Chapter 248 (1/2)
After hearing this, Mei Xiaoran was speechless.
Later generations all know that the colostrum of puerpera is the most nutritious and can improve children's immunity. Although it is like water, it makes people feel that there is no nutrition, but it is really a good thing! However, in this era, we do not understand these things. After the birth of a newborn, the first thing we do is not to let the baby eat milk first, but to use boiled water to irrigate the child for a whole day until the fetus is completely discharged. Some children even in the first three days of life are in the water, hungry cry, can not eat a mouthful of milk.
And the most precious colostrum, but also often be squeezed out of the maternal do not, wasted in vain.
But Mei Xiaoran couldn't say that. Even if she could speak out the scientific argument of later generations, would anyone present believe it? Even her mother would not believe her words. After all, people have certain limitations in this era. Everyone's ability to understand is limited. What she said is nothing. No one will believe her words, let alone listen to them.
Therefore, Mei Xiaoran can only watch her little cousin be forced to drink boiled water by his two aunts, and her fourth aunt is also forced to squeeze out the most precious colostrum and throw it away
Even if she doesn't want to see her cousin again, she doesn't want to waste her time.
At this time, Li Mingyun looked at the time. Before seven o'clock in the morning, she wanted to go home to cook, but now she was so excited that she planned to take Mei Xiaoran back to her mother's house Ye Zi has such a big baby. She has to tell her mother what she says.
However, she went to her mother's home to notify her, but only reported the good news. The real process should be Cheng bin!
According to the local custom, when a boy is born, he will bring oil cake and rice wine to his grandmother's home to report the good news. If a girl is born, he will bring the fried dough sticks and sugar, and wrap them in paper and tie them with red rope, so that everyone can see what happened This is called good news.
In addition, sometimes, in order to save time, the son-in-law will take the post to the father-in-law's house, write down the date of ordering rice and noodles on the post, and invite the old mother-in-law to eat the rice and flour wine banquet about 12 days after the birth of the child. This is the custom of this place, every family is like this.
”Xiao bin, do you remember that you should go to our mother's house to report good news in a short time. Do you know the rules? Ask your sister if you don't know
”OK, I see. I'll get ready when I finish watching the children. I'll go to Beiguan later.”
After that, Li Mingyun took Mei Xiaoran to Beiguan's mother's home without stopping.
Grandma Li is a busy person. After the busy farming in spring, she set up a small stall selling sugarcane at her own door and wholesale some sugarcane. Although it is only a small profit, it also makes her very busy!
When Li Mingyun's mother and daughter arrived, Grandma Li was putting sugar cane. When she saw them coming together, she was surprised, ”why did you two come so early?”
”Grandma, my fourth aunt just gave birth to a fat boy, weighing eight pounds and six taels.”
Li grandmother a listen, immediately happy smile opened flowers, ”really born? I've been thinking about it for a few days. I was going to go and see the leaves, but she gave birth
”Mom, how are you preparing eggs? You're a grandmother. You have to prepare a big gift. We aunts can't come here empty handed. ”
