The ancient daily life of a farmer's daughter-in-law

Chapter 141

Li Qingnuan was concerned that the lochia on his body was still not clean, and he would smell blood when he lifted the quilt a little, so he didn't let Tian Tieshi go to the kang at all.Mrs. He obviously knew what her sister was thinking. Besides, she was also worried that her brother-in-law and her sister would not understand and do that kind of thing during the confinement period, so when she came to deliver the little clothes at night, she specially asked the two of them to talk.I could only hear Tian Tieshi panicking, not to mention sleeping together, even laying a bed on the floor was afraid of disturbing his wife's confinement.

At this time of year, even if the charcoal pots and kang holes are burned in the house, and thick mattresses are spread, the ground is still very cold.Li Qingnuan felt sorry for him and drove him to sleep in the west room.But the man who always followed his wife in every possible way, this time he got stuck in his neck and twisted his temper, trying to guard her desperately.

In the end, Li Qingnuan had no choice but to ask him to take out the waterproof blanket that had been stored in the west room and fold it in half under the quilt, and then pulled a big cotton jacket from the kang cabinet for him to use as a foot quilt, and then let the man get bored in the room .

This Dynasty also has the custom of washing the third day just like the Shang Dynasty. The so-called washing is to bathe the child three days after birth.Usually, it is presided over by the mother-in-law, the lucky woman or the elders of the family. Get a pot of water boiled with mugwort leaves, mix it with eggs, and wash the doll. Finally, roll an egg on the doll to remove dampness. healthy.Finally, the doll was dressed in new clothes and wrapped in new swaddling clothes to accept everyone's blessings.

If the family is well-off and likes to be lively, you can set up a few tables of noodles to make everyone in the village feel festive.

Li Qingnuan had asked He's before, and knew that this banquet was optional. If someone came to congratulate with an odd number of eggs, her family only needed to return a bowl of pasta.So when her man mentioned the three baptisms, she directly said to follow Dalang's original procedure.

Because he was still in confinement, Li Qingnuan couldn't leave the house, and it was difficult for outsiders to enter the house to get bad luck.So Xisan can only be arranged by Mrs. He and Aunt Liu.

No, Mrs. He picked up Mrs. Liu early in the morning of the third day to boil boiled eggs with mugwort leaves.When the sun rose high, many people also heard the good news and sent three or five eggs. Before leaving, they even said a few cheerful words to Tian Tieshi, who smiled back.Of course, Mrs. Shi, the daughter-in-laws who are close to the Tian family, also spontaneously stayed to watch the ceremony.

When it was noon, the San'er wash began, at this time Li Qingshan hurried back with Dalang.Now his life is getting smoother, and the new clothes on his body are new ones just made by his wife.

When He saw that he had changed into the clothes that he was always reluctant to wear, he knew that his man valued his sister and little niece.She poked her man's arm and gave her a look, which meant that her brother-in-law didn't dislike her sister for giving birth to a baby girl.

In fact, Li Qingshan has been so busy today, so he didn't just want to support his sister and save face.But he knew that those slanderous people in the village said every day that a woman without a son is the life of the family, and that she committed a crime in her previous life.

But now seeing his brother-in-law looking stupidly at his daughter, he also felt that he was thinking too much.

When the uncle and cousin arrived, the Li family and the Tian family had no other close people, so Aunt Liu smiled and carried the little girl into the bright main room.I saw her scooping up water to wash the little girl's body, while saying words of congratulations.

"Wash your hair first, and become a prince; wash your waist second, and one generation will be higher than the previous generation; wash your eggs, and become a magistrate; wash your ditch, and become a magistrate."

Maybe it was because her body was wet and uncomfortable, so the little girl burst into tears directly, and the situation was a bit heart-piercing.She wants her dear mother so that she will not be tossed about by a group of weirdos.

Hearing the loud crying, several people watching the ceremony laughed.He also pulled Tian Tieshi who was distressed and wanted to pick up his daughter.It turns out that Xisan also has a saying of ringing basins. The more vigorously the child cries, the happier he will be.

And Mrs. He kept telling Li Qingshan that the child would definitely be healthy in the future, those sneaky and unlucky things saw her, and decided to go around.

Aunt Liu smiled and agreed with a few good words, and praised the little girl's voice a few more.Then I ordered a moxa leaf ball, supported it with ginger slices, and placed it symbolically on the little girl's forehead.Then I took Xiaotao comb to tidy up the lanugo hair.

"Three combs, two combs, wear a red top when you grow up; draw eyebrows on the left, and temples on the right, find a daughter-in-law and son-in-law to live in the fourth village; brush your teeth, rinse your mouth, and talk to people to avoid embarrassment."

Before the words fell, the object in his hand was replaced by an egg.Perhaps it was the egg rolling on her face that was warm and itchy, but the little girl slowly stopped crying.

Aunt Liu couldn't stop congratulating her, "The egg rolls on the face, the face is like an egg skin, and the willow red is like white, you are really a lover."

After finishing all this, Mrs. He helped Aunt Liu wipe the little girl clean, wrapped her in new clothes and trapped her in her swaddling clothes again.Then hit her three times with a spring onion.

"One dozen are smart, two dozen are smart."
