With Pinxixi in hand, I have a supermarket in the Changzheng!

[Sister Yueyue! Sister Suzhen is about to give birth! ]

Hearing the system's urgent voice, Zhou Yue's nerves also tensed up. Counting the days, it was indeed Sister Suzhen's due date.

[Let the midwife who was assigned go and deliver the baby quickly! Project the real-time screen to me! ]

Although Zhou Yue had made all the necessary arrangements for them, she knew that giving birth was like going through the gates of hell for a woman.

She couldn't feel at ease until she saw with her own eyes that the mother and child were safe.

The next second, the image of the adobe house appeared in her mind.

Compared to when I first moved in, this place has more life and warmth.

Several vegetable plots were opened outside the door, and the green vegetables are growing well.

Next to the house, there was a row of small nests made of wood, and the rabbits and chickens inside were fed and kept fat.

Li Suzhen was lying on the bed at this time, holding her stomach with a painful look on her face.

Xu Shitou held his wife's hand and said, "Suzhen, wait a moment. I'll go get the midwife now!"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the door, and a woman in her forties or fifties was standing outside.

After Xu Shitou opened the door, he saw the old lady outside. Before he could ask a question, the old lady had already started telling him things to do.

"Go boil some hot water! And prepare some clean towels!"

"Hey, good!"

With the help of the midwife, the two new parents seemed to have found a backbone.

This midwife has many years of experience in delivering babies and is proficient in obstetrics and gynecology. She first calms the pregnant woman down.

"Don't be nervous or afraid, take a deep breath and hold your breath, then try harder!"

With the help of an experienced midwife, the baby was finally born!

"Oh! What a pretty little girl!"

The midwife wrapped the tiny baby in a clean quilt and placed it in front of Li Suzhen for her to see.

Xu Shitou also hurried over, and when he heard that it was a daughter, the silly smile on his face didn't stop.

Although the newborn baby was a little wrinkled, they liked it more and more the more they looked at it.

After the child was born safely, the midwife did not leave immediately because Zhou Yue gave her a task.

That is to take care of Sister Suzhen during her confinement. If Xu Shitou is alone, he will not only be too busy but also may not be able to take good care of her.

"Your wife can't live without milk now. Go down the mountain and catch two fish to make milk soup."

The midwife patted the baby gently and spoke to Xu Shitou.

Pregnant women who have just given birth need to stimulate breastfeeding, otherwise they will have no milk.

"Good good!"

Xu Shitou took the fishing net and ran down the mountain excitedly.

There were originally no fish in the clear stream at the foot of the mountain, but Zhou Yue put a lot of fish in it just to nourish Sister Suzhen's body.

After drinking the fish soup, the milk didn't come out quickly, so they took out the milk powder that Zhou Yue had prepared for them.

The cute little baby sucked, and after drinking his fill, he fell into a sound sleep in his cradle.

Zhou Yue saw these heartwarming scenes through the screen projection, and her heart finally settled down and she felt warm inside.

She became more determined in her heart that this long march was not in vain!

If she hadn't come, Sister Suzhen would have suffered more, and it would have been unknown whether the child could be born safely.

After giving birth to the child, she could only ask fellow villagers along the way to help take care of the child. How heartbreaking it would be for the mother and daughter to be separated!

"Hiss! Why do I feel it's getting colder and colder!"

"That's right! It's already June, why is it suddenly so cold?"

"Alas! This is how it is in western Sichuan. The closer you get to the snow-capped mountains, the colder it gets!"

The Red Army continued to advance towards Jiajin Mountain, and the temperature became lower and lower as they advanced.

It’s already June, but the temperature can drop to several degrees below zero!

The weather was gradually getting warmer, and the Red Army soldiers had already changed into thinner clothes.

But in recent days, the temperature has suddenly dropped, and everyone has put on cotton clothes again.

"Sister! That snowy mountain is so beautiful!"

Zhou Xing pointed at the big snow-capped mountain in the distance, his eyes sparkling.

As a child who grew up in Jiangxi, he had never seen the snow-capped mountains.

“It’s very beautiful, but it’s also very cold!”

Zhou Yue learned through the system that the temperature on Jiajin Mountain could reach minus 20 to 30 degrees Celsius.

As a native Sichuanese, she could not imagine what it felt like in temperatures of minus 20 or 30 degrees Celsius.

After all, when it comes to the coldest winter in Sichuan, the temperature is only a few degrees below zero.

It’s a bit chilly even wearing cotton clothes now. If we go up the snowy mountains, we will definitely be frozen!

"Comrades, let's go into the town and rest first!"

There was a town some distance away from the snow-capped mountains, and the Red Army chose to rest in the town first.

When Zhou Yue entered the town, she saw that both adults and children were wrapped thickly, with even their hands tucked into their clothes.

Many children's thick cotton coats have turned yellow and black, and are covered with patches.

My younger brother Zhou Xing is becoming more and more lively. He made some friends not long after arriving in the town.

A dirty little boy of eight or nine years old listened to Zhou Xing talking about the outside world.

"It's already quite warm in my hometown!"

"Wow! Don't you need to wear a cotton coat?"

"Of course not!"

When the little boy heard that it was warm outside in June and he didn't need to wear cotton clothes, he was very envious.

In areas near the snow-capped mountains, it is extremely cold all year round. The children here have red and cracked faces, and their hands and feet are covered with frostbite.

In this cold western Sichuan region, the grain harvest is not good, and hunger and cold have almost become the norm for the villagers.

Both adults and children feel dirty here because it is too cold all year round and it is difficult to take a hot bath.

The night we arrived in town, we had an especially sumptuous meal. The rice porridge was thicker than usual, and there was greasy bacon to go with the rice.

Thanks to Zhou Yue's arrangements and design, the Red Army had sufficient supplies along the way, and the soldiers had not experienced what it felt like to be hungry for a long time.

However, it is impossible to carry so many supplies when crossing this vast snowy mountain.

Villagers have reminded us that the roads on the snowy mountains are slippery and difficult to travel on, so we should bring as little as possible to avoid danger.

When it was time to go to bed at night, in order not to disturb the people in the town, the soldiers slept on the ground in the cold wind.

Although everyone was covered with quilts, they still felt chilly when the cool evening breeze blew.

The soldiers in the Red Army also knew that they would have to cross the snow-capped mountains in two days.

Looking at the towering snow-capped mountains and thinking about the biting cold on the mountains, I can't help but feel a little worried.

However, Zhou Yue had already thought of a solution to this problem.

On the next morning, a large crowd of people poured into the town.
