"So handsome! My grandson is so handsome!"
"Oh my, it melts my heart! The little one is so good!" Zhang Cuihua pressed her face against the baby's tender skin, feeling extremely satisfied.
The nurse came into the ward to tidy up the bed and brought in some basic supplies. She happened to see this scene and kindly reminded her.
"Auntie, the baby's immune system is still very weak after birth. Adults' faces have bacteria, so it's best to avoid contact with the baby like this," the nurse said. She often saw some uncles and aunts who had just become grandparents doing this, but it was wrong.
Zhang Cuihua's face immediately fell, extremely dissatisfied. It was this nurse who had supported Mo Youyou's C-section earlier, and she was holding a grudge!
"What do you mean? Are you saying I'm dirty?" Zhang Cuihua glared at the other woman as if she were her enemy. "My face is perfectly clean, where would I get germs from? I think you're a heartless and wicked nurse!"
The nurse: "..."
She felt a wave of dizziness; her good intentions had been completely wasted!
This wasn't the first time she'd encountered such unreasonable and unyielding family members. Well, if they wouldn't listen, so be it; she'd already fulfilled her duty to remind them.
After all, they are all adults. She is just a nurse. Does she think she can tie up a family member and force them to listen to her?
The nurse quickly packed her things and left the ward.
Before leaving, she reminded her, "The patient is being stitched up in the delivery room. She will be transferred to the ward once the stitching is finished."
Zhang Cuihua rolled her eyes at the person's retreating figure and started complaining again.
"See? I told you Youyou shouldn't have had the C-section. Now she's had to go through that unnecessary surgery, and she's the one suffering!" Zhang Cuihua complained, feeling misunderstood and wronged.
"Mom, the C-section is already done. When Youyou comes out, don't bring this up again, or she'll be unhappy," Liu Dekai reminded her.
In any case, Mo Youyou had just given birth.
There's really no need to bring up things that can't be changed at this time, only to upset everyone.
Zhang Cuihua was reluctant, but she knew that this was the reason.
"Okay," she said reluctantly.
Soon, the sleeping Mo Youyou was wheeled into the ward. The caregiver reminded her that the patient was exhausted and had taken medication, so she might be unconscious for a while, but would wake up soon.
"Thank you," Liu Dekai said to the other party.
While Mo Youyou was asleep, Liu Dekai rushed home and brought the pre-prepared maternity kit to the hospital. Mo Youyou would need to stay in the hospital for a few more days before she could be discharged, and the things he had prepared in advance would come in handy.
When Mo Youyou woke up, the first thing she did was look for the child.
"Where are the children?" she asked.
Perhaps because she had just woken up, her voice sounded weak and listless, but the moment she saw her child, her dull eyes instantly lit up with a bright and radiant light, and her face shone with a divine maternal glow.
It seemed as if in an instant, she had completed the transformation from a girl to a mother.
"Baby, my baby." Mo Youyou held the child, and immediately went from feeling weak and listless to full of strength.
"So beautiful, the baby is so good-looking!" Mo Youyou said happily.
“That’s right, my grandson is so well-behaved, he doesn’t cry at all!” Zhang Cuihua echoed excitedly, as if all the conflicts and disputes before the birth had never happened.
But Mo Youyou didn't think so. After hearing Zhang Cuihua's voice, she was finally able to shift her attention away from the baby and back to reality.
She coldly raised her head, looking at Zhang Cuihua with hatred in her eyes.
"Why didn't you let me have a C-section just now? Did you want me to die in the delivery room? You and your son are so vicious, did you want to kill the mother and keep the child?!" Mo Youyou questioned.
At that time, she was in so much pain.
It was only through her survival instinct and love for her child that she managed to hold on until the end. She felt that if she had delayed any longer, she might have died. No wonder this mother and son were so wicked!
Given her situation, even if she insists on a natural birth, she'll still have to have a C-section if she can't deliver naturally.
Wouldn't all the pain we went through before be for nothing?
"Youyou, don't talk about dying! I didn't mean it that way! I'm really doing this for the child's good! It's so unlucky, spit it out!" Zhang Cuihua muttered.
"I'm telling you, I won't let this go! I'll tell my parents when they come!" Mo Youyou said.
Does she really think no one will stand up for her?
If it hadn't happened so suddenly and her parents hadn't had time to get there, how could they have let this mother and child treat her life so carelessly outside the delivery room?
"Youyou, please stop! Mother and child are safe now, aren't they? Saying these things will only sow discord between me and my in-laws," Zhang Cuihua quickly stopped her, afraid that her in-laws might misunderstand her and affect their opinion of Liu Dekai.
"Heh..." Mo Youyou sneered, too lazy to respond to Zhang Cuihua's words. She was determined to complain!
Now you know fear?
How dare you do this when you didn't value her life before?
The suddenness of the incident immediately brought to Mo Youyou's mind the root cause of the accident.
The reason she wanted to hit Liu Dekai was because Liu Dekai had violated male virtues and spread those nasty rumors about Su Yueya!
The so-called "settling scores after the harvest" has arrived!
"Liu Dekai, don't think that the argument at home is over. If you don't explain yourself clearly today, I'm not done with you! What shameful things did you and Su Yueya do?!" Mo Youyou questioned.
She risked her life to give birth to Liu Dekai's child, and he, on the other hand, went to the medical department every day to meet with that bitch Su Yueya.
Those two scoundrels completely disregarded her!
Mo Youyou couldn't stand this!
Moreover, with a child by her side now, Mo Youyou is full of confidence and must get to the bottom of this matter, otherwise where will she put her face in the future?
"What makes you so sure I'm having an affair with Su Yueya?" Liu Dekai was already feeling uneasy, and now that Mo Youyou had brought up the old story again, his tone was naturally not much better.
"Everyone's spreading these rumors, how could they be false?!" Mo Youyou questioned.
Sister Luo had brought the question to her face, but Liu Dekai had no idea how humiliated and ashamed she felt at the time.
Imagine if she were to get involved with another man, and gossip reached Liu Dekai's ears; he would then understand how that would feel.
Someone as concerned about her reputation as Mo Youyou couldn't tolerate this!
"If you had a clear conscience, would these rumors have spread? Liu Dekai, do you have a heart? I risked my life to give birth to your child, and you messed around with Su Yueya, letting others laugh at me. Do you really think I'm easy to bully?!" Mo Youyou shouted, her voice growing louder and louder, purely out of anger.
"I have a clear conscience! People can say whatever they want, but they insist on gossiping. Am I going to pull their tongues out? How long are you going to keep making trouble like this?" Liu Dekai was also indignant.
