1986: Old Stories in Northeast China

The sow was lying on the straw, and the two piglets were suckling milk seriously.

"Dad, whose are they? Why are they here?" Doudou asked curiously.

"Yingzi, Yingzi, come here quickly, our pigs have given birth." Chen Tiezhu shouted with his neck stretched.

Hearing his shout, Han Xiuying also ran all the way.

"Where are they? Where are they? Why are they so small? Only two?" After running over, she pushed Chen Tiezhu aside.

"Yingzi, I just saw them too. But I guess there can't be only two, the belly is still quite big." Chen Tiezhu said with a wry smile.

"Hum... Hum..."

The lying sow hummed a few times at this time.

"Dad, can I hold the piglets and play with them?" Doudou blinked his big eyes and looked at the piglets, which were really rare.

"You have to wait a little longer. Can't you see they are still feeding? When they are full, Dad will steal one for you and let you hold it and play with it." Chen Tiezhu said.

"Yeah." Doudou nodded excitedly.

Han Xiuying rolled her eyes next to him, "Are you two discussing stealing children in front of other mothers?"

"Or..., hold one for you too?" Chen Tiezhu asked with a smile.

"Hehe, that's more like it." Han Xiuying was very satisfied.

It should be said that no matter what animal, it is very rare when it is a baby.

Although the mother pig is very dirty, the two piglets are so cute.

"Can I go in and take a look?" Han Xiuying asked.

"It should be nothing. I'll go in and explore first. After all, we often feed it, it knows us and knows that we are good to it." Chen Tiezhu said, and jumped into the pigpen carefully.

The sow also saw his actions, but ignored him.

Just as Chen Tiezhu said, although this was a later family, they had already become familiar with each other. Who cares for the meal, they can still tell.

"Hey, it's nothing. Doudou, Daddy will hold you first, and then hold sister Yingzi." Chen Tiezhu said happily.

"Yes, Daddy, hold Doudou quickly." The little guy urged impatiently, and his little body jumped up.

Just after carrying the little guy to the pigpen, before he could stand firmly, the little guy couldn't wait to run to the side of the sow, squatted down, and looked carefully.

"Come on."

Chen Tiezhu waved to Han Xiuying happily.

Han Xiuying looked at him disdainfully, how could she not know what this guy was thinking about?

He supported the low wall of the pigpen with one hand, exerted a little force, and one leg flew into the air.

However, the smile on Han Xiuying's face had not yet bloomed, and Chen Tiezhu's smile bloomed first.

With a small step, he took Han Xiuying into his arms steadily.

"Let go." Han Xiuying said with gritted teeth.

"No, why should I?" Chen Tiezhu looked proud.

"Are you crazy? Grandpa and Second Master will be here soon." Han Xiuying said with a bitter face.

I also know that this guy is a rolling meat, and he may go crazy at any time. And now this guy is a little crazy.

"Hehe, I was kind enough to pick you up. Otherwise, when can I hug you? It's so unfair that I can't even hug my own partner."

Chen Tiezhu muttered to himself, but he still put Han Xiuying down obediently.

Playing is playing, even if it's your partner, you can't go too far, right?

Han Xiuying hit him angrily, pushed him aside, and moved to Doudou's side to watch the piglets together.

"Tiezhu, don't you remember the date?"

At this time, Second Master's voice came over.

"Well, I was so busy during this period that I forgot to ask Liu Dayou. He was also a little busy and forgot to tell me." Chen Tiezhu said awkwardly.

The second master looked at him helplessly, "You, you have to ask even if you don't have this experience. Seeing that it has made a nest, it means that the day is coming soon."

"Well, this is the nest? I thought it was a little cold recently and it wanted to sleep warmer." Chen Tiezhu grinned.

"Dad, dad, the big sow is amazing. After a while, the piglet came out."

At this time, Doudou shouted excitedly.

Chen Tiezhu turned his head and gave birth to another piglet.

"Not bad, even if it's the first time to give birth to a lamb, you can raise this sow. It's kind and righteous." The second master smiled after watching for a while.

"Second master, is there any particularity?" Chen Tiezhu asked in confusion.

"You don't even know this, and you want to learn to raise pigs from others?"

It was Mr. Han who spoke.

"Grandpa, everything is a first time." Han Xiuying added.

"You guys..." HanThe old man shook his head.

"Some sows don't care about their lambs after giving birth, and many of them will suffocate to death in the placenta. Some will not feed the lambs properly even if they lick the placenta open."

"Some others are very heavy. They crush the lambs when feeding, and they are too lazy to move even if they hear noises. Your sow is more concerned about the lambs, so you can worry less about raising the lambs in the future."

"Hehe, this is also my blessing. Do you want to prepare something else? Bring the whole brazier over to save the whole family from being cold?" Chen Tiezhu said with a smile.

"That's right, but you have to stay away from it. Otherwise, if it's too hot, the piglets will swell and they will be prone to illness in the future." Second Master said.

"Okay, I'll make a fire first, and then get it some food and drink."

After Chen Tiezhu finished speaking, he jumped out of the pigpen.

"This kid, it turns out there are things he can't figure out." Second Master said with a smile.

"Second Grandpa, it's bulging again, it's amazing."

Seeing another piglet born, Doudou shouted happily.

"Hahahaha..., there are still many to come. Look at this big belly. I estimate there will be seven or eight." Second Grandpa said with a smile.

At this time, Chen Tiezhu ran back in a hurry, holding a basin and carrying a medicine box.

The basin was filled with raw eggs and space water, which were for the sow to replenish its body.

For people, giving birth is very dangerous, and the same is true for animals.

Chen Tiezhu held the basin close to his head, but the sow smelled the fragrance, poked its head slightly, put its mouth into the basin, and drank it while lying down.

"Why are you carrying a medicine box?" Han Xiuying asked in confusion.

"I'm afraid it's too tired. I'll help it deal with it later." Chen Tiezhu said.

"Dad, when are you going to give birth?" Doudou raised his head and asked curiously.

"Hey, you have to ask Sister Yingzi about this." Chen Tiezhu said with a smile.

Doudou's little head turned around quickly, making Han Xiuying blush.

How do you explain this to the child?

The instigator is Chen Tiezhu.

He was so angry that he didn't care that the second master and his grandfather were present, and he beat Chen Tiezhu.

Instead, the second master and Mr. Han were amused. Are young people nowadays used to playing like this?

After a lot of nonsense, they still have to watch the sow give birth.

This process is really hard. More than two hours have passed, and ten piglets have been born, but the placenta has not been delivered yet.

After waiting for more than 40 minutes, Chen Tiezhu frowned.

The ten piglets were born smoothly before, so why is it stuck now?

He stretched out his hand and placed it on the sow's belly, feeling it attentively.

Trouble, difficult labor...
