When Cao Jingheng heard that mother and child were safe and that they were two baby boys, he felt relieved but also a little dizzy. He really wondered if he had heard it wrong.
Not only him, but the grandparents of the two families, including Shen's mother, were also stunned for a few seconds before they reacted and smiled and said words of gratitude to the little nurse.
Shen Zixi looked at her three younger brothers who were already jumping around in each other's arms, patted her head, and accepted this cruel reality with a smile. Although the elders in the family were also looking forward to Shen Anning's pregnancy adding another little princess to the family, it was just a thought. The family was also mentally prepared for the result of opening a blind box with two sons.
Because they are fraternal twins, the two newborns look almost identical, but if you look closely, you can still find some differences, especially the newborn babies, who are both small, skinny red monkeys! At first glance, they look exactly the same.
Shen An Ning ate and drank well throughout her pregnancy. The two little guys weighed one 5.32 jins and the other 5 jins. The older brother who came out first was a little thinner than the younger brother. After the doctor's examination, there was nothing wrong with the health of the two little guys. If they were fed well in the first few months, they would be able to make up for it quickly.
When Shen Anning, who had gained thirty kilograms, learned that her two sons weighed only ten kilograms in total, she quietly touched the fat on her belly. It was probably unrealistic to want to lose weight during the winter confinement period.
The mother of the two children was carried out by the nurse first. There were many people in the family, and the two grandmothers each held one child and wrapped the child tightly in a small quilt. The families waiting nearby were almost envious. Two babies, three boys. How much virtue must the ancestors have accumulated to exchange for such luck!
However, Cao Jingheng could not hear their thoughts, otherwise he would definitely say that he didn't want this luck at all.
When she was pushed back to the ward, Shen Anning really only had a little consciousness. She fed the two children with her remaining consciousness and then fell into a deep sleep.
Giving birth to two children is a physically demanding task. I looked at my two sons while I was still awake after giving birth, and it was already past two in the morning when I woke up.
After just two hums, the bedside lamp came on. Cao Jingheng was holding a thermos in his hand. He put the things on the bedside table and carefully placed a pillow under Shen Anning's back.
Looking at the bearded man, Shen Anning cleared his throat and asked in a low voice: "Aren't you asleep? Why are your eyes bloodshot?"
"After sleeping for a while, grandma made you some black chicken soup. It's still hot now. I'll feed you some."
Because it was a single ward, the only people in the room at this time were Cao Jingheng and Shen's mother who was resting on another accompanying bed.
After drinking a bowl of soup, I felt much more energetic. I fed the two children some milk. The two little guys were also able to recognize people. They were very well-behaved when they were held by their mother. They didn't forget to smack their lips after drinking milk while lying in their mother's arms.
Looking at his two young sons, Cao Jingheng's heart was too soft. He was destined to have no daughters in this life, but the children were all born by Shen An Ning. He would still be a good father, love them well, train them, and be their strongest backing.
Giving birth to twins is different from giving birth to a single baby. Several doctors in the obstetrics and gynecology department also suggested that Shen Anning stay in the hospital for a few more days, which would also make it easier for the pediatric department to observe the condition of the twins.
Every morning, Peanut and Guazi would accompany a few other ladies to the hospital ward on time. The two little guys would lie beside the twins' cribs, whispering to each other.
The nanny and driver at home bring five or six meals a day to the hospital, so the two little ones just stay here to eat and drink. Anyway, when the weather gets cold, they just stay at home and learn calligraphy with the wives. This kind of mental work can be done anywhere.
At noon, Shen Anning, who had just had her belly rubbed, lay on the bed, feeling the turbulent waves beneath her. She felt uncomfortable even when she moved. When Cao Jingheng arrived, all he saw was his wife pretending to sleep with her eyes closed, and his son and nephew standing on both sides of the bed, chattering.
"Mom, we've thought of a name for my brother. We've thought of many. Do you want to hear them?"
“Aunt, my brother and I thought of this together.”
The two children, Cao Siheng and Shen Zixuan, knew that they definitely couldn't come up with a full name, so they spent the past two days in the ward thinking about all the nicknames they could think of.
Shen An Ning had guessed what was going on when they were whispering to each other, and now she was feeling uncomfortable. She really was not in the mood to discuss with the two children what nicknames to give to their younger brothers.
"Little Peanut, don't you see how miserable your mother is? Take your brother over there and play for a while so that your mother can have a good rest."
Hearing his father's voice, Peanut turned his head and looked, immersed in his own inner world, and didn't notice what his father said at all.
Holding his father's hand excitedly, he said, "Dad, Dad, my brother Zixuan and I have chosen nicknames for our two little brothers. Can you help us pick one?"
"Yes, yes, uncle, we have thought of many."
Hearing the two children say this, Cao Jingheng also became curious. He sat on the stool beside the bed and held the two children on his lap. "Well, then tell me, what names did you give them?"
Small rice cakes, small longans, small watermelons, small, small grapes... Listening to the strings of delicious food being announced, not only did Cao Jingheng have a strange expression on his face, but Shen Anning, who was pretending to be asleep, also blinked with her eyes open.
Are their children's names related to food? Why was Erbao so talented when he was young? He was named Xiaohuasheng, and the following brothers are inseparable from food.
"Well, Dad, what do you think? We should reconsider the name of this little brother. Well, we can wait until the little brothers are older and ask them for their own opinions, right? Otherwise, what if the little brothers don't like the name you two chose in the future?"
It had never occurred to them that their younger brother wouldn't like the name they chose. Cao Siheng and Shen Zixuan looked at their father/uncle with disbelief in their eyes, and uttered a soulful denial, "No, Dad, I really like the name Erbao gave me. And do you like Little Guazi too? During Chinese New Year, roasted melon seeds and peanuts are so delicious, but the wives won't let us eat too much, saying it'll make us get a sore throat."
After arguing for a long time, the nicknames of the two little treasures were finally decided upon under the unreasonable demands of Cao Siheng and Shen Zixuan. Yuanbao and Tangyuan were not so difficult to accept.
On the fourth day after the twins were born, Grandpa Cao readily decided on the names of the two little ones, Cao Sixun and Cao Simo. Grandpa Cao had originally chosen several names for girls, but unfortunately none of them were used in the end.
