Chen Xianghong gave birth alone in a military hospital on a rainy night. Yu Hongzhen was not around because he was on a mission. Only Yu Qingqing was anxious like Chen Xianghong's lover.
Fortunately, Chen Xianghong suffered pain all night and finally gave birth to a son in the early morning.
She glanced at the child and fell asleep out of exhaustion, leaving Yu Qingqing holding the child with a speechless look on her face.
Based on her limited social experience, Yu Qingqing thought that this child was truly the ugliest child she had ever seen.
She knew it was rude to say that, but even though Chen Xianghong had added hundreds of filters to the child, even though she was going against her conscience, she really couldn't say that the child was good-looking.
She thought the child looked very much like her grandfather.
Unlike Yu's father and mother, he was a simple and unpretentious old man with a straightforward personality. He was nice to her, but he was a little ugly.
Yu Qingqing wiped her sister-in-law's face and suspected that she didn't fall asleep due to exhaustion, but was frightened by the child's ugliness.
Chen Xianghong didn't wake up until noon. "Qingqing, thank you for your hard work. If it weren't for you, I don't know what I would do."
Yu Qingqing shook her head. "Sister-in-law, please don't say that. This is what I should do. My brother is not here, and it's too late to look for Aunt Xia. I have to stay with you no matter what. What's more, you have done me a favor."
Chen Xianghong: "Don't keep talking about gratitude or not. We are a family."
Yu Qingqing would be very happy every time she heard this, "Sister-in-law, are you hungry? I'll go get you some food."
Chen Xianghong: "I want to see the child first. He must be hungry too. Bring him over to me."
Yu Qingqing pursed her lips and said, "Okay."
Chen Xianghong took the child and teased him as usual, "Qingqing, I think he is really cute. His mouth looks like your brother's, and his nose looks like mine."
Chen Xianghong is full of the radiance of maternal love.
Yu Qingqing scratched her head, "Ah, yes, it's really... cute."
She thought there must be something wrong with her sister-in-law's eyes.
After the birth, Yu Hongzhen hurried over, "Xiang Hong, you... gave birth?"
Chen Xianghong nodded, "Brother Yu, come and see the child."
Yu Hongzhen touched her hair and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
Then, he carefully took the child and, under Chen Xianghong's guidance, held him firmly in his arms. "This child is really cute, isn't he, Qingqing?"
Yu Qingqing bit her lip and began to doubt her eyes.
They named the child Yu Chen because he was born in the early morning.
Half a year before Chen Xianghong gave birth to her son, Yu's father and mother gave birth to another daughter.
At that time, because Yu's father was missing an ear, he applied for early retirement. Yu's mother was in critical health due to giving birth at an advanced age, and finally had no choice but to retire.
They originally wanted to have a child who could inherit their resources and listen to them, but they didn't expect that once the child was born, they would have no resources left.
At first, they tried to make Yu Hongzhen take responsibility and caused a lot of trouble in the army.
Chen Xianghong and her husband were extremely annoyed. Moreover, Xianghong was experiencing the most severe morning sickness at that time and had no energy to take care of a child.
As a result, Yu Hongzhen was reported for being unfilial to his parents, and they even made trouble at Chen Xianghong's workplace.
Just when Yu Hongzhen was about to give in, Chen Xianghong took a bundle of hemp rope and threatened Yu Hongzhen that if he continued to do so, he would be hanged in their army.
Yu Hongzhen grabbed the hemp rope and tied up Yu's father and mother. He drove them back to his grandfather's house in the suburbs of Hai City at night and told his grandfather not to let them out, otherwise his tenure as battalion commander would be over.
When the old man heard the seriousness of the situation, he immediately said that he would never let them leave the old house.
Yu's father and mother wanted to run away. With their self-respect, they would never be locked up in such a place. But Grandpa Yu was also a man.
As soon as they ran back to their own house in the city of Haishi, Grandpa Yu yelled at them for being unfilial at the door, and finally forced them to move into the house with their newborn daughter Yu Jingjing.
If Yu Hongzhen's natural enemy is his parents, then the natural enemy of Yu's parents is Grandpa Yu.
Grandpa Yu even asked someone to help write a letter to Yu Hongzhen. The letter contained only one sentence, which was to let him rest assured.
Old Mrs. Xia came over the day after Chen Xianghong gave birth, and her first reaction when she saw the child was exactly the same as Yu Qingqing's.
But she had experience after all, and her face didn't show it at all. "This child has a unique look. He will definitely be a capable person in the future."
While Yu Qingqing looked like she had learned something, Old Lady Xia kept saying nice things to her.
When Old Lady Xia went out, Yu Qingqing followed her and said, "Aunt, my nephew...how could this happen?"
Old Mrs. Xia couldn't figure it out. Xiao Yu was good-looking, and Xiang Hong was pretty too, so how could their child be like this? "Do you think they gave birth to the wrong child?"
Yu Qingqing waved her hand: "No, my sister-in-law was the only one giving birth at the military hospital that day, and the child's eyebrows and eyes look a lot like my grandfather."
After finding the culprit, Old Lady Xia didn't know whether to breathe a sigh of relief or worry. However, seeing Yu Qingqing like this, she could only advise: "The child will be fine once he grows up. He was ugly when he was born. Really, believe me, I gave birth to five children and raised four of them."
Yu Qingqing believed it, and for the next ten years, she hoped every day that Yu Chen would grow up quickly and become handsome.
Fortunately, Yu Chen lived up to everyone's expectations and grew up to be much more handsome than when he was a child. Although he has an ordinary face and can be lost in a crowd, he is no longer dark and ugly.
That's fine, everyone thinks so.
Yu Qingqing accepted the man who pursued her when her nephew was four years old. They lived happily after getting married. Old Mrs. Xia thought that Yu Qingqing's boyfriend was better than Xiao Yu, at least his family didn't have so many problems.
Even if Yu Qingqing had mental problems in the past, her boyfriend and his family didn't mind and were sincere to her, so that was the best marriage.
Old Mrs. Xia was even invited to act as the bride's elder to see her off to get married. On the day of Yu Qingqing's wedding, she hugged her and cried for a long time.
"Aunt, I always felt that my life was terrible, but now, it doesn't seem so bad."
Old Lady Xia patted her on the back and said, "Qingqing, you will only have good luck in the future."
She was wearing the red wedding dress made by her sister-in-law, the red leather shoes bought by her sister-in-law, and the earrings given to her by Aunt Xia. Yu Qingqing looked at herself in the mirror with trembling lips.
This was the first time in her life that she wore a wedding dress. The last time she got married, she was forced to do so. Not only was she not given a red wedding dress, but even her old new clothes were snatched away by the bandits.
It turns out that being married can be so happy and you can receive so many sincere blessings from so many people.
