It's not that I'm worried about any conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, since Su Yueya and Bai Xiuhui have always gotten along very well. The problem is, with Bai Xiuhui around, can their family still move freely in and out of the space?
It's fine to have a postpartum period at home, but compared to the comfortable conditions in a private space, home seems too ordinary.
Su Yueya still preferred to have her postpartum confinement in the space, since the food, supplies, and accommodations were all the best and it was also more convenient, but this would inevitably require her to avoid Bai Xiuhui and Lu Anguo.
“In-laws, there’s no need for that!” Liu Yuying quickly came out to help her daughter out of the predicament.
“You have to work normally, how can the children feel comfortable leaving your job to take care of Yueya? Besides, there are more people here, and although we all have to work, it’s easier to coordinate our schedules, especially Lao Lu! He’s a doctor and has more free time, so he’s the most suitable person to take care of the two children!” Liu Yuying said.
“Yes, Mom, you don’t need to worry. I can take care of myself. You go ahead with your work and just come visit the kids and me occasionally,” Su Yueya said, afraid that Bai Xiuhui would insist on staying.
After all, if she refused too firmly or forcefully, she was afraid of unintentionally hurting Bai Xiuhui's feelings, since they were not biological mother and daughter.
Bai Xiuhui hesitated for a moment, and just as she was about to speak, Lu Anguo put his arm around his wife's shoulder.
“Just listen to your daughter-in-law. We’ll come over and visit whenever we have time,” Lu Anguo said.
"Alright then," Bai Xiuhui nodded in agreement.
In fact, Lu Anguo didn't want to put Su Yueya in a difficult position. After all, Lu Zhengjun was dead, and it was already good enough that they could visit their grandchildren from time to time. Did they really have to fight with others to take the children away?
They don't deserve that qualification.
Besides, it's definitely better for a child to stay with their mother from a young age.
Seeing that Bai Xiuhui had given up on taking care of her, Su Yueya secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
“Come on, in-laws, Yueya is doing well, let’s go see the children!” Liu Yuying said, pulling Bai Xiuhui to examine the two little ones again.
These two little rascals are just so adorable, they can't get enough of looking at them.
Su Yueya looked at the four elders surrounding the child, as well as her older brother and younger sister beside her, and couldn't help but look out the window.
What is Lu Zhengjun doing at this moment?
Is he alright?
How long will it take before he can come back to me?
Su Yueya felt very happy. She was grateful for everything God had given her. Her only wish was for Lu Zhengjun to return safely.
If Lu Zhengjun were in the ward right now, by her side, she couldn't imagine how perfect that would be.
Thanks to the spiritual spring, Su Yueya suffered very little during her pregnancy and delivery, and everything went very smoothly. However, just to be on the safe side, she was hospitalized for a week before being allowed to leave.
On the day she was discharged from the hospital, Lu Anguo and Bai Xiuhui came to pick her up.
"We'll hold the baby, and you can carry the things."
Bai Xiuhui and Liu Yuying each carried one child, while Lu Anguo and Qiao Hanxue worked as laborers with their two sons—they were only staying for a week and didn't have much stuff, mostly just the children's belongings.
If Bai Xiuhui and Lu Anguo hadn't come to pick them up, Su Yueya could have easily put them away in her spatial storage, and the whole family could have left without any trouble. But now they had no choice but to carry the luggage properly.
Since Lu Zhengjun's "sacrifice," Su Yueya has been living at her parents' house on the surface.
In reality, the whole family lives in that space every day.
So after Su Yueya was discharged from the hospital, everyone returned to the Qiao family.
The house is well-equipped with everything that needs to be prepared, and it looks quite presentable.
Qiao Hanxue personally cooked a delicious meal to entertain his two in-laws, and also stewed a nourishing soup for Su Yueya. The family enjoyed their meal together in harmony.
Before leaving, Bai Xiuhui solemnly handed three red envelopes to Su Yueya.
"One of these is for you, Crescent Moon. You suffered the most during childbirth, and Mom couldn't help much. Take this money, buy whatever you want, eat whatever you want, and if there's anything else you want, just tell Mom. Don't be shy."
"The other two are for Da Bao and Xiao Bao. You can keep them for them for now. Taking care of children, especially babies, is very hard work. If you need Mom's help, remember to ask, okay?"
Su Yueya didn't stand on ceremony with her mother-in-law and happily accepted the three red envelopes. She squeezed them…
Wow, it's quite thick. Looks like it's not a small bag, but a large one.
However, given the Lu family's financial situation, this amount of money wouldn't be a significant burden for the elderly couple, and it was also a token of their affection for the little one.
Su Yueya accepted it happily without any hesitation.
“Okay, then I’ll take it. Thank you, Mom and Dad! Don’t worry, I won’t stand on ceremony with you. I’ll definitely ask if I need anything. You’re the same to me. You come to see me when you miss the baby, and you come to see me when you miss me. Once I’m out of confinement, I can bring the baby to see you on my own initiative!” Su Yueya said thoughtfully.
During her postpartum confinement period, Su Yueya spent most of her time in the space.
Actually, she could handle it herself—the spiritual spring was a great help, and Su Yueya recovered very quickly. She was in excellent physical condition and you couldn't tell at all that she had just given birth.
But her family was still worried, so they arranged for someone to stay with her almost every day. The person who mainly took on this task was Qiao Hanxue, the family member who was the least busy.
He wasn't idle, but as the dean of Wenxiu Medical College, he didn't have to stay in the office all the time, and a lot of work could be arranged in advance.
As for Qiaorentang's business, it's now on the right track, so they don't need to keep an eye on it all the time, which makes them quite relaxed.
When other family members have free time, they also come to lend a hand, because taking care of two babies is indeed not an easy task.
But everyone was happy to accept it, because the two little ones changed every day. The changes were so great that even Qiao Xinruo, who initially disliked their looks, was now completely impressed.
"My little darling, our little baby is so good, let Auntie hug you." Qiao Xinruo hugged the child and wouldn't let go.
Qiao Hanxue walked past her expressionlessly, then suddenly blurted out a sentence.
"You don't mind that she's ugly?" He's holding a grudge against his little granddaughter, yet he dares to complain.
Qiao Xinruo: "..."
She regretted her words; she should have kept her mouth shut. Who would have thought that one honest remark would be talked about for so long? The old man was too vengeful.
"Dad, I wasn't being picky. How could I possibly be picky about Xiaobao? He really hadn't grown up yet back then. I was just telling the truth..." The more she explained, the lower her voice became, and she had no confidence at all.
"Stop holding him, give Xiaobao back to me," Qiao Hanxue said.
"Dad, how could you do this? How could you snatch the child away!" Qiao Xinruo said.
It's best if there are many people in the family, and each person takes care of the child for a while, so that everyone finds it incredibly novel.
