Chapter 144

Giving birth is really a big deal of energy. Chen Xuan has always thought that she is in excellent health. Since giving birth to a daughter, she has been particularly sleepy. In the morning, she took her daughter to sleep again. To be honest, this little girl is also strange, not like those naughty children who make trouble. Generally speaking, there are only two situations that she will cry, one is hungry and the other is peeing.

Wei Jin came over and looked at his niece, and once he looked at him, he would praise him, "The eyebrows and eyes are getting more and more like me." Chen Xuan heard it and felt that the child was giving birth to an average child for his elder sister. Wei Jin not only praised him verbally, but also expressed his actions that he secretly gave Chen Xuan a gold lock film, but he didn't let Chen Xuan say it out, because when Yun Jie'er was born, Wei Jin only gave him a silver lock film. They were all nieces, so Wei Jin certainly wanted to show a bowl of water to serve him smoothly, but when Wei Jin said that she prefers a little girl who looks more like her, and felt that the little girl was blessed.

Wei Jin gave it to him quietly, and Axuan quietly accepted it. When he talked to Brother A Nian in the evening, Wei Nian laughed, "Don't talk about this." In addition to his love for his daughter, the eldest sister should also be moved by the Strawberry Technology.

Chen Xuan showed Wei Nian the golden lock film, so she helped her daughter put it away, "When we are older, we will wear it for her."

Wei Nian responded and came over to see his daughter, and praised her every time, "Look at how handsome our daughter is."

Chen Xuan also said, "I didn't look very good when I was born. After a few days of growth, I feel that our Axin is becoming more and more attractive."

"Who said it's not good-looking? There are also people who are more handsome than our daughter?" Wei Nian touched the soft cheeks of her little daughter and muttered, "Dad's little heart, when will you call him dad?"

Chen Xuan felt that her brother A Nian tended to be crazy. The child would always be one year old when he spoke.

Of course, everyone in the family likes her daughter very much, and Chen Xuan was very happy. Although Chen Xuan asked Li about the tricks of having a son secretly, of course, Chen Xuan asked Li quietly about this matter. Although Li couldn't tell the reason, Li took the course of pregnancy and giving birth. It depends on the will of God, and there is no secret recipe. Chen Xuan still felt strange. She obviously liked to eat sour food when she was pregnant. She always thought it was her son, but she actually gave birth to a daughter.

Li was worried that she would be disappointed in giving birth to a daughter, so he comforted Chen Xuan, "The son and daughter are the same. I told me that the first one is the daughter, so I can take care of my younger brothers in the future."

Chen Xuan's eyebrows and eyes were soft, "Sister-in-law, Sister-in-law is my first child, and I love her very much. That's the same. Although we are talking about equality between men and women, it is harder for women to behave and do things than men. When Sister-in-law is older, I have to tell her to let her work hard, maybe she has to work harder than her brothers."

Li sighed, "If we women, it is easy to live a confused life, but it will be difficult to live a clear life."

Chen Xuan felt that Li said this, and thought that Wei Shi had very few letters since he went outside the pass, and he had never returned home during the Chinese New Year. He also thought about Wei Nian's speculation about Wei Shi, that nothing happened to Wei Shi outside the pass in his previous life, and Wei Shi should have come back soon.

The sister-in-law said something. After a while, Wang Damei brought the cooked eggs and fried sesame salt. Li asked Chen Xuan to have a meal, so she went to the kitchen to help. In the afternoon, Li had to go to the lace factory.

Chen Xuan was in confinement. The staple food for three meals a day was various eggs, boiled eggs, steamed eggs, spread eggs, sugar-water eggs, and sesame salt. Chen Xuan had at least six eggs for a meal. Eggs were eaten at home, and Mrs. Wei whispered to her eldest daughter in private, "There are eighteen eggs a day. Logically, these eggs should be given to her parents. If you say that your second brother and sister don't have a mother's home, we have to leave them."

Wei Jin said, "Didn't you know that she has no parents' home the first day? If you say no, that's not. Why didn't you? The uncle and aunt who stole clothes and asked the second brother and sister to recover it was her parents' home! But you dare to send a message to them about the second brother and sister giving birth to a child. They just brought eggs and gave you one, but you wouldn't steal three of you!"

"I just said this. When it comes to my parents' home, it's better for Brother Jie to be more maternal."

"That's right, my uncle's family is holding a treasure. When the eldest brother and sister were confinement, the Wang uncle always bought hundreds of eggs every time. He was really a decent person."

"Yes. In this regard, Sister Xin is not as blessed as Brother Jie."

"Each of them has their own blessings. The second brother and sister are so capable. In the past two years, they have made a lot of money for our family. They can also open a store. What's the point of having a mother's family?"

"That's right." Old Mrs. Wei was in a good mood when she thought about how to grow strawberries and earn money. So she became generous and waved her hand, "Eating eggs is also for the sake of our old Wei family's breastfeeding children! Eat it! Take care of it! Our family can afford to eat as much as we eat!"

Chen Xuan has never opened her eggs like this in her two lives, not only to take care of them enough, but also to be full. Although in recent years, Chen Xuan and Wei Nian have lived a good life in Wangfucang Hutong, and they have meat dishes to eat at any meal. But in Chen Xuan's heart, eggs are still an excellent and nourishing food. In their hometown, even if the landlord's wife is confinement, she has never given her eggs like this. Many families have two eggs at a meal, and the rest are white flour steamed buns. Some white flour steamed buns are not enough, and they have to add some corn flour or two-mix and three-mix steamed buns to eat. Where is her current conditions? Eat eggs every day.

When she was going to go, Chen Xuan was sure she couldn't bear it. However, now she still had to feed her children. Only when she was in good health could she be well. Besides, Chen Xuan's current thinking has changed compared to before. She would have to study many books in the future and go abroad to go to college. If she wanted to become a knowledgeable person, her ideal was a first-level professor. Whether she was doing things or doing research, she had to have a good body. In this way, Chen Xuan would not be polite in food.

Even the milk she ordered was served, she drank it without falling down.

Speaking of milk setting, Wei Nian is a new-style person. Since Chen Xuan was pregnant, Wei Nian started to make milk. Both the couple had to drink it in the morning. Wei Nian is a filial person, so he ordered a portion for each of the old house. Old Mrs. Wei couldn't drink it even if she died. In the words of Old Mrs. Wei, "How many years have you been weaned? Why are you drinking milk again at the age of a handful of age?"

Wei Yin said, "There are also double-skin milk sellers outside. Mom, you are also good to drink."

"That's snack, can it be the same as this?" Anyway, Mrs. Wei never drinks this fresh milk when she dies. Mr. Wei doesn't like drinking it very much. The old man prefers corn porridge in the morning and evening.

Others are different. Everyone else drinks milk. Wei Yin and Wei Nian are both foreign styles. As for Li, Li has always been gentle and cherishes things very much. My brother-in-law has ordered it for everyone. Li has never bought milk, but he also knows that drinking it every day is not a small expense. If the people are settled, then just drink it. As for the children, they all go to the primary school of the church, and it is not rare for the breakfast of the students to be milk bread. Therefore, the breakfast and dinner of the Wei family became a mix of milk and corn porridge.

In Chen Xuan, it is milk, egg, sesame salt.

Sometimes, Chen Xuan feels that such a good life is like a dream.

This is a life that she never dared to imagine for many years in the past. Even in her dream, she dared not hope for.

It turns out that as long as you let go of your hands and work hard for yourself, you can have such a life.

Chen Xuan poked her daughter's little dumb face and said softly, "My little girl, you have to work hard in the future." She has to work hard for herself and work hard for her ideals, rather than being in the position of assisting men, and silently dedicating to other people's ideals for the rest of her life. That is certainly a great thing, but it is no longer the spirit that women in the new era advocate. Chen Xuan is glad that her little girl was born in this era when women put themselves and men on the balance of equality for the first time. Although there is still a long way to go for men and women to be completely equal, this is an excellent start after all, isn't it?

Chen Xuan looked at her daughter and couldn't love her. After taking care of the child for a few days, Chen Xuan had experience. When the little girl frowned and curled her lips, Chen Xuan knew whether she was hungry or was pulled. She immediately fed her breasts or changed her diapers, and she couldn't bear to let her daughter howl more. Even Old Lady Wei praised Chen Xuan for taking care of the child well and was able to take care of her.

In this regard, Mrs. Wei has the capital to brag, and said to her in-law Mrs. Zhao, who was talking to her in-laws, said, "This is not my big talk. My two wives, together with A Jin, will take care of the children. Some little moon children are both sting and urinating, and they are smelly. As long as we little girls pull, her mother will wash her butt immediately and slap the prickly heat powder, which is very clean."

Old Mrs. Zhao said, "As a mother, you can clean up, so the children will be affordable."

"Isn't that true?" Old Mrs. Wei smiled.

Old Mrs. Wei raised six children in her life, and the first two died. Only after Wei Jin was the first child to stay. The children after Wei Jin were raised safely. Therefore, among the children, Old Mrs. Wei prefers boys over girls, because Old Mrs. Wei firmly believes that Wei Jin is a lucky daughter. With Wei Jin, his younger brothers and sisters are safe. Of course, Wei Jin looks more like her and is also true.

Therefore, due to historical reasons and appearance reasons, Old Lady Wei also loves Wei Xin's little granddaughter. There is one thing that Old Lady Wei is not very satisfied. She felt that Wei Xin's name was not very good. Old Lady Wei said to her eldest daughter, "What is the word "Xin"? If you want me to say, if you don't call it Wei Qian, just call it Zhaodi, it's a good meaning."

Wei Jin agreed with her mother's aesthetics and took a pink and red peach from Tongxian from the blue and white porcelain plate and took a bite, "Yes, it's good to call money, and you'll have wealth in your destiny. It's good to call Zhaodier. Now there's a little girl, and you'll have a son in the next child."

"Yes, I also think these two names are better than Wei Xin. I will change the name before I even registered my child."

"I'm afraid A Nian is not happy."

Old Mrs. Wei said with confidence, "We are all trying to give the little girl a good name, what's wrong with you?"

Old Mrs. Wei personally told her second son. When Wei Nian heard this, she said, "What the hell is Wei Qian? There is also Zhao Di'er, who is so rusty! Nine of the ten daughters are called Zhao Di'er. Why do I call my daughter this divine name?" Before Wei Nian finished commenting, she asked the old lady to scold her.

Old Mrs. Wei scolded her second son, "You know nothing! You know nothing!"

Because her son was ungrateful, Mrs. Wei felt that she had good intentions and did not entrust her to others. So Mrs. Wei decided to talk about this with her second daughter-in-law Chen Xuan. As a result, before she could talk about it, her reputation could not be changed. Because it is said that Mr. Wen's wife, who is particularly famous in the cultural circle, came to visit the mother and the child!

Chen Xuan didn't expect Mrs. Wen would come here in person. Mrs. Wen was wearing a light purple printed cheongsam with a white round pearl necklace on her neck. She was not dressed up in a gorgeous way, but the gentle and beautiful bookish spirit on her body was so embarrassed that she didn't know where to put her hands and feet, let alone talk. Wei Jin didn't know Mrs. Wen either. Mrs. Wen smiled and introduced herself, "Hello, old lady, my husband's surname is Wen. Axuan often went to my place to attend the salon. I heard the second girl in the house say that she was born, so I came to visit her."

Old Mrs. Wei was not used to dealing with new-style women like Mrs. Wen. Wei Jin was younger and reacted quickly. He quickly said, "It's Mrs. Wen, please sit down quickly. The second brother and sister are in the confinement period, please wait." He directly called Mrs. Wen to Chen Xuan's house in the backyard.

Chen Xuan was talking to the little girl softly and chanting a poem to the little girl, "Since ancient times, I have been sad and lonely in autumn. I said that autumn is better than spring. A crane radiates on the clouds in the clear sky, which leads the poetic feelings to the blue sky."

Mrs. Wen smiled and Wei Jin asked Mrs. Wen to go in and said embarrassedly, "I said my second brother and sister are too anxious. The little girl is not yet full moon, so she saw the sky's poems and said foreign articles to the little girl."

Chen Xuan was surprised to see Mrs. Wen. She was playing with her daughter by leaning against the quilt. She suddenly saw Mrs. Wen. She was very surprised and kept saying, "Madam, why are you here?"

"I heard from A Yin that you have given birth, come and see you. You'll sit down." Mrs. Wen sat on the edge of the kang. Big Sister Wang brought tea. Mrs. Wen took a few sips and put it on the small kang table. Seeing that the house was not big and was tidy, there was a unique milk fragrance in the room. Mrs. Wen looked at the little girl and smiled, "This child is so white."

"This is like Brother A Nian, born white." Chen Xuan, who has always been modest, couldn't help but proudly praise her little daughter, "If she looks like me, it will be dark."

"It's good like you." Mrs. Wen looked at the child and asked Chen Xuan's body, what she usually eats.

Chen Xuan said, "I can eat eggs at home and drink milk every day. I have gained weight."

Chen Xuan is indeed fat, and she becomes slightly round when she is pregnant. She has good nourishment during the confinement period, and her skin has a healthy light powder, and it is difficult to describe a good complexion for cosmetics. As long as she sees Chen Xuan, she knows that she has lived a very good life.

"We need to take good care of our children during the confinement period, both for the children and for our own body." When Mrs. Wen saw the little girl awake, her eyes would look at people with gurgling sounds. She was so lively that she couldn't help but ask, "What's the name of the child?"

"Call Wei Xin, the heart of the heart."

Mrs. Wen laughed and said, "What a good name."

"Brother A Nian chose more than a hundred names, and he chose this one." Since he had a daughter, Chen Xuan had a disease called "Showing". She especially likes to show off her daughter and husband to others, wanting people to know how good she is, how good her daughter is, and how much she loves her little daughter. Although she knows that this is not good, she just can't help it.

Mrs. Wen couldn't help laughing and saw the wonderful wedding photos of the two on the wall. Chen Xuan in the photo was well-proportioned and elegant, with a little restrained, and shy joy between her eyebrows and eyes. In a blink of an eye, she became a mother. Next to the photo was the ideal frame for the two. Mrs. Wen smiled and said to Chen Xuan, "Don't be too anxious to study, you must have a good rest during the confinement period."

"Well, I didn't read books, and my elder sister-in-law's mother-in-law said reading during confinement was hurting my eyes. I was afraid of forgetting what I remembered before, so I would just chant it. It not only exercises memory, but also allows the little girl to listen to it. I will definitely be smarter than me when I grow up." Chen Xuan could chat with everyone, especially when talking about her daughter, she was quite rumored. The eyes looked at the children with soft and caring eyes, as if she looked at the most precious treasure in the world, and her voice was also soft, "I didn't feel this way before I was born. I believed that there was such a heartache in the world. Sometimes when I looked at our little girl, my heart seemed to be melting."

Mrs. Wen listened with a smile and said softly, "A mother's ten months of pregnancy and giving birth to children is something that others cannot understand. The mother's heart for her children is like this."

Chen Xuan nodded, agreeing with Mrs. Wen's words.

Mrs. Wen, although she was a new-style woman, came to visit the mother to bring something that was very consistent with the rules of old Beijing. She brought three-foot red cotton cloth, which was made for the children. There were also a box of eggs, which was used to replenish the mother's body, with a total of 600. After seeing it, Mrs. Wei said, "Now many new-school people don't understand the rules and don't talk about these old principles. Mrs. Wen is really worthy of being a knowledgeable person. She really pays attention to this gift when you see it."

Wei Jin also said, "Mrs. Wen is so arrogant, she looks like a person." He also said, "My second brother and sister don't talk much on weekdays, but she really can't help but know the wife of such a rich family."
