Rebirt Into A Single Mother
Chapter 50's

Xin Qian packed her dirty clothes in the basin, and was about to go to the river to wash clothes. In the afternoon, there were many people by the river. There is only one river in Shuilan Village, and all the streams and water in the village are used in this river.

When Xin Qian passed by, many women were washing vegetables by the river, ready to make dinner. There were also those who washed clothes by the river like Xin Qian. River water in ancient times is very clear and clean, in contrast to river water in the 21st century. Obviously, that's because there's no pollution from chemicals.

The river is covered with large black stones, where villagers usually wash vegetables or wash clothes. But the boulders were only eight, so while there were some people washing, others had to wait by the river. However, the women who had come were not too rushed, and waited leisurely by the river bank, chatting a few words from time to time, with a casual appearance with the other women. This was also a rare relaxing time for these women to be together.

As Xin Qian passed by, the women by the river looked at Xin Qian, when they saw Xin Qian, they started to whisper and did not like to see Xin Qian. In recent years, due to Xin Qian's pregnancy before marriage, Xin Qian would definitely be ostracized in the village. The other women felt that if they approached Xin Qian, they would also attract some gossip. These people ignored Xin Qian, and Xin Qian also did not want to say anything, after all, she was also unable to ask others to pay attention to her, right?

"Qiani!" Suddenly someone called out Xin Qian's name.

Xin Qian heard the call and looked towards the voice, it was Mu Lan. Mu Lan waved at Xin Qian, with a smile on her face. Xin Qian also smiled at Mu Lan and walked towards Mu Lan. Mu Lan was older than Xin Qian but only 3 years apart.

An old woman who was next to Mu Lan reminded Mu Lan in a low voice, "Girl Mu Lan, why are you talking to her? You better not talk to people like that."

Mu Lan of course knew what this woman meant, but she still smiled and said, "It's okay, auntie, I feel Xin Qian is a good girl. After all, everyone has mistakes."

The old woman sighed, as if she felt that Mu Lan was too innocent, and said to Mu Lan, "Then, just do as you please, don't blame auntie for not reminding you! "

Mu Lan simply smiled and did not reply. No matter what others say, he only believes in his own feelings. At least she felt that Xin Qian was kind when she tried to get along with Xin Qian before.

Xin Qian arrived at where Mu Lan was and smiled at Mu Lan, "Sister Mu Lan, are you also washing clothes?"

Mu Lan smiled and nodded, "Yes, come on, Qian, I'll shift a little, and you can also wash it beside me, so you won't have to wait, it will take time!"

Xin Qian nodded, "Thank you, big brother Mu Lan."

Mu Lan also slightly smiled, "Together, just a small matter."

Xin Qian caught a glimpse of Mu Lan's basin with only a few cloths, so she asked Mulan, "Sister Mu Lan, what are you washing?" Seeing that it was not the clothes that were in Mu Lan's hands.

Mu Lan said, "It's a baby diaper!"

"diaper? Isn't my sister's son grown?” ask Xin Qian. Mu Lan had not yet had another baby.

"Yes, my sister-in-law's wife gave birth to a baby boy two months ago, babies use more diapers every day! So, I helped my sister-in-law wash her because she couldn't move freely after giving birth." Mu Lan explained.

This ancient era is not like modern times that disposable diapers are available. In ancient times, you could only use a diaper from a piece of this cloth, and it was harder to wash it every day.

A bitter smile appeared at the corner of Mu Lan's mouth, "Yes, my sister-in-law's wife is resting, and she can't wash it."

"Isn't this two months? If your sister-in-law said before she couldn't wash it, but is she still unable to wash it now? What about her husband? Can't she help him wash? How could he make it that big brother Mu Lan washes his child's diapers every day?" Xin Qian said somewhat annoyedly.

"Qian, how could a man wash clothes? It's the women who have to do all this!" Said Mu Lan innocently.

"·······" Xin Qian felt speechless for a while. He knew that in ancient times a man was most valued here. But, aren't the thoughts of these people too stale? Why should only women wash dirty things because of their own children? Is it not possible for a man to help his wife do so?

“Lali, how about Mother-in-law's sister? My sister also has a lot to take care of. So, washing diapers is not the duty of big brother Mu Lan.” Xin Qian said.

Mu Lan smiled bitterly, "My mother-in-law can't do this job when she's too old, her back will hurt if she's bent too long, so I'll do it."

Xin Qian knew that Mu Lan was actually very unwilling to do this job. But in the Zhu family, Mu Lan was the least favored among the daughter-in-law, so the work that everyone did not do was given to her.

"Hah .. You're too good big brother Mu Lan." Xin Qian sighed, not knowing what else to say. For some things, we have to be able to fend for ourselves, and others cannot help. Mu Lan's situation was also related to her own temperament, if her temperament was a little more resolute, she wouldn't be the most petty and bullied in her husband's family.

Xin Qian started rinsing the clothes in the basin with the cold river water. When Mu Lan saw Xin Qian just washing clothes with clean water, she hurriedly asked, "Xin Qian, why don't you wash your clothes with a saponin? How can you wash your clothes like this?"

"Saponins?" Ask Xin Qian

"Yes, when you mix saponins and gelatin, you can wash clothes clean.” Answer Mu Lan.

Xin Qian seemed to recall that this ancient man washes clothes with saponins. In ancient times, unlike the 21st century, no detergent can make washing clothes easier and cleaner.

In ancient times we could only wash them with water and sometimes clothes were not clean from stains. So they put on saponins and wash clothes with saponins. In addition, with the saponins of the clothes we still have a little fresh aroma.

After Xin Qian came to the ancient times in this life, she did not know where to go to buy saponins, so this time she washed the clothes not carrying saponins.
