Chapter 131 The baby has a name
"Why can't I take a bath during the confinement period?" Taotao asked persistently.
Bai Lili: ...
"She just wouldn't let me! When my mother was taking care of me, she wouldn't let me take a bath. No matter what I said, she wouldn't agree." Bai Lili said.
Taotao pouted, "I told my sister-in-law, but she wouldn't let me... But it's June now, it's so hot, I've been struggling for a whole day and night to give birth to this child, and now I can even smell my own sweat!"
Lili advised her, "Just bear with it, everyone has gone through this."
Tao Tao asked in a low voice: "Third sister, tell me the truth, you really haven't taken a bath in a day?"
Lili also lowered her voice and said, "It's impossible to take a bath, but I wiped it a little with a wet towel..."
"Didn't mom scold you?"
Lili replied: "She doesn't know, I wiped her body when she was not at home. The main thing is, every time when feeding Xiao Mingchan, she would ask me to wipe there with a small towel first, so I asked her, 'Since you can wipe there, why don't you let me wipe other places on my body'..."
Taotao smiled, "What did she say?"
Lili covered her mouth and smiled, whispering, "...She couldn't explain why, so she was very angry. She said this was a tradition passed down for thousands of years or something, and she also said that I always liked to talk back to her. I didn't listen to the old people and suffered the consequences... Anyway, she wanted to scold me for a long time."
"Then I kept silent... Fortunately, she often came to see you, so when she was not at home, I asked your brother-in-law to soak a towel in boiling water, let it dry until it was 60% to 70% hot, and then use it to wipe your body..."
"Of course I don't do this every day. I usually clean it every two or three days. However, when I gave birth to Mingchan, it wasn't as hot as it is now!" said Lili.
Tao Tao made up her mind, "I don't care that I'm too hot and uncomfortable all over, I'm going to find a way to wash myself!"
Lili advised her, "Don't make trouble for your sister-in-law. After all, she is not your biological mother. If you make trouble, it won't be easy to repair the relationship."
Taotao winked playfully, "I won't bother her!"
Lili understood—this little girl was planning to make trouble for Song Zhi!
"Then I won't care about you anymore! Anyway, you are not allowed to say that I said this!" Lili giggled, "Anyway, Song Zhi is under your control. If you tell him to go east, he will never go west..."
Just at this moment, Tan Fenghui brought the nurse over to check Taotao's wound.
After examining her, the nurse said, "Bai Taotao is recovering quite well!"
Taotao made a bitter face and whined, "But it's really itchy! And a little swollen and painful..."
The nurse said, "This is normal. The wound needs to heal. Be patient! It will be fine in a few days." Then she left.
Tan Fenghui looked at Taotao for a while and asked, "Taotao, are you thirsty?"
Taotao nodded, "I am a little thirsty."
"Then I'll pour you some chicken soup!"
Tao Tao's eyes widened in astonishment, "...drink chicken soup when you're thirsty?"
Seeing that her sister-in-law was about to open the insulated lunch box, Taotao quickly stopped her, "Sister-in-law, I just want to drink water! I want to drink boiled water!"
Tan Fenghui glared at her and said, "Nonsense! How can a woman who is in confinement drink boiled water?"
Taotao took a step back, "Then, I'll drink warm water!"
“There’s chicken soup!”
Taotao, "I just want to drink warm water!"
Tan Fenghui sighed, "You really don't know how to appreciate the blessing you have! When we were giving birth to our children in the countryside, we couldn't even drink chicken soup! But you, you refuse to eat even though you have it available!"
Lili smiled and said, "It's too hot today!"
Tan Fenghui shook her head, poured a small half cup of boiling water from the thermos, then poured it into two cups alternately, spending two or three minutes to let the water reach lukewarm temperature before handing it to Taotao.
Taotao finished it in one breath.
The child sleeping next to him closed his eyes and started howling.
Tan Fenghui quickly undressed the baby and checked to make sure that the baby did not poop and was probably hungry. She let Taotao lie on her side, took the baby over and placed him next to Taotao, and instructed Taotao to undress.
Taotao can't do anything.
Anyway, just follow the instructions obediently.
First, he took a clean small towel, dipped it in some boiling water, fanned it a few times until it was slightly cool, and then let Taotao wipe it.
Taotao did as she was told, and then she saw the child exploring in the air for a while with his eyes closed and his mouth pouting... and soon he stuck to her.
Tan Fenghui said anxiously: "Taotao, this is the first time the baby is breastfeeding, please help him!"
"How can I help?" Taotao asked curiously.
Tan Fenghui sighed, "You! You are still a child yourself!" As she said this, she blushed and reached out her hand to pinch Taotao's...
Taotao was startled!
The doll took it in her mouth accurately and sucked it a few times——
Taotao was stunned.
So accurate!
It's so accurate even without opening your eyes!
This, this is... the feeling of breastfeeding? ? ?
The doll sucked for a while with its eyes closed, took two breaths, paused for a while, and continued sucking.
Tan Fenghui was a little worried, "She hasn't eaten yet, so I guess her milk hasn't come in yet! You, I asked you to drink chicken soup just now but you refused! Look, the child is going to be hungry now, right?"
Taotao was stunned.
——She heard every word clearly, but couldn’t understand it when it was put into a sentence.
Does the child have to drink milk flavored with chicken soup to avoid going hungry?
The baby sucked hard, his little face turned red, his hands were clenched into fists, and his whole body was shaking slightly.
Taotao frowned, "Sister-in-law! I, it hurts... He bit me!"
As soon as these words came out——
Not only did Tan Fenghui and Lili laugh, but even the women in labor in the two adjacent beds and their family members who were accompanying them all laughed.
Tan Fenghui smiled and said, "Just bear with the pain! It will be fine after the milk comes in."
Lili also smiled with a red face, "You! You've really been spoiled by Song Zhi... It doesn't hurt that much!"
Taotao really felt pain.
However, after about two or three minutes——
The pain gradually subsided.
The doll's sucking rhythm became steady, accompanied by swallowing sounds from time to time...
Tan Fenghui observed for a while, patted her chest, and breathed a sigh of relief, "Okay, okay, it's all right! The baby will finally have something to eat!"
Taotao widened her eyes again.
She had been a fairy in one life and a human in another, but she had never experienced such a wonderful feeling.
She stared blankly at the red doll, staring at him... Suddenly, a trace of pity arose in her heart, and she whispered: "Okay, even if you are ugly and look like a little monkey... I will still treat you well in the future."
Tan Fenghui and Lili laughed again.
The baby was just born and didn’t have a big appetite. He drank milk for a while and then stopped.
Then he twisted his body and babbled.
Tan Fenghui picked up the child swiftly and took out the feces and urine...
Taotao was stunned again.
Wow! My sister-in-law is really experienced! How does she know that the baby is going to pee or poop? ? ?
Tan Fenghui took good care of the child, then took a clean towel, dipped it in boiling water and fanned it to cool it down a little, wiped the child's butt clean, and let him lie in the cradle again.
The doll fell asleep.
Taotao praised: "Sister-in-law, you are so amazing..."
Tan Fenghui smiled and said, "I'm here, so you can rest assured and take care of yourself during the confinement period! After the confinement period is over, you and Song Zhi will have to learn how to take care of a child!"
"I'm responsible for feeding the baby! He's responsible for cleaning up the baby's poop!" Taotao immediately chose the division of labor.
Tan Fenghui laughed out loud.
Bai Lili smiled and said, "You have to learn it too! What if Song Zhi has to go to work and is not at home?"
"Then let him carry the baby to work!" Taotao said righteously.
At this time——
Someone in the next bed said, "Alright, alright, just stop looking... You're not destined for that!"
Taotao, Lili and Tan Fenghui turned their heads and looked at the bed next door.
In the next bed was a mother and daughter. The daughter, Liu Yinghong, had just given birth to a little girl, and the mother, Aunt Dong, was taking care of Liu Yinghong and her newborn granddaughter.
The person who spoke was Aunt Dong.
She held the little girl in her arms and used a small spoon to feed her milk made from powdered milk. She said to Liu Yinghong, "Don't envy others. They gave birth to sons and can make as much noise as they want! You should get well soon and have another child! Alas, this is already the third girl. If the fourth baby is also a daughter, your man will probably divorce you!"
Liu Yinghong's eyes were red, and she whispered, "Let's divorce!"
Aunt Dong said angrily, "Is this what you should say? It's okay to be quick-witted in front of me, but don't you think about what will happen to Daya and Erya if you really divorce your husband? Sanya was only born two days ago! I warn you, don't say this in front of your husband and your mother-in-law!"
Liu Yinghong turned her head away.
She was facing Taotao, so Taotao saw the tears splashing from her eyes.
"Why are you feeding your child milk powder?" Tao Tao asked, "Don't you have any milk?"
Liu Yinghong was stunned.
This is really just a yes or no question, very simple.
But Liu Yinghong looked dilemmatic, biting her lips tightly and saying nothing.
Aunt Dong sighed and said to Taotao, "She has a bad life! She gave birth to three girls in a row... Oh! What a bad life!" As she spoke, she continued to feed the baby girl with brewed milk with a spoon.
Tao Tao was a little unconvinced, "My mother also gave birth to three girls. My mother is very lucky."
Tan Fenghui rolled her eyes at Taotao, meaning: She's in a bad mood, so stop bringing up irrelevant issues.
Taotao pouted and stopped talking.
Lili discussed with Tan Fenghui, "Sister-in-law, I know you and Song Zhi must have arranged a shift to take care of Taotao, so count me in as well!"
Tan Fenghui said quickly: "That won't do! You have a baby over there! I'm telling you, don't stay here too long, go back quickly, what if little Mingchan wants to be fed?"
Lili was very determined. "Taozi is also my sister. I have the ability to take care of her... at least one meal a day! It's settled from now on. Sister-in-law, you and Song Zhi continue to arrange your shifts. I will bring you three a meal at 11:30 every day. I will also cook the chicken soup, pork tripe soup, and fish soup for Taotao and bring them together!"
"Oh, no, you're too tired!" said Tan Fenghui.
Bai Lili, "It's okay, I made the soup, and I have to drink it myself! After all, I'm still breastfeeding Xiao Mingchan!"
Taotao understands her third sister.
——My third sister has been a working woman for many years. She is now on maternity leave at home, but she still wants to find something to do.
"Third sister, how did you get here?" Taotao asked.
Bai Lili replied, "Take bus No. 17. It's very convenient. I can get on the bus as soon as I leave the compound and ride for six stops to get to the People's Hospital! The waiting time plus the ride time will only take 20 minutes at most! Xiao Mingchan can sleep for at least three hours... It's totally no problem!"
Tao Tao said cheerfully, "Thank you for your hard work, Third Sister! When you make soup for me, remember to make it lighter!"
Bai Lili smiled, "No problem!"
Tan Fenghui chased them away, "Okay, okay, go back quickly! Don't be too tired!"
Bai Lili looked at her watch and said to Tao Tao, "I'm leaving now. I'll bring you food tomorrow!"
Taotao nodded with a smile.
After Bai Lili left, Tan Fenghui coaxed the baby to sleep, and then instructed Taotao, "You should also take a nap when you can... You must be in pain all over after a day and night of giving birth. Anyway, you should sleep well and eat well... Don't think about anything else!"
Taotao nodded, "Sister-in-law, giving birth is so hard! You are so brave, giving birth to four little beans in one go... Aren't you afraid of the pain?"
Tan Fenghui smiled shyly, "How can I not be afraid of pain! The main thing is that when I think that it is the child of your brother and I, I am... quite happy. I am not afraid of pain!"
"Love makes people blind!" Taotao muttered.
Tan Fenghui blushed and scolded, "Go to sleep!"
Taotao was smiling and had just laid down——
An old lady came into the ward carrying an extra-large basket and went straight to Liu Yinghong who was in the middle bed.
Taotao’s first reaction was: Wow, did this old lady bring so many gifts to see Liu Yinghong? This basket is so big. How many things do I need to put in it to fill it up? Well, at least 10-20 catties of apples and 10-20 catties of grapefruits...
Before she could finish her thoughts, she saw the old lady put the giant basket aside and carefully took out a baby's swaddling clothes from it? !
Taotao was stunned.
The old lady carefully placed the baby next to Liu Yinghong and said coldly, "Do you still have milk?"
Liu Yinghong said nothing.
Then the old lady once again... took out another baby's swaddling clothes from the giant basket? Placed on the other side of Liu Yinghong's body?
Taotao was stunned. She didn't understand what was going on and stared at the family with wide eyes.
Aunt Dong picked up Liu Yinghong's newborn baby girl and walked towards the old lady with a flattering look on her face. She said awkwardly, "Mother-in-law... do you want to take a look at San Ya? San Ya is very sensible..."
The old lady uttered "Pah" and cursed, "You're just a money-loser!" Then she turned her head away.
Liu Yinghong's eyes turned red again.
After a while, the two children who were placed next to Liu Yinghong by the old lady burst into tears, their voices were so loud that they shook the sky! Not only did it wake up the sleeping baby boy in bed No. 1 near the door, it also woke up Taotao's baby in bed No. 3...
Frightened, Tan Fenghui quickly picked up her little nephew, rocking him slowly and coaxing him gently.
Taotao just stared at Liu Yinghong.
——Liu Yinghong skillfully opened the swaddling clothes of the two children, then lifted her clothes, held one child in each hand, and began to breastfeed.
The two children stopped howling immediately and began to eat the milk voraciously.
Taotao stared at the two children's heads which were covered with hair and were obviously several times larger than those of newborn babies. She felt that they did not look like newborn babies at all, but should be children between seven or eight months and one year old.
The more Taotao looked at it, the weirder it seemed.
——Doesn’t Liu Yinghong have breast milk? You can even feed two at once! Then why can the newborn Sanya only eat milk powder?
It's very mysterious.
About a quarter of an hour later, the two children, probably because they were full, started crying again.
The old lady's movements were also very quick. She took out the slings from the big basket and calmly tied the two children, one to her chest and the other on her back...
Taotao could tell from the clothes of the two children that they were a pair of boys.
The old lady was leaving with her two children on her back...
Liu Yinghong couldn't help but call her, "Mom, Daya is still young, please don't let her do too much work..."
The old lady ignored him and was about to leave.
Liu Yinghong said again: "Mom! Then tell me... Is Erya still having a fever?"
The old lady said coldly, "Take care of what you should do and don't ask about other things!" Then she left without looking back.
Liu Yinghong began to sob.
Sister Zhang, the woman in labor in bed No. 1, was moved into this ward last night, just like Taotao. Sister Zhang couldn't help but ask Aunt Dong, "What's going on? Doesn't she have milk? Why doesn't she feed her newborn baby and feed those two children? Are those two also Xiao Liu's children?"
Aunt Dong held Sanya in her arms and said with a sad face, "Those two are boys, the sons of Sanya's eldest aunt and second aunt... Alas, our Yinghong is so unlucky, her belly was not good enough, and she gave birth to two girls first! Look, the one who just came is Yinghong's mother-in-law..."
"The Wen family was also very angry! Because my son-in-law is the only son in three generations... so Erya only drank milk for three months, and her mother-in-law wouldn't let her stop, and told Yinghong to save her milk to feed the two boys from her eldest and second aunts' families!"
Sister Zhang asked, "Her aunt and second aunt don't have milk?"
Aunt Dong sighed, "They all have stable jobs, but they said breastfeeding would affect her figure and image! They also said Yinghong didn't have a formal job anyway, so she helped them breastfeed their baby and they paid her five yuan a month... but the money was directly taken away by Erya's grandmother!"
Sister Zhang said, "I won't say anything else. How can you be so stupid? The girl is your own child! If she doesn't let you feed her, will you really not feed her? And now she's not here!"
Aunt Dong hesitated, "What if her grandmother comes back again?"
Sister Zhang, "She is alone with two children. Is it so easy for her to come and go?"
Aunt Dong made up her mind, carried Sanya to her daughter's bedside, and whispered, "Then hurry up and feed Sanya a little! Milk powder is not as nutritious as mother's milk! Besides, that small bag of milk powder will take three months... Hurry, feed the child a bite!"
Liu Yinghong eagerly took the child, lifted her clothes and put the milk to the child's mouth.
San Ya had never been breastfed in the two days since she was born.
The little girl was at a loss for a while, her little mouth moved twice before she held it in her mouth.
She seemed to have discovered some delicious food!
Soon, the baby girl began to suck and swallow eagerly, making a lot of noises with big gulps and rapid gasping sounds.
Taotao, who was lying in the next bed, saw the whole scene.
She had just fed her baby, but her baby was not as hungry as Sanya... Seeing such a small baby girl devouring breast milk so voraciously...
Taotao's eyes turned red for no apparent reason.
Liu Yinghong burst into tears and tried desperately to hold back her tears.
Aunt Dong wiped her tears and said with a sob: "I'll go to the door to watch for you, you have to be quick..."
As soon as she finished speaking, Aunt Dong didn't even have time to take a step towards the door. She just took a glance and exclaimed, "Ah!" and gasped!
turn out to be--
Liu Yinghong's mother-in-law, Old Lady Wen, has returned. At this moment, she is standing at the door of the ward with a baby hanging on her chest and another on her back, staring at Liu Yinghong who is feeding Sanya with a gloomy face.
Liu Yinghong began to shiver.
Reason told her that she had to put the child down as soon as possible and then give in to her mother-in-law. But looking at Sanya who was eagerly feeding in her arms...
Liu Yinghong sobbed but held her daughter tightly in her hands.
Aunt Dong took a few deep breaths, gave a few apologetic laughs, and said incoherently, "Mother-in-law! Please listen to my explanation! Our Yinghong doesn't want to do this! Mainly, it's... it's her!"
Aunt Dong pointed to Sister Zhang who was lying on bed No. 1 and said, "She was the one who instigated Yinghong to breastfeed the child! Our Yinghong really didn't mean that, really!"
Sister Zhang was stunned.
Zhang's mother-in-law happened to be waiting nearby. Seeing Aunt Dong's behavior, she first glared at her nosy daughter-in-law, then said to Aunt Dong, "The dog is eating shit, why don't you go eat it? Look, I've already said it, whether you eat the shit or not is up to you! If you really eat the shit, it has nothing to do with me! You're already old, and you still don't know if you can eat this shit? If you want to eat it, it's because you like it!"
As soon as Granny Zhang opens her mouth, she becomes a troublemaker.
Aunt Dong lowered her head and dared not say a word.
Old Mrs. Wen didn't argue with Grandma Zhang and Sister Zhang, she just slowly walked to Liu Yinghong's bedside.
Aunt Dong was extremely anxious and whispered, "Yinghong, give me the child quickly! Quickly..."
But Liu Yinghong looked down at her daughter who was still swallowing milk, then looked up at Old Lady Wen and begged with sobs, "Mom, please..."
“Bang!”
A crisp slapping sound was heard.
Liu Yinghong was hit so hard that her body tilted sideways——
She still held her daughter tightly, but there was a clear red slap mark on her face!
Taotao was furious.
She lay on the bed, flicked her fingers in the air, and injected several streams of spiritual power into Old Lady Wen's lower abdomen. However, Taotao had just given birth to a child and her body was weak, so she did not dare to use too much spiritual energy.
But after three or four empty shots, Taotao stopped - with this kind of force, Mrs. Wen would probably have diarrhea in half an hour!
Granny Zhang was furious. She pointed at Granny Wen and cursed, "Hey, are you a mad dog? You hit me as soon as you come here? I'm telling you, if you do that again, I'll call the police!"
Old Lady Wen yelled at Grandma Zhang, "I'm teaching my daughter-in-law a lesson, why do you want to meddle in other people's business here?"
"What evidence do you have to prove that Liu Yinghong is your daughter-in-law?" Granny Zhang cursed back, "If you can't produce evidence stamped by the police station to prove that you are Liu Yinghong's mother-in-law, I have reason to suspect that you are a human trafficker!"
"Look at yourself, there is a child hanging in front and a child hanging behind... Take out the documents to prove clearly whether these two children have any relationship with you! You even beat the woman in labor as soon as you entered the hospital! Let me ask you, do you want to snatch away the little girl who was just born by Liu Yinghong in bed number 2? What's next? Whose child do you want to snatch?" Grandma Zhang's voice was very loud.
Old Mrs. Wen opened her mouth in shock.
The two boys hanging on Old Lady Wen were frightened by Grandma Zhang's thunderous voice and started crying loudly.
Grandma Wen instantly turned into a super loving mother. She was extremely distressed and began to tremble all over, "Oh oh oh... Grandma's fat grandson! Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, it's okay... Grandma is here, my good fat grandson..."
While coaxing the child, she glared at Grandma Zhang fiercely.
Granny Zhang looked like a veteran, and she glared at Granny Wen with an even more ferocious look than Granny Wen's.
The two of them were in a stalemate for a while like fighting cocks. Old Lady Wen was defeated. She snorted heavily, glared at Liu Yinghong, and said coldly: "I'll deal with you when Jiaming comes back!"
Liu Yinghong sobbed and lowered her head, but her hands were still tightly holding the child who was still drinking milk.
Old Mrs. Wen ran away, holding her stomach.
That back figure looked like someone was fleeing in panic.
Only Taotao knew that the old woman must have been unable to hold it in and was about to have diarrhea.
Aunt Dong was so frightened that her legs went weak.
After a long while, she slowly moved to the door of the ward, looked around for a long time, and then came back weakly, complaining to her daughter again, "You! I told you to put San Ya down quickly, why didn't you listen?"
Liu Yinghong bit her lip and said, "Anyway, she has already seen it. From now on... my San Ya must also have milk!"
“Then you won’t care about Daya and Erya anymore?” Aunt Dong said, “You are lying in the hospital, and you can’t see how she tortures Daya and Erya at home! Besides, with her personality, if she suffers here, will Daya and Erya have a good life in the future? And my good son-in-law... He will definitely listen to her instigation. You, you..."
Liu Yinghong was stunned for a long while, then cried, "I will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow, and I will go back to look after Daya and Erya..."
"Are you stupid? Can you take good care of yourself after giving birth if you go back? It was me who begged Doctor Hu, saying that you had appendicitis, and only then did I get you the opportunity to be hospitalized for half a month for treatment... If you don't take good care of yourself here before going back, how are you going to get pregnant with your fourth child?" Aunt Dong asked back.
Liu Yinghong was obviously not a person with a firm stance. After hearing what her mother said, she became a little confused again.
Tao Tao couldn't help but ask, "Aunt Dong, if your son-in-law's family has only one son for three generations, then where did his two sisters come from?"
Tan Fenghui frowned, "Taotao, don't talk to her. You never know when she might betray you!"
Aunt Dong's face instantly turned as red as a monkey's butt!
"Besides, that old lady Wen might come back at any minute!" Tan Fenghui continued.
Aunt Dong was a little scared, "How did you know?"
Tan Fenghui pointed to the huge basket.
Aunt Dong understood - it was estimated that Old Mrs. Wen would have to come and get the big basket soon.
Meanwhile, Liu Yinghong answered Taotao's question, "...When they say that his family has only one son for three generations, it doesn't mean that he is the only child, but that he is the only boy. He actually has eight siblings, the first seven are girls, the eldest and second sisters were kept by his parents, and the rest were all given away..."
Tao Tao, "You only gave birth to three girls, but your mother-in-law gave birth to seven!"
Liu Yinghong shook her head.
San Ya in her arms was finally full, and she relaxed her mouth, smacking her lips a few times, as if she was recalling this rare delicacy. Even her expression became relaxed.
Liu Yinghong smiled, gently placed her daughter on the bed, and patted her a few times...
Taotao could see that Liu Yinghong was too cowardly.
This kind of sacrificial woman is not easy to persuade if she doesn't wake up and has no ideas or goals.
So Taotao didn't say anything and fell asleep hugging the pillow.
In a trance, she seemed to hear Aunt Dong apologize to Granny Zhang——
"Granny Zhang, I'm really sorry for what happened just now—"
Granny Zhang said sarcastically, "We don't deserve it! Anyway, we have opened our eyes today and learned what it means to be a dog biting Lu Dongbin... We will learn from this in the future! If we interfere in things that have nothing to do with us..."
At this point, Granny Zhang glared at her daughter-in-law again and scolded her: "...Humph, whoever meddles in other people's business is a fool anyway!"
Sister Zhang lowered her head.
Aunt Dong was embarrassed.
Taotao had a good sleep.
I was dazed and seemed to hear some rustling sounds.
When I opened my eyes, it was getting dark.
The aroma of food wafted through the ward, and Song Zhi sat by the bed, not knowing what to do.
Taotao rubbed her eyes and found that Song Zhi was changing the baby's pee and poop?
The movements are quite standard!
When Song Zhi saw Taotao wake up, he quickly asked, "Are you hungry?"
Taotao was really a little hungry, so she said "hmm" and asked, "Has sister-in-law gone home?"
"Let's go back! Wait for me for a moment, I'll be there soon." After Song Zhi cleaned up the child's poop and pee, he wiped the child's butt with toilet paper and then used a towel dipped in water to wash the child's butt. Then he handed the child to Taotao.
"See if he wants to drink milk."
Taotao already had some experience, so she lifted her clothes and aimed her thing at the doll's mouth...
The baby was feeding obediently.
Song Zhi went to empty the feces and urine, washed the basin, brought it back, and stuffed it under Taotao's bed. Then he ran in and out to wash hands, towels, diapers, and dishes...
When the baby finished feeding and fell asleep, Song Zhi brought all the food over.
Seeing Song Zhi busying around, Taotao stared at him and always felt that from now on, her and his lives might change drastically. For example, Wawa had just defecated in the house, but she and Song Zhi didn't feel disgusted at all. They even accepted the fact calmly and continued to eat their meals calmly.
Taotao looked at her son lying on the bed again.
——Is this the real home, the real bond, the real family affairs, the daily necessities of life?
like……
It is more lively than the original life when it was just her and Song Zhi.
Taotao pursed her lips and smiled.
Song Zhi rushed home to cook two meals in total.
Song Zhi had rice, a few pieces of stewed chicken with chili sauce, stir-fried beans, and fried fatty pork with pickled mustard greens.
Taotao had two insulated lunch boxes, one full of chicken and the other full of soup.
——Before, when Tang Liren was still at Song Zhi and Taotao's house, she told Song Zhi: When you prepare postpartum meals for Taotao in the future, don't give her anything to eat except soup and meat!
This time, Tan Fenghui also repeatedly instructed: Don’t let Taotao eat anything else. Our family didn’t have the conditions before, so my confinement period was the same as if I hadn’t had any. Just eat whatever is available at home, and at most add an egg! But now our family has the conditions, and for Taotao's health, you have to listen to mom! Remember, let her eat chicken and drink chicken soup! Don't eat anything else.
Although Song Zhi had his doubts about this, he did his best to ask around and found out that those whose families were financially better off...it seemed that their wives only ate stewed chicken soup, pork rib soup, pork tripe soup, fish soup, etc. during their confinement period?
He did as he was told.
However, according to his guess, Taotao is not someone who would obey orders obediently.
So he stuffed his lunch box full, for fear that Taotao would want to eat his food.
Sure enough, Taotao took one look at her two insulated lunch boxes and was stunned!
"Song Zhi! You want me to eat this?!" Da Baitao was very angry, "Why is it all meat and soup? Where's the rice? Where's the vegetables?"
Song Zhi, "Mom won't let me..."
Taotao: "But I want to eat rice! And vegetables!"
Song Zhi obediently gave up his lunch box and advised: "But you still need to drink more soup and eat more chicken... Mom and sister-in-law have experience. They don't let you eat anything else, so there must be a reason... So if you want to eat rice and vegetables, eat less."
"Uh-huh!"
Taotao took out 60% of her usual amount of food from his lunch box, put it on the lid of the lunch box, and started eating.
The fried pickled mustard greens with fatty pork residue were very fragrant and went well with rice, and the beans were very refreshing. Taotao finished her rice in two or three mouthfuls, then picked out four or five pieces of the fatter and tenderer chicken from the full lunch box and left them in her own bowl, pushing the rest to Song Zhi, "These are yours!"
Next, she slowly ate the chicken with the chicken soup and began to make requests to Song Zhi:
"Song Zhi, the weather is too hot, I have to take a shower! So later, take two clean towels, soak them in boiling water and let them cool to half lukewarm, and wipe my body." Taotao said.
Song Zhi thought for a moment, "The reason why women are not allowed to take baths during confinement is probably because they are afraid that the mother will catch a cold, right?"
"It's possible."
Song Zhi pondered and said, "I see. When I wipe your body, you must cover it with a quilt, and both a warm towel and a dry towel must be prepared at the same time. Just make do with it today, and I'll make two skeletons and bring them over tomorrow. In the future, you can stay in bed and wipe your body, so you won't catch a cold."
Taotao raised another question, "Also, it's not comfortable to eat like this... Get me a board, or a kang table like the ones in my hometown, so that when I eat in bed, I'll have a place to put the rice and dishes."
Song Zhi nodded, "I'll get it tomorrow."
Liu Yinghong in the next bed kept staring at Taotao and Song Zhi.
——How could there be such a beautiful woman like Bai Taotao in the world? How could there be a man who loves his wife so much and obeys her every word?
Taotao didn't know what Liu Yinghong was thinking.
She remembered another thing and asked Song Zhi, "Oh, and I heard from my third sister that you named the baby 'Bai Song'?"
Hearing this, Song Zhi glanced at his biological son who was sleeping soundly beside him.
What if it’s still ugly?
Tao Tao thought for a moment and said, "Let's just call him Song Feibai!"
——Song Zhilian’s handwriting is Feibai style, which is quite nice.
Song Zhi didn't care, "Sure!"
Tao Tao sighed, "You already don't like him when he's still so young. But Xiao Feibai has liked you since he was in his mother's womb. He especially likes to play the stepping game with you..."
Song Zhi paused, feeling a little guilty. "No, I don't dislike him. I, I..."
But he had been dreaming for eight months, always thinking that he would get a beautiful little cotton-padded jacket that looked like Taotao, delicate and soft, but he didn't expect it to be a little monkey!
It would be a lie to say I'm not disappointed.
Tao Tao smiled and said, "Little Mingchan wasn't pretty when she was just born, but she became pretty as she grew up. In a few days, our little Feibai will definitely become more and more pretty!"
Tao Tao Mingyan's beautiful smile slightly soothed the resentment deep in Song Zhi's heart.
He glanced at the sleeping little monkey again and said with a smile: "No matter how good-looking it is, it's not as good-looking as you!"
Tao Tao suddenly felt proud, "Is there any need to say more?"
The young couple was chatting and laughing, and Liu Yinghong, who was lying on the bed next to them, saw them and felt extremely envious.
Of course, she also longs to be loved and cared for by her husband...
But that is simply a fantasy.
Liu Yinghong was feeling sad when suddenly a group of people rushed into the ward aggressively, shouting loudly:
"Liu Yinghong, what do you mean?"
Everyone in the ward was stunned.
Song Zhi stared at one of the dozen people who broke in, frowned, and asked, "...Why are you here?"
