The group finally breathed a sigh of relief and hurried inside to check.
Wen Gong wrapped the child up tightly and handed him to Su Qinghe.
"Congratulations, Patriarch Su, on the birth of your precious daughter!"
Su Qinghe glanced at him briefly, then rushed to Ji Yuan's bedside. "Thank you for giving me a daughter! Are you still in pain?"
She held Ji Yuan's hand tightly, looking at him with tender eyes. Seeing that his lips were a little dry, she quickly asked someone to pour him a cup of hot water.
Ji Yuan forced a weak smile and took a small sip of the water Su Qinghe offered to his lips.
"There's one more thing, but I feel completely refreshed after giving birth. It's a husband's duty to continue the family line for his wife, so there's no hardship involved. By the way, how's Xiaoxi doing?"
Su Qinghe gently patted his hand and brought the child to his side for him to see.
"Xiao Xi also gave birth to a baby girl, and she's asleep. I haven't had a chance to talk to her yet, but everything is fine, so you don't need to worry."
Hearing that everything was normal on Lin Xi's end, Ji Yuan nodded in relief before looking up at the two people standing in front of the bed.
"Did you all wait all night? I'm fine now, go back and get some rest!"
Ji Qingyu and Qin Ange both nodded, each holding Ji Yuan's child for a while, then said goodbye to Su Qinghe and left together.
Ji Yuan then looked at Su Qinghe, who was touching the child, and spoke weakly.
"My lady, you've been up all night too, go back and get some sleep! I want to take a nap too."
Knowing that Ji Yuan needed rest most right now, Su Qinghe didn't stay long and got up to go to Chunshui Pavilion again.
Lin Xi will definitely want to see her when he wakes up. She won't bother to go there then, since the bed in the room is big, she might as well rest with him.
After dismissing Hongluo, who was tending to her in the inner room, Su Qinghe gently undressed and got into bed.
The child was on the innermost side, Lin Xi was in the middle, and Su Qinghe was on the outer side. The bed was neither too big nor too small, just right.
Su Qinghe lay down next to Lin Xi, and smelled a faint milky fragrance.
Only when they got closer did they realize that the odor was coming from Lin Xi's chest, indicating that she had breastfed before she arrived.
So, when Lin Xi woke up, she still couldn't see herself.
Su Qinghe felt a little guilty. She lovingly touched Lin Xi's cheek, gently pulled him closer to her, and then closed her eyes.
...
Su Qinghe woke up for the second time to the sound of her child crying, and Lin Xi also woke up at the same time.
"Master Wife?"
Lin Xi opened her eyes and saw Su Qinghe sitting up. She called out to her with joy, but her attention was immediately drawn to the baby's crying.
Ignoring Su Qinghe, he quickly turned over to hug the child.
"I'll do it."
Seeing that he was struggling, Su Qinghe scooped the child into her arms with her long arm.
Lin Xi's face was full of affection as she reached out and took the milk. "The baby must be hungry and wants to nurse."
As he was about to take the next step, he suddenly stopped.
Lin Xi looked up at Su Qinghe, a blush rising to her cheeks. "My lady, could you... perhaps turn around?"
Seeing his shyness, Su Qinghe smiled and didn't make things difficult for him this time. She obediently turned her head away.
Lin Xi breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this and quickly unbuttoned her nightgown to breastfeed the child.
He only looked up at Su Qinghe again when the baby was quietly nursing.
"My lady, I woke up in the middle of the night and heard from Hongluo that Brother Yuan had a miscarriage and gave birth last night. Is he alright now?"
He looked worried, after all, Ji Yuan had moved up the date because of him.
Sensing the worry in his voice, Su Qinghe turned around, grabbed his hand, and gently comforted him.
“Ah Yuan is fine, father and daughter are safe. I just came from his place not long ago, so you don’t need to worry.”
Upon hearing this, Lin Xi beamed with joy. "Congratulations, my lady, on the arrival of another daughter!"
He was genuinely happy for Su Qinghe, and of course, he was also happy for Ji Yuan.
Although Su Qinghe said she would love the baby whether it was a boy or a girl, women are the foundation of a family. Now that she has given him two daughters, the weight that had been hanging over his heart for so long has finally been lifted.
Then there's Ji Yuan. People say that a father's status rises with his daughter's, so naturally every man in the world wants to have a daughter.
He had always felt that Ji Yuan was more suitable to be the rightful husband, and now that Ji Yuan's first child was a daughter, just like his, he felt a little better.
Lin Xi gently swayed her arm. The newborn baby couldn't eat much at once, and was full after only a few sips. Now it was getting ready to fall asleep.
He rocked the child for a while until the child was completely asleep before putting him aside.
Turning around and seeing that Su Qinghe was still facing outwards from the bed, Lin Xi quickly straightened her clothes before asking her to turn around.
"Wife, do you want to sleep a little longer? It's still early, and we don't have anything else to do."
Su Qinghe smiled and nodded, then pulled Lin Xi to lie down again.
The man who had just breastfed had an even stronger milky smell, which Su Qinghe could smell almost every moment.
Rubbing her nose, Su Qinghe forced herself to fall asleep. Lin Xi had just given birth, so it was best not to tease her.
The two slept until noon, mainly because they were too hungry; otherwise, they probably could have stayed in bed a little longer.
Since the new mother couldn't be exposed to drafts, she instructed Hongluo to bring in lunch. Su Qinghe and Lin Xi finished their lunch inside the room.
Because Ji Qingyu and Qin Ange were still catching up on sleep, only Ling Feng arrived during this time.
"Is the lord feeling better?" he asked with concern.
The three of them sat and chatted for a while before Lin Xi sent Su Qinghe to see Ji Yuan.
Unfortunately, she arrived at an inopportune time; Ji Yuan had just finished lunch and had fallen asleep again.
Su Qinghe reluctantly left Qushui Pavilion. She had already slept all morning and couldn't sleep any more in the afternoon, otherwise she wouldn't be able to sleep at night.
When she finally finished her work, Zhang Fucai told her that the two stewards were about to leave.
Su Qinghe was in a great mood and, as promised, gave the two of them a lot of benefits, and promised to invite them again in the future.
The two were overjoyed and nodded in agreement.
After seeing the two off, Su Qinghe went to the kitchen herself, wrote a list and asked someone to buy some medicinal herbs, and instructed them to prepare a medicinal meal.
Giving birth is a major undertaking and can be quite taxing on the pregnant woman. That's why we talk about postpartum care – it's about replenishing the lost energy and blood as soon as possible after giving birth.
Having mastered pharmacology, Su Qinghe naturally found these tasks easy to do.
With her around, her men never experience any aftereffects after giving birth.
After watching all the medicinal herbs go into the pot and giving instructions on the cooking time, Su Qinghe leisurely went out.
She's in a good mood today, so she's going to spend some money!
Su Qinghe strolled leisurely into Shili Xiang, explained her purpose to Wang Lin, and then enthusiastically browsed through all the shops, big and small, in the central area, buying quite a few things to take back.
Most of these were things that men and babies liked; she used very few of them herself.
