"You brat, the water's already cold and you're still giving it to your wife? Go boil a new pot!" Zhou Ping slapped her own son on the head without any hesitation.
With ten days left until her due date, Zhou Ping was really worried and specially put aside all her business to come over.
"Mom, this is warm, I can drink it." An Youhe leaned against the headboard, her eyes full of heartache.
Zhou Ping turned and grasped her daughter-in-law's hand: "It's alright, you went through a lot during childbirth, what's a little bit of this?"
Ye Zhou raised an eyebrow: "Mom, you're so biased. I feel like a wronged little wife right now."
Zhou Ping's sharp gaze swept over them: "What? Are you implying that I'm bad?"
Ye Zhou surrendered with both hands. Never argue with a woman, or you'll only end up getting hurt.
Back when Ye Zhou was very young, Zhou Ping often boasted to relatives and friends that he was obedient and sensible and that she had never hit him. However, during this period, his mother hit him more times than she had in all of his childhood.
Ye Zhou also stopped working and stayed at home, since it would only be a few days.
When Zhou Ping went out to buy groceries, An You waved to Ye Zhou.
Ye Zhou walked over, assuming his wife was going to the bathroom.
An Youhe's belly is now so big it can't be described as a watermelon. The little one is also very restless, kicking and punching, keeping her awake most of the night.
"Come here, let me hold you." Ye Zhou reached out his hand to An Youhe on the bed.
An Youhe smiled slightly, shook her head, took out her hand from behind her back, and opened her palm to reveal a piece of candy.
Ye Zhou smiled, sat down on the edge of the bed, and ate the candy from An Youhe's hand, making the girl's palm itch.
"It's very sweet," Ye Zhou whispered, leaning closer to his wife's nose.
Since her mother came to live with them, the two of them have rarely had time alone together, and they have to sleep in separate beds because Zhou Ping is afraid that Ye Zhou's extravagant spending will be detrimental to her precious daughter-in-law.
Ye Zhou felt a soft touch on his head as the girl gently stroked it. "Touching it will make it stop hurting."
Ye Zhou revealed a mouthful of white teeth and pressed his lips, which were inches away from hers, against hers.
"Honey, have you decided on a name for our baby?"
"I've already decided. The boy will be named Gou Dan (Dog Egg) so he'll be easy to raise, and the girl will be named Ye Anfeng (Ye Anfeng) so she can be as free as the wind."
An Youhe pouted, "You can't call a boy that. I thought of that a long time ago. If it's a boy, we'll name him Ye Chen. He himself is the sun."
"Okay, it's settled then."
...
Inside the operating room.
Ye Zhou put on medical protective clothing and held An Youhe's hand tightly.
The girl's forehead was covered in glistening beads of sweat. She bit her lip to stop herself from screaming out in pain, but she just tightened her grip even more.
"Wife, scream it out, or you can bite my wrist."
Ye Zhou was equally nervous, spreading his arm out to An Youhe's mouth. The girl was covered in sweat, and her lips were bitten until they lost all color.
Ye Zhou felt just as bad as An Youhe was in pain.
The girl frowned, and finally couldn't hold back any longer, and shouted out.
Ye Zhou repeated one sentence, "We will never have any more children."
With a loud cry from the baby.
When the doctor showed Ye Zhou the little guy with bloodstains on his body.
A sudden dizziness.
Ye Zhou fainted.
...
"Doctor, how is my wife?"
The first thing Ye Zhou did upon waking up was to find a doctor.
The bespectacled male doctor took off his mask, smiled and shook his head, "You two are truly the most vulnerable father and the strongest mother I've ever met. Don't worry, mother and daughter are safe."
Ignoring the doctor's teasing, Ye Zhou rushed to An Youhe's ward.
As the door opened, bright sunlight streamed in through the window, giving the girl's face an angelic glow.
Her almond-shaped eyes were like a pool of water, absolutely beautiful.
She held the baby in her arms and smiled at Ye Zhou.
That was a mother's tenderness.
"Ye Zhou, look how beautiful she is."
In that instant, Ye Zhou's mind completely stopped thinking, and he walked towards An Youhe.
In the pure white swaddling clothes, the baby slightly opened its eyes, its big eyes rolling around, and then smiled contentedly.
"Very beautiful, just like her mother."
Ye Zhou kissed An Youhe on the forehead, and then carefully kissed the little princess.
...
Why is the little one so quiet today?
Ye Zhou brought out the chicken soup and placed it on the dining table. He saw An Youhe sitting on the sofa and making a shushing gesture at him.
Ye Zhou smiled slightly and walked over carefully. The little guy had his eyes closed and there were still milk stains on the corners of his mouth. He was really using all his strength to suckle.
"I want some too," Ye Zhou started acting like a scoundrel.
"Honey, you can't fight with the kids for it."
"Let me taste it."
An Youhe pursed her lips, her cheeks slightly flushed, "Just, just a small bite, the baby will cry if he's hungry."
"I got up in the middle of the night to make her formula when she was hungry," Ye Zhou said readily, then pounced on her like a hungry wolf.
...
On the weekend, Ye Zhou pushed the stroller and took An Youhe, who had been cooped up at home for a long time, to the park for a walk.
An elderly man approached us on the street. He was slightly hunched over and was cheerfully pushing an elderly woman in a wheelchair, explaining to her about a koala climbing a tree not far away.
An Youhe hugged Ye Zhou's arm and rested her head on his arm: "Honey, they look so happy."
The old man pushed his wheelchair over and stopped next to the stroller.
The old lady reached out her hand to the adorable baby, and as if sensing her thoughts, little Anfeng grabbed one of the old lady's fingers and giggled.
