He strode forward, pointed to the chicken soup in his hand and said: "I stewed the old hen. Is Ling Ling awake? Is she feeling better? Hurry and pour some for her to eat."
"No." Cheng Tianyuan shook his head: "The doctor said that she can only drink a little water for the time being. She will start drinking a little rice milk tomorrow afternoon, and she can't eat anything else fatty."
Cheng Muhai couldn't help but frown: "It's been two days since birth and I still can't eat. This kind of caesarean section is too painful!"
Cheng Tianyuan waved to him and led him over to the balcony.
"Dad, there is something I need to discuss with you."
Cheng Muhai knew his son very well. Unless it was an extremely important and prudent matter, he would not look like this.
"What's the matter? Tell me."
Cheng Tianyuan's eyes moved slightly and he whispered: "Ranran and I are surnamed, and Yangyang and Lingling. Now there is a boy and a girl. I plan to have the boy named after us and the little girl named Lingling."
Cheng Muhai was slightly surprised and stared for a while without speaking.
Cheng Tianyuan looked into his eyes and murmured: "I just said it in the ward, and my father-in-law and mother-in-law didn't dare to agree. I told Ling Ling that if there are many children, half of them will follow me and half of them will follow her. Dad, we
The family has two children, but the mother-in-law’s family only has one daughter, Ling Ling..."
"It goes without saying." Cheng Muhai said solemnly: "You young people can do whatever you decide. I have no objection."
Cheng Tianyuan was a little confused and seemed a little unhappy when he heard his tone. He didn't know how to continue.
"Dad...are you unhappy?"
Cheng Muhai lowered his eyes and shook his head: "No, I just think it's okay. Your mother and I are both old, and now you and Lingling are the ones who make the decisions in our family. The child is born to you, so it's up to you to decide. We old people interfere too much
If it were more, it would be bad. If it was our hometown in the past, then I would definitely not be able to agree. If such things spread, our family will be laughed at. You will also be laughed at, not just our family. But we are not here now
Home."
Cheng Tianyuan did not dare to look directly at his father and whispered: "Dad, I didn't discuss it with you in advance and said it on impulse. But I promised Ling Ling before, and I can't break my promise. In addition, she will bear children for me.
It's really hard. As you can see, she stayed in the hospital for almost two months when she was pregnant with twins. She had her stomach cut open to give birth to the children. I have three sons and one daughter, all of whom she sacrificed her life to give birth to. I... I feel sorry for her.
.”
"Yes." Cheng Muhai nodded: "I know. I feel sorry for her too. She still hasn't woken up since yesterday. The doctor said this is a risky operation, and I was also present."
"Dad..." Cheng Tianyuan still wanted to speak.
"Needless to say." Cheng Muhai smiled slightly: "Whatever you think is good. Your mother and I are old and can't make any money. We can only help you take care of your children so that you can have a hot meal when you go home.
. We can’t help much, so naturally we can’t say too much. Ah Wu and his family have contributed a lot to our family being what it is today. Without Lingling, our family might still be living in the two old shabby apartments in Chengjia Village.
House. Your father and I are not unkind people. For our family to be like this, I could never have dreamed of it being so good before."
Although the old man's words did not convey what he meant, Cheng Tianyuan could hear his father's inner words.
He is old now and it is not his decision to make the decision in this family, so he respects the decision of his son and daughter-in-law.
In addition, my daughter-in-law contributed so much to the family and gave birth to four grandchildren in succession, which is indispensable.
If you can have one more child with the daughter-in-law's surname, you can quietly repay the kindness of your father-in-law and mother-in-law.
Cheng Tianyuan smiled and said warmly: "Thank you, Dad."
Cheng Muhai was not used to such politeness, so he turned around and entered the ward carrying a thermos bottle.
Xue Zhilan was alone and bored. When he saw him coming in, he hurriedly pulled him and said he wanted to play chess.
Cheng Muhai chuckled and said, "I want to too! But I didn't bring it with me!"
Xue Zhilan hurriedly said: "Ayuan, when you are full, go and give us a set. There should be some for sale on the street."
"Okay." Cheng Tianyuan readily agreed.
Cheng Muhai came forward and looked at the two plump and tender grandsons with a smile, and his face burst into laughter.
"Is this a boy doll - the third child?"
"No." Liu Ying replied with a smile: "This is the fourth child, and the younger sister is here!"
Cheng Muhai chuckled and praised: "Beautiful! Very handsome!"
Liu Ying's eyes were filled with pride, and she whispered: "She will be the one who will grow best in the future. As a girl, she will become even more beautiful when she grows up!"
"It's okay, there should be three brothers to protect her." Xue Zhilan said: "She will be protected as a little princess."
Everyone laughed.
The fourth child was not woken up, but the third child was woken up and started crying.
The child's cry was loud and clear, perhaps because the mother and child had a heart-to-heart connection, and Xue Ling was suddenly frightened and woke up.
Liu Ying hurriedly picked up her grandson and said, "It's time to drink milk. I must be hungry."
Cheng Muhai said: "I'm going to rush!"
"Old guy, you just came in from outside, remember to wash your hands!" Liu Ying reminded: "I have washed the bottles, be careful with your hands."
Cheng Muhai responded with a smile.
Xue Ling smiled softly and asked, "How many times has this been your first time drinking milk?"
When she spoke, Cheng Tianyuan quickly turned around, leaned close to him and asked, "How do you feel? Are you feeling better? Does your stomach still hurt?"
Xue Ling chuckled and shook his head: "It won't hurt if you hang yourself from the water."
Cheng Muhai frowned and whispered: "My face is too pale..."
Xue Zhilan held his waist and said warmly: "This is how it was just after the operation. Although it is a childbirth, a caesarean section is still a major operation. It involves incising several layers of the belly, taking out the child, adding a ligation, and putting it all together - it's really embarrassing.
"
Cheng Tianyuan whispered in distress: "I'll help you up, do you want me?"
"No." Xue Ling breathed a sigh of relief and whispered: "I feel like my lower body can't move yet."
"Then you have to move." Xue Zhilan explained: "The anesthetic has worn off. You can turn over gently and move around slowly to avoid adhesions in the future."
"What is that?" Liu Ying asked worriedly.
Xue Zhilan smiled bitterly and shook his head: "This is by no means a good situation. Avoid it if you can."
Cheng Tianyuan frowned and asked: "Uncle, when can I move? Lingling said she is still feeling uncomfortable! Such a big wound - it's scary to look at it."
"Don't be afraid." Xue Zhilan said firmly: "If you just came out of the operating room yesterday, you can stay still. But now that the anesthesia has worn off, you have to turn over and move appropriately, otherwise it will be too late."
Although Xue Ling was weak, he did not dare to go against the doctor's advice.
"Then you help me flip it gently. When I have the strength, I will do it myself."
Cheng Tianyuan had no choice but to step forward and gently help her turn around.
He didn't dare to use force and was afraid of making things worse, so he carefully lifted her body and slowly slid over.
"Daughter-in-law? How is it? Does it hurt too much?"
Xue Ling took a breath and whispered: "It won't hurt too much...it's okay."
The tips of Cheng Tianyuan's hands trembled slightly, and he did not dare to touch her again.
"Uncle, please slow down. She seems to be uncomfortable."
"It's okay." Xue Ling whispered: "Now I will lie on my side. When I get used to it, you can help me lift it back."
Liu Ying held her grandson in her arms while breastfeeding, and while watching their interaction, her eyes couldn't help but turn red.
"This - it's too painful, such a big wound... I still have to move!"
Xue Zhilan comforted her with a gentle voice: "My mother-in-law, this is for Ling Ling's good, I have to do this."
Cheng Muhai couldn't bear to look at it and turned away.
How painful it would be for a good person to make such a big wound on his belly!
