Chapter 847: Are They Good People or Bad People?

Sheng Zichen's name was chosen by his grandfather, but the couple had discussed a few options as well.

When it came to the twins, the two of them actually forgot such a major event as naming them.

Shi Youxuan had just "unloaded," and she was exhausted.

She said to her parents-in-law, "Please just pick any name you like; anything will do. A name is just a code, after all."

Sheng Hanyu had to take care of his wife and wasn't focused on the names either, saying anything would be fine.

In the end, Sheng Jiang flipped through books, checked the computer, and even paid a high price to a fortune teller to help pick two names—Sheng Zirui and Sheng Zihan.

One week later.

The children were brought out from the newborn nursery to their mother's side; this was the first time the children had seen people.

"They're really ugly."

Shi Youxuan only took one look before looking away, reaching her conclusion.

Sheng Hanyu said, "They were even uglier when they were just born; they've already started to fill out a bit now."

It is best for newborns to drink breast milk, but Shi Youxuan didn't have enough, and the two children weren't getting full, so they cried every night.

Sheng Hanyu was afraid of disturbing his wife's rest and suggested, "Let's just feed them formula. That way you can get a good night's sleep, and we can just leave these two brats to the nanny."

Shi Youxuan hesitated, "It's easy for children to get sick if they drink formula. How about we stick to breast milk?"

Sheng Hanyu replied, "Then we'll wean them after two months. We shouldn't have had them; you're suffering too much."

Shi Youxuan said, "Fine, let's do that."

The couple's remarks were met with collective disdain.

Jian Yixin was the first to jump out and object, "You two are going too far! Are you even their real parents? If you don't like them, I'll take them back to raise."

Never seen anything like it.

With the same parents, the disparity in how they treat their children is just too great.

When Shi Ran was little, the two of them weren't together yet; when Sheng Zichen was little, these two were still normal, but now they act like step-parents!

The little wolf and Xiaoxiaobai raised in their backyard are treated better than the twins.

"Take them away, you can take them away right now," Shi Youxuan readily agreed.

"You alone don't get the final say. Does Sheng Hanyu agree?"

Sheng Hanyu said, "I agree. They're yours. Send them back to me when they turn eighteen."

Jian Yixin:...

In her dreams! Why would she return them to you after raising them to eighteen?

Shi Youxuan was preparing to be discharged from the hospital, but instead of going home, she went straight to a pre-booked confinement center to recover.

This confinement center was the best in Jiangzhou; all the maternity matrons, nutritionists, and wellness consultants had extensive experience and a mountain of certificates and trophies.

On the first day Shi Youxuan moved into the confinement center, the person in charge appeared in her room with a large group of people.

First, they had to perform an admission health assessment, a physical constitution analysis, and develop a nursing plan, among other things.

There was 24-hour dedicated care every day, and the staff caring for the mother and the infants were separate, but absolutely professional.

Furthermore, they formulated personalized confinement meals, with six meals a day—three main meals and three snacks. There was fruit too, but it had to be eaten warm, and there were many restricted items.

The confinement center was very professional, and the arrangements were scientific and reasonable; even Wang Yinghao said that things are better now and that coming here was the right choice.

Shi Youxuan was very well-adjusted here, and both she and the babies were receiving excellent care, so she persuaded her husband not to stay with her and to go to the company instead.

However, she was refused.

Sheng Hanyu said, "No, I'm not at ease leaving you here alone. I have to stay with you."

The couple stayed at the confinement center; the children were cared for by the center's staff, while the two of them stuck together every day like newlyweds.

One day after a meal, the two of them were slowly taking a walk in the lobby.

As they walked and chatted about daily life, someone behind them suddenly shouted, "Watch out!"

Before the words had even faded, Shi Youxuan had already been shoved aside, and a piece of glass fell onto the spot where she had just been standing, shattering into tiny pieces.

"What's going on? How could a perfectly good piece of glass fall?" Sheng Hanyu comforted his wife and asked for accountability in a loud voice.

The person in charge of the confinement center was summoned, and the reason for the glass falling from high up was also found.

It turned out that because of a typhoon, this piece of glass had already been teetering but had gone unnoticed, and it just happened to fall when the couple walked by at noon.

And the person who had shouted a warning from behind them and shoved Shi Youxuan away was a maternity matron there.

The maternity matron was named Rong Huaying, looked to be in her forties, and appeared to be an honest person.

She pushed Shi Youxuan away but got injured herself; her lower leg was cut by a glass shard, and blood was flowing non-stop.

Once Shi Youxuan's mood had steadied, she immediately had someone send her to the hospital to see a doctor.

She insisted on not going, saying she only had a small scratch and it was nothing; country folk aren't that delicate, as long as the mother recovering here wasn't hurt, it was fine.

After a simple bandage, she went back to work.

Rong Huaying received praise from everyone, high and low.

The couple rewarded her heavily, but were also refused.

Rong Huaying smiled shyly, "Actually, you don't need to be so polite; this is what I should have done."

Shi Youxuan planned to hire this maternity matron to come home after the full-month celebration to continue helping take care of the twins.

Her husband said, "Don't reveal this idea yet. Observe her in secret for a few days; I'll send people to investigate."

When it comes to taking care of his sons, a person must be reliable; one cannot easily reach a conclusion based on just one incident.

Infants are different from adults; the two children are too young and don't understand anything. It would be troublesome if they hired someone with ill intentions.

Shi Youxuan understood this logic, so she agreed.

She wasn't idle either; when she had free time, she would chat with her about daily trifles and domestic matters.

During their casual chats, Rong Huaying introduced that she had two sons at home and that her husband had passed away a long time ago.

In order to pay for her son's schooling, she had done almost every kind of work, all just to let her children live a little better.

Shi Youxuan: "How old are your two sons?"

Sister Rong: "The older one is Shi Liu, the younger one is twelve."

Fortunately, the children were very sensible; knowing the family's situation was poor, they never asked for food or clothes, nor did they compare themselves to others, and after school, they would even collect scrap to help with household expenses.

Being a mother herself, the thing she could least bear to see was children suffering.

The two of them chatted for an entire afternoon, and Shi Youxuan cried several times.

If it weren't for her husband's instructions when he went out, telling her she must wait until things were investigated clearly before making a decision, she might have softened her heart and invited Sister Rong to their home directly.

In the evening, when her husband returned, Shi Youxuan recounted everything she had chatted about with Sister Rong during the day to her husband exactly as it happened.

Sheng Hanyu frowned tightly and told his wife: "That woman is not as simple as you think."

"Why?"

"I think she's quite good."

Although Shi Youxuan could not say she had seen countless people, she did not have the ability to judge what kind of person someone was just by a single glance.

But she could still judge whether a person was lying from their eyes.

Sheng Hanyu: "Surface goodness cannot be counted as true goodness; this matter must be handled with caution."

"My people investigated for a whole day today and found nothing; this is not normal."

"Mm." She nodded, also becoming cautious.

There were no incompetent people among her husband's subordinates; if Rong Huaying were truly as simple as she claimed to be, it made no sense that they couldn't find anything out after a whole day of investigation!
