Pan Jinlian's petty bourgeoisie life

Forget it, just find two familiar singers and singers to come and have fun.There are only a few tables for the banquet, but there are so many people up and down, so in short, dozens of tables should be set up for the running water banquet, and the rewards must be prepared. Relatives and friends always send gifts during the festival, and prepare for returning gifts. OK "

"The in-laws' rituals must also be prepared. In this way, the most economical cash is several thousand guan. As for the vegetables and meat, the tenants will send them, and the curtains and lanterns at home have already been prepared, which can be regarded as saving. gone."

Mrs. Chai and Li frowned when she heard that, all the money of the Chai family was in the hands of the master of the Chai family, and he didn't know how much he had filled into the yamen, only seeing that there were fewer and fewer shops, and even the expenses had to be calculated.Seeing what she said, Mrs. Chai Lin didn't dare to answer. Anyway, she was not in charge of the family, so naturally she wouldn't get involved.

Pan Jinlian listened to them talking for a long time, her waist and legs began to ache, and sweat slowly appeared on her head. When Mrs. Chai and Li saw her, she asked her to go back by herself, and sent the girls and women to the hospital with her. at the door, for fear that something might happen to her.

************************************************

Back in her yard, Pan Jinlian supported the table and sat down slowly, but she was short of breath. Ying'er hurriedly brought over the sour plum soup:

"The best rock sugar and sour plum soup, my lady, hurry up and try it."

Pan Jinlian took a sip from Ying'er's hand, picked up the round fan and slapped it vigorously a few times before she got her breath:

"The weather is so hot that it seems to melt."

"We can't feel it, the lady is pregnant, it's like a fire, that's why I feel hot."

Ying'er also learned some knowledge from the Shen family's old lady, so she couldn't help persuading, and the Shen's old lady also brought a bowl of white fungus over, and softly scolded Ying'er:

"Girl, sour plum soup is a restraining thing, and it's so cold. It's not good to drink too much. Come and take this. The lady should eat more lotus root, white fungus, these white and tender things, so that she can give birth to a white and fat baby." Fat boy."

Pan Jinlian couldn't help but have black lines on her face. What does eating these have to do with giving birth to a child, but since she was kind, she couldn't refuse, so she could only accept it, and asked if there was any leftover, and asked Grandma Shen directly Zi and Ying'er went down to divide:

"You all should eat something in this hot weather, otherwise I'll feel a little guilty if I eat it by myself."

Both of them were not polite, thanked them and shared the rest of the bowl.Pan Jinlian sat idle for a while, only thinking about what Chai Li said about Chai Jin's coming to visit.I remember that the Water Margin in my memory was precisely Li Kui who followed Chai Jin and killed him by mistake, causing the Chai family to suffer a catastrophe. However, the Chai family had no ending.

What should I do?

Pan Jinlian's head is also a mess, only half of the money for selling wine recipes is left, she locked it in a box and buried it, but Chai Wu's income was filled to the winery, and rum has not yet been researched The wine was just wasted. If something happened now, I am afraid that the two of them would not be better off even if they did not live on the streets.

How unlucky!

Pan Jinlian was worrying, when she caught a glimpse of the Shen family woman out of the corner of her eye, she called her over to chat with her:

"I always want to sleep, and I can't sleep at night after sleeping too much. You old man has experienced a lot, so tell me about the ways of the world outside. I saw that it was not easy for those people who walked around the streets to do small business, How much spare money do they have to buy a house? How much do they spend on weekdays, and what do they eat?"

The old woman of the Shen family didn't dare to sit down, she just stood up and replied:

"They don't have the ability to buy a house. They just rent a house from another family to live in. As for the cost, it is only a few dollars a month for the family to eat. The family also eats meat every half a month. If there is continuous rain You have to go to the grain bank to pay on credit for the weather."

"Are there so many idle houses in this county rented out?"

"Exactly, anyone who has a little money at home and is unwilling to do business will find a place to build a house and rent it to others. It is also a safe way to make money. My lady asked this, but does anyone want to rent a house?"

Pan Jinlian quickly smiled, waved her hands and replied:

"Of course not. I'm just curious. I haven't been out for a long time, and I haven't seen a single person outside. It's just something new to talk about outside. By the way, what shall we have for dinner?"

The Shen family's mother-in-law also laughed it off and didn't take it to heart, she just replied:

"In the evening, there is a roasted pigeon brought back by the officials yesterday, plus two side dishes are enough, and does the lady want to eat meat buns or pancakes? I made noodles at noon."

"Don't worry, the officials have come back early in the past few days, and it won't be too late to ask him."

Pan Jinlian waved her hand and let Shen's mother-in-law go down. She was also confused, so she lay down on the bed and took a nap. When she woke up, it was already evening, and the heat outside had dissipated, revealing a burst of cool air.

Looking up, Chai Wu was sitting at the table with the ledger in his hands and looked at it carefully. He was wearing a blue singlet and looked thinner and thinner.Pan Jinlian rubbed her eyes, her voice became hoarse:

"What time is it? Let's approve some clothes. I'll catch a cold."

Chai Wu turned his head and saw that she was awake, and hurried over a few steps, his eyes were shining like jewels, and he said with a smile:

"Guess what I brought back for you today?"

"The yam cake I asked for in the morning?"

"No."

"Is that the crispy duck?"

"Not at all."

"What it is, I cannot guess."

Pan Jinlian was in a daze, not in the mood to play the game of "guess, I guess, everyone guess", but Chai Wu also made things difficult for her, took a porcelain bottle from the bed, opened it, and approached her:

"Look what this is, our wine is made!"

"Really?"

Pan Jinlian hurriedly asked Chai Wu to bring a cup and poured out a little. It was indeed pure amber in color and smelled very fragrant. Chai Wu took a sip and said proudly:

"The past six months of hard work were not in vain. The master said it was going to be finished in the past few days. I didn't expect to make it today. The taste and color are very good. It is said that I have never seen such shochu in the capital! "

"This is good, this is good, it seems that there is no unparalleled road."

Pan Jinlian muttered a few words in her mouth, she was also very pleasantly surprised, but suddenly felt her stomach tighten, and then inexplicably sank and swollen, and slowly began to hurt, she couldn't help but grab Chai Wu's hand, biting to say something :

"Quick, find the midwife!"

My wife is about to give birth!

The author has something to say: New Year's benefits ([-])

Chai Wu stood there in a daze, muttering:

"Give birth? What is born, who is going to give birth? You are going to give birth!"

As she spoke, she immediately stared at Pan Jinlian with wide eyes, and Pan Jinlian slapped him on the body:

"It's called... the Shen family!"

"Oh, it should be called the Shen family, yes, Shen's aunt! Come quickly, the lady is about to give birth!"

Chai Wulian changed the tone of his voice and shouted at the top of his voice.The Shen family woman rushed in, sat down beside Pan Jinlian's bed, took a look at her blouse, and immediately said:

"The amniotic fluid is broken, so hurry up! The officials should hurry up and find Mrs. Li in the back street, welcome her over here, and quickly boil a large pot of hot water, the more the better, then close all the windows and cover them with curtains." superior!"

That Chai Wu didn't bother to listen to what the Shen family's old woman said, he just wanted to find a midwife with his ears full, so he lifted his feet and ran out, muttering in a low voice:

"Midwife, find the Li family's mother-in-law, find the midwife..."

The Shen family woman hurriedly helped Pan Jinlian onto the bed, and comforted her:

"Don't worry, don't panic, lady just use your strength, giving birth is almost like giving birth, and it will come out after exerting strength! Breathe slowly, don't choke yourself... Yinger come here quickly!"

The little girl Ying'er also rushed in, holding a few pieces of curtain cloth that had been turned out in her hand - they were all prepared earlier - stepped on a stool and hung them on the window lattice, and then said:

"I'm going to heat the water!"

He ran out in a hurry.

The Shen family lady did not dare to leave, she only held Pan Jinlian's hand to encourage her:

"Quick, it's almost there, lady, use your strength."

But Pan Jinlian only felt the pain as if her body was being torn apart, it was so fucking painful, she never felt such pain when she died in her previous life!Anyway, she didn't hear what the Shen family woman said clearly, but instinctively exerted herself to let the things in her body go out quickly.

Not long after, Chai Wu dragged the midwife into the yard, and the midwife was also for Fatty Bai. She blushed from being suppressed, gasped heavily, and kept calling:

"Oh, officer, let me go! My old lady can't stand you pulling me like this!"

"My daughter-in-law is giving birth, so the midwife should feel wronged and leave quickly. After giving birth, I will reward you a lot!"

Chai Wu let go of the midwife while stomping her feet, for fear that she would leave if she was upset. Although Mrs. Li complained, she didn't dare to delay. After taking a few breaths, she ran on tiptoe to the door, and looked at it first. at a glance:

"Are the windows closed? Turn on the hot water quickly, and prepare the chicken soup and ginseng slices. You are also a big family. Has no one told you about this?"

Ying'er hurriedly poked her head out of the kitchen with a smoky little black face:

"Okay, the hot water is ready!"

"Bring it in!"

Mrs. Li nodded her head and walked into the house. The Mrs. Shen was running around in a hurry. Giving birth to her own child and delivering it to someone else are two different things. If she is not careful, it will be a matter of life and death. How can she take care of it?Thinking of this, I hurriedly went out to have a look, but suddenly looked up.
