Legend Forever

Chapter 288: Loneliness and cold

The time required for the birth of the fetus exceeded all expectations.

According to Ilsa's estimation, he will start production before October, just before the advent of severe winter.

However, it is now the end of October, and my belly is much bigger, but there are still no signs.

"It has been more than twelve months, why hasn't it come out yet?" Ilsa whispered strangely.

Elena on the side didn't know what to say.

The cost of living has bottomed out. The money originally reserved for doctors and midwives had to be misappropriated, because otherwise, they would have no money to eat.

This is the last thing Irina had regretted.

On November 1st, it was gloomy and there was a bitter wind outside. Although it did not reach the freezing temperature, the cold air was enough to make people subconsciously wrap the quilt on their bodies.

Ilsa gave birth at this time.

Elena was on the side, staring helplessly at the edge of the bed. Her face was pale, and her sour mother didn't know what to do.

She has absolutely no experience in this area.

"I'll go to the doctor!" Elena ran out, as for the money problem, maybe you can ask for repayment afterwards, even if there is more interest ...

"Wait!" Ilsa called out to Elena, a pale smile on her pale face: "I know what you are thinking, impossible."

In the slums, there are no human relations, promises, and only money can speak.

"But ..." Elena said anxiously.

"It's nothing, come and accompany me." Ilsa patted the position next to her, and then raised her hair again in a depressive cry.

Elena finally sat next to her mother.

Ilsa's hand held Jelena's hand tightly, very hard and very painful.

But Elena didn't say anything, she was silent, not sure what to say.

Ilsa whispered something, interrupted by pain from time to time, then continued to whisper after slowing down.

It's a pity ... Elena's mind was blank. She didn't remember what Elsa said.

That's it, I don't know how long it has been. Ilsa held Jelena's hand again, and Jelena felt that her bones were clicking.

……

"Lina, I don't regret meeting Bode. The time with him is my happiest day."

……

"Mother is right, extraordinary people are very dangerous, they must avoid it when they encounter it. Linna, you must not follow my footsteps."

……

"Take care of this child, not only for her, but also for yourself, living in this world, people always have to rely on."

……

These are the last three sentences left by Ilsa.

Then a cry of the baby broke the calm that had just arrived, and the room was noisy again after a short calm.

Ilsa's hands are already cold.

Elena didn't move, letting the baby cry, holding her mother's hand tightly and not willing to move.

For a long time, Jelena pulled her hand out, forced the broken bone back into place, and then took a long breath with her head raised and gently spit out.

Stood up and walked to the end of the bed. A dirty baby no longer had the strength to continue crying, sobbing quietly.

"Is this the baby's childhood, really ugly." Jelena looked at the baby's appearance and said with some disgust, "Is it really a girl."

Tipped a relatively clean cloth, cut off the umbilical cord, wiped the blood and sheep ~ water from the baby, and then left and right to wrap the baby.

A very weak life is carried by Jelena in her hands, so fragile, so weak that Jelena can keep her quiet forever as long as her fingers are lightly pressed. This action requires no more effort than cutting potatoes. .

In the end, Elena still didn't start because of her mother's last advice.

Tear a book at random, and Elena places the fragments in front of the baby: "Choose a name for yourself."

The newly born baby had no mobility, and Elena didn't care. She randomly stirred the fragments with the baby's hand. After picking it up, the two pieces stuck to the hand were picked and taken as the baby's choice.

In the end, there were only two pieces of clothes that the baby had glued together. Elena put it together and carefully recognized: "Xun ...... feather?"

"Ixunyu? This is really an unpleasant name, and it really matches your disgusting appearance." Elena threw two pieces on the ground at will: "From today, your name will be called Ixunyu, because You are the last child of your mother, and you should inherit the mother ’s surname according to convention, Lino. So from then on you will be called Ixunyu Lino. "

The baby naturally couldn't understand Jelena's words and didn't even open her eyes.

The baby has no strength to cry.

"I don't have any milk to feed you, there is a little soup left in the pot, you can be hungry if you don't eat it." After I decided the name for Yi Xunyu, Elena remembered something she might have to feed.

Said, Elena walked up to the pot with the baby, made a little soup with a spoon, pried open the baby's mouth and poured in.

"Love to eat or not to eat."

Perhaps it was just the baby Yi Xunyu who understood the meaning of Elena, a spoonful of soup only a little because Elena poured out too fast.

After feeding about half a bowl of soup, Elena stopped, not because the baby was full, but because she felt impatient.

"So complicated."

Some disgusted children threw the baby in bed ~, and Elena looked around and sighed.

Turn over and find a large box, throw all the valuables in the house into it. Elena uses a thick rope to tie the corner of the box, and then drags the box to go out.

Pushed the door open, and the biting wind mixed with large pieces of snowflakes blew in, leaving the absent-minded Elena shuddering, "It's snowing?"

The snow on the ground is over a foot thick. It seems that it has been down for some time. At the time, Jelena was accompanying her mother and did not notice it.

Slammed the door and Jelena dragged the box towards the recovery place.

I do n’t have much money left at home ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ Even if I add them all up, I ca n’t get a cheapest coffin. Irina can only do this.

Some of my own half-worn, unwilling to wear clothes, mother's headdress, although some useless, but important memories for the mother ...

All added up to three silver coins, and Elena took the three silver coins to the coffin shop and handed over the money. Then she found about ten copper plates scattered from her arms: "Please, Is the money enough to buy a coffin? "

The shop owner looked at barefoot Elena and sighed, taking three silver coins from Elena's hand, but didn't touch the few copper plates: "Three silver coins are enough, if you just buy the cheapest."

In Yongye, it is a very important thing to settle down in the earth. The original reason has been forgotten, but the ideas passed down from generation to generation have never changed: born in Yongye, died in Yongye.

Because of this, even poor families will never burn or throw things into the water after the family leaves, but bury them in the ground. Without tools, you can do it by hand.

According to the market price, the price of a coffin is actually about five silver coins, but in the slums, just like some people still release tasks such as beading and cutting boxes, even if there are large-scale production machines, the coffins here also take certain care. Nature-Although thin and crude, it is cheap.

But in terms of coffins ... In fact, people in slums are more likely to use straw mats as a coffin, and then put some branches or something when they are buried.

But Elena wanted to buy a coffin for her mother, so she did the same.
