The warm winter sun is pouring down, and the room is bright and comfortable. At this time, the windows are half open and a slight breeze blows the curtains, which dissipates the coldness of the past few days. However, the faint smell of disinfectant around the room ruins the atmosphere.
But none of this mattered. After Xia Jun said that, the ward was silent for a moment.
Lin Zhi smiled and said, "Where is the child?"
Xia Jun calmed down and her voice became softer, "Because she was born prematurely, she is still in the conservatory. The doctor will observe her for two days."
Lin Zhi, "That's true."
……
Except for Song Yingwan, everyone else had to rush back to work in the afternoon, so they sat for a while and then went back.
Zhou Zichuan leaned back, looked at the woman lying on the hospital bed and asked, "Xiaoyun, do you want some water?"
She closed her eyes and said nothing. There was no emotion on Su Jing's little face.
Zhou Zichuan sighed, then stood up to go out.
At this time, a voice came from behind, "Go and see the baby." There was no longer the tenderness in the words.
Zhou Zichuan didn't have the energy to pay attention to this at this time. He just said happily, "Okay, I'll go right away."
Xia Jun didn't speak anymore, but his hands hidden under the quilt tightened.
Two days later, Zhou Zichuan came back with a wife and a daughter. In fact, normal families, especially country people, would find a midwife to give birth at home. Even if it was not possible, they would go to the hospital to give birth and then come back. Like Xia Jun stayed in the hospital like this for several days. People in Liujia Village felt that she was a bit delicate, and they could say anything for a while.
But most of them still envy people from the city. No matter what, they are still different from the country people like them. Country people usually don't bother to buy medicine when they see a doctor, let alone go to the hospital.
After coming back, Xia Jun stayed in confinement peacefully, only worrying about herself and her children. She would call Zhou Zichuan if she needed anything, and she no longer wanted to make everything easier for the other party like before.
Zhou Zichuan may also know that he broke her heart on the day of delivery, and Xia Jun is still in confinement, so he has not shown any impatience for so many days, and does whatever Xia Jun says.
The meals he didn't want to cook before were cooked, the clothes he didn't want to wash were washed, he had to comfort the children when they cried, clean up the children when they vomited, and work during the day, so although he didn't say anything for a while, , but the whole person has lost weight.
Once when Song Yingwan saw him, he couldn't help but sigh, as if his essence had been sucked dry.
But all these efforts were not in vain. The child was very cute, and the educated youth had no roots in the village, so Xia Jun and Zhou Zichuan did not plan to make a big fuss. When the child was one month old, they invited these educated youths to have a meal.
Naturally, Song Yingwan and Xie Ci also went. It was too cold to carry the baby out, so the male educated youth sat around the main room and talked. The female educated youth didn't have any scruples and swarmed in to see the baby.
Xia Jun and Zhou Zichuan took good care of the child. The child had grown a little by now. He had a round face, long and dense eyelashes, and a pair of big watery eyes as pure as water. Just one look at them made people happy. .
Song Yingwan couldn't help but be attracted to look at it for a while. Tang Xiaotang couldn't restrain his emotions and felt that his heart was about to melt.
Pulling Song Yingwan around, she said, "Wanwan, look at how cute she is!"
"And why does it smell like milk?"
"Also, her eyes are so big, I want it too..."
Yang Xue listened, chuckled helplessly, and whispered, "If you really like it, why don't you give birth to one yourself?"
Tang Xiaotang blushed, covered his ears and said coquettishly, "What nonsense are you talking about..."
Seeing her like this, Yang Xue poked her arm, "Are you still shy?"
Tang Xiaotang, "I hate it~"
Yang Xue rubbed her arms, "Hey——"
As the New Year was approaching, Song Yingwan and Xie Ci took the train back to celebrate the New Year. This time they still went to Song Yingwan's parents first, taking the same route as last year, and then went to Beijing after the New Year.
Originally, Song Yingwan wanted to reverse the order, but Xie said that the two of them would definitely go to the capital after returning to the city. She would have less time to go back to see Zhang Ru and Song's father, so she took advantage of the opportunity now. Let’s celebrate the New Year there first.
Song Yingwan thought the same thing. After all, she was married to Xie Ci. No matter whether she would go to Beijing in the future, the chances of celebrating the New Year with her family would become less and less.
Since he had been here once before, and the capital city always called him to show concern this year, Song Yingwan felt much more at ease this time.
After the New Year, the two of them came back without staying much longer, but fortunately, the dawn was about to come.
The flowers bloomed and fell. Grandma Xie and Grandpa Xie heard the news first and immediately sent a telegram asking Xie Ci and Song Yingwan to call the next day.
Although he didn't say anything explicitly, Song Yingwan roughly guessed it and felt a lot more stable.
Early the next morning, Xie Ci took Song Yingwan to the commune by bicycle.
After the call was connected, Grandpa Xie answered the call and said, "I have sent you two a lot of information. You should do nothing else for a while and concentrate on reading."
Even if there are some words on the phone, I can't say them out. After all, the news has not been completely released yet.
Song Yingwan had been mentally prepared for a long time, so he didn't panic, and his thanks showed his sharp and outstanding mind and wisdom. He could guess the general idea based on these two sentences alone.
But he was still inevitably a little surprised. He glanced at Song Yingwan before asking, "Grandpa, what do you mean?"
There was silence for a while, and then he said in a deep voice, "That's right."
Xie Ci's breath stopped and he said seriously, "I understand."
Grandpa Xie sighed, "Don't have such a big psychological burden. Just do your best. Your grandma and I don't have any big demands on you."
He bowed his head in thanks, raised his lips and smiled, "Grandpa, Wanwan and I have never given up on improving ourselves in the past few years. Don't worry, I won't embarrass you."
Grandpa Xie cleared his throat and said in a loud voice, "Don't talk so much, or you will really embarrass my old face when the time comes!"
Thank you and said slowly, "Didn't you just say that you don't have many demands on us?"
Grandpa Xie said angrily, "I said the request was not big, but I didn't say there was no request?"
Seeing the grandfather and grandson quarreling while talking, Grandma Xie grabbed the microphone impatiently and said gently, "Wanwan."
Xie Ci smiled and handed the phone to Song Yingwan.
Song Yingwan chatted with the two old men for a while. They asked them not to be nervous in and out of their words, as if they were sending their children to the examination room. Song Yingwan responded to them all with a smile.
But it’s indeed time to go to the exam room.
After hanging up the phone, the two of them hurried back without staying in the commune.
