Lin Xiaoxiao turned her head and gave him a quick kiss on the cheek, saying, "Honey, you've had a tough time these past few days."
Taking care of her and also looking after An'an, this man has been busy for the past month, seemingly without a moment's rest.
An'an is a well-behaved baby, but she cries every night when she's hungry or needs a diaper change. The quick-witted Qin Yushen always picks her up as soon as she cries for the first time, trying not to disturb her rest.
Making him formula, changing his diapers, soothing him to sleep...
This happens two or three times a night, and I wake up with dark circles under my eyes the next day because I don't get enough sleep.
Even the most physically fit person can't withstand it.
Even though Wen Mo and Wen Shiyu said that since the child could drink formula, they could take care of him at night so that Qin Yushen could get a good rest for a few days.
But Qin Yushen said it was his responsibility, and he was mentally prepared for it the day he chose to become a father.
He was already very grateful that Wen Mo and Wen Shiyu could lend him a hand during the day, and it would be wrong of him to trouble his parents-in-law at night.
And so, I got through each day like that.
Not a single complaint was uttered.
When he was very tired, he would just hold Lin Xiaoxiao and rest quietly.
An'an is also a baby who knows how to provide emotional value to her father. A cute and innocent smile can revive Qin Yushen.
Qin Yushen shook his head, his cool eyes always carrying a captivating affection and tenderness when he looked at her. "It's not hard work, it's all what I should do."
He always felt guilty towards Lin Xiaoxiao.
After Lin Xiaoxiao finishes her postpartum confinement, he will also have to return to his unit. There are always endless things to do in the army. If there is an emergency mission, he will be gone for more than half a month, and sometimes he won't be able to come back for half a year.
Lin Xiaoxiao had to handle all the big and small matters at home by herself.
Now that An'an is here, Lin Xiaoxiao takes care of him for even longer when he's not home.
Compared to this, what is his hard work over the past month?
Lin Xiaoxiao rested her head on his shoulder and sighed, "Luckily, our An'an is relatively easy to take care of."
She had seen some children who would cry for no reason, and the sound was like a stereo being turned on; once they started crying, they wouldn't stop.
And then there are the men who act like they're dead, not offering a helping hand even when the baby is crying loudly and the mother is in her postpartum period and on the verge of a mental breakdown.
Lin Xiaoxiao affectionately nuzzled Qin Yushen's face, her voice soft and sweet, "Husband, you're the best."
Qin Yushen's lips curled up; he was overjoyed.
He couldn't help but put his arm around Lin Xiaoxiao's waist and kiss her.
After lunch, Wen Shiyu and her uncle went back for a nap, Lin Xiaoxiao took a stroll in the living room, and Qin Yushen held An'an and coaxed her to sleep.
Just then, the phone rang.
Lin Xiaoxiao walked over and answered, "Hello?"
After a moment of silence, Lin Xiaoxiao asked, "When will you arrive?", after not knowing what the person on the other end of the phone said.
Qin Yushen carried An'an over, his eyes questioning.
Lin Xiaoxiao mouthed to him, "Your mom."
"Okay, I'll talk to him."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Xiaoxiao helplessly spread her hands, "Your mother will arrive in Beijing at nine o'clock tomorrow morning. She wants you to pick her up at the train station."
He Meng is quite an interesting person. Even though Qin Yushen ignores her, she still insists on continuing to associate with her eldest son's family. When she heard that it was her grandson's full-month celebration tomorrow, she rushed over excitedly.
I don't know what I'm after.
"She's all alone?" Qin Yushen gently patted his son's back. An'an was getting sleepy, with one eye closed and the other half open, half-asleep.
At this moment, you must not let go; if you do, you will immediately regain consciousness.
We have to wait until he enters a deep sleep before we can put him on the bed.
Lin Xiaoxiao held a small fan and gently fanned herself. "Judging from her tone, I'm afraid she's not the only one."
Qin Yu understood perfectly.
"Okay, I'll pick them up tomorrow and take them to the guesthouse."
Seeing that he understood her meaning, Lin Xiaoxiao nodded in satisfaction.
If only He Meng came, Lin Xiaoxiao would be willing to let her stay at home, after all, He Meng is her mother-in-law.
But He Meng didn't come alone; she was always accompanied by either Zhao Yu or Zhao Yu's wife, Zhou Mingmei.
She wouldn't agree to that.
The next day, Qin Yushen left early in the morning, and Lin Xiaoxiao knew he was going to pick someone up.
I went to bed early last night, so I woke up two hours earlier today.
After feeding An'an his morning milk, taking him out for a sunbath, and playing with him for a while, Qin Yushen returned, expressionless, making it impossible to discern his thoughts and emotions.
Two people followed behind him were He Meng and Zhou Mingmei.
The two men were not carrying any bags, presumably they had been settled in a guesthouse, and their expressions were rather unpleasant.
Upon seeing Lin Xiaoxiao sitting in the pavilion, He Meng immediately questioned, "Did you ask my son to take us to the guesthouse?"
Zhou Mingmei frowned as she looked at Lin Xiaoxiao, whose face was fair and delicate and who looked very well-fed.
"What's wrong with the guesthouse?" Lin Xiaoxiao asked, puzzled. "We can't stay there?"
Qin Yushen washed his hands, then came over to look at his son lying in the portable crib, and said calmly, "Ignore her."
He Meng was so angry her nose almost crooked. "Yu Shen, I'm your mother. I came to Beijing to see you, and you actually made me stay in a guesthouse."
Is there not enough room in such a big yard?
Sending her, her own mother, to stay in a guesthouse is an insult to her.
Lin Xiaoxiao glanced at Zhou Mingmei, "There are too many of you, the house can't accommodate everyone."
She had discussed it with her parents, and they decided that Ah Ming would stay with her for two days and then go to stay with her parents for two days, so that he could have his turn both ways.
Those who live in the same courtyard are all very close family members.
She didn't want to let He Meng and Zhou Mingmei in.
“How could there not be enough room?” He Meng said, disbelieving.
Lin Xiaoxiao was too lazy to explain to her and asked directly, "What is Mom doing in Beijing?"
He Meng snorted, "If it weren't for the fact that you gave birth to a son for Yu Shen, I wouldn't have let this matter go so easily. What are you doing in Beijing? Of course, I'm here to see my grandson."
Lin Xiaoxiao laughed, "I called you Mom, and you really think you're something special? I gave birth to your son, and even if I don't let you see him, you can't do anything to me. Since you're here, you're welcome, but Mom had better not cause any trouble. You know I don't have a good temper."
He Meng was taken aback by her tone.
He Meng felt embarrassed after being humiliated like that in front of her younger daughter-in-law.
"Yu Shen, look at your wife..."
Qin Yushen didn't even glance at her, his voice extremely cold, "If you like grandchildren, let Zhao Yu give you one. My wife doesn't need your opinions."
He Meng pointed at him, "You..."
Zhou Mingmei tugged at her, and He Meng finally came to her senses, withdrawing her hand. "Forget it, I, as your mother, won't hold it against you."
"Let me see my precious grandson."
