Du Meng, being a natural birth, came out much quicker, but she looked extremely haggard. The sweat on her forehead had yet to dry, and upon seeing Su He, tears welled up in her eyes again.
"It hurts so much; why is giving birth so exhausting?"
Su He quickly squatted down, holding Du Meng's hand and kissing her forehead. "Wife, you’ve worked hard! We’re not having any more children. I’ve been waiting out here too; it’s been tough for me as well."
Du Meng replied, "What are you suffering for? Have you even seen the baby?"
"I did look!" Su He exclaimed. "But when I turned back, where was the baby?"
"Hey? Where’s the baby? Mom, where’s my baby?" Su He hurriedly asked, standing up and searching for the child, looking more like a fool.
He Xiaoqing chimed in, "Stop acting like a silly goose! Quickly push Meng Meng to the ward to rest; it’s chilly in this corridor!"
"Meng Meng, don’t worry. The baby has been taken for cleaning and vaccinations. After you get some good sleep, you’ll be able to see her!"
Du Meng smiled faintly. "I’m so tired, Mom! Please keep an eye on the baby and her unreliable father. Don’t let that silly Su He take care of her; he might lose her!"
Everyone laughed and then accompanied Du Meng back to the ward. At that moment, Du Gang felt a pang in his heart; after all, his daughter was without her biological mother by her side.
Fortunately, He Xiaoqing was a kind-hearted person who had always treated Du Meng well, and their relationship was quite good.
Du Gang and Du Meng kept a low profile while sitting in the living room of the suite. They welcomed guests without making too much fuss. Even when representatives from the Shen Family arrived, he didn’t overly flatter Shen Huai Min.
Privately, Su Xing couldn’t help but whisper to her husband, "Jing Yu, have you noticed? It seems like Du Gang has suddenly matured."
Shen Jingyu chuckled and shook his head. "He’s somewhat awakened but not entirely! Most likely because of the Su Family’s status rising with this heroic identity; he’s learned to tone it down."
Su Xing hadn’t considered this point until Shen Jingyu pointed it out. She hadn’t realized how different their family had become due to their connection with this hero!
After being busy at the hospital for most of the day and night, Su Xing finally couldn’t hold on any longer and was forcibly taken away by Shen Jingyu.
In private, Shen Jingyu couldn’t help but lecture her: "You woman! You just love to show off! Don’t you know what condition your body is in? Why do you insist on staying here? So many people from the Su Family are here—your uncles and aunts, even your grandparents—why do you need to deal with those other relatives?"
Su Xing stuck out her tongue and then comfortably leaned into Shen Jingyu's embrace. "Well, we have our Shen Family here too! It’s only normal for me to entertain my in-laws more! Plus, doesn’t it show how much I value my husband’s family?"
Shen Jingyu initially felt speechless at her words, but since she was dear to him, he began to massage her shoulders and neck.
"Are you feeling better? Relax a bit and you can sleep for a while. Once we get home, I'll carry you back," he said. Shen Jingyu chose not to linger on the matter; instead, he thought it better to let her rest more.
Su Xing made herself comfortable in the back seat, nestling against Shen Jingyu's legs and falling asleep facing his waist. Shen Jingyu felt a mix of frustration and helplessness at the situation.
After twelve hours of sleep, Su Xing finally woke up, prompting Shen Jingyu to ask his aunt if this was normal for her.
Shen Huairou chuckled and replied, "Jingyu, you can relax a bit. It's perfectly normal for a pregnant woman to be sleepy. Her drowsiness is completely natural, and your tension might inadvertently add pressure on her."
Su Xing indeed had a lot on her mind but rarely shared it with others.
Feeling somewhat reassured, Shen Jingyu began to gradually shift his work responsibilities after confirming Su Xing's pregnancy. He delegated tasks across the board and devoted himself entirely to being by Su Xing's side.
Three days later, Du Meng was discharged from the hospital. Mu Beiyao and Lu Xiangyi went together to visit her and the baby. This was their friend's first niece, and Mu Beiyao had been particularly eager to see her but had been unable to visit immediately due to family matters.
However, the gifts that Mu Beiyao and Lu Xiangyi brought were of the highest quality!
Su Xing couldn't help but exclaim, "Mu Beiyao, Xiangyi, you two really brought out your best stuff! What are you planning to give me when I have my baby?"
Mu Beiyao waved her hand dismissively, "Don't be so polite! Since we said it's our best stuff, it must not be of too much value. Don't underestimate yourself! Once you give birth, we'll send you a gift that will outshine anything from the Shen family! How about that?"
In truth, Mu Beiyao was trying to reassure Du Meng. Having grown up surrounded by luxury brands, Du Meng easily recognized the pendant adorned with a piece of jadeite—its value was considerable!
Lu Xiangyi also gifted her something special—jewelry she had personally designed featuring rare rubies paired with pink diamonds. It was priceless!
Su Xing remarked on how extraordinary it all was.
Du Meng felt overwhelmed with gratitude; having such a sister-in-law was truly a stroke of luck—she felt as if she had accumulated great virtue over several lifetimes.
Su Xing made sure Du Meng had enough time to rest and took the two women out to the living room for some casual chatting. He Xiaoqing prepared soup for her daughter-in-law while also making sure there was food for all three girls.
The nanny arranged by Su Xing for the Su family was only responsible for cleaning; they still preferred homemade meals prepared by family members—this was also He Xiaoqing's decision.
Even Little Heiress Lu Xiangyi praised, "Auntie, having a mother-in-law like this is rare in the world—perfect for home life; everyone envies it!"
Su Xing caught on to something in her tone and asked playfully, "What’s going on with your mother-in-law?"
Lu Xiangyi let out a long sigh.
It's all about preparing for the wedding! Everything seems to be involved, and recently, it even crept into our married life!
I heard that I don't want to have children. Can you guess what she did? Lu Xiangyi's expression was rich with emotion.
Su Xing and Mu Beiyao shook their heads in unison, "What happened?"
She barged into my and Rong Xigu's apartment and made a mess of things! Can you believe that this is something a noblewoman would do?
Su Xing tried to suppress a laugh; this was the trouble of having a mother-in-law!
Mu Beiyao raised an eyebrow, "At least your mother didn't bring you any fertility soup, right? And you weren't forced to stay at your in-laws' place, were you?"
Su Xing raised an eyebrow in response, "Could it be?"
Mu Beiyao nodded helplessly, "That soup was absolutely terrible!"
And you wouldn't believe it; I accidentally discovered that there was a particularly exquisite incense in Lu Xiangyi's room. After lighting it, I realized what it was for.
Some things are better left in the past! Imagine her, a remarkable woman, unable to get out of bed, sleeping until late morning, then drinking nourishing soup under the watchful eyes of the Lu Family.
Su Xing concluded, "You should hurry up and get married! You two are definitely suited for late marriage and late childbirth!"
