Chapter 1973: Chapter 76: Feint to the East, Strike to the West
Wen Ru shook her head, "It’s fine."
She smiled at the little one in the swaddle.
The little one had his eyes closed but furrowed his brows like a little old man.
The nurse looked at everyone, "Gentlemen, please step outside."
The old man, Qin Shaojin, and Huo Jinnan knew what was next and left the ward.
The nurse held the baby for Wen Ru to nurse.
Wen Ru lay there, a bit embarrassed, and blushed slightly.
Wen Nuan watched from the side, pursed her lips, and thought about how she hadn’t nursed Xiaoshi, Xiaoshiyi, or Xiaoshi’er, feeling a bit sour inside.
Bi Fu looked at Wen Nuan, "What’s with that expression?"
Wen Nuan looked at Bi Fu, "I suddenly feel really sorry for Xiaoshi, Xiaoshiyi, and Xiaoshi’er."
Qin Huan and the old lady had been somewhat subdued, but upon hearing Wen Nuan’s words, they couldn’t hold back and burst out laughing.
Qin Huan looked at Wen Nuan, "With three of them, how were you going to feed them?"
The old lady looked at Wen Nuan, "If you feed two and not one, they’ll grow up resenting you."
Wen Nuan, "..."
She tilted her head, looking at Qin Huan and the old lady, "True, that does make me feel better."
Qin Huan and the old lady, "..."
Did they just give her an excuse?
Wen Nuan looked at Qin Moting and Wen Ru, "Uncle, Aunt, have you named the little baby yet?"
Qin Moting looked at Wen Nuan, "Yes, we’ve decided on Xiaoyi."
Wen Nuan puffed out her cheeks, "Uncle and Aunt are following the trend too, what if they go out and are mistaken for siblings later?"
Qin Moting, "Xiaoyi, it clearly sounds like an elder."
Wen Nuan, "..."
I guess that’s true!
Why does it feel a bit like they’re aiming for world domination?
Could Uncle and Aunt secretly be thinking that their baby will one day lead a large group of nieces, nephews, grand-nieces, and grand-nephews?
No way!
Doesn’t that make Xiaoshi’er the youngest?
Thinking about Young Lord Xiaoshi’er, she felt delighted inside, "In the future, the babies of the Qin Family and the Huo Family will be called the Hong Kong Seven Lords..."
She paused for a moment, counted silently in her heart, Xiaowei, Xiaoliao, Tuantuan, Xiaoshi, Xiaoshiyi, Xiaoshi’er, and Xiaoyi, that’s seven, Xiaoqi, Yuanyuan, Nini, three.
Finally, counting it clearly, she looked at everyone giving her their full attention, and let out a long breath, "In the future, the babies of the Qin Family and the Huo Family will be called the Hong Kong Seven Lords and the Hong Kong Three Beauties."
The old lady, "..."
Even she couldn’t agree with that.
Bi Fu, "..."
She really wanted to find a wad of tissue and stuff it in Wen Nuan’s mouth. This girl, after getting married and becoming a mom, has gotten even more naïve!
Qin Moting cleared his throat lightly and didn’t comment.
Qin Huan looked at Wen Nuan, "That’s all a bit ostentatious, isn’t it?"
Wen Nuan thought about it, "You’re right!"
She stuck out her tongue, "So what should we call them?"
Qin Huan looked at Wen Nuan, "Isn’t it better to not call them anything? Names like Xiaoyi and Xiaoshiyi are quite endearing."
Wen Nuan smiled, revealing two sweet dimples, "You’re right."
Bi Fu sat there, without saying a word.
If she didn’t know better, she would doubt that Wen Nuan was her and Old Wen’s child; she was nothing like them! And not at all like Aunt!
...
In the evening, Jin Bo and Zhong Qin returned from Winter City, heard the news, and headed straight to the hospital.
Arriving at the ward, Zhong Qin saw Wen Ru and the child, finally breathed a sigh of relief, squeezed Wen Ru’s hand, "That’s good, but you really need to take care of yourself."
Wen Ru smiled and didn’t say anything.
Zhong Qin looked at Qin Moting, "Take good care of Xiaoru, having a baby at such an age is really tough."
