During this period, thanks to Yuehui's postpartum confinement, Maodan's meals have been incredibly good. She's not as eager for meat as before, and this time she generously offered others more chicken.

Xie Yan looked at his mature and modest manner and couldn't help but laugh, "Our little Grey has grown up since he had a little sister, and he knows how to be modest now."

Mao Dan straightened his head, raised his little head, put one hand behind his back, and imitated his grandfather's usual posture, pressing down with his other hand. "Uncle, you're making a fuss over nothing. I'm a big brother now, a big kid."

He tilted his head back, imitating Yu Shan's usual manner of holding large meetings, which made everyone else present laugh.

Xie Yan picked up a chicken leg for him, saying, "Since you're all grown up now, here's a chicken leg as a reward."

Mao Dan really wanted to eat it, but when he thought that he was an adult today and not a child, he resolutely refused, saying, "No, no, I won't eat it. Give it to Grandpa. He works hard and should eat more to nourish himself."

Yu Shan looked at Mao Dan with satisfaction. He didn't show it on his face, but he was actually overjoyed inside. Oh, his eldest grandson really knows how to care for him!

He put the chicken leg back, saying, "Grandpa doesn't like chicken legs; he'll eat the balut."

Mao Dan's eyes widened in disbelief. How could someone not like eating chicken legs? "Grandpa, how could you not like eating chicken legs?"

"The chicken drumsticks are delicious, would you like to try some?"

As he spoke, he picked it up and shoved it directly into Yu Shan's mouth.

Yu Shan smiled so much his eyes narrowed into slits, his face full of doting affection, and said, "Really? Then Grandpa has to try a bite." He took a small bite, then feigned surprise and exclaimed, "Hmm~ This chicken leg tastes really good today! Grandpa has already tried it, you can have the rest of the balut."

When Mao Dan heard that his grandfather wasn't going to eat anymore, he immediately brought the chicken leg to his mouth and started taking big bites. While eating, he mumbled, "Grandpa, are you sure you don't want another bite?"

Seeing this, Xie Yan couldn't help but lower his head and chuckle softly.

Mao Dan spoke sweet words, but his hands never stopped moving, and the chicken leg was soon covered in his saliva.

Xie Yan now eats incredibly fast, almost like lightning. He's constantly on edge, afraid that his little darling will wake up before he finishes his meal. If that happens, he won't be able to finish his meal.

Fortunately, Xiao Chaochao's sleep is quite regular, and he usually doesn't wake up during this time unless he needs to pee or poop.

If he peed, that's fine, but if he defecated, Xie Yan won't be able to eat dinner tonight.

For the sake of his stomach, Xie Yan finished eating early.

On the day Yu Yue returned from her postpartum confinement, another heavy snow fell outside.

The original intention of Xie Yan was to sit for sixty days, since that was like giving birth, but Yu Yuehui couldn't stand it and refused to sit for forty days.

After several rounds of debate with her, Xie Yan unfortunately lost in the end.

Yu Yue finally gained her freedom. On the day she finished her postpartum confinement, she boiled a large bucket of water and took a thorough bath.

After coming out, she felt completely relaxed, as comfortable as if she had been reborn, and childishly spread her arms and spun around a few times.

He was just spinning around when Xie Yan suddenly draped a military overcoat over his head.

Yu Yuehui: "......"

Feeling like I'd been caught doing something wrong, I gave a few ingratiating laughs and cautiously said, "I'm not cold!"

Xie Yan didn't say a word and directly pulled the person into the house.

Upon entering the room, before Xie Yan even had a chance to intervene, Qian Hong, who had been holding back for a long time, launched into a tirade against Yu Yuehui, "Showing off your abilities right after giving birth? Your hair's frozen solid! What are you trying to do?"

"On such a cold day, why are you stretching your hand out in the yard after taking a shower instead of going inside?"

"You want to fly to the heavens!"

Yu Yuehui lowered her head and dared not say a word after being scolded by her mother. She really wasn't cold; she now possessed internal strength. But she dared not say this to her mother and could only secretly look at Xie Yan, casting a pleading glance.

Xie Yan stood there like a block of wood, completely ignoring the gaze Yu Yue cast back at him.

He even pretended to pick up a book and read it.

Yu Yue replied: "..."

There's no love left!

Fortunately, Xiao Chaochao still loves her mother very much. She suddenly woke up, looked at her grandmother who was acting strangely, pouted and started to cry.

Yu Yuehui, however, seemed to have been saved and quickly stepped forward, "Mother, Chaochao is probably hungry, let me see."

Qian Hong then let her go.

Once back in her mother's arms, Xiao Chaochao stopped crying and started nuzzling against Yu Yue's chest, looking for food.

Yu Yuehui, having just finished her postpartum confinement, was completely rejuvenated. She took over most of Xiao Chaochao's affairs, except for washing diapers, which Xie Yan still did.

As Xiao Chaochao grows up day by day, her lively and active personality becomes apparent; she's so energetic!

As their sleep time gradually shortened and their waking time lengthened, Yu Yuehui became the busiest person in their family, and the task of taking care of the child fell to Xie Yan.

Xiao Chaochao is still a chatterbox. Even at such a young age, she loves listening to other people's voices. If Xie Yan doesn't speak or answer her for a while, she starts to cry and wail.

Xie Yan was tormented by the headache.

After being tormented for several days, Xie Yan finally came up with a brilliant idea. Since she liked to talk, Xie Yan picked up a medical book and began to read it to Xiao Chaochao.

He wants to be a "tiger parent," believing that children's learning should start from a young age, not that children at this age have a strong ability to learn and imitate.

He's going to make good use of that.

When Gu Bin, who was strolling around Xie Yan's house again, saw this scene, his eyes lit up, and he learned something. He went back and wrote it down in his notebook, intending to teach his daughter the same way after she was born.

Zhang Linghui could tell what Gu Bin was thinking just by looking into his eyes.

It's truly unbelievable. I don't know what's wrong with this person; how did they suddenly become so fond of comparing themselves to others?

If Xie Yan knew Zhang Linghui's true feelings, he would tell her very seriously that it wasn't a sudden liking, but rather that she had always felt this way.

Even among close male friends, comparisons are inevitable.

The reason I hadn't shown it before was because I hadn't had the opportunity. Everyone was doing pretty much the same, so there was nothing to compare.

But things are different now. With children, how can parents suppress their desire to compare themselves to others?

Gu Bin is now hoping that his child will be a girl.

Fortunately, their prayers were answered, and thanks to Gu Bin's sincere prayers, their baby was indeed a girl.

Hospital.

The moment the doctor told Gu Bin that the mother and daughter were safe, he burst into tears of joy.

He held the doctor's hand and, after confirming several times that it was indeed a girl, he was so happy he almost jumped for joy.

Hahahaha!

He has a daughter now, let's see how Xie Yan will show off in front of him in the future!
