Everyone cracked up after hearing Old Mr. Li’s complaints.
Ye Youyou came forward and helped Old Mr. Li over to the sofa to take a seat. The elderly man snorted before saying, “What are you laughing about? I didn’t say anything wrong, did I?”
The elderly man was hunched over, and his silver hair was spa.r.s.e but fluffy. The wrinkles and age spots on his face were obvious, and he walked over to the sofa slowly, saying, “In the past, we had midwives who would do the work on their own. Now, when we want to hire someone to help deliver the child, we have to go to a hospital to get a midwife. Oh, no. This position sounds more impressive now. They call it a Gynecologist.”
“Grandpa, have some tea.” Su Qianci handed a cup of tea to Old Mr. Li. She couldn’t help but smile. “The doctor is still in there,” she said. “She’ll be displeased if she hears this.”
“Why would she be displeased?” Old Mr. Li accepted the tea. “She must be over the moon since she can earn some extra income over the Lunar New Year. But Qianqian, why didn’t the kids come?”
“The kids are at home. Dasu brought his friend over for the New Year. Since Nanny Rong doesn’t have much to do at home this year, I asked her to help look after the kids and return to her hometown for the New Year tomorrow.” Su Qianci sat down beside Li Sicheng. She had a gentle smile on her face when she talked about the children.
Old Mr. Li nodded his head when he heard this. “That’s great. It’s great that the kids are so obedient. I was still afraid that the two of you wouldn’t be able to handle it if you had to take care of the three children by yourselves. Is Dasu’s friend that kid who came over from the capital?”
“Yes. His name is Chu.”
“Right. His full name is something along the lines of Yu Chulin, isn’t it? It sounds pretty nice.” Old Mr. Li nodded his head. “Regardless of whether Qianqian’s child is a boy or a girl, I’ve already settled on the child’s name. It’ll be Li Moyun.”
“Grandpa, what about me?” Li Jinnan moved closer. “I’ll be having my first child. Grandpa, you’ll have to think of a name for me.”
“Hmgh. You want me to think of a name for you? What shall it be?”
“I don’t know,” he said. As Li Jinnan wanted Old Mr. Li to name his child, he had never once thought about a name for it.
“I’ve thought of the name for our eldest one. If it’s a boy, we’ll call him Li Yuanhang. If it’s a girl, we’ll call her Li Qinhuan.”
“Sounds great!” Li Jinnan eagerly flattered him. “Then what about mine?”
Old Mr. Li gave him a look of contempt, then reached out his hand to give him a shove on his face. “No hurry for yours,” he replied. “I’ll think about it in time.”
Li Sicheng’s lips curled up into a smile. “Grandpa, I bought some bacon for you,” he said. “I’ll get Mum to cook some for you.”
“I’m toothless. I won’t be able to chew it.” The elderly man snorted and turned his head away. “Don’t you know better than to get something tough for your grandfather to eat?”
“It’s specially processed, so it isn’t tough to chew,” Su Qianci interrupted. “I’ve tried it already, and it’s very soft. It melts in your mouth, and the taste is especially good.”
“What’s so good about that, then?” The elderly man was slightly melancholic. “I’m old, I’m old. It’s already a miracle that I’ve been able to make it to this age. What more could I ask for? I have many grandchildren, and I’ve lived a full life.”
“Waa!”
Everyone’s attention was fully captured by the loud and clear sound of a baby’s wail.
As if he were a released coil, Li Beixing sprang up and laughed out loud, saying, “She delivered!”
As he said this, it crossed his mind to go inside and take a look. “Don’t allow anyone in. I’ll clean the child.”
Qin Shuhua was obviously aware of what this meant, and amidst her excitement, she held onto her son and asked, “Is it a boy or a girl?”
“It’s a boy. Both the mother and child are safe.”
