Chapter 8 Awesome
"You have to hold me tight and don't let go."
It was clearly an insignificant remark, but Gu Xiyue's eyes suddenly darkened.
He pursed his lips calmly, and walked out holding Zhou Nuan, who was clinging to him tightly, feeling insecure like a koala clinging to a tree.
There was a wheelchair ready outside the delivery room, specially prepared for pregnant women. When Zhou Nuan saw it, she struggled hard.
"Put me down."
Gu Xiyue did not insist. He just gently placed her on the wheelchair, wrapped her tightly with the quilt beside her, and then pushed her out of the delivery room.
Qin Yuezhi had been looking forward to it for a long time, and when she saw them come out, her eyes suddenly lit up.
"Xiao Nuan, are you okay? Does it hurt?"
She touched Zhou Nuan's messy hair with some heartache.
Zhou Nuan almost couldn't hold back her tears when she saw her caring eyes. The grievance that had just subsided surged into her heart again. Thinking of the head nurse's half-threatening words, she blinked and finally forced back the tears.
"It hurts..." Even killing a pig isn't that painful, but it's very strange. She was in excruciating pain the moment before, but now she can't remember how painful it was at all. She just knows it hurts a lot.
"Giving birth is always painful, you are just being pretentious."
A cold snort came from his ear, Zhou Nuan's face turned cold, and he looked in the direction of the voice.
All four members of the Zhou family were there, including the honest father Zhou Dagui, the unhappy He Rongsheng, Zhou Chang who was so fat that his eyes were as thin as a line, and Zhou Bing who had an unpredictable expression. The whole family was together.
"If it were you, wouldn't you have just given birth at home with a midwife? Why go to a hospital? Hospitals are all scams. Luckily, you didn't get stabbed in the stomach. If you had been stabbed like you said, you wouldn't have had anywhere to cry. It's so ugly and it's a waste of money."
He Rongsheng continued. She was really upset. It was fine that things didn't go as planned, but how much money would it cost to come to the hospital to give birth? Although it wasn't her money, Zhou Nuan always gave her money as long as she had it on hand. So, it was considered that she had spent her money.
How could she not feel sad?
Come to think of it, this damn girl hasn't given her any money for almost half a year.
Zhou Nuan glanced at her sideways, "It's not your money that's being wasted, why do you feel so bad about it?"
Before He Rongsheng could say anything, Zhou Chang couldn't help but scold him, "Second brother, how do you talk to mom? You have no respect for your parents!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Xiyue, who had been silent all the time, snorted coldly, and his murderous eyes fell on him. Zhou Chang couldn't utter any words.
Not to mention that his brother-in-law was a soldier in the past. Just based on the physique of the man who was half a head taller than him, he didn't think that he, who was bloated, would be able to defeat him.
He wisely kept his mouth shut.
Gu Xiyue didn't even look at the people from the Zhou family, and pushed Zhou Nuan to the ward.
If it weren't for the fact that they were Zhou Nuan's family, he would have driven them away long ago. He knew that the Zhou family had always looked down on the Gu family. He had been away from home all these years and had no chance or time to pay attention to them.
However, Gu Xiyue, who was protective of his people, could not tolerate anyone scolding him in front of him.
Qin Yuezhi was a little embarrassed. After saying a few random words, she quickly chased after Gu Xiyue.
As soon as they left, Zhou Chang couldn't hold back any longer, "Mom, look at Gu Xiyue, does he take us seriously? You are his mother-in-law, and I am his uncle."
He Rongsheng looked very unhappy.
Zhou Chang asked again, "Mom, what should we do about this? Zhizhi is still waiting for me, where can I find the money?"
He Rongsheng was so upset that he rolled his eyes at his son and said, "I don't know? You need me to urge you!"
She had already received half of the money from Shi the Butcher, so even if she wanted to give up now, she couldn't.
How about... Zhou Bing getting married instead?
She looked hesitantly at Zhou Bing, who had a frightened look on his face, but then looked away expressionlessly.
No, Zhou Bing had studied for so many years, it would be a waste to give her to Shi the Butcher. Besides, Zhou Bing was her daughter after all, so she really couldn't bear to let her go.
"You should be nicer to Zhou Nuan these days. I will try to coax her. She has no feelings for Gu Xiyue, so she will definitely listen to me and divorce him."
Zhou Bing heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this.
She just thought her mother was going to sacrifice her, fortunately, fortunately.
but..
Her eyes rolled, full of scheming.
This cheap brother-in-law is more attractive now than he was five years ago. It's a pity that he is paired with Zhou Nuan. If he didn't have two children, he would be a good match for her.
Zhou Nuan had no idea what Zhou Bing was thinking. For her, sixteen or seventeen years old was just the age to go to high school, so how could she have so many thoughts?
Gu Xiyue carried her from the wheelchair to the hospital bed. In fact, she could have moved there by herself. After all, people who gave birth naturally like her usually walked out of the delivery room by themselves. She was young and had a strong ability to recover.
But her thoughts didn't matter, as they just carried her over, as if she was just a light object that didn't require any effort at all.
Zhou Nuan was somewhat used to being held like this by him. However, a young wife next to her was envious, "Your husband is so good to you and he is so strong."
She rolled her eyes at her husband who was standing beside her bed. Her husband was also a young man, but physically, he was not as good as Gu Xiyue.
The young man snorted, "What do you mean? You're blaming me for not being able to hold you? I can lift you up to the sky with one hand, do you believe it?"
The young wife said, "I believe, I believe, I believe that your boasting will fly to the sky."
The couple was bickering, and it was obvious that they had a good relationship. Zhou Nuan almost forgot the pain and was enjoying watching the show, completely ignoring Gu Xiyue who was standing next to her.
Gu Xiyue: “…”
How could he not know that his wife loved to watch the fun? She used to be so timid and didn't even dare to raise her eyes when she saw strangers. She was not like now, staring at people carelessly and with a silly smile on her face.
Could it be possible that getting pregnant and giving birth to a child could change a person's temperament?
He coughed softly and drew Zhou Nuan's attention back, "Are you hungry?"
It would have been fine if he hadn't said it. As soon as he said it, Zhou Nuan felt her stomach twisting. She had almost vomited out the little food she had eaten at noon in the delivery room, and she was extremely hungry.
"Hungry!"
"What do you want to eat? Candied sweet potatoes?" He remembered that she seemed to like eating this.
Zhou Nuan's eyes suddenly lit up and she almost drooled.
"want!"
The corner of Gu Xiyue's mouth twitched, and he gave Qin Yuezhi a few more instructions before turning around to get food for Zhou Nuan.
I heard her voice after taking a few steps, as if she was showing off to the young wife.
"..My twins are both born to me. Am I awesome?"
“…”
