Chapter 363 Wang Jiao Gives Birth to a Child 3
The Zhang family had already made preparations for the birth, with hot water, scissors, straw mats, and baby clothes and blankets.
That's right, Feng Qingxue gave birth on the bed, while others, including Wang Jiao, gave birth on the ground.
The ground was covered with thick straw, and on top of it was a thick straw mat. Under Wang Jiao was a sheet made of several old clothes. This was considered to be a relatively good situation in the production team. Most people gave birth directly in the straw pile, which just fits the phrase handed down from ancient times, "falling into the grass!"
There are two meanings of "falling into the grass", one is to fall into the grass and become a bandit, and the other is the birth of the fetus.
Throughout the ages, most women from poor families gave birth on the straw pile, because people believed that giving birth was a relatively unlucky thing for women. There was a name for the delivery room called the blood room, and men were not allowed to enter to avoid being contaminated by bad luck.
"Ouch, oh, Xiaoxue, you're here, hurry up and take him out for me!"
Wang Jiao lay on the straw mat and screamed, her face deformed in pain.
During her pregnancy, she ate well, never stopped eating, and didn't like to work. Zhang Yuejin spoiled her, and the Zhang family couldn't control her. No matter how Guan Fengqingxue warned her to exercise more for childbirth, she remained the same. As a result, her figure became much fatter than Feng Qingxue's at that time. Her oval face became round, her double chin was very obvious, and there was a thick layer of fat on her waist and back, but her belly didn't look too big.
When Feng Qingxue was pregnant, she didn't gain much weight, but her belly was very big, and her trembling appearance made people tremble with fear.
On the other hand, Wang Jiao's arms and legs became a lot thicker, but her belly didn't look big, which made Miao Fengqin scold her: "Why are you howling? Save your strength to give birth to a child! Xiaoxue is here, what are you afraid of? You are told to eat all the good things, and you don't leave some for the baby. You look fatter than a pig, but your belly doesn't bulge much. Yuejin almost can't hold you!"
This is a perfect description.
However, Miao Fengqin was right. The heaviest pig in the production team weighed only 132 kilograms, and Wang Jiao was estimated to be 140 to 150 kilograms. Isn't she heavier than a pig?
Nowadays, this sentence is not an insult, because in everyone's mind, being fat is a sign of wealth and a blessing.
There is only one fat person among a thousand people, and this fat person must be the richest person. Only rich people with a high standard of living can make themselves fat in this era of food and clothing shortages.
Why is Xi Bao loved by everyone? In addition to his handsome appearance, he is fat, and fat is pleasing to the eye.
"Cousin, take a rest, and call me when the baby is born. I'll ask your aunt to cook egg noodles for you, okay?" Feng Qingxue checked her fetal position and listened to the fetal heartbeat with a stethoscope. Everything was normal, except that the birth canal was only two fingers open.
As soon as she heard that there was food, Wang Jiao stopped crying and started whining, "Hurry up and bring it here, I'm starving."
She usually eats a lot, so her appetite has long been enlarged. Only one or two hours after lunch, she felt her stomach rumbling like a drum.
Yuejin's mother was looking forward to this child. With Zhang Yuejin's reminder, she had prepared early. When she heard Wang Jiao said she was hungry, she quickly lit the fire to boil the pot, added lard and chopped green onions, added water, boiled the rolled white noodles, and beat four poached eggs.
When it was brought to the house, Wang Jiao sat up without anyone reminding her, not afraid of the heat, and wolfed it down in a moment.
After putting the empty bowl in Yuejin's mother's hand, she continued to lie on the straw mat and cry.
