In the afternoon, Fang Xi came to see Jiang Cheng with Tiger Baby in her arms. Fang Xi looked at Doudou in the cradle, shook it carefully, and then tossed the Tiger Baby in her hands.
Jiang Cheng raised his head slightly and lay there watching Fang Xi's movements.
"The little boy you gave birth to is so handsome! He combines the best features of you and Song Tingzhi." Fang Xi praised the sleeping baby.
"Really?" Jiang Cheng asked with a smile.
Fang Xi nodded, and at this time Xu Sanniang came in again to feed the baby!
A newborn baby needs to drink some milk every hour. Xu Sanniang asked Song Tingzhi to buy some milk-producing things for the ewe to eat, so that Doudou would not drink so much that she would not have any milk left in the end.
While feeding Doudou, Xu Sanniang talked to Fang Xi, "You've raised this child really well!"
Xu Sanniang looked at the tiger boy in Fang Xi's arms and praised him.
At this moment, Hu Wa opened his eyes, and his big eyes blinked at Xu Sanniang. Xu Sanniang felt her heart was about to melt.
"Look at these big eyes!" Xu Sanniang said with a smile.
Song Tingzhi pushed the door open and came in, holding the nourishing soup that Xu Sanniang had made for Jiang Cheng. Song Tingzhi first put the soup on the table to cool for a while, and then carefully fed it to Jiang Cheng.
Only after Jiang Cheng had almost finished drinking did Song Tingzhi slowly let him back.
On Xu Sanniang's side, Doudou had finished drinking his milk, and both the big and the small were a little sleepy, so Xu Sanniang and the others didn't stay inside.
Fang Xi also took the child home and waited for Jiang Cheng to feel better before coming to see him in a couple of days.
During these two days, Jiang Cheng did nothing but eat and sleep, and looked at Doudou from time to time. The days passed one by one.
Jiang Cheng seemed to want to make up for the sleep she missed when she was pregnant with Doudou, so she slept every day.
Song Tingzhi was a little worried at first whether Jiang Cheng's behavior was abnormal, but Xu Sanniang said that he had lost too much weight in his body before, and even if he made up for it and got pregnant again, his body would return to the same state. Xu Sanniang said that this was normal, and Song Tingzhi was relieved!
Jiang Cheng lay in bed for three days before Xu Sanniang allowed him to get out of bed and walk around the house. As for going outside, Xu Sanniang would not let him go out during the entire confinement period.
But fortunately, Song Qian and the others were here to accompany Jiang Cheng, and Fang Xi also came to talk to Jiang Cheng from time to time.
Jiang Cheng felt quite comfortable during her confinement period, and her whole body exuded a different charm.
In Xinghua Village, Xu Sanniang had already asked someone to tell Song Bo's family that Jiang Cheng had given birth to a boy.
Song Bo was very happy to know that there was a new addition to the family. He wrote in the letter that he would send a big gift to congratulate Doudou when he was one month old.
Aunt Wang found out, and soon everyone in the village knew about it.
Many people initially thought that Xu Sanniang looked at Jiang Cheng cautiously because he was pregnant with a boy, but she ended up giving birth to a boy.
Some families who favored sons were secretly talking about Xu Sanniang being stupid for not even wanting a little boy.
She also said Jiang Cheng was unlucky, that despite his mother-in-law's pampering, he only gave birth to a useless son!
But these were just what they talked about behind the scenes. When they appeared in front of Aunt Wang, they didn't say a word. Instead, they kept congratulating the Song family on the addition of the member.
The news spread quickly, and Chen Mei also knew that Jiang Cheng had given birth to a little boy. After hearing the news, Chen Mei did not say a word and returned to her yard dejectedly.
She thought of Jiang Caiyun, who had often stayed in her room since Liu Fan broke off their engagement last year. She looked at the closed door and sighed.
If I hadn't been so greedy at the beginning, Caiyun might be living a good life now.
She knew how good the Song family had become since Jiang Cheng got married, so it was useless for her to regret it now.
At this time, there was a knock on the door.
Chen Mei went over and saw that it was Zhang the hunter from the village. He was in his twenties and still hadn't married. Because he had a scar on his face, many girls were afraid of him.
Apart from this aspect, Hunter Zhang has no flaws at all. Although his parents died early, the girl can live comfortably with her husband.
Since the end of last year, he has come to her house from time to time to bring her some game. Chen Mei knew what Zhang the hunter was thinking, but Jiang Caiyun refused to give in.
Chen Mei had no other options.
"Aunt, this is a pheasant I caught in the mountains. I brought one to you. You can cook it when you have time!" Hunter Zhang was a little shy. He handed the pheasant to Chen Mei and turned away.
"Hey! You!" Chen Mei looked at the pheasant in her hand. She couldn't call him, so she could only close the door and go into the house.
Chen Mei put the pheasant in the woodshed, then went into the house and knocked on Jiang Caiyun's door.
There was no sound in the room, but Chen Mei knew Jiang Caiyun was in the room, so she started talking to herself at the door.
"Caiyuncheng, I heard Jiang Cheng gave birth to a boy. How could mother be so blind not to see that Song Tingzhi was such a good match? She missed out on such a good marriage!"
As Shen Mei was talking, she saw that there was no movement inside and changed the subject.
"That hunter is here to deliver something again today. I think this kid is fine except for the scar on his face. He has been following us for so long. Why don't you take a look..." Before Shen Mei finished her words, the door was opened from the inside.
"Mom, I will marry him!" It would have been fine if Jiang Caiyun didn't say anything, but as soon as she spoke, Chen Mei was shocked.
"No, child! Mom doesn't mean to force you!" Chen Mei waved her hands hurriedly. Jiang Caiyun is already 18 years old this year. Although Chen Mei is anxious, she doesn't dare to force her now.
"Mom, I've figured it out. I have to live my own life. Instead of marrying someone who wants me to please him in every way, it's better to marry someone who loves me." Jiang Caiyun said expressionlessly.
"But, my dear, then all your efforts to marry into a wealthy family will be in vain!!" Chen Mei felt so sorry for her that tears started to flow as she spoke.
"Mom, don't worry! I believe I can live my own life!" Jiang Caiyun stepped forward, hugged Chen Mei, patted her back and comforted her.
Seeing that her daughter had made up her mind, Chen Mei stopped trying to persuade her. Fortunately, she was getting married not far away in the village, so she could take care of her daughter if anything happened.
Since Jiang Caiyun has agreed, Shen Mei will do the rest of the work for her.
Chen Mei told Zhang the hunter the news that Jiang Caiyun had agreed. He was very happy after hearing it. Chen Mei told him that all the necessary procedures for marriage must be followed, otherwise she would not marry Jiang Caiyun to him.
After hearing this, Hunter Zhang nodded quickly and kept saying that this was what he should do.
After receiving a satisfactory answer, Shen Mei left contentedly.
She went back and told Jiang Caiyun to just wait for her marriage without worry.
After that, the matchmaker came to propose marriage, exchanged horoscopes, and set the wedding date, which was exactly one month later.
Chen Mei thought it was a good day and agreed.
Jiang Caiyun watched the people coming and going in her house without saying a word. She turned around and stayed in her room without going out.
Even Zhang the Hunter didn't see her when he came to the house several times. Chen Mei saw Jiang Caiyun saying soft words beside her like this.
Hunter Zhang was not angry. He sympathized with Jiang Caiyun's shyness as a girl and said he would come back on the day of the wedding.
