Chapter 1860

The day passed very slowly. For Su Xinghui, every minute felt as long as a century. Just when he felt he couldn't hold on any longer, the delivery room door finally opened, and everyone heard the cry of a baby.

A beautiful nurse came out, holding a crying baby, her face full of joy. She shouted loudly, "May I ask who Su Xinghui is?"

Su Xinghui jumped up from the bench, took a few large strides to the nurse, and said, "I am Su Xinghui!"

The nurse said, "Then this is your son. Both mother and child are safe. Congratulations!"

As she spoke, the nurse smiled and handed the baby to Su Xinghui. Su Xinghui held his son clumsily. He looked at his son's face; the boy seemed to feel uncomfortable and was crying loudly. If his limbs hadn't been fixed in the swaddling clothes, he would surely have been waving his arms and legs.

His face was very ruddy, but he looked like a little old man, full of wrinkles. He was crying while keeping his eyes closed. Su Xinghui couldn't tell who he looked like for a moment. What was very funny was that Su Xinghui's first thought was, why is this child so ugly?

But in the blink of an eye, Su Xinghui's heart was filled with joy. This was his son, his son connected to him by blood! This feeling of blood connection was truly wonderful.

He couldn't help but lower his head and gently kiss his son on the face.

His parents, parents-in-law, Grandma Lu, and sister Su Xingyun all gathered around. Guo Suhua said, "Let me hold my grandson."

Su Xinghui handed his son to his mother. She held him for a while, then passed him to Song Qiaoli. Each member of the family held the child for a while.

Everyone let out a long sigh of relief. They gathered around to congratulate Su Xinghui, and Su Xinghui thanked them one by one.

At this moment, medical staff were seen pushing a stretcher bed out. Lying on the bed was Lu Xiaoya. She had an expression of utter exhaustion, and strands of her hair were soaked with sweat and stuck to her forehead. One could imagine the arduous effort she had gone through to bring this child into the world.

Su Xinghui stepped forward with an aching heart, took her hand, and followed the medical staff as they pushed Lu Xiaoya into the ward.

Lu Xiaoya was already too tired to speak. She just looked at Su Xinghui with a smile. Su Xinghui said with an aching heart, "Xiaoya, you've worked hard. Go to sleep now."

Lu Xiaoya nodded slightly, held Su Xinghui's hand, and closed her eyes to sleep just like that.

She was indeed too tired. The time she gave birth was 9:08. She had stayed in the delivery room for nearly seven hours to give birth to the child. This process had exhausted all her strength, and she had to rest.

The family members came in one after another to see Lu Xiaoya. Seeing she was asleep, they didn't disturb her. Su Xinghui saw they weren't holding the child and asked, "Where is the child?"

Guo Suhua said, "The nurse took him for a check-up. We'll bring him over later for Xiaoya to feed."

Su Xinghui nodded, "Okay, let Xiaoya sleep for a while, she's too tired!"

Everyone nodded and looked at Lu Xiaoya with aching hearts.

Su Xinghui said to his parents, "Dad, Mom, why don't you go out and have everyone go back to rest? It's getting late."

Su Wenjun and Guo Suhua nodded together. Just as they were about to go out, Lu Zhenghong said to them, "In-laws, wait a moment. I'll go out with you to thank them."

Lu Zhenghong had been worrying about Lu Xiaoya the whole time. Now that she was fine, he naturally couldn't be impolite. He had to thank those people outside one by one, especially since Su Xinghui's hand was being held by Lu Xiaoya and he couldn't get away. Lu Zhenghong felt even more obligated to go out on behalf of his son-in-law to see the guests off.

They went out together, saw all the guests off, and then entered the ward and sat down.

The hospital had arranged the best cadre ward for Lu Xiaoya. She was the only mother in the entire ward, so there was plenty of space. The whole family could sit down, and the flowers, fruit, and nutritional supplements brought by those who came to visit were almost filling the entire room.

Before long, the nurse brought the child in. The child seemed tired of crying and had stopped. His eyes were rolling around, looking very cute.

The nurse handed the child to Su Xinghui and gave him a piece of paper recording the child's data. It stated that the child was born on August 5th at 9:08 PM, with a length of 58 centimeters, a weight of 3,400 grams, and blood type O.

The whole family held the child for a while, and then the child started crying again. This time, it was likely because he was hungry. He hadn't eaten anything since birth.

Guo Suhua scrambled to find milk powder and a bottle, preparing to mix milk for the child. Song Qiaoli went to help her. But just then, Lu Xiaoya woke up. She truly had a mother-child connection; although she was exhausted to the extreme, she woke up as soon as the child cried.

Lu Xiaoya said in a very soft voice, "Mom, don't mix the milk powder. I'll feed the child. I've read books, and breastfeeding is better."

Guo Suhua and Song Qiaoli naturally knew breastfeeding was better. They nodded and brought the child over. Su Xinghui helped Lu Xiaoya sit up and lean against the pillows. Lu Zhenghong, Su Wenjun, and the other men quickly went out and closed the door behind them.

Lu Xiaoya opened her bosom as a new mother and put a nipple into the child's mouth. The child stopped crying immediately and began to suck vigorously. But after sucking for a long time, he got nothing. Suddenly, he let go of the nipple and started crying again with a "waa."

Lu Xiaoya was very anxious. Song Qiaoli said with a smile, "The child doesn't have the strength to suck."
