I Rely on Caution to Cultivate to Immortality Chapter 40: Pray
Thinking of the large group of people gathered outside A Ping's house before, Mingran couldn't sit still. Aping's house is not far from Ahua's house, so many people gathered around, how could there be no sound?
He opened the door lightly and got out. He looked carefully along the way. The livestock and poultry locked in the shed stayed in place quietly as if they were dead. If you listen carefully, you can hear breathing. sound. But compare it with the noise made last night, and compare it with the appearance that you don't dare to show your atmosphere now, the frown can't help but become tighter and tighter!
When passing by the pile of prey that has hardly changed, Minran is even more anxious, especially when he sees the empty Aping's house.
How could giving birth be so quiet?
If the child has already been born, it will be even more busy, but Aping's family didn't even light a candle! Everything you can see is pitch black, and you can only hear your own shallow breathing!
At this moment, a very slight aroma suddenly came from the end of Mingran's nose, as if someone had cooked food. But in the middle of the night, who would be free to cook?
Feeling apprehensive, I followed the scent lightly to the largest courtyard in Fuxiang Village - the residence of the old man.
When they got to the place, the mouth-watering aroma became more intense, and Mingran couldn't help but pinch himself. What can be so fragrant? Did the old man cook something delicious without telling everyone?
No way...
Standing on the spot and thinking for a while, Mingran tiptoed and walked into the house. The village was pitch black, but the old man's house seemed to be lit with several candles, which was very bright.
Maybe it's because the place where the eyes are staring at is too bright, or maybe it's because Minlan is too nervous, in the dark night, "slap", a hand is suddenly put on the shoulder, and Minlan trembles, Turning back stiffly.
A pair of bright red eyeballs are right there!
Taking two steps back in a swish, Minran had already grasped the long sword in the storage bag with his right hand, and was about to kill the red-eyed monster in front of him with one blow, but he heard a familiar question.
"Miran?"
Aunt Wang put down the red lantern in her hand, looked at it strangely, and was taken aback by her subconscious retreat.
"You scared me! What are you doing here alone?"
Huanran: ... steal my words?
"It's Aunt Wang. When I woke up, there was no one there, but the old man had a light here, so I went to have a look."
"Is that so? Oh, I'm going, you must be scared? Don't be afraid, come on, let's go in first."
Aunt Wang was beaming with joy and spitting stars flying around, "You don't know yet, right? That girl, Aping, gave birth to a big fat boy! Be good! You'll look good when you're born, without any wrinkle at all. Let's go, Take you to take a look."
Being held back enthusiastically by Aunt Wang, Minran suddenly felt a little embarrassed, but it was just a little strange.
"Sister Aping is here too? How did I hear that..."
"Hey, do you see that, the one your old man is holding in his arms? Doesn't it look good?"
While talking, Minran was dragged into the door, she said why is there no one outside, it turned out that they all came here. Good guy, a lot of people are crowded together, and you can barely see the old man holding a white lotus root-like arm in his arms.
It seems that Aunt Wang didn't lie to her, this little guy is really fat and white!
This is the room...
Seeing Minran take a few deep breaths, Aunt Wang was a little curious, "What are you doing?"
Minran felt a little embarrassed for a moment, and when she saw the strange eyes of the surrounding villagers, including Sister Ahua and her husband, she couldn't help but retreat.
"It's nothing, it's just that there is a nice smell in this room..."
As soon as the words fell, Aunt Wang couldn't help laughing, "You child, are you hungry? I'm also to blame. I saw that you slept soundly there this afternoon, so I didn't bother you. Everyone has been busy all day today. , and everyone was worried about Aping’s childbirth, so they didn’t go back. No, I boiled a big pot of bone soup tonight, would you like a bowl?”
"No no no!"
Looking at the people in this big room, it was obvious that they had something to do, so they took two steps back, and then looked at A Ping who was sitting next to the old man as if remembering something.
"How is sister Aping? Are you feeling uncomfortable? I still have some pills to strengthen your body..."
"I'm fine, oops, look at my thick arms and thick thighs, how is it the same as those women with thin skin and tender flesh outside? I can go out after a few days. Let's Tonight, I will pray for the child until dawn, and ask the mountain **** to bless him...do you want to stay too?"
This is a private matter in the village, and hearing A Ping's impatient voice, she is an outsider, of course it is impossible to stay, so she said goodbye to everyone with a smile and went back.
Aunt Wang sent her all the way to Ahua's house, and then hurried back with a red lantern.
When Aunt Wang arrived at the old man's room, the old man stared at her and found that she had a relaxed expression. He was also relieved, and revealed the white and tender child in his arms.
"Then let's start. Pray to the mountain god——"
A moment later, a light figure jumped down from the dark roof, jumped a few times ~IndoMTL.com~ and disappeared into the night.
In the morning of the next day, Ahua and his wife returned home quickly. The villagers in Fuxiang Village are indeed very healthy. Even if they haven't slept all night, the Ahua and his wife are still in good spirits, and their faces are full of red.
"Miran! Wake up soon! I brought you broth! Let's drink a little bit first!"
Ahua smiled and handed over a bowl of rich and fragrant broth, which was made from yesterday's hedgehog. In the morning, Minran also had an appetite.
Drank the broth in one gulp, wiped his mouth blankly, his eyes sparkled, "Sister Ahua, what are you going to do today?"
"Huh?"
Ahua thought about it carefully, and found that the collective farm work in the village was almost done yesterday, so he simply dragged Minran to clean the house, and took out the bedding and the like to bask in the sun.
Shuisheng was called out to work just now, and there were only two people left at home, Minran and Ahua, who helped put some winter clothes on the clothesline. Also took out a few pieces to dry. Although time stands still in the storage bag, the clothes that have been exposed to the sun are obviously warmer and more comfortable to wear.
Seeing Minran busy, A Hua also came over to help, but when he saw a small dress with awkward stitches in a pile of clothes, A Hua couldn't help being stunned for a moment.
"Miran, is this your clothes too?"
"Which one?"
Turning around, I saw the little dress with messy stitches in A Hua's hand, and smiled embarrassedly.
"This is the clothes I wore when I was five years old. My mother didn't know how to make clothes, so she wanted to learn how to do needlework. As a result, a sleeve fell off as soon as I put it on..."
