Chapter 195 Group photo
Looking at the tiny figure nestled against her chest, An Xiaoyue's heart softened like a pool of flowing water.
The pain of childbirth seemed to vanish the moment I saw Lucky.
Perhaps it's because of the effort required to be born that I'm lucky; now, hearing the familiar heartbeat, I can finally sleep peacefully.
Family and friends crowded around the hospital bed, their eyes fixed on the two babies on it, and everyone's face was filled with happy smiles.
"Xiaoyue, how are you feeling?" Fang Mei asked.
She is not a traditional Chinese medicine doctor, so she cannot directly take Xiaoyue's pulse to understand her physical condition like her father-in-law and husband.
An Xiaoyue: "I feel normal."
She spoke so lightly, but Fang Mei's eyes secretly reddened.
Anyone who has given birth knows that no woman's private parts don't hurt during childbirth.
"Take good care of yourself during your postpartum period. Your grandfather and uncle will take care of you, and you will definitely recover well."
"I definitely will." She truly felt everyone's love for her. "My aunt will also cook delicious food for me, and I'm sure I'll recover very well."
Fang Mei was overjoyed by the flattery; girls are indeed better than sons, and their words are so sweet.
Zhong Lingxi stood by the bed, staring intently at Lucky in her arms.
The arrival of a new life is more moving than miraculous.
"It's so small!" Zhong Ling exclaimed happily.
She wanted to witness firsthand how her tiny baby would grow into a tall, handsome young man.
His parents have to put in a lot of effort to ensure that he grows up safely and healthily.
"Your face is so pretty, not wrinkled at all. After washing it a few more times, you'll look even more handsome." Fu Jinyun looked at you for a while before showing a look of satisfaction.
With his great-grandson born and his grandson now having a complete family, he felt both grateful and at peace.
Leng Yushan: "He slept so soundly with his mother right after he was born. He'll be an easy child to take care of in the future."
……
Everyone chimed in, discussing the newborn baby.
"Has she given birth yet?" A series of hurried footsteps accompanied by An Jiaren's anxious voice came from behind.
Leng Shize grabbed An Jiaren's hand and rushed over.
"Oh, come quick!" Fang Mei heard the voice and immediately made room for the two of them to see their precious daughter.
An Jiaren broke free from Leng Shize and grasped Xiaoyue's hands, which still had an IV drip in them. "Baby, Mommy is late."
An Jia felt guilty because she hadn't been there in time for her daughter's childbirth, such a significant event.
An Xiaoyue took in her mother's emotions. Feeling sorry for her mother's worry and anxiety along the way, she smiled and comforted her.
"Mom, the delivery went smoothly, and both I and Lucky are doing well."
After not seeing her daughter for more than half a year, An Jiaren felt that her daughter was still the same daughter, but the changes were also obvious.
Her eyes and brows were more cheerful and gentle than before, her childishness had faded, and she had gained a more feminine beauty.
This discovery made Anjia people uneasy.
My daughter is growing up, and I don't have many days left to spend with her. I need to get my second brother transferred back to Beijing as soon as possible.
She wanted to live with her family, see them every day, and have a lively family time together.
An Xiaoyue saw Leng Shize, who had squeezed to the side of the bed, and said, "Dad."
The baby was sleeping on his chest, while Leng Shi lowered his voice and said, "It's good that mother and child are safe. Your mother was worried the whole way."
Xiaoyue needs a quiet environment to rest after giving birth; if we keep talking about this, it will never end.
"Alright, alright, everyone's seen it. Let's take a group photo and then everyone get out," Leng Shide said.
"I'll take pictures for everyone." Ji Yubai, ever observant, called out to everyone, "Get into position."
Zhong Lingxi subconsciously tidied Xiaoyue's forehead hair, braids, and clothes before standing aside with satisfaction, offering her spot to the two families for taking photos.
Leng Fang pressed a button on the armrest to raise the head of An Xiaoyue's bed, ensuring that Xiaoyue and Lucky could be captured on camera.
Everyone wanted to let Xiaoyue rest quietly, and in accordance with the order of seniority, everyone quickly took their positions and surrounded Xiaoyue's bed.
"One, two, three, happy!" With Ji Yubai's command, the sound of camera shutters clicking rang out.
Everyone cooperated actively.
Ji Yubai, an experienced photographer, took three photos in quick succession and then handed his phone to Fu Shengyang, asking, "Brother Shengyang, take a look, is this okay?"
Fu Shengyang glanced at it quickly and confirmed that Xiaoyue's face was clear, without any closed eyes or blurred facial features. The photo was usable. "That's it."
"It's our turn."
Ji Yubai shoved his phone into Fu Shengyang's hand, then pulled Zhong Lingxi to stand quickly by Xiaoyue's bedside, as if afraid that if they were a second too late, they would miss their chance.
“Brother Sheng Yang, please take a picture of us too.”
Ji Yubai shoved Zhong Lingxi into Xiaoyue's bedside and stood down next to her.
"Brother Shengyang, you can take pictures now."
Zhong Lingxi was secretly pleased with herself; Ji Yubai was just that good.
She's easygoing, but she can also be sensitive.
She also wanted to take a picture with Xiaoyue, but due to Fu Shengyang's status as president, she couldn't say it outright.
But Ji Yubai understood her. She was transparent in front of Ji Yubai. He knew her difficulties and fears, and quietly fought for her.
He and Fu Shengyang are like brothers, so it's perfectly reasonable and natural for him to ask for a photo with Xiaoyue and Xingyun.
Zhong Lingxi and An Xiaoyue smiled at each other and happily took a picture.
"Alright." Fu Shengyang snapped a bunch of photos; there were quite a few, let them choose whichever they wanted.
"Thank you." Ji Yubai took the phone, then boldly hooked his arm around Fu Shengyang's shoulder and led him outside.
"Sister-in-law, Brother Shengyang has also been on edge all day. We brothers are going out for some fresh air. Let Lingxi take care of you."
Ji Yubai thought he had done everything perfectly, but everyone heard his cunning scheme unfolding.
They just wanted Lingxi to stay so she could talk to Xiaoyue and see Xingyun.
Fu Shengyang was busy and didn't expose him, saying, "Xiaoyue, I'll be right back."
An Xiaoyue: "Mm."
Ji Yubai reached the door, called Leng Fangyi, and the three of them went out together.
The three tall figures disappeared through the doorway, and An Xiaoyue smiled, "He understands you very well."
Zhong Lingxi's lips immediately pouted, looking incredibly proud. "Otherwise, I wouldn't choose him to marry!"
An Xiaoyue curled her lips and teased, "Who just said they only dated and didn't want to get married?"
"Hmph!" Zhong Lingxi feigned anger. "Shut up and get some rest. I want to see my little nephew."
Having experienced her aunt Fang Mei's teasing, An Xiaoyue knew how Lingxi felt and stopped teasing her with words.
At first, Lingxi did not have a good impression of Ji Yubai.
But as they spent more time together, and given how compatible Ji Yubai was, Lingxi's affection for him naturally grew.
To find someone who truly cherishes you and spend your life with them is one of the greatest joys of this life.
"Tell him anything you need to do, and he can handle it."
She had met both of Ji's uncle and aunt, and she trusted Ji Yubai to handle everything.
Zhong Lingxi was taking pictures of the sleeping Lucky and only gave a vague "hmm" in response.
They're very stubborn.
An Xiaoyue didn't intend to worry about Lingxi's affairs.
Love is more interesting when two people are constantly pulling and tugging at each other.
"As expected of my little nephew, he was born so handsome, he doesn't look like a wrinkled old man at all."
An Xiaoyue always had a faint smile on her lips.
Zhong Lingxi didn't stay inside for long. She took a few photos and then came out to let Xiaoyue rest quietly.
“Aunt An.” Zhong Lingxi sat down next to An Jiaren and, as always, affectionately took her arm.
"Yes, our Lingxi is a young lady now." An Jiaren had heard about Ji Yubai and Zhong Lingxi from Teacher Zhou.
Ji Yubai met all of Teacher Zhou and Teacher Zhong's requirements for their son-in-law. As long as Lingxi liked it, they, as parents, would not object to the marriage.
Zhong Lingxi pouted, "Aunt An, you've changed too."
Even the usually carefree Zhong Lingxi would feel embarrassed to talk about relationships in front of her elders.
An Jiaren smiled knowingly, her face radiating the pride of "my daughter has grown up." "Alright, alright, Aunt An knows, we won't talk about it anymore."
