"That's great! That's great!"
When Lin Cuixin saw her grandchildren, their faces were as smiling as flowers and she kept saying "good" to them.
"Qingqing, you've suffered a lot, don't worry, mom will definitely take good care of you during the confinement period and make you plump and white!"
The more Lin Cuixin thought about it, the more she felt that she was lucky. Both of her daughters-in-law were filial, and there weren't so many messy things at home. Apart from her husband's illness that made her worried, there was really nothing to worry about. Now that she had three grandchildren in succession, she felt more comfortable than ever before. Even if she had to take care of her two daughters-in-law during their confinement, she was happy to do it!
"Thank you, Mom."
Lin Cuixin glared at her, "Why thank you! If there's anything to thank, it's Mom who's thanking you. You gave birth to two grandchildren for our family at once. You're a great contributor to our family!"
I don’t know about the previous ones, but in recent generations, neither the Xiang family nor her mother’s family nor the Ye family had twins. But the youngest son actually gave birth to twins. She felt proud just thinking about it.
"Take good care of yourself, and give Yanyan and Yueyue a brother or sister in two years."
She gave birth to twins this time, so maybe she will also have twins next time. It’s a beautiful thought!
"Mom, Qingqing just gave birth, why are you saying all this? These two are enough for us, we won't have any more children in the future."
Having these two children has almost driven him bald with worry. He is worried every day and his wife is suffering too. It’s better not to have any more children.
"Qingqing, that's not what Mom meant. The most important thing for you now is to take good care of your body. Haha, we can talk about having a baby later."
Seeing that her son looked unhappy, Lin Cuixin realized that she shouldn't have said this now, and hurriedly explained to her daughter-in-law.
But she still had to have children. Every family has four or five children. She felt that having three was too few. In fact, she got pregnant with another baby after Xiang Chunling, but she didn't take good care of it and lost it within three months. She has never been able to get pregnant again since then, which has always been a regret in her heart.
"Mom, I know. Changlin still has to go to work. It will be troublesome for me to take care of two children by myself in the future. Let's talk about the second child after the child is older."
Ye Qing didn't plan to have another child, but there was no need to argue with her mother-in-law about this matter now. The most important thing was to do the current things well. If they couldn't get pregnant in the future, her mother-in-law would have no choice.
"Yes, let's talk about it later. Don't worry about the child. Your father will be well again this year. I will come often to take care of the child for you."
Lin Cuixin heaved a sigh of relief when she heard that her daughter-in-law didn't say she didn't want a child. The couple had a good relationship, and once she got well, wouldn't it be easy for her to get pregnant?
"Have you had your milk?"
I just breathed a sigh of relief but then I started to worry again when I thought about the food problem for my two grandchildren. What if the two children don’t have enough milk?
Ye Qing nodded, "Here it is, but it's not enough for two people, so I'm adding some milk powder."
"That's good. Milk powder is expensive, but we can't let the child starve."
"Are you hungry? How about I make you some millet porridge?"
"Okay, don't put brown sugar in it."
She doesn't like brown sugar mixed in millet porridge because the sweetness alone takes away the aroma of rice.
"Okay, Mom will make it for you right away."
Lin Cuixin went to cook porridge with a grin on her face.
In order to take care of the children more conveniently at night, Lin Cuixin slept on the same kang with the couple.
The two children were really troublesome. They were pooping and peeing, and were hungry and crying. They woke up four or five times a night. Ye Qing was already weak after giving birth, and now she couldn't even sleep well.
Xiang Changlin felt sorry for his wife and wanted her to sleep in the small house, but Ye Qing didn't agree because he couldn't bear to leave the child.
The next day, Xiang Changlin went to work yawning. After the two children fell asleep, Ye Qing hurriedly urged her mother-in-law to go to the cabin to catch up on some sleep. The two children had made the three adults very restless last night.
In the morning, Ye Erzhu and his wife came over with their child and brought twenty eggs. The old hen at home was also killed and brought over.
"Dad, why did you kill the old hen instead of keeping it for laying eggs?"
Ye Erzhu held Yanyan in his arms, looking at her with great care, "It's to nourish your body, what else?"
Wang Juan smiled and said, "We still have some at home. We have raised two more since you became pregnant, specially for you to eat during your confinement."
They live far away and no one comes to visit them usually, so they can raise more fish secretly and no one will notice.
"These eggs are specially saved for you."
"Did you leave any for Jianjun? I still have quite a bit here, and my mother-in-law also brought quite a bit yesterday."
Ye Jianjun was less than one year old and meat was hard to buy those days, so he could only eat eggs to supplement his nutrition.
"It's kept, he doesn't need it. Why is Yueyue still closing her eyes? She hasn't opened them in the past two days?"
Wang Juan looked at her granddaughter in her arms and the more she looked, the more she resembled her eldest daughter when she was a child. This reminded her of the first time she became a mother. Twenty years had passed in a flash.
"No, she kept her eyes closed when eating and sleeping. She opened her eyes when her brother was in the hospital."
"Why don't we wait for Changlin to come back and take him to the hospital for a checkup?"
Lin Cuixin always felt uneasy. Logically, she should open her eyes and go see them to feel at ease.
Ye Qing nodded, "Okay."
Her daughter kept not opening her eyes, and she felt a little uneasy.
"Ahh! Poof!"
Seeing that his mother had thrown him on the kang and left him there, with something unknown in her arms, Ye Jianjun became very unhappy and crawled over to his mother and started climbing onto her.
"Mom is holding your little nephew, you can play by yourself."
Ten-month-old Ye Jianjun has grown into a little fat boy, with such solid flesh all over his body that my arms get sore when I hold him for a while. He is still jumping around and not obedient at all. He is not as easy to hold as a newborn baby.
When Ye Jianjun saw that his mother didn't hold him, he pouted and started crying.
Wang Juan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She could only put Yueyue down and hug him in her arms. She wiped his tears and taught him, "You are an uncle, and you are still crying! Isn't it shameful?"
Ye Jianjun stopped crying when he returned to his mother's arms. He started giggling again, and his two chubby arms tightly wrapped around his mother's neck, refusing to let go.
Ye Qing smiled and scratched his little nose, "You may be young, but you have a lot of ideas, and you even know how to get jealous!"
There was no room at home, and the village couldn't leave without someone, so Ye Erzhu and his family of three stayed until about 3 p.m. and went back. Xiang Changlin came home from get off work and hadn't even had dinner when Lin Cuixin urged him to take the child to the hospital.
The mother and the child returned in less than an hour. Ye Qing hurriedly asked, "What did the doctor say?"
