"Yan Yan, I really want to see what you looked like when you were little."
Lu Yan's heart skipped a beat; she felt like crying, but she couldn't.
“I’m all grown up now, how can you tell? Just look at your younger brother more. I think I probably looked like this when I was little.”
Looking at her sensible daughter, Lu Zhixia felt she owed her child too much, but thankfully she could make up for it in the future.
A loud crash broke the silence.
"Is the commotion next door happening again?" Cai Wei said.
“We can’t control that much, let them just let things take their course!” Gu Dongsheng said.
Then came a roar, "You bastard, I married my sister to you so you could bully her like this!"
"Brother!" the man pleaded, "I didn't do anything. I didn't hit her or scold her."
"You just wait!" he shouted, then stepped aside. "Hey, come back with me!"
The woman was so moved that tears streamed down her face. "I'll go back with you, sister-in-law—"
To avoid frightening his sister, he could only whisper, "It was your sister-in-law who suggested that you stay home to recover after childbirth."
"Really?" She smiled happily. "Then what are we waiting for? Let's pack our things and go back."
When the man heard that his wife was going back to her brother-in-law's house, he was worried that if anyone in the village found out that his wife wasn't going back to her husband's family home to recuperate after giving birth, his whole family would be scorned.
So he quickly tried to stop them, saying, "This won't do. My mom has already made preparations. If you do this, it will be difficult for me when I go back."
The woman looked at him coldly and said, "I'll talk to you after I finish my postpartum confinement."
This was also a statement I made to myself: why should I spend my whole life entangled with him?
Since such a person is already rotten, then we don't need them!
He felt humiliated by the woman's cold gaze, but when he turned around and saw his tall and strong brother-in-law, he didn't dare to make a move.
All I could do was watch them pack their things and leave with the child.
The woman went to the next ward and bowed to everyone.
"Thank you for helping me last night. I'd like to say thank you on behalf of my child!"
Cai Wei said, "You're too kind, child. You need a scarf on your head." She turned around, took a spare scarf from her bag, and went over to wrap the woman's head with it.
"This way you won't be exposed to the wind. When you get back, take good care of yourself, try not to touch cold water, and don't get upset."
"Thank you, Auntie!" She was deeply moved. During her most difficult time last night, it was this family who lent a helping hand. Otherwise, she didn't know what would have become of her.
Last night, she had a sudden thought of death and silently looked out the window.
Cai Wei watched them leave, and then saw the man come out of the house.
"His grandma is going too far! Wait till I come knocking on your door, and I'll teach you a lesson!"
"If you're so capable, don't ever come back here again!"
"What's so great about having a girl! She really thinks she's some kind of phoenix!"
As the sound faded into the distance, it became impossible to tell what he was cursing.
Lu Zhixia thought of the woman's haggard appearance and could only say that every family has its own problems. However, seeing the woman's determined eyes, she might have already thought about divorce.
——
The hospital originally required them to stay for two days, but they insisted on staying an extra day, just in case something dangerous happened.
On the day of discharge.
Lu Zhixia was overjoyed that she could finally go home. She had been eating bland and tasteless food for the past few days, and her mouth felt like it had lost its flavor.
It's worth mentioning that she ate only plain water, and they ate with her, which touched her deeply.
When she went upstairs, her incision hurt, so Gu Lingxiao simply carried her up the stairs by the waist.
When I get home, everything feels comfortable, even just lying in bed.
Fortunately, I have more breast milk now, so they don't need formula anymore.
In her opinion, her own breast milk is the most nutritious, and she couldn't help but smile when she saw her child eating happily.
When Gu Lingxiao came in and saw this scene, his eyes burned with anger. Those two brats were eating quite well.
He had been eating vegetarian food for several months, and before leaving today, he specifically asked the doctor, who said it was best not to have sex for three months. So he was disappointed and had to endure it for another three months.
He has sacrificed so much for these two little ones.
Cai Wei wanted to go inside and saw her son standing at the door. Looking inside, she saw her daughter-in-law breastfeeding the baby. As someone with experience, she immediately knew what her son was up to and quickly patted him on the back.
"Let me in. This freshly made crucian carp soup will become fishy once it cools down."
Gu Lingxiao turned sideways to let his mother in, then watched as the child was placed on the bed. The little guy was laughing non-stop. In just a few days, the child had grown a lot. If you looked closely, you could see that the best features of both parents were in the child.
