Chapter 67

A quarter of an hour later, the steamed crabs were ready, and the umami and fragrance of the crabs wafted in the courtyard, making people think about it.At this time, Shengzi, who went to the town to buy wine, also came back, carrying two jars of wine and two packs of herbs in his hands. The aroma of crab and old wine made his mouth water.Seeing the birth, Grandma Li said to us: "Brother, the steamed crabs are ready, and the old wine has been bought, let's go in and eat." It’s better to eat in the courtyard, it’s not only bright but also not boring.” Granny Li said: “Okay then, I’ll bring out the crabs right now. Niu’er comes to help.” Niu’er who was chatting with Axiu was not sympathetic Reluctantly, he stood up and walked into the house.

After a while, all the crabs were brought out. Fortunately, the stone table in the yard was big enough, otherwise it really couldn't fit it.I saw that there were only seven of us at the table, and Li Po, Niu Er, Sheng Zi and A Juan were not at the table, so I said: "Li Po, why don't you come and eat quickly?" Li Po said: "Little brother, you are guests How can we have a meal with you at the table. Besides, you have spent money to eat crabs at my house, so it’s nothing for us to eat together. Brother, eat quickly, the crabs will not taste good when they are cold." Situ Jing said: "Grandma Li, although we spent money to buy crabs from you, the crabs on this table are also made by you, so there is no problem eating with us." The son saw Situ Jing saying so Then he said: "This is against the rules. There is no reason for others to spend money to eat by themselves." Situ Jing stood up and pressed his son on the stool and said, "This is not about the rules of the royal meal. Come on, brother, let's drink I drank this glass. You see, they are either women or children, who can drink, if you don't drink with me, what's the point of drinking this wine?"

Seeing what Situ Jing said, the son didn't give in. He took the wine glass and drank the wine in one gulp, and said to Situ Jing, "Brother has been in my house for so long and forgot to ask your name?" Situ Jing was about to speak, I hastily cut off the conversation and said: "Our surname is Huang, my brother is Huang Jing, and I am Huang Hai. They are all my brothers named Huang Lu, Huang Shun, Huang Jie, and Huang You, and this is my cousin named Jiang Xiu. Brother Lu, why don’t you invite Sister Niu’er over to eat together?” I pushed Xu Lu to the side, and gave Situ Jing a wink by the way.Seeing what I said, Xu Lu came to Niu'er and said, "Niu'er, come and eat together." Niu'er glanced at him and said, "My brother has already sat down, so of course I want to sit down too. Sister-in-law, we will also sit down." Go and eat." Niu'er walked towards us with A Juan's right arm in her left hand, Xu Lu had no choice but to return to his seat with his head drooped, staring at the crabs on the table in a daze.Axiu also got up and brought Granny Li over to eat the crabs together.

I picked up a crab and shook it in front of Xu Lu and said, "What are you doing? These crabs are for you to eat, not for you to see. Can you tell the taste of crabs just by looking at them? You have to do it when chasing a woman." Hurry up and eat." Xu Lu took the crab I handed to him and nodded at me, turning his frustration into motivation to eat the crab, and began to compete with the crab.Seeing them eating so happily one by one, I also put aside the caution that Xiaoyou told me to eat less fireworks, and started eating with crabs.Not to mention that the crabs here are really fat. When you open the back cover of the crab, you can see that the whole back cover is full of golden crab roe. It is absolutely delicious when eaten with a little sauce and vinegar. It is a pure natural and pollution-free crab, which is absolutely the same as the farmed crabs eaten in the previous life.

We were eating, drinking and chatting, when Ajuan, who was sitting with Niuer, suddenly screamed, threw the crab on the table, covered her stomach with her hands, and her forehead was covered in cold sweat.Seeing that the childbirth was not good, she hurried to Ajuan's side, and asked anxiously: "Ajuan, what's the matter with you, are you uncomfortable there?" Ajuan said weakly, "I have a stomachache after giving birth, it hurts so much." When the son heard that A Juan had a stomachache, he immediately panicked and didn't know what to do. He just grabbed A Juan's hands and called A Juan's name.After all, Granny Li was shocked and said, "Girl, run to the town and invite Langzhong Li, and take Ajuan to the house first when you give birth." After saying a word, I went to the town to invite a doctor, and then I spread my legs and rushed out.

I grabbed Shengzi who was running out and said, "Brother Shengzi, don't go. When you invite Mrs. Ajuan, the doctor, she will be suffocated in pain. Let me show Mrs. Ajuan." When Shengzi heard this, he asked, "Will Hai Brothers see a doctor?" I nodded and said, "You go into the room, take a quilt and spread it on the floor, and put Ajuan's sister-in-law on the ground, and I'll give her a pulse first. "Nu'er heard me say that she can see a doctor, so she hurried into the house, hugged a quilt and spread it on the floor, and shouted to her son: "Brother, quickly put your sister-in-law on the quilt and lie down, let Huang Hai have a look." "Oh," Shengzi responded and picked up Ajuan and put her on the quilt.

I squatted down and held up A Juan's right wrist, pinched A Juan's pulse with three fingers, index, middle and ring, and carefully checked her condition.After a while, I withdrew my right hand, stood up, smiled and said to Shengzi, "Congratulations on having a baby brother, sister-in-law Ajuan is happy, and you are going to be a father soon." Ajuan was happy, her face that was almost turned into a bun immediately opened her eyes and smiled like a blooming flower, she grabbed my hand and said to me: "Brother Hai, what you said is true, Ajuan is really happy?" I took a picture He patted his chest and said: "Of course it is true. Can I joke about it? Congratulations, Granny Li, you are going to be a grandma." Hearing this news, Granny Li's wrinkled face burst into laughter and said: " I'm going to be a grandma, so I'll tell your father right now. The head of the family, Ajuan is happy," Granny Li shouted as she walked into the house.

Situ Jing who was standing beside me pulled me and asked me in a low voice, "Hai, are you sure she is really pregnant? You are not playing with us, are you?" I punched him in the stomach and said : "Stay here and look down on me, don't you? Don't forget that my master is a Daoist person, so I don't know how to treat such pediatrics?" Situ Jing clutched his stomach and said, "Okay, you are amazing, you How many things are you hiding from me? Have you already become an immortal?" I gave him a hard look and said to myself, "Why are you talking so loudly? I'm afraid others won't know if you know an immortal or not?" Fortunately, everyone else was happy for A Juan and didn't notice him talking.

I pushed away Situ Jing and said to the happy son who didn't know what to say: "Brother Shengzi, listen to me first. Although sister-in-law Ajuan is happy, I found that her body is a little strange, and I'm not sure if it's safe. Give birth to a child?" Shengzi wrinkled his whole face into a bun after hearing what I said, grabbed my hand and asked, "Brother Hai, what are you talking about, what's wrong with Ajuan, will her life be in danger? "I pointed to Ajuan who fell asleep due to the pain and said to Shengzi: "Brother Shengzi, don't worry, everything will be discussed after I find out the cause of the disease. Now take Ajuan's sister-in-law back to the house. I want to check carefully. Is it serious? Will it affect the baby in my stomach?" Shengzi nodded and said: "Okay, Brother Hai will listen to you, and I will take Ajuan back to the house."

Seeing Shengzi squatting down to pick up Ajuan, I hurriedly said: "This is not possible, Brother Shengzi. Sister-in-law Ajuan can only lie flat now. Brother Jing, help me and Brother Shengzi carry Sister-in-law Ajuan into the house." Situ Jing nodded, knelt down and lifted Ajuan up with Shengzi and walked towards the side room in the courtyard.I told the others to wait here, don't go in and disturb me, so I dragged Xiaoyou, who was eating a crab leg, and followed.After entering the house, I drove Situ Jing and Shengzi out, pulled Xiaoyou to Ajuan, and said, "Stop eating, Xiaoyou, come and see what seems to be something inhuman in Ajuan's body." But the spiritual consciousness of this thing is so subtle that I can't find any trace of it." Xiaoyou threw away the eaten crab legs and came to Ajuan, and put her right hand on Ajuan's vein door to probe into her body.

After a while, Xiaoyou let go of her right hand and said to me: "It is true that there is a trace of non-human spiritual consciousness in her body, but I am not very clear about what it is. This trace of spiritual consciousness is too weak." Xiaoyou and I were discussing While wondering what to do, Ajuan slowly opened her eyes and woke up, and asked me: "Brother Hai, what happened to me?" I said to her, "Sister-in-law Ajuan, you are happy."

When Ajuan heard me say that, she was very happy, and said: "I have been married for more than five years, and my stomach has not moved. Now I finally have it." Seeing Ajuan so happy I am willing to interrupt her joy of being a first-time mother, I really can't bear not to interrupt her joy, but I can't do without saying this.I said cautiously: "Sister-in-law Ajuan, it's true that you are happy, but there is something abnormal in your body. I wonder if you have encountered any strange things recently?" Ajuan was in a daze when she heard what I said, and she didn't recover for a long time.Not long after, she said to me with a slight cry: "What's wrong with my body, can't I keep my child?" I hurriedly persuaded: "Sister-in-law Ajuan is not allowed to cry when she is pregnant. I am not sure yet. It’s not that there’s any danger to the baby in your womb, but I can’t rule out that there’s no danger, so I’d like to ask if you’ve encountered any strange things recently?”

"Strange thing?" A Juan tried her best to recall what happened in the past few days, and suddenly she remembered something, and said: "There is such a thing, but I'm not sure if it's a strange thing? "As soon as I heard her say that, I hurriedly said: "Tell me." A Juan nodded and said: "Okay. It should have happened ten days ago. One day, Niuer and Niuer went shopping in the town and were not at home. They had a baby." I came back from the boat with my father, and brought a big lotus pod, saying that I would make lotus seed soup when my mother came back. I saw that the lotus seeds in the lotus pod were full, so I ate one, and put the rest in a bowl, waiting for my mother to make it when she came back. Lotus seed soup. When mother and girl came back and were about to make lotus seed soup, the father who was resting in the house suddenly complained of stomach pain. The son hurried to ask a doctor to take his pulse, but he couldn't find out why. He asked father if he had eaten Nothing, Dad only said that he ate a few freshly picked lotus seeds on the boat, and the doctor said that the abdominal pain might be caused by the lotus seeds he ate before, so he prescribed a few medicines for the abdominal pain and went back. I was also panicked, but I didn’t have a stomachache after eating the lotus seeds, so I didn’t care about it. I was afraid that my family would eat badly, so I wanted to throw away the rest of the lotus seeds. It’s a pity to throw away the good lotus seeds. Then I put it away. But my father’s condition not only didn’t get better after taking the medicine, but also worsened, and now he can’t get off the kang. Please come to the doctor to see that it may be due to excessive diarrhea, and he needs to eat some ginseng to replenish his vitality. But our family has no money to buy ginseng, so we can only ask the doctor to prescribe some cheap qi-tonifying medicinal materials for temporary treatment, and wait until we have money to buy ginseng."
