The Pretty Military Wife

Chapter 64 Taking care of children

Liang Xinyue sighed slightly.

It was getting late, and the adults were too upset to eat, but the children were hungry.

Liang Xinyue thought about the dough that Xiao Wei had kneaded, so she decided to stick to the original plan. She got out two eggs and chopped up the oil residue.

After everything is prepared, we start kneading the dough and making dumplings.

In order to look after the children, Liang Xinyue moved to the main room to make dumplings.

After checking that Xiao Laoer had finished his candy, Liang Xinyue breathed a sigh of relief. It would be bad if you gave a child a candy and ended up letting him choke.

What we usually see is Lin Xiaoju holding the child in her arms and never letting go. I thought the child couldn't walk yet, but I didn't expect that he could walk very well after playing with Lanlan and others.

Liang Xinyue finished wrapping the dumplings. People were still talking in the yard. Lin Xiaoju, who had been beaten, was still crying.

When Liang Xinyue was about to cook dumplings, Xiao Wei ran in. His gloomy look made Liang Xinyue feel that something was wrong.

"Sister, Daya hasn't woken up yet, and her arms, legs, and pelvis are all broken. She may need to be sent to the county hospital. But Doctor Liao said he was afraid she couldn't stand the stress of the ride, so he wanted to stabilize her first."

Liang Xinyue's face darkened.

Can that child be cured?

Medical care was not so developed in that era, and there were no cement roads from here to the county town, only dirt roads full of potholes. The first time I went into the city myself, I felt it was very bumpy.

If the child had any injuries to the head or internal organs, he might not be able to withstand the jolt.

Liang Xinyue didn't know what to say.

Suddenly thought of one thing:

"Train, Xiao Wei, like the day we recruits came back, the train is not so bumpy."

But to take the train, you have to walk more than ten miles along the mountain road first.

However, Xiao Wei seemed to have thought of something and ran back to the group.

Liang Xinyue cooked the dumplings and gave each child a plate.

Dongdong and Lanlan don’t need to be fed, but the little one does.

After Fu Chunhua persuaded Lin Xiaoju for a long time, she helped her back to the house. Lin Xiaoju walked a little crookedly because she was really hurt by the kicks.

The military wives discussed it and decided that each of them would take turns watching for an hour and wait for news to come from the other side.

Fu Chunhua had given her child to Liang Xinyue, so she was the only one who looked after him for the first hour. The others had to go back and make arrangements for their own children.

When it was getting dark, Xiao Wei came again. Liang Xinyue left him a plate of dumplings, but he didn't eat them:

"I'm going to take Daya to the train with Lao Gu and Captain Xiao. Political Commissar Xu has arranged a car, and we'll be there in two hours."

While he was talking, Liang Xinyue decisively took a lunch box and packed up all the remaining dumplings:

"Take it with you. Share it with Lao Gu and Lao Xiao. Each of you can have a little."

Xiao Wei hesitated for a moment, but still took it:

"Sister, this may have to be with you tonight. Also, Political Commissar Xu will arrange people to watch over there. The regiment commander has to stay in the regiment and may not be able to come out tonight."

"Yeah. I understand."

After a while, Fu Chunhua came over. Liang Xinyue cooked her another bowl of noodles with the soup in the pot.

She kept refusing, but Liang Xinyue insisted. While she was cooking, Political Commissar Xu arrived.

Political Commissar Xu looked at the three children and Fu Chunhua in Liang Xinyue's room:

"Xiao Fu, I'm afraid these two kids will have to stay with Xiao Liang tonight. You have to go to the next door to keep an eye on them. It's a matter of life or death. Someone has to watch over them and wait for news from Lao Xiao and the others."

"By the way, I have found Xiao Huang and the others. They will be on guard until two o'clock in the morning. You can take a rest first. After two o'clock, you and Xiao Tian will keep watch. I have contacted them."

Then he looked at Liang Xinyue and said:

"Xiao Liang, I'm afraid I have to trouble you. This little one has to stay with you tonight."

Liang Xinyue nodded:

"It doesn't matter. All three children will stay with me."

"Well, Lao Zhou has to be on duty tonight. If you have anything to say, ask the guard to pass on the message."

Political Commissar Xu actually also has a yard here, but his wife has never lived here, so his yard has always been empty.

Normally, he lived in the military camp. And if it was just him and Zhou Guoliang today, they would have to stay behind.

After seeing Political Commissar Xu off, Fu Chunhua and Liang Xinyue looked at each other and sighed silently.

While Fu Chunhua was eating noodles, Liang Xinyue went to make the bed in this room.

Fortunately, I had nothing to do the day before yesterday, so I fetched a bucket of water and cleaned the bed. I just had to put down the mattress and I could live there.

"Sister Fu, you can stay here with the two children first. I'll take care of the younger one when you sleep, and when you get up at night, I'll just take care of the three of them."

Liang Xinyue didn't go to see Lin Xiaoju. She believed that Lin Xiaoju might be more excited if she saw her.

Fu Chunhua did not refuse. If she took the child back to sleep, it would be troublesome if the child called for help in the middle of the night.

Whatever the case, let's just make do with it for tonight.

After eating the noodles, she refused to let Liang Xinyue wash the dishes, and washed them herself. Liang Xinyue went to get some hot water, so that the three of them could wash up.

Fu Chunhua picked up Xiao Xiao, who was sitting and dozing off, and washed his face and feet.

She was very skilled in taking care of the child, and even took the child outside to help him pee:

"Well, I'll take the three children with me tonight, and you sleep over there. When I leave, I'll come over so I don't have to carry the little one around."

Dongdong and Lanlan were very sensible. When Fu Chunhua said that they would stay here today, the two children were excited. However, at a look from their mother, the two children did not jump up. Instead, they washed their faces and feet obediently and went to the toilet on their own initiative.

Even Liang Xinyue praised the two children for their good teaching.

Little Xiao felt sleepy and didn't recognize anyone at all. He fell asleep in Fu Chunhua's arms.

Fu Chunhua undressed him while telling her child how to do it. The brother helped his sister pull up her trouser legs.

They both took off their outer clothes and listened to their mother. The brother slept in the innermost bed, with the sister next to him. Fu Chunhua slept at the other end holding Xiao Xiaoxiao, but her feet were placed on the outside of her sister so that she wouldn't fall.

The children fell asleep after lying down for a while, but Fu Chunhua couldn't sleep.

When Liang Xinyue went to lock the back door, Fu Chunhua sighed and said:

"I hope the child is okay. I always feel that Lin Xiaoju really didn't want that daughter. You wouldn't know if you hadn't been here. After several twists and turns, the child was lucky enough to survive."

"If she had been nicer to the child, the girl would have grown up well. I heard that if their family was short of food, it would be for the child. Look at this son, he has become fat because of her."

"She always says we are from the countryside. She is from the city and is even more feudal than us. She favors boys over girls to no end. Mr. Chen in our family loves his daughter the most."
