While they were talking, Gong Kaizhou and Gong Chengjun, father and son, were standing by the window, their eyes fixed on the trees outside.
To be more precise, it falls on the new buds that have just grown on the branches.
Because of the strange weather changes before, when the third child was born, they were distracted and focused on the outside.
As a result, they saw new green buds emerging from the tips of the originally withered branches, and a rich aroma of grass and trees rushed in from the gaps in the window, hitting their noses directly.
Thunder roars, wind howls, and winter begins!
This strange phenomenon of heaven and earth, accompanied by the birth of three children, made the Gong family father and son feel mixed emotions of joy and sorrow.
The good news is that these three children are destined to be extraordinary in the future, but the worry is that the situation is special and things will happen in the future that the Gong family cannot control.
When Gong Wantang came out carrying the third child, Lu Jingchuan spoke first: "Mom, how is Linglong?"
"Linglong is doing well. She had a safe and normal birth. The doctor is cleaning her up and she'll be out soon."
Seeing that his wife was safe, Lu Jingchuan felt relieved and asked about Sanbao's gender: "Mom, is Sanbao a son or a daughter?"
"you guess!"
Gong Wantang pulled the quilt to prevent him from seeing the child's face.
Seeing the baby wrapped in a pink and blue blanket, Lu Jingchuan was overjoyed: "It's a daughter."
"Mother-in-law, is this really a granddaughter?"
Zhou Lanqin also came over and put the second child in Mrs. Lu's hands, "Mom, please help me hold the second child, and I will hold my granddaughter."
Seeing that they were looking forward to having a daughter, Gong Wantang smiled and placed the third child in her hands. She stood there silently, watching their expressions with a smile.
Zhou Lanqin and her son put their heads together, their eyes fixed on the third child in the cradle.
Seeing that he looked exactly like Dabao and Erbao, with his eyes open, it was obvious that he was a boy. Lu Jingchuan smiled and tapped Sanbao's nose, "He's also a naughty boy."
Sanbao pursed his lips, seemed to glance at the people around him, and then closed his eyes again.
Soon Gong Linglong was pushed out. Except for her face, all other parts of her body were wrapped tightly. She didn't feel any pain during the birth and didn't use much strength. She was in good physical and mental condition at the moment. She chatted with the elders as soon as she came out.
After sending the mother and her two children to the ward and letting them sit for a while, Zhou Lanqin asked everyone to go back first, and the mother and her two children would stay here to take care of them.
It was getting late. After they left, Zhou Lanqin urged her daughter-in-law, "Linglong, go to bed and get some rest. The three children will be clamoring for food soon. Hurry up and take a nap."
"good."
Gong Linglong was feeling a little sleepy at this time. She turned her head to glance at her sons sleeping in a row on the bed next to her, and fell asleep with a smile on her face.
"Mom, you go to sleep too. I'll stay here. When they start crying for milk, I'll call you to get up and help." Lu Jingchuan whispered to her.
"Okay, I'll go get some sleep and switch with you in the second half of the night."
All three children had loud voices. When the first one cried out because he was hungry and wet, the other two started crying too.
This was Lu Jingchuan's first time being a father and he had no experience at all. He was very flustered at first, but fortunately Zhou Lanqin was there to help teach him, and he gradually got into the groove.
"Mom, he doesn't want to drink my milk."
Gong Linglong woke up when they were howling. She sat up and breastfed the baby in her arms in a standard posture, but Dabao refused to open his mouth and even moved his little head to the side.
Zhou Lanqin came over to help, but Dabao was fidgeting and refusing to cooperate. After trying twice, he seemed impatient and howled in a low voice.
"Forget it, if he doesn't drink, just feed him formula."
Zhou Lanqin prepared two bottles of milk in advance, fearing that she would not be able to feed them all. Besides, breast milk was not enough to feed three children, so she had to use some milk powder.
When she brought Dabao over and put the bottle into his little mouth, he immediately started drinking with a chuckle.
"Linglong, Dabao, drink the milk powder."
"Okay, let him drink the formula. I'll feed Erbao and Xiaobao."
However, when Lu Jingchuan brought the second baby over, he refused to drink and resisted even more strongly than the first baby, his tender little head kept nodding to the side.
The eldest child refused to drink, the second child resisted, and the youngest child also kept silent and refused to drink.
"What's going on?"
Gong Linglong was really confused and frowned: "Mom, does breast milk smell bad?"
This was the first time Zhou Lanqin had seen something like this. Seeing an empty bottle next to them, she said, "Linglong, squeeze the breast milk into the bottle, and Jingchuan, you feed it to them. See if they drink it."
Gong Linglong tried it first and prepared 20 milliliters.
Lu Jingchuan took the bottle and stuffed it into Xiaobao's mouth. He didn't resist and ate happily.
Gong Linglong: "...Mom, he drinks."
Zhou Lanqin smiled when she heard this, "Okay, these three little ones are different from other children. If they need to be bottle-fed, you can squeeze them into the bottle in advance from now on."
Gong Linglong felt a strange feeling in her heart. She had noticed the resistance on the faces of her three sons and the light in their narrow eyes. Now, a guess that made her scalp tingle came to her mind.
No, no way...
Seeing her lowering her head, Lu Jingchuan didn't know what she was thinking, so he said, "Linglong, lie down and rest. I'll feed them milk powder."
Gong Linglong adjusted her mood, looked up and said, "Brother Jing, throw me a bottle and I'll prepare some more."
Newborn babies don’t drink much, and they fall asleep after drinking enough. However, they start to make noises again after about two hours. Lu Jingchuan quickly prepares the milk powder and feeds them one by one, while Zhou Lanqin helps change their diapers and coax them to sleep.
When Gong Wantang came to deliver breakfast, the four of them, mother and children, were sleeping soundly. Zhou Lanqin and Lu Jingchuan came out quietly, carrying thermos buckets and eating outside.
When Gong Linglong woke up, she saw her mother sitting beside the bed. "Mom, you're here so early."
"It's late. It's half past seven."
Seeing that she was in good spirits and had recovered well, Gong Wantang stood up and poured her some hot water, saying softly, "My mother-in-law is having breakfast outside. Jingchuan finished eating first and went to wash the diapers he changed last night."
Gong Linglong lifted the quilt, slowly sat up, and discussed with her: "Mom, can I be discharged from the hospital today?"
"Don't rush to be discharged. Stay for another day or two."
"Mom, I'm fine. I feel my strength has returned after a good night's sleep. I don't like the smell of hospital disinfectant. I think the three babies are healthy too. There's no need to stay here. It's more comfortable at home, and you don't have to brave the wind and snow to walk back and forth."
Seeing that she wanted to go back, Gong Wantang put down his work, came over to check her pulse, and confirmed that it was steady before nodding: "Talk to Jingchuan first. If he agrees, you can be discharged today."
Lu Jingchuan was sure that she was fine, so he naturally agreed. After the doctor issued the discharge certificate, he immediately went to handle the formalities.
So, that morning, the four of them, mother and children, were taken back home, and Gong Linglong also comfortably recuperated at home.
