Lin Qingmei was chatting with the woman in labor in the next bed when Lin Qinglan and Xu Zhiwei came in from outside.
"Qingmei, I'm here." Lin Qinglan felt so distressed when she saw Lin Qingmei after giving birth. It was the first time that her good sister looked so miserable.
"Lan Zi, you're here, come and see your eldest nephew." Lin Qingmei struggled to get out of bed when she saw her good sister.
"Sister, you came at the right time. You can take care of Qingmei." He Xufeng was relieved to see Lin Qinglan coming. It was really tiring for him to take care of both the child and the adults by himself last night.
"Where's your mother? Didn't she say she would come to take care of Qingmei?" Lin Qinglan looked around but didn't see He's mother, so she asked in confusion.
"My father-in-law is sick. She and my sister-in-law just went there the day before yesterday. It may take another two days for him to come." Lin Qingmei did not blame He's mother. After all, He's father was sick and needed someone to take care of him. She had originally thought of asking the captain's wife to come and help take care of him during the confinement period, but it was over before she could tell her.
"I see you want me to take care of you during your confinement. Tell me honestly, is this a planned thing?" Lin Qinglan rolled her eyes and said unhappily.
"It really wasn't the case this time, it was all an accident. However, given our friendship, it's only right that you help me take care of the baby." Lin Qingmei really hadn't planned to let Lin Qinglan help take care of the child, but now it's too late.
Today was the first day after giving birth, and He Xufeng was a little flustered. Everything would be fine after she was discharged from the hospital and went home the next day.
"I knew you would say that." Lin Qinglan smiled helplessly.
At this moment, the child suddenly started crying. Lin Qingmei was anxious to pick him up, but was stopped by Lin Qinglan, "Just lie down and I'll take care of him."
Lin Qinglan picked up the child skillfully and rocked him gently to coax him.
In the evening, just as Lin Qinglan passed away, Uncle He and Aunt He also came to the hospital.
Since they didn't know the specific ward number, they could only ask the doctors and nurses in the hospital. Fortunately, only a pair of twins were born last night, and Aunt He asked the nurse and successfully found Lin Qingmei's ward.
"201, this is it, let's go in quickly!"
When Aunt He opened the door, she saw He Xufeng holding a child in one hand and coaxing him.
"Hey, please show me the twins. This is the first time our family has twins." Aunt He put down her things and opened her arms to help hold the babies.
"Aunt, uncle, why are you here?" He Xufeng was surprised to see his uncle and aunt. He remembered that he did not notify them.
"You kid, why didn't you inform us that your niece-in-law had such a big baby? If your mother hadn't called me to come and help take care of the child, I wouldn't have known that Qingmei was already dead." Aunt He was actually a little angry. It was fine that she didn't inform us when her nephews got married before, but now she didn't tell us that the child was born. It seemed that her eldest nephew didn't treat them as relatives at all.
"Aunt, I really didn't mean it. Qingmei was the one who did it last night. I was a little confused and didn't even think of notifying anyone. As for my mom, it should be her who called Linjiawan, and then the captain told her."
He Xufeng felt that he was very wronged. It was the first time he became a father and he had to take care of his wife and children. How could he have the time to make a phone call?
After listening to He Xufeng's explanation, Aunt He and Uncle He finally calmed down.
At night, with the help of Aunt He, He Xufeng felt much more relaxed.
The next day, Lin Qingmei was discharged from the hospital. Besides Aunt He, Grandma He also went to Linjiawan with them.
Uncle He didn't go with them because he had to go to work. He had to stay in the city to cook for the two children.
He Xuyan and He Xuyu are already in junior high school, and they still have ten more days before the winter vacation.
Arriving at Linjiawan, Lin Qingmei immediately used her wood power to comb her body and recover from the damage she sustained after giving birth. While in the hospital, she was afraid that her body would recover too quickly and arouse suspicion from others, so she did not dare to use her wood power.
In order to eat better during the confinement period, Lin Qingmei raised more than 20 hens in advance. If there were not enough food, she could go to the village to exchange them.
A few days later, He's mother rushed over from South Island, bringing five cans of milk powder and two silver bracelets.
As soon as she entered the door, she ran to Lin Qingmei. She felt guilty for not being able to be with her daughter-in-law when she gave birth. "Qingmei, I'm so sorry that I couldn't come to take care of you in time."
Lin Qingmei smiled and responded: "Mom, no son, how is Dad's health now?"
"Your father has high blood pressure. We told him not to drink, but he just couldn't control his drinking. This time it was thanks to the guards who discovered it early and sent him to the hospital in time, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous." This time He's father's illness was so sudden that everyone was caught off guard.
This time, He's mother scolded He's father harshly. She didn't know that her daughter-in-law was about to die, but she still made such a scene.
"Who will take care of Dad when you come?" Lin Qingmei didn't want her mother-in-law to leave her father-in-law alone in the South Island Army in order to take care of her.
Her parents-in-law have been very nice to her over the years. After they knew that she had resigned, they still sent money to her and her husband every month.
"His condition is stable now, and Fenglan will be taking care of him alone in Nandao. But I may have to trouble you and Xufeng in the future, as your father may have to retire from the army this time." He's mother looked at Lin Qingmei cautiously. They only had He Xufeng as their son, and of course they wanted to stay with their son after retirement.
"Mom, what are you talking about? Of course I welcome you to come and live with us." Lin Qingmei was not at all averse to living with her parents-in-law. The main reason was that she didn't want to take care of the children.
Her parents-in-law can live with her and help her take care of the children. Why would she refuse such a good offer?
