After becoming a widow, I became the mother of seven children

After giving birth to the child, Yan Qingqing began confinement. During this time, Yuan Huiniang and Mrs. Xu both contributed a lot.

The little girl was also growing at a speed visible to the naked eye. Yan Qingqing was stunned to find this little girl pleasing to her eyes, and she felt more and more that this child had the potential to be a beautiful woman, so she let her.

After Mrs. Xu changed the baby's diaper that day, the little girl soon fell asleep, and then gently placed her next to Yan Qingqing.

Mrs. Xu smiled and said: "Second sister-in-law, this girl is very well-behaved. Except for humming when she is hungry and wet, she sleeps well the rest of the time."

Yan Qingqing tilted her head and glanced at the child, who was fair and well-behaved.

Then Mrs. Xu said again: "This child has been born for several days. Isn't it time to give him a happy birthday?"

Yan Qingqing thought for a while and replied: "It's a little late to send the wedding noodles now, and there's no time to organize it. I think I can hold a full moon banquet for her later."

Mrs. Xu nodded after hearing this and said, "That's fine, I'll have to do something grand when the time comes. I only have one child, Xiang Bao, in my life, and now that I have some spare money, I want to do something about it, but I'm not feeling satisfied."

Yan Qingqing could see that Mrs. Xu really liked children, so she comforted Mrs. Xu and said: "I think Xiang Bao is a good child. In fact, I don't think there are many children. If one child is filial and can stand up to several, it will be troublesome if he is not worried." The more, the greater the debt.”

Mrs. Xu thought about it for a while, but this was the truth. Their Xiang Bao was obedient and filial, and he was really a good boy.

At this time, Yuan Huiniang came in with a bowl of chicken soup and said, "Mom, the chicken soup is ready. You can drink it while it's hot."

Yan Qingqing felt her stomach full just looking at the chicken soup. She couldn't resist eating the best food for a month. Yuan Huiniang had been making chicken soup for her every day since she first went to bed.

Yan Qingqing couldn't bear it anymore and said, "Hui Niang, are you going to kill all the chickens in our house right away?"

Yuan Huiniang said nonchalantly: "It's okay, mother, there are several chicken farmers in our village. I have made an agreement with the village chief's grandma. If we don't have enough, we can buy from them."

Yan Qingqing suddenly felt a little scared. Hui Niang was usually quite smart. What was happening today?

Mrs. Xu on the side burst out laughing when she saw this. Yuan Huiniang looked at her with some confusion. Ms. Xu quickly explained: "Silly boy, your mother has had enough chicken soup, so you can't give your mother any other tricks. .”

Only then did Yuan Huiniang come to her senses and defended in a low voice: "But the doctor said that drinking more chicken soup is good. It will not only help my mother's recovery, but also help her produce milk. Aren't I afraid that my sister won't have enough to eat?"

Chicken soup can produce milk, and besides, there aren’t many good things in the countryside. Yuan Huiniang couldn’t think of other things.

Yan Qingqing said: "Hui Niang, in fact, many things are edible during confinement. I can eat whatever you usually eat, as long as it is lighter with less salt and oil."

Although Yuan Huiniang has never heard such a statement, since Yan Qingqing said it, it must be right.

So he quickly said: "Mom, then I will do it again for you."

Yan Qingqing waved her hand and said: "No need, you have worked hard to do this, next time."

After saying this, Yan Qingqing picked up the chicken soup and started drinking it. During this period, Yuan Huiniang and Mrs. Xu discussed what would be a better name for the little girl, because she didn't even have a serious name these days after she was born.

Yuan Huiniang said: "I think our family's Jinxiu's name is quite good, but it's a pity that such a good name has already been used by that girl, otherwise my sister-in-law's name would be quite good."

Mrs. Xu also said: "The name Jinxiu was given by my second sister-in-law. It's really nice, but I believe my second sister-in-law can definitely come up with a better name."

After Yan Qingqing finished drinking the chicken soup, she put the bowl aside and said, "I did think of a name, how about Li Xiangyang? The heart is like a flower and tree, born to face the sun."

Mrs. Xu recited the name twice and said, "Although I don't understand what the second sister-in-law said, Xiangyang is a good name. It's the same character as her brother. She will definitely be promising in the future." .”

These days, the family status of boys and girls is different. Boys are usually named according to their ancestral pedigrees. Girls can be given whatever name they want, and some even don't have a name and are called Yuan Niang Er Niang San Niang according to the day they were born.

Unless you are particularly favored at home, you can only follow the words of your brothers.

Yan Qingqing took the name Qing from her elder brothers, which shows how much the Yan family dotes on her.

Thinking of this, Yan Qingqing suddenly wanted Mrs. Yan to come. Although they only met once, Mrs. Yan's love for her was not fake at all.

When Old Mrs. Yan said she wanted to come to serve her during confinement, she would definitely come because of how much Old Mrs. Yan loved her daughter, but she didn't expect that Yan Qingqing would come early.

Thinking of this, Yan Qingqing considered whether to take over Old Madam Yan, so as not to let Old Madam Yan down.

As a result, before Yan Qingqing could send someone to pick up Mrs. Yan, Feng Fenghuo arrived.

Mrs. Yan complained as soon as she walked in with a small baggage on her arm: "Why didn't you send someone to tell your mother that you had a baby? Those three little brats lied to me and said you only had a month to live.

If I really wait a month to come back, you won't be able to have your confinement period. "

Yan Qingqing was very happy when she saw it was Mrs. Yan, and said with a smile: "Mom, I was planning to ask Xiang Ping to pick you up. Why did you come by yourself? Did my brother and the others send you here?"

Old Mrs. Yan replied: "I'm not that old yet that I can't walk, and besides, just walking a few dozen miles can still trouble me.

I had a dream last night that you were giving birth. I couldn't wait for a moment to pack my things early in the morning.

As soon as I entered the village, I heard someone commenting that you had given birth to a little girl. "

Yan Qingqing quickly helped Old Mrs. Yan sit down and rest. Old Mrs. Yan waved her hands and said: "It's okay, just lie down and see if the clothes I sewed for my granddaughter are good-looking. I didn't know whether it was a boy or a girl. I just chose it." I picked up some mediocre ingredients.”

Yan Qingqing took a look at the clothes sewn by Mrs. Yan. The stitches were fine and the fabric was soft. Even if Yan Qingqing didn't know women's clothing, she knew that this was much better than Yuan Huiniang's craftsmanship.

Turning it over again, Yan Qingqing was shocked to see that this was actually double-sided embroidery.

Yan Qingqing looked at Mrs. Yan and asked, "Mom, did you embroider this? I didn't expect you to have such skills."

Old Mrs. Yan said proudly: "My mother was the best embroiderer when she was working in a wealthy family. Later, she accidentally injured her hand and was no longer suitable to be an embroiderer. But she can still sew and mend."

Your mother taught you this when you were a child, but unfortunately you were not born with this material, and the things you made cannot be seen at all.

You said that if you had learned how to do it, you wouldn't have suffered so much in your husband's family. "

Yan Qingqing remembered that this was indeed the case when the original owner was a child, but the original owner didn't know that Mrs. Yan's embroidery was so good.
