An'an also exchanged contact information with the new mothers so they could get together and share parenting experiences.
From initially not wanting to leave to now not wanting to go, it seems that postpartum care centers are quite attractive.
"I am so grateful to all the teachers for taking such good care of me and my baby during this time. I have gained ten pounds. If any of my friends give birth in the future, I will recommend them to come here."
"Ms. Xu, you're too kind. Your satisfaction is the greatest recognition for us."
The training An'an received at the postpartum care center has given him some experience in taking care of children. Now he is quite adept at changing diapers, feeding, and putting the baby to sleep.
Not only An'an, but Xie Chuan also learned how to change diapers and soothe the baby to sleep.
After all, he not only accompanied An'an at the postpartum care center, but he also learned some things so that he could help An'an share the burden.
"Honey, how can you be so thoughtful?"
"Isn't taking care of you and the baby what I'm supposed to do?"
"But I need to ask you for leave tomorrow. I have to go back to the company tomorrow because there is a big project that I need to review in person."
"Go get back to work. It's been so long since you've been to the company. I'm worried that there are things you can't do without you. Although I know you have a lot of talented people there now, your presence is like a pillar of strength, making the employees feel very secure."
"Don't worry, I will manage my work and family life well from now on."
"But to be honest, you and the child are still my top priority."
Xie Chuan was aware of the situation.
But he doesn't neglect his work; he handles it with ease.
He also hopes to spend more time with his child so that his childhood will be happy and fulfilling.
Xie Chuan's parents also decided not to go abroad for the time being. After all, he was the eldest grandson of the Xie family. Although they did not have the idea of favoring boys over girls, this child could continue the Xie family line, and the older generation still valued this.
So they keep buying gold locks and gold chains for the child. Now the baby has a whole drawer full of gold jewelry, all bought by the child's grandparents.
Yu Jiu and Xu Zijiang also doted on the baby, and even Xu Feng would sometimes buy things for the baby.
Let the baby know that he has an uncle who will look after him.
"Baby, look how lovable you are! Your gold jewelry is almost as much as mine. When you can talk, you must thank your grandparents, maternal grandparents, and your narcissistic uncle properly."
"How can you talk like that? Sis, when have I ever been narcissistic? You should tell my nephew that his uncle will protect him if anything happens in the future."
"You should take care of your own business first. When are you going to start a relationship with Yingying? You're not getting any younger. I already have a child. When are you going to let your parents become grandparents?"
An'an teased him on purpose.
"Sis, when did you start talking like Mom and Dad?"
"I think I just heard my parents talking in my ear. It seems there's no place for me in this house anymore."
Xu Feng chuckled and said that he could only relax in front of his family.
"Stop joking with me."
“This matter can’t be rushed. Besides, I’ve already mentioned it to Yingying, but her family said they need to think about it some more. I don’t know what they need to think about. Our family isn’t bad off either.”
It would have been better if I hadn't said anything, but it was still quite disheartening to talk about it. Although Lu Yingying's parents liked her quite a bit and seemed to want her to get married soon, they were still hesitant when it came to the topic of marriage.
“People who marry off their daughters should definitely think it over carefully, just like our parents did back then. Your brother-in-law is not bad either, but he still thought about it for many years.”
An'an understands her parents' thoughts best. It's not about whether the partner is good or not; it's that parents can't bear to part with their child. After all, once married, they'll be real adults and will have children, so they're generally not in a rush to get their children married.
“That makes sense. Anyway, I’m not in a hurry. Yingying’s parents aren’t in a hurry either, so what’s the use of me being anxious? Let’s just wait patiently. We’re doing fine as we are now, and we can see Yingying every day.”
Xu Feng proudly said that he liked Yingying very much and was willing to wait for her for a long time.
"Alright, then I'll just have to postpone your wedding gift for a while longer."
An'an found it amusing and deliberately brought it up.
"What big gift are you planning to give me? You're being so mysterious."
"You're not married yet, why should I tell you? We'll talk about it when you're married."
The siblings' daily bickering is still the same as before.
In order to take care of her child, An'an also wanted to quit her job and become a full-time mother. She didn't want her child to lack parental love during his childhood.
Moreover, Xie Chuan has the ability to support his wife and son. When the child grows up a bit more, An An can return to her old job and go back to the company. Or perhaps she has always wanted to start her own business, but she just hasn't had the opportunity before.
"Honey, I've been thinking about it, and I think I should just go back to my company and quit my job so I can stay home and take care of our son full-time. Once he starts elementary school, I'll start my own business."
"I still want to realize my dream of starting my own business."
An'an made a decision. Since the company was her own business, she quit her job. Even if the startup failed, she could still go back to work. It just meant that Xu Feng would have a harder time without her.
“Sure, I fully support you. I have the ability to support you and your child. I will give you the funds to start your business.”
Xie Chuan's first reaction was to support any decision An An made.
"No need for that. I've saved up quite a bit of money over the years, enough for me to live on."
Why are you still being so distant with your husband?
Hearing An'an say that, Xie Chuan felt a little hurt, but since the passbook and password were held by both of them, and An'an usually didn't mind spending his money, he felt a little better after thinking about it.
"It's not that I'm being distant, I just want to rely on myself. If I really can't afford it anymore, then you can sponsor me, okay?"
An'an clung to Xie Chuan's hand affectionately.
"I'll do whatever you say."
An'an is a very thoughtful girl, and she is also very outstanding. She never thought of relying on others to achieve success.
It might also be because she was born into a good family and has the confidence to do so.
The company was a little reluctant to see her go, as she was very capable. An'an's departure was like losing a key member of the company.
However, since Yu Jiu and Xu Zijiang both agreed to their daughter's choice, Xu Feng had no choice but to agree as well.
And so, An'an devoted all his attention to his family, spending every day with his baby.
In addition, her cooking skills have improved a lot, and she even took a class to learn how to cook. She makes snacks and meals whenever she is interested.
She was just thinking that she could cook a delicious meal for Xie Chuan when he came back, so that he wouldn't have to work so hard. Of course, most of the time the dishes she made were terrible, but Xie Chuan still accepted them with a smile.
"What dish did you learn to cook today?"
"Crucian carp and tofu soup, sweet and sour pork, and sweet and sour pork."
"It looks really good."
"It tastes so nice."
"Really? I feel like all three dishes today are particularly difficult to make."
"Honey, I think your cooking skills have improved a lot now."
“But I also broke my promise. When we got married, I said I wouldn’t let you cook.”
"Oh, this way I can help you out a bit, right? You've been working so hard all day, and I don't have anything else to do right now, so I can just cook and have some fun."
Just as the two of them were talking, the baby suddenly called out "Mommy".
"Mom...Mom...Mom..."
Although his voice was muffled, it was audible if you listened closely.
"Honey, is the baby calling me?"
"It seems so, let's go listen to it."
They quickly went to the child, who gazed at them with his big, watery eyes.
She kept calling out "Mom" to herself.
