Chapter 285 Jiang Yi: I try my best to be the best father
We drank and chatted together until around eight o'clock in the evening, and unexpectedly it started snowing again.
It’s okay for other people to go back and walk at night, but the elderly and children cannot do so.
So after dinner, Xu Yu asked his grandparents, parents, sister-in-law and younger brother to stay.
Xu Jianhua must have been very excited. Upon hearing this, he immediately jumped for joy: "Great!"
Huanhuan clapped along: "Great!"
Zhang Hongmei and Zhao Cui'e didn't care. It was not the first time that they had stayed overnight at their daughter/sister-in-law's house.
Only Xu Kui refused: "We still have chickens and ducks to feed at home. Let your mother, sister-in-law and brothers stay and go back tomorrow."
Since he said so, Xu Yu didn't stay any longer.
Later, only the grandparents, Zhang Hongmei, Zhao Cui'e, the children and Xu Jianhua stayed behind.
The weather was cold, so Yang Wenhui simply called them all to their home.
"When the time comes, Grandpa Xiaoyu and Grandma will live in our room. There's a kang in there, so it's warm."
Xu Yu also said: "Then Dad, Brother Yi and my younger brother will sleep in our room, and we will sleep on the big bunk bed."
I didn't expect everyone to oppose it.
After all, Xu Yu's belly was really big, and Jiang Yi took such good care of her that they couldn't let them sleep separately.
Xu Yu thought about it and didn't insist anymore.
After all, it is difficult for her to turn over at night now, and it is Brother Yi who helps her turn over. If she sleeps on a large bunk bed, it will also be torture for her.
We had a barbecue with lamb in the evening, so everyone was warm and not very sleepy.
Xu Yu was not in a hurry to go back to his room to sleep, but went to the guest room to chat with them.
Those sleeping together tonight include grandma, two moms, sister-in-law and nephew, Xiao Tang, Dr. Chang and Huanhuan.
At this time, mothers are planning how to sleep.
Zhang Hongmei said: "Cui'e and Kang Kang will sleep here. Let Kang Kang sleep between us so that he won't disturb others if he gets up in the middle of the night. Mom will sleep next to me."
Yang Wenhui said, "Then I'll sleep in the middle, Xiao Tang will sleep next to me, and Doctor Chang will sleep over there with Huanhuan."
No one has an opinion.
Kang Kang had just finished his milk and was very energetic. He was held by Xiao Tang, and Huan Huan stood beside her, stretching her little head to look at Kang Kang.
Others were making the beds.
When Xu Yu came in, he walked directly to Xiao Tang and leaned over to tease Kang Kang, saying, "Kang Kang, my dear, be obedient tonight. Don't cry. If you pee, cry out. If you're hungry, drink your milk and go back to sleep."
Hearing this, Zhao Cui'e agreed: "Yes, sleep at your aunt's house tonight. If you don't behave, I won't let you come next time."
Xu Yu said with a smile: "We still need him to come."
After saying that, she stretched out a finger for him to hold, and then added: "But if you disturb others, your aunt will spank you when you grow up."
The three-month-old baby could already babble. When Xu Yu talked to him, he was obviously very excited and kept babbling in response to her.
Xu Yu couldn't help but scratch his chin with his fingers.
Kang Kang just laughed.
Huan Huan clapped her hands and laughed, "Kang Kang, smile, Kang Kang, good boy."
Kang Kang looked at her and smiled again.
Everyone else couldn't help but laugh along.
Yang Wenhui glanced at Huanhuan and said to Dr. Chang with a smile, "Huanhuan is becoming more and more like a child."
Doctor Chang nodded and glanced at Huanhuan. With gratitude in his eyes, he said, "Thanks to Doctor Huang and Xiaoyu. If it weren't for them, I would still be worried about going to Gangcheng to find a doctor to treat Huanhuan. The most important thing is that even if I went there, I might not be able to treat her so well."
Xu Yu continued, "So we must believe in the traditional Chinese medicine passed down by our ancestors. As long as we find a truly capable Chinese medicine practitioner, there is no disease that cannot be cured."
Dr. Chang smiled and nodded.
Xiao Tang then asked, "Doctor Chang, are you guys about to leave here?"
She felt that a military doctor like Dr. Chang could not stay here for long.
Doctor Chang nodded, but his expression was a little embarrassed. "Huanhuan looks better now, but I have to go back to work immediately. I can't be with her all the time. I'm afraid that if I take her back, the treatment we've done will be wasted."
Xu Yu agreed: "Indeed, although Huanhuan seems to be better now, she is much more sensitive than other children, especially her ability to adapt to the environment is much lower."
Doctor Chang's expression became even more difficult.
Everyone felt sorry for Huanhuan and liked her. Zhang Hongmei asked, "When will Doctor Chang return to the provincial capital?"
"The military hospital has called me many times to urge me to go back. There are too many patients recently. It would be best if I could go back before the New Year."
Although Yang Wenhui wanted to help, she would definitely give priority to Xu Yu: "Xiaoyu is about to give birth, otherwise you can just leave Huanhuan at our house."
Zhang Hongmei could actually help, but she and Yang Wenhui had the same idea.
After all, my daughter and grandchildren are more important.
Zhao Cui'e also felt sorry for Huanhuan, especially since Jianhua often took Huanhuan with him to help her look after Kang Kang during this period, which allowed her to have some time for herself. So after thinking for a moment, she didn't say anything immediately, but asked Huanhuan: "Huanhuan, do you want to go back to the city with your mother, or do you want to stay?"
Huanhuan tilted her head and looked at her, as if thinking.
At this moment, Xu Jianhua, who was obviously eavesdropping in the next room, anxiously shouted, "Huanhuan, don't go back to the city. Stay here and I'll take care of you."
After that, he said to the others with an air of adult, "Huanhuan is very well behaved. I can take care of her. I will take her to school when I go. I will take her to cut grass for pigs and run in the morning. After school, I will teach her to write. I will definitely not let you spend any effort to take care of her."
When Huanhuan heard this, her voice became a little louder, and she said crisply, "I want to be with my brother."
Zhang Hongmei was a little amused and helpless when she heard Xu Jianhua's words.
Doctor Chang looked at Huanhuan and began to think.
She also didn't want to be separated from her daughter, but if she took her back, she would have no time to take care of her. It would be better to leave her here for a year or two and take her back to go to school when she was older.
However, they have no relatives or friends with the Xu family, so why should the Xu family help her raise her daughter?
She really couldn't bring herself to ask them for help, and she wasn't that thick-skinned.
Xu Yu and the others saw what Dr. Chang was thinking.
Xu Yu said, "Doctor Chang, you should think about this carefully. Huanhuan is different from other children after all. Besides, she will definitely miss you when you leave, and it won't be good if she gets upset again."
Dr. Chang nodded.
After they made the bed, Xu Yu stayed for a while and then went back to their own room.
After washing up, Xu Yu leaned her head on Jiang Yi's arm and told him about Dr. Chang and Huanhuan.
Jiang Yi didn't offer any advice, but simply said, "Let Dr. Chang decide for himself."
Xu Yu thought it made sense, so he turned the topic to his second brother's pig farming.
Speaking of shipping it out, Xu Yu asked Jiang Yi: "Brother Yi, can you help me get a car when the time comes?"
Jiang Yi said, "I already have a car. It would be troublesome to get another one, and the higher-ups probably wouldn't approve it. But if they need it, we can give them our car."
"What if you need to go on a long trip later?"
"Send someone to pick me up, or ask Jianping to take the trouble to send me out."
Xu Yu thought about it and felt that this method was the best at the moment.
Jiang Yi raised his hand and gently stroked her back. They were facing each other. Even though he tried his best to lean back below the waist, his big belly was still against Xu Yu's.
At this time, the babies were a little excited, as if they were fighting inside.
Xu Yu felt like he was kicked and cried out in pain.
Jiang Yi immediately placed his large palm on her belly, patted the bulge, and said seriously, "Be quiet and go to sleep."
Then the two babies became really quiet.
Xu Yu couldn't help but laugh and said, "I feel like they'll definitely be afraid of you if they come out."
Jiang Yi pursed his lips tightly before speaking: "Then you will teach me how to make them not afraid."
Xu Yu smiled and reached out to touch his cheek, saying, "I was just kidding. I think you will be the best father in the future."
Jiang Yi couldn't help but kiss her on the forehead and said in a hoarse voice, "I will try my best to be the best father."
"Ah."
