Chapter 196
When the baby was six months old, Jiang Zhinian returned to school after her maternity leave expired and handed Yoyo to her father. At first, she didn't want to wean the baby. The painful and pleasurable intimacy really made her fascinated. In the last few days, she even started to look at the things needed for pumping milk, but Shi Ye still persuaded her to wean the baby.
At first, Jiang Zhinian was worried that Youyou would not be able to get used to the pacifier, but the child, who had long been addicted to pacifiers, had no resistance to the pacifier at all and ate happily, which made Jiang Zhinian feel lost and depressed for a few days.
As soon as the first day at work ended, Jiang Zhinian couldn't wait to rush back home. She thought that after the nanny left, Shi Ye would be alone taking care of the baby and there would be chaos. However, when she opened the door, she saw Youyou lying quietly in the baby fence playing with toys, and Shi Ye watching her and reading a book.
For a moment, there was a sense of peace and tranquility in it.
Jiang Zhinian was stunned for a moment, but finally reacted from the aggrieved cry of little Yoyo. He washed his hands, changed his clothes, picked up the baby, and held him in his arms affectionately, comforting him repeatedly.
"Don't cry, baby, mommy is back..."
Yoyo pursed his lips, with tears in his eyes, and kept making "oh, oh" sounds. I don't know whether he was expressing his longing for his mother or complaining about his father.
Shi Ye stood up calmly and put the book in his hand aside: "I'm going to cook. Yoyo will be fed in half an hour."
Jiang Zhinian waited until Shi Ye entered the kitchen before he sat down on the sofa with the little baby in his arms. While playing with her, he asked her, "Have you been good at home with Daddy today? Do you miss Mommy, huh?"
Yoyo, with tears in her eyes, lay on Jiang Zhinian, who had changed into home clothes, sobbing as if she had endless grievances.
When Yoyo fell into a deep sleep that night, Jiang Zhinian walked over to the sofa, hugged Shi Ye's arm and asked him, "How was your day today? Did Yoyo bother you?"
"No, she's very well behaved."
Although he took a half-year break from school, Shi Ye did not fall behind in his daily studies, which is very inspiring.
Jiang Zhinian didn't believe it: "Is it true?"
Why was there such a chaos when she was taking care of the baby? There was a nanny to help at that time, and they were both exhausted. She still remembered that when the baby was more than three months old, the nanny fell asleep on the sofa while holding Youyou in her arms because of exhaustion.
Shi Ye tilted his head to look at her and said with a smile, "Am I not taking good care of you?"
Jiang Zhinian felt guilty, but that was not the case. She even went to check Yoyo's little butt, which was dry and clean, and not at all soaked to cause a red butt. It can be seen that Shi Ye took good care of it.
"I just made a daily parenting schedule based on Youyou's daily habits, and then strictly followed the corresponding schedule."
What time to sunbathe, what time to do massage, what time to go out for a walk, and what time to come back for milk, all are arranged very closely and scientifically.
Jiang Zhinian took Shi Ye's phone and took a look at it, and couldn't help but think... She was really raising a child like a special forces soldier, not giving the child any time to act up. No wonder she came back today, looking aggrieved.
She silently gave Shi Ye a thumbs up, indicating that he should keep it up.
Shi Ye raised his eyebrows: "I don't think your expression means that."
Jiang Zhinian touched his face and said, "No, that's what I meant. Really, very sincerely."
Shi Ye pinched her cheek: "Why haven't you gained weight yet?"
Breastfeeding is hard and it is easy to lose weight. After weaning, Shi Ye began to plan how to make up for Jiang Zhinian's loss.
Because the pinch was not strong enough, Jiang Zhinian broke free with a slight movement and fell on Shi Ye's shoulder: "Wouldn't it be better to be thinner?"
Shi Ye shook his head: "Being too thin is unhealthy."
Jiang Zhinian didn't gain much weight during her pregnancy because she controlled her diet well. After the baby was born, her weight quickly returned to its pre-pregnancy level.
By the time I had been taking care of the baby for six months, I was ten pounds lighter than before giving birth. I felt so light that I seemed like I could be blown down by a gust of wind.
Jiang Zhinian lowered her head to touch the flesh on her belly. Her face was a little thin, but her belly was not. Look, it was layered with fat, and there was an ugly scar on it.
Because it was a caesarean section, the two did not resume their married life until Yoyo was 100 days old. At first, she minded a little bit and repeatedly asked Shi Ye to turn off the lights when lying on the bed. Later, Shi Ye lay on her, kissed her belly, and told her that the scar was her medal of bravery. She slowly felt relieved.
"Okay, then I'll try to gain some weight."
The tone in which she said this was filled with the fearlessness and intimacy of being favored. Shi Ye listened for a while, and after making sure that Youyou would not wake up for a while, he took Jiang Zhinian into his arms.
"What are you doing..."
…
When Youyou was eight months old, the family welcomed its first small car for transportation. It was not a luxury car, but Jiang Zhinian was excited for several days.
With a car, they can take Youyou to places farther away for outings or trips, because children have to carry a lot of things every time they go out, and taking a taxi is very inconvenient. As Youyou grows up, the original baby safety basket is gradually no longer suitable, and a safety seat is needed.
A family car can better protect children's travel safety.
On the day of picking up the car, Jiang Zhinian deliberately wore a red dress for the sake of festivity and good omen. As soon as she entered the hall, she amazed a group of people who were looking at cars in the 4S store. They all speculated whether she was a hired car model.
Beautiful hair, nice car and beautiful woman.
It wasn't until Shi Ye appeared from behind holding Youyou that everyone was shocked again. How could a beauty of this level ride in a car of this level? What a pity.
Jiang Zhinian had learned not to care about other people's eyes. She followed Shi Ye to the parking lot to pick up the car, take pictures, and happily drove the car back home.
Because they both live very close to their workplace, they usually park their car in the hospital parking lot and have applied for a monthly insurance discount. Only on weekends do the family drive out for fun.
At night, Jiang Zhinian picked up Yoyo, who was already crawling very fast, and sent her to take a bath and go to bed. Shi Ye made a glass of lemon water and went to the balcony to wait for Jiang Zhinian.
It is said that we can see the supermoon that occurs once in a thousand years tonight. The two of them sat on the chairs on the balcony wrapped in a blanket. Jiang Zhinian curled up in Shi Ye's arms, looking at the sky quietly.
"When I read the poem 'People today cannot see the moon of the past, but this moon once shone on the ancients,' I didn't feel much. But today, looking at the moon, I suddenly felt... very appropriate."
"Why are you suddenly sad?"
"Because... I'm so happy." I have you, Yoyo, and a complete, ordinary little family. I live the most ordinary life in the world and feel very happy.
Because she doesn't want much, she won't be tortured by desires that can never be filled. A little satisfaction in life can bring her simple happiness.
