Chapter 386: Whatever the sister-in-law can't finish, it belongs to the brother
The night road is difficult to walk; although there are flashlights, the uneven ground makes it easy for an old person to sprain their ankle if they aren't careful.
So, it was Jiang Ye who delivered the chicken soup and medicinal soup; it just so happened that his own wife hadn't returned yet, so he went, and by the way, would bring his wife home.
Besides delivering food, he also picked up some of his brother-in-law's clothes and toiletries.
Looking at this, his brother-in-law had no hope of returning.
Old Master Lu and the others were persuaded and didn't insist on going to the hospital.
However, they asked Jiang Ye to tell the young couple in the hospital that they would go over tomorrow morning to take over the shift and deliver breakfast, telling them to rest well and that Lian Lian and the others would be well taken care of.
Old Master Pei was boiling water, preparing the bathtub to bathe the three little ones later.
Dinner was made with Amei's help; they just had to wash the bowls and chopsticks, and they were quite grateful to this girl.
Everything at home was proceeding in an orderly manner, with everyone helping as much as they could without adding to the chaos.
The children were the same, obediently letting the grandparents feed them and bathe them.
Plus, with Tangyuan at home, keeping an eye on the children from time to time, the children liked the fluffy Tangyuan and forgot to ask why their mom and dad hadn't returned home yet.
Of course, this distraction could only work for a while; it couldn't work completely...
Jiang Ye arrived at the hospital, and with a simple inquiry, he knew which floor and which room his sister-in-law was staying in.
It wasn't that the hospital staff lacked awareness; it was that his face and his relationship with Doctor Shen were known to everyone in the hospital.
Doctor Pei had given birth, and the doctors and nurses in the hospital had all offered their congratulations!
At this moment, since the brother-in-law came to deliver things, they certainly pointed the way.
"Knock, knock, knock."
The knocking sound rang out; Lu Xiu Bai tidied his wife's clothes and then stood up to open the door.
"Brother-in-law, why are you the one delivering things?"
Lu Xiu Bai was a bit surprised; wasn't Grandpa coming to deliver them?
"It's dark, I was afraid the road wouldn't be easy to walk, and it wouldn't be good if Grandpa and the others fell or sprained their ankles, so I came to deliver the things."
Jiang Ye explained while raising the thermos in his hand, and only after receiving permission did he enter.
"Where's my wife?"
"Manman went to get hot water and will be ready to go home in a while."
Lu Xiu Bai rubbed his nose; he really was filial to a fault...
Pei Yan Ting, on the bed, had actually already drunk the lotus root starch soup delivered by her sister, so she had something in her stomach.
She was still weak now, but her spirit was exceptionally good.
The infant in the swaddling clothes in her arms smelled the fragrance and the strange scent, and arched uneasily.
"Sister-in-law, this is Shuai Shuai, he looks just like big brother."
Jiang Ye looked straight ahead, and after putting down the things, he looked only at the swaddling clothes with great discretion.
He just couldn't think of any complimentary words, so he had to pick the one that couldn't be wrong.
Lu Xiu Bai chuckled upon hearing this; praising his son was praising him.
It was rare; his brother-in-law could speak human language.
"Xiu Bai, hold Shuai Shuai up and let his uncle hold him too."
Pei Yan Ting didn't dare to laugh, fearing she would pull her stitches.
Honestly, her son was a bit heavy, and her arms were sore from holding him.
Her sister said she had examined the child, and everything was normal.
The reason he grew so well was entirely because she ate well during pregnancy, so the child was naturally big and grew strong.
Actually, being strong was a good thing; he developed well, so he wouldn't be completely suppressed and beaten by his sister in the future.
Don't ask her why she thought this way; in the dark, she had a premonition that her daughter would definitely be a person with high combat power...
"Shuai Shuai, look, this is your uncle, you can pee on your uncle, okay?"
Lu Xiu Bai lowered his voice for the last sentence.
The gloating look was quite punchable.
But who was Jiang Ye?
His hearing was far beyond others, so he could naturally hear clearly.
Brother-in-law, could you be any more childish?
He was already a father of two children, yet still so childish!
Although he thought this way, he didn't refuse to hold his little nephew.
Shuai Shuai, who was originally arching around in his father's arms, didn't dare to arch around in the arms of his uncle, who had a strange scent, at first; but children are very sensitive to danger and kindness.
Feeling that his uncle didn't dislike him and was treating him with care, he nestled in his uncle's arms with peace of mind.
Let alone peeing, he didn't even frown.
This made his father's mouth twist in anger, and he couldn't stop complaining in his heart.
"Hmm? Ah Ye, you're here. I was just about to get a thermos of hot water for sister-in-law before going home."
Shen Man also returned at this time, and seeing her husband holding her little nephew skillfully, she smiled knowingly.
"It was late when I got home, and I was worried that it wouldn't be convenient for Grandpa and the others to walk at night, so I swapped tasks. I came to deliver food to sister-in-law and brother, and also brought a change of clothes for brother."
Jiang Ye said it lightly, but it highlighted how excessive his brother-in-law's twisted mouth was just now.
"Brother, what were you thinking just now?"
Shen Man looked at her brother disapprovingly; the siblings' eyes met, and the latter couldn't stop avoiding them.
"N-nothing, I'll feed sister-in-law the chicken soup first, you and brother-in-law help me watch the child for a while."
Lu Xiu Bai stuttered a bit, hurriedly changing the subject.
Sigh, his status as a brother-in-law was getting lower and lower.
"Pfft, pfft, pfft."
Suddenly, the little one let out a series of farts, and a foul odor permeated the air.
Jiang Ye subconsciously walked toward the corner, signaling his wife not to come over, and asked his brother-in-law to get him a new diaper and get some water so he could wash his little nephew's bottom.
Lu Xiu Bai handed the bowl and chopsticks with the chicken soup to his sister, signaling her to help feed his wife.
He also had experience in dealing with the filth his son produced—meconium.
An infant's meconium is green and very smelly.
As the child's father, he was duty-bound!
Pei Yan Ting didn't have much of an appetite, and the windows couldn't be opened, so the smell in the room wasn't very pleasant.
It was only the closest people who wouldn't mind and would take care of her at this time.
"Sister-in-law, eat a little, it doesn't matter if you can't finish it. Put it in the thermos, and it will still be warm in the middle of the night."
Shen Man urged her sister-in-law to eat a little to replenish her strength and nutrition.
Her brother's food was a bit rough—steamed buns and pickled vegetable pancakes.
Whatever the sister-in-law couldn't finish, it belonged to the brother.
Her brother would accompany her at night, and tomorrow during the day, Grandpa and the teacher would come to take care of her sister-in-law.
She could also take care of her sister-in-law during the day by taking advantage of her position.
Besides her, other colleagues would also look after her sister-in-law.
The convenience of being a military doctor was fully revealed.
As for the nephew's milk powder now, there was no need to worry at all.
Now that the policy had relaxed, even the Supply and Marketing Cooperative could provide milk powder!
Plus, other elders had been supporting them, so they were never short of milk powder coupons!
Even if her sister-in-law wanted to have more, the family could afford it.
After all, the three big ones at home were almost two years old, and generally, it's fine to wean children after two years old.
These days were getting better and better; those who wanted to have children should have them as soon as possible.
In a few years, if the policy changes, maybe they won't be able to have more...
However, she couldn't have any even if she wanted to.
In the words of her man, two children were enough; he didn't want more children to divert her attention... ===== CHAPTER 387 =====
