As Xie Mingzhu spoke, she took out a thermos from the cotton insulation cover she had sewn herself.
"Quickly, this is the soup I made for you. It has a lot of nourishing ingredients in it. Drink it quickly to replenish your energy and get some rest."
"You are pregnant now, and your body is already weak enough. You have already given birth once, so you must not exhaust yourself. You need to take good care of yourself."
“I know you were worried when your mother went missing, but there was nothing we could do.”
"But now that your mother is back, you and your mother are reunited, and everyone is happy. Your mother is no longer in danger, so we will bring her to our home to recuperate. You and your mother can see each other every day, and you don't have to worry all the time. From now on, you should take good care of your health."
As Xie Mingzhu spoke, she poured the soup into the bowl she had brought, stirred it with a spoon, blew on it, and handed it to Shu Ying when she felt the temperature was about right.
"Quick, try this soup and see how it tastes. If you don't like it, I can go back now and make you a new one."
Seeing Shu Ying's somewhat vulnerable state, Xie Mingzhu felt a pang of tenderness and couldn't help but reach out to brush a stray hair from Shu Ying's forehead.
"Your medical skills are so good, I believe you can definitely cure your mother. It's alright."
Shu Ying felt a warmth in her heart as her sister took such good care of her. She took the soup, drank a sip, and smiled at her.
"It's delicious, thank you, sister."
Xie Mingzhu's eyes instantly crinkled into crescent moons with laughter.
"Don't thank me, we're all family, it's only right."
Noticing that Shu Ying seemed a little tired, Xie Mingzhu took the initiative to sit next to Shu Ying and patted her shoulder.
"If you feel tired of sitting, lean on my shoulder and drink."
Xie Zhiyan, standing to the side: ?
Ever since the sister brushed the stray hairs from his wife's ear, everything she's been saying and doing has been strange.
Xie Zhiyan solemnly took the initiative to sit down next to Shu Ying.
"No need, sister, Yingying can just lean on me."
Xie Mingzhu was taken aback for a moment, then couldn't help but laugh.
"My younger brother should be renamed 'King of Vinegar,' instead of Xie Zhiyan."
The two little ones listened from the side, clapping and making a ruckus.
"Jealous King! My dad is a jealous king!"
Xie Zhiyan frowned deliberately upon hearing this.
"Aren't you two siding with outsiders?"
The two little ones scratched their heads and tilted their heads.
"Auntie is not an outsider, she is an 'inner' person. Auntie, Mom and Dad, Grandma and Grandpa are all our closest and dearest people!"
Xie Zhiyan was both amused and exasperated, and vigorously rubbed the two little ones' heads.
"You guys have the sweetest tongues."
In the warm atmosphere, Shu Ying suddenly heard a faint voice, which seemed to be calling her name.
“Yingying…”
Shu Ying suddenly realized something and turned her head to look at the hospital bed.
Yang Wan, who had been asleep due to the anesthesia, opened her eyes groggily and tried to turn her eyeballs toward the direction of the sound, tentatively calling her name.
"Yingying, is that you...?"
Shu Ying's hand trembled, and she didn't even bother to put down the soup bowl in her hand.
Fortunately, Xie Zhiyan had anticipated this and promptly took the soup bowl from Shu Ying's hands.
The next second, Shu Ying rushed to the bedside.
Before she even arrived, tears were already streaming down her face.
"Mom, I'm here, I'm here!"
Shuying, with tears streaming down her face, quickly grasped her mother's hand.
Yang Wan was still in a daze, thinking she was dreaming, until she felt the real warmth of her daughter's hand, which brought her back to reality.
Her lips curved into a joyful smile as she murmured to herself, her fingers tracing Shu Ying's hand.
“Yingying, my Yingying…”
Shu Ying could no longer hold back her tears, which burst forth in an instant, and she threw herself into her mother's arms.
"Mom, it's me. I've been here with you. Don't worry, we've taken you to the best hospital. You're fine now. I'll stay with you from now on..."
Shu Ying spoke intermittently while crying.
Xie Mingzhu and Xie Zhiyan watched from the side, not daring to go forward and disturb them. They were both moved and touched, and their eyes couldn't help but redden.
Before Yang Wan knew it, tears were streaming down her face. With all her might, she trembled as she raised her hand and gently stroked Shu Ying's hair, curving her lips into a smile.
"Silly child, you're a mother now, why are you still acting like a little kid?"
As she spoke, she sighed softly again.
"But as long as your mother is here, you can always be a child with her."
The more Yang Wan said this, the harder Shu Ying cried.
Yangyang and Yueyue, the two little ones, finally couldn't resist and rushed over with their short legs to hug their grandma's arm.
"Waaaaah, Grandma, you're finally awake! Yangyang and Yueyue were so worried about you!"
"Grandma, does it hurt? You have so many wounds on your body!"
"Yangyang and Yueyue, blow on it for Grandma, it will make the pain go away!"
The two little ones puffed out their cheeks and blew hard for Yang Wan.
Yang Wan hadn't expected to feel such warmth as soon as she woke up. She looked at her two grandsons and granddaughter with loving and gentle eyes.
"Good boy, you are all good children."
Xie Zhiyan rubbed his eyes and went forward with Xie Mingzhu to greet them.
Seeing how much her daughter and son-in-law cared for her, Yang Wan felt a warmth in her heart and said in a slightly hoarse voice.
"Okay, okay, thank you for coming to see me."
Xie Zhiyan noticed that Yang Wan was still somewhat weak and clearly needed to rest, so he frowned and thought for a moment.
"Mom, how about I take the two kids out first, so they won't disturb you?"
Yang Wan quickly waved her hand forcefully.
"No need, I'm happy just looking at these two children."
No one knows how much she missed them during those days when she was alone in Baishi Village, on the verge of death.
She even thought that her life had come to an end and that she would never see Shuying and the others again.
Now that I've opened my eyes again and am seeing them in good health, it all feels like a dream.
She cherishes it too much.
"You have no idea how happy I am to see you all around me."
Shu Ying's face was covered in tears, unsure whether to cry or laugh, her voice choked with sobs.
"Mom, we're happy too."
Yang Wan smiled and patted Shu Ying on the back.
Okay, okay.
The two little ones joined in the fun, craning their little heads forward.
"Grandma, can you pat us too?"
Yang Wan smiled even more happily and patted the two children on the back.
"Okay, Grandma will take pictures of you too."
The two kids chuckled.
Shu Ying and Xie Mingzhu, watching from the side, couldn't help but laugh and sigh at the two little ones.
"It's wonderful that the family is finally reunited. We'll never be separated again."
The ward was filled with laughter and warmth at this moment.
Yang Wan was still very weak. After talking to her daughter, son-in-law, and two children for a few minutes, she was clearly exhausted and looked very tired.
Shuying knew she shouldn't disturb her mother's rest, so she fed her mother some spiritual spring water and then took the children out first.
