Although they were both pregnant, her complexion was not as good as mine. Her face was yellow and her hair was very dry.
My hands are dry too.
Xu Niannian even heard her stomach growling, as if she was hungry.
Then she looked at her husband, who was slumped beside her, looking half dead.
Wait for Lu Huaijin to come back and feed Xu Niannian to finish drinking water.
Xu Niannian took out two small packets of biscuits from her bag and handed them to the woman:
"are you hungry?"
The woman wanted to take it, but hesitated. Instead, her man took it from Xu Niannian:
"Eat if you're told to. Then you'll have the strength to give me a son."
After saying that, he stuffed the biscuit into her hand and took one to eat himself.
As soon as he took a bite, he was amazed by the taste of the biscuits. If he hadn't been stared at by the other woman's husband, he would have wanted to take two more packs.
After Xu Niannian replenished some strength, she lay down on the bed to rest, enduring the pain. She also knew that she couldn't shout and waste her energy.
Lu Huaijin went to see the nurse several times that night, and each time the nurse said it was still early after checking him.
When daybreak came, Xu Niannian was finally pushed into the operating room.
Today is the first time in a century that the hospital has triplets, so not only did the director of obstetrics perform the operation personally, but the director of pediatrics also came to join in the fun.
After all, if they are multiple births, there is a high probability that the children will have problems.
For a time, the hospital's top talents gathered together.
Mother Lu and Lu Huaijin were waiting anxiously outside. Half an hour later, a cry was finally heard from the delivery room.
Xu Niannian inside first breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at the wet little baby and tears flowed from the corners of her eyes.
This long period of waiting for delivery finally paid off at this moment.
The nurses dried the baby, wrapped him in a blanket, and brought him to Xu Niannian to cuddle with her:
"Congratulations, the boss is a kid."
Xu Niannian glanced at the child and found that there was nothing abnormal, so she felt relieved. Only at this moment did she realize that as a mother, all she wanted was for him to be healthy.
The nurse let the child smell the scent of his mother and then went out to look for the family.
As soon as she came out of the birthing door she shouted:
"Who is Xu Niannian's family? Your eldest son was born."
As soon as the nurse walked out of the operating room, she saw Lu Huaijin waiting at the door. Lu Huaijin excitedly took the child from the nurse.
He held the baby carefully. The baby was so small and soft that Lu Huaijin was really afraid that his rough hands would hurt the child.
After holding the child firmly, he saw the nurse was about to leave, so he asked hurriedly:
"Is my wife okay?"
Few people hold the baby boy in their arms and still think about their wives. Seeing the good man, the nurse's attitude is also a little better:
"He's in good spirits. There are many doctors inside, don't worry."
Mother Lu also came over:
"The boy looks like his mother. The child is very good-looking."
Lu Huaijin glanced at the baby, who was still a little red, and felt that he was much inferior to his own wife.
It was difficult to respond to this, so I didn't reply.
The man from the next ward came out. He had just heard what the nurse said and knew that their family had given birth to a boy, so he also came over:
"Congratulations, brother. This is your nth baby."
"First child."
The man looked at the baby in their hands with even more attachment. The baby looked really good, and most importantly, it was a boy.
He stared at the baby's lower body, as if he could see the baby through the blanket:
"Then your wife is really pregnant. My wife has given birth to four girls but no boy yet. By the way, why hasn't your wife given birth yet?"
Lu Huaijin didn't like what he said and frowned. After noticing his gaze, he covered himself more tightly with the blanket:
"She hasn't finished giving birth yet."
The man's mouth looks like an egg:
"Twins? That's amazing."
"Triplets."
Now it was his turn to open his eyes wide again:
"This...if they were all boys, wouldn't you be so happy?"
Lu Huaijin's brows looked like they could pinch a fly to death. He was originally in a good mood, but now that this man had messed things up, his mood became a little messy.
On such a happy day, Lu Huaijin didn't want to quarrel with anyone.
She sat on the bench holding the child and waited.
Mother Lu took out a red egg from her pocket:
"Let's count it as a good luck. Your wife is about to give birth. You should go back and take care of her. You can't leave anyone by your side right now."
The middle-aged man took it, squatted down without paying attention, smashed it directly, peeled off the eggshell and ate it himself:
"Don't mention it. My wife is pregnant with her fourth child and I don't know why she hasn't given birth yet. She's even slower than your first child."
Mother Lu twitched her lips. She didn't give the eggs to his wife, but ate them herself.
This man is quite uncouth.
At this time, an old woman came over. She looked about the same as the middle-aged man:
"Tsk, I think she just wants to spend money. Everyone gives birth in the village, but she is so precious that she has to give birth in the hospital."
The middle-aged man was somewhat helpless:
"Didn't mother say that this baby must be a son, so she sent it here?"
At this point, the old woman smiled again and said proudly to Mother Lu:
"This baby is real. I told an experienced elder in the village that from the back, it looks like she is not pregnant. Her belly is pointed, so it looks like she is having a son. I even asked a Chinese doctor to check her pulse, and it is certain."
"Besides, she only likes to eat sour apricots and won't eat anything spicy! This baby must be a boy."
The tone was full of resentment and pride:
"She is such a pain in the ass. She even asked me to bring her food so early in the morning."
Mother Lu has both a son and a daughter, and she doesn't think there is any difference between a boy and a girl. Judging from her son Lu Huaijin's previous personality, having a child is good enough, so why would he pick a bicycle?
"Then go back and take care of your wife."
After saying this, Mother Lu also lost her patience to perform with them and focused on waiting for Xu Niannian to give birth.
The second baby came out faster. I only heard a cry from inside, and after a while, the nurse came out holding the baby.
This time, Lu's mother ran faster than her son:
"Congratulations, it's a son this time."
"This son is a stubborn one. He didn't cry when he was born. Our director patted his feet a few times before he started to cry."
Mother Lu asked hurriedly:
"How is our child developing?"
"Okay, our director said they don't look like triplets, they look almost like singletons!"
The nurse said and went back to the delivery room.
Mother Lu looked at the little crybaby with a few perfunctory tears on his face and took out a small handkerchief to wipe them away.
I looked closely at the little mouth, eyebrows, and eyes:
"Our second baby is so cute."
Lu Huaijin's heart sank. It was not that he favored girls over boys, but when Xu Niannian was pregnant, she prepared a lot of things for the girl.
It’s pink, and I have high expectations for the little girl.
What if no girl is born this time?
I don't know if he will catch me and give me another life...
