Chapter 1322: Woman Requests to See You (2)
"Madam, this is my third child. Two of them died in infancy. Each time they were difficult to deliver..."
The women were telling their stories one by one. Some had given birth to more than one child, and each time was extremely thrilling. Some had difficult labor and the children suffocated to death in their stomachs.
Ji Xiaowu listened to their experiences with a gloomy face. All kinds of things had happened to them, but everything sounded like they had low status in their husband's family.
In most cases, before giving birth, they are misunderstood by their families, who think they have too much to do. But once something really happens, they will choose to save the child without hesitation.
"How do you want me to help you?" Ji Xiaomu looked at the women and asked seriously.
The women looked at each other, they didn't know...
“Children are our future and the continuation of our lives, but I hope that you care more about yourselves rather than the children.” Ji Xiaowu saw the pain and resignation in their eyes.
"Madam, we don't understand..." The women didn't understand what Ji Xiaowu meant. Everyone told them that having children is what women should do.
"How about this! I'll give you a solution." Ji Xiaomu looked at them and said seriously. "I will build a confinement center for you. No matter how pregnant you are, you can stay there until you give birth and finish your confinement."
The women's eyes lit up.
"But each person needs to pay two taels of silver." The next second, Ji Xiaou's words made their faces change.
"All your food will be taken care of by a trained midwife each day, and there will even be care for you after you give birth. All these things add up to two taels, which is actually not a lot, right? Because I need a lot of money to build a confinement center for you, and I paid for it for you," Ji Xiaowu explained to the women.
"Then what does Madam need us to do?" the woman asked, somewhat excited.
"You need to muster up your courage and let your husband come to accompany you. Let him take on the responsibilities of a man. Having children is not only your business, but also theirs." Ji Xiaomu said seriously.
"But... they need to work?" The women were stunned and asked puzzled.
"Even if it's farming, it doesn't take a whole day, right? I'll always have time to come and accompany you, right?" Ji Xiaomu said seriously. "How can a man not protect his wife and children? Do you think he has fulfilled his responsibility by leaving you at home?"
"..." As the women listened to what Ji Xiaomu said, a small spark of fire surged in their hearts.
"You should give the midwife at least one tael of silver. Is two taels too much? If your husband is unwilling to give you these two taels of silver, what can you expect from him for the rest of your life?" Aunt Ji said slowly.
The women nodded, understanding what Ji Xiaowu meant.
"You all go back and talk to your families. If you are sure you can come, bring your husbands with you tomorrow." Ji Xiaomu said to the women.
"Yes, ma'am." The women looked at each other and decided to go back and discuss the matter with their in-laws.
They want a child, but she just wants to save her own life, whether it's the adult or the child, they want to save both!
After the women left, Ji Xiaowu sat there in a daze, not even noticing Fang Chen's return. "What are you thinking about? You're so serious that you can't even see me in front of you?"
