Chapter 410: The Dian Wife
Li Sanniang didn’t know that Mrs. Jin was going to drug her.
After a busy day, Li Sanniang dragged her somewhat tired body back to Li's house. She saw Lu Zhu'er coming to greet her at the door. Facing Lu Zhu'er, she called her "A'Niang" sweetly. Li Sanniang smiled like a flower. .
"Sanniang, someone has come to deliver you a letter and something today.
Wash your hands quickly and go take a look. The things are in the west wing and the letter is in the main hall. .”
"My letter?"
Li Sanniang never thought that someone would write to her. After all, most of them are oral messages these days. That is to say, high-ranking nobles are more particular and will leave a message in advance if they come to visit.
After Li Sanniang cleaned her hands, she led Luzhu'er to the main hall, picked up the letter, and looked at the small characters on it, then she remembered that Mrs. Guo Wu (appeared in Chapters 179-181, Chapters 203-205 Appears in all chapters, Appears in Chapters 330-332) When she got married, she indeed said she would write to herself.
“It turns out to be a letter from Mrs. Guo Wu.”
Open it and read, “Doctor Li, Zhan Xinjia, I have arrived in Suzhou with Lang Xu”
In fact, Mrs. Guo Wu didn't write much, she just talked about being an official in Suzhou with Lang Xu alone, not knowing many people, and she was usually a little lonely.
Reading this letter, Li Sanniang felt that Mrs. Guo Wuxian regarded her as a close friend. There were some complaints in the letter. Although the writing was cryptic, she could still feel it.
Of course, it is also mentioned in the letter that along with the letter are some local Suzhou specialties sent by servants. If Li Sanniang likes it, you can write to it and she will send someone to give Mid-Autumn Festival gifts to Chang'an next time. When the time comes, you can give it to Li Sanniang as well.
Putting down the letter, Li Sanniang picked up Luzhu'er by her legs: "Let's go with Aniang to see what specialties Mrs. Guo Wu has sent."
The west wing room we arrived at , at first glance, there were local specialty cloths, and some oil-resistant snacks. The most surprising thing was that there was a basket of pears, which looked pretty good. They should have been placed in the ice cellar earlier.
"Sister-in-law, just take out all the food here and eat it. If you don't eat it, you may not be able to keep it."
So, after finishing dinner today, the Li family's digestion fruit is Pears.
“This Lady Guo Wu is really an honest person. After traveling to such a far away place, she still remembered to give Sanniang some local products.”
“It was also Sanniang who was honest first. Only then can I get such a reward.
Sanniang, you wrote the letter later and left it.
The person who came to deliver the letter said he would go back after March 3rd. ”
After putting Lu Zhuer to sleep, Li Sanniang lit a candle and wrote a reply to Guo Wuniang.
Not only did he thank her for her thoughts and gifts, but also mentioned something about Chang'an. The interesting things that happened in the city recently also clearly stated his worries about her health.
Such an emotional reply made Li Sanniang very satisfied and felt that she was worthy of the pears sent by Guo Wuniang.
The next day, it was still very cold. After rubbing her hands and taking the hand stove prepared by Mrs. Li, Li Sanniang and Qiu Xiang got into the car on the 19th and rushed to Yongpingfang in the cold wind.
This morning, three strange people came. A woman with a big belly, followed by two men who looked to be about the same age, entered the hospital together.
What Li Sanniang finds strange is that these two men are very careful about women. At first, Li Sanniang guessed that one was the woman's Lang Xu and the other was her brother.
However, listening to what the three people said during the consultation seemed even more strange.
Although Li Sanniang felt strange in her heart, as a doctor, she still needed to see a doctor, so she asked: "When was your last menstrual period?"
See Li Sanniang The woman looked troubled and said softly: "Don't be surprised, madam. I am asking this to estimate the approximate birth date of the child. I am asking for the safe delivery of the child.
Madam, but I can’t remember? "
The woman looked embarrassed, but she still looked up at Li Sanniang: "Female doctor, I have an approximate date for this day.
That’s right, that’s right, that, I just want to ask, ask.”
Li Sanniang didn’t urge her, she looked at the woman patiently and waited for her to finish, but the person behind the woman was taller Some of the men became a little impatient and directly interrupted: "We are here to ask if the child in Taohua's belly is the husband? "
Li Sanniang was stunned, how do you say this? Then through the three people talking about you and others, Li Sanniang figured out what was going on!
Taohua is the wife of a short man. She and the short man already have two children. However, they live in three cities outside and have no land, so their life is very difficult.
The tall man also had a hard life. He dragged his age and managed to get a wife under the arrangement of the official family. As a result, the wife couldn't bear the hard life, so she and Lai The hawker who was selling goods on the streets ran away.
The older a tall man gets, the harder it is for a tall man to find a girl to like him.
With no other choice, the tall man still wanted a son to carry on the family line, so he found a short man who worked odd jobs for the merchants together.
"I want a son, but I can't marry a wife with this condition. But I still have three mud houses. If you can let your mother-in-law give me a son, I will sell one mud house and give you ten "Two taels of silver."
Nowadays, only seven or eight taels of silver is enough to buy a young man who is seven or eight years old. As soon as the tall man said this, the short man became a little excited.
After that, I went home and talked to my mother-in-law, Taohua.
Peach Blossom was unwilling and rejected the short man straight away.
"How can it be done?
I am your mother-in-law. If I give birth to children for others, what does that mean?
I am not that sleazy person who does business with a half-closed door! "
"Oh, peach blossom, such a peach blossom, this is not the same thing! ”
No matter what the short man said later, Taohua did not agree to this.
The turning point was that Taohua’s five-year-old child became ill. The money for medicine was one thing. Taking care of the child was one thing. Not being able to go out to work is another thing.
For the sake of her children, Taohua compromised.
But the problem was that in order to treat the child, Taohua couldn't wait for two months, so she went directly to the tall man's house.
She got pregnant smoothly. The tall man kept his word and sold a mud house directly, giving Taohua five taels of silver first.
However, today it is impossible to tell whether the child is a tall man or a short man.
So, when Li Sanniang asked just now, Taohua blushed and was embarrassed to speak.
"Doctor, please take a look, is there a little husband in Taohua's belly?"
"This is your child, regardless of gender, what are you going to do?"
"Oh , we made an agreement, if it’s a husband, no matter whether it’s my son or not, I want this baby.
If it’s a girl, I don’t want it.”
"What did you say?"
Dear children, how can we solve the bad habit of staying up late?
Ah, it’s so difficult, so difficult. . . .
I don’t want to sleep at night and I don’t want to think about it in the morning. . .
Have you seen the news? Recently there was a very funny news from South Korea, saying that men can cancel their military service if they have three children. . .
I really wanted to die laughing. I thought Korea was different. Only men can give birth there. . .
Fortunately, the response was so strong that it was cancelled.
It is not surprising that South Korea’s fertility rate fell from 0.84 to 0.78.
