The fat wife is rebellious: she was spoiled by the group on the way to escape famine

Jiang Jinhe planned to take these things to the pharmacy to exchange for ginseng.

These days, meat is more valuable than silver and gold.

As expected, when the drugstore owner saw the meat in Jiang Jinhe's arms, his eyes lit up instantly, and he was more excited than seeing gold.

After all, meat is not easy to buy nowadays even with gold.

After some bargaining, Jiang Jinhe successfully exchanged for a ginseng.

If he wasn't in a hurry to use it, Jiang Jinhe was confident that he could exchange it for more good things.

But time was running out, so she had to give up.

When Jiang Jinhe turned back, the sound of Aunt Wang urging Song Yuyu to work harder reached his ears again.

Song Yuyu remembered Jiang Jinhe's words and only moaned occasionally without exerting any force.

As soon as Jiang Jinhe stepped into the room, Song Yuyu looked at her with tears in her eyes.

"Could you please go to the kitchen and get me a kitchen knife, Aunt Zhang? I have some ginseng here and I need to cut it up for Yuyu to take."

"Okay, I'll go right away."

Aunt Zhang is straightforward, efficient and never talks much.

Jiang Jinhe showed the ginseng hidden in his arms to Song Yuyu.

"Yuyu, look, this is ginseng. As long as you have it, you will be fine. Remember what the doctor said? The doctor said that ginseng can boost your energy. You will definitely get better!"

Jiang Jinhe spoke with such certainty that the doctor outside the window could no longer sit still when he heard this. When had he ever said such a thing?

When Song Yuyu saw the ginseng, she hurriedly asked:

"Sister! Did you exchange it for that meat?"

"Don't think too much about it. The key is to give birth to the child first."

Jiang Jinhe understood her concerns and hurried to comfort her.

Song Yuyu's face was filled with heartache.

The meat was saved by them through their frugal living, and it was not worth it to exchange it for a small ginseng.

After Aunt Zhang brought the knife, Jiang Jinhe cut a large piece of ginseng and asked Song Yuyu to hold it in her mouth, while Aunt Zhang marveled at it.

The Jiang family girl is really kind to her sister-in-law. She was able to get ginseng at this critical moment.

Thanks to the help of ginseng, Song Yuyu finally regained some strength, and at this time an experienced midwife came.

With the assistance of professionals, after several hours of severe pain, Song Yuyu successfully gave birth to a baby girl.

The experienced midwife checked and confirmed the baby was healthy, estimated its weight, and exclaimed...

"Hey, look at this kid, he must weigh 10 pounds, right? I can't believe you, my little sister, are so thin, but you raised such a strong child."

Jiang Jinhe's face instantly blossomed, but she didn't dare to hold the child in her own hands, so she had to ask her mother-in-law to do it for her and gently place the child next to Song Yuyu.

Song Yuyu looked tired, but the corners of her mouth couldn't hide the happy smile.

She tilted her head and gently touched the baby's wrinkled and red face, as funny as a little monkey that had just emerged from its shell.

In Jiang Jinhe's eyes, this child could not be called pretty, but she felt a natural fondness for him.

She suppressed her discomfort with the bloody scene, observed the midwife's every move attentively, and carefully asked about the details of postpartum care.

If her family's financial situation wasn't so tight, she would have kept her mother-in-law and taken good care of her for a month.

The first cry of the baby in the room was heard outside the door, and the waiting doctor breathed a sigh of relief.

Jiang Xiaolan couldn't wait to rush into the house and run towards the little life beside the bed.

Song Yuyu smiled gently and looked at Jiang Xiaolan, who asked softly:

"Sister Yuyu, is it a brother or a sister?"

"It's a little sister, Xiaolan, do you like her?"

Jiang Xiaolan smiled even more brightly and nodded vigorously:

"Yeah, I like it very much! Xiaolan will help you take care of your little sister in the future."

The childish words made everyone smile. In these difficult days, the arrival of new life is like a ray of hope, warming everyone's heart.

Jiang Jinhe smiled and said goodbye to the doctor, the midwife and her neighbor Sister Zhang. Before leaving, she took out some of her treasured dried meat from her arms as a thank you.

The three of them were surprised to receive this gift.

They had originally helped out of good intentions and never expected to get anything in return, let alone the precious dried meat. Jiang Jinhe did not allow them to be polite and quickly sent them out.

As soon as they went out, they saw many neighbors gathered around, so the three of them hurriedly put the dried meat away properly.

It was almost dusk at this time, and Song Wenqin also hurried back after hearing the news.

Only after Song Yuyu had tidied herself did he go into the inner room to visit her sister and the newborn baby.

Jiang Jinhe used the last piece of dried meat to make a pot of dried meat porridge for Song Yuyu.

Afterwards, she quietly consulted with Song Wenqin:

"My dear, my little sister is weak after giving birth. The doctor said she was already malnourished, and now she needs to be breastfed. She needs to be taken care of. How about I go hunting with you in the mountains tomorrow?"

Song Wenqin has had little success recently, and Jiang Jinhe has asked to go with him many times, but he has repeatedly rejected her request considering that there are often wild beasts in the mountains.

After hearing this, Song Wenqin still firmly opposed it:

"No, my lady. I just encountered a black bear the other day. The mountains are too dangerous. I'm already in danger all alone. Bringing you along will only increase the risk. I absolutely cannot agree to this!"

Although Jiang Jinhe felt disappointed, she also understood that Song Wenqin's concerns were not unreasonable.

He didn't know any martial arts and wasn't physically fit, so traveling with him would only be a burden to him.

Seeing her gloomy expression, Song Wenqin mistakenly thought that she was worried about food shortages, so he made a promise:

"Don't worry, my lady. I will definitely be able to hunt and return with food tomorrow. I have set many traps in the mountains according to your suggestion. Perhaps we will find something tomorrow."

Seeing that he was so determined, Jiang Jinhe stopped arguing.

Fortunately, the food stored at home can last for a while, so there is no need to worry about food for the time being.

These days, apart from taking care of the store in the morning and evening, Jiang Jinhe stays at home the rest of the time, cooking different kinds of delicious dishes for Song Yuyu, just to help her recover as soon as possible and the family get through the difficult times together.

Song Yuyu had an extremely comfortable confinement period. Her milk supply was plentiful, and her baby grew up plump and white. Even Jiang Xiaolan benefited from this blessing, and her face gradually became rounder.

They thought about naming the baby, but no matter what they called him, he still felt that it was not right, so they just affectionately called him "Little Dumpling".

After all, the child shed his wrinkled and rosy appearance at birth in just a few days and turned into a chubby little cutie.

Song Yuyu expressed her gratitude to Jiang Wanyan many times:

"Sister, these days are the happiest time of my life. They are even more beautiful than the Chinese New Year in previous years!"

Although my parents were still alive at that time, as a daughter, I always had endless work to do even during the Spring Festival and I was never full.

She even thought about letting the child take Jiang Wanyan's surname, but Wanyan declined with a smile.

That day, Jiang Wanyan had just stepped out of the door to go to the store when people from the first and second branches of the Song family came uninvited.

He said he came to visit his sister, but he had nothing in his hands and didn't bring any gifts.

How can you visit relatives without bringing some thoughts?

Song Yuyu became nervous when she saw them and quickly hugged her sleeping child tighter.

Jiang Xiaolan also felt nervous. She stood by the bed with her arms open, as if to shield Song Yuyu from the wind and rain.

"What are you doing here?"
