Wang smiled. She was happy that her daughter had given birth to two sons safely and that she had found a good son-in-law.
She quickly held the child in her arms in front of Chen Afu and said with a smile, "This is my eldest brother. My son-in-law said he is heavier and cries louder, so we call him Chu Siyu, Yu Ge'er."
Nanny Li came over with another child in her arms and said with a smile, "This is our second brother. Master said he wanted him to be more polite, so he named him Chu Siming, Ming Ge'er."
The two children seemed to smell the scent of their mother, and their closed eyes opened, looking in the direction of Chen Afu, which made Wang and others marvel.
The two children are not big, and their faces are a little red and wrinkled, but they have shiny hair, double eyelids, straight noses, and angular mouths. They purse their lips from time to time, which is very cute.
Seeing them, Chen Ahfu's heart softened and tears welled up in her eyes. After two lives, she finally became a real mother. Even if she had to suffer great pain, she was willing.
She first took Yu Ge'er who was closer, kissed his little face, and then touched his little nose. He smelled sweet and his skin was tender, so lovely.
Mingge'er seemed to feel that he was being neglected, and he pursed his lips and hummed. Chen Ahfu returned Yuge'er to Wang, and then took Mingge'er into his arms, kissed him, and touched him, and said with a smile, "Son, mother's baby!"
Jin Yanzi's voice rang in her mind, "My younger brother is also my treasure. My younger brother is also my treasure. I want to see my younger brother. Oh, I'm so anxious..."
Xia Yue came in with a bowl of chicken soup and said with a smile, "Grandma, are you hungry? Have a bowl of chicken soup first."
Chen Ahfu drank the chicken soup, ate two small buns and two poached eggs, and then fed the child. She knew that her body was special, so she insisted on feeding the child herself. She also found two wet nurses, and if her milk was not enough, she would let them feed the child.
Wang said that two wet nurses had already fed the child while she was sleeping.
In the west wing, everyone was having dinner.
A clever maid ran to report, "My Lord, my dear ...
The old man laughed loudly and asked someone to reward the sweet-mouthed girl with one or two taels of silver. The old man was so happy that he had already rewarded a lot of silver. Not only did all the servants in the General's Mansion receive two-month monthly wages, but all the servants in the Marquis' Mansion and Tang Garden in the capital also received two-month monthly wages. The servants who served Chen Ahfu in the main courtyard received three months' monthly wages each...
When Chu Lingxuan heard that Chen Afu had woken up, he stopped eating and walked towards the main room. Chu Hanyan, Dabao, Li Xuan, Chu Lingzhi and Alu all ran out after him.
Chen Shiying put down his wine glass, stood up and walked out. In order to see his grandson more, the diligent man did not go to the government office today and took a day off.
The old man laughed again and said to Chen Ming, "Let's go and see my big fat great-grandson again."
If Chen Shiying was not around, Chen Ming would naturally think that he was Ah Fu's biological father and the biological grandfather of the two children. But when Chen Shiying was around, he felt a little insecure and felt that he could not compete with him. Especially when Chen Shiying and Wang Shi cried and called "Ah Fu" under the window, he felt even worse. No matter how good he was to Ah Fu and how much he liked Ah Fu, he was not her biological father. So, when Chen Shiying hurried to see her grandson, he had to wait until the old man called him before he followed him to the upper room.
Chu Lingxuan and the three children went straight into the bedroom. A-Lu and Chu Lingzhi were too embarrassed to go in, so they just stood at the door and looked in. The great grandfather and the two grandfathers sat in the main room, waiting for someone to bring the children out to show them.
As soon as Chu Hanchu and Li Xuan entered the room, they gathered around the crib to look at their younger brother, especially Chu Hanyan, whose heart and eyes were filled with her little brother and she simply couldn't love him enough.
Chu Lingxuan and Chen Dabao were eager to talk to Chen Afu, especially Dabao, whose eyes were red all the time. He had a lot to say to his mother.
Chu Lingxuan sat on the bed and said, "Afu, you've worked hard, I..."
Before he could finish his affectionate confession, Dabao came over to block in front of him and rushed to say to Chen Afu, "Mom, your son is so sad and heartbroken to hear you crying. I wanted to stay outside with you, but they took me away. Mom, I don't want any brothers or sisters in the future. It was so hard for you to give birth to them..."
Chen Dabao kept talking in tears, and Chu Lingxuan twitched his lips when he heard it.
Chen Ahfu touched Dabao's face and smiled, "Dabao loves you, and I am very happy. However, it is like this for every mother to give birth to a child. It is joyful to nurture a new life no matter how hard it is. The hardship is temporary, but the joy is forever."
After hearing this, Dabao fell silent. It must have been painful for my own mother to give birth to me. Why did she abandon me after giving birth to me with so much hardship?
This child is too sensitive.
Seeing that he was silent, Chen Ahfu guessed what he was thinking. He smiled and said, "Go and see your brothers. You are their elder brother. You must love and protect them in the future."
Dabao came to the crib and saw his two little brothers, one with his left eye open and the other with his right eye open, so cute. He reached out and touched each of his brothers, grinning again. He understood what his mother said. For such weak and cute brothers, not to mention his mother, even he was willing to suffer for them.
The old man shouted in the hall that he wanted to take care of his grandson, and the wet nurses Jiang Mama and Lin Mama took Yu Ge'er and Ming Ge'er to the hall. The old marquis and Chen Shiying started arguing again. The old marquis said that the child looked like him, while Chen Shiying said that the child looked like him.
The two younger children finally attracted the other older children to the living room, and the bedroom became quiet again.
Chu Lingxuan reached out and touched his cheek and whispered, "Afu, the past day and night were too long and too scary... I have never been so scared before. I am afraid that if you become like..." He wanted to say like Ma, but he felt it was not good. He paused and said, "If you are gone, how can I live on."
When he spoke the last part, his voice was choked. He was really scared. Ever since Chen Ahfu started screaming, Ma's appearance would appear in front of his eyes from time to time. He was afraid that Chen Ahfu would die like Ma. He even thought that the fact that Ma, who had faded from his memory, could appear so clearly in front of him was because Ma was "coming" to "take" Ahfu away. As soon as this thought came to his mind, he became even more scared. After Chen Ahfu gave birth to a son safely, he was overjoyed, but he thought that when he had time, he must take Yan'er to the temple to burn incense for Ma and pray for her soul to be reborn.
After hearing Chu Lingxuan's words, Chen Ahfu's tears flowed out. He touched the big hand that Chu Lingxuan placed on his face and said, "Every time I think I'm dying, I can hear your screams and your sobs. I wonder, if I die, what will you do, what will the children do... I can also hear my mother and father crying, I can't bear to leave you... In this life, I have so many relatives who I can't bear to leave, it's great..."
