bag of milk powder? Even though she loved her son, she couldn't bear to feed him milk powder all the time, as it was too expensive.
Aunt Xu was also heartbroken, but it was no use saying anything now, as she still had to take care of Li Laidie's body.
Qi Mengmeng didn't know about Li Laidi's situation. She came back today to attend the apology meeting of Lin Jianjun and Li Pandi.
Of course, for Lin Jianjun's sake, the conference did not ask them to apologize right away. Instead, it first reiterated the rules, then specifically pointed out several things that everyone did wrong, and only then did Lin Jianjun and Li Pandyi apologize.
This is also to let the military wives know that the mistakes they make will affect their men. This time it is just a loss of face, but if it happens again, it may be a punishment.
