◎Who will take over?◎
"Dad, I'm in the hospital right now. My wife is about to give birth. I called you to let you know. I won't call mom. Remember to tell her that Wei Xuan is still in the delivery room. I took some time out to come and call you."
"Okay, go ahead and do your work. Take good care of your wife. You don't have to worry about your mother."
"Thank you, Dad." After making the call, Jiang Che ran to the delivery room without wasting a moment.
After Jiang's father hung up the phone, he thought about it and got up and went to Jiang's mother's office.
After hearing the news, Jiang's mother immediately asked for leave and went to the hospital.
Finally, it was Jiang's father who stopped her and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? You can't help much if you go to the hospital now. You might as well go home and cook something to take with you. Your mother-in-law and Xiao Che are both in the hospital. They probably won't be able to cook for lunch. You might as well bring some food to them."
Mother Jiang thought about it and felt that what her husband said made sense: "Okay, then I'll go ask for leave first. Remember to come to the hospital to see the child after get off work in the evening."
In the hospital, Wei Xuan was in so much pain that she wanted to catch Jiang Che and beat him up.
...
...
Jiang Che, who was waiting outside the delivery room, was also having a hard time. He had never felt time passing so slowly before.
Finally, the door of the delivery room opened, the doctor came out, and Jiang Che and Wei's mother surrounded him.
"How's it going, doctor?"
The doctor smiled and congratulated: "It went smoothly. Both mother and daughter are safe."
As they were talking, Wei Xuan was helped out, with a nurse holding a child beside her.
Jiang Che hurriedly went over to support Wei Xuan's other side. However, Wei's mother took the child from the nurse, took a look at her, and smiled with joy: her granddaughter is just beautiful.
Only after arriving at the ward and settling Wei Xuan down did Jiang Che have time to visit his daughter.
Mother Wei wanted to let him hold her, but he took a step back: "Mom, you should hold her first, I'll take a look."
Mother Wei smiled and did not force him, she turned sideways to make it easier for him to see.
Jiang Che stretched his head to take a look, then blinked hard for a while and looked again.
"Haha, your girl is pretty."
Jiang Che withdrew his eyes without saying anything, and gave two dry laughs as a response to his mother-in-law's words.
Wei Xuan was lying on the bed and saw that he seemed unhappy. She thought he was not satisfied that she had given birth to a girl, so she asked angrily, "What's wrong? Don't you like girls?"
"No, no, absolutely not." Jiang Che still had a strong desire to survive, and immediately explained: "As long as it's our child, I like it regardless of whether it's a boy or a girl."
"Then what's with your expression that looks like you're about to cry?"
Oh, what can Jiang Che say? He can't say that his daughter is ugly. Seeing that she might become a burden to him in the future, he must be worried!
Seeing Wei Xuan staring at him, as if she would not give up unless he told her the truth, Jiang Che gritted his teeth and told her anyway.
"Wife, let me make this clear first. You just gave birth and you can't get angry. I said it's okay, but don't be impatient."
Wei Xuan was not anxious at first, but now she was really anxious after hearing what he said: "Tell me quickly, is there something wrong with the child?"
The two of them were talking quietly, and Wei's mother was so focused on her granddaughter that she didn't pay attention to what they were saying. Wei Xuan's voice became a little louder due to her anxiety, and was heard by Wei's mother.
"What's wrong with the child? We are fine. As a mother, you should stop being so reckless!"
"Mom, it's not Wei Xuan's fault, it's me," Jiang Che didn't know what to say. He tried to gather his strength for a long time before saying, "Oh, Mom, don't you see that the child looks a little strange? The head is pointed, and the eyes are bulging like a frog." The whole face looked like it had been soaked in water. If his wife hadn't been the only one giving birth in the delivery room at that time, he would have suspected that the child had been swapped. With the looks of him and his wife, there was no way they could give birth to such an ugly child.
Jiang Che's words stunned Wei's mother. It took her a long time to react. Then she lowered her head to look at her granddaughter in her arms and couldn't help laughing: "You kid, how can you say that about your own daughter? All babies are like this when they are just born. They will get better as they grow older."
Wei Xuan also knew this. Newborn babies are not good-looking, but no matter how ugly they are, they are hers. She rolled her eyes at Jiang Che and motioned for Wei's mother to put the child next to her.
Looking at the ugly child, Wei Xuan felt somehow soft in her heart.
Jiang Che then realized that he had made a mistake, and since he was disliked by his wife, he could only touch his nose awkwardly and shamelessly approached the mother and daughter with a flattering smile.
Wei Xuan had just given birth and was extremely tired. She didn't have the energy to argue with him. She fell into a deep sleep after seeing the baby.
Seeing that her daughter was asleep and the baby had just been born and she was of no use to her, Wei's mother wanted to take advantage of the time to go home and make soup for her daughter and prepare lunch at the same time.
Before she could even open her mouth, Jiang's mother found her way into the ward.
When I saw my son sitting inside, I knew I had made the right choice.
She walked in, patted Jiang Che's back first, and then smiled at Wei's mother who was sitting on the other side.
"My dear relatives, I am really sorry to trouble you. Did Xiaoxuan's birth go smoothly?"
Mother Wei also stood up and lowered her voice and said, "It went smoothly. The baby was born in just over two hours."
When Jiang Che saw his mother coming, he immediately gave up his seat and pointed at the child to show off to her mother: "Mom, look, my daughter is pretty!"
Jiang's mother didn't favor boys over girls, so she wasn't unhappy when she heard that she had given birth to a girl. She smiled and walked over to take a look: "She's pretty, pretty, like Xiaoxuan. She's sure to be a great beauty in the future."
Section 34
Mother Wei had been paying attention to her mother-in-law's expression since the moment her son-in-law opened his mouth. Seeing that she really didn't dislike the fact that Ni'er gave birth to a girl, she felt relieved.
He also told Jiang's mother about the joke that Jiang Che had just made.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the room was extremely good.
After all the chatting and laughing, Jiang's mother remembered the food she brought.
"Mother-in-law has been busy all morning. Have you eaten yet? I made some food at home and brought it over. You should eat quickly."
Mother Wei was fine, as she ate the few dumplings that Wei Xuan had left in the morning. But it was hard for Jiang Che, a grown man, as he was so busy that he hadn't eaten a single bite of rice.
Jiang Che, who had been busy and excited, didn't feel hungry at first, but now he realized he was hungry after his mother reminded him.
After dinner, Wei's mother saw Jiang's mother here, so she suggested that she go home first to pack up and make dinner.
I also wanted to give the mother and son a chance to talk.
After she left, Jiang's mother took Jiang Che aside and asked him about what happened in the morning. After finding out everything, she packed up the lunch boxes on the table and took them out, preparing to find a place to wash them.
Wei Xuan was awakened by hunger. When she opened her eyes, she saw Jiang Che staring at the child next to her.
"What are you looking at?"
"Are you awake?" Jiang Che asked in surprise, "Are you hungry? Mom brought you some soup. Do you want to drink some?"
Wei Xuan nodded: "Where's mom? Is she back home?"
"I'm back. My mother is here too. She's outside washing the lunch boxes now." Jiang Che told her what happened after she fell asleep while opening the lunch box.
Wei Xuan was helped up by him and sat up. She took the soup he handed over and started drinking it.
It tasted good. After finishing one bowl, she asked Jiang Che to pour her another one.
The pregnant woman in the bed next to her looked at her with envy and said, "Your mother-in-law is so nice to you. She even made chicken soup for you."
This pregnant woman is a few years older than Wei Xuan. This is her third pregnancy. Because her first two pregnancies were both girls, her mother-in-law didn't even show up to make chicken soup for her during this pregnancy. From beginning to end, only her husband took care of her.
Seeing Wei Xuan, who also gave birth to a daughter, not only had her mother by her side, but her mother-in-law was also so nice to her, I couldn't help but sigh.
Wei Xuan also smiled and complimented her: "Your husband treats you very well, too."
Hearing this, the pregnant woman looked at her husband who was busy massaging her legs, pursed her lips and smiled: "Yes, that's the only advantage."
As they were talking, Jiang's mother walked in.
"Xiaoxuan, are you awake? The chicken soup is okay, I put less salt in it. You just gave birth and can't drink something too salty. Just bear with it for now. It will be fine after this period of time."
"Yeah, it's quite delicious, thank you mom!"
"Why thank you? It's my duty. You are the one who has worked hard giving birth to the child."
Wei Xuan felt it was really painful when giving birth, and she didn't want to suffer such pain again in her life. But after giving birth and seeing the child, she felt that it was all worth it.
Wei Xuan had a natural birth, and her milk started coming out after giving birth. After staying in the hospital for a night to make sure there were no problems, Jiang Che rode his tricycle to take the mother and daughter back home at noon the next day.
After arriving home, Wei Xuan finally breathed a sigh of relief. It was really inconvenient to be in the hospital. Especially Jiang Che and Wei's mother couldn't rest well at night.
The next day after arriving home, Wei Xuan pushed Jiang Che to go to work immediately.
"You have your mother at home, and the child sleeps for more than ten hours a day and doesn't make any noise. It's fine for you to stay at home. If you don't go to work, your boss will definitely have an opinion."
"Okay, I'm leaving now. You and your daughter should remember to think of me!"
"Go ahead, go ahead."
Jiang's mother came in with egg and sugar water, and saw her son-in-law walking out with his head turned back every few steps. She thought it was funny and asked, "Did your son-in-law go to work?"
Wei Xuan took the bowl and started eating: "Well, he might as well go to work early if he has nothing to do at home."
Speaking of work, Wei Xuan remembered something, took a bite of the egg and said to Jiang's mother: "Mom, why don't you call home and ask my three sisters-in-law to see who has time to come and help me take over the shift."
"What? What does this mean?" Mother Wei had just finished touching her granddaughter's diaper and was about to withdraw her hand when she heard her daughter say this. She turned to look at her in surprise.
Wei Xuan seemed not to hear the anxiety in Wei's mother's tone. She ate while speaking calmly.
"I've been asking my colleagues to help me look after my work at the supply and marketing cooperative these past two days, but that won't work for too long. They have things to do at home, and I can't go back for a while, so I thought about asking my sister-in-law to help me take over for a few months. No matter how many months they work, I just want to give them all the wages they earn from work, and I won't take a penny."
Mother Wei nodded at her and said, "You, how long have you been thinking about this? Why are you only telling me now?"
"Hehe, I knew I couldn't hide it from you." Wei Xuan smiled at Wei's mother: "But if I tell you in advance, you will definitely not agree. Which of my sisters-in-law do you think is better to ask?"
Mother Wei sighed. Her daughter had given her a difficult problem. No matter which of the three daughters-in-law came, the remaining two would definitely not be happy.
But she also knew what was right and what was wrong. Such a great thing would only happen to her family because Nier was thinking about her family. Others would not be able to get it.
The author has something to say:
Who wouldn't like a sweet and soft little girl?
Let Jiang Che enjoy the care and love of his little cotton-padded jacket first!
I'm afraid that the boy is too naughty and will scare Jiang Che away from having a second child (*^_^*)
Does anyone have a nice name? I'm terrible at naming!
