Gu Yanqing was also helpless. He never imagined that raising a child would be so difficult.
He can't understand and can't speak, so he has to guess everything. How can a grown man like him guess what a baby is thinking?
It’s really too difficult!
The soldiers leading the war are all a group of rough men. If he gets unhappy, he can just pick them up and beat them up. How simple and straightforward!
Seeing that he looked aggrieved again, Qian Xiaolan smiled and comforted him: "You are just not used to it now. Once you are used to it, it won't be that difficult."
When Gu Yanqing heard this, he thought it made sense. This was his first day taking care of the child and he didn't know anything, so that's why he was like this.
Once he has taken care of the baby for two days and gotten used to it, he will definitely know what it means when a baby cries.
He had beautiful thoughts.
Unfortunately, even when the child could speak, he still couldn't understand what it meant.
Now, Guoguo was finally coaxed to sleep, and Qian Xiaolan also fell asleep with her eyes closed.
Gu Yanqing was so nervous that he had to get up from time to time to check on the child to make sure she was okay.
When Qian Xiaolan thought it was time to feed the baby again and woke up, she saw him putting a finger on the tip of the baby's nose.
Qian Xiaolan blinked, "What are you doing?"
Gu Yanqing took back his hand and breathed a sigh of relief: "I couldn't even hear Guoguo's breathing just now, it scared me."
As he spoke, his eyes turned red.
Qian Xiaolan laughed at him: "You are such a fool. Guoguo is still young, so her breathing is naturally quiet. It's normal that you can't hear it sometimes."
That’s what she said, but when Qian Xiaolan took care of Guoguo herself, she did the same thing.
At this moment, Gu Yanqing took Guoguo's words to heart and would try Guoguo's breath again next time.
Not only him, but almost everyone who took care of Guoguo for them would make this move when they were alone.
That night, Qian Xiaolan had to get up every two hours to feed her baby, and then she would fall asleep and wake up instantly.
Gu Yanqing could only take a nap at most and didn't dare to fall asleep at all.
In the second half of the night, as soon as Guoguo cried, he could accurately judge whether she was hungry or had to pee or poop.
He was just feeling smug and thinking that taking care of a child was just a piece of cake when he heard Hu Guifen calling him softly outside the door.
He put Guoguo down, opened the door and went out.
Then, this man, who was almost thirty years old, had his ears pulled by his own mother.
Gu Yanqing grimaced in pain, and Hu Guifen snorted coldly and let him go.
"You're such a bummer. You made me worry and couldn't sleep all night. You deserve it!"
Gu Yanqing rubbed his ears and muttered softly: "Even if you don't believe me, you should believe Xiaolan. What is there to worry about?"
Hu Guifen was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, so she asked him to take care of the mother and daughter and went back to prepare breakfast.
As a result, as I walked out of the ward door, I saw Rong Qian coming over with a three-layer food box.
The two families greeted each other, then walked back to the ward happily, arm in arm.
"Grandma, thank you for your hard work last night!
I was busy with surgery yesterday and forgot to give you the dormitory key in advance. I'm so sorry.
I stewed this chicken last night after I got home. I simmered it overnight over low heat. It’s soft and boneless. You can have some later.”
Hu Guifen laughed, "Why would an old woman like me eat chicken? Just let Xiaolan eat more.
Besides, I wasn't busy last night, they took care of the child themselves."
Rong Qian was surprised: "Really? Can this family take care of these two children by themselves?"
In her opinion, although her son-in-law is an excellent person, he is a soldier after all, and is as rough as her father-in-law.
She couldn't imagine how Gu Yanqing took care of the child.
"Don't say you don't believe it, I don't believe it myself. Yan Qing has been in the army for so many years, and his work is very rough.
“When I went back before, I almost broke my arm when I asked my nephew to change his clothes.
As it turns out, this is his biological child, and he learned it all by himself.
“At the beginning of last night, I heard Guoguo crying for a long time, but then the crying time became shorter and shorter.
I went to check on them just now, and Xiaolan and Guoguo were both sleeping soundly, so it seems he took good care of them last night."
Hearing this, Rong Qian felt relieved.
She had surgeries several days in a row recently and could not take time off to look after her daughter during the confinement period. She felt very guilty about leaving her in-laws to take care of her alone.
Now I hear that my son-in-law can also help, that’s great.
Rong Qian glanced at the dark circles under Hu Guifen's eyes, filled a bowl of chicken soup, and forcefully stuffed it into her hands.
"Hurry up and drink this bowl of soup and go to sleep. I'm here with the children."
Hu Guifen didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "I'm not a pregnant woman, why would I drink this? I can just eat a bun."
As he spoke, he put the chicken soup on the table and reached out to pick up a bun from the food box.
Seeing that she really didn't want to drink, Rong Qian didn't force her and just took out a bowl of flat meat from another food box.
"Braised pork and steamed buns, this is your breakfast. Yan Qing will let him go to the cafeteria to eat by himself.
I'll go see if Xiaolan is awake."
Inside the house, Qian Xiaolan had woken up a long time ago, but she had woken up too many times during the night, so she felt a bit tired and didn't want to get up.
Rong Qian went into the room and sent Gu Yanqing to eat, and then she checked Qian Xiaolan's wound.
Qian Xiaolan whispered in her ear, "Mom, I used some special medicine last night. The wound has healed, and I asked Yan Qing to help remove the stitches."
Hearing her say this, Rong Qian became even more worried.
After locking the door, he asked Qian Xiaolan to take off her pants so that he could check her wound.
Qian Xiaolan had no choice but to do as she was told.
After reading it, Rong Qian was so shocked that she was speechless for a long time.
"Lanlan, can you show me that medicine?"
If this medicine is used in the military, how many lives can it save?
Qian Xiaolan took out the jade bottle, and Rong Qian immediately shook her head when she saw it.
“Forget it, the hemostatic medicine you used before was already very good.
This is too outrageous, it is not appropriate to take it out. "
Qian Xiaolan chuckled, took out another porcelain bottle, poured two pills into it and handed it to her:
"Then mom will study it and see if we can make it. Even if we can only imitate half of its effects, it will still be a miracle for the current medical level of Daxia."
Rong Qian was very tempted, as that was her original plan. However, when she saw the jade bottle, she immediately realized that this medicine was not available in ordinary dimensions, so she hesitated again.
In the end, Rong Qian couldn't resist the temptation of the miraculous medicinal effects and accepted the two pills given by Qian Xiaolan.
After Qian Xiaolan got up and washed, she drank a large bowl of chicken soup and ate two bowls of rice before she filled her stomach.
Just after she finished eating and before she could get up and move around, Guoguo closed her eyes and started crying loudly again.
Rong Qian took a look and found the diaper was wet, so she changed it for a clean one.
Feeling comfortable, Guoguo opened her little mouth and looked towards her mother for food.
Qian Xiaolan chuckled and tapped her little mouth: "You little greedy cat, you're looking for food without even opening your eyes."
As he said this, he gently lifted Guoguo into his hands, undressed her and fed her.
At this moment, there was a sudden noise coming from outside the door. Rong Qian comforted Qian Xiaolan with a few words, then got up and went out to check.
Qian Xiaolan listened to the intermittent talking outside and frowned.
