Chapter 258 The Little Fatty Weighs 8 Pounds

When it comes to their son and grandson, the Gu family father and son are extremely clueless.

Completely absorbed in his own excitement, he failed to notice the longing glances Lu Yuanqing and Lu Yuanbo were giving him, which kept peeking into the room.

Lu Yuanbo, in particular, had his thoughts written all over his face, but the father and son, immersed in the joy of sharing, were completely unaware.

"Third Uncle, Fourth Uncle! You're here!"

Suddenly, Lu Mingxi's voice came from the courtyard gate.

After getting off work, Lu Mingxi rushed here without stopping, without even having time to go home.

The Lu family weathered the disaster together and witnessed their family gradually getting better and better.

The emotional bond between them is much stronger than that between ordinary families.

However, even among family members, feelings can vary.

This doesn't mean their relationship is bad or that there's a rift between them.

However, there are always better relationships.

Lu Yuanhuan and Lu Mingxi are close in age and have shared a room since childhood. In addition, Lu Yuanhuan is a very tolerant person, and Lu Mingxi is willing to tell her everything.

Over the years, only the two of them have lived in the city, relying on each other. Being girls, they have become inseparable and can talk about anything.

Compared to his other brothers, Lu Yuanhuan naturally clung to Lu Yuanhuan more.

"Xiao west is back!" Gu Yushan said.

"Off work?" Lu Yuanqing asked.

Lu Mingxi smiled and nodded, then greeted everyone one by one.

After shouting, he couldn't wait to go inside.

"Third Uncle, you two chat, I'm going inside to check on my aunt and brother!" Lu Mingxi said as he walked away.

Although it's already the third day, she's still very happy every time she sees the baby.

It's been a long time since I've seen my third uncle and the others, and I have a lot to say to them.

But Lu Mingxi knew that since they had come to the city, they would definitely stay for a few days, so there was no rush to say anything now.

Watching Lu Mingxi skip and hop into the house, Lu Yuanqing and Lu Yuanbo exchanged a glance, both seeing envy in each other's eyes.

"Still like a child." Lu Yuanqing shook his head with a smile.

She still walks with a bouncy, skipping gait.

……

Lu Yuanqing finally met Lu Yuanhuan and the baby after dinner.

Looking at Lu Yuanhuan, who appeared somewhat haggard but whose energy had recovered, Lu Yuanqing opened his mouth, wanting to ask, "Does it hurt?"

But as soon as the thought crossed his mind, he stopped himself from asking the question.

How could it not hurt!

How could childbirth not be painful?

"Third Brother, Fourth Brother!" Lu Yuanhuan couldn't help but show joy when he saw the two of them.

Lu Yuanbo glanced at Lu Yuanhuan, then turned his gaze to the child beside him.

He tried to move, wanting to give her a hug, but didn't know how.

Lu Yuanqing: "Giving birth is like walking through the gates of hell, so you need to take good care of yourself now. You can't do anything during your postpartum period, understand?"

As Lu Yuanqing gave his instructions, he looked around the room.

He was worried that Lu Yuanhuan might be tempted to cool off while she was in postpartum confinement, especially since the weather was a bit hot.

These are words that a mother should be giving instructions to, but that's just how their family is.

As the older brother, he didn't care about saying anything he shouldn't have; as long as it was for Lu Yuanhuan's good, he said it all.

He had stumbled upon this knowledge while surfing the internet in his previous life.

"Yes, Third Brother, Mom told me all this too, I remember," Lu Yuanhuan said gently.

"Third Brother, come and see Bajin! You've never seen him before!"

With a tender, maternal love on her face, Lu Yuanhuan looked at the girl lying on the bed beside her, her eyes wide open as she wandered around, having just finished eating. Her gaze became even more loving.

Mother's love is great, and even more so, magical.

No matter how detailed other people's explanations are, it's something you can't truly understand until you become a mother.

But once you become a mother, this instinct suddenly emerges.

Lu Yuanhuan understands now.

From the moment Bajin was safely brought into this world, from the first moment she saw him, she forgot all the discomfort she had experienced during her pregnancy, and even more so, she forgot the immense pain she had endured during childbirth.

Looking at that little face, she felt a deep sense of satisfaction.

Lu Yuanqing looked at the baby with a big smile, finally seeing him.

Eight pounds? What a chubby little guy!

I had already heard this nickname, which sounded quite special, from Gu Yushan when we were chatting casually.

Because he weighed eight jin at birth, he was nicknamed "Eight Jin" (meaning "Eight Jin").

Looking at the fair-skinned chubby boy, Lu Yuanqing felt a mix of bittersweet emotions.

He was pleased that Lu Yuanhuan had a good pregnancy and that Gu Yushan had taken good care of her, which is why the baby weighed a full eight pounds.

I also feel sorry for Lu Yuanhuan during childbirth; who knows how much suffering she must have endured.

Regardless of his mood, the moment the chubby boy smiled at him, Lu Yuanqing abandoned all his thoughts.

"So good, Bajin, so beautiful, just like you, your nose is like yours, your eyes are like yours, and your mouth is like yours too!"

Lu Yuanhuan: "..."

That sounds familiar.

Oh!

Gu Yumei said the same thing, except that she said Bajin looked like Gu Yushan.

Lu Yuanhuan tilted her head, looking at her son, her mind a complete blank. She couldn't tell who he looked like!

Lu Yuanqing had no idea about her dilemma; his eyes were fixed on the chubby boy.

Wow, those eyelashes are so long! Just like the Lu family, everyone in the Lu family has long eyelashes.

Her small mouth was slightly open, and it was very rosy, just like her younger sister. Lu Yuanhuan didn't need to wear lipstick even when she was wearing makeup.

Her two little hands were clenched into fists, and she would shake them every now and then. She was so cute.

Such an obedient child, no wonder he is a child of the Lu family.

Her fair, chubby face gave Lu Yuanqing a sweet smile, which excited Lu Yuanqing so much that he wanted to take a bite out of her.

The child is too young to bite.

……

In the evening, Gu's mother and Gu Yushan took care of Lu Yuanhuan and his mother, while the Lu family went back to the next room to rest.

Lu Yuanqing, in particular, was prone to motion sickness. Once in the city, he didn't even have time to rest before heading straight to the neighbor's.

I'm lying in bed now, but my mind is still racing, thinking about what to buy for the little fat boy tomorrow.

As his uncle, I naturally had to buy him some clothes and such.

He could have bought it at the commune, but the commune's supply was limited and didn't meet his expectations.

Therefore, the little fat boy's gift will have to wait until we get to the city.

Not only did he want to buy it, but everyone else in the family wanted to buy it too. While packing their luggage, they were all talking about what they wanted to buy for their younger brother.

Compared to the older ones, who are already receiving salaries and don't lack money, the younger ones earn money entirely by vying to do housework.

Now, most of the housework is handled by the three younger children.

Because they had managed to save some money.

Naturally, he also excitedly expressed his desire to buy a gift for his younger brother.

Thinking back to the little rascals who were discussing what to buy tomorrow while washing their faces and feet, Lu Yuanqing smiled.

I wonder if they have enough money.

He never cared about their slush funds.

But it seems these guys aren't that frugal!

After a smile, drowsiness overcame him, and Lu Yuanqing immediately closed his eyes and fell asleep, no longer thinking about anything else.
