Since the baby had received sufficient nutrition during pregnancy, it was fine to leave the baby with the mother. Therefore, Ma Dahua and Qin Feng took the baby back to the ward first, while Su Lu and Qin Ye stayed put and waited for Qin Xiaoxiao to come out of the delivery room.
After waiting for quite a while, Qin Xiaoxiao was finally wheeled out by Mu Jin and the nurse. Su Lu quickly stepped forward to stand beside Qin Xiaoxiao and help push the cart.
Seeing Qin Xiaoxiao's eyes tightly closed, Su Lu felt a little panicked, but seeing Mu Jin's relaxed expression, he didn't ask. When they got to the ward, he couldn't wait to lean close to Qin Xiaoxiao's ear and whisper her name.
"Xiaoxiao? How are you? Can you say something to me?"
Su Lu was uncertain, and her voice was trembling with tears.
Qin Xiaoxiao was resting when she heard Su Lu's voice sounded off, so she quickly opened her eyes.
When Su Lu saw that Qin Xiaoxiao had opened her eyes, his eyes immediately reddened, and he held Qin Xiaoxiao's hand tightly and wouldn't let go.
"Xiaoxiao, you're finally awake! Waaah... You scared me to death! Waaah... It was so terrifying! The old folks in the village said that childbirth is incredibly painful and you can't help but scream, but I didn't hear you scream at all. I thought... Waaah, honey, can we not have this baby? Just this one, two kids are enough."
Qin Xiaoxiao looked at Su Lu with surprise, feeling an indescribable sense of relief.
How many men in this world truly care about you? Your father might be one, your child another, but your husband… well, it's not certain!
A person who cherishes and pampers you is definitely in true love!
Never before had Qin Xiaoxiao felt so deeply that Su Lu loved her more than he loved himself. She couldn't help but wonder if Su Lu would agree to give his life for hers.
Qin Xiaoxiao didn't ask, but she could tell from the way Su Lu looked at her that if that day ever came, Su Lu would definitely do it, sacrificing his own life to save her.
"I'm fine, just a little tired. Speak softly and let me sleep for a while."
Seeing that Qin Xiaoxiao was indeed alright, Su Lu breathed a sigh of relief and quickly nodded repeatedly, telling Qin Xiaoxiao to close her eyes and rest.
Seeing that Qin Xiaoxiao was alright, Su Lu finally had the mind to look at his newborn son.
Turning around, Su Lu saw the Qin family of three staring at him with indescribable expressions, and he couldn't help but touch his face.
Could it be that he became handsome again overnight?
Sigh! Being too good-looking brings a lot of trouble; there are always people who are infatuated with you.
Su Lu put on a stern face, stood up and took the youngest son from Qin Feng's arms. When he saw the wrinkled little boy, Su Lu's brows furrowed so deeply they looked like centipedes.
"Is he really that ugly? Are you sure it's my son and Xiaoxiao's? Or did a monkey go into the delivery room, take its own offspring, and swap it for my son?"
Ma Dahua, Qin Feng, and Qin Ye, a family of three, couldn't help but roll their eyes in unison.
The delivery room only has one door and no windows. How could a monkey possibly run into the delivery room right under the noses of so many people?
Most fathers dislike their daughters, but this one is the opposite. He treats his daughter like a treasure, while he despises his son and even complains that she's ugly, even though she's clearly very pretty!
Ma Dahua had seen so many newborn babies, but she had never seen any better looking than Su Lu and Qin Xiaoxiao's children. Qin Xiaoxiao raised them well; although they were twins, their skin was almost as smooth and tender as that of a one-month-old baby, making one want to touch it.
The two children are fair-skinned, with shiny black hair, and they move their hands and feet with great strength. They don't cry or fuss, and they are very adaptable. Where can you find such worry-free children?
Su Lu was frowning and glaring at his son when Qin Feng spoke up at the opportune moment.
"You've named your daughter, now you should name your son too."
Su Lu looked disgusted. "Let Xiao Xiao choose the name. I won't choose this one. We should give Xiao Xiao, as her mother, a chance to name the child."
Qin Feng and the other two rolled their eyes in unison.
To put it bluntly, it's still about disdain.
After Su Lu finished speaking, he placed his son next to Qin Xiaoxiao, and then looked happily at Qin Chenxi in Ma Dahua's arms.
"Grandma, let me carry you, you can rest for a while."
Ma Dahua really wanted to say she wasn't tired and tell him to go away, but seeing Su Lu's longing gaze at the little girl in his arms, she couldn't bear it and quickly put the child into Su Lu's arms.
Su Lu took the child and held him carefully. His expression was completely different from when he had just held his son. In the first case, he was very afraid of dropping or bumping the child, holding him as if he were holding a bomb. In the second case, he was much more casual, and when he put the child down, he felt as if he had gotten rid of a burden.
"Auntie, when can the baby drink milk?"
Ma Dahua didn't say anything, but turned to look at Mu Jin.
Ma Dahua wasn't unaware of this, but nowadays everyone in the city is into scientifically raising children, so it's more reliable to ask a doctor.
Mu Jin smiled and said, "Half an hour should be enough. Do you have a bottle? You can try giving the baby a little water. If Xiao Xiao has milk, you can breastfeed directly."
Su Lu quickly shook her head, "Let Xiao Xiao breastfeed, we'll use formula."
Putting aside whether the milk supply is enough for the baby, getting up three or four times a night to feed him is already exhausting. The mother won't get enough rest, which could lead to health problems later on. It's not like we can't afford formula, so it's better to use formula. That way, the baby won't have to get up in the middle of the night, and we can feed him as soon as he wakes up.
The four of them were taken aback and exchanged glances.
Why not feed her if you have milk? Do you have so much money you don't know what to do with it?
Other parents are feeding their babies formula, so they should just keep quiet.
Su Lu placed Qin Chenxi on the other side of Qin Xiaoxiao, then opened the bundle he had brought and took out two small baby bottles and a thermos. He then asked Mu Jin for the location of the water room, and turned back to instruct Ma Dahua and the other three to keep a close eye on the children and never let them out of their sight. Only after the four of them agreed did he feel at ease and go out to fetch water.
Su Lu returned shortly afterward. He first cooled some water, and once it had cooled down a bit, he poured it into two baby bottles. He put one of the bottles into Ma Dahua's arms, and then, holding the other bottle, he happily headed straight for Qin Chenxi.
Seeing that Su Lu was already happily feeding Qin Chenxi water, Ma Dahua had no choice but to pick up her youngest son and feed him water as well.
The two children each drank some water, and then Su Lu stopped feeding them and made two bottles of formula for them instead.
I didn't dare to feed too much the first time; I only fed 20 milliliters and then stopped, waiting two hours before feeding again.
Mu Jin looked at Su Lu in surprise, "I didn't expect you to be so knowledgeable. How do you know how much to feed each time?"
Mentioning this, Su Lu immediately became proud, "Xiao Xiao and I often read books at home in the evenings when we have nothing to do, and this is how it's fed according to the instructions in the book."
Mu Jin twitched her lips, not understanding what was so proud of about this.
Mu Jin's attention was quickly drawn back to the two crying children, and she didn't see that Su Lu felt guilty for a moment after he finished speaking, his eyes darting away and avoiding eye contact.
Well, you can't blame him for that. Neither he nor Xiaoxiao like reading. Apart from novels, they can fall into a deep sleep as soon as they pick up any other book. At one point, they used reading as a way to fall asleep, and they would read whenever they couldn't sleep.
