Rebirth at the starting point of happiness

Su Qiuyue couldn't answer nor make a decision for others. Even if she could go to the hospital for surgery in time, where would she get the money?

Nowadays, if a family works hard for a year and saves enough for the family's food and clothing, assuming no illness or disaster, it would be considered a great success if they can save a hundred dollars.

A caesarean section costs several hundred dollars, plus there are the subsequent nutrition costs, etc., which is not a small matter for a family.

What's more, there is no guarantee that this person can be kept.

But seeing that person was gone like that, Su Qiuyue felt mixed emotions.

The child was fine, and how the family dealt with the situation was none of their business, so Aunt Li took Su Qiuyue back.

"You are not her, nor are you her family. You, a little midwife, cannot decide her life or death.

Even if she wants to live again, she has to meet the conditions. This is fate." Aunt Li could understand Su Qiuyue's thoughts.

It’s just that sooner or later you’re going to encounter these things, and when you encounter them so often, your heart will become hardened.

I wouldn't be as excited then as I am now.

The blood on Su Qiuyue's body froze quickly as soon as she came out, forming a hard spot on her clothes.

Whenever she accidentally bumps into someone while walking, she can still remember that scene, as well as everyone's expressions at that time.

On the contrary, she had no recollection of the expression on the mother's face at that time. She didn't know whether she really didn't pay attention or she didn't dare to think about it.

She remembered her motionless and numb husband, her nagging and flustered mother-in-law, and her silent father-in-law. Everyone else in the family had hidden themselves away.

In fact, they are all honest people, but there is no absolute right or wrong when it comes to life and death. Just like Aunt Li said. It's too late.

You can only choose to die at home or on the way to the hospital.

Su Qiuyue didn't know how she got home. She lay down in bed and slowly closed her eyes. It was as if everything was finally over.

"You said this kid is a stubborn one, why does he have to be a midwife? Can't an ordinary doctor do it? He's lost his mind this time.

The blood on the clothes scared me when I entered the room. I'm sure it can't be washed out." Xu Feng sat on the kang and cursed Su Qiuyue in a low voice while doing her work. She was so angry that she threw the needle and thread in her hand into the basket.

"She probably didn't study hard before, and when something unexpected happened at home and she wanted to learn and there was no one to teach her, she became persistent."

Sun Yanqiu also sighed. It was Aunt Li's youngest son who sent Su Qiuyue back and walked her all the way into the house.

She really looked like she had lost her soul, and it was really worrying to see her.

He didn't say a word when he entered the room, and his face was dazed. She and Xu Feng were so scared that they quickly asked him what was wrong.

Aunt Li's son only said that his mother came back and told him that she encountered a patient with heavy bleeding, and he didn't know anything else.

The two knew as soon as they heard it, it must be a bad person. Otherwise, Su Qiuyue would not be like this.

"Alas, even if they are not midwives, ordinary doctors will always see dead people. But midwives are involved in life and death, and she is not even twenty years old after the Chinese New Year. She is too young. She will be better once she has more experience." Sun Yanqiu said in a low voice.

"I know that, but I feel bad for her. Look at Xu Jing, she's so old, but she's still so willful and doesn't seem to have any brains.

Xu Hua is even better. He is still climbing high up the tree.

Look at the two sisters. Xinyue is also a hottie outside, but she is very thoughtful in doing things. She has to watch over Xu Hua in order to prevent her from getting into trouble.

Look at Qiuyue again. She is well-taught by her younger sister, motivated, and considerate in her dealings with others. She looks good, but we don't know how much hardship she has endured behind the scenes.

There is no one to rely on at home, so I have to be cautious in everything I do. I have to think ahead of everything.”

The next day, I thought Su Qiuyue would be the same as yesterday, but unexpectedly, when I woke up, Su Qiuyue was normal again.

"Are you okay? Your sister and I were terrified when you came back like that yesterday. We thought it would take you some time to recover."

Seeing that she was in high spirits again today, Sun Yanqiu couldn't help but speak.

"It's okay. I was thinking about something else yesterday." Su Qiuyue said. She had died once before, so she wouldn't dwell on this matter.

Yesterday I saw a woman die during childbirth. It was the first time I saw so much blood. Life was doomed in just a few words.

She was so absorbed in her thoughts yesterday that she first thought about her children, her man, her family, and her marriage. Later, she didn't know where her thoughts were anymore.

A good night's sleep will do the trick.

Look, the sun has risen again today, and it’s still a very nice sunny day.

Su Qiuyue started to cook delicious food at home like before and continued to study with her sister.

When the time agreed with Da Zhang came, Su Qiuyue went to the town, left some food there and took away the coal that Da Zhang had sent.

Now I have planted a lot of vegetables in my space, mainly those that are easy to store, such as spinach, eggplant, beans, tomatoes, and cucumbers.

Su Qiuyue asked her family to help freeze the ice. She wanted to build a small ice house in the warehouse in the space to freeze the tomatoes.

The rest can be steamed and frozen, and eaten next winter just like fresh ones.

This time we can only give the fresh vegetables to Da Zhang, because by the time he transports them to his brother, they will have wilted or frozen.

When Su Qiuyue returned to the brigade, she went to find the brigade leader and said that her classmates said the weather this year was abnormal, so they asked someone to buy some coal.

If you buy a small quantity, ask the team if anyone wants to buy.

The captain was a little surprised, but Su Qiuyue must have had her purpose in asking.

At that time, being able to go to university was highly regarded by others. People believed everything that intellectuals said 100%.

So the captain didn't doubt Su Qiuyue's excuse of asking someone for help and her classmates' excuse at all.

"Qiuyue girl, you want to buy coal. Is it very cold this year?" asked the team leader.

"Uncle Captain, we don't know exactly what happened, but we just heard that the weather this year is abnormal. It's winter now, and it's either cold or snowy. These are the only two things I can think of.

When I came back and heard from my sister and others that it was freezing rain this year, I was worried that this winter would be longer. Now the snow is so heavy that the mountain is closed and we can't get firewood even if we want to, so I asked someone to bring me some coal.

There's a lot of them over there, so just ask the captain if other families in our team want some. If they do, we can buy them together." Su Qiuyue explained nervously.

She was still afraid of being suspected. This time, she really didn't want to see anyone in the team get into trouble. They wouldn't freeze to death, but frostbite and illness would also be troublesome.

"Girl, thank you first. This matter happened too suddenly. I will discuss it with the old branch secretary and others, and then notify you when the time comes, okay?" The captain quickly replied to Su Qiuyue.

"Okay, then uncle, tell me as soon as you finish your discussion. The snow is getting heavier, and it will be difficult to transport it here." After Su Qiuyue finished speaking, she said a few words to the team leader and left.

The team leader was very quick and gave Su Qiuyue accurate information within two days. All the coal team members bought it.

I gave Su Qiuyue a total amount, and then we discussed the price. Su Qiuyue originally wanted to go with the market price, but there were still shipping costs and so on that were not easy to ignore.

Su Qiuyue added a little bit according to the coal price in town.

The captain knew the price of coal, and although the coal Su Qiuyue asked someone to bring was a little more expensive, it was still a bargain. Now you can't buy it in the town if you want to.

It was agreed that it would be delivered to the brigade intersection in a few days. The brigade leader would then ask someone to pull it back and then distribute it again.

The money was given in advance. Su Qiuyue didn't expect to make another fortune. Of course, she wouldn't think the money was too much.

At the appointed time, she ran to the brigade intersection in advance, put the coal there, and went back to find the brigade leader. The brigade leader asked people to bring it back, and then distributed it according to the previous order. The rest belonged to the brigade.

Most of the people who bought coal in the team thought it was easy to buy, and if they missed this opportunity, there would be no such store anymore.

Although the team leader also shouted on the loudspeaker and the old man also said that this year was abnormal, everyone just thought that if it was a little colder and the snow was heavier, they would fall down.

I didn't expect the weather to change so suddenly.

Su Qiuyue was sleeping soundly in the middle of the night when Dahuang started whining and waking up the three people who were sleeping in the room.

Su Qiuyue opened her eyes and dazedly felt that her head, which was exposed outside, was a little cold. Her nose and ears were cold.

She got up and wanted to see what was wrong with the dog, but as soon as she got out of bed, she got goose bumps all over her body.

This is not right!

Su Qiuyue's house has two layers of windows and a fire wall, which makes it much warmer than most other homes. Even in the coldest winter, it is not so cold that you have to get up in the middle of the night.

Could it be that the stove went out? I usually put coal dust in the kitchen stove before going to bed. I mix broken coal with water and press it on the charcoal fire in the stove. It will burn slowly for half a night and keep the temperature in the house.

I got up in the morning and lit the fire again, which just brought the temperature in the house up.

Su Qiuyue quickly put on her clothes and wanted to go to the kitchen to see if the stove was off.

As soon as she opened the door, she felt a chill and closed it subconsciously. The door handle was cold.

Su Qiuyue quickly struck a match to light the oil lamp, then quickly put on her clothes. When she looked at the time, it was past midnight.

If the stove is not extinguished, it is low temperature.

In the Northeast, the temperature is so low that pouring water into ice is no big deal. In the past, when old people described the cold outside, they said that men had to hold a small stick when they went out to pee, otherwise they would freeze halfway through peeing and have nothing to hit them with.

Although it is exaggerated, it is true that people cannot go out, and the temperature may even drop to minus 40 degrees Celsius.

Su Qiuyue felt particularly cold right now. The noise she made when she got up woke up Sun Yanhong and Xinyue.

Xinyue didn't know what was going on, but Sun Yanqiu noticed that there was some panting in the room and she also felt that something was wrong.

"Xinyue, you go to sleep first. The stove might be out."

Sun Yanqiu quickly put on her clothes and went to the kitchen to help.

There are chickens in the west room, so the stove needs to be lit as well.

Su Qiuyue simply lit the pot and boiled some water to wash her face, feed the chickens and feed the dog in the morning.

After everything was ready at home, Su Qiuyue put on a hat and scarf, and let Sun Yanqiu watch her jump over the wall to her cousin's house.

They were still sleeping when she arrived.

"Cousin! Uncle! Aunt! Open the door! Open the door quickly!"

Su Qiuyue knocked and shouted. It was indeed a big drop in temperature. The temperature was so low that she had to hide in her scarf to breathe in, otherwise it would stimulate her trachea and feel like a needle prick, and she couldn't help coughing.

Just for a moment she felt cold.

It was quiet in the middle of the night and soon my cousin got up and hurried to open the door for Qiuyue.

"What's wrong? What's wrong with you in such a cold late at night? What happened?" Seeing that she was anxious, her cousin quickly asked her to come into the house.

"I'm fine. Da Huang woke me up in the middle of the night and I realized that the room was cold. Uncle quickly got up and heated the kang to cool it down."

As Su Qiuyue entered the house, she felt a wave of heat surrounding her.

"I felt cold just now too. Why did it suddenly get cold? You should go back quickly. I'm getting up too." When my cousin reached the door, he also realized that it was very cold outside.

It's not the coldest time of the year yet, when water turns to ice. And it got cold so suddenly.

He has a large family, all sleeping on one kang, so they won't feel cold for the time being. But when they really start to feel cold, they're afraid that their children will catch a cold.

When her cousin got up, she felt relieved and hurried home.

When I got home, I took out the sheepskin vest and put it on.

"Xinyue, you can sleep later. I have to go find the captain. If we don't take care of this, I don't know how many people will get frozen while sleeping."

Su Qiuyue saw that her sister was half asleep, so she asked her to get up.

"I'm going to the Youth League Home." Sun Yanqiu also put on her clothes and hurried out.

"Put on your crescent sheepskin vest. It's very cold outside. If all the educated youth are up, it will be too cold for you to come back at daybreak."

After saying this, Su Qiuyue handed the waistcoat to Sun Yanqiu and went out with her.

When she arrived at the captain's house, the captain had already gotten up and was looking for someone to go door to door to notify them to get up and light a fire.

"My dog ​​scratched the door, and I thought something was wrong with it, but when I entered the house, the dog was shivering from the cold.

I also noticed that the temperature had dropped. I had already notified the cowshed to hurry up, as the horses and cattle in the brigade could not afford any mishaps.

Qiuyue, you are a great person. You thought of informing me. Go back soon. I have already asked someone to notify every household.

In an old house like that, people would freeze to death in less than half a night, let alone a night."

The captain talked to Su Qiuyue and started to get busy, and Su Qiuyue also hurried home.

When she got home, she saw dim lights in the houses of her neighbors. It must be her cousin who woke them up.

There were sounds of knocking at the door coming from far and near.

When she got home, the house was already warm. Su Qiuyue looked at the time and continued to sleep on the kang without taking off her clothes.

Xinyue waited for her sister to come back and fell asleep peacefully.

When Su Qiuyue woke up again, it was Sun Yanqiu who came back and knocked on the door and woke her up. It was time to get up and make breakfast.

"Oh my god." As soon as Su Qiuyue opened the door, Sun Yanqiu quickly squeezed in. She quickly closed the door.

Su Qiuyue was surprised to find that her eyebrows, eyelashes, and hair had turned white, including the area around her dark blue scarf.

"I'm freezing. I'm covering my forehead. It's too cold outside. My eyes are frozen even if I open them wide." Su Qiuyue panted as she squatted in front of the stove. Her cotton shoes were frozen through in just a moment.

"Hurry up and take off your clothes and get on the kang. Make some hot tea to warm yourself up. I'm going to cook." Su Qiuyue quickly let her into the house.

Xinyue had already gotten up. All the windows at home were frosted over, and the house was a little dark. With nothing to do in the morning, she listened to the radio.

"You said it wasn't snowing. There were some clouds in the morning, but when I came back it looked like it was going to be sunny."

After dinner and cleaning up, Sun Yanqiu added fire to the stove and sat on the kang and said.

"It's still so cold on a sunny day! I just went to the bathroom and the wind blew like a knife on my face as soon as I stepped out of the door."

Xinyue just went to the toilet and came back frozen. Her sister asked her to use the urinal in the west room and then empty it when the time comes.

"You should stay at home quietly these days. You will freeze to death if you go out today." Su Qiuyue warned.

But just as he finished speaking, he heard the door being opened forcefully and then quickly closed.

Then I saw Xu Feng carrying Xu Ling in. They took off their shoes as they walked in and got on the kang in a few steps.

Sun Yanqiu and Xinyue quickly took Xu Ling and quickly took off her shoes and hat. Then they stuffed her under the small quilt on the kang.

"What's wrong? Why are you carrying a child here in such a cold weather?"

Su Qiuyue quickly went to get a cup and poured them some water.
