Chapter 73 Production
Since the county magistrate distributed Baitaotao's proposal to every village in Baitang County, the effect has been obvious.
After all, everyone basically knows it well, and would rather believe it or not.
Those who did not lack money basically did not sell the grain. Except for some whose families were really in difficulty, the only way to buy cotton was to sell the grain and then sell the grain.
In just a few days, there were only a few villagers selling grain, but more and more people were buying cotton, and the cotton market became increasingly tense.
It's a pity that Qu Shangtou left early for the north after getting the peanuts in advance. Otherwise, he might have been able to sell his cotton directly in Baitang County.
But it doesn't matter if there is no music dealer, and if Baitaotao takes action, then there is no need to worry about the common people not being able to buy cotton.
During the few days before she gave birth, she would release a batch of cotton to the black market every day.
But it won’t be too much, just enough to meet the needs of the people in Baitang County.
Now she is familiar with Shopkeeper Fan from the black market. The black market never cares about who they are trading with, let alone the origin of the other party's goods. They have only one purpose, which is to make money as long as they have the goods.
Only in this way could Bai Taotao dare to trade with them with confidence.
In mid-October, the weather that was just a little cool suddenly suddenly cooled down a lot.
As soon as they finished their winter planting, the villagers put their baskets on their backs and headed into the mountains to pick something called cattail sticks.
The bulrush wadding that is picked and rubbed can be made into a quilt after being cleaned.
Every year, villagers use such cattail sticks to make quilts for the winter.
This year, because of the county magistrate's words, although everyone has prepared some cotton to make quilts, the villagers still will not let go of the gifts given by the mountains every year.
What's more, the sudden drop in temperature made everyone believe the county magistrate's words even more. The more things to keep warm in the winter, the better.
If there are not enough quilts, prepare some more cattail quilts and firewood is also good.
Most of the young women and men in the family are working for Baitaotao, and the work of picking cattail sticks is left to the old ladies of each family. The grandfathers are also not idle, and are responsible for going up the mountain to chop firewood.
Firewood is also a good thing to keep warm when the weather gets cold.
At noon that day, the villagers had lunch and were preparing to go up the mountain together. Bai Taotao was preparing to go back to her room to take a nap, but as soon as she walked to the door of the room, she felt pain in her stomach.
At first she thought it was an illusion and stood there for a while, but soon her stomach began to hurt more and more.
Bai Taotao knew medicine, so she immediately took her pulse calmly and calmly. After taking her pulse, she calmly ordered Aunt Jin who had been standing by to guard her.
"Mom Jin, go boil the water and prepare things."
When Bai Taotao said this, Aunt Tan who came out of the kitchen happened to hear it. Naturally, she knew that her wife was about to give birth, so she hurriedly said: "I will do the work of boiling the water. Aunt Jin, just take care of my wife's delivery." That’s it.”
As she spoke, Grandma Tan went back to the kitchen to boil water.
Aunt Jin helped Bai Taotao back to the room.
After returning to the room, Bai Taotao endured the pain and said, "Don't worry about lying down now. You can walk more now. Aunt Jin, please support me and help me walk."
Bai Taotao was obviously in pain and was already sweating, but in order to give birth smoothly later, she could only bear to move around more.
"Madam, why don't you wait until the pain subsides for a while before leaving? When it hurts, just lie down for a while."
Bai Taotao thought about it and felt that what Aunt Jin said was feasible. At this moment, she was really in pain and couldn't walk.
When she sat back down on the bed, she felt pain all over her body from the contractions.
"Madam, why don't you lie down? You can relax as long as you lie down." Seeing Bai Taotao in pain, Aunt Jin also felt distressed. Although they and Bai Taotao are masters and servants, Bai Taotao treats them like family members, so seeing Bai Taotao in such pain, they naturally feel distressed.
Bai Taotao looked at Aunt Jin and said slowly: "It's okay, I can still hold on."
The pain lasted for a while, and then it gradually became less painful. Bai Taotao walked around the room with the support of Aunt Jin.
When the contractions started to become frequent, Bai Taotao took her own pulse to make sure that the cervix was almost dilated, and then she lay back on the bed.
Before giving birth, Bai Taotao originally thought to hold back, stop yelling, and save some strength to give birth later, but when the contractions hurt for a while, she endured it for a while, and waited for her to lie down When she was preparing to give birth on the bed, she couldn't help but scream.
"Ah~~~"
In this world, she has delivered babies to many expectant mothers. She also advises expectant mothers to shout less and use more force during delivery, so as to save the energy from shouting for childbirth.
But most mothers-to-be can't control their shouting. They feel that the more they shout, the harder they shout, as if it's a rhythm.
Bai Taotao finally realized it now.
She felt like she couldn't exert her strength unless she shouted. The louder she shouted, the easier it seemed to be to exert more effort.
Of course, it varies from person to person, and some people give birth faster than others. What she is saying now is just her personal feeling.
"Ah~~~~"
"Ah~~~~"
"Ah~~~~"
Bai Taotao's rhythmic shouting was drowned out by the other. When the villagers heard this sound, they immediately understood that this was the birth of Youyi's wife.
The villagers quickly dropped what they were doing and came to see if they could help.
But when they arrived in front of Baitaotao's house, they realized that they didn't need their help at all.
Aunt Tan has prepared everything, and Aunt Jin is in the room with the baby.
In the end, everyone had to wait outside Bai Taotao's room.
Then everyone stared at Bai Taotao's door and looked in.
At this moment, Aunt Ge couldn't see what was going on inside for a long time. Then she turned around and saw a familiar figure walking this way. Aunt Ge, who didn't react at first, thought she had seen a ghost in broad daylight. , suddenly frightened, his feet became weak and he sat down on the ground.
But when Chen Youyi walked towards here step by step, she realized that this was not Youyi's soul, but Youyi was really back.
"You...youyi...youyi, you...you are back..."
Although she knew that Youyi was really back, because of the fright just now, Aunt Ge still couldn't control the trembling in her voice when she opened her mouth.
But she didn't know whether she was more frightened or excited. Anyway, as soon as she finished speaking, two lines of cold tears fell down her face.
Several villagers who were still looking at Bai Taotao's room thought that Aunt Ge was talking nonsense in broad daylight, and were about to turn around and scold her, but the next second everyone saw Chen Youyi standing behind them, and they were all shocked. .
Fortunately, it was broad daylight, otherwise the villagers would have been frightened and fainted.
"Are...you have perseverance? Are you really perseverant? Do you live with perseverance?" Aunt Luo was more courageous than Aunt Ge. She quickly reacted after being startled, and then squeezed Chen Youyi's arm. Although he had already confirmed that this was a living person, he still couldn't help but ask two questions about his soul.
