The heavy rain was still falling and the government did nothing.

Xiangzhou, Jinguan and Wucheng are still covered in vast oceans, with countless lives lost.

The water level did not drop due to the hot weather, but instead rose further with the continuous heavy rain.

Just talking about Qingshan, the water level has risen five or six meters from the foot of the mountain.

The members of the Qingshan Gang guarded the foot of the mountain and prevented people on the mountain from going out to look for supplies.

The resources on the mountain are becoming increasingly scarce. All the wild vegetables have been dug up, and there are no animals such as rabbits and pheasants.

The atmosphere became more tense.

At this time, the people from the Qingshan Gang stood up and said that as long as anyone had no food to eat, they could come to the Qingshan Gang every day to get a steamed bun.

The prestige of the Qingshan Gang was growing, and they, along with other members of the gang, were wantonly robbing other people's homes that still had supplies.

The Chen, Wang, and Li families in the neighboring cave had already joined the Qingshan Gang.

Even the place where I lived was moved there.

At the Gu family, life is still peaceful and quiet.

No one knew whether the Qingshan Gang was planning a big move or what, but they didn't come to cause trouble for them.

It rained heavily today.

Xie Ling looked at the refugees running outside in the rain and asked Shi Shaoxuan to call everyone out.

All those who were sleeping or resting in the cave came out and gathered under the arbour.

Xie Ling said loudly: "I want to tell you something today."

Everyone fell silent, even the children shut their mouths and pricked up their ears.

"First, the situation is serious now. No one is allowed to go out at will. It's very dangerous outside!

Second, no refugees can be rescued. Remember, I said any!"

Everyone nodded hurriedly without asking the reason.

Whatever Xie Ling says is what it is, and they believe her!

"Sister Xie Ling, I will definitely listen to you!"

The little boy from the Wu family nodded seriously, like a serious little soldier, which made people laugh.

Xie Ling took out a candy and smiled with two shallow dimples.

"Okay, good kids will have candy."

The other children also came over and made a fuss, their little mouths as sweet as honey, each one sweeter than the other. They pulled Xie Ling's sleeves and vied with each other to call her Sister Xie Ling.

Xie Ling handed out candies one by one.

Ru Jieer pouted a little aggrievedly, "Sister-in-law, you are the sister-in-law of me and my brother."

Li Ge'er on the side also pursed his lips, looking a little sad.

Xie Ling laughed. She had been busy these days and had indeed not taken care of Li Ge'er and Ru Jie'er. When they came to play with her, she sent them away.

It seems that the little girl is jealous.

Xie Ling turned around and took Li Ge'er and Ru Jie'er to the corner, half-crouched down, and was the same height as the two children.

The tone is gentle.

"My sister-in-law has been busy lately and hasn't paid attention to you. Are you sad?"

Li Ge'er: "No."

Ru Ru: "Yes! Ru Ru is so sad..."

The two of them said two different things.

Xie Ling laughed and patted the two children on the head.

Take out what you have in your hand.

"What do you think this is?"

Two ice cream cones were held in Xie Ling's hands.

When the sunlight came down, the ice on the top melted immediately.

She just didn't believe that any child could refuse ice cream!

As expected, the two of them blinked their eyes and asked in unison: "What is this?"

"This is called ice cream, eat it quickly or it will melt."

The two of them took it carefully and bit into it.

His eyes lit up instantly and he kept blinking.

Ru Jieer even jumped around with excitement, which was so adorable.

Xie Ling watched as the two of them bit their ice cream until there were pieces missing here and there, and took out one as well, "That's not how you eat it. I'll teach you."

After saying that, he licked it.

"That's it."

Ru Jie'er, Li Ge'er imitated Xie Ling and licked it properly.

In just a minute or two, the three of them finished an ice cream.

Looking at the two children's eager eyes, Xie Ling couldn't bear it and took out two ice creams of other flavors and handed them over.

"This is all I have. If you eat too much in one day, you'll have diarrhea."

"Thank you, sister-in-law!"

After the two children finished eating, they scrambled to run into Xie Ling's arms, and their sticky little hands tightly wrapped around Xie Ling's slender neck. Ru Jie held the left one and Li Ge held the right one, making her sweat all over.

"Sister-in-law is the best."

"Okay. Go play now and stop hugging me."

Only after Xie Ling said this did they let go.

Looking at the children running happily, Xie Ling smiled gently.

She didn't even notice that there was a gentle maternal glow in her eyes.

This was a look that Xie Ling had never shown before in the last days.

Xie Ling entered the cave, pulled the curtain, and his consciousness entered the space.

It's time to bring out the Song family.

The premature baby has been almost fully nurtured, and has grown plump and white with the nourishment of Xie Ling's high-nutrition milk powder and Lingquan water.

Her cheeks were a little pink and her eyes were as bright as two black grapes.

As soon as he saw Xie Ling, he smiled so hard that his teeth were showing, and his chubby little hands grabbed Xie Ling's sleeves and refused to let go.

Xie Ling curved her lips and said softly, "You're so clingy today."

Then he took a small toy beside him to play with her.

After feeding the baby girl with breast milk, Xie Ling gave Song an IV drip and nutritional supplements.

Xie Ling took good care of Song during her confinement period, giving her the best supplements and the most nutritious potions.

Xie Ling knows very well that the confinement period for women is very important. If they don’t take good care of themselves, they are likely to develop illnesses.

I found some nice clothes for the baby girl, took some soft blankets, and dug a stroller out of the warehouse.

Xie Ling took Song and the baby out.

After the effect of the coma-causing drug wore off, Song gradually opened her eyes.

Her memory still lingers on the day of delivery.

The first thing he said was, "Ling'er? Are you okay with the flood? How about grandma and the others? Are they all safe? I was saved by a pair of kind-hearted siblings. I was so worried about you."

Finally, he asked, "Was the baby born safely?"

Xie Ling narrowed her eyes, "Everything is fine. You were in a coma for more than ten days. The child is here, a little girl, look."

Carry the child over.

After hearing this, Song felt relieved.

His gaze turned to the little baby girl in Xie Ling's arms, tears suddenly welled up in his eyes, and he covered his mouth and sobbed.

"She looks like her father, like her father! Her father always said he wanted a girl, but now that the child is born, she has disappeared..."

Seeing that Song was about to be heartbroken again, Xie Ling quickly comforted her, "Brother will be fine. Your current task is to take care of your health."

Song nodded, "Thanks to you. Sister-in-law really doesn't know how to repay you."

Xie Ling smiled and said, "What's the point of saying thank you as a family? If you really want to thank me, take good care of your health."

After saying that, he put the baby girl back into the stroller.

Then he took out the sanitary napkin beside him.

"Sister-in-law, your lochia hasn't finished flowing yet. This thing is called a sanitary napkin. I'll teach you how to use it..."

Song's eyes sparkled. "This is a good thing, but it would be a bit of a waste for me to use it. You are a little girl, so keep it for yourself in the future. I can just use a cloth strip or a menstrual belt."

In ancient times, women used sanitary belts or cloth strips during their menstruation.

There are two types of menstrual belts.

Wood ash menstrual belts and straw paper menstrual belts.

Girls from ordinary families use menstrual belts made of wood ash.

They put wood ash into small strips of cloth and tied the two ends around their waists with thin strings to make a simple sanitary napkin.

The number of times a menstrual belt needs to be replaced depends on the family's wealth. Some people may only have one menstrual belt in their lifetime.

After their period, they would manually discard the waste, clean the small cloth strips, let them air dry, and then use them again.

Wood ash was a very common cleaning agent at the time. It was the residue formed after burning plants such as mountain grass, straw, and branches.

Noble families used straw paper menstrual belts.

Toilet paper easily absorbs moisture. You can directly put the toilet paper in the sanitary belt and use it, and then throw it away after use. It is convenient and quick.

But straw paper was very expensive and ordinary people could not afford it, so it became exclusive to aristocratic families.

The Song family used to use straw paper menstrual belts.

Now that she was in exile and the conditions were simple, she did not act pretentiously and was diligent. When she had nothing to do during the exile, she would prepare the cloth strips early.

It’s a pity that they have all been washed away by the flood.

But she is very nimble and has excellent embroidery skills, so she should be able to make a few pieces quickly.

Xie Ling shook her head, "This is for you, I still have some!"

Song didn't believe it.

I touched the soft and thick texture under my hand and sighed in my heart that it was even better than the one in the Duke's Mansion.

She felt that this thing must have been prepared for Xie Ling by her kind uncles. How could she have the nerve to use it?

Xie Ling had been busy all the time for her, and now she was giving her such a good thing. She couldn't accept it no matter what.

People should be content!

Therefore, he handed the item back forcefully, "Sister-in-law won't want it, you keep it for yourself."

Xie Ling laughed.

This family is good in every way.

It's just too axial!

Xie Ling moved the two large boxes of sanitary napkins behind her and said, "Sister-in-law, this is really a lot!"

Song's eyes widened. This was too much!

A light bulb went off in her head, and she suddenly remembered some of Xie Ling's strange behaviors during his exile.

For example, snow boots, blankets, cotton clothes and delicacies can all be conjured out of thin air…

Only then did the Song family agree to use it.

I thought Ling'er must have a lot of them.

After finishing speaking, Song frowned, her eyes flickered, she pulled Xie Ling over, and whispered: "Don't use your magic in front of outsiders, do you hear me? Don't worry, I will never tell a word to outsiders even if I die, but others..."

She was really worried about her younger brother and sister.

In her heart, Xie Ling is a cold-faced, kind-hearted, innocent and simple little girl.

Xie Ling blinked, "Don't worry, sister-in-law. I'm very smart and will never let anyone find out. I'll go call mother-in-law to come see you."
