After a long while, her cheeks moved slightly as she grinded on her molars.
And calmly said: “Big tree, do you know how to change your child’s diaper?”
“……” Big tree who was pouring a cup of tea, paused and squinted silently.
Chen Jinyao did not let him off the leash: “Do you know how to bathe your child?”
Big tree took a deep breath, his gaze avoiding hers, as he felt slightly embarrassed.
Chen Jinyao: “Can you not scream if he urinates on you?”
Big tree’s face was flushed red, and said, “……shut up.”
After three consecutive rounds of questioning, Chen Jinyao’s mood instantly brightened as she watched Yan Cheng’s ego deflate, and smiled with her eyes happily.
After a while.
Yan Cheng pursed his lips and said, “Neither can you.”
“……”
Upon hearing that, Chen Jinyao’s smile gradually disappeared.
“I should have enrolled in some classes to learn.”
It’s just that he didn’t envision this far in time back then, and he wasted his time on books, thinking that it was easy to take care of a baby, but forgot the saying that goes “What’s learned from books is superficial after all.”
Yan Cheng didn’t have the time then, but she did.
Now, neither of them had the time.
Upon thinking of this, Chen Jinyao felt bad and couldn’t help but sigh.
So, up to now.
The two of them could only make hasty last-minute efforts.
During this period of time, except for Yan Cheng, Mother Yan and Mother Chen were also always at the hospital. They both were once pregnant too so they had experience in this. Every time they held Yan Chi to change his clothes, they handled him with much ease and the couple secretly learned from them.
Sometimes, Yan Cheng would “experiment” what he learnt right on the spot.
The man was very clumsy and careless. Even if he was already very cautious, he still inevitably made Yan Chi cry.
“He’s even uglier when he cries.” Yan Cheng frowned like him, and muttered in a low voice.
As soon as his voice fell, the cry got even louder, as if his voice could lift the roof right open.
Every so often, although Mother Chen adored her grandson, she didn’t comment much on this.
Mother Yan was much more direct, she slapped Yan Cheng on the back.
After staring at him disgustingly, she began to shame him.
“Do you think you were good looking when you were a newborn?”
“I was worried that you would have low self-esteem because of your looks, that’s why I spoiled you even more.”
Mother Yan then said, “Aigoo,” she was worried. “He will feel uncomfortable if you hold him like this. Support his neck. Be careful and don’t squish his hands.”
“Why are you so stupid.”
Yan Cheng: “……”
Mother Chen: “If the both of you really can’t handle this, just look for a babysitter after you’re released from the hospital.”
After a pause, she glanced at Chen Jinyao and sighed, “Young people nowadays, they’re scared of a wet diaper.”
Chen Jinyao shrugged, but in fact she wasn’t.
“Don’t get a babysitter. He’s your own kid, it’ll be better for you guys to look after him on your own.” Her cheeks were puffed up as she rejected Mother Chen’s proposal. “Yan Cheng and her are new to all this, so they would for sure need some time to adapt.”
“You can use nappy liners.” Yan Cheng pursed his lips and answered.
Mother Chen: “Those are too stuffy, baby’s butts are really soft, it’s not good for them to be in such a stuffy environment all the time.”
After a pause, she said to Chen Jinyao, “Okay, you two can talk about the babysitter on your own. You are both adults now, I won’t need to worry about it.”
“……”
Mother Chen walked towards the bed and held Chen Jinyao’s hand very naturally: “You, I really have nothing more to worry about now.”
She spoke earnestly, and from time to time she looked at Yan Cheng who was holding Yan Chi and coaxing him softly, “Yan Cheng is a good man.”
“It’ll only get better for the both of you.” Mother Chen smiled, and the wrinkles in the corners of her eyes deepened, “Jinlin is the one I’m worried for.”
“………”
There was less than a month left.
Chen Jinlin would then graduate from university.
Last semester, she entered Chen’s for an internship.
From now on, the Chen’s would belong to them both.
“Jinlin is interested in the company. If she is capable, your father’s current position will be hers. During this period of time, based on her performance, your father said that she is good at everything, but she’s too fussy and not calm enough.”
“She doesn’t have the demeanour a boss should have.”
“She is a girl after all, and she can’t do it without any help.” Mother Chen sighed, “I don’t know how many people are eyeing at the company.”
