When Su Xingran woke up, it was already the next day. Knowing that Su Xingran had used up a lot of energy and was exhausted and sleepy, Gu Moli and the others didn't wake her up. The baby cried because he was hungry, and Zeng Huilan fed him formula while Gu Moli observed.
When the baby wet or soiled himself, Zeng Huilan changed the diaper, and Gu Moli watched and learned. Seeing his interest, Zeng Huilan gently guided him. Zeng Huilan thought it was normal for a man to learn this; when she gave birth to Su Xingran, Su Guomin did the same, washing the baby's diapers and her clothes during her postpartum period.
Liang Yun came from home in the morning, bringing Su Xingran some chicken soup and rice that she had cooked at home. She also brought breakfast for Gu Moli and Zeng Huilan. Liang Yun also prepared a bag of candy and some pastries to distribute to the doctors and nurses in the obstetrics department.
After breakfast, Su Xingran asked Gu Moli to bring the two children to bed. She was too tired last night and hadn't had a chance to properly look at the children. Seeing the two little ones sleeping soundly, Su Xingran's heart melted.
Zeng Huilan and Liang Yun came over and stood around the bed looking at the baby. Zeng Huilan whispered, "The little girl looks like Ranran when she was little. Ranran was less than five pounds when she was born, and she was so tiny."
Liang Yun whispered, "Brother and Mo Li are just like when they were little, especially their mouths. It's so nice that one child looks like their father and the other like their mother; neither of them is missing out."
Gu Moli listened to Zeng Huilan say that his younger sister resembled Su Xingran as a child. Looking at his sleeping daughter, he thought to himself, "So this is what Ranran looked like when she was little." Gu Moli felt incredibly lucky to have witnessed Su Xingran's childhood. It was as if he had participated in Su Xingran's childhood.
Listening to what the two mothers were saying, Su Xingran also had her own thoughts. The boy looked like Gu Moli when he was a child, and the girl looked like herself when she was a child. Would it be that when she and Gu Moli saw the two children in the future, it would be like seeing themselves as children?
It could also be due to Su Xingran's martial arts practice and regular exercise. After waking up, Su Xingran felt fine except for some pain from her torn wound. She could use the toilet independently and had no problems walking.
The doctor came to check on Su Xingran and the child, and seeing that everything was normal, moved on to the next ward. Doctors are generally familiar with the details of their procedures, so the examining doctor didn't say much more.
Su Xingran stayed in the hospital for two days, and since everything was fine, she was discharged with her baby and went home to recuperate after childbirth. Everyone assumed that Su Xingran was staying at her apartment. With Gu Moli, Zeng Huilan, and Liang Yun there, Su Xingran didn't need to take care of the baby during her postpartum period, except for breastfeeding.
The two mothers' exact words were, "Women need to take good care of themselves during childbirth and postpartum, otherwise their health will collapse. When you're young, you won't feel the problem, but when you get old, you'll have aches and pains all over the place." Gu Moli kept these words in mind and took the initiative to do any work, while Su Xingran only needed to eat and sleep.
Soon it would be time for the babies to turn one month old, and the elders in the family unanimously decided not to get involved in naming the two children, leaving it to Gu Moli and Su Xingran to choose the names themselves. Gu Moli thought he couldn't come up with any names, so in the end, the task of naming the children fell to Su Xingran.
Su Xingran named her brother Gu Huaijin and her sister Gu Shuyao. Gu Moli thought it was a good name, and that's how the children's names were decided. On the day the children turned one month old, the Gu family held a banquet and invited some close relatives and friends.
