Pei Lina tried to get down, but found she had no strength and had no choice but to sit back down.
"Isn't Aunt Wu here? Can't the two of us take care of her together?"
"She's only responsible for taking care of you; she won't take care of the baby. Just stay here and rest during your postpartum period. I'll come see you tomorrow." Yan Tao had already decided not to come tomorrow. After having a son, he was reluctant to spend such a large sum of money on this matter.
He's past 40 and past the age where he can earn money, and suddenly taking out 10,000 yuan will definitely have a significant impact on his future life.
After much deliberation, I decided to delay it until things got really bad, then give them a thousand or two dollars and that would be the end of it.
"Old Yan, you're not planning to run away with the child, are you?" Pei Lina crossed her arms. "Don't think I'm young and naive. I have more than just you as friends outside. If you dare to lie to me, I'll make you regret it!"
"No, you can just focus on your postpartum recovery." Yan Tao didn't want to stay any longer, so he added another jacket over the baby's blanket, turned around, and walked out. He nodded to the nanny he had hired, having already instructed her to keep an eye on Pei Lina and prevent her from leaving the house.
Yan Family
Yan Tao brought a child back so openly that everyone except Su Mei was dumbfounded.
Yan Tao handed the child to his wife: "I found this child on the roadside. I felt sorry for him, so I brought him home."
Su Mei looked at the baby in her arms; it was clearly a newborn. Since she had chosen to bring the baby home, she probably only wanted the child and not the adult. Her heart finally settled; she didn't feel much aversion to having another child.
"It's so tiny! I'll take it back inside first, and you go outside and get two cans of formula."
“You don’t need to go out to buy milk powder. A friend just gave me a few cans a few days ago, and they’re in the kitchen cabinet. I didn’t tell you,” Yan Tao explained.
Su Mei didn't say anything more, just nodded slightly to indicate that she understood. Having given birth to three children herself, she naturally knew how to take care of a baby. With her daughter's help, the fussy child quickly calmed down.
After learning that the child was a boy, Su Mei finally understood what was going on.
He says he doesn't discriminate against girls, but he actually does care. He feels helpless but there's nothing he can do but accept it.
...
Children adapt very quickly; they established a routine within just one week.
Early that morning, Li Meihua tidied up the house briefly, and after breakfast, I said to everyone.
"Xiaoshan and the others take the train at 3 PM. Who's going to pick them up?"
Qiao Dashan put down his chopsticks: "I'll go!"
Su Chenhao: "I'll go too. I bet they took a lot of stuff. It's better to have one more person than one less."
Li Meihua tidied the table: "Son-in-law, you shouldn't go. You're so busy with work, don't let it interfere with your work. I doubt there's much to go anyway."
Su Chenhao thought for a moment and said, "How about this, I'll find someone to go with my older brother."
"That works too." Li Meihua thought it was a good idea, but she was also worried that her youngest son would bring too much stuff.
The matter was settled. Su Chenhao went back to his room to change his clothes and then went to the factory. He arranged for someone to go to his home in the afternoon to explain everything that needed to be explained. He felt that there shouldn't be anything missing.
