Chapter 976: This Favor, Brother-in-law Accepts. Thanks

Qiu Mu saw Xia Qiu wake up and hurriedly said to her own daughter, "Shaomei, quickly serve your sister-in-law some chicken soup so she can replenish her strength."

While speaking, she looked at the grandson in her arms, "Once your mother has eaten her fill, our family's Bao'er will have food to eat too."

Hearing his mother call his son Bao'er, Qiu Shaofeng said, "Mom, stop calling him Bao'er Bao'er, or you won't be able to stop later. I discussed it with Xia Qiu before; if it's a boy, we'll name him Li Jun, Qiu Lijun."

The eldest cousin's son is named Qiu Baolai, and the second cousin's son is named Qiu Dabao; those two families sometimes call their children Bao'er, Bao'er. If our family calls him that too, it would be chaos.

Hearing her son's words, Qiu Mu said, "Oh, so our Bao'er actually has a name. Fine, then Grandma will call him Junjun from now on."

Seeing his wife try to get up, Qiu Shaofeng quickly reached out to help her, "Take it slow, there's no rush."

Seeing the woman sit up, the Physician came over to ask some questions, "The mother's condition is very good. Since chicken soup has been brought, drink it while it's hot; perhaps the child will be able to nurse a bit later."

Hearing the Physician's words, Qiu Mu's face was full of smiles; she meant the same thing, after all, she had been through this herself, "Yes, yes, yes."

After the Physician left, Xia Qiu originally wanted to hold her son first, but Qiu Mu told her to drink the chicken soup first and hold him later.

Xia Qiu also listened to the advice, knowing her mother-in-law meant well for her.

Liu Chuxue, quick-eyed and nimble-handed, took over the task of serving the chicken soup; avoiding others, she added some space-pond water to the bowl, "Sister, eat quickly. Although it's covered tightly, it is cold outside, so it's just the right temperature to drink now."

Watching her finish two bowls of chicken soup plus a chicken leg, the people in the room finally felt relieved.

Seeing that it had already grown dark, Xiao Fu spoke up, "In-laws, it's getting late; we should be going."

Qiu Fu quickly spoke out, "Let Shaofeng take you out to get some food."

Xiao Fu hurriedly waved his hand, "No need. Let him take care of Xia Qiu; we'll go straight back to the city. If it gets any later, my wife will probably worry. Besides, Xia Qiu has given birth; such great news, I must go back and tell her, otherwise she'll keep worrying about it."

Qiu Fu insisted repeatedly, wanting them to eat before leaving, but Xiao Fu was very firm.

Qiu Fu could only give up, "Then let Shaofeng see you off. See if the State-run Hotel has any dry rations for sale right now; if they do, buy some to eat on the road."

Taking advantage of the moment while Xiao Fu and the others were talking to Liu Chuxue, he signaled his wife to give the money.

Since their Second Branch had not yet divided the household, the money and coupons naturally remained in the common fund.

Qiu Mu took a handkerchief from her pocket, opened it, pulled out some money and coupons from inside, and handed them to her eldest son, "Take it, don't be reluctant to spend."

The in-laws, bringing their daughter and future second son-in-law, had truly helped them greatly today; they certainly could not treat them poorly.

After instructing Xia Qiu, Xiao Fu exchanged a few pleasantries with Qiu Fu and Qiu Mu before preparing to leave.

Liu Chuxue touched the tender face of the little nephew in her sister's arms, "Sister, we are leaving. I will come again before work starts. If anything happens, call Brother-in-law to do it; you rest well."

Although these words were spoken to her sister, they were also spoken to the Qiu family.

Qiu Shaofeng saw the guests off and prepared to act according to Qiu Fu's arrangement, but Fu Yan Cheng stopped him, "Brother-in-law, you don't need to make a special trip; go back quickly to take care of your wife and child. I have this covered."

Qiu Shaofeng wanted to say something more, but heard Fu Yan Cheng lower his voice and say, "I happen to have a good opportunity to show off; don't compete with me for it."

Qiu Shaofeng was not stupid; he knew his future brother-in-law was helping him, "I accept this favor, Brother-in-law. Thanks."
