Chapter 234 You are his biological father, why are you so shy?
On March 3, Xu Man gave birth to a son safely.
Wang Chengnan arranged for her to be admitted to the hospital two days in advance. After Xu's mother and Xue Wanyi learned about this, they would visit Xu Man every day.
As long as the shop is not busy, Zhou Rong will come to the hospital to see Xu Man and bring her some food and daily necessities.
Wang Chengnan took a few days off and stayed by Xu Man's side every day.
After Xu Man came out of the delivery room safely, Wang Chengnan's anxious heart finally settled down. He felt that he had never been so nervous even when he was fighting a war.
Looking at the tiny baby in the cradle, Wang Chengnan wanted to hug his son, but he was worried that he would be clumsy and make the child cry or get hurt.
Xu's mother was amused by Wang Chengnan's appearance. She held her grandson in her arms to demonstrate and told him the key points of holding a child.
Wang Chengnan studied very seriously. He held the child in his arms and rocked him gently. The child looked at him but didn't cry. He smiled innocently and said, "He doesn't mind strangers!"
Xu Man leaned on the bed, holding his forehead helplessly: "You are his biological father, why are you so shy?"
Wang Chengnan smiled innocently: "You are right, I am confused again, should the child be named Weiguo, Weiqiang, or Aimin?"
Xu Man becomes sad whenever the child's name is mentioned.
Wang Chengnan was very excited about becoming a father for the first time, and he prepared several names early on, both for sons and daughters.
The sons are Weiguo, Weiqiang and Aimin whom he just mentioned; the daughters are Lihua, Xiuying and Meijuan.
Xu Man said that these names were too rustic, and if one shouted them out outside, a group of people would respond.
Wang Chengnan said that popular names are easy to remember and will not make people think of them as targets.
Xu Man didn't want to spoil Wang Chengnan's excitement as a new father, so she didn't protest, thinking that he would forget about it over time, and she would then give the child a different name. Unexpectedly, he still remembered it firmly in his mind...
Xu Man once told Zhou Rong about her sorrow.
Zhou Rong also felt that the names Wang Chengnan had chosen were not nice, so he looked up a dictionary with Xu Man, selected a few new names, and taught Xu Man how to convince Wang Chengnan.
Xu Man thought back to what Zhou Rongjiao had said and discussed with him, "The child's name will accompany him throughout his life. A nice name can change his fortune. I've asked someone to calculate it. If we have a son, we can name him Ruizhe.
It means being upright, stable and down-to-earth. When they grow up, they will be the hope of the family and the right-hand man of their parents. "
Xu's mother continued, "We have this saying. Many people change their names when things don't go well for them! Since Xiaoman has had someone calculate it, why don't you just use the name Ruizhe?"
Xue Wanyi also said: "The name Ruizhe sounds very meaningful. When this child grows up, he will definitely become a pillar of the country."
Wang Chengnan didn't believe in fortune-telling, but he didn't want Xu Man to be unhappy.
"Okay, let's call him Wang Ruizhe. I'll register him in a couple of days."
Zhou Rong came to the hospital to see Xu Man after get off work. When he learned that the baby had been born, he quickly took out a red envelope he had prepared in advance from his pocket, wrapped 66 yuan in it, and stuffed it into Wang Ruizhe's swaddling clothes: "This is a gift from my aunt, don't think it's too little!"
Xu Man smiled and said, "As long as it's from you, even if it's a penny, he'll be happy."
Zhou Rong jokingly said, "Really? Then the red envelopes I give him from now on will all be one cent."
Xu Man: "No problem!"
Xu Man stayed in the hospital for two days. Everything was fine. The doctor did a comprehensive examination and said she could be discharged, so she returned to her own courtyard.
Shi Qi gave birth to a son at the end of last year. She takes care of the child alone and is often in a rush. Xu's mother needs to lend a hand, otherwise she won't even have time to eat.
Father Xu and Xu Yun are clumsy when it comes to taking care of children. In Mother Xu's eyes, they are just a burden. It's good enough that they don't cause more trouble, and they can't be relied on for anything.
As for taking care of Xu Man during her confinement, Xu's mother said she was unable to do so and was willing to pay for a nanny.
Xue Wanyi said: "If you don't mind, I'll take care of Xiaoman during her confinement. I'm free anyway."
Wang Chengnan knew that Xu Man had a special feeling for Xue Wanyi, and he also wanted to take care of Xue Wanyi in her later years, but due to his status, he couldn't say it.
Taking advantage of this, Wang Chengnan said, "I couldn't ask for Aunt Xue to take care of Xiaoman, and I'm very relieved. I'll move Aunt Xue's luggage over later. Ruizhe and Xiaoman will be left to Aunt Xue."
Xue Wanyi: "Okay, I will do my best to take good care of them."
Since Xue Wanyi moved to Wang Chengnan's house, she has had something to do, feels needed, and can see her grandchildren every day. She is radiant.
Xu Man seemed to have seen the mental state of Xue Wanyi as the head lady of the Chen family when the family was at its peak...
Chen Zhan Ning and Chen Xiaowei were very curious and cherished their newborn brother. They would talk to him a few words every day when they came home from school.
Chen Zhan Ning even went to Zhou's mother to ask for advice on what meals and soups were suitable to eat during the confinement period, as well as the specific methods of making them. After returning home, he made them one by one for Xu Man.
Xue Wanyi couldn't help but sigh that her grandson had grown up and was more filial than her son...
Wang Chengnan didn't want to be corrected, so he didn't hold a full-month banquet for Wang Ruizhe. He only invited Xu's father, Xu's mother and Zhou Rong to his house for a simple meal.
After Xu Man finished her confinement, Xue Wanyi proposed to move back to Chang'anli.
Xu Man wanted to keep her, but was unable to speak.
Wang Chengnan took the initiative to discuss with Xue Wanyi: "I have to go to work and can't take care of the family. Zhan Ning and Xiao Wei have to go to school, Ruizhe is too young, and Xiaoman can't handle the family affairs. She also wants to go back to the store to work after a while.
I am worried about asking someone else to take care of the children. Can you please trouble Aunt Xue to help me take care of them for a while? Aunt Xue can set any conditions you want! "
Xue Wanyi smiled and said, "It's my honor that you look up to an old woman like me. I will stay for a few more days until the child is older, and then go back."
Wang Chengnan: "Okay, thank you for your hard work Aunt Xue."
When Xue Wanyi took the child out to play, Xu Man held Wang Chengnan's hand and said gratefully, "Thank you!"
Wang Chengnan: "Why are you saying thank you to me again? From now on, you can tell me what you are thinking. I am a little stupid, and I am afraid that I may not be able to guess correctly and make you sad."
Xu Man gently punched Wang Chengnan's chest and said coquettishly, "I just like this stupidity in you."
Wang Chengnan seemed to be electrocuted. He hugged Xu Man tightly and said with a heavy breath, "Let's put the child in the cradle to sleep tonight?!"
Xu Man: “…”
At the end of May, the steel plant allocated a house each to Zhou Jiahua, Zhou Jiashun and Zhou Jiashan.
As agreed before, Zhou's mother bought a set of furniture and daily necessities for Zhou Jiahua.
Xie Cuilian was very happy to have her own house, but when she thought about her two young children, especially Zhou Xiao, who was only eight months old, she realized that if she moved to the steel plant, she would not be able to take care of the children after she started working.
After some thought, he could only discuss with Zhou's mother and decide to send the two children to Chang'an in the morning and have her take care of them, and then take them back when she gets off work in the evening.
Zhou's mother said it was no problem.
Zhou Rong likes the lively atmosphere of the family living together. According to her opinion, it would be better if Xie Cuilin did not move away.
Zhou's mother said that if they were together for a long time, they would have a rift. It would be better to keep some distance, so that the siblings' affection would not be worn out by trivial matters and they would blame each other...
