Chapter 1171: Toothache and Envy

Fu Yan Cheng happened to glance at the things packed up by his father-in-law's feet: "Are you being discharged?"

As he spoke, he took out a red envelope made of red paper from his pocket and stuffed it directly into his younger brother-in-law's swaddle: "This is Chuxue's and my gift; Mom, you keep it for your younger brother."

Seeing the red envelope, Xiao Mu's face was all smiles, and she immediately forgot the question she had just asked: "Oh my, this is the first red envelope Shi Tou has received; you are so thoughtful."

After speaking, she stuffed the red envelope deeper into the swaddle: "Shi Tou, this is your second brother-in-law; you must remember him."

Suddenly remembering the main matter, she looked up at Fu Yan Cheng and asked again: "How did you get here?"

Fu Yan Cheng immediately understood his mother-in-law's meaning: "I drove over; it's better to arrive by chance than by rushing; I can take you back."

After speaking, he looked at Xiao Mu: "Have the procedures been completed?"

Xiao Fu nodded: "Mm, they are done."

Fu Yan Cheng stepped forward and picked up the things on the ground: "Then let's go; I'll take you."

Xiao Mu was happy now, but she still glared at Xiao Fu: "Our Shi Tou is going home in a little car; our Shi Tou is so blessed; look, now he has a car to ride."

That look of pride made the other new mothers and their families in the ward feel a toothache plus envy.

Xiao Fu looked embarrassed, coughed lightly, and looked at Fu Yan Cheng: "Then you take them back; I'll ride my bicycle back."

They had not been gone long when Xia Qiu and Qiu Shaofeng arrived holding their son; after finally asking for the ward, they looked around for a long time but saw no one: "Didn't they say this ward? How come we don't see anyone?"

A kind family member at the door asked: "Miss, who are you looking for?"

Xia Qiu smiled and asked: "Auntie, may I ask if Zhao Lamei is staying in this ward?"

That auntie looked into the room, and at that moment the new mother lying further inside said: "It's the one who just left."

That auntie slapped her thigh: "Heavens, look at my memory; yes, it's her."

Xia Qiu hurriedly asked: "Did she stay in this ward? Where is she?"

That auntie smiled and pointed outside: "She just left a moment ago; you are a step late."

Xia Qiu thanked the person, turned, and told Qiu Shaofeng outside the door: "It seems we took different paths; Mom has already been discharged and gone home."

That auntie looked at Qiu Shaofeng at the door and asked curiously: "Who are you to her?"

Xia Qiu smiled gently, looking somewhat embarrassed on her face: "That is my mother."

That auntie looked at Xia Qiu, then at the child Qiu Shaofeng was holding in his arms, and said with an unnatural expression: "Which one are you?"

Xia Qiu was stunned for a moment, then immediately realized: "I am the eldest."

That auntie wore an expression of "now I understand": "How many younger sisters do you have below you?"

Xia Qiu was somewhat unwilling to answer further: "Auntie, we still have matters; we'll leave first."

How could that auntie let them go: "By the way, just now a tall, big male comrade took them away; I heard your mother tell the child to call him second brother-in-law; he should be your brother-in-law."

At this, Qiu Shaofeng spoke first: "Could it be that Chuxue has returned?"

Xia Qiu shook her head lightly at him: "I don't know."

Thinking of something, she turned and looked at that auntie: "Was only my brother-in-law here?"

That auntie smiled and nodded: "Yes; I heard he even drove over; what does your brother-in-law do?"

Xia Qiu saw the gossipy expression on her face and was no longer willing to reveal a single word: "Auntie, sorry; I'm in a hurry to go home to see my mother and younger brother, so I won't chat with you now."

She hurriedly pushed Qiu Shaofeng out the door.
