Chapter 356: Chapter 352 Which is bigger and which is smaller? [550 votes+]

——————

At that moment, Zhou Xiuhua and Xie Tiesheng had already come looking, having entrusted the children to Xie Jingyang’s care, accompanied by Xie Jingzi.

Each of them also carried a thermal container in their hands.

Just then, seeing the Yan brothers there, Xie Tiesheng quickly stepped forward and handed the broth specially prepared for Qi Chunlan to Yan Jinchang, stuffing it into his hands with a grateful expression, excitedly saying:

"Commander Yan Rong, this is a nourishing broth prepared for your respected mother. Our family is extremely grateful for her righteous act. It seems too formal to speak of repayment between our families, so we’ve just prepared a little food for your mother. If you don’t find it objectionable, please take it."

Xie Tiesheng whispered to Yan Jinchang, and as he talked, he glanced at his wife and youngest son, who had already rushed forward to see the Third Son’s Wife. Hearing that the Third Son’s Wife had a fever, the whole family was shocked.

Upon hearing Yan Jinsi carefully explain that this was a postpartum phenomenon, everyone calmed down a bit.

Seeing that the Xie Family was all present, Yan Jinhao led his two younger brothers upstairs to visit their mother first. At parting, he did not stand on ceremony, generously taking the food prepared by Xie Tiesheng in his hand.

This indeed made Xie Tiesheng look at him in a new light.

If the Yan brothers had distantly refused, Xie Tiesheng would have thought to treat them as mere guests in future dealings, disregarding the notion of kinship.

But now it seemed that Commander Yan Rong was decent, and even Yan Da looked promising. Although Yan Xiao appeared somewhat frail, at least his values were quite decent. Xie Tiesheng did not know what Qi Chunlan did to make her daughter-in-law so resentful towards her own birth mother—particularly Qi Chunlan’s tone and actions in the last two instances, which had left a very poor impression on the Xie Family.

Yet, on this occasion, she was able to step forward and save Zhang Shanni.

Though Xie Tiesheng felt it wasn’t his place to criticize the Third Son’s Wife’s maternal family affairs, he agreed with Qi Chunlan’s action and felt that if Zhang Shanni acknowledged the Yan Family, it was still acceptable.

As parents, favoritism among many children is unavoidable.

But as long as one’s principles are upright and they can maintain the right mindset on major issues of right and wrong, that is commendable.

Knowing that the Third Son’s Wife was alright, Zhang Shanni left her under Jingchen’s care, while Xie Tiesheng, Zhou Xiuhua, and Xie Jingzi as a family of three surrounded the still-sleeping babies and looked over them tenderly.

Seeing the delicate and adorable infants made the family feel particularly joyful.

Especially Xie Jingzi, still with a young girl’s temperament, found her little nephews so cute that she exclaimed in a whisper, "Mother, the babies are so adorable, they look like Third Sister-in-law!"

In her heart, Third Sister-in-law was the most beautiful and kindest among the sisters-in-law. Plus, Zhang Shanni had, after all, saved her once, so to see the little nephews resembling Third Sister-in-law filled her heart with joy.

"Nonsense, they clearly look like your Third Brother! Look, this nose is so straight, it’s as if they were cast from the same mold as your Third Brother!"

Xie Jingzi saw her mother’s stern gaze, and after carefully scrutinizing for a while, she still thought the babies looked like Third Sister-in-law~~ Could it be that Mother thinks that it’s best if the children all resemble Third Brother?

Xie Tiesheng, however, did not engage in their mother-daughter trivialities. Seeing that the infants had full foreheads and thick and large earlobes, indicating a presence of noble and wealthy physiognomy, he was pleased.

As for who they resembled?

Pfft, why bother about such trivialities. In the end, they are the Third Son’s children; if not resembling the Third Son, then the Third Son’s Wife. The most important thing is that they grow up upright and proper, no matter who they look like.

The old man might not be skilled in physiognomy, but he could discern whether someone had a pleasing appearance or not, on that superficial level, he was somewhat knowledgeable.

Anyway, in the old man’s heart, these newborns looked good with wide foreheads and thick ears—that was the sign of a broad and blessed appearance!

"Right, San’er, are these two kids male or female—"

Before Xie Jingchen, who had just opened his mouth to answer, could speak, Xie Jingzi also interjected with a question:

"Third Brother, among the nephews, which one is older and which one is younger?"

Zhou Xiuhua felt that her youngest child had finally agreed with her opinion, so she turned to her son. Seeing her little daughter was even more eager than herself, a smile appeared on her face.

This little aunt is naturally curious about everything.

Moreover, these kids really do look good. On closer inspection, she felt that the children resembled the Third Son’s Wife quite a bit, but the grandmother, naturally, would unconsciously favor her own child.

Hearing her little daughter’s words, she immediately felt uncomfortable. It wasn’t that she disliked Zhang Shanni; she simply didn’t want the babies to look just like the Third Son’s Wife.

Besides, the two children were still young, and right now their facial features looked like Zhang Shanni, but who knows if they might change after a few days?

Anyway, she truly believed that the tall noses of these two children must resemble their own Third Son.

"Uh..." Xie Jingchen was asked by his mother and little sister in succession, and awkwardly lifting his gaze towards them, he whispered and innocently said to the three of them: "...nobody told me."

Zhou Xiuhua and Xie Tiesheng, the husband and wife, were taken aback. Was their third son this unreliable?

Glancing at the daughter-in-law, who was still on IV fluids, they thought it could be forgiven.

"Brother... so you can also be this—," Xie Jingzi was about to jest when she was silenced by a glare from her Third Brother, no longer daring to utter another word.

"Waaa, waaa, waaa~~"

Just as Xie Tiesheng and his wife were about to speak, the pair of babies, who had been sleeping very soundly, suddenly furrowed their brows one after another, crying loudly. At this point, the whole family couldn’t concern themselves with what they had been discussing before.

The grandmother and Xie Jingzi acted quickly, each picking up a baby, first touching their little foreheads and finding nothing abnormal with their temperature, then feeling their diapers. That’s when both mother and daughter discovered that the babies had wet the bed.

Coincidentally, at that moment, a nurse came in, saw the crying babies, and casually said, "Family members should change the baby’s clothes and then try to feed them more warm boiled water. It’s best to wait until they have passed the meconium before feeding them."

Zhou Xiuhua was taken aback; she had thought the babies could be breastfed as soon as they were born. Hearing what the nurse said, she realized that it was better for newborns to pass meconium first?

"Okay, thank you for the reminder, miss." Zhou Xiuhua thanked her when she heard this.

And by now, Xie Jingzi had already unwrapped the baby’s swaddle, revealing the gender, and she whispered, "So it’s a little nephew~~"

"Eh, the family didn’t know yet? Your daughter-in-law gave birth to boy-girl twins? It’s been a long time since our hospital has had twins like that; your daughter-in-law is really good at giving birth!"

The young nurse, who looked to be about twenty years old, saw Xie Jingzi’s surprised whisper, then turned back and smiled at the mother and daughter.

Because of the nurse’s words, the Xie Family was all surprised and happy. Having one male and one female was like completing the ’good’ character, what elder wouldn’t be happy!!

PS: ’Children, grandchildren’ in this context refers to boys, girls, grandsons, or granddaughters. Don’t think the mother-in-law only wants boys.
