Xiao Erbao, who was barking and pursing like a puppy, stopped immediately upon hearing the warning. He pursed his lips and then continued sucking, but this time he was much gentler, which made Gu An'an laugh.
"Looks like I'll just leave this brat to my sister to manage from now on."
"That's right. We can't even get through to him. His sister just has to call him a couple of times and he'll listen to her. Honestly, I've never seen such a smart kid in my life."
If the first time after leaving the operating room could be a coincidence, then the fact that it happened twice more now makes it impossible for the village chief's wife to believe it's a coincidence.
Since it's not a coincidence, it must be because my own child is smart.
Gu An'an certainly felt that her own children were the best, but she still wanted to be humble. "Auntie, you're praising them too much. They're just newborns, how could they be so smart?"
"Yes, I think these two kids are incredibly smart, just like you and Aheng. They're sure to be outstanding."
Xiao Lao Er listened to these words of praise and felt quite pleased with himself. It seemed that listening to his sister wasn't entirely without its benefits. Didn't this make him look smart?
Gu An'an: ......My little second child, you really are useless at everything, but you're number one at self-pranking.
When Xiao's mother brought over a nutritious breakfast, the two children had already finished their first meal and were fast asleep.
After hearing everyone talk about the interesting chemistry between the two children, Xiao's mother exclaimed that it was a pity that she, as the grandmother, had missed it.
Gu An'an's delivery went smoothly, so naturally there was less damage to her body.
Although the two children are twins, they are well-nourished and no different from singletons. In fact, some singletons who don't get enough nutrition don't grow as well as the twins.
Therefore, after staying in the hospital for only two days and confirming that both the mother and child were fine, Gu An'an and her two children went home.
As soon as this person returned home, all the neighbors came to his door with gifts, wanting to see what the Xiao family's twins looked like.
"Oh my, An'an, you're really good at having children. Both of your kids have inherited the best features from you. Aren't they the kind of lucky babies that the old folks always talk about?"
Liu Li was originally quite satisfied with her son Dunzi's appearance, but after seeing the two from the Xiao family, she felt that her son was just average-looking.
Dunzi, who was looking at his younger siblings with curiosity, had no idea that his dear mother was already disliking him.
"Sister-in-law, what are you saying? These two children haven't fully grown up yet, who knows what they'll be like in the future."
"Don't worry about that. As long as either of you is like them, these two kids won't be too bad."
After Liu Li arrived, Aunt Zhang, Aunt Zhou, and other people from the family compound came, but they only spent a short time looking after the baby. After all, the baby was a newborn and was quite vulnerable in all aspects, so it was not advisable for him to have too much contact with strangers at this time.
Of course, Gu An'an was actually at ease with the two little ones, but it's always good to be cautious in this kind of thing.
Another thing, I don’t know if it’s just Gu An’an’s imagination, but it seems like these two kids can decide who they’re closer to, and they always smile sweeter at Liu Li, Aunt Zhang, and Aunt Zhou.
Actually, she wasn't wrong. These two kids are picky about who they treat. They can sense who is genuinely kind to them and who is just trying to save face, so of course their smiles will be different.
"Mom, what did Dad say when you called home today?"
The three of them were so busy in the first two days after the baby was born that they forgot to call home to share the good news. It wasn't until Gu An'an asked about it that they remembered.
“Your dad only called to tell me three days after the baby was born. He almost got into a fight with me on the phone. He even asked me to take a couple of pictures of the baby and send them back to him when I had time. The baby is only a few days old. How can I take him out to take pictures? I told him to wait patiently.”
“I also called the village. When they heard that you had given birth to twins safely, everyone rushed over to answer the phone. They all said they wanted to send you things, but we have more than we can eat or use. So I told them not to send anything.”
“Sigh, if it were before, your grandparents would definitely have bought two strings of firecrackers to set off, but we should keep a low profile now.”
Gu An'an understands that every era has its own rules for survival. She doesn't have the power to break them, so she can only live well within the rules, especially for a family like theirs.
Although they have many friends and many people support them, there are still people behind the scenes who want to bring them down. Being cautious is perfectly fine.
"Making the most of our lives quietly is more important than anything else."
"Yes! Living your own life well is more important than anything else."
Xiao's mother liked her very much. Even after having two children, her attitude towards them remained the same. She never had the idea of showing off her power at home just because she was pregnant.
She had no idea what incredible luck she had to find such a wonderful daughter-in-law.
"Don't worry about anything lately, just focus on your postpartum recovery. You've had twins, and although the two little ones are less troublesome, they've definitely taken a toll on your health. So, you'll have a double postpartum period this time. Leave the babies to me and your aunt; you don't need to worry about them."
As soon as she finished speaking, Gu An'an couldn't control the expression on her face.
After being restricted from moving around, she thought it would only be a month, and she could just bear with it.
But now it's gone from one month to two months! She can't even imagine what she'll become after lying in bed for two months. Her limbs will probably degenerate from lying there!
"Mom, I really didn't suffer. A month was enough."
"No, if you don't take good care of yourself during your postpartum period, you'll get postpartum illnesses later, and you won't be able to recover by then."
Gu An'an and Xiao Ma argued their case, and the old lady finally relented and said she would see how things went.
When Xiao Yuheng got home from get off work, Gu An'an quietly told him about it.
"What am I going to do! I don't even know how I'm going to get through a month. If it gets any longer, I feel like I'm going to go crazy!"
Xiao Yuheng patted her head and said, "Don't worry, leave this to me."
I don't know what Xiao Yuheng said, but afterwards neither Xiao's mother nor Xiao's aunt mentioned how long the postpartum period had to be. They agreed that as long as the doctor said the postpartum care was complete, it would be fine.
However, the two firmly opposed Gu An'an's desire to wash her hair every two days.
"Mom, my head is itchy."
"That doesn't mean once every two days, at most once a week."
Finally, after Gu An'an's bargaining, the hair washing time was set at once every four days. The house was warm with a heated kang bed, and Xiao Yuheng, the hair dryer, would dry the hair after washing.
"Honey, what do you think of my cooking?"
"Yes, Mr. Xiao, do you offer membership cards here?"
