272 Naming a Child
Gao Qinghe and her daughter were surrounded by the warmth and care of their family members. They felt very happy at first, but soon they felt annoyed.
She doesn't need so many people to take care of her at all. The child is very well behaved as long as he has milk. He sleeps soundly in the crib and doesn't need anyone to hold him.
Hug this one, hug that one, and the originally well-behaved child was woken up one after another.
Gao Qinghe sincerely hoped that he could have a quiet life in the next month.
So she told her parents and mother-in-law that they could inform relatives and friends, but visits were strictly prohibited because she had no time to entertain outsiders.
Gao Qinghe urged everyone to leave.
Everyone ignored her and discussed the matter on their own.
Finally, Old Mrs. Tian made the decision that except for her husband Jiang Baohai, everyone else should go to work and school.
Jiang Baohai had been preparing to take care of his wife during her confinement period for a long time. Although it was a month earlier than planned, the rest of the things had been arranged almost.
There was nothing in the general direction that required his involvement, so all the affairs of the company were temporarily handed over to Fang Xiaoyu and Shan Yunhai.
If you are undecided, bring it home and he will deal with it.
Old Mrs. Arita takes care of three meals a day, and he stays to take care of his wife and daughter, with his mother lending a hand, which is enough.
If there is any other need, just let Gao Qingmiao help.
The main reason is that it is an awkward time now, but after this week, when the school is on vacation, there will be several people freed up at home.
Before leaving, Gao Qingya vowed to her brother-in-law:
"Brother-in-law, wait until I finish my exams, and I'll help you take care of the child. No one can snatch the child from me!"
There was something hidden in his expression, as he was afraid that the child's aunt would take away the job.
When Gao Chongyi saw the due date, he excitedly said that it was summer vacation and he would come directly to take care of his daughter's baby.
No one expected it to happen more than a month earlier.
But the promise is still valid now, and he said to Mrs. Tian: "Mom, when I finish my work at school, you can come back and I will take care of you."
"You take care of her?" Old Mrs. Tian said disapprovingly, "Can you cook? Will the food you cook suit my granddaughter's taste?"
"I think you should just forget it. I'm here for you."
Afraid that Jiang Baohai would despise her, the old lady patted her chest and said:
"Don't look at my age, my health is not necessarily worse than you young people. Besides, I am willing to work hard for my eldest granddaughter to keep herself healthy!"
Jiang Baohai didn't dare to despise her, he was so grateful that he couldn't express it in words.
He knew that his wife loved the food cooked by his grandmother the most, so whenever they returned to Shanghe Village, she would have two big bowls of it.
Qi Lianxin also wanted to say that she could cook and was willing to serve her daughter-in-law, but she had no right to speak here.
Everything can only be arranged clearly by my grandmother-in-law.
"Dear in-laws, just help with the washing and scrubbing. Let's work together to ensure that the mother and daughter can spend their confinement comfortably. This also allows the children to go back to earning money to support the family. If the family works together, life will become more and more enjoyable, don't you think?"
Qi Lianxin nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, that's right, her grandmother, you are right, we will listen to you."
Huang Ying pulled her son-in-law aside and stuffed a big red envelope into his hand.
Seeing Jiang Baohai was about to retreat, he said without question: "Take it, this is a gift I gave to my granddaughter. Don't bully her and make decisions for her just because she can't speak."
Gao Chongyi also nodded in agreement and forbade Jiang Baohai to return the red envelope.
They knew their son-in-law had the ability to make a lot of money.
But they are not doing badly now. Their engineering career is booming and they have enough confidence to support their children.
The couple looked at the little baby sleeping obediently in the crib after eating, and felt that their lives had a purpose again, and their career ambitions were more inflated than ever before.
Gao Qingmiao had to look after the store, but his schedule was flexible, so he told his brother-in-law that if he needed anything, he would just let him know and he could run errands for free.
Jiang Baohai patted his brother-in-law's shoulder with relief, indicating that he would not be polite.
Seeing that it was almost noon, Old Mrs. Tian drove away all the unnecessary people.
He hurried to buy some vegetables and brought them back to Gao Qingmiao, then prepared lunch and sent it to the hospital.
At noon, Jiang Yu hurried over, just like Old Lady Tian who came to deliver lunch.
While there was someone looking after his mother, Jiang Baohai drove her home to rest after staying up all night, and also brought back a lot of things from home.
Gao Qinghe was so hungry that his chest was sticking to his back.
As soon as the food brought by grandma was served, she sat up, picked up the bowl and chopsticks and started eating.
"Tsk tsk tsk~" Old Mrs. Tian shook her head, feeling both distressed and amused. "Eat slowly, it's a full bucket, no one will snatch it from you."
Gao Qinghe ate until she was about 70% full, then she remembered her husband and asked her grandmother:
"Any leftovers?"
Doesn’t Old Mrs. Tian know what she is thinking?
He said jokingly, "Don't worry about eating. I made a big portion, enough for both of you to eat."
However, now the granddaughter is the one who is given the main attention, so the grandson-in-law can only bear with it temporarily and eat the confinement meals with her.
Gao Qinghe remembered the postpartum meal recipes given by the system. After eating, she asked Jiang Yu to give her a pen and paper, and wrote down the menu and gave it to her grandmother.
"This is the confinement meal menu I saw in a book before. Grandma, please make it for me according to this."
Old Mrs. Tian is literate and can understand simple words. If she doesn’t understand, she can ask her grandson.
Although I was skeptical about the menu in the book, I still carefully put it away and planned to take it home to study it carefully.
Because of the early birth, the single room that Jiang Baohai had previously booked could not be vacated in time and had to wait for two days. Now Gao Qinghe could only temporarily live in a triple room.
At present, she is the only pregnant woman in this ward, and the bed next to her and the bed opposite her are empty.
Jiang Baohai also booked the bed next door so that he could take care of the mother and daughter and have a place to lie down himself.
At night, after everyone left, only a family of three was left in the ward.
Gao Qinghe was half lying on the bed, with her daughter wrapped in a blanket in her arms.
Jiang Baohai sat at the head of the bed, one arm around his wife, and the couple guarded their daughter in the middle.
The little guy had just finished a meal and was sleeping soundly. His tiny body rose and fell in the quilt with his breathing, and his little nostrils opened and closed, which was so touching.
It was getting late, the doctor had just come to check on the woman and urged her to go to bed.
But Gao Qinghe was so excited that he couldn't sleep. He looked at his daughter's little face and whispered:
"Let's give her a name."
Jiang Baohai's eyes lit up. He had already thought of dozens of names and immediately said the ones he thought were the best.
"Xingxing, Yueyue, Yangyang, Yuanman, Meihao, Jiajia, which one do you think is better?"
Gao Qinghe glared at him angrily: "What kind of names do you choose? Does this sound like a real name? It's so ugly."
Jiang Baohai coughed twice and said, "Then you take it, you take it."
Gao Qinghe said, "When my dad left at noon, he said he had thought of a name for the child, Qiyue. Qi means beginning, creation, and Yue means joy and happiness. It sounds the same as July, and since we were born at the beginning of July, we'll be happy from the beginning until old age. What do you think?"
"Qiyue, Jiang Qiyue..."
The more Jiang Baohai pronounced the name, the smoother it became, and he thought it was a really good name.
He tapped his daughter's nose and said, "From now on, your name will be Jiang Qiyue. Remember that?"
"She can't even speak, how can you expect her to remember?"
"You'll know if you call me a few more times, right, Jiang Qiyue?"
Gao Qinghe looked at her husband doubtfully. Is this possible?
"Qi Yue, mommy's little Qi Yue..." She couldn't help but call her daughter's name over and over again.
The couple smiled at each other, and bubbles of happiness filled the small three-person ward.
