Although the birth took a while, the doctor said that both the adult and the child were fine. However, Qin Lie was still worried and said that he would stay in the hospital for a few days for observation before going home.

When Yang Liu saw that both adults and children were safe, she also went home.

The next day, which happened to be the weekend, the whole family heard that Yang Nan had given birth and wanted to go to the hospital to check it out.

Yao Caiying stewed a pot of old hen soup to nourish the adults, as childbirth is the most depleting time for qi and blood.

Li Qiuhuo stewed a pot of crucian carp soup, saying that this is the best way to increase milk production. Adults can drink it and children can also benefit from it.

The two families carried their bags full of things and went to the hospital together. Since there were too many people to take the bus, they stopped a car.

Yang Liu suddenly thought to herself that she was now half a boss after all, and it was really embarrassing to walk or ride a broken bicycle every time she went out. The matter of buying a car must be put on the agenda as soon as possible.

Qin's father and mother stayed up all night and were just persuaded by Qin Lie to go back and rest.

Seeing that he was holding the child very skillfully, Yang Nan was quite surprised and said, "I see that this is your first time being a father, how come you are so skilled in holding a child?"

Qin Lie had just fed the child malted milk and patted her back to smooth it out. He smiled and said, "Of course. I don't know how many times I've practiced this privately."

His wife endured the hardships of ten months of pregnancy to give birth to his child, and he could not replace her, but he could help share some of the burden of raising the child.

Not only did he practice how to hold a baby privately, he also read many books on maternal and child care, which finally came in handy.

The young couple was talking when Yang Shu ran in from outside, grinning and shouting, "Sister, brother-in-law, I'm here to see my little niece."

Yang Nan was very happy to see his brother coming and asked, "Are you here alone?"

"No, my parents and my uncle's family are all here, but I ran fast and got there first." The young man was still breathing heavily as he spoke.

Qin Lie placed the child in a cradle beside him, poured him a glass of water, and said to his wife, "Look after the child while I go out to greet them."

As soon as the others left, Yang Shu put down his cup and ran over. He looked at the doll in the cradle and frowned and said, "Sister, she's so small!"

"You were this small when you were born. Now you know how hard it is for your parents to raise you to this age."

Yang Liu found that her mentality had become completely different since she had a child, and she could easily educate people when she opened her mouth.

Especially when facing younger brothers and sisters.

Yang Shu is now in the sixth grade and will soon go to junior high school. He is at the age of rebellion and playfulness and does not like being controlled. Seeing his sister's tone that is exactly the same as that of the school teacher, he immediately became a little impatient and muttered, "Sis, when did you become so nagging? Be careful that your little niece is annoying you."

After saying that, he stretched out a finger and carefully poked the child's face, then exclaimed in amazement: "Sister, her face is so soft and tender, like tofu."

"There are other foods in this cabinet. Go get them out. Remember to give them to Mu Tou and the others when they come later."

After all, he is a boy, and he will have his own worries when he grows up. It is not appropriate for her to ask him questions now.

Before she left the village, she thought that as long as people were diligent and hardworking, they would live a good life and would not go hungry.

But after coming to Shanghai and seeing the world, she realized that people could live like this.

For people like them who come from ordinary backgrounds, if they want to live a better life in the future, the most stable way is to study hard, get into college, and then find a good job.

It would be a bit too much to ask a ten-year-old child to understand these principles now.

Never mind. We see it all the time anyway. She can just give more advice later.

As soon as Qin Lie got down to the first floor, he saw their huge group and hurried over to greet them: "Mom, Dad, Uncle, and Aunt, you're all here."

Yao Caiying said to him, "Your aunt has made fish soup for Nannan. Please help her and take us upstairs to see the child."

The joy in his tone could not be hidden.

"Brother-in-law, please lead the way quickly. My second aunt was probably so excited that she couldn't sleep all night last night."

The others burst into laughter when they heard it.

This was her first granddaughter, so Yao Caiying was naturally happy.

In the village, people of her age already have grandchildren.

Shitou was originally being led by Yangliu. When he heard that they were going up to see the children, he let go of her hand and ran up the stairs after them.

Yang Nan lived in a single room, so even if they all came up, there would still be enough room for them to stand.

"Nannan, your aunt and I are here to see you."

As soon as Yao Caiying entered, she put the cooked chicken soup on the bedside table, and then she saw the red package on the other side of the bed, which she had made.

"Is the child asleep?"

Yang Nan nodded and said, "I just went to bed, Mom, you guys sit for a while."

After everyone came in, Qin Lie took another bag of fruit out to wash, and the adults sat aside and talked.

Yao Caiying and Li Qiuhe had both given birth to children and were the most experienced in this regard. They first asked about Yang Nan's physical condition, and then told her what she needed to pay attention to during the confinement period.

She didn't really listen, but Qin Lie stood by and listened attentively, almost taking notes in his notebook.

Mu Tou and Shi Tou stood obediently beside Yang Liu. Yang Liu saw that they were both staring at the rocking bed, so she smiled and said, "Weren't you just clamoring to see your sister at home? Why don't you come over now that you're here?"

Yao Caiying was sitting over there. After hearing this, she immediately waved to the two brothers, "Mu Tou, Shi Tou, come and look, this is my sister."

The two brothers then slowly moved over and looked at the tiny ball in the red swaddling clothes. Their eyes widened and they cheered, "Mom, my sister is so cute."

Shitou even stretched out his chubby little hand to touch it, and his heart became happier. He bared his little mouth with one tooth missing and rushed into Yangliu's arms like a gust of wind, tilting his head and begging, "Mom, my sister is so cute, why don't you and Dad give me another sister?"

He was actually not happy about being the youngest in the family.

He wants a younger brother or sister so that he will have someone to take care of him in the future.

But now I realize that my sister is still better.

Everyone else in the room covered their mouths and laughed when they heard this. Yang Liu blushed and pointed at her son's forehead and said, "When I was pregnant with you two, I thought you were a girl. Who knew you would turn out to be a son?"

When she was pregnant with the two brothers, she liked to eat sour and spicy food, and she once thought she would give birth to twins, a boy and a girl.
