After Gu Jin broke down the door and left, Qin Xiang'e began to take out the things she had brought one by one.
Most of the items were baby diapers and clothes, along with two soft undershirts that Ye Yun wore during her postpartum period, two postpartum hats, and two pairs of cotton shoes.
Fortunately, Qin Xiang'e had prepared these in advance.
Qin Xiang'e had thought that Ye Yun would give birth after the New Year. She was worried that she wouldn't be able to manage during the New Year, so she prepared all the necessary items in October. Unexpectedly, the birth was completed before the New Year.
"It's quite a coincidence, but luckily I had prepared these things beforehand, so it doesn't seem too rushed now," Qin Xiang'e explained to Ye Yun as she took the items out.
As she spoke, she casually put the maternity hat on Ye Yun's head.
"Don't worry about wearing them. I washed them beforehand, they're clean." Qin Xiang'e explained with a smile, as if afraid Ye Yun would find them unappealing.
Ye Yun pursed her lips and said, "Thank you, Auntie."
"Hey, why are you being so polite with your aunt?" Qin Xiang'e felt embarrassed by her thanks, and her old face became even more shy.
Ye Yun smiled wryly.
My heart felt warm; it was a long-lost feeling of being cared for by my elders.
In her past life, her child and Binfen never had a chance to be born; the child turned into a pool of blood and dissolved into the mud pit where she fell.
Later, when she was in confinement at Lao Guo's house, Li Xiuying never cared about her situation. Because of the rumor that she was carrying an illegitimate child, she would beat and scold her.
In this life, she has made something of herself.
She gave birth to her child safely, and people came to care for her.
It wasn't just the children who were saved.
And her too.
Suddenly, Qin Xiang'e paused in taking something out, which puzzled Ye Yun.
At this moment, Qin Xiang'e took out two pairs of insoles from her cloth bag, pursed her lips, and handed them to Ye Yun: "Look, this is what Juanzi made for you."
Um?
Upon hearing Luo Xiujuan's name, Ye Yun couldn't help but glance outside.
She looked up at Qin Zheng.
Qin Zheng understood, walked to the door, and glanced outside discreetly.
Outside, Xiao Hai was still kneeling in the corner, head down, not saying a word, while Luo Xiujuan next to him actually knelt down with him, swaying and looking at the ward from a distance of seven or eight meters.
Qin Zheng withdrew his gaze.
“They’re still kneeling outside, and Luo Xiujuan has also knelt down,” he said, his tone slightly cold.
The person who caused Ye Yun's premature birth and put her in a dangerous situation, if he weren't afraid of angering Ye Yun, he would have wanted to deal with the person overnight.
As for Xun Xiangbin, Lao Gao has already found Zheng Song to help him search for Xun Xiangbin's whereabouts.
After the incident, Xun Xiangbin disappeared without a trace. It is estimated that he knew what he had done and was too scared to find a place to hide in the deep mountains and forests.
"Wife, what do you plan to do?"
When Qin Xiang'e said this, her voice carried a rare hint of gloom, as if she would take revenge on Xiao Hai and Luo Xiujuan in her own way if Ye Yun gave in.
Ye Yun gave a slight twitch of her lips. "Never mind that for now."
"..."
Qin Zheng was a little reluctant, but he listened to her anyway and nodded lightly: "Okay."
On the other side, Qin Xiang'e was already sitting on the edge of the bed, and she and Tian Xiaohui were happily watching Xiao Chuqi together.
The baby in the swaddling clothes was just born and was still a little wrinkled. Because she was premature, she looked thin and small, but she was so fair and tender.
"Oh dear... the Qin family has an heir."
Qin Xiang'e was increasingly delighted with the sight of the little girl, and reached out to gently touch her small hand that was raised beside her head.
Perhaps it was conditioned reflex, but when she put her fingers into the little girl's palm, the little girl clenched her fist and tightly gripped Qin Xiang'e's fingers.
Qin Xiang'e almost burst out laughing, grinning from ear to ear, "Zhengzi, look, she responded to me!"
Qin Zheng: "..."
She's so young, how could she possibly respond?
"By the way, have you informed the in-laws about this? Will they be able to come for the full moon celebration?" Qin Xiang'e continued.
After she finished speaking, she looked at Ye Yun.
Her in-laws haven't shown up since their last appearance.
Ye Yun didn't know about this either.
Her familial bond with Mu Jingsheng was rather weak. Ye Xia lacked the communication skills that a normal person possesses, and being nearly a thousand miles apart, she had basically lost contact with Mu Jingsheng, except for a few occasional letters.
Moreover, she had been in a coma since giving birth and had only just regained consciousness, so this task naturally fell to Qin Zheng.
Ye Yun looked at Qin Zheng.
Qin Xiang'e also looked at Qin Zheng.
The atmosphere in the ward suddenly became very quiet. Even Tian Xiaohui, who had been watching the little girl, sensed something was wrong and looked up at Qin Zheng with a puzzled expression.
What's even stranger is Qin Zheng's silence.
As three pairs of eyes were simultaneously fixed on him, Qin Zheng's gaze darkened slightly, and he finally looked at Ye Yun.
Ye Yun frowned slightly.
Seeing Qin Zheng's enigmatic expression, the light in her eyes dimmed slightly, and a faint look appeared as she asked, "What's wrong?"
Qin Zheng paused for two seconds, then said, "I called them, but it wasn't your father who answered..."
In her previous letters, Ye Yun gave Mu Jingsheng the landline phone numbers for the pastry shop and the garment factory.
Mu Jingsheng soon called her back.
So Ye Yun did write down Mu Jingsheng's home phone number, but she wasn't close to Mu Jingsheng and never thought of calling him first.
Who answered?
Ye Yun said calmly.
Qin Zheng swallowed and said, "It sounds like an old man."
Ye Yun raised her eyebrows slightly.
elder?
Could it be her grandmother, whom she has never met?
