Chapter 104
Logically speaking, the second birth should be smoother than the first.
But nothing is absolute, at least not for 葑.
It took more than ten hours from the breaking of water to delivery.
From seven in the morning until after ten at night, loud cries could be heard from the delivery room.
It's a boy.
Just like when Niannian was born, when Hu Xiu saw her grandson for the first time, she said happily: "He looks just like me."
Ruiting fell asleep due to exhaustion, and it was already the next morning when she saw her son clearly.
She held the red-skinned monkey weighing more than 15 pounds and looked left and right, but she couldn't see how much it looked like Huo Xiao.
"Mom, even though my little brother is a little ugly, we all have to like him." Seeing that her mother's expression was a little strange, Niannian, who had come with her grandmother early in the morning, frowned, worried that her little brother was not liked.
Even though she is a younger brother and not the younger sister she was expecting, Niannian is still very happy because she is a older sister now!
Well...even though my brother looks like a red monkey.
After coming back to her senses, she said with a smile, "Don't worry, Mom likes my brother very much, and he's still young, he won't be ugly when he grows up."
After hearing this, he was sure that his mother was serious, and he breathed a sigh of relief like a little adult, making everyone who saw him laugh.
"Give me the child." Huo Xiao bent over, put his son in the cradle, and began to wash towels and help his wife wash.
In fact, Ruiting could have done it herself, but her husband was obviously frightened by how long she had been giving birth yesterday, and he was being particularly clingy at the moment, so she let him help.
After rinsing her mouth and drinking hot water while holding the quilt, Tingting asked again: "Did Miaomiao and Guoguo not come?"
Hu Xiu, who was putting the changed diapers into the bag, smiled and said, "I'm here. Didn't you see how worried they were yesterday? How could I not come?"
Hearing this, thinking of the suffering they had last night, not to mention the children, even Ting Ting felt a little scared: "Where are they?"
Hu Xiu: "I went to the door to pick someone up. Didn't I tell Lao Jiang the good news this morning? He insisted on coming to see..."
Li Ting was stunned for a moment: "Ah? Uncle Jiang is coming? Isn't that too troublesome?"
Hu Xiu: "Who says it's not true? But Lao Jiang treats us as real family and is happy to come. We can't be too unconventional, right?"
"That's right..." Tingting handed the cup to her husband: "The children are waiting for grandpa at the hospital entrance?"
"Yes, judging by the time, it should be almost time." Having said that, Hu Xiu put down the work in his hands, went to the door and looked out. Sure enough, he saw a familiar figure at the end of the corridor.
She turned around first and said happily to her son and daughter-in-law: "They're here, they're here. What a coincidence. Not only Lao Jiang, but Xiaowei and Xiaoyu are here too." As she finished speaking, she still went out to greet them warmly.

After Jiang Kexian arrived at the ward, he was no different from an ordinary elder and first asked a few words about Ruting's condition.
After making sure that everyone was safe, he looked at the little guy on the crib carefully and happily.
After a long while, the old man, who had been rubbing the little hands and feet, said with emotion: "This child is really chubby. He looks like Huo Xiao. Has he been given a name?"
Huo Xiao shook his head: "The name hasn't been decided yet. Miaomiao gave me the nickname Sui Sui."
Jiang Kexian had never thought that his granddaughter would know how to give a name. What made him even happier was that Huo Xiao and Lu Ting not only did not think it was a joke, but also approved of it.
Of course, although Commander Jiang was happy in his heart, he said: "You two are too careless to leave such an important matter as naming to the child. Fortunately, the name is good... Year after year, year after year, it sounds like a brother and sister."
Huo Xiao didn't mind: "I named all three children, but Suishun is more suitable."
At this time, Miaomiao patted her sister's head and pretended to reveal casually: "My parents have always been very generous. I was the one who named Nian Nian. I was only 5 years old at that time." So don't worry that your parents will be unhappy.
Jiang Kexian really didn't know about this before. Besides being surprised, he was more delighted.
After the joy, they could not help but feel grateful again for Huo Xiao and Lu Ting's treatment of the twins as their own...
Due to his busy work and nostalgia for family happiness, Jiang Kexian only stayed for about 20 minutes before leaving in a hurry.
During this period, because the old man was too low-key, no one in the hospital noticed the arrival of this giant Buddha.
And Ruiting, not only did she get a lot of expensive supplements, but she also received a generous red envelope from her master.
After watching the interaction between the two sides and not saying much, Wei and others left and asked helplessly: "Didn't you say you would notify us when the product is ready?"
Ruting was drinking soup. Hearing this, he rolled his eyes at his brother and said, "It was a time of chaos and war. How could I have thought of it?"
Wei was speechless: "So you've been in chaos all day? And you only came to your senses this morning?"
Hearing this, Ruting bared her teeth at the person and said, "You'll know when your second sister-in-law gives birth. I guess your legs will definitely go weak." Although she did not see her husband waiting for her outside the delivery room with her own eyes, she could guess roughly what happened through the retelling of her mother-in-law and children.
Ning Yu, who had just received her marriage certificate and hadn't even held the wedding banquet yet, couldn't stand such topics. She could only try to keep a straight face and go to the cradle to check on the baby.
Seeing her like this, Lu Wei smiled and said, "So your brother-in-law's legs are weak?"
Ruiting choked. Although it was true, she had to protect her man herself: "No! No!"
Wei Wei understood: "Then it is true."
"He...he stood at the door for more than ten hours. Isn't it normal for him to...ahem...stagger a little?"
Oh? Standing there for more than ten hours?... Li Wei looked at his brother-in-law who was wiping his sister's hands, and changed the subject with satisfaction: "Have you informed your parents?"
Having just woken up, without remembering this incident at all, she subconsciously looked at her husband.
Huo Xiao nodded: "I called my eldest brother, and he said he would take a leave today to go home and announce the good news. I, Dong Xiao, Gu Fang... have also announced the good news."
Ruting immediately raised his chin towards his second brother proudly: "My Huo Xiao is the most capable person in doing things!"
"You little bitch!" Seeing that his sister's face was still a little pale but her eyes and eyebrows were lively, Lu Wei, who was completely relieved, stretched out his hand and poked her forehead in annoyance.
Seeing this, Ruting was the first to cover her forehead: "Second sister-in-law, second brother bullied me again!"
Ning Yu turned around and glared at her husband: "Tingting just gave birth, she must still be feeling uncomfortable, can't you give her some time?"
wei wei...

Although I suffered a lot when I was young.
But the day when the little guy came out was particularly good, October 1st.
When he returned home from the hospital on the evening of October 3, it happened to be during the three-day national holiday, so Huo Xiao didn't even need to take a day off.
As for Li Ting, she was lucky in some ways.
For example, no matter which year she was born in or which year she was born in, she never caught up with the hottest season.
Therefore, I had a very comfortable confinement period this time... Strictly speaking, it was more comfortable than the last time.
Because the three children are grown up, the young family members are worried that she will be bored staying at home, so they spend most of their time with her except when she goes to school.
Miaomiao either chats with her mother or draws for her mother and younger brother.
Guoguo mostly plays checkers and gobang with his mother.
Niannian picked up the violin and played for her mother.
There are no secrets in the family compound. Since moving here, Ruiting has been envied by others. Now, she has become the focus of everyone's discussion.
The most talked about topic is the children's filial piety. Which mother can resist such a well-behaved child?
And as a person who is surrounded by everyone, how could she feel that life was tormenting?
Especially the thoughtfulness of the mother-in-law and the gentleness of the husband.
So, when November came and I was officially out of confinement, not only did my complexion look rosy, but my eyes and eyebrows were also full of joy...

After the confinement period, the wedding of Wei and Ning Yu came right after.
On the night three days before the wedding, Tingting started choosing clothes to wear when she went to the train station to pick up her family.
But every time she stood in front of the mirror, she was not very satisfied: "...I have gained more than ten pounds."
Huo Xiao, who was strolling in the room with his son in his arms, came up behind his wife, exchanged glances with his wife in the mirror, and suddenly bent over and bit her cheek: "Where did you get fat? You look so beautiful now."
This is his true feelings. Tingting was too thin before. After gaining some weight, she became soft, pink and chubby with a milky scent. She looks so beautiful.
Of course, now that he has experience, he no longer dares to mention the word "fat" for fear of being punished.
Thinking of this, the man who thought his wife was beautiful everywhere couldn't help it, and lowered his head and took another bite.
1. The...
Feeling annoyed by the bite, Ruting stood on tiptoe, held her husband's cheek, and bit him on the face as well.
Huo Xiao bent his waist to cooperate. After his wife calmed down, he turned his head and looked at himself in the mirror carefully. He said proudly, "It's pretty good."
Knowing that he was talking about the teeth marks on his cheek, Tingting was both angry and amused: "After all these years, why do you still like biting people so much?"
In fact, Huo Xiao didn't know either, he just followed his heart, probably... "I like you too much." He liked you so much that he didn't know what to do, he couldn't control himself, he wanted to kiss, bite, and merge the person into his body.
Just as she was about to change her clothes, she was immediately amused by the man's reason which had not changed in years.
Seeing his wife happy, Huo Xiao was also happy. He put his son in the cradle first, then took out a bundle from the camphorwood box on the other side and said mysteriously, "I bought you new clothes."
Ruiting took it with surprise: "When did you buy it?" As she spoke, she had already opened the package, revealing two sets of clothes inside.
They were two slightly slim-fitting knee-length woolen coats, one red plaid and the other off-white.
The lower body is a half-length winter skirt and a pair of wide-leg trousers.
"Would you like to try it on?" Huo Xiao picked up the red plaid one and handed it to his wife.
Ruting was so excited that she put it on immediately and then changed into the black skirt.
The size of the clothes is suitable for her now.
Needless to say, the style is absolutely fashionable and can be considered a classic even in later generations.
It was obvious that the husband had put a lot of effort into it.
Thinking of this, Ruting happily turned around in front of the mirror, then turned around and hugged her husband's waist, saying coquettishly: "Why are you so nice?"
Huo Xiao bent down and hugged his wife, resting his chin on her shoulder, and asked with a smile: "Do you like it?"
Isn't this nonsense? Although she was complaining in her heart, she gave the highest praise on the surface: "I like it very much. Your taste is getting better and better!"
Huo Xiao was proud: "It's mainly because I have experience."
Li Ting believed this. After being married for so many years, to be honest, half of her clothes were bought by her husband: "When did he buy them? I don't even know."
Huo Xiao: “A few days ago.”
His wife loves beauty, and Huo Xiao doesn't object if she wants to lose weight, but she can't lose weight too extreme.
She wanted to look pretty to meet her family and attend the wedding, so Huo Xiao took advantage of Sunday to go to the Friendship Store.
After being married for many years, even if her husband didn't say anything, Ting Ting roughly guessed his thoughtfulness. She tightened her arms around the man's waist and buried her face in his arms. Her tone was vague, but it contained sincerity: "Brother... It's great to meet you and marry you."
He had never expected his wife to say this. To Huo Xiao, it was just two sets of clothes, but his heart was still out of control and he beat a few times: "...Me too, it's great to meet you and marry you... Then tonight..."
"Ahem...Okay, enough of the hug. I'll try another one." Feeling the changes in her husband's body, Ruiting, who didn't want to tire her hands at all, quickly withdrew from the man's arms.
Huo Xiao...
Facing her husband's somewhat depressed expression, Tingting suppressed a smile: "I think the red suit is more suitable for picking up my parents, and the off-white suit is more suitable for attending the wedding. Brother, what do you think?"
Huo Xiao could see that his wife was being mischievous, so he responded with a good temper, "It's fine. Try the beige color and let me see."
As the words fell, he approached his wife without leaving a trace, then stretched out his long arm and carried the person on his shoulder with one hand.
The unsuspecting Ruting screamed in surprise: "...You are cheating!"
Huo Xiao didn't admit this: "You were the one who provoked me first."
Ruting was even more confused: "I didn't!"
Huo Xiao: "Who just said that it was great to meet me and marry me? You expressed your love so passionately, and I'm not dead."
