Lín Wēi only realized when she died that having a sister-favoring mother would cause so much damage to her family.
Her father fell from a great height and died. Her younger brother went mis...
Lin Wei pursed her lips, completely disbelieving what the nurse said.
Fortunately, Shen Jize had brought Lin Xiaomeng over these past two days. Upon hearing the nurse's message, Lin Xiaomeng quickly said, "You silly child, all newborns are like this. They'll be fine in a couple of days. Why do you say they look ugly right away? The child will be so heartbroken to hear that."
Leaving Lin Wei aside, Shen Jize also thought the child looked wrinkled, but he was still his own flesh and blood—
"Yes, it will get better with rest."
The facilities in the port city are indeed more complete, and since the two of them are rich, they have the best wards, the best treatment, and the best service, so Lin Wei has no bad experience at all.
Sure enough, after two days, the baby's skin turned rosy and plump, and it looked really good.
And judging by the child's weight, he is indeed quite fat.
"8 pounds 9 ounces, thank goodness she was delivered via C-section. If she had given birth in our area, Weiwei might have suffered twice as much." Lin Xiaomeng still feels lingering fear when she thinks about it now. "When you were pregnant, your belly was terrifyingly big, but you didn't gain much weight. A pound is considered a heavy baby. I just didn't expect her to be this heavy."
"We didn't expect it either. Actually, looking back, I'm quite glad."
Lin Wei had been listless the other day, so she didn't ask. "What are your names for the baby? The nurses have come over several times, and you still haven't decided on a name? I see Jize running around busily, but I don't know what he's busy with."
At this point, Lin Wei said helplessly, "It's decided, the name is Shen Xi. Ji Ze consulted several people to calculate it, and this name is the most suitable. These past few days, I was worried that the name might not be chosen well, so I consulted a few more people to calculate it. Now it's finally completely confirmed."
Shen Jize wasn't annoyed. "A child's name is a big deal. We can't make a hasty decision. The masters all say this name is good and it's definitely a perfect match for our child. I'll get the birth certificate done in a bit. Don't rush me."
After Shen Jize finished speaking, he left the ward, and the aunt and niece couldn't help but shake their heads.
"We should still believe in science, even if it's feudal superstition."
-
A week later, Lin Wei was discharged from the hospital.
Shen Jize's arrangements were so thorough and meticulous that Lin Xiaomeng had no chance to use her skills. After a couple of days, she prepared to go back.
Lin Yuan didn't want to stay here in the first place. As Lin Xiaomeng packed her things, Lin Wei hurriedly asked, "Yuanyuan, are you going back with your aunt? If you don't leave this time, you might have to stay until the start of the new semester to go back."
To everyone's surprise, Lin Yuan refused to leave, saying, "I'm not leaving. I'll stay here and take care of my sister."
Lin Yuan's attitude was quite interesting. "No, weren't you always eager to leave? Your aunt is going back, are you sure you don't want to leave?"
"Sister, you're asking a question you already know the answer to. It's so interesting every day, I'm not going to leave."
But after Lin Xiaomeng was sent away, Lin Yuan's nightmare began.
Guns are fun, but you can't do them without a good physique. To improve his physical fitness, Lin Yuan trained from morning till night.
Just three days later, he came to Lin Wei with a long face and complained.
"Sister, my brother-in-law is torturing me, I want to go back."
“It’s too late. I told you to go back the other day but you didn’t. I’m still in my postpartum period. Your brother-in-law has to work, so who will take you? Just stay here obediently.”
"But," Lin Yuan wanted to try again, "Sister, do you know what kind of life I lead every day?"
"I know, but Yuanyuan, you're a big kid now. If you want something, you have to give something in return. And in life, things can't always go your way."
Lin Yuan understood this principle; he had only enjoyed a few good days, but he hadn't forgotten his roots.
He was just really tired.
"Sis, can the training intensity be reduced? I'm so tired."
“Yuan, this is a port city, not a river city, and it’s not hot. Hang in there, just hang in there, it’ll only be a little over a month.”
It didn't take that long. Once Lin Wei finished her postpartum confinement, a completely new Lin Yuan had already been trained.
With the start of the new school term approaching, Lin Wei stopped bothering the other person.
"Alright, you have one more week. You can either rest well or have fun. We'll leave in a week."
But as he practiced, Lin Yuan didn't want to give up. "Sis, you're going to learn too, right? I'll go with you. I'm slowly getting used to it."
"Not only have you adapted, you've also grown taller. If we come here every summer, Yuanyuan, you'll definitely grow into a handsome 190cm tall guy."
The thought of a month of nightmarish life that he would have to go through every year made Lin Yuan restless.
"Sister, please stop torturing me. Why tell me so soon? Wouldn't it be better to give me more hope for life?"
"well."
-
Training ground.
Shen Jize took her under his wing and personally taught her.
When the two of them came over, he even took out the hand-held wooden gun that he had customized for her from the box.
"What's this?" Lin Wei picked it up, and it fit her hand perfectly. "It's just right."
"It's specially made for you. Try it out first, and then I'll teach you how to use it."
For example, the correct grip and shooting posture require stability and accuracy.
Shen Jize then taught her about the various departments and functions of the timber warehouse.
For example, safety, single-shot, loading, unloading, etc.
Afterwards, you will need to wear earplugs and earmuffs to protect your hearing, and wear goggles to prevent eye injuries from shards.
Then, step by step, use the wooden pistol to aim at the loquat.
In fact, a lot of time has already been spent on the initial process.
Lin Wei had just finished her postpartum confinement period, and Shen Jize didn't allow her to stay outside for too long. After casually playing with a gun for a few minutes, he forced her to go home.
"No, nobody said that shooting a gun is so fun."
Shen Jize was speechless after hearing this. "That's because there's no danger around you. And what's with your skills? You got 7 or 8 rings with all 5 guns. Aren't guns banned inland? Your skills are exceptional. Many people study for a long time but don't have this level of skill."
"Ah, then maybe it's something you were born with," Lin Wei asked curiously. "What about Yuan Yuan?"
"Not bad, but not quite as good as yours."
-
Lin Wei was truly enjoying herself. Although Shen Jize controlled the time she spent playing with the gun, she timed it perfectly, not wasting a single second, and was completely absorbed in the game.
Two days later, Lin Wei still hadn't seen Lin Yuan with her, so she asked curiously, "Hey, isn't Yuan Yuan studying with me?"
Lin Yuan almost laughed in anger, "Sis, you finally remembered me. I'm not only learning this, I'm also learning to ride horses. You didn't see me for the past two days, I was taking equestrian lessons."
Although he quite liked these classes, his sister's attitude—
"Sister, I'm your younger brother, do you remember me?"
"How could I not remember? If you weren't my brother, I would have blown your head off with a gun. Alright, we'll study for two more days, then we should head back."
