“Sister Li, today the Governor ordered me to lead the Zhejiang army to pull out the camp and go to Suzhou in three days, the surrounding Japanese are serious and Suzhou is not safe, your stomach is getting bigger and bigger, so you’d better stay in Yingtian to recuperate and wait for the birth of your baby.”
After holding Li Shu for a while, Zhu Pingan said the news of moving to Suzhou and urged her to stay in Yingtian.
When Zhu Pingan finished speaking, he felt like he was stung by a thousand year old scorpion on his thigh and received a pinch, he almost didn’t scream out.
When she reacted, Li Shu had long since broken free from her embrace and was glaring at herself from across the room, as if she was looking at a heartless man.
“Zhu Pingan, I travelled thousands of miles from the capital to this town with a big belly, what kind of peace am I looking for?”
Li Shu, with her big belly, aggrieved and red eyes, glaring at Zhu Pingan with anger and rage, asked back with a double entendre.
“It’s still not for you, this heartless ……”Li Shu said, tears followed, I see pity.
Pregnant women are already easily emotional ……
“I know, I know, it’s all my fault.”Zhu Pingan got up and held Li Shu in his arms to comfort her.
Li Shu twisted in Zhu Pingan’s arms in dissatisfaction, wanting to break free from the embrace.
“I am sorry that you have travelled so hard, I don’t want you to be tired.”Zhu Pingan hugged Li Shu and leaned on her ear, saying warmly.
Only then did Li Shu stop twisting, and was honestly held in Zhu Ping An’s arms, but still grunted.
“I want to be close to you, I want to have you by my side when I give birth, I want you to be the first to see our baby, I ……I’m afraid that in case something goes wrong during labour, I’ll still be able to see you again ……”
Li Shu leaned her head on Zhu Pingan’s shoulder and said softly, her tone choking up a bit when she said it at the end.
Since ancient times, a woman giving birth to a child was a very dangerous thing. Especially in ancient times, when medical care was not developed, the risk of giving birth was even greater. A woman giving birth to a child may encounter many unpredictable dangers, such as blood clots, haemorrhage, obstructed labour, incorrect foetal position, the foetus is too big, the birth canal is too narrow, the mother’s body is too weak, the mother can’t stand the intense and long pain, etc……. Whether for the mother or for the child, it is called “over the ghost gate”.The baby’s body is too big, the birth canal is too narrow, the mother’s body is too weak, and the mother can’t endure the intense and long pain. It was only natural that Li Shu was worried about this.
“Blah, blah, blah, blah, what are you talking about, how can there be any mishaps, don’t worry, I won’t let you have any mishaps.”
Zhu Pingan hugged Li Shu tightly, in his heart, he blamed himself, Li Shu’s age is still a bit young, it’s all because of his own greed.
“Brother Zhu lighten up, I can’t breathe anymore ……”Li Shu was touched and angry.
Zhu Pingan was busy loosening up a bit, scratching his head in a sarcastic manner, then with a pat on the head, he took out a small pamphlet from his pocket and gave it to Li Shu, explaining, “Oh, I almost forgot, this is the preparation I made for your labour.”
“You still know about labour?”Li Shu was surprised when she saw this booklet titled ‘Matters of Preparation for Childbirth’.
“I didn’t understand it before, and after reading the book and asking for advice and summarising my experience, I naturally understood some of it.”Zhu Pingan explained.
In addition to looking through the medical arts and asking the physicians for advice, there was more experiential knowledge of modern childbirth that he understood.
Li Shu was instantly moved and did not go for the book, but held Zhu Pingan’s hands and said in a delicate voice: “Brother Zhu don’t need to bother any more, you are usually attentive to public affairs, you work from morning to night, so you don’t need to bother studying these women’s matters. I’ve made good preparations, medicinal materials ah supplies ah all prepared, also invited Auntie Wang to come, Auntie Wang is the capital’s famous gynaecology and obstetrics saint, especially good at delivering babies, after Auntie Wang’s hands, all safe and smooth it.”
“I know that you have made all the preparations, however, it is not too much to prepare.”Zhu Pingan held Li Shu’s hand tightly and said with a serious face.
“Alright, then let’s see how you prepare.”Li Shu leaned into Zhu Pingan’s arms and opened the booklet titled Matters of Preparation for Childbirth and read in a delicate voice, “Chapter 1, prepare a warm and clean delivery room.”
“I have studied the books and summarised the data on births in the four seasons and found that summer births are more smooth and winter births are relatively more difficult. This is because of the weather. In summer, the weather is warm and the body feels comfortable, so if you give birth in a warm environment, the mother will feel comfortable, which is conducive to labour; in winter, the weather is cold and the ground is freezing, so it is hard to give birth on such a cold day; if you can prepare a warm and clean maternity ward in winter, it will definitely be conducive to labour. You are giving birth in winter, so we need to prepare a warm and clean delivery room for you.”
Zhu Pingan explained.
Li Shu’s eyes lit up when she heard this, having a warm house, giving birth in a warm environment, being able to be more comfortable and suffer less, was naturally excellent, and the baby would not be afraid of the cold after birth.
Thinking of this, Li Shu’s eyes narrowed into a crescent moon, ”Brother Zhu is meticulous, then when we arrive in Suzhou, have someone temporarily transform a floor dragon in the residence, and the room will be more or less warm. Well, when the time comes, put in a few more fire pans, boil more hot water, close the doors and windows more tightly, and add curtains.”
“The fire pots are exempt, don’t get gas poisoning by then, it’s not good instead.”Zhu Pingan sniffed and quickly waved his hand.
“What is gas poisoning?”Li Shu was surprised.
“Inadequate combustion of coal and other things will produce a toxic gas, and if the room is not ventilated, it will poison people without them realising it.”
Zhu Pingan explained simply.
“Oh, I seem to have heard Aunt Wang say that there are people in the rich and noble families in the capital who have been poisoned by coal ……”Li Shu was thoughtful, “But without a fire pit, if we only rely on the floor dragons, the indoor temperature won’t be much warmer.”
“Don’t worry, I had the camp’s smiths, in their spare time, make a heating device, the stove is retrofitted with a water storage tank, which is connected to the heating pipes, and when the time comes, it will be installed in the delivery room. The cooker is placed outside, the heating pipes are arranged in the delivery room, using hot water to generate hot air to circulate the heating, it can make the indoor temperature as half warm as in early summer, which is both safe and warm, and also clean and hygienic.”Zhu Pingan said as he hugged Li Shu.
“The heating device can make the room as warm as early summer? Really?”Li Shu opened her small mouth wide in surprise.
Although she knew that Zhu Pingan never spoke big words, she still found it hard to believe when she heard something that defied common sense.
“When have I ever lied to you. As soon as we arrive in Suzhou, we’ll put heaters in the room, and then you’ll know that what I say is true.”
Zhu Pingan said with a confident face.
“Giggle, when you say ‘as soon as I get to Suzhou’, that means you agree that Cur will go to Suzhou.”
Li Shu blinked her big eyes, containing a smile containing a pretty and demonic, her cherry mouth slightly curved up, a smile with a hundred winks.
“I dare not agree.”Zhu Pingan flattened his mouth.
“Giggle ……”Li Shu laughed happily and turned back to kiss Zhu Pingan, “Brother Zhu, you are so good.”
“It’s you who are really good. I, Zhu Pingan, have the honour of three lifetimes.”Zhu Pingan kissed Li Shu back.
“You didn’t think so when you were a child.”Li Shu’s pair of big eyes covered with water and mist, charmingly blanked Zhu Pingan and started to rehash old scores.
“I didn’t know better when I was young.”Zhu Pingan blushed.
“Liar, then you still teach us to sing that labouring bastard snapping song ……You, you clearly have been plotting against me for a long time, bad guy ……”Li Shu glared at Zhu Pingan, her whole person was like a ripe peach.
Zhu Pingan blushed even more.
