Let’s not talk about what’s happening over there for now, and turn our attention back to the country.
While the UN investigation team was working harder and harder, Xu Jianguo's home was a completely different scene.
As Daya's due date drew closer, Xu Jianguo's family became more and more nervous.
Even though he was a reborn person with top-level traditional Chinese medicine skills, he couldn't help but feel nervous when facing his soon-to-be-born niece.
Let’s not talk about anything else, just take Wen Sitian’s birth as an example. No matter whether it was the first child Wenwen, the second child Lele, or even the third child Ping’an, even though Xu Jianguo had the experience of being a father twice, he would still feel nervous before the child was born.
The one who was even more nervous than him was naturally the expectant father Lin Hongtao.
Apart from practicing walking around the house with a pillow every day, this guy now takes care of all of Daya's affairs inside and outside. Except for eating, sleeping and going to the toilet, which Daya needs to do herself, the rest of the washing of face, hair, feet and clothes are done by Lin Hongtao. He even found his brother-in-law Xu Jianguo and learned some simple massage knowledge from him to help Daya relieve the swelling of her legs and feet.
Lin Hongxia wanted to go over to help several times, but he refused every time. He said that no one else knew about his wife's habits, and that making her uncomfortable would affect the mood of the pregnant woman and the fetus. Lin Hongxia was so angry that she rolled her eyes.
Xu Jianguo and Wen Sitian naturally saw all of this, but they had no intention of interfering and left the opportunity for the couple to cultivate their relationship.
Due to the sufficient nutrition intake and reduced exercise, Daya, who was originally slim and fit, gained weight at a speed visible to the naked eye. She looked a lot fuller and her whole body was filled with a strong maternal glow.
Xu Jianguo would check Daya's pulse from time to time. He didn't care about his sister's weight. As long as both mother and daughter were healthy, that was more important than anything else.
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye it is already mid-February, and there is still a week left before Daya's due date.
Considering that this was Daya's first child and that the family had the conditions, Xu Jianguo directly contacted the director of the obstetrics and gynecology department of the 501 Hospital and had his sister admitted to a single room in advance.
With such an arrangement, both the family members and the pregnant woman herself will feel more at ease and will not have to worry about being in a hurry when the time comes.
Because it is winter vacation, except for Xu Jianguo, Wen Sitian and Lin Hongtao who need to go out to work, everyone else will be with Daya every day, so there is no need to worry about her being bored.
Before Daya was hospitalized, Xu Jianguo had already given all the things adults and children needed to Lin Hongtao, including diapers for the baby.
Lin Hongtao naturally didn't recognize this thing. Later, Daya personally explained it to him and taught him how to use it. She also specifically told him not to tell anyone about it, as our country doesn't have this thing now.
Lin Hongtao, who was in the system, naturally understood the reason and directly made a gesture to silence his wife.
On February 22, 1979, Xu Jianguo, Wen Sitian and Lin Hongtao came to the 501 Hospital as usual after get off work.
Just as the three of them walked up the stairs and arrived at the obstetrics and gynecology ward, they saw Lin Hongxia running towards them from a distance with an anxious look on her face.
Lin Hongtao saw his sister at a glance, his heart suddenly flashed, and he rushed out in a flash.
"What happened to your sister-in-law?!" Lin Hongtao asked anxiously.
"My sister-in-law is about to give birth and has been pushed into the delivery room by the doctor!" Lin Hongxia said.
When the three heard this, they hurried towards the delivery room.
Erya and Funniu were sitting on a bench in the corridor with their three little ones. When they heard the footsteps, they quickly stood up and came to greet them.
"Dad, my aunt just said she had a stomachache..." Lele's little face was tearful as she described what had happened to her father.
Xu Jianguo ruffled her hair and comforted her with a smile, "Don't worry, it's your sister who's making a fuss about coming out. As her older sister, you have to take good care of her!"
"Yes, I will take good care of my sister!" Lele nodded vigorously.
"I will also take good care of my sister!" Xu Ping'an also spoke from the side.
"Okay!" Xu Jianguo smiled and rubbed his youngest son's hair.
With the arrival of Xu Jianguo and the other two, the children immediately felt a backbone, but at this time Lin Hongtao was like an ant on hot pan, pacing back and forth in the corridor.
In the end, it was Xu Jianguo who spoke up and made him sit down obediently.
Erya and Funiu were worried about their elder sister, so their faces were full of tension and they would look towards the delivery room from time to time.
In the delivery room, Daya, lying on the delivery bed, felt the labor pains coming like a tide. Beads of sweat the size of beans kept rolling down her forehead, soaking the pillow.
Despite the unbearable pain, her heart was full of anticipation for the unborn child. Her hands subconsciously stroked her bulging belly, as if communicating with the little life in her belly, giving her strength.
Outside the delivery room, although Lin Hongtao was persuaded by Xu Jianguo to sit down, his eyes were always fixed on the door of the delivery room. He kept rubbing his hands, and his fingers turned slightly white due to the force.
Every minute of waiting seemed so long to him. His mind kept emerging with every little detail of his time with Daya, from their acquaintance to their love. He had never longed for time to pass quickly as much as he did at this moment, so that he could be the first to see Daya safe and sound, and see the fruit of their love come into the world.
Xu Jianguo appeared calm on the surface, but his heart was not as calm as he seemed.
Fortunately, the little one in Daya's belly seemed to feel the anxiety of her relatives, or perhaps it was because of the mother-daughter bond, and she didn't want her mother to suffer too much, so she came into the world smoothly in less than forty minutes.
"Wow~" As a loud baby cry came from the delivery room, everyone in Xu Jianguo's house stood up from the benches.
A moment later, the door of the delivery room was pushed open, and two nurses came out holding the baby, calling out, "Family of Zhao Mingyue!"
When everyone heard this, they immediately showed joy on their faces and quickly responded, "Here we come!"
"Congratulations, both mother and daughter are safe! The baby is healthy and the mother is in good condition. She will be out in ten minutes, don't worry!" As the nurse spoke, she held the baby girl in her arms in front of everyone.
