Chapter 26 It’s okay
Chapter 26 It’s okay
The child's long and thick eyelashes fluttered slightly like butterfly wings, casting a large shadow on his face. A few of them accidentally rubbed against overflowing tears, and crystal water droplets hung on them, precariously hanging, just like his inner feelings at the moment.
Seeing this, Wu Shujie took the child into her arms, patted his back and asked soothingly, "Why are you crying again?"
Wen Yiche also felt a little embarrassed, his face and ears were flushed, but his nose was sour. It would have been better if he didn't try to persuade her. Once he tried to persuade her, the tears hanging on his eyelashes fell down with a click.
"Mom, I said such harsh words to my sister. Will she no longer like me?"
Wen Yiche's voice was muffled and choked. He felt sad when he thought that his sister Bai Yuan would never practice piano with him again.
Wu Shujie thought that such a big kid was really interesting. He would treat the smallest thing as if the sky was falling. She winked at her husband who was watching the fun on the bed.
Wen Zhe received the signal, made an OK gesture, quietly raised his mobile phone to take a picture of his crying son, and pressed the record button.
The 200-megapixel camera recorded the uneasiness on Wen Yiche's face and his pitiful look with tears in the corners of his eyes with super clarity and no blind spots.
Ten years later, when the children have grown up and started to care about their reputation, I will take it out and look at it. Hey, it’s interesting just thinking about it.
Wu Shujie waited until her husband finished taking the pictures before she took out a wet wipe and carefully wiped her son's face.
"Your sister isn't that stingy. Just go and apologize to her sincerely tomorrow and ask for her forgiveness."
"Really?" Wen Yiche's eyes lit up, then dimmed a little. He looked distraught, like a kicked puppy, and choked up, "But my sister has ignored me for several days."
Wu Shujie slapped her thigh and said, "Stupid, she ignored you, so you won't take the initiative to find her? Tomorrow, mom will take you to Grandma Jiang's house to find Sister Bai Yuan!"
Wen Yiche immediately burst into laughter: "Thank you, Mom. You are so kind."
"Yeah, okay, okay, go to bed, go."
After sending Wen Yiche away, Wu Shujie yawned, threw back the quilt and got into bed. The warm temperature inside made her very satisfied. She reached out to turn off the bedside lamp while talking to her husband:
"Just wait and see. I think our son will be a love-brained man when he grows up."
The next day, Wen Yiche and Wu Shujie went to visit the Jiang family as soon as they got out of school.
After entering the house and greeting the two elders of the Jiang family, Wu Shujie found that Jiang Zhi was also there, with a sad face and sighing.
Bai Yuan took a day off early this morning and did not go to class. Now he was sitting next to Jiang Zhi. Compared with his mother who was worried, he looked calmer.
After sitting down and chatting with Jiang Zhi for a while, I finally understood the whole story.
Jiang Zhi has been feeling unwell these past few days, with a tendency to be sleepy, eat less, and feel anxious.
At first I thought it was because I had worked too hard at the company recently and got sick, so I rested at home for two days, and when I felt there was nothing serious, I went back to work.
As a result, at noon today, the family of Zhao Meiting, the nanny who was hired to take care of Bai Yuan but ended up losing the child, came to the company to make trouble, saying that they were dissatisfied with the court's decision and demanded that Jiang Zhi give an explanation.
It wasn't a big deal and was resolved in less than half an hour.
But when Jiang Zhi returned to the company and took the elevator upstairs, she suddenly felt a black screen in front of her eyes, her legs went weak, and she fainted in the elevator the next second.
Fortunately, there were four or five secretaries and special assistants in the elevator at the time. They quickly called 120 for emergency assistance and sent her to the hospital.
After entering the ward and the doctor's examination, Jiang Zhi found out that she was more than three months pregnant.
In their couple's plan, they originally only planned to have Bai Yuan.
Having a child is time-consuming, laborious and painful.
Especially when Bai Yuan was born, Jiang Zhi suffered from difficult labor, premature birth, and heavy bleeding. She almost died in the delivery room.
It was enough to go through this kind of dangerous thing once. Bai Hui was determined not to have a second child and would never let his wife suffer the same pain she had experienced before.
Besides, the couple were busy with work and saw Bai Yuan only a few times throughout the year, otherwise the incident with nanny Zhao Meiting would not have happened.
Moreover, the older the child gets, the more Jiang Zhi can feel that she is more distant from him than close to him.
They are always polite every time they meet. Although there is nothing wrong with the etiquette, it is not the normal way for a mother and daughter to get along.
Every time Jiang Zhi thought of this, she felt a pang of sadness in her heart.
It was a serious dereliction of duty for her not to be by her daughter's side when she needed her mother the most.
Now she is planning to start cultivating her relationship with her daughter and make up for the lack of companionship in the past.
If there was another little one at this time, not to mention whether Bai Yuan would become more unfamiliar with her, the most important thing was that she simply had no time and energy to take care of the newborn child.
But if she said no, she was already more than three months pregnant and the fetus was slowly taking shape.
Looking at the embryonic shape on the color ultrasound in the hospital, it already looked like a baby.
As a mother, she couldn't bear to abort the child at this time.
Jiang Zhi returned to the Jiang family with something on her mind and decided to tell Bai Yuan about this matter to see what her attitude was.
If her daughter insists on not wanting a younger brother or sister and is very resistant to the child, then she can make up her mind to go to the hospital for surgery without having to worry anymore.
But unexpectedly, Bai Yuan had no reaction at all. He was neither happy nor sad, and he didn't even have any extra expression. Even his tone was indifferent. The words "take care of yourself" made Jiang Zhi feel like she was sitting in an office, and the boss was doing his job in giving instructions to his subordinates.
She thought the child didn't know what having another child meant, so she broke the matter down and fed it to her, analyzing the pros and cons with her.
Bai Yuan listened carefully and nodded seriously.
When Jiang Zhi asked her, "Do you want a brother or sister?"
The little girl's tone was still calm, with no signs of emotional ups and downs:
"It will be all right."
Jiang Zhi: ...
The above is why Jiang Zhi looked so worried when Wu Shujie came.
Wen Yiche sat properly at the side, looking at Bai Yuan from time to time.
He quickly understood what had happened and knew that Bai Yuan might have a younger sister or brother, or she might not.
Wen Yiche himself is an only child, and his understanding of his brothers and sisters is limited to his squirrel-like little cousin and his favorite sister Bai Yuan, so he cannot give any reference opinions.
But he has classmates, some of whom have brothers and sisters at home. He silently took note of this and decided to ask them tomorrow about their attitude towards their younger brothers and sisters, for reference.
Bai Yuan listened to the two adults' conversation silently. She knew that they cared a lot about her attitude, but she really had no opinion on whether she had a younger brother or sister.
It’s really up to you. Anything is fine.
It’s okay to have it, but it’s also okay not to have it.
If the child is born, she will be placed in the home of her grandparents, or raised in the home of her grandparents. In any case, she definitely cannot be raised by her parents alone, as they are too unreliable.
As for whether the child will feel lonely due to the lack of parental companionship, or develop a sense of independence as early as she did, that is something the child, who was born seven months later, should consider.
If you don't give birth -
For Bai Yuan, it just means maintaining the status quo.
