Time flew by, and it was time for Shen Fenghua to give birth. The whole family was on high alert. As for Nianping and Nian'an, the two boys had already been coaxed into a daze by Shen Fenghua and went back to Li Yanran's house with her.

If He Jun hadn't been holding her back, given Li Yanran's personality, she would have definitely jumped out of the car.

"Feng Hua, come back safely."

"I'll definitely come back safe and sound!"

Shen Fenghua was actually a little dumbfounded. She was just going to give birth, not that she was seriously ill and on the verge of death.

"I'm just scared."

Since ancient times, childbirth has been a life-or-death ordeal for women. She couldn't imagine what would happen if something went wrong when Shen Fenghua gave birth.

"Alright, alright, don't rush me!"

Shen Fenghua comforted her, "I only had a C-section, not a natural birth. I have two babies in my belly. A natural birth would definitely be dangerous. I'm scared myself, let alone you."

Shen Fenghua racked her brains for words and gently persuaded, "A C-section doesn't hurt. I've heard that it's just anesthesia, and once the baby is taken out, it's all over."

Li Yanran knew this too. Seeing Shen Fenghua comforting her instead, she took a deep breath and said, "Okay, then go ahead. If you give birth, call me immediately."

"OK!"

No problem at all, Shen Fenghua agreed immediately.

As the bus approached, Grandma and Qi Ye escorted Shen Fenghua, carrying large and small bags, and boarded the bus.

Watching them walk away, Li Yanran hurried home. Once home, she couldn't hold back her tears and burst into sobs.

He Jun watched, feeling both sorry for him and amused.

He wiped away his wife's tears, asking, "Why are you crying?"

Back when she gave birth to Dongdong, she was also young, but she wasn't like this now.

She cried her eyes out, and He Jun even felt a little jealous.

Li Yanran's eyes were blurry with tears as she choked out, "You stinking man, what do you know? If you could understand the bond between Feng Hua and me..."

"Okay, okay, I don't understand. Don't cry. The children will be back soon. Don't forget, Fenghua's two sons are still living with us."

Li Yanran wiped away her tears. "I haven't forgotten. It's just that seeing you by my side made me feel at ease, that's why I couldn't hold back."

She explained in a low voice, and was about to take a deep breath to calm herself down.

But the next second, He Jun captured her lips, saying, "So cute."

Although they were an old married couple, Li Yanran still blushed. "Get out of here, you shameless bastard! Didn't you say the child was back? Aren't you afraid the child will see this and laugh at you?"

"What's so funny?" He Jun raised an eyebrow, his face not flushed and his breath not out. "This is my own wife. It's perfectly reasonable for me to be affectionate with her."

"Get out of here, stop spouting nonsense to the kids, I'll tear your mouth apart."

"Before you tear it apart, let me kiss you to my heart's content."

"You're shameless."

"It's been going on for more than just a day or two."

...

Meanwhile, the family of three arrived at the hospital with bags and bundles. During her hospitalization, they treated Shen Fenghua with normalcy. At most, she attracted a lot of attention because of her good looks and because she was a twin.

There was another patient in the same ward who had a cesarean section; her name was Sun Shunhua.

Her belly was also big, but unlike Shen Fenghua, whose limbs were slender, her whole body was swollen. Looking at Shen Fenghua's appearance, she was a little envious.

"What are you looking at?"

Her mother-in-law came over with a thermos, glanced at Sun Shunhua with a hint of disgust in her eyes, but hid it well.

Sun Shunhua looked away, shrank her neck like a quail, and whispered, "It's nothing, I was just envious of her belly."

“There’s no use in being envious,” Sun Shunhua’s mother-in-law also felt envious, but she knew very well that her daughter-in-law was just unlucky. Even if she was envious of the twins and her eyes were red with envy, she would never do something like trying to curry favor with them.

Thinking of this, in order to show her aloofness and disdain, Sun Shunhua's mother-in-law even glared at Shen Fenghua when she turned her head to greet her.

Shen Fenghua: "???"

The smile on her face vanished instantly.

Is this person crazy? I didn't offend her at all.

She wasn't one to take things lying down, so she immediately retaliated, rolling her eyes at Sun Shunhua's mother-in-law.

We're both experiencing life for the first time, so who's going to put up with whom?

Stop joking.

Sun Shunhua's mother-in-law was furious. She never expected that a mere hussy would dare to glare at her like that. After delivering the meal to her daughter-in-law, she rolled her eyes, got up, and left.

After she left.

The ward returned to silence.

Sun Shunhua stammered, "I'm sorry, my mother-in-law isn't a bad person, she just has a sharp tongue but a soft heart."

Shen Fenghua: "?"

She turned her head and looked at Sun Shunhua's eyes, which were almost squeezed out by fat. She scrutinized them for a moment and saw a clear naivety and stupidity in them.

Shen Fenghua fell silent.

She didn't know how to tell the older woman in front of her, "Your mother-in-law isn't all bark and no bite; she's got a sharp tongue and a venomous heart."

Just from that inexplicable glance, Shen Fenghua could tell that she was no pushover.

However, there is something more important to do right now.

"Aren't you feeling unwell after eating so much?"

These days, although being overweight is considered beautiful, being as overweight as Sun Shunhua is no longer a question of beauty, but rather a question of health.

She wasn't very tall, only about 1.6 meters, but she looked like she weighed over 160 pounds.

At first, Shen Fenghua thought she was the type of person who gained weight no matter what she ate, but after she saw the food brought by Sun Shunhua's mother-in-law, everything became clear.

It has absolutely nothing to do with physical constitution; it's simply because I eat too much and too well.

Another issue is whether her body can withstand the strain of childbirth while she's pregnant.

"I didn't want to either, but..."

Sun Shunhua was a little embarrassed, but her hand unconsciously went to her stomach. A sweet smile appeared on her chubby face. "It's just that my mother-in-law said it's good for the baby. At first, I wasn't used to it. Later, even if she didn't let me eat this much, I still felt uncomfortable."

My stomach is stretched out, and if I don't eat enough, my stomach feels like it's on fire.

Since things have come to this, there's no point in saying more. Shen Fenghua simply advised, "After you give birth, remember to lose weight. Getting any fatter won't be good for you."

"Yes, I'm sure."

That afternoon, Sun Shunhua went into the delivery room. At that time, Shen Fenghua was chatting with her grandmother, guessing whether the baby would be a boy or a girl. Little did she know that this would be the first and last time Shen Fenghua would see her.

Having a child is never without risks.

To continue their bloodline, women risk their lives.
