Granny Wu didn't take the things immediately, so Qi Huilan stuffed the things into Lu Xiaochun's pockets and gave her five yuan and a pound of food coupons.
"Xiaochun, good boy, I know you have to go to work, so I won't keep you for dinner. Take this money with you to the state-owned restaurant to buy some buns to eat on the way."
Having said that, it doesn't cost that much money to buy buns, and the rest can be considered a thank-you gift to Granny Wu.
Lu Xiaochun looked at Granny Wu, who didn't say anything. She shook her head and said, "Aunt, I can't ask for so many things."
"Take what your aunt gives you and come home for dinner later." Qi Huilan said as she pushed Lu Xiaochun out.
Lu Xiaochun didn't dare to struggle and was pushed out of the door by Qi Huilan. Qi Huilan then turned back to push her bicycle.
"Mother-in-law, what about these things?" Lu Xiaochun looked at Mother-in-law Wu and asked for her opinion.
"Since it's given to you, just keep it." Granny Wu's eyes flashed, but she didn't refuse directly.
Lu Xiaochun then happily put it away, took another look at the yard, and said quickly, "I'll take it home for my mother-in-law."
Qi Huilan pushed the bicycle out and handed Lu Xiaochun a cloth bag for her to put her things in.
Lu Xiaochun put the things into a bag, hung it on the handlebars of the bicycle, and then took Grandma Wu away.
She first took Grandma Wu to the state-owned restaurant to buy ten meat buns before riding her bike back to the village.
Granny Wu was holding a meat bun and said unhappily from behind, "You are such a real girl. When people told you to buy buns, you bought them. These meat buns are so expensive."
Lu Xiaochun said nothing and walked Grandma Wu home. He put down all her things and turned around to leave.
"Come back." Granny Wu handed Lu Xiaochun some buns: "Eat the buns before you go. It won't take a little while longer."
"I don't want to eat it. Leave it for you to eat slowly, mother-in-law." Lu Xiaochun shook his head and refused to take the bun.
"There are so many buns, how can I finish them all? Eat them now while they are still hot." Granny Wu glared at Lu Xiaochun and stuffed the buns directly into her mouth: "Just eat when I tell you to, why are you so talkative."
Lu Xiaochun's eyes were a little wet, and she wiped away the tears while lowering her head.
"Mother-in-law, can you help Sister Mengmeng? My mother said that you delivered twins, and the babies are all alive and growing up well." Lu Xiaochun asked, looking up after eating half of a bun.
"You girl, aren't you just working for others for a few days? Why are you interfering in other people's childbirth?" Grandma Wu ate buns and did not answer Lu Xiaochun.
Lu Xiaochun didn't even eat the buns anymore. He went to pour water for Grandma Wu and put some of the brown sugar that Qi Huilan had given him into the water.
Granny Wu took the brown sugar water, took a sip and continued eating the buns.
Lu Xiaochun stamped her feet and said, "Mother-in-law, I know you can definitely help Sister Mengmeng give birth to her baby smoothly. My mother said that you know medical skills."
As he spoke, Lu Xiaochun lowered his voice a lot and looked outside.
Grandma Wu glared at her for a few times, and Lu Xiaochun quickly smiled ingratiatingly and put the brown sugar water near Grandma Wu's mouth.
Granny Wu took a sip of water, and Lu Xiaochun immediately said, "Granny, you ate the meat buns that Sister Mengmeng sent you, and you also drank the brown sugar water. You have to help her."
"Girl, which side are you from?" Grandma Wu stretched out her index finger and tapped Lu Xiaochun's forehead.
"Mother-in-law, after my mother passed away, apart from you and my sister, only Sister Mengmeng treated me well. She let me take her place and gave me half of the ticket. Many people took her place but only got paid but not tickets. I went to clean Mengmeng's house and Sister Mengmeng even invited me to dinner."
Lu Xiaochun's voice became choked with sobs as he spoke.
Granny Wu sighed, "Child, you are too grateful."
"Mother-in-law." Lu Xiaochun looked at Mother-in-law Wu with pleading eyes.
Granny Wu lowered her head to eat the buns and didn't say anything until she had eaten three buns. Then she said, "Xiaochun, I haven't treated patients for many years. I don't even know if I can diagnose accurately. I am just a midwife now."
Nowadays, everyone is seeing Western medicine. Doctors who know Chinese medicine dare not treat patients for fear of being reported.
Granny Wu makes a living by delivering babies and doesn't want to cause trouble.
Lu Xiaochun understood what Granny Wu meant. She opened her mouth but didn't say any more words of pleading. She silently ate half of the bun in her hand, then said something to Granny Wu and rode away on her bicycle.
Granny Wu originally wanted Lu Xiaochun to take some things away, but Lu Xiaochun walked so fast that she couldn't catch up with him, so she could only carry all the things back.
Lu Xiaochun knew what Grandma Wu was worried about, but she felt that Qi Mengmeng was not that kind of person, otherwise Qi Mengmeng would not have given her the job out of pity for her.
She asked her sister, Qi Mengmeng has a remote relationship with their family.
But since Lu Xiaolan came to him and begged, Qi Mengmeng still agreed to let her take his shift, and she did so for several months. Lu Xiaochun kept this favor in his heart.
Lu Xiaochun was thinking about how to talk to Grandma Wu so that she would agree to deliver Qi Mengmeng's baby.
Qi Huilan and Qi Mengmeng were also discussing this matter.
"Mengmeng, what do you think? How about we ask Granny Wu to deliver the baby?" Qi Huilan said, then shook her head, "No, what if she can't deliver the baby?"
Qi Huilan was worried that she would encounter problems that she couldn't handle if she asked Grandma Wu to deliver the baby. She had the same concerns when she asked Grandma Wu to deliver the baby.
At this moment, Qi Huilan began to regret why Qi Mengmeng was pregnant with twins? A single pregnancy might not have this risk.
Qi Mengmeng was at a loss for the moment, but she was not as anxious as Qi Huilan.
"Mom, Granny Wu just taught me a few positions. She said if I keep doing them, the baby's position might change. Let her come and check it out after the Chinese New Year. If there's no problem, we'll go to the hospital to give birth."
As a member of the generation that grew up under the red flag, Qi Mengmeng prefers to give birth in the hospital, as she feels it is safer and more comfortable.
Because he was worried about the baby in Qi Mengmeng's belly, Qi Zhijun was scolded by Qi Huilan when he came to see Qi Mengmeng again.
Qi Zhijun was a little confused.
"Meng Meng, what happened to your mother?"
Qi Mengmeng smiled bitterly: "My mother is worried that something might happen to me."
She repeated what Dr. Feng and Grandma Wu said.
Qi Zhijun thought about it and agreed with Qi Mengmeng that they could ask Dr. Feng and Grandma Wu to see the baby at the same time and then send the baby to the hospital when the baby is due.
"I'm leaving tomorrow. I'll leave you an address. If Mengmeng wants to give birth, you can go and borrow their car."
Qi Zhijun wrote an address and left it for Qi Huilan. He was worried that Qi Mengmeng would need a car when she gave birth, so he had already told his comrades in advance.
Qi Huilan has also been thinking about this problem recently. Qi Mengmeng's belly is so big now. When she gives birth, if there is no car, she can only be taken to the hospital by a cart.
Qi Zhijun has solved a big problem.
