As soon as Ms. Meng came back, the ward became more lively.
Dadan, Erdan and Qian Duoshu couldn't wait to share with her the cute little movements that Li Tuaner made after waking up and falling asleep.
Ms. Meng listened with a smile and took out a few pieces of candy for the three children, saying, "Eat them first to fill your stomach."
After distributing the candies, Ms. Meng looked at Su Qinghu and asked with a smile, "Are you getting used to it?"
Su Qinghu nodded, her beautiful eyes slightly longer at the end, "Fortunately, the chicken soup dad made was very delicious, and all the oil was skimmed off."
There is no problem except that the food is almost not salty.
But she also knew that it was better to eat light food after giving birth.
Ms. Meng smiled and said, "That's good."
She glanced at Chen Bai, who looked very proud, as if trying to take credit for it.
Ms. Meng laughed inwardly, but she didn't follow his compliment. Instead, she asked, "Who will take the children to dinner?"
Chen Lie: "Mom, you and Dad should take them out for dinner. Bring me some when you come back."
Ms. Meng looked at her son, then at her daughter-in-law, and nodded. "That's fine. But... can you do it alone?"
Chen Lie: “I can do it.”
Dadan, Erdan and Qian Duoshu were all sensible children, and they followed Ms. Meng and Chen Bai out.
Only Su Qinghu, Chen Lie and the new member Li Tuaner were left in the ward.
Su Qinghu: "Who chose the child's nickname?"
I usually call him baby or darling, and I haven’t thought of giving him a nickname.
Chen Lie held Li Tuan'er in his arms and sat down beside Su Qinghu's bed. "Erdan got it."
"He said he didn't want his brother to be called something like Maodan, Goudan, and Donkey Egg."
Chen Lie couldn't help laughing. "I originally wanted to wait until you woke up before deciding on the baby's nickname, but everyone got used to calling you that before you even woke up."
Su Qinghu looked at Li Tuan'er who was being held by him and smiled, "It's fine."
It is indeed much better than the nicknames that Erdan resisted.
Chen Lie saw that although her face was not as rosy as before, her eyes showed good spirits. She was completely relaxed, and her movements while holding the child were gentler, with most of the stiffness gone.
Seeing him staring at her, Su Qinghu smiled, "Why are you looking at me like that? Were you worried before?"
Chen Lie nodded honestly, "I am indeed worried. You went to sleep without eating, and when you woke up you just fed the child and went back to sleep..."
This is different from her usual self.
Su Qinghu's eyes were filled with a deep smile, "I'm afraid that once I fall asleep..."
Before she could finish, she was interrupted by Chen Lie's suddenly serious face.
She: "Okay, okay, I won't tell you, I won't tell you."
Chen Lie's expression eased slightly.
He really didn't want to hear those words from her mouth.
Life and death are very serious matters.
Su Qinghu: "Give me the child, and step aside."
I just checked the time and it’s time for the child’s meal.
It was because he was well-behaved that he didn't cry, but his little brows and mouth looked a little aggrieved.
Chen Lie carefully put the child on the bed, then helped adjust Su Qinghu's posture. He hesitated whether to help her lift up her clothes, when he saw his girl looking at him unkindly, with warning eyes.
Even though Su Qinghu had seen breastfeeding in public, she was not used to it, even if it was just Chen Lie.
Chen Lie didn't leave, he just pulled the curtain. He was still inside the curtain, but his back was turned.
Actually...we were very open with each other during the Chinese New Year...
I've seen everything I should and shouldn't have seen, and I've memorized it all...
As soon as Li Tuan'er was put down, his hands started moving. When he smelled the unique scent of his rations, he became obviously excited and his little mouth moved until he ate the rations.
Su Qinghu poked his soft little face with her fingers. The little guy paused for a moment and then let her play.
"Li Tuan'er?"
Su Qinghu called him.
What did the little guy know? He only knew how to eat. So, he was completely indifferent to Su Qinghu's calls and finger harassment.
Chen Lie found it funny and wanted to turn around, but he was afraid that his girl would get angry with him, so he turned his back and spoke to her.
"Mom didn't explain it clearly before. If we were to hire a nanny, what would you value most?" Chen Lie asked.
Su Qinghu half-leaned up, looking at Chen Lie's broad back and narrow waist, and said slowly, "You need to have good personal hygiene habits, be able to take care of children, and be able to cook."
"She can take care of children. She has some basic knowledge of infant care."
"As for cooking, she doesn't have to be great, but she has to be average. After all, when she's busy, she might be needed to cook a few meals."
The money she paid to hire someone was higher than the market rate, and she planned to give bonuses based on performance, so it was reasonable for her to have higher demands.
Chen Lie: “I understand.”
"Hmm?" Su Qinghu looked at him, "Do you have a choice?"
Chen Lie: "No, but you can find someone based on this."
With specific requirements, you can find your goal quickly.
Su Qinghu's arm felt sore, so he switched sides and continued, "I have a feeling someone is playing tricks on me. Otherwise, how could they agree to everything and then refuse in the end? Ask someone to find out what's going on."
If we don't talk about invisible power and just talk about money, that's not how it should be.
Chen Lie: “Okay.”
"Do you want to tell your colleagues the good news?" Chen Lie thought for a moment, "Are there any teachers or classmates I need to say hello to?"
"No need, let us know before the full month." Now that she has just given birth, it will be enough for the relatives at home to know.
The two of them talked about the trivialities of life, which was quite enjoyable. After Li Tuaner had eaten his fill, Su Qinghu lay down directly.
It's hard to feed the baby while supporting yourself like this...
When Chen Lie heard the sound, he quickly turned around, tucked the quilt into Su Qinghu first, and then picked up the child without waiting for Su Qinghu to say anything, and burped the child clumsily but rhythmically.
He tried his strength on Erdan, and only burped the baby when Erdan felt it was okay.
But this was around nine o'clock.
Now, this is my second time. Compared to the first time, I have become much more skilled and have a more precise control over my strength.
Su Qinghu just smiled as she watched the tall and handsome man holding a little baby, carefully coaxing and patting the baby's burp.
It's a bit like when a tiger touches a little rabbit, wanting to touch it with its claws, but afraid of not being able to control the strength and hurting the little rabbit...
Chen Lie caught her gaze, lowered his eyes and looked over, only to see her smiling at him.
He didn't ask anything, but the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.
At this moment, Li Tuan'er was successfully burped.
Chen Lie changed the position of the little chestnut ball that was placed upright on his shoulder and held the girl in his arms.
Su Qinghu looked at him, and suddenly said, "I forgive you."
Chen Lie didn't know what she had forgiven him for, but he was still very happy. "Thank you."
"I'm sorry you haven't written to me or called me for a long time." Su Qinghu couldn't help laughing. "You're so hardworking at home. You've taken care of my parents and the children. I hardly have to think about anything."
During the few days he was at home, he cleaned the house and folded all the clothes neatly. He was like a super storage master.
My parents and great-aunt also sent the most suitable things according to my best needs.
