At this moment, her consciousness was somewhat scattered, and she thought that she must really want to see him.
She had no strength left in her body. She glanced at the baby in the midwife's arms and then closed her eyes tightly.
Let her sleep for a while, just a little while.
Let's take a good look at the child after she wakes up.
Giving birth is truly exhausting.
Besides, she had spent most of the day shopping and was exhausted.
Outside the door, Qiu Dafu listened to the wailing cries and smiled with relief.
"Second Brother!"
"Second Uncle!"
The voices of Qiu Yumei, Qiu Dazhi, and Qiu Ling'er rang out simultaneously.
They were overjoyed that Qiu Dafu had returned in time.
They were also delighted by the birth of their baby.
They all looked into the room at the same time and heard Cao's excited voice:
"It's a boy! It's a boy!"
"That's wonderful! Second Brother has an heir!" Qiu Yumei was overjoyed; she was now an aunt again.
She was even happier than if she had given birth herself.
She pushed open the door and carefully entered the room.
The midwife was wiping the baby's body when she stepped forward to help clean up the bloodstains.
Inside the hall, Qiu Ling'er and Cui Zhu peered into the main room, eager to see what the newborn baby looked like.
Immediately afterwards, Cao brought out a basin of dirty water.
The two watched in horror and heartache.
Qiu Ling'er laughed until tears streamed down her face, then turned to look at her second uncle.
Before he could speak, he saw Fourth Uncle say to Second Uncle:
"Second Brother, you're finally back." Qiu Dazhi's face showed a relieved smile.
"Thank you for your trouble." Qiu Dafu was in a daze for a moment, then pushed open the door and entered the room again.
"Liu'er!"
He lay down by Jiang Liu's bedside and realized that she had fallen asleep from exhaustion.
The midwife opened her mouth, as if to say something more, but saw Qiu Yumei shake her head at her.
The midwife knew that the lady's husband had returned, so she said no more.
She handed the child, wrapped like a rice dumpling, to Qiu Yumei and then went out of the house.
With the baby safely delivered, there was nothing more for her to do here, so she decided to go outside and get some fresh air.
Qiu Yumei, holding the child, walked towards Jiang Liu.
Seeing that she was already fast asleep, I thought to myself, giving birth is really too difficult.
She whispered, "Let the baby have some milk first."
"Liu'er is asleep." Qiu Dafu shook his head, took the swaddled baby from Qiu Yumei's hands, and smiled again.
The child was so small that Qiu Dafu held him in his arms as if he weighed a ton, afraid of hurting him.
Suddenly, the child, who had been calm for a moment, started crying again.
He was immediately flustered and quickly handed the child to his sister.
"Yu Mei, come quickly and see if he's feeling unwell anywhere."
Qiu Yumei smiled and took it, examining it carefully: "Newborn babies are all like this, perhaps they are hungry, Second Brother, don't worry."
"Hmm." Qiu Dafu hummed softly twice, took another careful look at his son, leaned over Jiang Liu's bedside, and fell asleep instantly.
He was exhausted from running all the way.
Inside the room, Qiu Yumei held her wailing child, then looked at her second brother and sister-in-law's sleeping faces.
One can't help but wonder, is this child even their biological child?
She had no choice but to take the baby, get into bed, lift Jiang Liu's collar, and start breastfeeding.
Seeing Qiu Ling'er and Cuizhu enter one after the other, she shook her head at them.
Then, she took the child and went to another room.
Fortunately, the Qiu family's house consists of suites, so the children won't get cold.
Next door, Jiang Liu had already prepared her own room for the child.
Inside, it was full of children's things.
Qiu Yumei placed the child in the cradle, while Qiu Ling'er and Cuizhu lay on either side, unable to get enough of looking at the baby.
