Chapter 68 Everyone has their own destiny
After learning that Liu Ping would not be out for a while, Cui Yingxiong breathed a sigh of relief and turned around to look at his son.
The little child was red like a monkey, but at a glance, it was clear that he looked exactly like Cui Yingxiong.
"So ugly." As soon as Cui Yingxiong said this, Cui Xiongnian slapped him, and Liang Xiaoying rolled her eyes at him.
"You were so ugly when you were just born." She was unhappy and stabbed Cui Yingxiong in the heart.
Seeing this, Cui Yingxiong touched his head and dared not say anything.
Soon, Liu Ping, who looked pale, was also pushed out, and the Cui family followed the nurse to the ward.
The ward was a three-person room, which was the best ward that could be vacated.
It wouldn't take long, and he could go home after a night of observation, so it was okay to make do with it.
Liu Ping looked at the child for a while, and fell asleep because she couldn't stand the tiredness.
Seeing that she fell asleep, everyone lowered their voices. Cui Xue thought that there was basically nothing serious, so she told Liang Xiaoying and she went back to cook and bring it over.
It was early in the morning and everyone went out without eating.
Cui Xiongnian knew about it and said that he would go out to buy something to fill his parents' stomachs.
They did not refuse. After all, it would take Cui Xue a lot of time to ride a bicycle back and forth, and it would also take a lot of time to cook. They were hungry at the moment and could not wait.
Besides, Cui Xue went back mainly to cook for Liu Ping.
Confinement meals are very important and cannot be sloppy.
Cui Xue rode her bicycle back home in a hurry. She did not listen to Liang Xiaoying's instructions to stew chicken soup. Instead, she took some lean meat and vegetables to cook a clear soup, and also cooked some millet porridge that is easy to digest.
Of course, fearing that Liu Ping would not be full, she also made white bread for her. After thinking about it, she decided to kill a fish that had been raised for a long time and steam it in a pot.
It was already an hour after the meal was ready. After she packed the food, she hurried to the bathroom.
When she arrived at the ward, Liu Ping just woke up.
Cui Xue put out the food, and a woman in labor was pushed into the ward, followed by the woman's husband and mother-in-law.
The mother-in-law kept talking, complaining that the woman had given birth to a useless daughter, accompanied by some insults.
The nurse who came with her couldn't stand it anymore, so she said sternly that this was a ward and quiet, and not to disturb others' rest.
Seeing the nurse so fierce, the mother-in-law choked.
The nurse rolled her eyes at them, turned around and left.
"Did you see that? If we hadn't given birth to a girl, would people look down on us so much?"
Such a weird remark attracted the attention of the Cui family, and they all looked over.
As if noticing them, the mother-in-law turned around and looked at them. Seeing that they were dressed neatly, she smiled.
"You also gave birth to a baby today? Is it a boy or a girl?"
Liang Xiaoying was impatient to talk to such a sarcastic mother-in-law, but out of politeness she still smiled and replied: "Boy."
"Oh, a boy is good. Your daughter-in-law is blessed at first glance. Is it the first child?"
Unexpectedly, she became excited as soon as she heard it, and kept talking enthusiastically.
"Yes, that's right."
"Oh, that's great, you gave birth to a boy, unlike my daughter-in-law, I took good care of her, but she gave me a girl, she's so useless."
Cui Xue couldn't stand it anymore, and turned away with a cold face.
"Auntie, your idea is not good, great people say that women can hold up half the sky, what you said is that you are disgusted with your daughter-in-law for giving birth to a girl, what's the matter? Do you think the great man is wrong? Or is this child not your granddaughter? You are so disgusted, are you a stepmother?"
"Bah! What are you talking about, little girl!" The mother-in-law exploded when she heard Cui Xue's words.
"What's wrong with me? I'm also a high school graduate. I make as much money as my parents do. Who in the village doesn't give face to our family? Tell me, is my girl useful? Do people look down on me?"
If her parents weren't there, Cui Xue would have wanted to say something harsher, but she thought better of it, lest her parents talk to her.
Cui Xue's words made the mother-in-law so angry that her face turned red. Just when she wanted to open her mouth to retort, she was pulled away by her son.
After the two went out, the child suddenly cried, and the daughter-in-law, who was lying on the bed, wanted to get up and hug the child with red eyes.
Unfortunately, she had just given birth and was exhausted, so she had no strength at all.
Cui Xue couldn't bear it, so she walked over, picked up the child and put it next to her.
"Thank you." After saying thank you in a low voice, she began to coax the child clumsily.
It was then that Cui Xue realized that her daughter-in-law was quite young. She looked to be in her early eighteens, or even younger.
Thinking of her husband who had just left, who looked at least a generation older than her, Cui Xue suddenly felt angry.
She wanted to say something to her, but the husband came back. Cui Xue glanced at him, said nothing, and turned back to her bed.
It was unknown what the husband said, and soon the uncontrollable sobbing sounded in the ward.
Cui Xue took a look, and then went to see her little nephew.
After dinner, Liu Ping tried to feed the child. Cui Xiongnian avoided her and asked the nurse for a screen.
The toilet in the town was quite rudimentary, with no curtains to block the view, and the husband next door didn't know how to avoid suspicion.
When he heard Liang Xiaoying urging Liu Ping to breastfeed, he would turn his eyes over from time to time. After Cui Xiongnian found out, he went to the nurse to ask for a screen.
The screen was placed between the two beds, separating a small space, which made Liu Ping relax a lot.
"I'll sit at the door, and call me if you have anything." Cui Xiongnian said to them before he left.
Cui Xue had packed up the dishes and was about to take them out to rinse them. When she turned around the screen, she saw Cui Xiongnian found a small stool from somewhere and sat next to the door of the ward, facing the couple in the next bed.
Resisting the urge to laugh out loud, Cui Xue walked over and asked him if he wanted to buy him a newspaper.
Cui Xiongnian shook his head quickly, "I have to go back later. I asked your uncle Dong to help look after the fields this morning, and I don't know how he is doing now."
Seeing that he was concerned about the village, Cui Xue did not say much. She went out to wash the dishes and let him go back.
Liu Ping had good nutrition during her pregnancy, and she had rested after giving birth, so her milk started to come.
The baby couldn't eat much after being born, and fell asleep again after a while.
Liang Xiaoying put the sleeping child in the crib, asked Cui Yingxiong to look after his wife and children, and then she took Cui Xue away under the pretext of going out to buy something.
"Xue'er, don't get too involved in the affairs of the family next door. Everyone has their own destiny. If you get involved, you may accidentally create karma with others, which will be troublesome."
Seeing that Cui Xue wanted to persuade the woman in labor, Liang Xiaoying took her and spoke earnestly as soon as she left the ward.
