Chapter 214 Confinement
Jinran recovered very well and returned to the Gu family home after only a few days in the hospital. Wang Cuifen also moved in with them, leaving the business to Dazhuang and the others.
Jinran advised, "Mother, why don't you go back? I have enough people here, and besides, there's Aunt Liu. Can you manage without her?"
Wang Cuifen said nonchalantly, "Who can't live without whom? At worst, I'll just have to forgo making money for the next few days. I'll take care of you during your postpartum period. If you have any problems, you can tell me. You can't expect your mother-in-law to do anything, you silly child."
Jinran was so moved she wanted to cry.
But Wang Cuifen immediately scolded her. "Let me tell you, Shen Jinran, if you dare to spill your cat pee, see if I don't scold you."
Jinran said, "................." "Stop crying, stop crying, okay?"
Afraid of disturbing Jinran's rest, the child was arranged to stay next door, with several adults taking turns to watch over him. Even Professor Gu's participation in the activity was denied, on the grounds that he was unreliable.
Then Professor Gu was clearly displeased. Gu Siyan mocked, "It's true what they say, no one escapes the wrath of heaven. My daughter and son have been born for so many days, but they still don't have names."
Professor Gu said, "I should have gone outside to pick up a child. My own children are too infuriating, and it's the eldest's fault."
Father Gu: "???"
The noisy days passed by very quickly. Jinran turned one month old, and the two children grew up to be very promising.
They are fair-skinned and chubby, and they all inherited the best features of their parents. The son looks more like Gu Siyan, and the daughter looks more like Jinran.
Occasionally, a little story will emerge, captivating everyone. Now, the Gu family is incredibly lively every day. If Grandma and Grandpa Shen don't see their child for a few days, they miss him terribly.
However, Professor Gu's name was still not chosen well, and Grandma Gu disliked it quite a bit.
"If you can't do it, I'll do it. It's been a month, I've flipped through the dictionary so many times, and I still haven't figured it out."
Professor Gu retorted, "Isn't this just me being cautious? You all don't understand."
The whole family grimaced. Gu Siyan was the worst offender.
Professor Gu only decided on the names when he was about to hold a full-moon celebration: the older brother would be named Gu Jinzhi, and the younger sister would be named Gu Xiruo.
Jinran felt it had a bit of a Mary Sue vibe, but it still sounded nice.
Gu Siyan also thought it was alright, but still complained to Jinran in a low voice: "We haven't been given nicknames yet. Let's get a dog in the future, then we can decide for ourselves."
Jinran: "!!!" Look at you, you've become so arrogant!
Grandma Shen gave the baby his nickname, which means "auspicious and wishful thinking." She said it was because it was a joyous and auspicious name.
Jinran thought it sounded like a eunuch's name, but it wasn't her own name, so it was fine.
Twins "..........." Is this really their biological mother?
Many people came to the full moon celebration. Jinran recovered very well, just like before she gave birth, except that she looked more like a mature woman.
Perhaps because Jinran occasionally gives the two children some seawater to drink, they are now very attached to her. They don't pay attention to anyone else when they see Jinran, which annoys Gu Siyan. Therefore, they only showed up briefly at the beginning before returning to their room.
Gu Siyan is now considered a successful person. The country's atmosphere is becoming more and more open, and it is also vigorously supporting emerging industries. Gu Siyan is standing at the forefront of this trend, and it would be difficult for him not to take off.
So, besides his own relatives, many of the people who came to the full moon celebration were there to curry favor with Gu Siyan. Others were there because of Gu's father, older brothers, and second older brothers. In short, their motives were impure.
Jinran dealt with it for a while, then grew a little annoyed. She made an excuse to watch the child and managed to escape. Back in her room, she saw Grandma Gu enjoying some peace and quiet while watching the child.
Grandma Gu said sarcastically, "How is it? Being the boss's wife isn't easy, is it?"
Jinran nodded, and said with a sigh, "It's true what they say, even the richest man in the mountains has distant relatives. How realistic!"
Grandma Shen coaxed the two children to sleep and sighed, "That's how it is. Just look at the wine at this banquet. He toasts the rich people first with every cup."
Jinran rested in her room for a while before going out. If she disappeared for too long, people would gossip.
Finally, they managed to get rid of everyone. Some gifts were too expensive, so the Gu family politely declined them. Others were small gifts with deep meaning; it depended on the person's character, and the Gu family accepted them if they were good.
Anyway, I won't leave a message for anyone.
In the evening, after feeding her child, Jinran quickly washed up and decided to go back to sleep; she was exhausted from the day.
Little did she know, there was another male demon waiting in bed, smiling wickedly, waiting to be favored.
Seeing this, she was no longer sleepy; she still had the energy to eat meat to her heart's content!
