six days of punishment On the haystack behind the house, warmth was steaming there.The entire countryside is flooded with sunshine.The small wind began to rippling the fields, summer came to the world again, and the leaves grew on the trees!If the tree blossoms, then the flowers also grow on the tree! On the haystack behind the house, the dog gave birth there.The big dog's limbs were trembling, and his whole body was shaking.After a long time, the puppies were born. In the warm season, the whole village is busy with production.The big pigs ran past with a group of piglets chattering, and some sows had such big bellies that they nearly touched the ground when they walked, and most of their udders seemed to be filling up.

It was dusk, and the fifth aunt's sister couldn't delay any longer. She went to the mother-in-law's house and said, "Find an old lady! It doesn't feel good." Go back to the room and put down the curtains and curtains.She couldn't sit still at first, so she rolled up the mat and crawled on the grass.When the midwife came, she turned her head away when she first saw this room. She said: "I have never seen a big family like yours raise their children on the grass. 'You can't make a fortune by pressing firewood, pressing firewood.'" The mother-in-law at home rolled up all the firewood under the mat, and dust rose from the kang.

Naked woman, like a fish, she crawls there. After dusk, the house was lit by candlelight.The woman was about to give birth, she yelled softly for a while, the midwife and a neighbor's old woman supported her, made her sit up, and moved slightly on the kang.But sinful children can't give birth, and after midnight, when the rooster crows outside, the woman suddenly turns pale and yellow in pain, and the whole family can't settle down.Beginning to prepare her funeral gown, rummaging for clothes in the horrible candlelight, the whole family is agitated by the shadow of death. A naked woman, she can't crawl at all, she can't struggle for the last moment for life and death.It was getting light.Horror seems to be a zombie, stretching straight into the house.

Fifth Aunt knew about my sister, came here, and was inquiring: "Don't you want to drink a sip of water? Since when did she start?" A man crashed in, looking like a drunk lunatic.Half of his face, red and swollen, walked to the place where the curtain was drawn, and he shouted, "Give me my boots!" The woman didn't respond. He tore the curtain with his hands and moved his thick and swollen lips: "Are you pretending to be dead? Let me see if you still pretend to be dead!" As he spoke, he picked up the long cigarette pouch beside him and threw it at the dead body.Mother came and dragged him out.Every year, he objected when he saw his wife giving birth.

The daytime pain eased a little and made her sober!She was sitting under the curtain, sweating profusely, when suddenly the red-faced ghost came in again, without saying anything, only to see him throwing a large basin of water towards the curtain in his frightening hands. Finally people dragged him out. The woman with a big belly was still swollen, sitting there speechless with cold water all over her body.She hardly dared to move, she was as afraid of her man as a child under the authority of her father. She could no longer sit still, she was tortured, and the midwife changed her wet blouse.When the door rang, she panicked again, as if she was going crazy.Don't let her grunt at all, the suffering woman, if there is a hole around her, she will jump into it!If there is poison around her, she will swallow it, she hates everything, and the window sill will be kicked over by her.

She is willing to break her legs, just like entering a steamer, her whole body will be torn apart by the heat! The midwife pushed her stomach with her hands: "Be stronger, stand up and walk, the baby will come down immediately, it's time!" After a while, her legs trembled pitifully.Like a sick horse, it fell down.The midwife lost her expression, and she said: "The daughter-in-law is afraid of causing trouble, so let's find another old lady!" The fifth aunt went home to find her mother. Here the child was born, and the child died immediately!The servant dragged the mother to stand up, and immediately the child fell on the kang, as if something was thrown on the kang, making a sound.The woman lies in the blood, soaking the blood with her flesh.

Outside the window, the sun is shining on the window, and the woman in the house is tired from giving birth. In the green world on the farm, people are dripping with sweat. In April, the birds hatched too!I often see yellow-billed sparrows flying down, jumping and pecking under the eaves.The team of piglets gradually fattened up, only the women were leaner in the country in summer, like plowing horses. The punishment, seeing Jin Zhi fall upon her body, made her short figure very disproportionate to such a big belly.Jin Zhi didn't look like a woman, she was still like a little girl, but her belly was swollen!

Soon to be a mother!The wives' punishment is fast for her. And less than four months after she got married, she gradually began to curse her husband, gradually feeling that men are cold human beings!That's just like other village women. Sitting on the beach by the river, Jin Zhi was washing clothes.The red sun slanted on the river, and the reflection of the forest on the other bank blurred with the red waves! Cheng Ye was behind, standing far away: "It's getting dark! You wash clothes, lazy wife, what are you doing during the day?" Before dawn, Jin Zhi fumbled to put on his clothes.In the kitchen, the little pot-bellied woman began to steam the kitchen.When the sun came out, the workers who shoveled the ground came back with their hoes on their shoulders.The main room was crowded with black heads, and the sound of swallowing rice and soup rang out without discipline.

Cooking again at noon; cooking at night, Jin Zhi is too tired!The pain was like breaking a leg.When it gets dark, lie down and rest for a moment.In the confusion, she sat up and knew that Cheng Ye was back!Trying to raise her sleeping eyes, she asked, "You just came back?" After several minutes, she received no answer.Seeing the man take off his clothes, she knew she was going to be scolded again! On the contrary, without scolding, Jin Zhi felt a little warmth from behind, and the man tried his best to speak to her in a low voice: "..." Jin Zhi was obsessed with the man!

Immediately, it was like disaster, followed by pleasure and pain.Jinzhi can't cook.The village midwife is here!She was in pain in the corner of the kang, where she was being punished, and Wang Po came to help her give birth to the child.Wang Po shook her experienced head: "Dangerous, you must have been restless last night. You don't know anything when you are young, and you have a big belly. You can't do that. It's easy to lose your life!" More than ten days later, Jinzhi moved in the courtyard again!Xiao Jinzhi cried for her in the house. The cow or horse is unconsciously busy cultivating its own pain.When enjoying the shade at night, you can hear strange noises made by horses or cowsheds.The cow may have been wrestling for his wife and was knocked out of the cowshed.The wooden pole was knocked off and flaring wildly, Chengye went to pick up a rake and beat the mad cow violently, and then was driven back to the shed safely.

In the countryside, people and animals are busy living and dying together... The mother-in-law and Aunt Li met at the end of the ground: "Ah! Can you still bend down?" "How are you?" "I can't do it!" "When is your day?" "Just these few days." It was drizzling outside.Suddenly, the houses in the two and a half miles were noisy!The silly woman is used to making troubles when giving birth. She cried loudly, and she resented the man: "I said I don't want any more children! Those who have no heart, aren't you the one? I will die on you!" It made the old lady twist her body and shut her mouth and laugh.After a while, the silly woman rolled around and yelled loudly: "My stomach hurts like hell, take a knife and cut my stomach open!" The top of the child's round head can be seen amid the noise. At this moment, Fifth Aunt's face turned blue, and when she walked in, she didn't seem to be able to speak, and wrung her hands unceasingly: "I'm out of breath! Miscarriage, Second Aunt Li is dying!" In this way, Wang Po left Ma Mian Po and rushed to the fishing village.When another midwife came, Mamianpo's child was already crying on the kang.The midwife was washing the baby who was just about to cry. When Wang Po came back, under the wall outside the window, someone's pig was also giving birth to piglets.
