Chapter 440 The Big Boss and the Second
After the cold wave passed through Binhai, the temperature dropped to minus five degrees Celsius at six in the morning.
This is rare cold weather for Binhai.
When Yu Zhiming got up and walked into the living room, he felt a warmth enveloping him.
Unlike the bedroom, the oil-filled electric heater in the living room is on all night.
The oil-filled electric heater also makes a slight noise when it is working. At least, Yu Zhiming can hear it quite clearly.
So, he always turns off the electric heater in his bedroom before going to bed.
Yu Zhiming went straight to the sofa bed and noticed that Qingning's eyelashes moved slightly and her breathing also changed in intensity.
He knew that this guy was pretending to be asleep.
Yu Zhiming did not expose her and measured her temperature with the palm of his hand.
The results of the investigation were good, and Qingning's body temperature finally returned to normal.
"The temperature is normal!"
"Qing Ning, stop pretending to be asleep and get up quickly. Wait for me to wash up and then we can do some aerobics together."
"And Fourth Sister, don't stay in bed either."
Yu Zhiming gave his fourth sister some advice, pinched Qingning's cheek, and went to the bathroom to relieve himself and wash up.
More than ten minutes later, Yu Zhiming came out of the bathroom and saw Qingning wrapped in a quilt, squatting on the sofa bed.
"Zhiming, I'm still a little weak and uncomfortable. I need to rest and can't exercise."
The little girl made a sweet excuse and took out her cell phone and waved it at Yu Zhiming.
She chuckled and said, "Let me tell you something funny."
"A distant cousin of mine who lives in my hometown sent a request for help in the family group early this morning."
"Ask how to tell the size of twins."
"What do you mean?" Yu Zhiming was a little confused.
Gu Qingning chuckled and said, "This guy has a pair of twin sons, both three months old."
"Last night, I gave my two sons a bath."
"He and his wife got confused for a moment and didn't know who was the eldest and who was the second."
Yu Xiangwan, who was tidying up the flip bed, interrupted and said with a smile, "For something like this, do you still need help? Since you can't tell them apart, just randomly appoint someone as the boss."
"The child is so young, only three months old, he has no memory of this at all. It doesn't matter who is the eldest."
Gu Qingning said seriously, "Sister, this kind of thing can't be handled casually."
"One is one, two is two!"
"Because of their different positions, the eldest and second oldest children will have very different personalities when they grow up."
"We should strictly follow the birth order determined by nature to determine their seniority."
"Instead of us randomly designating it, that would be too unfair to the boss."
Gu Qingning gave another example, explaining, "If it were in ancient times, the difference in status and treatment between the eldest son and the second son would not be measured in miles."
"There is only one heir to the throne and the family."
"The decision of the eldest and second-in-command must be unambiguous."
Yu Xiangwan was a little dissatisfied with what she said, but did not continue to argue with Gu Qingning about it.
Gu Qingning shook her phone again and continued, "My cousin and his wife basically didn't sleep all night, just thinking of various ways to determine who is the boss."
"But now, they are completely confused and are becoming increasingly uncertain and unsure."
Yu Zhiming said happily, "It seems that this couple takes very good care of their child."
"After three months of raising them, if you still can't tell who's who at a glance, that's really unacceptable."
Gu Qingning rolled her eyes at him and said, "Zhiming, stop making sarcastic remarks. Just tell me what you can do."
Yu Zhiming shook his head and said, "Even the biological parents couldn't recognize him, so there's nothing anyone else can do."
"Now that there's no heir to the throne, why not just do as my sister said and appoint a child to be the eldest."
"However, it has a fifty percent accuracy rate."
Yu Xiangwan continued, "That's right, times have changed. It's not good to be too serious about some things."
"I know that for many twins born by Caesarean section, it's not the doctor who decides who comes out first."
Yu Zhiming echoed, "Indeed."
"When doing a C-section for twins, the doctor reaches in and takes out whichever one is more convenient first."
He added, "I do know that if a baby is pregnant with twins, some parents will specifically tell the doctor to let the older sister come out first, or the older brother come out first."
Gu Qingning pointed at the Yu siblings and asked, "Was your relationship as siblings specially arranged by your parents?"
Yu Zhiming reached out and flicked the guy on the forehead.
"My mother had a natural birth."
He then explained, "Qingning, let me tell you, if it's fraternal twins, the first fertilized egg will usually implant in the upper part of the uterus, and the second fertilized egg will implant in the lower part of the uterus."
"If it's a natural birth, the second baby will come out first."
Gu Qingning snorted softly, "This is a matter of setting and enforcing standards. In our country, the standard that is enforced is that the child born first is the most important."
Yu Zhiming reached out and rubbed Qingning's head.
He suddenly thought of something and said, "Qing Ning, your cousin has recorded a video of the child before, right?"
"If there is a recording of their crying, laughing, or other sounds, I can tell them apart based on the sound."
Gu Qingning jumped up and said, "Oh, my brain was not thinking clearly for a moment. I forgot that you have an extremely high ability to distinguish sounds."
"I'll tell my cousin right now..."
After Yu Zhiming finished his aerobics, Gu Qingning had also communicated with her distant cousin and his wife.
The four of them started a video call in the bedroom.
A man with an unshaven beard, red eyes and a slicked-back haircut, and a woman with a high ponytail appeared in the video.
"Doctor Yu, Qing Ning, hello!"
"Sorry to bother you so early in the morning."
The man with the slicked-back hair said politely, picked up his phone and said, "This is a video I recorded when my eldest child was just born. His cry was loud and full of energy."
After he finished speaking, the loud cry of a baby echoed clearly in the bedroom through the connected phone.
Yu Zhiming got a headache as a conditioned reflex.
To him, the crying of a child is no less than a weapon of mass destruction.
"Okay, okay, that's enough!" Yu Zhiming quickly stopped him.
After the child's crying stopped, he urged again, "You can make a child cry."
After the camera shook for a while, Yu Zhiming saw two babies lying side by side on the bed, sleeping soundly on the connected mobile phone screen.
The child looks fair and clean, very cute.
"So beautiful." Qing Ning praised from the bottom of her heart.
The next moment, Yu Zhiming heard the couple's faint conversation coming from the phone.
"Come here!"
"You should come!"
"I'm your biological father, I can't bear to let him go!"
"I'm not a stepmother, so why should I be willing to do that?"
"Then, rock-paper-scissors?"
"Alright! One round to decide the winner!"
After two rounds of rock-paper-scissors, Yu Zhiming saw a big hand twisting the child's face on the left.
The next moment, the loud crying sounded again.
Yu Zhiming endured the headache and shouted, "Okay, okay, this is the second child, not the eldest child!"
As soon as he finished speaking, another cry was heard.
Apparently, another child was woken up.
Hearing the child's cry, Yu Zhiming ignored his headache and hurriedly asked loudly, "Are you sure that the sound played earlier was the cry of your eldest child?"
The screen shook again, and at the same time, the crying of the two children became much quieter.
Obviously, cell phones are kept away from children's bedrooms.
Immediately afterwards, the head of the man with slicked-back hair appeared on the screen.
"I can confirm that this is the cry that was recorded when my eldest child was just born."
"Doctor Yu, is there something wrong?"
Yu Zhiming said slowly: "I can confirm that the crying sound just now does not match the crying of your two children."
He then quickly explained: "Or maybe the crying sound I recorded earlier was recorded wrong."
"Or maybe your eldest son's vocal organs have undergone some major physiological changes."
The voice of the man with slicked-back hair came from the phone, "Doctor Yu, what do you mean..."
"Either my two sons were taken away by mistake, or is there something wrong with my eldest son's vocal organs?"
Yu Zhiming replied cautiously, "I'm just making this analysis and inference based on the inconsistency of the voices. It may not be accurate."
The man with slicked-back hair on the screen said seriously, "Doctor Yu, I've heard of your abilities for a long time."
"Your inference is likely correct."
"But it's impossible for the son to be taken away by mistake."
The man with slicked-back hair said with certainty, "We are staying at the best maternity center in our area."
"Since the two children were born, they have never left their parents' side. There is no possibility of them being taken away by mistake."
"That's the lesion?"
"Doctor Yu, what could be the disease?"
Yu Zhiming replied softly, "There are many possibilities. It's hard for me to make an accurate judgment based on this sound alone."
"Take the child to the hospital for a checkup..."
Yu Zhiming ended the video call and Gu Qingning's voice rang in his ears.
"Zhiming, is it true that the child wasn't stolen?"
Yu Zhiming reached out and tapped the tip of the guy's nose, saying, "The possibility of this is extremely small."
"As long as it's a regular hospital, the management of newborns is very strict. The possibility of wrongly taking or secretly switching babies is very small."
"It's likely that there have been physiological changes in the vocal organs."
Yu Zhiming criticized himself again: "Of course, I can't rule out the possibility that I heard it wrong."
Gu Qingning confidently maintained, "Whether it's disease diagnosis or voice recognition, you haven't made a mistake yet."
"This time, you will be no exception."
She prayed again, "I hope it's just a minor illness. The baby is only three months old. I can't let him suffer too much..."
During lunch time, Yu Zhiming received a call from Qing Ning.
"It is clear that it is a disease of the vocal organs."
"My cousin said that he found an abnormal bulge in the child's throat."
"The specific situation needs further investigation."
