They had already seen the child first and were extremely envious.
After eating, the child would yawn and look around. From time to time, she would smile. Then, when she was tired of playing, she would sleep.
After looking at the child, they came to see Liu Sanniang,
They sat down by the bed.
Liu Ju said, “Sanniang, do you feel uncomfortable there?”
Liu Hui and Liu Zhi’er were immediately interested. “Liu Ju, you experienced it first. Tell us what it feels like.”
Liu Ju smiled shyly and said, ‘It’s very painful to give birth, and it’ll be very uncomfortable there. It took me a long time to recover from the pain. I heard everyone will feel the same way. You two are about to give birth too.”
After starting a family, they naturally had loss time to get together. However, when they had time to get together, they could talk about many private things.
The most common topic was children.
Liu Hui and Liu Zhi’er looked at Liu Sanniang expectantly and worriedly. They were about to give birth. Although they had hoard many people talk about giving birth, they still wanted to hear it from Liu Sanniang.
Liu Sanniang was a little embarrassed, but she still replied truthfully, “I-I don’t think it hurts much.”
Liu Hui and Liu Zhi’er were a little shocked. “Does it really not hurt?”
Liu Sanniang nodded. “Not much.”
What she remembered was that it really did not hurt. It went very smoothly. Not to mention Liu Hui and the others, even she could not believe it, but the truth was that it did not hurt.
Liu Ju was a little envious. “Sanniang is so lucky. It’s good that it doesn’t hurt.”
To all the women in the world, giving birth was like stepping into the jaws of Hell. Most of them had to suffer a few rounds of torture before giving birth.
Liu Zhi’er and Liu Hui quickly grabbed Liu Sanniang1 s hands and said in unison, “Sanniang, bless us. We also want it to go smoothly. It’s best if it doesn’t hurt. Pain is what we’re most afraid of.”
Liu Ju did not know whether to laugh or cry. She said, “I also want to be lucky. When 1 give birth again, I hope it won’t hurt.”
Liu Zhi’er smiled. “Yes, yes, yes. It’s about time for you to get pregnant again. I don’t know why wo women have to suffer so much. It’s so tiring to give birth.”
Liu Hui said, “It’s all for the continuation of the family line.”
Liu Zhi’er sighed, “Sanniang, will Chu Yan mind? My mother said that it’s best to give birth to a son for the first child. This way, it won’t matter if the second is a boy or a girl,”
Liu Sanniang was stunned. “He, he likes Xiang’er, 1 don’t have milk, and Xiang’er only drinks goat milk,”
Liu Hui and Liu Zhi’er were stunned. “How come you don’t have milk.”
Liu Sanniang shrugged. ”1 don’t know cither, but there’s nothing 1 can do.”
After she gave birth, she felt as if she had never given birth. She did not need to take care of the child and did not feel any pain.
Thinking about it carefully, she felt that it was very strange. Could it be that she was really too lucky?
Were the heavens compensating her for making her alone in her previous life?
Liu Zhi’er held Liu Sanniang’s hand and smiled, “Sanniang, then you’ve really married the right person. Chu Yan treats you so well. Speaking of which, I realized that we’re all doing very well after marriage.”
Liu Ju did not have a good life before she got married. Although the man she married was poor, they had managed to get by in the past few years and gave birth to a son.
Liu Sanniang married Chu Yan and gave birth to a daughter.
Liu Zhi’er married a scholar in Ling County and was pregnant.
Liu Hui married a cloth merchant in Yong County and led an extremely good life.
Liu Sanniang smiled. These three were all friends she had been on good terms with in her previous life. Now that they were living a happy life, she was overjoyed.
They chatted and laughed when there was a knock on the door. Liu Ju and the others stood up. Chu Yan came in with exquisite food. Seeing such exquisite food, Liu Hui and the others smiled.
“Sanniang, rest well. We’ll come to sec you and Xiang’er next time.”
Liu Sanniang nodded and asked her mother to send them off.
After eating and drinking her fill, she wanted to sleep. Although giving birth did not feel too torturous, her body still could not take it. She was so weak that she wanted to sleep all the time.
Liu Sanniang yawned and asked Chu Yan, “How’s Xiang’er?”
She could see the child grow up every day. When Xiang’er was obedient, Tang An would let her sleep beside Liu Sanniang for a while. Although Liu Sanniang did not have milk, she was still Xiang’er’s mother.
Chu Yan said calmly, “Sister-in-law is with her. She won’t be hungry.”
Liu Sanniang looked at Chu Yan and hesitated for a moment before asking, “Do you not like Xiang’er very much?”
At the mention of the child, Chu Yan was not excited or happy at all. Liu Sanniang felt that the way he talked about his child was as if he was talking about a stranger.
Chu Yan reached out and touched Liu Sanniang’s hair. “What are you thinking? Of course I like our child, but no matter how much I like her, you are still the most important in my heart,”
Chu Yan planted a kiss on Liu Sanniang before going out.
Liu Sanniang lay on the bed and pulled the blanket over her head. Why was she still so shy…
She was so shy that she couldn’t help but wonder if she had really been married to Chu Yan for two years. Had she really given birth?
Just as Liu Sanniang was doubting herself, she heard the cry of a baby outside.
The baby’s cries interrupted Liu Sanniang’s thoughts. She thought that Xiang’er must be hungry.
As expected, not long after, the cries stopped.
Soon, Tang An came in and placed Xiang’er beside Liu Sanniang. “Xiang’er is so easy to take care of. She will sleep after eating. 1 thought that you might want to sleep too, so 1 brought Xiang’er over,,”
