Ye Shuning, a Doctor of Chemistry, was struck by a meteorite and transmigrated into a chronicle novel she had read, becoming the male lead's cannon fodder ex-wife.
She just wants to stay ...
After instructing her son, Yang Jinping went back with everyone else. Staying in the hospital would disturb her daughter-in-law's rest.
Ye Shuning was staying in a single room. After everyone left, Li Shaozhong closed the door. The child was lying on another bed. Li Shaozhong touched Ye Shuning's hair and said softly, "Xiao Ning, I'm taking care of the child. You can rest assured and get some sleep."
Ye Shuning said, "If I fall asleep, you must not leave the ward. If you leave, wake me up. I've heard that there are people who specialize in stealing newborn babies in hospitals. We have to be careful."
Li Shaozhong nodded, "Don't worry, I won't leave the ward, you can sleep peacefully."
Only after Ye Shuning gave the instructions did she fall asleep peacefully.
There was hot water in the thermos that Li Shaoting had just poured, so Li Shaozhong poured some of it into a cup to cool. When the water was about the right temperature, he poured it into the baby bottle and then used the bottle to feed the baby.
The child didn't cry at all. He closed his eyes, drank a few sips of water, and fell asleep.
Li Shaozhong's heart melted as he watched his son, his eyes closed and his lips pursed. He wished he could bring him all the best things in the world. He felt the responsibility on his shoulders grow heavier, and he felt like his life had been extended. Perhaps this was the feeling of being connected by blood.
Li Shaozhong sat by his wife's hospital bed, taking care of her and their child, while also thinking about his future path.
When Yang Jinping and her friends arrived home, their nanny, Mrs. Wang, was preparing chicken soup and millet porridge. Yang Jinping also boiled a few eggs. Li Shaozhong also needed to eat, so Yang Jinping prepared some other food.
When he got home, Li Shaoting called Li Shaoyang and told him that Ye Shuning had given birth to a boy and both mother and child were safe.
Li Shaoyang was delighted when he received the call. "Now I'm the second uncle. Mom must be overjoyed, right?"
Li Shaoting turned around to look at his mother who was busy working inside and outside and smiled, "Of course Mom is very happy now. She's busy making food for Xiao Ning right now. She has to take her to the hospital soon."
At this time, Ye Xingguo answered the phone and said, "Shaoyang, Xiaoning has given birth. I will be going back in two days. Is everything okay over there?"
Li Shaoyang replied, "It's okay for you to stay home with Xiao Ning for a few more days. I'm here, and everything is fine. I train with those guys every day. Come back and see them, they're sure to have improved. The training method you devised is really good. But they all say it's a bit harsh, and they cry for their parents every day."
Ye Xingguo snorted, "How can you train your fighting ability without being ruthless? Don't be soft-hearted, I can even complete the training. These young and strong men are not as good as me. They just need more training."
Li Shaoyang grinned after hearing what Ye Xingguo said, thinking to himself, how many people can compare to your abnormal physique? That's right, Li Shaoyang felt that Ye Xingguo was a bit abnormal. Even a young man like himself, who was a dozen years younger than him, couldn't compare to him. Isn't that abnormal enough?
He felt that he needed to practice more. It was embarrassing to be outdone by a middle-aged man who was more than ten years older than him. But fortunately, no one could beat him, so everyone was embarrassed together.
Ye Shuning had just given birth and would have to breastfeed, so she couldn't eat anything too salty, or even anything that had no saltiness at all. Yang Jinping and the nanny, Mrs. Wang, had both given birth before and were well aware of these precautions.
After the meal was ready, Yang Jinping quickly asked her eldest son to drive her to the hospital.
At home, Li Jianye and Ye Xingguo began to discuss the name of their child. This was a big deal for them. They fetched a dictionary and began a heated discussion.
Li Shaoting helped his mother carry the lunch box and thermos bucket to Ye Shuning's ward. After knocking on the door, Li Shaozhong came to open it and the two of them went in.
At this time, Ye Shuning woke up from a nap. Seeing her mother-in-law coming to bring her food, she felt really hungry. She had used up a lot of energy before and now needed to replenish her energy.
Yang Jinping took the lunch box from her eldest son and placed it on the small cabinet beside the bed. "Xiao Ning, you must be hungry. I brought you chicken soup, millet porridge, and eggs. You need something light right now, so there's not much salt in this chicken soup. Just drink some. Even if you don't like it, drink more."
Ye Shuning was helped up by Li Shaozhong and leaned against the bed. She smelled the aroma of the food and said, "Mom, I know, chicken soup and millet porridge are already very good. I know that for the sake of the child, we can't eat anything with too strong flavors. It's not good for the child."
Yang Jinping first poured a bowl of chicken soup for her daughter-in-law. It was now at the perfect temperature and ready to drink. Ye Shuning took the soup and took a sip. It tasted very light, almost without any saltiness. Without the saltiness, the chicken soup really wasn't very tasty, but for the sake of the child and to increase her milk production, she had to force herself to drink it.
After drinking a bowl of chicken soup, Ye Shuning drank a bowl of millet porridge with some brown sugar, and ate an egg, she could not eat any more.
Li Shaozhong finished the rest, as he would make fresh soup for the next meal. However, he added some salt to the chicken soup, so it tasted alright.
At this time, the child started crying, and Yang Jinping quickly picked up the child and comforted him.
Li Shaozhong put down his food and said, "Mom, I just made some milk. The temperature should be fine. Please try feeding the child."
Yang Jinping saw a half-empty bottle of milk on the small table nearby. She checked the temperature and found it was ok, so she took the bottle and fed the child. The little guy stopped crying after eating the food and started drinking milk.
At this time, several people were watching the baby breastfeeding and felt that it was a very interesting thing.
Li Shaoting thought about how he'd barely been around his son when he was little, having spent most of his time with his grandmother. His ex-wife also didn't pay much attention to the child. This made him feel even more sorry for his son.
Ye Shuning stayed in the hospital for a few days and then was discharged and went home.
The first thing Li Jingyu did after school was visit his aunt and brother. He lay beside the crib, staring at his sleeping little brother in amazement. He turned to look at his aunt and whispered, "Aunt, my brother is so small."
Ye Shuning smiled and said, "You grew up from a little kid to this size. When your little brother can walk and run, it will be your turn to play with him. You have to protect him."
Li Jingyu nodded heavily, "From now on, I will protect my little brother."
Li Jingyu thought about what his father and grandfather had said, looked at his aunt, and asked, "Aunt, will you and uncle go to the south to work in the future?"
Ye Shuning said casually: "Your uncle and I may go to the south to work."
Li Jingyu asked expectantly, "Aunt, can I join you?"
Ye Shuning was stunned for a moment when she heard this. She looked at Li Jingyu, who seemed a little expectant and nervous, and touched his head and said, "Jingyu, do you want to go south with us? Are you willing to leave your father, grandfather, and grandmother?"
Li Jingyu lowered his head and twirled his fingers, whispering, "I want to follow you."
