Affection for Sidaogou during the Famine

Chapter 73: Prescriptions for Having a Baby

"We live in the village below, and we have a big stone mill and a donkey.

Our village has a large population and little land. There are many children in each family but few laborers, so we rely entirely on farming. We work all year round, but after paying the public grain tax in autumn, there is not much left.

Since the children were unable to help with farming, they would open a mill at home with their grandmother and earn some processing fees, which could at least supplement their income.

The seven boys are like pulling carrots, they open their eyes and open their mouths to ask for food and clothes, and they also have to go to school. Day by day, a hundred holes are waiting for this little money.

If only my family were like yours, with a city hukou, two adults working could support a large family!"

The old ladies laughed as soon as they heard this: "Well! The city has its own advantages, and the countryside has its own advantages. We envy you because you can grow your own vegetables and grains and don't have to spend money to buy them!"

"That's right. In our city, we have to pay for water and firewood. We can't get by without money!

Wow! You gave birth to seven boys? I can't believe you have such a good physique. You are really fertile!

Your family is so blessed! Oh my god! You are better than my daughter-in-law! My daughter-in-law gave me two grandsons and one granddaughter. "

Another old lady was unhappy: "Just buy white flour, why are you talking about having children?

Hurry up and buy it and leave, I have to take care of my daughter-in-law and wash her diapers when I get home!"

Her daughter-in-law has been married for eight years and has given her two granddaughters. Now, this third child has brought her false joy.

Looking at Huai Xiang, I thought it must be a boy this time, but who knew that after becoming a bandit, it turned out to be a girl!

She is so pissed off!

No one knows who moved her family's ancestral grave and ruined the feng shui, but the Goddess of Childbirth has been avoiding their family ever since.

The eldest son’s wife was lucky enough. She gave birth to a boy as her first child, and then gave birth to four girls in succession.

The second son’s wife is also okay. They have three daughters and one boy, so the family is not extinct.

As for the third brother's wife, she just wanted to have a daughter. She had suffered so many setbacks and was used to it.

But this daughter-in-law whom she personally chose did not bring her any honor. Her strong body and big butt were all in vain.

Like a fat hen with too much fat on its butt, she was unhappy for several years after marriage. After seeking medical treatment and taking medicine everywhere, she finally got happy. However, the baby she gave birth to with great effort was still a girl.

A girl is fine, it's better than no happiness. The doctor also said that as long as the pregnancy is resolved, the rest will be easy, and the children will come one after another.

Who would have thought that after the first child was born, the second one would be like a toothpaste tube that had been used for half a year, and no matter how hard you squeezed it, it wouldn't come out.

Three years passed in between, and the residue from the traditional Chinese medicine he drank raised the alleyway of his house by two inches. He finally got pregnant again, but gave birth to another bald baby.

Her family carefully took care of her body, and this time she did well enough and got pregnant again the following year.

This time the baby in my belly is finally not a demon. Everything went smoothly during the pregnancy. I asked an experienced midwife to feel the baby and she said it must be a boy.

The whole family breathed a sigh of relief and were eagerly waiting for the birth of the third child's only baby. Unexpectedly, when the baby was born, it was premature and had heavy bleeding. The family spent all their savings in the hospital, and in the end, the baby was a yellow-skinned female monkey!

Their family was worried to death. The doctor also said that the third daughter-in-law was in poor health and would not be able to have children for at least three years. She had to eat and drink well and take care of herself.

If the third son's wife's family had not often helped her family, marrying a wife like this, no matter how big the family fortune was, it would never be enough for her to ruin.

Hey! If you have a big butt and a round waist, it won’t be difficult to give birth to a child!

This is not true at all. I don’t know where this nonsense came from. It has really screwed the old woman!

The other two old ladies were from the same courtyard as her and knew that this topic touched her heart.

So, they all enthusiastically gave her advice, "Aunt Wu, you said that she is so fertile and only gave birth to sons. Do you have any tricks or secret recipes?

Comrade, please tell me, do you really have any secret recipes? If so, please tell our sisters about it. Her daughter-in-law has suffered a lot in order to have a child! "

"That's right, we are old acquaintances. If you have any secret recipes, please tell us. Helping others to have children is a great merit. If other families benefit, your family will also have good luck."

The woman selling grain couldn't even hold the scale steady. "Ladies, it's not that I don't want to tell you, I just don't know!"

Han Zhaozhao covered her mouth and kept giggling. As expected, having many children and grandchildren is always the most important thing for old ladies no matter what era!

An old lady with a kind face smiled as if spring had come. "Comrade, are you unwilling to give me the secret recipe for free? Look, we didn't bring much money this time, and we've spent it all on you.

In this case, you don't have to keep it to yourself. You are already so familiar with each other, so you won't lose anything by telling them, and you can also make good friends.

We will buy food from you from now on, and when we return, we will help you do business in our area, so that the neighbors can also take care of your business."

The middle-aged woman selling grain was held up by three old ladies. She could only mumble: "You didn't believe me when I said I didn't have any secret recipes. But if I had to tell you about a trick, I do have one, but I don't know if it works or not."

"It works, how can it not work? Seeing that you can give birth to seven boys in one breath, I know it must work. Don't keep me in suspense, just tell me directly!"

The middle-aged woman selling grain could no longer maintain her smile and said seriously: "Eat more and work harder, and get on the kang when it gets dark!"

The three old ladies looked at each other: I understand!

Isn't it just about letting the daughter-in-law eat well and be full, not assigning her housework at night, and letting her go to bed early to make little people?

Simple, they can do it!

The daughters-in-law of the three families enjoyed a period of happiness because of an extremely perfunctory word from the middle-aged woman who sold grain, but they didn't know that it was their own old woman who pushed this matter forward. It was also very dramatic.

The three old ladies happily bought the food and left. Now it was finally Han Zhaozhao's turn to step forward and talk to them.

"What's wrong with these people? What kind of folk remedies do they use to have children? Can't it be done by just sleeping?" Han Zhaozhao heard her talking to herself.

Han Zhaozhao:……

Maybe this is really not a big deal for this aunt!

"Aunt, we have a large family and want to buy more food. Do you have any?" Han Zhaozhao looked around and didn't notice anyone approaching, so he leaned close to the middle-aged woman and asked in a low voice.

The woman paused holding the scale and looked around subconsciously.

"How much food do you want to buy? A hundred or eighty kilograms is fine, but we can't buy more than that!"

"Okay, please prepare 100 kilograms of flour and 100 kilograms of rice for our family and send them to Old Han's house at No. xx, Shuijing Hutong. I will pay in cash when the time comes."

"What? You want so much food, and I want it delivered to your door? That won't do. I don't have that much food at home. Even if I did, I wouldn't deliver it to you!

If you really want to buy it, let's set a time. I'll prepare it for you in advance, and you can get the food from the donkey cart at the entrance of the alley."

The middle-aged woman was very cautious. She really wanted to do this business. If she got a big order, it would be enough for her to sell in the market for five or six days.

If you are not a regular customer, this business has great profits but also great risks! For the first large-scale transaction, you have to take the initiative and decide the transaction location yourself.
