Lu Xiaoya said, "Then what should I do?"

Song Qiaoli looked at Su Xinghui and said, "Then let the child's father help."

Su Xinghui's head was a bit dazed. How could he help?

Guo Suhua whispered in his ear, "The child doesn't have the strength. You help Xiaoya clear the nipple, and then the child can feed."

Su Xinghui finally understood, and his face turned red in an instant.

Guo Suhua took a clean new towel and a basin of hot water, telling Su Xinghui to help Xiaoya apply a compress to her breasts, which would also help with milk production. They all said Lu Xiaoya's breasts were very full, so there shouldn't be a lack of milk.

After doing all this, they all left the ward and closed the door again.

Su Xinghui was a bit embarrassed. Lu Xiaoya looked at him, and a red cloud also rose on her face. But looking at the crying child, she still said to Su Xinghui, "Xinghui, come on."

Su Xinghui first used the hot towel to help Lu Xiaoya apply a compress for a while, then leaned in and began to suck. After sucking for a while without success, he used the hot towel to compress again and then sucked again. While he was sucking, Lu Xiaoya stroked his hair with her hand, her face full of maternal radiance.

After sucking several times, Su Xinghui finally felt a stream of liquid surge into his mouth. The liquid was both fishy and sweet, with a strange taste. However, he didn't have time to think too much; he quickly picked up the child and put the cleared nipple into the child's mouth. The child tasted the sweet breast milk and stopped crying, swallowing it in large gulps.

Lu Xiaoya gently patted the child to prevent him from choking due to swallowing too quickly, and signaled Su Xinghui to clear the other side as well.

After Su Xinghui cleared the other side, he watched the child feed. His heart was filled with the wonderful feeling of being a new father. This was his son.

The child had a good appetite. He ate from both sides before he was full, and then he fell into a satisfied, deep sleep.

Su Xinghui opened the door to let everyone in. Outside the door, Li Shuqin had also arrived. It turned out she had just gone home to cook a bowl of chicken soup noodles and brought it to Lu Xiaoya in a thermos.

Lu Xiaoya had exhausted too much energy and had just fed the child, so she was indeed very hungry. She wolfed down the noodles along with the chicken soup and chicken meat until the bowl was clean.

Seeing that it was getting late, almost eleven o'clock, Guo Suhua said, "In-laws, you go back to sleep first. I'll stay here with Xinghui to keep Xiaoya company."

Song Qiaoli was a bit reluctant, but Su Xinghui also said, "Mom, look at how tired Grandma is. You should all go back to sleep first."

Lu Zhenghong nodded, "Okay, then we'll go rest first and come back tomorrow morning."

Su Xinghui said to Su Wenjun and Su Xingyun's family, "Dad, brother-in-law, sister, you go rest too. I'll help you open rooms at the County Committee guesthouse. Weisheng is tired too."

Tan Weisheng was already asleep, lying on a lounge chair, covered by Tan Mingcheng's clothes.

They all agreed. Li Shuqin said, "I'll stay here today too."

Guo Suhua said, "Auntie Li, you go home too. You still have to deliver Xiaoya's meals tomorrow."

Li Shuqin nodded then.

Su Xinghui saw them downstairs. Once downstairs, Su Xinghui was surprised to see Hou Wenhai's car still parked there. Seeing them come down, Hou Wenhai got out of the car and said to Su Xinghui, "Xinghui, I've already opened rooms at our family's hotel. Let me take Uncle, Aunt, and the others there to rest."

Su Xinghui didn't stand on ceremony and said to Lu Zhenghong, "Dad, why don't you stay at the Hou family's hotel tonight?"

Lu Zhenghong nodded with a smile, "I'll listen to your arrangements tonight."

Su Xinghui looked at Su Wenjun again. Su Wenjun naturally had no problem. Su Xinghui patted Hou Wenhai on the shoulder and said, "Okay, I'll leave it to you!"

Hou Wenhai nodded, had Su Wenjun and the others get into his car, and Lu Zhenghong's family got into their own car, driving together toward the Hou Group's large hotel.

When Su Xinghui returned to the ward, Lu Xiaoya and the child were already fast asleep. They were sleeping very soundly.

There were two companion beds in the ward. That night, Su Xinghui and Guo Suhua took turns sleeping on these two beds, accompanying Lu Xiaoya and the child through the night.
