Chapter 709: Chapter 709: A Son and a Daughter

After Qin Juan got pregnant, Lin Chuxia also gave Old Sir He’s herbal prescription to her, reminding her to take care of her body to ease the pain during childbirth. Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs noⅴelfire.net

But Qin Juan didn’t take it seriously. Moreover, her job at the restaurant was busy. She didn’t want to smell like herbal medicine every day, so she only drank two doses of the medicine at the beginning.

Unexpectedly, her labor was even shorter than hers.

Doctor Wang smiled and explained, “Your sister-in-law is having her second child, which is naturally different from your first childbirth. The second child usually comes faster; when they arrived at the hospital, the cervix was already dilated.”

Lin Chuxia snapped out of it and smiled as she thanked Doctor Wang.

Anyway, quick delivery was good.

The quicker the delivery, the less pain.

Besides, she gave birth to a boy, so now the eldest sister has both a son and a daughter, which is perfect.

Lin Chuxia and Qin Yang skillfully went to the ward. Before they even reached the door, they heard laughter coming from inside.

Then came Old Mrs. Jia’s reprimand, “Lower your voice; with your loud voice, don’t scare my eldest grandson.”

Jia Liang’s voice was loud and cheerful, “Mom, don’t worry, he won’t be scared. I’m his father, and even if he’s timid, he’ll get used to my voice. Right, Juanzi?”

Old Mrs. Jia, “Alright, alright, even if your son isn’t afraid, speak less. Juanzi just gave birth, she’s weak and needs to rest. Let her close her eyes; sleep is the best remedy for replenishing energy.”

“Alright, I’ll take the baby aside for a while. Juanzi, hurry and sleep for a bit. I’ll keep an eye on the child, don’t worry.”

Old Mrs. Jia, “Go aside, you’re so clumsy, how can you take care of the child? Give the child to me, you watch Juanzi.”

Jia Liang, “Mom, I can hold the child and watch Juanzi at the same time. I can manage…”

Lin Chuxia and Qin Yang entered the room to see Jia Liang holding the baby. His posture was somewhat amusing, even stiffer than when Qin Yang held Qi Qi, with both hands supporting the baby as if holding a bomb.

Even so, he decisively refused Old Mrs. Jia’s eager eyes wanting to hold the baby.

If he weren’t afraid of dropping the baby, he would have held him above his head.

Old Mrs. Jia was very affectionate towards her grandson. Even though she wanted to hold her grandson, she was anxious standing before her tall son.

On the hospital bed, Qin Juan didn’t look like a new mother at all. She was full of energy, sitting upright and smiling as she watched the mother and son duo.

Seeing Lin Chuxia coming over, she greeted her to sit, as if about to get out of bed.

Lin Chuxia quickly went to support her, “Big Sister, what are you doing? Are you going to fly? Do you know you just gave birth?”

With her words, both Old Mrs. Jia and Jia Liang stopped fighting over the baby and gathered around.

Jia Liang, holding the baby, with a big bald head asked, “Juanzi, what’s up? Are you thirsty? If you’re thirsty, let mom pour you some water. If you’re hungry, I’ll get you something to eat. Or do you need to go to the bathroom? I’ll carry you.”

“I’m not thirsty or hungry; I’m not going anywhere. I just want to pour a cup of water for sister-in-law.”

“Come on, this little thing doesn’t need you to do it. Just lie on the bed properly,” Old Mrs. Jia pushed her back onto the hospital bed.

Lin Chuxia also disagreed, “Big Sister, are you treating me as an outsider, or do you want to show me your strong physique? Do I really need that cup of water from you right now?”

Qin Juan smiled sheepishly, “It’s all reflex action; I forgot I just gave birth.”

Lin Chuxia: “…”

How good is this body’s condition?

Old Mrs. Jia chuckled on the side, “Your family should really talk to her. Your big sister doesn’t seem to care about her own body. She saw bleeding in the morning, and even though Liangzi said to take her to the hospital, she said she had experience and wouldn’t give birth right away. She even wanted to go to the market and buy fish to stew for Ningning. I had to stop her multiple times before she finally listened. After breakfast, her stomach started hurting. Even at that point, when we said to take her to the hospital, she wasn’t in a hurry. By the time we got to the hospital, the cervix was dilated, and the baby’s head was almost out. If we had been later, she could have given birth on the road; isn’t it quite risky?”

Qin Juan felt embarrassed being talked about, “I didn’t expect it to be so fast. When I gave birth to Ningning, it took most of the day.”

She didn’t like to talk about her days at the Zhang Family, but it slipped out.

But in her heart, she remembered that it took a day and a night of pain when she had Ningning, and it still took most of the day at the hospital.

The cervix wouldn’t open, and she was in extreme pain.

Mrs. Zhang and Zhang Wenbin found her troublesome and took her to the hospital early but she didn’t give birth.

She knew Old Mrs. Jia and Jia Liang weren’t like that; she truly didn’t expect the second delivery to be so easy.

Jia Liang was laughing uncontrollably on the side, “My son is just like me, quick-tempered.”

This unworthy attitude was unbearable to look at for everyone present.

………

Indeed, Qin Juan’s physical condition was excellent, as even Doctor Wang marveled at it.

After giving birth, she didn’t feel much discomfort. The doctor helped her expel lochia twice, and after urinating, she could be discharged to recover at home, without needing further observation at the hospital.

Upon hearing that Qin Juan could be discharged the same day, Lin Chuxia didn’t hurry to leave.

They drove there, so they could give Qin Juan a ride home.

As a result, the three adults left home in the morning, but by noon, three adults and one child returned.

The house was warm and cozy, with Old Mrs. Jia instructing Jia Liang to quickly prepare meals, while she made a cup of strong brown sugar water for Qin Juan.

The eldest grandson was finally in her arms, and no one was competing with her for him.

Even though the little one was sound asleep, she held him fondly.

She kept repeating to Lin Chuxia, “I always said Juanzi was blessed. Our family Liangzi married Juanzi, and we’re benefiting from her good fortune. Look, married less than two years, they now have a son and a daughter. With the policy so strict now, how many can have both? If Liangzi hadn’t married Juanzi, where would he have such good luck?”

Jia Liang belonged to a city household, and under the current policy, whether it’s a boy or girl, city households can only have one child.

Old Mrs. Jia’s words were no exaggeration.

But from another perspective, Qin Juan was bringing a child into her second marriage with Jia Liang, and the Jia Family not only held no grudges but felt they gained a bargain.

This kind of generosity can only be found in the Jia Family, and Qin Juan truly married right.

Lin Chuxia and Qin Yang left after lunch at the Jia Family.

Even with great health, childbirth depletes energy, and Qin Juan needed rest to recover properly.

They wouldn’t be helpful there, only delaying her rest.

Leaving the Jia Family, Qin Yang and Lin Chuxia headed straight to Qin Family Village.

There were matters in Ancheng County waiting for Lin Chuxia to handle. Sending the mother and child back to Qin Family Village allowed Qin Yang to return to the city for work early the next day.
