Chapter 257 Born
When Lin Xiaotong arrived at the hospital, her stomach was almost numb with pain. The doctor checked and found that it was not time for her to give birth yet.
He could only hold Gao Xiulan's arm and walk slowly, one step deep and one step shallow, and he was sweating from the pain.
After being wiped clean with a towel, the person was pushed into the delivery room.
"Okay, the family members are waiting outside."
Lying in bed, I always felt a chill under my body. I touched my stomach, and then I had no energy to think.
Waves of pain came again, and my lower body felt like it was being torn apart. I didn't dare to scream, so I had to endure it, lest I lose strength from screaming too much.
At this time, Xie Yi had just gotten off the train, squeezed through the bustling crowd, and rushed towards home.
Gao Xiulan and Xie Dajiao were waiting outside the delivery room, and they could only wait anxiously.
I looked at the clock and saw that he had been in there for two hours.
Gao Xiulan couldn't sit still anymore, so she stood up and walked back and forth. Xie Da Jiao huddled aside, not daring to breathe.
I heard footsteps and turned around to see that Haodaer had finally returned.
At this time, the door of the delivery room opened and the nurse came out holding the baby.
"Is Lin Xiaotong's parents here? The baby is born, weighing 5.8 jins."
Xie Yi, the father, didn't even get a good look at what the child looked like before he was pushed to the back by his biological parents.
The nurse patted the baby twice and felt relieved when she heard the baby crying.
"This voice is powerful. Look at the big eyes and small mouth."
Gao Xiulan was very surprised. Although it was hard to tell whether a newborn baby was beautiful or ugly, she thought the baby was really cute.
Xie Da Jiao nodded frantically, then suddenly thought of something and asked, "Is it a boy or a girl?"
The nurse couldn't help laughing. She thought the family wouldn't ask anymore.
"It's a baby girl, very healthy."
"My eldest granddaughter, okay, okay."
Gao Xiulan was even more reluctant to let go, but she still handed it to the nurse.
The nurse first waited for the family to recognize the child, then took the child away, cleaned the body with disinfectant, put on small clothes, and then took the child to the mother.
Lin Xiaotong was also pushed out, changed into the clean clothes brought by Gao Xiulan, and moved to the hospital bed.
Xie Da Jiao went to check in for hospitalization. Gao Xiulan put a red string on the child's foot with Lin Xiaotong's name written on it, and then went downstairs to get some hot water.
Xie Yi was the first to rush over, but he was afraid that the smell on his body would offend her, so he stepped back.
"Xiaotong, how are you?"
She couldn't sleep at all after giving birth. She opened her eyes and saw Xie Yi coming. She made a crying expression on her face.
"It hurts so much, I'm never going to give birth again. Bring the baby here and let me take a look."
"Okay, okay, look, it's a girl. Mom said she's pretty."
She tilted her head to look at the child and gently touched the child's hand.
It was so soft, as if it had no bones, and she didn't dare to use any force at all.
The child's face was red, his eyes were closed, and his mouth was pursed, looking like a little old man.
“It’s really small.”
Today happens to be August 1, 1977.
"Our daughter is 5.8 jins, not small anymore, do you want to sleep for a while?"
Xie Yi looked at the child and inexplicably felt an emotion in his heart: he was going to be a father.
Lin Xiaotong shook her head, looked at the wrinkled clothes of the person in front of her, and asked, "You just came back?"
"I just got off the train and rushed back home but no one was there. Aunt Big Mouth said you guys were at the hospital, so I rushed over here again."
Xie Yi touched his hair again and chuckled.
"Xiaotong, are you hungry? Mom will go back and make some food for you to eat."
Gao Xiulan came back. This ward was a four-person room, and Lin Xiaotong was the only one living there for the time being.
"I'm not hungry."
The noodles with soybean paste she had in the evening were indeed very filling, so she is not hungry now.
Xie Yi thought for a moment and suggested, "Mom, I'll stay at the hospital tonight. You and Dad should go back and rest early."
Gao Xiulan pulled the person back and said, "I'll guard it. Don't let the smell bother Xiaotong."
"Mom, how can you hold on all night? I'll go back and take a shower. Can you take over tomorrow?"
"Okay, then go back quickly."
He waved his hand and sent the man away. When Xie Yi returned to the compound, he ran into Ernengzi.
"Hey, Xie Dayi, look at how proud you are. It's different being a father."
"Brother Nengzi, I won't talk to you for now. I have something else to do."
After arriving home, I went into the bathroom and took a quick shower, changed into new clothes, and hurried out.
"You guys go back first. I'll watch over you at night. You can rest assured."
Xie Yi patted his chest so hard that Xie Da Jiao couldn't even bear to watch.
"You have to be more careful at night. Don't sleep so soundly. Keep an eye on the kids."
Before leaving, Gao Xiulan gave a few more words of advice out of concern.
The two of them looked at their daughter for a while, then felt sleepy. Lin Xiaotong closed her eyes and fell asleep with her head resting on the pillow.
Xie Yi quietly closed the door, sat on the chair and closed his eyes to rest.
In the middle of the night, she suddenly heard a humming sound.
When he opened one eye, he saw Xie Yi holding the child in his hands and coaxing him softly. His movements were not very skillful, but he pretended to be so.
When he was on the island, he even asked Dr. Chi for advice, and Xiongchuan laughed at him for several days.
"What happened to my daughter?"
"Is she hungry? Look at her mouth moving."
Xie Yi held the child and came in front of her.
New parents are still slowly figuring things out.
As soon as the child gets close to the mother, his mouth involuntarily seeks milk.
Xie Yi tilted her head slightly, and as soon as she lifted up her shirt, her daughter's little mouth came over impatiently and sucked hard.
After sucking for a long time without drinking the milk, he pouted his lips and started humming again.
She tried it with her own hands, but still no response.
Xie Yi coughed: "How about I...I do it?"
Lin Xiaotong felt a little regretful. If only Gao Xiulan was there.
I had no choice but to give up and nodded in agreement.
Xie Yi's head came over quickly, and after trying for a while, it finally worked.
I brought my daughter over and she started drinking milk in big gulps, still with her eyes closed.
At such a young age, he knows how to protect his food, drinking from one side and touching the other.
After drinking, he became completely quiet, clenching his little fists and falling asleep next to his mother.
"Our daughter is really smart. She won't make a fuss once she's drunk."
Xie Yi felt that his daughter now did not seem as naughty as he was when he was a child, but since she was still young, he could not really tell.
"Wife, what do you want to eat tomorrow morning?"
He had slept for a long time on the train during the day and now he was not sleepy at all. There was a hint of excitement in every nerve ending.
"Have you forgotten? Mom will definitely come tomorrow morning.
By the way, have you thought of a name for our daughter?"
She actually had an idea for her daughter's name in mind, and she decided on it after looking up the dictionary.
"You can name the child. My name was given by my mother."
His name was given by Gao Xiulan after looking up the dictionary, because when he was a child he loved to flap his wings and pretend that he was a flying chicken. "Yi" means a bird spreading its wings and soaring into the whirlwind.
"Let's call her Xie Cheng. Clear and bright, I hope she can live a transparent life in the future. What do you think?"
A name often represents parents' deep expectations and good wishes for their children.
"That's great. My daughter must grow up well and be a good girl who listens to her mother."
Xie Yi felt very satisfied when he saw his wife and children sleeping together on the bed.
He didn't have any particularly big ambitions in his life, he just hoped that his family would be safe and happy.
"Go to sleep."
