Quick Wear: Cannon Fodder

Chapter 136: The Nanny in Troubled Times 2

The system popped up: "Host, given your current health condition, you must give birth to the baby. If you want to fight it off, no matter what medicine you take, you will probably die. The medicine produced by the system mall may save your life, but it is very expensive. Do you want to buy it?"

"No." She looked like someone who was doing a losing business? This extremely expensive medicine might save her life, and at worst she would just give birth to the ungrateful person in her belly.

She just didn't believe that giving birth to a child could kill her. In this era, people don't have many children, so what could happen if she only gave birth to this one? If the pain was unbearable, she could just buy some painkillers.

Alas, with an eight or nine month pregnant belly, she wanted to have an abortion but no one dared to help her. The system does not produce this medicine. I think there is no example of abortion in eight or nine months of pregnancy in any world.

Damn this world, it would have been better if she had been sent here a month or two earlier. She would have recovered and then quietly aborted the baby. She couldn't kill anyone, but she was an expert at running away.

Since she had decided to give birth, Ye Zhiqiu lay in bed with peace of mind. After receiving the memories, she had no good feelings towards anyone in her husband's family.

With the piece of meat in her belly as an excuse, she temporarily ignored everything and waited for a few days to feel comfortable. She was not her original self. Her parents-in-law asked her to rest, but she still wanted to show her virtue and rushed to do all the work. She was not like a pregnant woman at all.

"Old man, why are you lying in the house in broad daylight? Get up and work." A sharp cry from the mother-in-law came from outside the house.

If it were his original body, he would have gotten up long ago. Ye Zhiqiu turned over and responded slowly: "Mom, my stomach hurts and I can't get up. If you have any work, please put it aside and wait until I recover."

Seeing that her eldest daughter-in-law, who had always been obedient, could not be persuaded, Zhang Wangshi was so angry that she cursed while working: "Bullshit, how can this work wait? You lazy woman, I was blind to marry you to my eldest son. I will go to your parents' home one day to ask if you are also lazy at your parents' home. Is it your mother's teaching?"

The original body was afraid that the in-laws would come to her parents' house to question and affect the marriages of her younger sisters, but Ye Zhiqiu was not afraid. They were all poor families, so what could affect them? No matter which family she married into, it would be poor. Men could only do farm work, so don't expect them to be good to women.

Her husband is not a good person, and her parents-in-law beat her at every turn. Marrying anyone is like marrying into a hell. Why is she so anxious?

Seeing that this trick was useless, Zhang Wangshi became even angrier. But there were neighbors around, and they all knew that the eldest daughter was about to give birth, so she could only curse her verbally. If she really wanted to take action, it would be ok if she hurt the eldest daughter, but if she hurt the baby in her belly, the head of the family and the eldest son would definitely not let her go. So she better forget it and let the little bitch have a good time.

Although she decided to ignore it, Zhang Wangshi was still not forgiving. She kept muttering even when no one responded. When she cooked and put the meal on the table, she deliberately gave the smallest portion to Ye Zhiqiu, and said nice things: "Old lady, the baby will be born in a few days, you should eat less. If you eat too much, the baby will grow big. If you can't give birth, the family won't have money to hire a doctor."

Except for the second son's wife, no one in the family knows anything about having children. The men in the family think that Zhang Wang is right. The family can't even get enough to eat, so where will the money come from to hire a doctor? The eldest son's wife and sister-in-law should eat less. Skipping a meal won't kill anyone, but difficult childbirth can often kill people.

The second son's wife looked at the eldest sister-in-law with sympathy but dared not say anything. Her life was similar to that of her eldest sister-in-law. Both of them were people who could hardly take care of themselves, so she should not even think about helping others. It was good enough not to cause trouble.

Ye Zhiqiu received the sympathy from her sister-in-law and looked down at her belly. It looked big because she was thin. How much would the baby in her belly weigh? The system had already told her that it was at most four and a half kilograms. How could this be considered heavy?

If it weighed less than 5 catties, it would almost meet the standard of a premature baby. She was worried that it would be difficult to raise the baby. If she didn't know that the original body's son was raised to adulthood, she would have asked the system to buy medicine for him, for she was afraid that her son would die before the original body's eldest daughter was found.

Forget it, she also looked down on the bland rice on the table, not to mention the dishes. There is no shortage of vegetables in the water town in summer, but look at what kind of dishes they are, a pot of boiled vegetable leaves, without any oil, and except for a little salty taste, it's all grass taste.

There was still food in the room, so she pretended to drink a few sips and quickly hid back in her room to eat something delicious and spicy. She made up an excuse not to eat, and no one in the room was concerned about her health. Instead, they all stared at the porridge in her bowl. No matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat.

When you are hungry, rice soup can save a life, not to mention porridge with rice grains. No matter how thin the porridge is, it is still porridge, and a few grains of rice are always better than nothing.

Ye Zhiqiu stepped on the table and snatched away the porridge she hadn't finished. The porridge at home was distributed per person, so the porridge his wife hadn't finished belonged to him, and no one could say anything about it.

Zhang Wangshi wanted to grab the porridge for the old man, but unfortunately her hand was one step slower than her eldest son, so she scolded him. However, no matter how harshly she scolded him, it did not affect Zhang Da's speed in drinking the porridge.

The safest thing to do is to put this food into your stomach. It won't be too late to listen to my mother's scolding after you finish drinking the porridge. If you want him to give up the porridge, forget it. Not even his own father can do that.

After listening to the system's broadcast, Ye Zhiqiu analyzed, "We have to leave this place quickly. Every family has no food. How can I gain weight by eating delicious and spicy food every day?"

She didn't want to be noticed by the people around her, and she didn't want to be slaughtered like a pig. Damn it, if she had no food, she would be in danger of starving to death, and if she had money, she would also be in danger of being kidnapped by bandits. It would be better to go to the city, change her identity after entering the city, and at least she wouldn't be slaughtered for having a few pounds of meat on her body.

After eating a meat bun in the space and an apple, Ye Zhiqiu was almost full. In fact, she felt that she could eat a few more big meat buns, but she had not eaten enough for a long time, so she didn't dare to eat too much for a while, for fear of upset her stomach.

Normally, you should drink some porridge to nourish your stomach, but it is inconvenient to eat porridge secretly without being seen by others. Buns are better. If someone comes in, you can hide them anywhere.

"How do you explain the smell of meat?" the system reminded.

"You're right. We can't have the smell of meat every day. It can be explained once or twice, but in the future we should just eat steamed buns. They have no taste." Ye Zhiqiu was thankful that there was everything to eat in the space. There were not only steamed buns but also coarse grain steamed buns and quite a few wowo buns. However, even the coarse grains were hundreds of times better than the food the Zhang family had now. It was too conspicuous to take them out. If he wanted to eat them openly, he had to go into the city.

There is everything in the city, a world of decadence and extravagance. No one cares about how much meat she eats. As long as she doesn't get involved in big events, she is not afraid of eating meat and fish every day.

In order to get to the city earlier and live a good life of eating meat every day, Ye Zhiqiu, who was looking forward to the piece of meat coming out of her belly as soon as possible, asked the system: "Is there any medicine to induce labor? If the baby is born earlier, I can suffer less for a few days?"
