Chapter 96 Oversleep
Li Xiaodie lives in the big house with her children, and Gu Xia is in the small house with only a little kang, and her feet are covered with noodles and cabbage and potato bags. But she doesn't care.
Gu Xia worked very hard every day. In addition to helping work at Li Xiaodie's house, when there were many people in the bun shop at noon, he also had to go to the bun shop to help, and he was so busy that he hit the back of his head every day.
She was very tired every day, but when she talked to Li Xiaodie, she kept an optimistic mood, told her jokes, funny stories, and martial arts novels and TV series she had read.
Because Gu Xia had seen postpartum depression online before.
Her husband couldn't come back every day, and the family was not in good condition and didn't have good food. My mother-in-law didn't care about it. She was afraid that she would think too much, so Gu Xia tried her best to make her happy.
Li Xiaodie had never read a book, so she usually wandered around the one-point area at her doorstep. She was fascinated by listening to these stories, and felt that Gu Xia had opened the door to a new world for her, waiting for her to tell stories to herself every day.
Gu Xia knew that now her family didn’t even have a TV, which was too miserable. It would be better to find some time to buy her a radio. It would be nice to listen to storytelling.
But the money is not enough now, the most important consumption is to eat.
Gu Xia had to think about how to make the best meal for Li Xiaodi with the least amount of money so that she could eat better.
Fish soup, tofu soup, bone soup, various porridge, boiled eggs, and made various cakes myself. This was learned from people when I was online before.
After making it once, the effect was very good. Li Xiaodie ate all the pot of cakes, and she felt embarrassed. She touched her bulging belly: "I have eaten too much. It took you so long to make it. I ate it in less than five minutes."
Gu Xia smiled and said, "That's all, it's okay. If you think it's delicious, just eat it. This is not worth much. I'll make it for you. It's okay to make one for you a day."
"No, no! Just make one for me in a week."
Gu Xia smiled and said, "Then I'll make two for you, you can eat a little every day."
Li Xiaodie agreed. She looked at Gu Xia’s busy appearance and felt very disgusted: “I’m really embarrassed to say anything. Even my biological mother wouldn’t take care of her so well. You’re worried.”
Gu Xia said, "You only have this month in your life. Don't be tired or get wet. Keep it well. After this period of time, you are thanking me."
Li Xiaodie nodded, "I won't say anything about your great kindness to me. If there is really any development in the future, I will not forget you."
"That's OK!" Gu Xia smiled, "I just expect you to get rich. You can eat meat and give me a sip of soup."
Originally, it was just a joke, but Li Xiaodie took it seriously, so she wanted to repay Gu Xia well. If she hadn't, she would have imagined how miserable she would be in this confinement period.
It's winter now, and it's not too much to suffer. Li Xiaodie just lies on the kang.
Hot water is always sitting on the stove, and hot water is used to make milk powder and wash clothes. I wipe Li Xiaodie's body from time to time, otherwise it would be too sticky and uncomfortable.
Gu Xia kept doing it every day. After finishing work every day, she fell asleep. She didn't want to say a word when she was tired and had no time to read.
When I woke up that morning, it was white outside. It turned out that it was snowing a little outside.
It was really cold, and the window glass was creaking.
Gu Xia heated the buns and dumplings that had risen last night in the pot and cooked a little sweet potato porridge under it.
While waiting for the porridge, Gu Xia took out some cucumber pickles from the glass bottle, cut them into shreds, put them on chili oil and a scarf, which was what she ate.
Li Xiaodie only drank porridge, ate a little cake made by Gu Xia, and two boiled eggs.
When Gu Xia was eating buns, she thought that Sun Tao only ate buns every day at the stall, and probably she was going to vomit. So she took a bag of noodles to the store.
Sun Tao cried when he saw the noodles. He really wanted to die after eating buns these days, but thinking that Gu Xia had enough to take care of his wife, how could he have the nerve to make any requests?
"Now I want to eat noodles, even if it's a handful of salt, it's delicious."
"How could I let you eat that?" Gu Xia said with a smile; "It's easy to make. I'll go back after I finish making it for you."
After the two of them finished their work, Gu Xia went to the kitchen and stir-fry the pot of noodles with shredded cabbage. She lived in a pot of noodles, beat two eggs, and two plates of pickles for him to put there.
Sun Tao ate voraciously, looking at the old clocks on the wall from time to time. After he finished eating, he had to prepare to steam a pot and sell it for the evening.
Gu Xia helped him choose vegetables and wash the pot. Then he hurried back and helped Li Xiaodie wash clothes, diapers, and clean the room.
Then she helped Li Xiaodie give her head. Soon it was evening. She bought a piece of potato and a few small crucian carp and made crucian carp soup.
After Li Xiaodie had dinner with her, she quickly asked Gu Xia to go to bed: "I'll sleep for a day today, I'll just change the diapers later."
Gu Xia was so tired that his whole body was stiff. He didn't want to say anything more, so he washed up and fell on the kang. It was completely dark outside, and the day just passed.
Fortunately, there are only a few days left, and this month she is simply hell! No wonder the income of confinement nanny in modern society is so high, so it is really not something that people do.
Suddenly, Gu Xia remembered one thing: today is her birthday.
She lay there and suddenly smiled bitterly, even if it was her birthday, she had never been there anyway. I guess the original owner had never celebrated it before, right?
Gu Xia sat up and looked at the snow outside the window, thinking, hoping that this was my last birthday alone. Someone would spend next year's birthday with me. She suddenly thought of Feng Tiansheng. She didn't know how he was doing.
I told him before that I didn’t live in school during the winter vacation and couldn’t communicate anymore. Even if I miss him very much, I don’t know how he is.
Forget it, don’t think about it anymore, go to bed quickly! Gu Xia fell over there and closed her eyes directly, and soon entered her dream.
In the dream, she dreamed that she went to eat hot pot to celebrate her birthday and ate another strawberry cake. She also went to the food city with her friends, ate wontons, lotus leaf rice and pizza, and she couldn't walk anymore.
All the beauty is realized on birthdays.
When she woke up the next morning, Gu Xia felt a huge pain in her waist. She was still too tired yesterday. But she still gritted her teeth and struggled. Looking outside the window, she screamed in shock. The sun was in the middle, it was very late! She was really getting up late, probably Li Xiaodie was going to be hungry, right?
When Gu Xia hurriedly got up and went to order the stove, he found that the stove had already been lit. The stove was hissing, and the fire wall was full of newly washed diapers. It was still ticking water.
