Chapter 456: Becoming a Father The joy of being a father finally blossomed completely...

The midwife brought out two babies, and Yao Zhizhi took over a tiny one weighing a little over four pounds.

She didn't bother to check the gender, and looked at the midwife worriedly: "The baby is so small, is there anything wrong?"

The midwife reassured him, "Ms. Yao, a premature baby weighing nearly five pounds is doing well. She can be discharged from the hospital after a few days in the incubator if there are no abnormal reactions. The other baby is doing a little better, weighing just under six pounds. After the examination, if there are no problems, she can be brought to Mrs. Yao for feeding."

Yao Zhizhi breathed a sigh of relief. Indeed, let alone a premature baby, even for full-term twins, it would be considered good if their weight exceeded five kilograms.

Now the two children weigh one five pounds, which is a little over four and a half kilograms, and the other nearly six pounds, which is about five kilograms. This is a relatively good result.

She quickly held the child to show Xingxing and Yueyue. The brother and sister all surrounded the poor little one who needed to live in an incubator, and the other one was handed directly to Yao Weihua.

Yao Weihua didn't bother to look at the swaddling clothes, but instead asked, "How is my wife? How long will it take for her to come out?"

"Mr. Yao, Mrs. Yao's wound is almost treated. If there are no abnormal reactions later, we will call you to take her back to the ward."

Yao Weihua was relieved, the joy of being a father finally fully blossoming. He lifted the swaddling clothes, took a look, and said with a smile, "It's really a fat girl." Then he looked at Yao Zhizhi and said, "Little sister, look, is that a boy in your arms?"

Yao Zhizhi carefully opened the swaddling clothes. "Yes, brother, come here quickly. How come the little one only has one egg? Oh, it's okay. One egg just went up, and now it's down. There are two eggs."

Yao Weihua didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Look carefully before you speak, you scared me."

"It's my fault. I was too nervous." After all, it was a premature baby, and Yao Zhizhi was really worried that there was something wrong with the child's development.

Moreover, Editor-in-Chief Gao's son has left a deep shadow on her. Now, whenever she sees a family giving birth to a son, she will instinctively check whether both eggs are complete. If not, early intervention will be beneficial to the child, the adults, and the entire family.

I don’t know whether the child is living well with his adoptive parents.

No matter, she tried her best.

Yao Zhizhi handed the child to another nurse and went to the nursery. She came back after a long time.

At the door of the operating room, the whole family was still waiting. Yao Zhizhi explained the second child's condition to Yao Weihua: "The nanny fed him milk powder, and the boy is eating very actively. There should be no problem."

Yao Weihua nodded and handed his daughter to Yao Zhizhi: "Little sister, hold her for a while. Why hasn't your sister-in-law come out yet?"

He was a little anxious. Logically, it had been more than an hour and he should have come out.

Yao Zhizhi took the baby and went to the obstetrics ward to wait.

Qi Changxiao didn't follow. He stayed at the door of the operating room, chatting with Yao Weihua to distract himself. He was more concerned about one question: "Will my third sister-in-law miss her family during her confinement?"

Yao Weihua also considered this question: "Probably."

After all, childbirth is the biggest test for a woman. The physical pain, mental fatigue, the tension and anxiety of being a new mother, as well as the worry about the future or the uncertainty about the person next to her, all kinds of things will come to her mind at once.

Especially in a place like Hong Kong, it is common for men to keep concubines. After all, the system of wives and concubines was abolished here not long ago, and the inertia of social atmosphere will continue for a long time.

Xia Jingyi has seen and heard a lot, so she must have some worries in her heart.

Yao Weihua had no way to change this. All he could do was to restrain himself and reassure his woman with practical actions.

Even at this time, Xia Jingyi wanted to contact her family out of anxiety and uneasiness, he was fully prepared.

The worst that can happen is that you have to sacrifice some money. Nothing is more important than the health and safety of your family.

So when Qi Changxiao asked him, he told him the truth: "I have prepared one million, and I hope her family will know how to be content."

Qi Changxiao sighed silently and patted his brother-in-law on the shoulder: "If you have any problems, tell me and Zhizhi, and we will find a solution together."

"Don't worry, I won't be polite with you." Yao Weihua smiled, his eyes fixed on the door of the operating room.

Finally, there was movement inside.

Yao Weihua hurriedly stepped forward, but saw Xia Jingyi lying there exhausted, with sweat covering half of her face. The stark contrast between black and white made the woman's face look even more haggard.

He was a man with a rosy face when he started the attack, but now he is as pale as a piece of T-paper.

It can be seen that childbirth is not an easy thing for any woman.

Some even need the mercy of the god of death to be stopped at the gates of hell and return to the world of the living.

Yao Weihua helped her to push away the scattered hair and quickly pushed the operating cart to the ward.

By then, Xia Jingyi had no energy to ask about the two children's condition. She raised her neck with a dry mouth and wanted to say something, but the blood loss during the operation made her a little dizzy. Her neck only raised less than three centimeters before falling back on the pillow.

Yao Zhizhi guessed what she was going to say, quickly picked up a sippy cup, tilted the bed up a little, and asked, "Third sister-in-law, do you want some water?"

"No, you have to wait six hours." The nurse who followed in immediately stopped him.

Yao Zhizhi had already done her homework on this matter. She explained, "I know. We won't drink it, just a little bit to moisten our lips."

The nurse sighed: "Well, you must hold it in."

Yao Zhizhi understood and quickly pinched the straw to let Xia Jingyi moisten her lips.

Xia Jingyi also knew that she had to listen to the doctors and nurses at this time, so she didn't dare to take a big sip. She only sucked a little bit and held it in her mouth to moisten her lips.

She closed her eyes in pain. Speaking would only make her thirstier, so she had to keep her words to herself.

Little Moon beside her quickly tugged at her mother's sleeve: "Mom, my aunt said she wants to see the baby."

Yao Zhizhi quickly brought the little girl from the crib over and said, "Sister-in-law, this is for you. The second child has lost a little weight, so he's in the incubator."

Xia Jingyi weakly opened her eyelids and took a look. Seeing that the child was sleeping quietly with his eyes closed, she felt relieved. As for the other one, she really couldn't care less. Within two minutes, he fell into a deep sleep.

Yao Weihua quickly called the nanny to bring fish soup.

Yao Zhizhi asked, "Is it black fish soup or crucian carp soup?"

"Black fish. According to the saying in my hometown, if you have surgery, you should drink black fish soup so that the wound will not itch afterwards." Yao Weihua knows the folk customs very well.

Yao Zhizhi had also heard of this statement. Although she didn't understand the principle behind it, she believed that black fish soup was indeed a good thing with high protein and high nutrition. It would never be a bad thing to drink some.

As for inducing lactation, there is no rush. Firstly, since the second child needs to live in an incubator, milk powder must be prepared, and the eldest child can just drink it together; secondly, the mother has just undergone surgery and is physically and mentally exhausted. As long as the baby is not hungry, there is really no need to torment the mother again.

Let’s wait until Third Sister-in-law wants to breastfeed. Even if she doesn’t want to, Third Brother can afford to buy milk powder.

Yao Zhizhi didn't say much, just reminded: "It's hot, let the nanny come later."

That’s right. Yao Weihua went to the information desk and made a phone call. After returning, he stayed by the bedside, waiting for Xia Jingyi to wake up.

It was late at night, and Yao Zhizhi was ready to stay, so she asked Qi Changxiao to take the child back.

Xia Jingyi woke up in the middle of the night and actually called the midwife to start breastfeeding.

Yao Zhizhi watched from the side, occasionally helping to pass a towel or something, trying her best not to interfere with the decision of her sister-in-law, as everything was voluntary.

After all, Yao Zhizhi gave birth naturally, and postpartum care is not suitable for women who had a caesarean section.

The nurse returned to the lounge and couldn't help but complain to the midwife: "That Miss Yao is quite considerate, unlike the Miss Huang family, who bosses her sister-in-law around like she's the mother-in-law."

The midwife also sighed, "Yes, it's rare to find such a quiet sister-in-law who doesn't cause trouble. That's why I always tell my daughter that when she gets married, she'd rather marry someone with many brothers than a bunch of sisters. Otherwise, she'll have to suffer from having to have multiple mothers-in-law for nothing. What's the point?"

The nurse also sighed: "Having too many brothers is not good either. There will be conflicts between sisters-in-law. It is best to have only one son."

"That's harder than winning at the horse races!"

"Yeah, where else can you find a family with only one son? I really envy Mrs. Yao's good fortune. Although Mr. Yao has brothers and sisters, he's rich and has no scandals. He's simply the perfect man."

"Who knows? Maybe he has a baby secretly. He just does it on the surface for show." The midwife was pessimistic about the men in this world. After all, all men are the same.

The nurse was younger after all, so she wasn't so pessimistic. She smiled and said, "I don't think so. I met Mr. Yao the last time I went to the mall. He personally selected all the maternity supplies I was buying. He also brought male drivers and male servants with him. He's a very chaste man."

The midwife was a little surprised: "Is it true?"

"Of course it's true. Besides, his wife manages the accounts of his pharmacy. Doesn't this explain his attitude?"

"Did Mrs. Yao save the entire universe in her previous life?"

"Hahaha, maybe it's true."

The night passed by with lots of chatting and laughing.

Yao Zhizhi fell asleep on the bed at some point. When she woke up, Xia Jingyi was already feeding her. Yao Weihua was helping her pick out fish bones. After picking them out, he checked them several times before feeding the baby to Xia Jingyi.

Yao Zhizhi didn't want to be a third wheel here, so she went out to wash up.

When she came back, the couple was still being affectionate with each other, so she went to the incubator to see how her nephew was doing.

Fortunately, everything was fine, and the little guy was discharged from the hospital with his mother and sister a few days later.

Back home, Yao Weihua solemnly convened a family meeting: "This is what happened. The doctor told me that the first baby to come out was Zai Zai, and the second was Nan Nan. But these past few days, we've all been treating Nan Nan like the eldest. Now I'm having a headache. Which of these two children is the eldest and which is the second?"

Yao Zhizhi smiled: "Why bother with all this effort? It's only a few minutes, they're the same age, don't call them brother or sister, just call them by their names."

Yao Weihua thought for a moment and said, "Alright, then there won't be a distinction between the eldest and the second."

As for names, he had already thought of two and simply drew lots. The final result was that the girl would be named Yao Zhengxian, which sounds like "to compete first", and the boy would be named Yao Zhengsheng, which sounds like "to compete to win".

Even the meaning of the name is the same. After all, the one who is ahead wins.

Yao Zhizhi quite liked these two names. After reading them several times, she felt they were more and more suitable, so she started to spend the whole day taking care of her two little nieces and nephews.

As for the mother, hey, she has nothing to do with it at all, Comrade Yao Weihua took care of it all.

He doesn't worry much about the children. It really proves the saying that parents are the true love and children are just accidents.

The summer vacation was almost over in a flash, and Xia Jingyi didn't mention anything about her parents' family at all, which made the one million yuan prepared by Yao Weihua completely useless.

Yao Zhizhi was completely relieved. Her sister-in-law was so determined to break off relations with her family, and she would succeed in everything she did.

She sincerely wishes her brother and sister-in-law a happy marriage.

Since she had nothing to do with her brother and sister-in-law, she packed up and prepared to leave. They were heading north anyway, so before returning to school, she went back to Yicheng.

Once you get back, there will be a lot of fun to watch.
