Chapter 253: Catching up with the good times
April 20th, the early summer wind was warm.
The opening of Qingzhu Maternity and Children's Hospital, which had been prepared for many days, was attended by an endless stream of people who came to congratulate them. There was a special scene among them. Pregnant women were carried into the Maternity and Children's Hospital one by one on soft sedans. These were all previously booked and they will be in the hospital. When the baby is born, there is a bed in a separate room, and family members can stay with her.
Aunt Shanhua and a few friends looked at these soft sedans and said with emotion: "When we gave birth to babies, how could we be so rich? We could still go to the kitchen to cook before giving birth. My third child was born in the middle of the night. Mother Wen I’m done before I come.”
"That's because you are healthy and strong. At that time, my family cooked me two eggs and a bowl of noodles. I worked hard for half a night, and it was pretty smooth. But after giving birth, I was sick for half a year. I had a headache when I was exposed to the wind, and I felt like eating meat when I smelled it. I vomited, and then the baby got older and got better after weaning. You see I am so thin now, it was at that time that I lost weight."
"What are you talking about? I heard that giving birth to a baby is dangerous in the Central Plains. Those girls can't run around like we do here. They often never leave the house without taking a step forward. What kind of strength can that body have? I heard that there are many manpower Even if she was born, she would just give up and leave a milk baby for the stepmother. How pitiful.”
"This is not necessarily due to physical reasons. Many girls here have died due to childbirth. Now that such a hospital has been opened, childbirth is much safer. When there is heavy bleeding, those doctors with superb medical skills are better than Wen Po is much more stable.”
"That's the reason. My daughter-in-law is only two months pregnant. When she is eight or nine months old, I will send her to live here."
"Hey, then your wife has missed the opportunity. I just asked people that if you come to the hospital on the opening day, not only will the cost be free, but the medical expenses for the child until he is two years old will also be waived. No wonder they are so anxious for this day. come over."
Qingzhu Hospital opened six months ago, and the Maternity and Infant Hospital was also completed at that time, but has never been opened. This time the news was released early, and they were surprised at first. Women always give birth at home. If you don't have money, you can give birth on your own, and if you can barely make ends meet, you can ask your mother-in-law to come to your home. If you have money, you can hire a doctor to wait outside the door. How can you live directly in the hospital?
But Wen Yunxi has a high prestige in Lanzhou, and everyone has inexplicable trust in her. In addition, with such a huge discount, she doesn't have to spend a penny. She just needs to make an appointment and someone will come to pick her up. She doesn't have to worry about it at all. The birth will happen naturally. Won't miss it.
"Hey, what are you still doing here? There are a lot of people around there. Let's go take a look."
As I got closer, I realized that there were two people standing in the middle, with blue cloth strips tied on their sleeves. One of them was turning a large wooden box. After a few moves, the wooden box spit out a ball with words written on it. The other one was spinning a large wooden box. One person takes the ball and goes to the side to get something corresponding to it.
Aunt Shanhua watched as the man took a cute-looking rag doll from the frame and handed it to a strong black man not far away from her. The rag doll was a bit weird in his hand, but the man smiled. His teeth were missing and he looked very happy.
"What are you doing?" she asked.
"Look at that flag, it says lottery. Someone gave you a leaf when you entered the gate. You give the leaf to the person who turns the wooden box, and you can win the lottery."
While they were talking, another person finished smoking. What he took out was not a doll, but a string of copper coins, which he hung on his wrist. He then carried the child on his shoulder and ran towards the commercial street.
"Xiao Fei is so lucky, let's go buy snacks!"
The child's laughter spread far away, and Aunt Shanhua felt better and better when she heard it. She also took out the leaf and handed it over. She was unlucky, it was an empty number, and she didn't get any prizes, but it didn't affect her mood. Waiting for her friends After drawing the prize, I strolled towards the commercial street.
The commercial street was officially rented out more than half a month ago. It is still being renovated and there is not much to see. However, there is a table setting area in front of the commercial street. In addition to the people setting up in Pingxiba, some stalls have also been rented out. Not only is the food better than before, More, we also added some fun activities, such as ring roping and pot throwing, and now there are many people around. The last time Xuan Zeyi got burnt by cutting in line here, he was pushed into the hot soup pot by Shu Yun in front of everyone. Even after more than ten days, the burning feeling was still very deep, so he watched from a distance Don't dare to go there again.
"Hasn't Zhuo Yun appeared yet?"
It stands to reason that as the second owner of Pingxiba, Zhuo Yun should come back to attend the opening ceremony, but he asked people to look around, but no trace of Zhuo Yun was found.
The guards wanted to make up for their mistakes and searched carefully, but no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't change the person. "Commander Fang returned to Black Rock City two days ago. I guess Zhuo Yun is not too busy there, so he should return to Pingping." of Xiba.”
My Marquis thought about revenge every day, but Xuan Lin and Wen Yunxi couldn't move and couldn't move. Zhuo Yun went to Xilin Mountain to train new soldiers. Outsiders couldn't get in, so they could only wait. Finally, they waited for this opportunity. Naturally, I don’t want to let it go.
Xuan Zeyi snorted impatiently. Just as he was about to find a place to sit and wait, he saw two horses running in the distance. One white and one black were only a few inches apart. They seemed to be competing with each other and running extremely fast.
"Hey!" In front of the door, Zhuo Yun reined in his horse, turned around and raised his eyebrows at the person behind him, "You lost again, what are you going to give me this time?"
Ye Lu also reined in his horse and smiled heartily, "General Zhu can take whatever he likes. I won't say anything about it."
The two of them are both the four generals of Hulan, and they are quite similar in age. They have been on good terms in these days. After training, they often ride horses and play together. Occasionally, they will also bet on some winnings. This time the women's and children's hospital opened, Ye Lu heard that Later, I also came over to see the excitement.
This movement was so high-profile that even the vendors running the stalls couldn't help but run out to see, "Who is that person next to General Zhuo?"
Zhuo Yun was tall, and many men were not as good as her, but that young man looked half a head taller than Zhuo Yun. Although his face could not be seen clearly, his figure was slender and quite imposing. The picture of the two standing together was quite harmonious.
"I haven't seen him before. Judging from his appearance, he might also be from the Lan Guanjun."
Nowadays, the Guarding Army has been carefully selected, and there are many such tall ones, and many of them are former military officers. It is not surprising to have such magnanimity.
Although Ye Lu is not well-known in Lanzhou, the tribesmen still know him. Hearing the conversation between the two, he immediately said: "That is the nephew of our Yanye tribe leader. He was our general before and now he is in the Lan Huan Army." One of the four generals, he is only 20 years old this year and will definitely rise in the future. You should all pay attention. "
The Yanye tribe is good at farming. Although they have a large number of people, they have never had much fighting power against the outside world. Ye Lu is considered to be the best among them, and the tribesmen like him very much.
"Do you think General Zhu and General Ye are a good match?"
"I think it's suitable. They look like a match made in heaven. One is the patriarch's daughter, the other is the patriarch's nephew, and they are close in age. Isn't it a perfect match?"
Su Qiao happened to hear this when he was passing by, and couldn't help but snorted. It was inappropriate, it was obviously an eyesore!
