Chapter 319
“Xin Xin, you are awake. You should be hungry right. A Yuan, hurry up feed Xin Xin a bit of food.” Old Madame Jing passes a thermos to Jing Bo Yuan.
Jing He’s VIP sickroom is as good as five-star hotel. It supplies a lot of things, but for food Old Madams think that it’s better to prepare food from home.
Jing Bo Yuan stands up and takes the thermos. He opens it and feeds it for Ye Qing Xin.
Ye Qing Xin just gave birth to the kids, she should eat more lighter and tasteless food.
The time she is eating, a baby suddenly wakes up and opens his mouth. He is crying silently, another baby starts to cry too. His voice is small and distressed the ones that hear it.
Old Madame Jing and Old Madame Sheng hurriedly carry up those who are crying. But it’s useless.
Ye Qing Xin feels sad to hear the crying. “Let me hold them…”
Old Madame Jing passes the kid to Ye Qing Xin. Ye Qing Xin tries to calm him down, but it’s useless too.
“Are they okay?” Old Madame Yan carries the one that is not crying. She says: “The youngest one doesn’t cry but he seems a bit unhappy.”
Those three babies are wearing different colors of onesie. Because they are fraternal triplets so they have different appearances.
The youngest one is frowning. He is unhappy.
“Didn’t they sleep well before, why are they unhappy now? Is it because it’s too hot?” Old madame Jing strokes the baby in Ye Qing Xin’s embrace. “He is sweaty, he should be hot.”
Ye Qing Xin cannot be in the cold place because she just gave birth. The temperature in the room is around 28 celcius. It’s not really hot.
“Is it the sweat or the tears?”
Everyone in the room is busy.
“If not should we call the nurse.” Ye Qing Xin says.
“That……” one of the maids raise her finger up. “Is it possible that three Xiao Shao Ye (young master) pee or….? Maybe they feel uncomfortable so they cry…”
Old Madame Jing slaps her forehead: “Right right, how can I forget that. Quick, check their diaper?”
Turns out the guess it’s right.
Three maids take warm water and three elders wipe and clean the babies’ bottom.
Ye Qing Xin looks at Jing Bo Yuan and smiles: “You should be the one that do it.”
Jing Bo Yuan says gently: “I just need to take care of you.”
Ye Qing Xin smiles and glares at him. “How can there’s a father like you. You are not close to the kids. Be careful they may hold grudge when they grow up.”
Jing Bo Yuan just laughs and says nothing else.
After that the babies are well-behaved.
“Do you guys notice that Xiao Bao (youngest) is different from Da Bao (Eldest baby) and Er Bao (Second baby)?” Old Madame Yan says. She is worried. “Before the two Ge Ge were crying, but he didn’t. Does it mean that he is not as smart as two Ge Ge?”
“It’s okay, he is similar like A Yuan. When A Yuan was little, he also didn’t cry. Look our A Yuan now is great right.” Old Madame Jing says proudly.
Then suddenly.
<knock> <knock>
The room is knocked. One of the maids opens the door. They are He Shu E and Song Xian Yu.
Song Xian Yu is holding Ji Nian Yu. She looks at the three babies. “I just met Dang Ge (Cheng Ru Yu), I heard from him that Xin Xin had given birth so I come over to visit.”
Ye Qing Xin greets both of them. “Ma, Sao Zi, come here and have a sit.”
Song Xian Yu sits down beside Ye Qing Xin’s bed. She praises her. “Xin Xin, you are so great.”
She takes three red pockets from her bag and passes it from Ye Qing Xin: “I just prepared at the last moment. Don’t turn it away.”
Ye Qing Xin wants to say something and Song Xian Yu says: “Don’t decline it, these are for the kids.”
Ye Qing Xin just says. “Then I’ll thank Shen Shen on behalf of the kids.”
He Shu E also passes the red pockets to Ye Qing Xin. Ye Qing Xin doesn’t refuse. “Thank you, Ma.”
He Shu E shows no expression. Today she is wearing her usual style dress. She wears the pearl necklace that she gave to her on Jing Bo Yuan’s behalf.
Jing Bo Yuan movs to sit down on the sofa.
Song Xian Yu lets Ji Nian Yu down. Song Xian Yu holds the Da Bao from Old Madame Jing. She plays with the Dao Bao and asks Ye Qing Xin. “Do you have the names the babies?”
Ji Nian Yu is like a little fat duck, she raises her little legs and walks toward Jing Bo Yuan. She opens her arms wide and asks Jing Bo Yuan to carry her.
Jing Bo Yuan carries her up and let her to sit down on his thigh. Ji Nian Yu is happy that her eyes are shining.
Ye Qing Xin suddenly feels that he likes girl than boy.
“Ahyo, I haven’t given any name for my great grandsons.” Old Madame Jing starts to be distressed: “What is good names for them?”
She cannot think of names right now.
“If you cannot think of the name now, maybe the nickname?”
“Look at three of us, we are so happy that we forget the importance to find names for the kids.” Old Madame Yan says. “Maybe we can call them Da Bao, Er Bao, Xiao Bao.”
Song Xian Yu: “…….” This………
“They have nickname.” Ye Qing Xin can think of something, she smiles. “The oldest will be called Nian Nian, Lao Er be Zhao Zhao, the youngest be Mu Mu.”
Song Xian Yu repeats it. Then she asks. “Why? Is there any meaning.”
Song Xian Yu repeats it and suddenly she realizes it. She ridicules Ye Qing Xin: “Zhao Zhao Mu Mu ( morning and evening) ah, this name has great meaning.”
Ye Qing Xin just smiles.
Old Madame Jing is confused and she just understands it. “Nian Nian You Yu (Having an abundance year after year), Zhao Zhao Mu Mu….. hoping that every day they will be happy and healthy. This is good. Our Xin Xin is really great. She is great at giving birth and also giving a name.”
Old Madame Jing is so proud of her.
Everyone: “……….”
So the babies finally get their nickname.
Song Xian Yu stays for a while and she gets a call. She says to Ye Qing Xin. “Lin Yuan comes to pick me and Nian Nian up, two days later you will be discharged right? I’ll come to visit Nian Nian and Zhao Zhao Mu Mu.”
Ye Qing Xin says: “Take care.”
The room is knocked. The maid opens the door. Ji Lin Yuan comes inside. He greets the elders and also Ye Qing Xin and Jing Bo Yuan. He takes Ji Nian Yu from Jing Bo Yuan.
Ji Nian Yu is unhappy, she pouts and cries broken-heartedly. She tries hard to go back to Jing Bo Yuan.
Ji Lin Yuan tries to hug her, Ji Nian Yu keeps on crying.
Old Madame Jing says: “Nian Nian likes A Yuan, just let A Yuan carries her. Why should you make her cry.”
Ji Lin Yuan says nothing and looks at Ji Nian Yu calmly.
Under Ji Lin Yuan’s strict gaze, Ji Nian Yu stops crying though her eyes keep on watching Jing Bo Yuan.
Ji Lin Yuan says to Old Madame Jing. “She is not crying anymore.”
Old Madame Jing: ‘….”
Ji Nian Yu starts to look at Song Xian Yu. She calls “Mama”.
Song Xian Yu returns Nian Nian to Old Madame Jing and goes to carry Ji Nian Yu. Ji Nian Yu shows her miserable expression to Song Xian Yu. Her eyes are teary.
“Is Papa scolding you?” Song Xian Yu asks.
Ji Nian Yu wants to cry again but the time she notices that Ji Lin Yuan is watching her. She immediately shuts up and just lays her head on Song Xian Yu’s shoulder.
Then Ji Lin Yuan takes Song Xian Yu and Ji Nian Yu to leave.
He Shu E keeps on being silent all along.
Her gaze falls on her grandsons. She seems to want to carry them up but she says nothing.
Jing Bo Yuan’s phone vibrates. He walks to the balcony to answer the call.
Ye Qing Xin notices that He Shu E is watching the babies. “Ma, you are here for long but you haven’t carry the babies. Wang Yi, take Nian Nian to let her Nai Nai carry him.”
He Shu E looks at Ye Qing Xin coldly: “No need.”
She says no but her eyes show her long to carry that baby.
Ye Qing Xin notices this and smiles. “You need to, Ma. Our family has a belief that after the kid is born, the grandma should carry him to ensure this lifetime he will be safe and healthy.”
This excuse is very ridiculous.
He Shu E says nothing. She seems to accept Ye Qing Xin’s statement.
She carries Nian Nian up. He Shu E’s eyes turn soft.
Jing Bo Yuan notices this.
On the phone, Jing Zong is still talking. “I’ll come over now. Before I arrived, please don’t let your Ma leave okay? Do you hear me? Your Pa’s latter half life is dependent on you.”
Hearing no response from Jing Bo Yuan, Jing Zong speaks up again: “Little brat, do you hear your father’s words?”
Jing Bo Yuan says: “For what happened that year, you really don’t min dit?”
Jing Zong is startled. He replies: “I know that you mind that year your Ma stabbed you because of man, but now she regrets it, you should be able to feel it. But you guys are still mother and son, we stil on efamily.”
Jing Bo Yuan just laughs lightly and says nothing.
Jing Zong says: “Now I need fifteen minutes. Okay. Bye.”
Jing Bo Yuan returns to the room.
“Bo Yuan, it’s great that you are here. Carry Zhao Zhao and pass him to Ma, so Ma can carry him.” Ye Qing Xin says.
Jing Bo Yuan looks at Ye Qing Xin. He notices that she wants to do something.
Jing Bo Yuan carries Zhao Zhao up and passes him to He Shu E. He Shu E notices that Jing Bo Yuan doesn’t refuse Ye Qing Xin’s request. He Shu E feels complicated. She stands up and passes Nian Nian to the maid. Then she goes to take Zhao Zhao from Jing Bo Yuan.
“Thank you.”
“No worries.” Jing Bo Yuan replies.
He Shu E smiles when she hears his formal replies.
