Chapter Eleven Twins
Aunt Liu was still slumped on the ground and looked at Zhang Youcai in fear and said, "Youcai, aren't you here to settle the score with me?"
Zhang Youcai said in confusion: "Set the accounts? What accounts? Do you owe me anything?"
Seeing that Zhang Youcai didn't seem to be coaxing her, Aunt Liu stood up and said, "No, it's nothing, it's just that she's old, and her legs are a little unstraight, so she collapses on the ground."
Zhang Youcai smiled and said to Aunt Liu: "What are Aunt Liu saying? Aunt Liu is not old, so how can she grow old!"
Talented! Don’t say these words to make me feel relieved. Aunt Liu knows it myself. By the way, talented, is there anything wrong with you when you come to find Aunt Liu?
"Aunt Liu, that's right. The wealthy wife Jianmei is about to give birth again. I'll come to you and ask you to help me!" Zhang Youcai said with a smile.
Aunt Liu saw Zhang Youcai speak so sincerely. In addition, she failed to help Jianmei deliver the baby successfully last time, so she readily agreed to Zhang Youcai and said, "My Aunt Liu must help Jianmei deliver the baby well this time to ensure that she will deliver a fat grandson smoothly and safely to you. Otherwise, Aunt Liu, I would have no shame to see Fugui again."
Zhang Youcai said with a smile: "Aunt Liu, you are a famous midwife in all corners of the countryside. I believe in you, old man."
As she was talking, Aunt Liu cleaned up and followed Zhang Youcai to Zhang Youcai's house. Aunt Liu looked at Jianmei lying flat on the bed with a big belly. Seeing Li Jianmei's belly bigger than watermelon, Aunt Liu was a little scared. After all, most of the pregnant women in the ten miles and eight villages were delivered by her head, but who had such a big belly that had to worry her a little.
Aunt Liu touched Jianmei's belly. Based on her years of experience, she knew that it was about to give birth soon, so she ordered Fugui to boil some hot water to bring it.
As soon as Zhang Fugui walked out of the house and was about to burn water, he suddenly heard the pain from Jianmei in the house, and he became nervous from time to time. Beads of sweat were coming from time to time on his forehead, and his hands were holding the firewood tightly, as nervous as if he was giving birth to a baby himself.
Seeing that Jianmei was about to give birth, Aunt Liu asked Zhang Youcai to go out quickly and wait outside the house. Zhang Youcai was a little nervous and took out his cigarette, dug a dry tobacco, lit it with a match, and started smoking it. Fugui was busy making a fire, while making a pot of water and putting it on the stove, looking into the house from time to time.
Li Jianmei was lying on the bed holding the quilt tightly, shouting in her mouth with a sound of Ai Yiya, and her whole body was sweating profusely. Aunt Liu shouted while delivering her baby with her hands: "Jianmei, try hard... and try hard... and then... and quickly... and come out soon...
After a while, a burst of crying and crying from the baby came from the room. After hearing this, Zhang Fugui was stunned and then muttered to himself: "I am a father... I am a father... I am a son... I am a son...
After hearing the cry of the children in the room, Zhang Youcai suddenly collapsed on the ground, tears of excitement flowing out to the corners of his eyes. He raised his head and looked up at the sky and shouted loudly: "I, Zhang Youcai, have a grandson... I have a grandson... After saying that, he continued: "Fugui, your son, Fugui, has a son... I have a son. If you have a spirit in the sky, you must bless the rich baby with peace and safety!"
Zhang Youcai walked to his son Fugui's side and looked at Jianmei who was lying quietly on the bed and said, "Jianmei, thank you for your hard work. You gave birth to two big fat grandsons for the old man. You have made great contributions to our family! If Fugui dares to bully you in the future, tell me, look at the old man, I won't deal with him well."
Li Jianmei had just given birth to two children and was very weak, but she still said with difficulty: "Dad, I believe that Fugui will not bully me. I am also happy that I can give birth to two big fat boys for Fugui!"
"Okay, happy, happy, wait for the old man to go to the village to find a few eggs so that you can replenish your body. You should rest well now and eat more nutrition, otherwise you won't have milk for the baby!" Zhang Youcai said.
Looking at the two dolls lying on the bed wrapped in a quilt, their skin was white and tender, and they looked so sensible. This made Zhang Youcai recall the scene of his son Fugui's birth, which was exactly the same as this! Now that his son Fugui has grown up, he has become a father, and he has grown old, but he has not been like this for generations. He has passed on generation after generation, passed down from generation to generation, and passed down from generation to generation.
Zhang Youcai walked out of the house happily and prepared to go to the village to talk about these good things. First, to make the villagers happy, and second, to find the villagers to ask the villagers for some eggs so that they can replenish their bodies for their daughter-in-law Jianmei.
Zhang Youcai walked and beat the gong while holding the gong, shouting at his mouth: "My son has a baby with wealth... Jianmei gave birth to two big fat boys for the old man... My old Zhang family also has two baby with handhelds...
When the villagers heard Zhang Youcai's gong ringing, he heard him say that wealth and baby were there, and they all came out to congratulate him.
"Hey, Uncle Youcai, I just heard you say that Jianmei gave birth to two big fat boys. Isn't that true?" Zhang Dazhuang said in confusion.
"It's true that Jianmei has indeed given birth to two big fat boys for our son Fugui, but Aunt Liu personally delivered the baby! If you don't believe it, you can ask Aunt Liu," Zhang Youcai responded with confidence.
When Zhang Youcai mentioned Aunt Liu, everyone in the village believed that this was the truth. After all, no midwife in this village could be as capable as Aunt Liu.
Zhang Dazhuang smiled and said to Zhang Youcai: "Uncle Youcai is still a wealthy brother with ability, so he gave birth to twins in this life. If it were someone else, he wouldn't be that capable."
"Dazhuang's words are correct. Have you heard of anyone from all over the country who gave birth to twins and gave birth to two big fat boys, and only my son Fugui is as capable as his. After all, he doesn't think about who Fugui is. He is my Zhang Youcai's seed, so my son Fugui must be able to do it," Zhang Youcai said showing off.
"Now my daughter-in-law Jianmei has given birth to two fat boys. Now she is weak. The villagers can see if anyone has eggs at home, so that the old man can take them back to repair them for their daughter-in-law Jianmei. Just think that it was borrowed from all the villagers with a shy face. When our situation is better, we will return it to the villagers," Zhang Youcai continued.
"Uncle Youcai, although our family is not very good, there are still a few eggs. I will give them to you later. Just think that I wish my wealthy brothers a happy son!" Zhang Dazhuang said to Zhang Youcai.
In this way, the whole village gathered twenty eggs from house to house. These twenty eggs were so precious in the eyes of the villagers! Generally speaking, the villagers were reluctant to eat them. They had to cook them during festivals or during confinement, add some rock sugar and drink the soup to make them nutritious!
