"Dong Ling?" Guan Jinghua was surprised. "Why are you back?"
Considering that Xu Mei was still resting, although she was surprised, her voice was very low, just loud enough for Qin Dongling to hear.
"Come back when the situation stabilizes."
There weren't many people coming to the hospital to give birth at this time, and even fewer during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Qin Dongling's heartbeat became very fast when he thought about the news that Xu Mei had just given birth.
"Mom, what did the doctor say? Is there anything else wrong with Xiaomei?"
Seeing that her son-in-law cared about her daughter's situation, Guan Jinghua felt comfortable. Although he couldn't be with her, the relationship between the two was beyond words.
"I just fell asleep out of exhaustion, but my little girl is still in the incubator. The doctor said she wasn't breathing when she was born, but luckily she was revived."
Qin Dongling knew that Xu Mei had given birth prematurely, but he didn't know these things, and his head felt dizzy for a moment.
Their daughter almost died.
A strong sense of fear gripped him. Even on the dangerous battlefield, he had never been so scared.
But at this moment, he is the backbone of the family.
Qin Dongling tried his best to comfort Guan Jinghua and went to buy some things. When he came back, Xu Mei was still unconscious. Instead, the nurse came over and asked them to send over some things the child needed.
Qin Dongling picked up the things prepared beside him and walked over. The room was called an incubator, but it was actually a heated glass box that needed someone to watch over it at all times.
There was a child in a box inside.
Qin Dongling knew that this little guy was his and Xu Mei's baby.
Relying on his excellent eyesight, through a layer of glass and a distance of several meters, he saw his daughter gently moving her hands in the box. Her little red fists were so cute.
An indescribable feeling of emotion filled his heart, and Qin Dongling was almost mesmerized by the scene.
He was grateful in his heart. Fortunately, the little guy was fine. Otherwise, he didn't dare to think about what would happen to Xiaomei or himself.
That will be a pain that they will have to spend their entire lives to soothe.
The nurse didn't chase him away. After all, he was standing far away and it wouldn't affect anything. Qin Dongling watched silently for a while, thinking about Xu Mei in the ward, and then turned back.
Xu Mei woke up at night.
Qin Dongling had brought a kettle from home. When she woke up, she wanted to drink water, and there was hot water available.
Guan Jinghua asked her a series of questions, "Are you feeling unwell? Are you hungry? Is there anything you want to eat?"
"No."
Xu Mei felt that she had slept so soundly that she didn't even dream. She glanced in the direction of her mother, then noticed someone beside her. She turned her head and stopped immediately.
Qin Dongling squatted down, saw her tears, and hurriedly wiped them away, "Don't cry, it's all your fault. You didn't accompany you."
His fingertips, covered with calluses, rubbed Xu Mei's delicate skin, unconsciously being very light and extremely cautious.
Guan Jinghua also stood by and advised, "You just gave birth, you can't cry, otherwise you will get postpartum sickness, and later when the wind and sand blow into your eyes, you will cry."
Hearing her mother mention Yue, Xu Mei suddenly remembered something, "Where's the baby?"
When speaking, look around.
The other two were silent for a moment. After a moment, Qin Dongling said softly, "She was born a little early. The doctor said it would be better if she stayed in an incubator for a few days."
Xu Mei felt very distressed. If the two people hadn't stopped her, she would have wanted to get out of bed and go over there to take a look.
"I've seen her. She's very cute and nothing happened to her." Qin Dongling said.
Xu Mei looked at him quickly, "Really?"
Qin Dongling racked his brains to use all the words in his head to describe the child, saying that she was red and could move her fists.
Xu Mei and Guan Jinghua both listened very carefully.
The next day, she had recovered more and the two of them couldn't take care of her any longer, so they dressed her warmly and went to see her together.
But this time the nurses wanted to send them away. On the one hand, it was to let Xu Mei have more rest, and on the other hand, the three of them standing in a human wall had affected their work.
"When can our child get out of the incubator?" Xu Mei asked.
The nurse said, "About a week."
There was no milk powder at the time. When Xu Mei felt better, she would come over whenever the child cried out of hunger. She watched her hair become whiter and her eyes looked more and more like her own.
Xu Mei felt that she owed this little girl too much and didn't know how to like her, especially when she saw how she relied on her wholeheartedly, which made her feel that this little life belonged to her completely.
Qin Dongling also likes his daughter, especially since this daughter looks so much like his wife.
In short, the three of them were immersed in the joy of adding a new member to the family.
Love is the greatest tonic in the world. The child's weight was acceptable and his vital signs were stable. On the morning of his discharge from the hospital, Qin Dongling carried him to the ward.
At this moment, Xu Mei was still asleep, so Qin Dongling held the little girl carefully to prevent her from making any noise that would wake up his wife.
He is a big man, his broad arms can support a family, but he is so careful and caring while holding this floppy little baby.
The father and daughter stared at each other, neither of them making a sound, as if they were sizing each other up with curiosity.
Qin Dongling was simply struck by his daughter's round and bright eyes, and he couldn't help but get closer.
The child in her arms was originally very quiet, but as the face grew bigger and bigger, she pouted and started crying in fear.
"Don't cry, Daddy didn't mean it." Qin Dongling quickly coaxed her in a low voice.
But it was too late, Xu Mei had already woken up from her daughter's crying.
"Why are you crying suddenly?" she asked, reaching out to hug her.
In the arms of his mother, smelling the reassuring scent, the baby's crying gradually subsided.
Qin Dongling was too embarrassed to say that he was the one who scared the child to tears.
He looked at Xu Mei's tired and exhausted eyes and said, "Sleep a little longer. Mom hasn't come yet."
The hospital's conditions were limited, and if both of them stayed here to stay with the patient, neither of them would be able to rest well. So Guan Jinghua went home to rest yesterday, and Qin Dongling was left to watch over her alone.
Seeing the little girl close her eyes and her nose twitching, Xu Mei carefully placed her beside her.
Then he looked at Qin Dongling, "How dare you say that? You're injured yourself, so you should have a good rest."
Penetrating wounds are not so easy to heal. Xu Mei was too exhausted after giving birth and did not notice anything was wrong. By the time she found out, Qin Dongling's wound was almost inflamed.
Fortunately, we were in the hospital and the doctor re-applied medicine and bandaged the wound.
"None of this is more important to you." Qin Dongling leaned forward to look at his daughter. "I can never repay you for all you have done for me in my lifetime."
Xu Mei looked at him closely, tears welling up in her eyes. These words were so meaningful to her, who had lived through two lifetimes.
She raised her eyes, trying not to let the tears fall, "Perhaps, it's because you didn't pay it back in your previous life, so you're paying it back in this life."
