Chapter 164 They said it was fate
Chapter 164 They said it was fate
How can you just stop crying?
It is so difficult to raise a child in this day and age.
Liang Xinyue, who has raised Yaya and Xiaoer, knows that those two are still older children who can understand instructions.
Now a baby who is still breastfeeding is sent to us. How can we feed him?
Min Honglian also said:
"Xinyue, don't cry. You have to take care of yourself and your child first, and then think about other things. You were too excited today, and I'm afraid it's not good for the child. You should calm down first."
What Min Honglian and Zou Wenqing said made sense. Liang Xinyue herself understood these principles, but understanding was one thing, and what she should do was another.
It’s heartbreaking to think about it.
Unexpectedly, Liu Jinxiu came all the way here to bully her.
To be honest, when Liang Xinyue saw Liu Jinxiu, she felt an instinctive fear. If they hadn't forced her into a corner, she wouldn't have been able to fight back.
As they were trying to persuade her, Sister Fu, who was holding the child and couldn't throw him down, was helpless. The child kept crying and crying.
It was Tian Mingfang who came over and said:
"Give it to me and let me feed her. Anyway, my daughter has started to eat porridge now, and she still has some milk left."
Tian Mingfang took the child and went back to her home to feed him. The child had never had breast milk since birth.
But after taking a mouthful of milk, he started to suck it in big gulps.
This is human nature.
Tian Mingfang didn't have much milk. She was still not full from one side, so she fed the other side, and milk started to flow out of the corners of this guy's mouth. But she still refused to let go.
That feeling of being extremely hungry and instinctively wanting to protect your own granary.
Tian Mingfang found a few small clothes that Wang Ju couldn't wear at home and held them in her arms. Then she took the child out while burping him.
Fu Chunhua, Sister Yang, Xiao Shun and others were surrounding Political Commissar Xu and Gu Sanding and talking about the past of Captain Zhou's family.
I heard Gu Sanding punch the wall:
"How can the captain have such a mother? Is she his real mother?"
Political Commissar Xu sighed and said:
"Eat all kinds of grains and feed all kinds of people. Who would have thought that Lao Tong's family was such a family, and Liang Xinyue, such a smart girl, was almost forced to death by them."
"Yes, on the day we recruited the soldiers, we originally asked the regiment commander to send him back the next day, but he said he remembered the way. If he hadn't returned that night, his wife would have drowned. He would have to bear the reputation of a widower when he returned."
Sister Yang laughed and said:
"Xinyue sister is so good, this is what we call destiny, this couple is arranged by God, everything is just perfect."
When Political Commissar Xu saw the child Tian Mingfang brought out, he sighed and said:
"It seems that this child has to stay. I'm just afraid that Xiao Liang may not be able to accept it."
Fu Chunhua also said:
"No one would accept such a thing. This child's mother has bullied Xinyue a lot."
As she spoke, Fu Chunhua took the sleeping child and said:
"Look, this child is so skinny, and he's almost six months old, but I think he's no better than a two-month-old. It's not certain whether he can be raised to life."
"Xinyue has a lot of things to do next. I heard that she wants to study and take exams. Now it's good that she is going to give birth to another one. What should I do?"
Sister Yang smiled and said:
"It's not difficult. I did the same thing before. I carried two children on one shoulder and went up the mountain to dig the ground and carry manure. But my two children were fine. They never had any crippling (meaning illness or any accident) since they were young."
"Besides, we have people like us helping each other. Once the three cold and three hot seasons are over, it will be easier to take care of the child."
"The difficulty now is that if Xinyue doesn't want to accept the child and the team leader decides to keep the child, the couple will probably have a conflict."
What Sister Yang said is the truth.
Everyone was silent.
This is hard to persuade.
Political Commissar Xu thought for a moment and said:
"Xiao Fu, go check on Xiao Liang and see what she thinks."
Xiao Shun said:
"Don't worry, my sister-in-law will raise the child. My two sisters-in-law have already raised the child, not to mention the younger one. She doesn't care about the child's parents, she just feels sorry for the child."
Sister Yang sighed. Actually, she knew that Liang Xinyue could only take this child. Now that the other two were sent away, what else could she say?
Sister Yang took the child and whispered:
“So light.”
Tian Mingfang said:
"This child has never had milk. I can help feed him some milk from now on, but it may not be enough. Juer needs to eat at night, but she eats during the day."
Although Wang Ju was already one year and five months old, Tian Mingfang thought that she had nothing to do, so she had no intention of weaning the child. She just added some porridge to the child's food. Therefore, the child almost did not drink milk during the day.
Fu Chunhua turned around and came to Liang Xinyue, sat down beside the bed and persuaded her:
"Sister, we all know your difficulties. But now the leader has sent the mother and child away. But we still have to take in the child who is left behind."
"Tsk tsk, you don't know, that family is so heartless, the child is so skinny, I'm afraid he only weighs a few pounds, just skin and bones."
"Do you still remember how Yaya looked when she first came here? She was even worse than Yaya. I was... I was worried that I couldn't support her."
Fu Chunhua did not avoid this matter and said it directly when she came:
"Don't worry, sister. We are all here to help you. We will help you if we can. The children can also help. You should take care of your health first."
"You always call me Sister Fu, Sister Fu. I promise you that if you don't want to take her with you one night, you can always leave her to me. Really. I'll take two, or three."
"I will help if I can, but then again, this child is still young and can't remember anything yet. If you start raising him now, you can still support the family. Don't bring him back to them in the future."
Liang Xinyue's head came out of the quilt, still sobbing.
Fu Chunhua helped wipe away the tears and said:
"Don't cry. I'm telling you, some things are destined. You said that last year the leader didn't go back, but the child was still yours in the end. Her mother died giving birth to her, but she didn't die because she wanted to follow you. The King of Hell had arranged it, there's no mistake about it."
Zou Wenqing didn't believe those statements at first, but suddenly added:
"Sister-in-law, when we were standing aside, we heard the leader's brother say that they had thought about killing the child several times but failed. Maybe, they really have to hand him over to you."
Liang Xinyue suddenly thought of how she got here, and sat up suddenly. Could this child also be a soul that traveled through time and space? Did he know how to avoid immortality?
My dear children: I need to clarify the situation here, please don’t criticize me for keeping this child.
If you ask older people, you will know that in those days, such things really existed. If a family had two sons and one of them had no children, the other family would adopt the son or give birth to a child to carry on the family line.
When Zhang Lianhua was pregnant with this child, Zhou Guoliang had not returned yet, and he really wanted to continue the family line for Liang Xinyue. But everyone seemed to feel aggrieved for Liang Xinyue.
This arrangement in the novel is suitable for that era and is different from the present era.
Please understand!
