Lin Dongfang was relieved now.
"You are at a critical moment now, so shouldn't you be careful?
The due date is only a few days away. I thought, shall we go to the county tomorrow?"
"County?"
Mingzhu stopped.
"Didn't you say you were going to give birth in the commune? Why are we going to the county again?"
"It's been very chaotic in Beijing lately, so Mom can't come over. I mailed all the things here in advance.
But we don't have any other relatives here, only one is close to us, but she is still a child. She has no experience in giving birth.
We have to plan this in advance, so as not to be in a hurry when we get there. I have prepared all the things that Mom said in the letter, and I am afraid I won't remember the others when the time comes, especially when I get busy.
Another thing , let alone other things, it is the personnel and medical facilities that are more reassuring in the county.
Besides, it is not very far. Let's go early and find a guesthouse near the hospital. Even if we wait until the start of the disease before going to the hospital, it will be faster. Don't you think this is true? "
Mingzhu understood in her heart, and the smile on her face softened a lot.
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
Lin Dongfang also smiled.
"Okay, then I'll come to the village chief tomorrow morning to get a letter of introduction, and then go to find Mr. Liu San, and we'll go to the county tomorrow."
Jian Jian didn't know anything. It was hot, and the child would lie at home and read comic books when he had nothing to do, or run to the mountains with Jian Jian when it was cool. The periphery was indeed quite hot and stuffy, but the deeper we went, the fewer weeds there were, the more trees there were, the fresher the air was, and it was getting cooler and cooler. Jian Xin also liked it very much.
Jian Xin was five years old, and Jian Jian wanted to train her intentionally or unintentionally. Not to mention training her to be a big guy, Jian Jian still hoped that she could have the ability to protect herself.
She really doesn't know how to teach her child, but Jiandan is more familiar with this self-defense skill than other ones. According to her instinct, the first step is to take her child for a morning run to train her basic physical strength.
From spring to now, the child is indeed tenacious. At the beginning, she followed the leader and was out of breath after running for a while.
Slowly, according to the simple formula, she adjusted the rhythm, and she could hold on for longer and longer. Her breathing rhythm became more and more stable and peaceful, and her footsteps became lighter and lighter. Jiandan had to say that the child's understanding was really good.
Jiandan learned mostly self-defense and killing moves in her previous life. Naturally, self-defense is more suitable for her children now. The time is short, the moves have the same posture, and the strength is naturally far behind.
Jiandan is not in a hurry. This is a long-term persistence. She has not laid a good foundation yet, so she can't be impatient.
However, she always takes her child with her when she goes into the mountains. Living at the foot of the mountain, going up the mountain is part of life. She must have a certain understanding of the mountain. She must not panic when encountering any situation in the mountain, and must have the ability to respond agilely.
In the past few years, whether Jian Xin lived with her here, or followed Cheng Chao and his men to the garrison, or even followed his uncle Jian Wenxiu to go anywhere, there was no guarantee that he would need to go up the mountain at any time. This could be considered a life skill, and he never knew when it would be useful.
Jian Dan didn't know what kind of personality Jian Xin had before, but now the child is indeed getting more and more cheerful. It's quite happy to follow her running up and down the mountain.
"Sister, is that right?"
"Yes, use your elbows, yes, you must be fast, and take the opponent by surprise, it is effective only when the opponent is not paying attention,"
"Hey!"
"Yes, that's it! Okay, take a break first, stretch your hands and feet, and then we will go inside and see if we can kill a pheasant, and then we will go back and stew the chicken, okay?"
"Okay, and we also want to eat roasted chicken!"
"Eat roasted chicken, then your brother Cheng Chao's roasted chicken is still delicious,"
However, Cheng Chao hasn't come for almost a month, and even the carefree Jian Dan has found something wrong. Even if he is on a mission, Cheng Chao will not leave without leaving a word, not to mention Cheng Jin. It is indeed not normal that he hasn't come for so many days and there is no news.
"Sister, Brother Cheng Chao hasn't come for many days."
"Yeah, maybe he's busy with work?"
Jian Dan was a little uneasy, but she still comforted the child first. However, the child suddenly had an idea,
"Sister, didn't Brother Cheng Chao and Uncle say that we can go see them? Let's go see them?"
"Ah? Go see them?"
Jian Dan had never thought about this. She was not a proactive person, but when the child said this, she was also a little moved.
Or, go and see?
Not to mention that they have known each other for such a long time, even after they recognized each other, Cheng Chao and his family often came here.
"Then, let's go and see?"
"Yes, sister, let's go quickly, let's kill a few more pheasants and let Brother Cheng Chao roast them."
The two sisters walked a little further inside, but did not enter the house. However, they did not kill any pheasants, but encountered a few wild boars. They were afraid that they would rush over and hit the child again, so Jian Dan simply pushed the child to the tree and took out the machete roughly.
The garrison was not far from the village, and there were dozens of miles of land. Jiandan didn't want to torture her legs. There was no work in the fields these days, so Liu Weimin directly gave her a letter of introduction. She went back to find Liu Sanye.
The wild boar couldn't be brought over openly, so the two sisters went empty-handed.
There were also villagers going to the commune in the car, as well as Mingzhu and her husband. Jiandan and the others gathered together and talked in a low voice,
"When is the due date? I'll take Xinxin to do some things and come back to find you at the hospital."
I told Liu Weimin about going to the garrison, but I didn't tell anyone else, so I used something as an excuse.
"Normally there are still five or six days. Lin Dongfang is worried and insists on going to the hospital in the county town, so don't go with him."
"Okay, it's safer to go to the county town."
At this time, giving birth in rural areas was mostly done by folk methods, finding a midwife and giving birth at home.
Midwives mostly rely on experience, but the environment at home cannot guarantee cleanliness, not to mention that if something happens, it will be really difficult.
They went to the hospital to give birth, and Jiandan agreed.
"Don't be nervous, go and check it out first, there will be no problem."
Mingzhu laughed out loud,
"Look at you, how old are you, and you are still telling me this, as if you know it."
"Hehe, this is just to comfort you."
When they arrived at the commune, the educated youth and villagers got off the bus, and Jiandan also got off the bus here. Before leaving, he comforted Mingzhu,
"Don't be afraid, we will probably be back tonight or tomorrow, and I will go to see you then."
He also reminded Lin Dongfang,
"Take good care of Sister Zhuzhu, and make sure to take good care of the child."
This is purely the poison of film and television dramas and novels. There are always many farces of this kind in hospitals.
Lin Dongfang was already nervous now. He was so tense that he didn't even smile anymore. He looked serious.
"Don't worry. Even if something happens to me, Mingzhu and the child won't suffer any harm."
