Chapter 227 Dating after marriage
"You should drink more, we can just eat the vegetables, you still have to feed the child." Aunt Lu hurriedly advised when she saw it.
Lin Xia didn't agree with this in her heart. She knew that Aunt Lu meant well, but that wasn't the way things were. She couldn't accept that all the good things in the house had to be eaten by her alone just because she had just given birth to a child.
"There's so much chicken soup, I can't finish it all by myself!" She didn't want to drink chicken soup for every meal, so there was still leftover chicken soup from meal to meal.
After saying that, Lin Xia stood up and served everyone a bowl of chicken soup. "It's more delicious if we drink together! Besides, my aunt has worked so hard to help me take care of the children, so she needs to replenish her body. Don't get too tired!"
"Dad, drink more. It's been hard for you to take care of me these days!" Lin Xia looked at Lu Yuxiu. He had been guarding her every step of the way in the hospital these past few nights.
Just because Lin Xia thought of those movies where children were abducted and stolen, she couldn't help but have wild thoughts in her mind. She was worried that someone would steal children at night and she woke up from time to time.
After Lu Yuxiu found out, he decided to stay with her at night, and Lin Xia gradually fell asleep well. Although the child would wake up when she was hungry, she felt at ease knowing that Lu Yuxiu was by her side.
"And baby An An! You've been so good these past few days, helping mom to coax your younger brothers and sisters. That's great! I'll reward you with a big chicken leg!" Lin Xia gently looked at the silent little guy on the side and praised him emphatically.
"Mom, I take my younger brothers and sisters out to play and give them all the toys!" When An An heard the praise, her little face was full of excitement. She was praised by her mother!
"Thank you, mom! Come and eat the chicken leg!" Lin Xia was amused by her words and touched her head.
Lin Xia noticed that An An was unhappy recently, but it was not convenient to ask more questions in the hospital, so Lin Xia was thinking about finding an opportunity to chat with her.
An An is a sensitive child. It may be due to the environment he grew up in that he has a sensitive and thoughtful character. Lin Xia has also gradually figured out how to get along with him. Such children need a lot of encouragement and praise.
The meal was eaten quickly. Lu Yuxiu had been trained by Lin Xia a long time ago, so cooking a few home-cooked dishes was no problem for him.
From that day on, Lin Xia started to stay at home to recuperate after giving birth. She could still walk, but Aunt Lu always wanted her to lie down and rest. However, anyone who lies down knows that one will feel exhausted after lying down for a whole day.
Fortunately, Aunt Lu was also very busy and couldn't watch over her all the time. Lu Yuxiu had already returned to the camp after his leave. The two little ones who ate and slept all the time were easy to take care of. The only difficult thing was that they were very straightforward and had to poop soon after eating.
Fortunately, Lin Xia prepared a lot of diapers, and the weather was good, so they dried quickly.
No matter how many diapers there are, someone has to wash them when they get dirty. When Lu Yuxiu is at home, of course he washes them. When he is not at home, only Aunt Lu can wash them because Aunt Lu does not allow Lin Xia to touch water.
The two little ones who were sleeping soundly just ate, defecated and slept. Aunt Lu had to wash them immediately if they got dirty. Lin Xia felt very embarrassed and missed disposable diapers very much.
After lying down for a few days, Lin Xia felt her legs were a little swollen. Seeing that Aunt Lu had no time to take care of her, she put a mat and a blanket in the room and started doing some yoga exercises.
She only knows a few simple movements, which are gentle and not difficult. She doesn't dare to do more and only does them for an hour every day.
When she was about to leave the confinement period, Lin Xia could clearly feel that her body had recovered a lot.
Before doing it, she didn't know whether it was effective, but she was very happy when she could feel the changes in her body. There was no such thing as postpartum recovery in that era, so she had to rely on her memory to figure it out.
It seems to be effective now.
Lu Yuxiu was resting that day, and Aunt Lu happened to release Lin Xia from confinement. She had been in confinement for 45 days, and it must be said that Aunt Lu kept a close eye on her.
Although Lin Xia does not agree with lying down all the time, she does agree that the mother should sit for a longer period of time and sit well during the confinement period.
We must listen to what our ancestors said!
"Hurry up and dry your hair!" Aunt Lu became anxious when she saw Lin Xia coming out with wet hair. She had to be more careful just after the confinement period!
"Oh, I know. I'll go out and bask in the sun." Lin Xia sat in the sun. The moisture on her body was gradually taken away by the sun, and she felt lazy.
In April, it would probably still be a cold snap in the south, but it was very warm on Qiongzhou Island.
The weather is good today, and Lin Xia rubbed herself thoroughly. Her hair was too long before, and it was difficult to wash during the confinement period, so she cut it short. Now it only reaches her shoulders.
Lin Xia closed her eyes and leaned back in the chair with her head tilted back. Lu Yuxiu wiped her hair. Her fair little face glowed in the sun. She hadn't been out for almost two months, and her face had become even paler. She didn't look like she had just given birth at all.
"Let's go out for a walk?" Lu Yuxiu's hands moved gently, and Lin Xia's hair roots were gently touched. Her entire scalp felt numb and she felt so comfortable that she wanted to fall asleep.
"Ah? What did you say?" Lin Xia took a while to come back to her senses after suddenly hearing him speak.
"What about the children?" He was referring to the two little ones, Lele and Ningning. Anan was still in school at the moment.
"Aunt and Sister-in-law Guilan are here, we'll go out for a walk and come back soon." Lu Yuxiu said after thinking for a few seconds.
Lin Xia opened her eyes and met the man's deep gaze, her face couldn't help but turn hot.
It's very strange. Even though I have a child with this man, I still can't help blushing when I meet his gaze.
"Okay." Lin Xia recalled that they had not had a date since they got married, and there were always children present when they went out to play.
Now the two little ones are not grown up yet and not that clingy yet, and my aunt will be going back soon, so it is a rare opportunity to take such a long leave.
This is probably the only time I can take a break from my busy schedule. When the two little ones grow up, I won’t be able to leave their hands anymore.
Sure enough, after lunch, when they suggested going out for a walk, Aunt Lu immediately agreed: "Okay, okay, go out for a walk without worry, you can rest assured that we are at home."
Wang Guilan is here all day now and goes back home in the morning and evening. Lin Xia has agreed with her that when Aunt Lu goes back, she will be allowed to stay at home, and her salary will be doubled. Wang Guilan doesn't think it's hard and happily agreed.
After lunch, Lin Xia changed into a white dress with small floral patterns. Her hair was loose except for the hair around her ears which was braided. She looked gentle yet lively.
She was very fair, but she was still missing something. Lin Xia remembered the lipstick that Lu Yuxiu gave her. It could be said that it was her only cosmetic. Thinking of the ancient book translation that she had stopped because of having a child, Lin Xia thought that she should pick it up when she had time and not throw it away.
She also plans to make some cosmetics for herself when she has time.
Take out the lipstick and apply it on your mouth with your fingers. Since you don’t have full makeup on, you use your fingers to apply it. Without the obvious lip line, it looks more natural.
"Oh! This is so beautiful!"
