1980s: Sickly educated youth raising children in the countryside

Chapter 393 Production
Lin Zhenzhen actually got three pounds of chicken feet.

After I got it back, I made boneless chicken feet according to the recipe Song Wei gave me.

Marinate overnight and you can eat it the next day.

Song Wei took a bite and immediately fell in love with the sour and slightly spicy taste.

"good to eat!"

Lin Pingan also likes to eat.

"Chicken feet can be made into such delicious food, sister-in-law, you really know a lot!"

Lin Zhen also ate some and had to admit that it tasted really good.

"Don't eat too much, I made it for your sister-in-law."

Lin Pingan nodded sensibly.

"I know."

Song Wei: "Eat it if you want to. You can just make it next time."

Lin Pingan and Lin Zhen ate a little in a restrained manner, leaving most of it for Song Wei.

Now Song Wei has more snacks to pass the time, and Lin Zhen makes her some cakes, biscuits, and persimmon cakes from time to time.

The persimmons are wild persimmons found in the woods. Those that are not ripe and soft are peeled and made into persimmon cakes, which are just right for eating now.

But she can't eat too much.

So another two months passed.

After the Little New Year, it was Song Wei's due date.

Lin Zhen was worried and wanted to send the woman to the hospital to give birth.

But the snow outside was too thick and the road was difficult to walk on.

Song Wei: "Let's find a midwife."

With such thick snow, giving birth might be dangerous if I don’t go to the hospital, but going to the hospital is also risky.

Even if you are riding a tractor, the snow is so thick that the tractor will easily slip or get stuck in the snow and be unable to move.

It would be really dangerous if she couldn't bear the bumpy ride before we even get to the hospital.

Helplessly, Lin Zhen could only think of a way to invite the best midwife to live in his house first, so that Song Wei could have the midwife by her side at any time when she gave birth.

The captain couldn't do anything about going outside.

The snow was so heavy during this period that their vegetables could not be transported out.

Lin Zhen was so anxious that his mouth was covered with blisters and his eye sockets were dark.

Song Wei looked at him with amusement: "Are you going to give birth to the baby or am I going to give birth to the baby? Elder Ji checked my pulse and said that the baby is fine and there should be no risk of dystocia."

Lin Zhen: "I just feel uneasy."

As she was talking, Song Wei suddenly felt a sharp pain in her stomach.

But the pain was mild and she could bear it.

The next second, I felt something flowing out from below.

"Lin Zhen, I... seem to be giving birth."

Lin Zhen suddenly panicked, quickly picked up the person and rushed into the room.

"Lin Ping'an, quickly bring Granny Liu over here, your sister-in-law is about to give birth!"

The midwife was already prepared, and immediately followed him to the room upon hearing this.

"Grandma Liu, please come and see how my wife is doing."

"It's just the beginning, there's no need to panic. Go and boil some water. I'll wash my hands first."

After all, Granny Liu had experience, and she quickly began to give orders in an orderly manner.

"I'll go boil some water."

The person who spoke was Lin Dayou.

Knowing that this period was Song Wei's due date, their family would come to Lin Zhen's house every day to sit and help out.

That would help.

Lin Zhen did not leave, even when the midwife urged him to.

He held Song Wei's hand beside the bed.

"I won't leave. I'll stay here. If you feel any pain, just bite me. I'm not afraid of being bitten because I have a lot of flesh." Granny Liu: …………

"Are you stupid? Prepare a clean towel for her. Biting your hard arm is not as comfortable as biting a soft towel."

Song Wei fully agreed with this.

"I'm not in that much pain yet, don't be nervous."

Lin Zhen: "I'm not nervous."

But when I went to get the towel, I used the same hands and feet.

Song Wei was amused by what she saw.

When I smiled, I felt a stomachache.

"Hurry, hurry, the cervix has opened, get ready to deliver the baby. Song Zhiqing, follow me and calm your breathing. Don't shout too much at the beginning, or you will run out of strength later."

Granny Liu gave orders calmly. Lin Zhen, a grown man, had a blank mind at the moment and could do nothing but hold Song Wei's hand.

But he didn't dare go out, he had to make sure everyone was safe.

Song Wei's life was filled with only two hours of trouble.

I have to say it, giving birth is really fucking painful!
It hurts more than getting cut by a knife!

Song Wei bit the soft cloth, and her neatly trimmed nails scratched several cuts on Lin Zhen's arm.

Lin Zhen endured it without saying a word, just looking at Song Wei with more and more heartache.

Why can't men take over the pain of giving birth?

"It's out, it's out, the first baby is out, it's a boy!"

At this moment, Lin Zhen had no time to take care of the child. Aunt Xinghua wiped the child clean and wrapped him in a swaddle.

"This baby is so pretty!"

Aunt Xinghua looked at it with great interest.

The first baby came out smoothly, and the second one followed quickly.

Both births were natural, but Song Wei felt a little weak after giving birth.

"This is also a little boy!"

Twins, two boys.

They were all cleaned and wrapped in swaddling clothes.

Aunt Xinghua held the child and brought him to her side.

"Song Wei, look quickly, both of your sons are so handsome!"

Song Wei supported her tired body and looked at it. Uh...

"Why is it a bit ugly?"

That shouldn't be the case. Neither she nor Lin Zhen are ugly.

Aunt Xinghua didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "All children are like this. How can their skin not be wrinkled after being soaked in amniotic fluid? It will be fine after the skin opens up for a while. You two babies are growing up well, white and clean, not red at all. Many newborn babies have red and wrinkled skin, which is not as good-looking as this."

Hearing this, Song Wei felt relieved.

"I'll take a nap."

After saying that, she tilted her head and fell asleep leaning against the pillow.

Lin Zhen was frightened.

He even carefully placed his finger under her nose, and only after confirming that she was really just asleep did he breathe a sigh of relief.

Aunt Xinghua's eyelids were twitching because of the look on her face.

"What are you doing? You're fine. A woman who just gave birth must be tired and want to sleep, right?"

Lin Zhen nodded in a daze: "I know, thank you Aunt Xinghua."

He was just afraid.

He will never forget the scene when his mother gave birth to his younger brother with great heartbreak, and only weakly told him to take good care of his younger brother before her head tilted and she was completely dead.

Therefore, Lin Zhen was not afraid of getting hurt, or even dying.

But he was afraid that his wife would give birth to a child that would turn out to be like his mother.

Okay, okay, okay.

Lin Zhen held Song Wei's hand and tucked the quilt in for her.
