Chapter 366 - Youre Already Someones Father (1/2)
Xu Yilan arrived at the hospital with Zhang Jing and Auntie Wu sometimes around the afternoon.
Because her daughter had given birth early that morning, Xu Yilan had accepted Zhang Jing's invitation to crash over their place for a night. That way, Xu Yilan did not have to go back and forth to B City to rest.
When the three elders entered the room, they immediately went to huddle around the little princess. Zhang Jing sat down on the sofa, and his grandson passed the baby into his embrace. Looking at the baby's face, Zhang Jing's expression became softer and he could not stop smiling.
He now had a great-granddaughter and he was so happy and proud of it. How many people around his age could brag about carrying a great-grandchild in their arms? At the thought that he can brag about this to his brother-in-law, Qi Xi Feng, Zhang Jing was happy. That man was two years older than him, but his grandsons had not brought home a granddaughter-in-law for him to see. Meanwhile, he was now someone with a great-granddaughter.
Xu Yilan watched her granddaughter for a while before she walked over to her daughter.
”Ma, when did you arrive?” Li Qin Yao asked.
”I came the moment Yu Han told me you're in labor,” Xu Yilan said. She turned her head to her look at her son-in-law who was sitting beside his grandfather and smiled. ”Yu Han sent someone to fetch me from B City.”
Li Qin Yao followed her mother's gaze and sighed. Perhaps, this was why her mother treated her husband very well. It was because Zhang Yu Han treated her mother good as well.
”How are you feeling?” Xu Yilan asked as she gave her daughter a lookover. Seeing that her daughter look well, Xu Yilan heaved a sigh in relief.
”It feels strange that I have given birth to a child,” Li Qin Yao said.
Xu Yilan laughed at her daughter's words. ”You did a great job giving birth to a daughter. Yao Yao, I am so proud of you.” She squeezed at her daughter's shoulder and leaned to kiss her head.
Hearing her mother's words, Li Qin Yao felt her eyes and nose started to sting. As she felt her tears threatened to drop, her mother had leaned towards her and messed up with her hair. She was touched at her mother's words, but her mother had ruined the moment.
”Are you hungry?” Xu Yilan asked. ”I made some soup for you.”
Auntie Wu, who was at the side brought the soup thermos forward and placed it on the table. ”Your mother went into the kitchen the moment she woke up to cook the soup for you.”
Li Qin Yao watched as her mother poured the soup on the bowl and listened to the two women telling her that this soup would help to nourish her health as well as to help with brėȧst milk production. She drank the soup slowly and finished it even though it tasted a bit bland.
After a while, the little princess who was in her great-grandfather's arms started to cry.
Hearing the baby's cry for the first time, Zhang Jing tried to coax the baby before he passed her to his grandson. Zhang Yu Han then handed the baby to his wife and he pulled the curtains to let his wife fed their daughter peacefully.
…
Li Qin Yao was allowed to leave the hospital the next morning and the couple went back to their house.
Auntie Su was going to stay with them during his wife's confinement period. Therefore, Zhang Yu Han was not to worry too much. Moreover, Xu Yilan had decided to take a week off to look after her daughter and granddaughter.
