Chapter 23 - The Villagers Visited Ye Lulu And Her Children
"Tsk, they look the same, but this child is so small. He's not even half the size of the child I gave birth to back then."
"I can't differentiate the three of them. How rare!"
Everyone started discussing fervently.
"I didn't think that Lulu would get pregnant with triplets. I don't think the Guan family expected this either." A slightly older woman said to Ye Lulu, "When Ye Lulu got pregnant, she ate and drank normally.. She didn't seem to have any abnormalities as well. Who knew that she would give birth to three children at once? The Guan family must have panicked."
"But Lulu's stomach was indeed very high back then," a woman added. "It's just that everyone thinks that it's because the child was big… Sigh, Lulu's body is so thin and weak, and she was pregnant with three children. How can she provide for them? Her body is still weak, right?"
"How heavy are the children?"
"She experienced a difficult labor, right? Everyone saw it that night. When they moved Lulu to the straw hut, she was already in a very bad state. At that time, we thought…"
"Sigh, giving birth is bad for the body. Lulu has to recuperate well."
"Tsk, Lulu is skinny and shriveled. Her body looks like a bamboo pole. One look and you can tell that it won't be easy for her to give birth. Of course, she experienced a difficult labor. She even had to give birth to three children at once. It's already considered lucky that she didn't lose her life. Those daughters-in-law with big breasts and big buttocks can't even give birth to their first child smoothly. How can Lulu compare to them? She even wanted to show off and give birth to triplets."
"Is it hard to take care of the children? Will all three children cry when one of them cries? I heard that twins are like that. They do everything together."
Among all the voices, there was suddenly a sentence that didn't sound nice.
The women, who had been discussing fervently in the room, finally reacted and fell silent for a moment.
"Hey, I heard that giving birth to twins requires two months of confinement. Since Lulu gave birth to three, will she have three months of confinement?" Someone brought up another topic.
The group of women was about to start chatting again when another sarcastic voice interrupted them.
"Ye Lulu is still young and it was her first time giving birth. But from the looks of her face, she's not doing well. Her body is also damaged, right? She looks like she has aged ten years. I don't know if she can give birth again. This is a disadvantage. Even if she gave birth to three children at once, the children are not even half the size of newborn children in the village."
"This is all because the mother doesn't have a strong body and is too lousy."
The room fell silent again. Everyone looked a little embarrassed. Ah, who was at someone else's house saying such unpleasant words?
Even if it was true, no one would mention it. Furthermore, children with multiple births were usually smaller in size.
This person was obviously up to no good by saying such things in front of them.
Everyone looked over and saw that it was Auntie Tian from the family who lived at the end of the village.
Auntie Tian was about thirty years old and could be considered a middle-aged woman in the village. She had a well-rounded figure, a big and round face, a thick waist, and round buttocks. Indeed, she looked like it would be easy for her to give birth.
Dressed in coarse clothing, the corners of her eyes were slightly upturned. The corners of her mouth were also curled downwards. Because she was standing, her gaze looked more like she was looking down at Ye Lulu. There was an inexplicable contempt and disdain.
She was the one who spoke badly the last two times.
After searching through her memories, Ye Lulu knew that there was no enmity between her and Auntie Tian. The Tian family didn't have much contact with the Guan family either. The two families could be said to have nothing to do with each other.
