Chapter 1199: Chapter 1199 Turning Danger into Safety 3 Chapter 1199: Chapter 1199 Turning Danger into Safety 3 Hospitals are such magical places, with both births and deaths occurring.
For the forr, the whole family rejoices; for the latter, the entire household mourns.
Zhuangzhuang survived, and among the parents whose children had died young, there were not a few who saw him as a thorn in the eye, a thorn in the flesh.
Taking advantage of the warr temperature at noon, Feng Qingxue changed Zhuangzhuang’s diaper and fresh cotton jacket and wrapped him back into his swaddling clothes, also tucking the Jade Gourd inside. The little one slept soundly.
Just as she had finished tidying up, Lu Jiang arrived with Xibao and Fubao.
“Mommy, Mommy, you scared !” Fubao began to act spoiled as soon as she arrived.
Xibao puffed up her face, blinking her big eyes. She looked at her brother, then at her mother, and said discontentedly, “Mommy isn’t pretty anymore.”
Feng Qingxue touched her face. After several days and nights of tireless vigilance, without even ti to wash her face or brush her teeth, and in the face of her youngest son’s illness, she had no thoughts of eating or drinking. It would be strange if she looked good. She now had neither the ti nor the energy to dare look in a mirror; all her attention was devoted to Zhuangzhuang.
Fubao glared at her brother, “Mommy is beautiful, brother is talking nonsense.”
“I did not talk nonsense!” Xibao scrambled over and tugged on Feng Qingxue’s clothes, “Mommy, brother is better now, isn’t he?”
“Yes, brother is better now. He will soon be coming ho to play with Xibao and Fubao,” Feng Qingxue said with confidence, a trace of determination shining through her haggard face. “So, when Daddy and Mommy are not at ho, Xibao must be good and take care of your sister and brother. When Mommy gets ho, there will be a reward, okay?”
“Yes! I am very good, I am a good Xibao,” Xibao declared loudly.
Her voice was loud, and Zhuangzhuang woke up with a start, crying softly.
Lu Jiang shot a stern look at his eldest child and cradled his younger son in his arms. “Has Zhuangzhuang been behaving?”
“Not bad, he’s been good. He slept after feeding, and he didn’t even wake up when I changed his diaper,” Feng Qingxue answered before asking, “Did you take ti off? How are Dundun and Xiongxiong doing at ho? Are they behaving? Did they drink their formula on ti?”
“I did,” he replied. How could he not take leave when his son’s life hung in the balance? “Sister Tian and Yang Fengying took great care of Dundun and Xiongxiong; they’ve even gained a little weight compared to a few days ago. Xiaoyun has taken leave recently and stays ho every day, either taking care of Xibao and Fubao with Sister Xiuying’s daughter Xiaoyun or helping Sister Tian and Yang Fengying with the household chores.”
In tis of trouble, true colors show.
Lu Jiang continued, “Comrades Fang Ning, Yang Fengying, Bai Xue, Du Xiaotao, Jin Zhuzhu, and others, including Comrade Wang Xinru, have all helped out at our ho whenever they had ti.”
Feng Qingxue humd in response, a smile gracing the corners of her mouth.
The harmonious atmosphere was abruptly shattered by the sudden intrusion of an elderly woman.
She burst in through the door, collapsed to the floor in tears, pointing at Zhuangzhuang in Lu Jiang’s arms while slapping her thigh, “Heaven is blind, oh, Heaven is blind! The sa illness, but just because their rank is higher than my son’s, you all fought desperately to save their child and ignored my grandson! My grandson was just born yesterday, a child born after ten months, how can you be so cruel?”
She slapped her thighs with a resounding smack, her voice piercingly loud. When her single-lidded, small eyes turned to Zhuangzhuang, they were filled with resentnt, giving no chance for the nurse who followed in to react, as she continued to wail, “My eldest grandson, oh, my eldest grandson!”
