Chapter 317 Two Dead Bodies

"It's alright, I'm much better now," the woman said, seeing the person enter before she even got out of bed.

When Li Guizhi came in, she saw the two brats with their hands tied together. Seeing the children crying with their bare bottoms exposed, she was almost furious. What kind of weather is this, leaving the children like this? They'll get sick!

"What are you two doing? You're letting the child get cold like this, you'll make him sick. Don't you know you should cover him with a blanket?"

Qian Xiao's eyes lit up when she saw her mother: "Mom, you're finally back! We wanted to change his diaper since he peed, but we were too afraid to touch him."

Li Guizhi took the diaper and said, "You two good-for-nothings, what's so difficult about this? Those babies aren't made of glass, they won't break if you just touch them. Watch closely, I'll teach you."

Qian Xiao smiled gratefully at Lin Chuang and quickly focused all her attention on learning from her mother. Now that she was a mother herself, she had to learn these things.

Sun Kaicheng kept his eyes on his mother-in-law's movements. One of them had to know how to take care of the baby. His wife had gone through a lot of hardship during childbirth, so it would be better if he learned how to take care of the baby so that his wife could get more rest.

The task that had been so difficult for the two of them was quickly finished by Li Guizhi: "Look, what's so hard about this? Have you two learned it yet?"

Qian Xiao, Sun Kaicheng... their eyes said they had learned it, but their hands said, "No, you can't."

Judging from the expressions on their faces, the couple hadn't learned how to use it. You know, these two can figure out such a powerful machine, so why can't they change a diaper? If the grandparents weren't there with him, how much suffering would their grandson have to endure!

Why don't you talk to the child's father and decide not to go back for now, and wait until your daughter is a little older before making a decision?

Sun Kaicheng felt quite embarrassed and quickly took the wet diaper: "I'll go out and wash it off."

"No need, I need to scald this with boiling water when I get home before using it on the child. I don't know if Erdan can be discharged today? If he can't be discharged, I'll take it home and scald it later."

"Just put it in the basin. There's nowhere to dry it now. You two should learn how to hold the baby. What will you do when Erdan is out of confinement and we all go back home, and you don't even know how to hold the baby?"

When the soft little baby was placed in her arms, Qian Xiao was extremely nervous. My goodness! It was so soft and could even move! But after adjusting her position, Qian Xiao realized that holding the baby wasn't so difficult after all.

Looking down at her child's face, she said, "Mom, I feel like you look a little bit better today than yesterday."

"Don't worry, he'll develop jaundice in the next few days, and his body will become even more bloated and look worse. But after three days, he'll look better every day. Don't worry, this child definitely won't be ugly. And judging from the two of you, this child won't be ugly either."

The woman in the next bed got out of bed and strolled over to see the baby. She had slept soundly last night, but when she opened her eyes this morning, she found out that Qian Gong had given birth to a son. Qian Gong is a great worker and a great mother; his first child was a boy.

Qian Xiao smiled at the woman and generously let her see him.

The woman clicked her tongue twice: "What's ugly about this child? He's such a handsome young man. He'll definitely be good-looking when he grows up."

Qian Xiao, the only thing she lacks is the ability to lie through her teeth. She doesn't even know what expression to make. This is just too fake.

The woman probably sensed Qian Xiao's thoughts, so she took a few steps over, picked up her son, and showed him to Qian Xiao: "Look, all newborn babies are about the same size, they'll grow out of it."

"I had a daughter before me. She was ugly when she was born, but she's very beautiful now."

Qian Xiao glanced at the child in the other person's arms. He really wasn't much better looking than her own son, except that he had fewer wrinkles on his face: "Really, he really can grow up to be good-looking?"

Li Guizhi really wanted to give her daughter a good scolding. Look at what she was saying! Couldn't she at least say a few words of praise for someone else's child?

The woman was good-natured and didn't get angry. She said, "It's true, children are born ugly, so why deny it? I'll show you my daughter when I have the chance. She was even uglier than my son when she was born, but she's beautiful now."

Now that the baby has been born, Qian Xiao is more energetic and chats with people: "Which warehouse are you from?"

This woman has a really nice personality, which suits her taste perfectly. It would be good to meet more people and chat with them.

“I’m from Warehouse Number Three. My name is Zhong Ying. You can just call me Yingzi. That’s what everyone calls me.”

Yingzi pointed to the man looking at her: "This is my husband. He works at the grain station. If you need to buy grain or anything, just look for him. His surname is Ma."

“Okay, Yingzi, just call me Xiaoxiao. You know my husband too.” Yingzi’s husband is probably a minor leader or something, otherwise they really wouldn’t be able to get a double room.

"Oh, I'll still call you Engineer Qian. I'm used to it and I can't change it." Yingzi was a little flattered. Engineer Qian and his wife were considered high-class and unattainable in the factory, but she didn't expect them to be so approachable.

"Okay, call me whatever you want," she said, adding that even Guan Yu and the others now called her Engineer Qian, and she was used to it.

The two women were quite talkative when they got together, chattering away. The two men exchanged a glance and gave each other sympathetic looks. It seemed that their wives had found new companions and had abandoned their sons and husbands.

Qian Xiao had a natural birth, and the baby wasn't very big. She could be discharged after resting for one night. After breakfast, she started packing. She had only stayed one night and didn't know why she had so much stuff.

Li Guizhi held her eldest grandson, while the four elderly people each carried some items. Sun Kaicheng held Qian Xiao, and Qian Xiao waved to Yingzi, saying, "I'm leaving now. I'll talk to you after I get to work."

Yingzi has even more information than Guan Yu. I only had time to talk to her a little bit today. I'll definitely find a chance to have a good chat with her and hear more gossip about the factory workers.

Qian Xiao was lucky. The weather was still cool when she gave birth, and she was able to endure not being able to take a bath during her postpartum period. During that month, her family taught the two of them how to take care of the baby step by step, and the two of them, who were always clumsy, finally learned how.

I never imagined that taking care of a child would be more difficult than doing crafts. Both of us are very strong, so we have to be extra careful every time, for fear of hurting the child.

"Grandpa, Grandma, why are you in such a hurry to go back? Just stay here. It's not like we can't fit everyone in the house." To put it bluntly, even if we supported these four elderly people and my mother ourselves, we could afford to.

“There’s not much work to do in the fields right now. Why don’t you stay until spring plowing before going back? Do you really trust us to take care of the children?” If it weren’t for the village’s spring plowing that required her to go back, she would have preferred to stay and not go back at all.

After talking for so long, only the last sentence worried the two of them. Although their in-laws and their eldest daughter-in-law were still there, they really couldn't bear to see their great-grandson. The family hadn't had a child for more than ten years, and they couldn't cherish this one more than they could ever want.
