Chapter 334 The Beloved Darling
When Jiang Zhizhi gave birth, it alarmed half of the compound. These were just ordinary uncles, aunts, and other family members in the compound.
But when these people are standing in the hospital, it's no ordinary situation; it attracts the attention of the entire hospital leadership.
These are the family members of the leaders of the National People's Congress! They are retired senior officials who previously held high positions.
Everyone was gathered at the entrance of the delivery room. The hospital leaders were taken aback and called for chairs to be brought over so that everyone could sit down. They also quickly instructed the staff in the department to take good care of these people.
They also sent the best obstetrician in the hospital to deliver Jiang Zhizhi's baby.
After making the arrangements, the dean stood aside wiping away sweat, thinking to himself that these were all powerful figures, and he couldn't afford to offend any of them.
What's even more puzzling is that if it's just one person giving birth, why did all these people come?
Jiang Zhizhi was well taken care of throughout her pregnancy. In addition, she was in good health, exercised regularly, and had traditional Chinese medicine prescribed by Jin Huaiying. Therefore, the entire labor process was not long. Soon after the contractions ended, the two little ones came out one after the other.
The older sister came out first; the little girl weighed five pounds and looked tiny.
A few minutes later, the younger brother was born. The little guy weighed 5.6 pounds, only 6 ounces heavier than his sister, but he looked a whole size bigger.
Jiang Zhizhi remained fully conscious throughout. Even during the most painful moments, which felt like her bones were being torn apart, she was still able to endure it.
The nurse brought each child over to her so she could see if it was a boy or a girl, and then showed her that the child's arms and legs were healthy before taking them away to wipe their swaddling clothes.
The doctor used gauze to wipe the sweat from Jiang Zhizhi's forehead. Looking at Jiang Zhizhi's pale face and bloodless lips, he was quite surprised: "I saw you almost faint from the pain several times, but you didn't utter a sound."
Jiang Zhizhi felt completely weak, and her stomach suddenly deflated, which made her feel a little uncomfortable.
There was still a little bit of inexplicable grievance in my heart.
And a slight sense of loss.
After listening to the doctor's words, he smiled with his pale lips, but didn't say anything.
Knowing that Jiang Zhizhi was the darling of that group of people outside, the doctor wiped away her sweat and then whispered to comfort her, "Having two children is very taxing on the body. You must take good care of yourself during your postpartum period when you get home."
She initially thought Jiang Zhizhi was a delicate young woman, yet the fact that she could cause such a stir among so many senior leaders when she gave birth made her think that this young woman would probably cry her eyes out during childbirth.
But to everyone's surprise, he endured the whole ordeal without uttering a sound.
Large beads of sweat poured from her temples and forehead from the pain, but she gritted her teeth and didn't utter a sound.
The doctor felt a little admiration. The pain of childbirth varies from person to person, but during the most painful moments, most people can't bear it and screaming is a normal reaction.
Thinking about it, she softened her tone even more towards Jiang Zhizhi: "You are the strongest mother I have ever met. Go back and take good care of yourself after childbirth. The two children are very cute and healthy..."
...
Outside the delivery room, a nurse carried two babies out, and a crowd immediately surrounded them.
When Fang Hua saw the two children, tears welled up in her eyes again. She quickly asked, "Where is the children's mother? How is she?"
The nurse smiled as she handed the baby to Shang Shiying and Zhou Chengzhi, then said to Fang Hua, "Madam, don't worry, the mother is doing well. She'll be able to go back to her ward after resting for a while."
Fang Hua was relieved and leaned over to look at the child in Shang Shiying's arms.
The nurse then added, "This is the older sister, weighing five pounds. The one the commander is holding is the younger brother, weighing five pounds and six ounces."
The crowd became excited again: "Twins! Fang Hua, you are so lucky!"
"Twins! They're the first pair of twins in our compound. What a blessing!"
Zhou Chengzhi carefully held his younger brother, somewhat excited: "He's so soft, I don't even dare to use any force."
Someone went to teach Zhou Chengzhi how to hold the baby, but then thought that Zhou Chengzhi must be uncomfortable holding the baby, so they simply took the baby from her and held it.
In no time at all, the two newborn babies had been held by everyone in turn.
The hospital director was watching from the side, sweat beading on his forehead. He didn't dare to remind anyone that newborns shouldn't be exposed to so many people at once.
But in his heart, he sighed with pride. These two kids are so lucky to be pampered by so many big shots. They'll be able to do whatever they want wherever they go in the future.
Jiang Zhizhi was wheeled into the ward and was shocked to see a large group of people in it.
Fortunately, the VIP wards are large and have separate visitor rooms, so there's enough space for all the people to stand.
Seeing Jiang Zhizhi being pushed over, everyone consciously made way for her. Fang Hua quickly went over, helped Jiang Zhizhi lie down on the bed, and then bent down to hug her: "Zhizhi, you've worked so hard. You are truly a great contributor to our family."
Jiang Zhizhi was a little embarrassed by Fang Hua's sudden politeness: "Mom, please don't say that."
The others offered their congratulations, but Jiang Zhizhi simply smiled, with Fang Hua responding on her behalf.
Shang Shiying checked the time: "Alright, alright, the child has seen it, and Zhizhi has seen it. Let's hurry up and leave so as not to disturb Zhizhi's rest."
The group of people reluctantly left the ward and went to find the hospital director, repeatedly urging him to take good care of Jiang Zhizhi and the child.
The hospital director broke out in a cold sweat again. Even without their instructions, he had arranged for the best doctors and nurses to guard outside Jiang Zhizhi's ward, not daring to let anything happen to Jiang Zhizhi and the child.
If anything unexpected happens, his time as dean will be over.
After these people left, the dean pondered for a while and then called two more people from the security department to guard Jiang Zhizhi's ward, making sure that Jiang Zhizhi and the children were discharged from the hospital safely.
They didn't just have two children, they had two golden nuggets. If anything goes wrong, neither of them will be out of luck.
...
After Shang Shiying dismissed everyone, she returned and looked at the two little ones lying on the small bed next to the hospital bed: "There were too many people earlier, so I only have time to take a good look at them now."
"I think the little girl looks like Zhizhi, and the little boy looks like Xiye. Both children are very good-looking."
Fang Hua couldn't get enough of looking at them either, standing by the crib, smiling, but then her eyes started to sting. No matter how she looked at them, she thought the two children were beautiful.
Zhou Chengzhi couldn't stay in the ward any longer, so Fang Hua sent him back to prepare chicken soup for Jiang Zhizhi.
Shang Shiying looked after the baby for a while, then helped Jiang Zhizhi sit up: "There's brown sugar and eggs in the thermos. Drink some to replenish your strength. I heard from the doctor that you didn't utter a sound during the entire childbirth process. How are you so amazing?"
As she spoke, her eyes welled up with tears. She had given birth to five children, and each of them had been excruciatingly painful.
She was in so much pain after giving birth that she would bite and beat Li Chengzhang, vowing never to have another child. But before long, she was pregnant again.
Therefore, she felt that Jiang Zhizhi must be in pain, but since Zhou Xiye wasn't there, she didn't even have anyone to confide in.
Thinking about it this way, Shang Shiying felt even more sorry for Jiang Zhizhi and reached out to hug her: "My little darling... I'm so sorry you had to suffer."
