Chapter 163: Confinement

On December 26, 51 year, that is, the 28th day of the winter month of the lunar calendar, Qiao Lian gave birth to a pair of twin boys.

Qiaolian's birth went very smoothly, starting at more than ten o'clock in the morning, and the child was born at less than two o'clock in the afternoon.

The big one weighs five pounds and nine taels, the small one weighs four pounds, the weight difference between the two babies is a bit big, the small one didn't cry much when it came out, Qiaolian has been holding it in her arms and didn't dare to be careless.

Qiao Lian gave birth to two babies, and her physical strength was very exertional, but fortunately, the two babies did not cry or make trouble, and Qiao Lian slowly stared while lying down.

The old lady was also tired at noon, so she simply stayed on the kang to accompany Qiaolian, and left the rest to Qiaojuan to do.

Qiaojuan worked quickly, and she and Sister-in-law Zhao quickly cleaned up the back room, and then cooked again, leaving Sister-in-law Zhao's mother and son to eat here, which can be regarded as thanking Sister-in-law Zhao for her help.

After eating, Sister-in-law Zhao saw that there was nothing wrong here, Qiaolian's state was okay, and the two children did not make trouble, so she left with confidence.

"Fortunately, my sister-in-law lives close and has time to help, if you expect me to follow nothing, thank you, sister-in-law." Qiaojuan thanked Zhao's sister-in-law while sending her sister-in-law out.

"Look at you, is this worth thanking? Our two families got along well, and your sister and I were also very angry.

Besides, the two families are so close, what's going on with my brother and sister, why can't I come? Alright, you go inside, it's cold outside.

Qiaolian's younger siblings are afraid that they are a little weak, so let's go back and get some food to serve her in confinement, and wait for me to come to see the child in a few days. ”

Zhao's sister-in-law said a few words to Qiaojuan, then walked out of Qu's house quickly, and led her son Zhao Dabao to the east and ran home.

Qiaojuan watched the mother and son of the Zhao family walk away, and then turned around and went back to the house. As soon as I entered the house, I saw Qiaolian waking up, and the two children also woke up and were crying.

The old lady hugged the chubby second child, Qiaolian sat up and hugged the skinny third child, and the third child would cry at this time, although the voice was still quite thin, but there was always a movement.

"Are these two children hungry?" Qiao Juan hurried over, took it from Qiao Lian's hand, and held the third child in her arms and coaxed her.

"You've just given birth, how can you sit up? Hurry up and lie down, with me and my mother here, even the two children can be coaxed over, you can rest well. ”

After giving birth, Qiao Lian was indeed weak and uncomfortable, so she quickly lay down.

"Sister, in the cabinet on the ground, there is a small bag of kraft paper, which is powdered sugar, specially for children to drink, you make some sugar water for them to feed first, I specially prepared a small spoon."

Qiaolian prepared a lot of things in advance, she said that the special glucose powder for babies, newborns can drink some glucose powder appropriately to prevent neonatal hypoglycemia.

Feed the sugar water first, and then feed the child milk powder after a while, the two children, it is estimated that Qiaolian may not have enough milk even if she comes, so she prepared milk powder and bottles and other things in advance.

When Qiaojuan heard this, she hurriedly hugged the third child to look for something, and sure enough, she found a small packet of powdered sugar.

Rinsed two spoonfuls with warm water, took out the very small spoon prepared by Qiaolian, scooped the water and slowly dripped it into the corner of the little baby's mouth.

Maybe it was because the little baby tasted the taste of sugar water, so she didn't cry at that time, and her little mouth made a sound, which made Qiaojuan laugh.

"You little thing, people are a lot of careful eyes, and you know that sugar water is delicious."

As she spoke, Qiaojuan brought the sugar water to the kang and handed the old lady another spoon.

The old lady also followed Qiaojuan's example, scooped the sugar water with a small spoon, and slowly slipped it for the child to drink. Sure enough, after drinking the sugar water, the little baby stopped making trouble, and the two babies were very satisfied.

After all, the child is small and can't drink too much, and after a few spoonfuls of one person, the two babies refused to drink anymore, and fell asleep again after a while.

"These two children are so coaxing, very well-behaved." Qiao Juan put the child back next to Qiao Lian, and then hurriedly went to the ground and brought Qiao Lian a bowl of pig's trotter soup first.

The pig's trotters were stewed yesterday, and after adding various ingredients, they were stewed on the stove for a long time, and the pig's trotters had already been stewed and bloomed, and they were soft and rotten and not hard at all.

Qiao Lian didn't care about any greasy or greasy at this time, so she picked up the bowl and ate the soup with meat, and ate the bowl of soup in a short time.

"What else do you want to eat, I'll make you some more, you need to eat more now, otherwise there will be no milk to feed the child."

I just looked at the cabinet, there are a lot of millet eggs, or I'll go and cook a few eggs for you and boil a pot of millet porridge?

I'm waiting for me to bring you two chickens tomorrow, but I was in too much of a hurry to come over today, and I forgot to take them. ”

Qiao Juan watched her sister finish a bowl of soup very happily, she was very happy, and hurriedly asked Qiao Lian what else she wanted to eat.

At this age, when a woman is confined, it is already very good to be able to eat a sufficient amount of eggs and millet porridge.

If you have the conditions, you may be able to kill an old hen and stew soup, and if you don't have the conditions, you can follow the family to nibble on cakes and eat pickles, anyway, it's good to be full, and it's impossible to eat too many tricks.

"Sister, let's make me a bowl of noodles, our mother made me a bowl in the morning, and it's good to eat.

Millet porridge and eggs will be eaten again tomorrow morning, and the old hen does not need to be in a hurry, and she will rush to eat it in a few days.

I also have two chickens prepared at home, both of which let me kill them in advance and freeze them outside, sister, don't take them here, it's not long for a month, how can I eat so many things? ”

Qiaolian is not one of those little daughters-in-law who doesn't know anything, and the things that should be prepared have already been prepared.

The pig's trotters were stewed and frozen outside in the morning, and the old hen was also stewed and frozen in advance.

The dumplings and wontons are also wrapped out and frozen in advance, not to mention the noodles, eggs, millet, red dates, brown sugar, etc., and the cabinet is full of stuff for her body.

Qiaojuan had already seen it when she was rummaging through the cabinet just now, and she also admired her own girl very much, fortunately, Qiaolian was fully prepared, no matter what she wanted to eat, she really didn't have to be embarrassed.

"Okay, if you want to eat noodles, I'll make it for you, wait." At this time, as long as Qiaolian can eat it, she is not afraid that she will eat too much, but she is afraid that she will not eat.

So Qiaojuan went to cook a few more poached eggs, and the next bowl of noodles was cut with some finely chopped cabbage hearts and a little salt.

Qiaolian has an empty stomach now, and she doesn't care about that, and she eats a bowl of noodles after a while.

This time I finally felt a little bottom in my stomach, "I was holding them before, and I knew that I should eat more, but I couldn't eat, and after giving birth, I felt that my stomach was a bottomless pit, and I always wanted to eat." ”

Qiao Lian looked at the empty second bowl, a little embarrassed, she seemed to be too good to eat.

"What are you afraid of? It's a good thing to be able to eat, and there is no shortage of food at home, so you should eat more.

You have two children, you don't eat much, how can they have milk? It's okay, we all came here at this time, and it's your mother and your sister again, can you still laugh at you? ”

The old lady was very happy to see that her daughter could eat and drink.
