Chapter 135

"Oh, I have a little brother! I have a little brother!" Yueyue jumped up happily when she saw the little guy in the nurse's arms.

Lin Tao was lying on the hospital bed and was also wheeled out. Li Chengxi walked over quickly, took her hand and asked, "Tao, we will never have another child again."

No more children, never again.

Lin Tao smiled at him, then looked at Yueyue who was dancing with joy beside her, and said to Li Chengxi, "Let Yueyue see her brother."

Yueyue looked at her wrinkled little brother who looked like a little monkey, but there was no disdain in her eyes. She said, "Mom, my little brother is so cute. I like him so much."

Originally, Chen Shuifen was still saying that Xingxing was not as good-looking as Yueyue when he was born, but in Yueyue's eyes, her brother is very handsome.

Zheng Hongxing leaned over to take a look: "It's wrinkled, how can it be beautiful?"

Yueyue pouted: "Humph, Brother Hongxing, I won't pay attention to you."

Wang Qingming said, "Don't pay attention to him. Aunt Shuifen said he was the ugliest when he was little. I also think my brother is very cute."

A few children were arguing with each other, which made all the adults present laugh.

Yueyue said, "Aunt, I picked up a lot of things today. Would you like to cook them for my brother?"

Aunt Fang said, "Xingxing is still young and can't eat these. He needs milk. Auntie cooked it for Yueyue."

Zheng Hongxing widened her eyes: "Xingxing? Aren't you talking about me?"

Chen Shuifen said, "I'm not talking about you. You are Hongxing, Yueyue's brother is Yanxing, and he and Yueyue are like a star and a moon. What does it have to do with you?"

Zheng Hongxing scratched the back of his head and said "Oh". He thought Granny Fang was talking about him.

Both the mother and the newborn baby need to rest well. Seeing that Lin Tao and her baby are safe, everyone is relieved and stops bothering them. Chen Shuifen and Xu Yuting are envious of Lin Tao for having both a son and a daughter. Chen Shuifen is still saying, "Teacher Lin, how come you are so good at giving birth?"

Lin Tao hadn't thought about these things. Anyway, she had thought about it when she was pregnant. No matter whether it was a son or a daughter, she would still like Yueyue. Giving birth to a son would be like giving Yueyue a younger brother, so that there would be someone to support the family in the future. Giving birth to a younger sister would be good for the two sisters to discuss things in the future.

After returning home, Wang Yuanliang asked Xu Yuting: "How is it, did Teacher Lin give birth to a daughter or a son?"

Wang Qingming went to put the bucket away and said, "A little brother was born. He looks like a little monkey, wrinkled."

Wang Yuanliang was cooking at home today. The food was ready. Xu Yuting poured a basin of water and prepared to wash her hands before eating. When she heard Wang Qingming's words, she asked, "Just now in the hospital you said that your Aunt Lin's little brother was cute. Why do you say he looks like a little monkey now?"

Wang Qingming said seriously: "If I say my little brother is ugly, Yueyue will definitely be sad. I was just trying to comfort her. You don't understand."

"..." Xu Yuting was speechless. Who did this kid learn this from? She thought she didn't understand. "Didn't you go fishing today? Why did you come back with an empty bucket? Didn't you find anything? No way? I saw Yueyue found a lot, but you didn't even find any hairy clams."

Wang Yuanliang washed his hands, sat down at the dining table, and said, "I gave it all to Yueyue, proving that you were saying a few days ago that you didn't want to eat seafood anymore because you ate too much."

Xu Yuting pouted. She had said this last time, but it was just a saying. The brat still remembered it. But she had no objection to giving the seafood to Yueyue.

Before Xu Yuting could say anything, Wang Yuanliang smiled and said, "Yes, Yuting, you see our son has a bright future. Qingming, you should be nicer to Yueyue. Dad wants Yueyue to be the daughter-in-law of our Wang family in the future."

Wang Qingming glanced at his father Wang Yuanliang with an expressionless face.

Xu Yuting glared at Wang Yuanliang and said, "Why are you telling this to the children? Qingming and Yueyue are only a few years old. If Li Chengxi hears this, he will skin you alive."

Wang Yuanliang smiled and happily started to eat.

Yueyue is such a lovable daughter-in-law. Even though Xu Yuting doesn't want to have any more daughters, he can't have any more daughters-in-law, but it would be great if Yueyue could be his daughter-in-law.

At night, Wang Yuanliang approached Xu Yuting and started to say something naughty: "Yuting, look, your teacher Lin and his family already have a son and a daughter, when are we going to have another child?..."

As soon as she finished speaking, Xu Yuting slapped her hand and said, "If you want to have a child, go ahead and give birth to it. I've already given birth to your son. What else do you want? If I give birth to another son, who can I complain to? Anyway, I'm not going to give birth to another child."

Wang Yuanliang actually respected Xu Yuting very much. Ever since Xu Yuting gave birth to Wang Qingming, Wang Qingming is now six years old. If it were someone else, they would have given birth to at least two children in these six years, but Wang Yuanliang never mentioned this.

The main reason I said this today is because Li Chengxi has both a son and a daughter, and I feel a little jealous.

Even though Xu Yuting slapped her in the face, she was not angry. She smiled and said, "That's fine. We don't have to have a child. We have a son. When the time comes, we can take the daughter of Li Chengxi's family and make her our daughter-in-law. She will be our daughter as well."

****************************

After a month of care, Xingxing has gained a lot of weight compared to when she was just born, and her previously red skin has turned white.

When Aunt Fang was bathing Xingxing, she said, "These two children have the same skin color as you. That's great. They are so fair and tender."

Lin Changhai said: "Yueyue is a girl, it's okay for her to be a little white, but Xingxing is a boy, it's not good for him to be too white."

"There's nothing to be afraid of. Boys play like crazy and might get tanned in the future," said Aunt Fang.

I don’t know if it was because when Xingxing was still in the belly, he listened to his sister reading picture books and texts to him every day, and after he was born, he became extremely sensitive to Yueyue’s voice.

Sometimes he was half asleep and half awake while drinking milk, but when he heard Yueyue's voice, he immediately became alert.

Yueyue loves this younger brother very much. Before going to school every day, she would come to the room to take a look at her younger brother, kiss his little hand, and then reluctantly go to school.

However, Li Chengxi didn't know whether it was because it was his second time being a father and he wasn't as fresh as the first time, or he wasn't as patient with his son as he was with his daughter. Although when Xingxing cried at night, he would definitely get up the first time to see if Xingxing had urinated again, or was hungry again, etc.

But when Yueyue cried, Li Chengxi always said, "Yueyue, be good, don't cry, Daddy will see if you have peed." But when Xingxing cried, he would say, "You little brat, why are you crying again? You cried several times in one night and woke up your mother. I have to punish you."

Another peculiarity is that Li Chengxi's way of determining whether Xingxing has pooped is to pull off the diaper directly, rather than putting his nose close to it and smell it.

Lin Tao asked him why he didn't smell anymore, was his nose not working well? He frowned and said he didn't like his son's stinky smell. Lin Tao looked at him and said, "When Yueyue was little, you didn't say that."

"You little rascal, you're a sly girl." Li Chengxi said.

Look, the contrast is too obvious.

I don’t know if Xingxing noticed the different way his father treated him. One time he started crying and Aunt Fang was washing clothes at the time, so Lin Tao asked Li Chengxi to go and see why Xingxing was crying and whether he had wet himself again.

As a result, as soon as Li Chengqi opened the diaper, Xingxing's little penis fluttered and peed directly on him. If he hadn't reacted quickly, it would have probably peed directly on his face.

Li Chengxi looked at the face that looked 80% like his own with a stern face. He wanted to get angry, but in the end he just patted Xingxing on the butt lightly: "This brat."

It happened that Yueyue came back from school at this time. The first thing she did was put down her schoolbag and ran in to look at Xingxing. As a result, she saw Li Chengxi slapping Xingxing on the butt.

Yueyue walked over and said angrily: "Dad, how can you hit my brother? My brother is so young and doesn't know anything. How can you hit him?"

Facing his daughter's accusation, Li Chengxi tried to explain: "Because my brother was naughty, he just peed on daddy, you see."

Li Chengxi showed Yueyue the evidence of his crime. There was a yellow urine stain on his white military uniform, like a map.

Yueyue looked at the evidence, then at her brother. She thought he was adorable no matter how she looked at him. She said, "You can't hit your brother. He's so young. He doesn't know."

"Xingxing, you can't pee on daddy anymore. You have to be good, okay?" Yueyue said, nodding to herself, "Dad, look, Xingxing smiled at me. He said he knew. If he doesn't behave well in the future, tell me and I will tell him, but you can't hit him, even lightly."

Since Xingxing was born, Yueyue seemed to have grown up a lot and began to feel like a big sister.

After all, this is the little brother she has been looking forward to for a long time. The rag doll that she always hugged to sleep in the past is no longer her favorite. Every night before going to bed, she must come to see if her brother is asleep. Only when she sees that her brother has fallen asleep will she go to sleep soundly.

Li Chengxi could only nod his head in front of his daughter: "Okay, I understand."

After getting the guarantee, Yueyue nodded with satisfaction, spent some time with her brother, and then went to do her homework.

As a bystander who watched this good show, Lin Tao couldn't help but smile. Her daughter is really amazing. She can even teach Deputy Brigade Commander Li a lesson.

When Li Chengxi walked out, Aunt Fang saw the stain on his clothes and quickly asked, "Hey, how did you get that?" After taking a look at the inner room, she figured it out, "Xingxing must have peed on you, right? Come on, take it off quickly, I'll help you wash it."

"Aunt Fang, it's okay. I can wash my own clothes. You are here to take care of the children and A Tao. There is no need to trouble you with my own affairs. After you wash Xingxing's clothes, go and have a rest. You have been too tired these days." Li Chengxi said.

Aunt Fang said, "I'm not tired. Yueyue and Xingxing are both easy to take care of. I'm not tired at all."

What I said is true. These two children were not noisy during the confinement period. They just ate and slept, and were very easy to take care of.

This time, because Lin Changhai was at home to help take care of the baby, and Lin Tao also had experience in taking care of children, Aunt Fang did not stay as long as she did with the first child. This time she stayed for less than two months, taking care of Lin Tao for the full 42 days of confinement, and then returned to Xiangcheng.

When she left, Lin Tao gave her a hundred yuan, but Aunt Fang refused to take it and insisted on returning it.

Lin Tao said, "Aunt Fang, take it. You came all the way here, so I have to show my appreciation. Otherwise, not only will I feel bad, but my dad and Cheng Xi will also blame me."

But this time, Aunt Fang was determined not to take the money. She stuffed the money back into Xingxing's swaddling clothes and said, "Why should I feel guilty? I treat you as my daughter, and you are here to take care of my grandson. How can a grandmother take money to serve her grandson and to take care of her daughter during the confinement period? What grandmother would do this? You were like this when you gave birth to Yueyue. You can't do it this time."

There was no other way. Seeing Aunt Fang say this, Lin Tao had no choice but to stop paying.

Before giving out the money, Lin Tao asked Li Chengxi to prepare some more things for Aunt Fang and take them back.

Not long after Lin Tao came out of confinement, guests came to her home.

The people who came were Zhou Wen and Zhong Jing. They hadn't seen each other for half a year. Lin Tao didn't expect Zhong Jing to come to her on her own initiative. However, the moment she saw Zhong Jing, she understood that this must be Zhong Jing's vindication!

Sure enough, when Zhong Jing arrived, she told her the good news: "Teacher Lin, what you said to me last year was right. The current policy is better, and your brother Zhou has been rehabilitated!"
