Fourth baby, Siwa, quickly ate his fill and stopped crying. Er Niang quickly handed Siwa to Jiang Hu and carried Xiaomi over.
"Sanni, you must be hungry. let me feed you." Seeing Sanni's big eyes looking at her, Er Niang couldn't help but smile. Her worries from before were swept away.
Siwa was really too thin, only half the size of Sanni. She was very anxious just by looking at him. Auntie Liu's words kept replaying in her ears.
Xiaomi cried out a few times in response to her mother. The faint smell of milk made Xiaomi's stomach growl.
There was no time to be shy. She opened her mouth and began to suck. Although the spiritual spring water could temporarily relieve hunger, it could not be eaten. Now she was feeding on the milk.
Unfortunately, after a long period of hunger, Er Niang's breasts were shriveled and the milk was gone after a few bites. Fortunately, she had food in her stomach. Although she was not full yet, she could last for a while.
After Xiaomi finished feeding, Er Niang gathered her clothes, picked up Xiaomi, and kissed her. "Sanni, be good. I just ate something. I can feed you again later."
Siwa was small. A little milk was enough. Sanni probably did not have enough.
Xiaomi narrowed her eyes and comforted her. It was fine, it was fine. She had milk powder and spiritual spring in her space. She would make her own food later.
"Er Niang, look. Sanni is so obedient. She's responding to you." Jiang Hu sat by the bed with Siwa in his arms and looked at Sanni. The more he looked at her, the cuter he found her to be.
"Yes." Er Niang smiled and nodded. "Sanni hasn't cried all this time. How obedient."
Er Niang still looked tired. Jiang Hu quickly placed the child on the bed and helped Er Niang lie down. "Sleep a little longer. I'll make something to eat."
Er Niang nodded. Having two children had indeed hurt her vitality, especially since there was nothing to eat at home. She could only rest more.
She wasn't concerned about herself, but she was worried about her two children. They were newborns and couldn't eat anything but milk. Whether they survived was up to her.
Siwa was too young. Jiang Hu placed him in the middle, and Xiao beside him. He tied a bundle of straw to block Xiaomi as he was afraid that she would roll to the ground. He completely forgot that a newborn child could not roll.
"Erni, look after the younger siblings. Dawa, come with me to cook."
Jiang Hu left with Dawa. Erni lay by the bed and looked at her mother and younger siblings. Xiaomi closed her eyes and entered the space.
"Bowls, bowls. I remember there were bowls in the supplies." Xiaomi went straight to the mountain of supplies and found two large bowls and two spoons at a glance.
In the space, she could control these at will. She quickly brought a small bowl to the spring in the courtyard and filled half a bowl with spiritual spring water. Then she went to find milk powder.
"This is the first stage, Tiny Tot and I will be eating this. This adult milk powder is to nourish Mother's body."
Xiaomi had been an orphan in her previous life. In this life, she had parents, siblings, and seemed to have a good relationship with them. They were loving and respectful. Xiaomi was very satisfied.
Since there was no shortage of food and drink in the space, Xiaomi expressed her responsibility to support her family!
Humming in a brisk tone, she opened the milk powder jar and mixed the milk powder according to the ratio. Then Xiaomi left the space.
"Sanni, you woke up so quickly." Erni was still lying by the bed. When she saw Xiaomi open her eyes, she quickly leaned closer. "Sanni, I'm Second Sister."
Xiaomi cried out "Ahh! Ahh!" I know, I know. When I find an opportunity, I'll give you milk powder too.
"Sanni is so obedient. You know that Second Sister is talking to you." Erni looked at Xiaomi with starry eyes. Sanni was so cute. She had never cried or made a fuss, unlike other family's children who were so noisy.
Xiaomi slowly put her finger in her mouth. Erni was still young and didn't know anything about bad finger biting. She didn't stop her at all.
Xiaomi slowly controlled the milk powder that had been prepared in the space and swallowed it drop by drop. She counted in her heart so that she would not choke Fourth Brother when she fed him later.
When she was full, Xiaomi knew what to do. She had grown up in an orphanage and helped take care of abandoned babies. She probably knew how much babies ate.
However, Siwa was weak and small, and he ate even less. In future, she had to feed him less food each time but increased the number of times.
After all, Sanni was still young. She got distracted after watching for a while. Xiaomi quickly took the opportunity to reach out and feed her fourth brother milk powder.
Fortunately, the siblings were close together, so it was not a problem at all. Xiaomi fed Siwa about 10 millimeters. Coupled with the breast milk he had taken previously, it was almost enough.
Because it was fed drop by drop, he did not have to worry about choking. Besides, Siwa knew how to swallow.
She actually wanted to give it to her mother, but Siwa was between them.
"Second sister, second sister, come and help!" Xiaomi cried out, "Ahh! Ahh!". "Mother has just given birth and needs to eat. Otherwise, she will starve to death!"
"What's wrong with Sanni?" Xiaomi didn't raise her voice, but Erni was attracted and came over.
"In the middle, I want to lie between Fourth Brother and Mother!"
Xiaomi looked at the space between Er Niang and Siwa and kept calling out. It was not loud enough to wake Er Niang and Siwa.
Probably all children could speak baby language. Erni actually understood by listening or probably by seeing.
"Is Sanni going to sleep next to Mother?" Erni asked.
Xiaomi quickly made a cheerful sound, indicating that her answer was correct!
"Wait a minute. Second Sister is going to carry Siwa out first."
Xiaomi quickly shut up.
"Sanni is so smart. You can understand your older sister at such a young age."
Erni kissed Xiaomi gently on the cheek before carrying Siwa out and placing him at the end of the bed. She then placed Xiaomi beside her mother and carried her younger brother over.
Probably because he had eaten his fill, Siwa had been sleeping soundly. Er Niang was so weak that she was almost semi-conscious.
Xiaomi leaned against her mother and could even feel that her mother's body was not very warm.
In order to bore Erni, Xiaomi closed her eyes and pretended to sleep. When Erni stopped paying attention to them, Xiaomi quickly put her finger in her mother's mouth.
The adult milk powder soaked in the spiritual spring water flowed from her fingers into her mother's mouth. It was not drop by drop, but like a small stream of water.
Er Niang subconsciously drank the milk powder. Soon, she finished most of the bowl of milk. Xiaomi was tired. She retracted her hand and closed her eyes to sleep.
No matter what, she could support her younger brother and mother now, right? As long as her mother was fine, she and her younger brother should be able to survive.
As for her eldest brother, second sister, and her father, she could only think of other ways when she woke up.
Next to her, Erni seemed to smell something and sniffed. "That smells good."
It was a smell she had never smelled before, but it was fragrant, making her already hungry stomach even hungrier.
Xiaomi snorted. Of course it smelled good. This was the taste of milk powder!
