Chapter 223 Extra (2) Daily Life After Marriage
Zhou Songyan stood at the door of the delivery room, anxiously looking inside.
"Where's my wife? Why hasn't she come out yet?"
Nurse: "Mr. Zhou, don't worry, Mrs. Zhou is safe and sound, she'll be out in a little while."
Two minutes later, Li Mai was wheeled out.
Zhou Songyan touched her pale face, his eyes filled with heartache.
"Honey, you've worked hard."
Li Mai forced a smile: "Honey, you've worked hard too."
She knew that Zhou Songyan had also been working very hard lately.
But Zhou Songyan felt that his hard work was nothing at all.
Lima suffered more.
It's easy to imagine that she was pregnant with Chengcheng all alone back then, and she was all alone when she gave birth. She didn't have a proper rest after giving birth before taking care of the child.
How helpless she must have felt at that time.
Zhou Songyan's eyes reddened.
A delicate hand grasped his.
Zhou Songyan lowered his eyes, and Li Mai shook his hand gently, saying softly, "Husband, push me back to the ward."
Zhou Songyan held her hand and squeezed it, tidied the strands of hair that were scattered on her face, and pushed Li Mai back to the ward.
...
A week later, Li Mai and her baby were discharged from the hospital and returned home.
Chengcheng lay down next to the crib and reached out to touch his little sister's hand, but she grabbed his fingers.
Cheng Cheng: "..."
"Daddy, Daddy!"
"Daddy, daddy, daddy!!!"
Hearing his son's exaggerated shouts from the master bedroom, Zhou Songyan thought something had happened and strode over.
When Chengcheng saw him, he immediately smiled and boasted, "Dad, my little sister held my hand!"
Zhou Songyan: "..."
"That's all?"
"Yes, my sister likes me and won't let go of my hand."
Zhou Songyan said in a deep voice, "Mom is resting. You're disturbing her. Go back to your room."
Chengcheng withdrew his hand, glanced at his sister with reluctance, and left the room, turning back every few steps.
"Dad, you didn't lie to me, my little sister is really cute, so soft and cuddly."
Zhou Songyan ignored him and went to the master bedroom to keep Li Mai company.
Li Mai, realizing that Zhou Songyan hadn't been to the company in a long time, said, "You don't need to stay home with me every day, go to the company."
He must have accumulated a lot of work to do.
Zhou Songyan hesitated for a moment before nodding.
"Call me if anything happens at home."
"Um."
...
Zhou Songyan has officially become a father.
I rush home after get off work to feed my son and daughter, change their diapers, and give them a bath.
Despite having a postpartum nanny, Zhou Songyan takes care of the baby herself whenever she has time.
I wasn't very good at it at first, but I got the hang of it after doing it a few times.
Li Mai has finished her postpartum confinement period, but she hasn't changed a single diaper for her son and daughter yet. Zhou Songyan won't let her, and he always insists on doing it himself.
...
Qin Xuan and Peng Zixu hadn't seen Zhou Songyan for a long time. Since Zhou Songyan got married, they had seen him very few times. After Li Mai became pregnant, they couldn't even get him to go out with them.
He thought things would get better after the baby was born, and he wouldn't be so nervous anymore. But after calling several times, Zhou Songyan said he was busy, so the two of them had to come to Rongzheng Group in person.
The first impression the two had upon entering the office was that Zhou Songyan had changed.
Qin Xuan bluntly asked, "Old Zhou, it's been a while, you look so much older!"
Peng Zixu put it more tactfully: "It's not that I'm old, it's just that I look a bit haggard."
Zhou Songyan lifted his eyelids and glanced at them: "What do you know? Once you become a father, you're bound to get old. I'm happy, I'm willing."
Qin Xuan and Peng Zixu: "..."
Qin Xuan noticed a stain on Zhou Songyan's sleeve.
Pointing exaggeratedly, he said, "Old Zhou, what's that on your sleeve?"
Zhou Songyan glanced at it and calmly said, "It's milk my daughter vomited up."
When he left in the morning, the little guy cried, so he picked him up and comforted him.
It was probably put up at that time.
Qin Xuan and Peng Zixu were both surprised.
Zhou Songyan is very clean, even a bit obsessive-compulsive. His clothes are always clean and neat, and his leather shoes are always polished.
When did he ever wear dirty clothes? He can't stand even the slightest dirtiness and has to change them.
Now that her daughter has vomited up her milk, she remains so calm and hasn't even suggested changing it.
Qin Xuan said casually, "Old Zhou, you've become sloppy."
Zhou Songyan didn't even raise his head.
"Dislike it? The door's over there. Goodbye, don't bother coming back."
Qin Xuan: "..."
Peng Zixu felt that Zhou Songyan was particularly down-to-earth and had a much gentler temperament.
...
Before we knew it, the two little ones were already three years old and had started kindergarten.
The first day of school.
The house was in complete chaos.
With his schoolbag on his back, Chengcheng said to Limai, who was looking for things everywhere, "Mom, I'm going to school."
Li Mai then noticed her eldest son, went over and hugged him: "Go on, come home early after school."
"Um."
Chengcheng walked to the door and was hugged by two small hands.
"Brother, I want a hug too."
Chengcheng smiled, turned around and picked up his younger sister.
Are you afraid to go to kindergarten?
The little girl with two braids smiled, revealing two dimples: "I'm not afraid."
"Mimi is so brave, your brother will play with you after school."
"good."
Chengcheng put her down: "Brother is leaving."
Zhou Chengmi waved her little hand: "Goodbye, brother!"
...
Zhou Songyan stood at the bathroom door, glancing at the little boy sitting on the toilet.
"Are you done pulling?"
Zhou Chengan nodded his little head: "I've done it, Daddy will wipe my bottom."
Zhou Songyan took a tissue, patted his little bottom, and then wiped it for him.
"It stinks! You'll have to clean it yourself from now on."
Honestly, this kid even has to squat down to use the toilet before leaving the house.
So much trouble!
Zhou Chengan: "I'm still a baby, I won't."
"If you don't know how, learn it."
"Okay, I'll learn when I'm a little older. Dad, don't be so disgusted with me. You needed someone to wipe your bottom when you were little too."
"roll!"
"Dad, you're so rude! I'm going to tell Mom."
Zhou Songyan patiently wiped his bottom and pulled up his pants.
The little guy ran out, but after only a couple of steps, he fell to the ground with a thud.
Zhou Songyan glanced at him, calmly flushed the toilet, and washed her hands.
Zhou Chengan lay on the ground for a while, and seeing that no one was paying attention to him, he huffed and puffed as he got up.
Li Mai finally found the two children's kindergarten admission cards and tied them to their little backpacks.
"Honey, I'm leaving."
On the first day of school, the couple prepared to take their child to kindergarten together.
Zhou Songyan came out and took the two small schoolbags from Li Mai's hands.
The two little ones attend an international kindergarten not far from home, a five-minute drive away.
At the kindergarten gate.
Zhou Chengmi hugged Li Mai and kissed her, then looked up at Zhou Songyan and said, "Dad, squat down."
Zhou Songyan smiled and squatted down: "What's wrong, baby?"
Zhou Chengmi gave him a quick kiss on the cheek.
He chuckled.
Goodbye, Mom and Dad!
Zhou Songyan is incredibly soft-hearted.
My daughter is so cute!
Seeing his youngest son looking at him, Zhou Songyan reached out and ruffled his hair.
"Take your sister inside, and protect her well."
Zhou Chengan stood tall and said, "Don't worry, I will take good care of my sister."
Li Mai linked arms with Zhou Songyan, watching the two little ones walk hand in hand into the kindergarten.
"Honey, let's go to work too."
"Um."
