glory [rebirth]

Mu Qingtong still felt weakness in his limbs and faint pain in his lower abdomen. When the nurse took his blood pressure, he told him that this was normal, and it would gradually disappear after two to three days.

His belly was only a little smaller than before, but it still looked big. Before giving birth, Mu Qingtong checked the information, and it said that it would take a while to recover slowly.

The nurse tied him a belly belt, which made him a little uncomfortable, but he could only endure it because he thought it would help him get back into shape faster.

After waking up, he submitted an application for medical relief, and the person in charge is verifying it. Since both he and the child are very healthy, they will be discharged from the hospital in three days.

Because Liangliang was too young, until Mu Qingtong woke up, the nurse didn't feed him anything, only gave him a little sugar water, and said that the milk powder could be mixed after 24 hours.

Mu Qingtong seldom holds children, and this is the first time he has seen such a small baby. The children he has come into contact with before are basically a few years old, and there is no pressure to hold them.

But Liangliang was lying next to him with his eyes closed, but he slowly picked him up as if instinctively, letting him lean against him.

Liangliang's forehead is full of vellus hair that has faded, and his face is fluffy. He can't tell where his eyebrows are, and his eyes and nose can't tell where he looks like his parents, but his outline is very typical of the West. As a child, I didn't inherit any of Mu Qingtong's Asian features.

Mu Qingtong couldn't help but feel a little regretful about this. He remembered that Jiang Yao had told him before that he hoped this boy could look like him, but now that Liangliang was born, Jiang Yao's wish was completely thwarted by this appearance.

I don't know how Jiang Yao will feel when he sees a smaller version of himself?Mu Qingtong poked the corner of Liangliang's mouth lightly with a smile. Liangliang still closed her eyes and didn't wake up, but when she was touched, her mouth immediately pouted and tilted to the side where it was touched, revealing the red tip of her tongue It's constantly moving.

Responding so fast?Mu Qingtong switched sides and poked a few more times.

Liangliang immediately changed the direction of pouting, and turned to the other side, thinking very persistently that the things poked at him were for food.

Mu Qingtong: "!!!"

Mu Qingtong was about to be petrified by his son, and he poked him several times in a row. Even though Liangliang didn't open his eyes, he cooperated with Mu Qingtong every time, and poked his mouth at the place he poked.

"Liangliang, Liangliang?" Mu Qingtong tentatively called his name.

But Liangliang didn't give him any response, and still fell asleep with his eyes closed.

"Liangliang?" Mu Qingtong raised her voice a little this time.

Liangliang still ignored him.

Mu Qingtong: "..."

At this time the nurse just came in and said to Mu Qingtong: "He still can't hear the voice, it's no use calling him."

"Ah?" Mu Qingtong was a little surprised, and said in a daze, "Is that so..."

"You can hug him more, newborns like to have physical contact with adults, and he can distinguish the smell on your body." The nurse smiled, "The more you get in touch with him, the more he will like you."

"Really?" Mu Qingtong rolled down his bright and thick sleeves, revealing his fleshy miniature fist. The little fingers were tightly clenched into a ball and there was a deep wrinkle on his wrist. , the small arms are not as thick as Mu Qingtong's fingers.

Mu Qingtong gently opened his fingers, Liangliang spread out his palm obediently, and put his hand on Mu Qingtong's fingers.

His fingers were not long enough to fully hold Mu Qingtong's index finger. Mu Qingtong poked Liangliang's soft palm with his fingertips, but Liangliang didn't respond.

After poking him for a while, Mu Qingtong withdrew his finger, and found that the bright palm was still spread out, holding it motionless in the air, exactly the same posture as before.

Mu Qingtong: "..."

Mu Qingtong stretched out his hand and clenched his son's palms together again into a fist. His bright hands were as soft as if they had no bones, allowing Mu Qingtong to do whatever he wanted.

Mu Qingtong: "!!!"

Son or something, it was so much fun...

While hugging his son, Mu Qingtong took dozens of photos of him with the communicator, and recorded a small video of him pouting, and then saved it in his mailbox.

Yar City, apartment.

"Rabbit, there is a new email alert." Damian heard the notification sound from the system.

"Huh?" Schwartz slept too late yesterday, so he didn't get up on time today. After being called out by Damian, he rubbed his eyes and sat up, moved the computer in front of him, and checked his mail.

then.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

Damian was taken aback, and quickly asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's Liangliang!" Schwartz pointed at the computer screen in surprise, and hooked Damian, "Come and see!"

Damian leaned over to lean against Schwartz. The video of Liangliang just opening his eyes was playing on the screen. His eyes were still a little dull, but they were black and clear, and looked very beautiful. After he blinked a few times, his head drooped again. She fell down and fell asleep leaning against Mu Qingtong's chest.

Schwartz played the passage on repeat several times, covering his mouth, reluctant to turn off the player.

"It seems to look better than yesterday." Damian said, "But the eyes are still a little swollen, what do you think?"

"Of course he is good-looking." Schwartz took it for granted, "You see he looks good, he looks like the boss... I will replay it for you again, you can see the part where he opened and opened his eyes... Oh, I will show you Find, find photos of the boss when he was young, you Bibi..."

royal palace.

Jiang Yao has calmed down, frowning, sitting at the desk expressionlessly, checking the photos and videos Schwartz forwarded to him.

Like Schwartz, he played the short video over and over again, but he didn't have the palpable excitement of Schwartz at all. Instead, his face darkened the more he watched.

This little light bulb doesn't look like Mu Qingtong at all.

The whole body is red, the skin is only slightly smoother than yesterday, it still looks wrinkled, the eyes are still a little swollen, the eyebrows are invisible, but it is like a little child...

Jiang Yao looked disgusted, feeling annoyed to death.

hospital.

Mu Qingtong got out of bed with her son in her arms, and stood by the window to breathe fresh air. The air conditioner in the room was fully turned on, and Liangliang had been sound asleep.

At first, there was only Mu Qingtong in the two-person ward, but another laborer came in the next afternoon, who seemed to be several years older than Mu Qingtong.

It was a red-haired man, slightly taller than Mu Qingtong. Mu Qingtong heard his family call him Harris.

After Harris moved in, the ward suddenly became lively. Various people ran up and down for him, and many people came to see the baby.Because they are all xy, the babies born are very small and more fragile than ordinary newborns.

Harris did not fall into a coma like Mu Qingtong, and remained awake all the time, but was weak all over.

Mu Qingtong smiled at him, Harris looked extremely tired, just nodded slightly, unable to say a word.

"Hello." The man who had been with Harris greeted Mu Qingtong and introduced himself, "Rex."

"Hello, my name is Mu Qingtong." Mu Qingtong said, and then he carried his son to the bed and lay down.

"Are you alone here?" Rex asked.

"Yeah." Mu Qingtong avoided his slightly concerned gaze, looked down at Liangliang who was still sleeping on his chest, and continued after a while, "His other father participated in the battle in the central region a few months ago, Now……"

"..."

Mu Qingtong didn't continue talking, there was a strange silence in the ward, and Rex said: "I'm sorry..."

"It's okay." Mu Qingtong said, "I love his other father very much, this kid looks very similar to him."

"Did you name him yet?" Rex asked.

"My nickname is Liangliang, but I haven't decided on my first name yet, so I'm not in a hurry." Mu Qingtong said, poking his son's soft face again, "You're not in a hurry, right, Liangliang?"

"Kids sleep like this all the time?" Rex glanced at his own child, then at Mu Qingtong's.

"Well, I haven't woken up often, it's quite fun." Mu Qingtong said with a smile, "I can't wake up no matter how loud I was. I just fed him two milliliters of milk and fell asleep immediately. I have to shake him up and feed him again later. .”

"Is it a boy?" Rex asked.

"Well, the chromosomes are xy, what about yours?"

"It's a girl." Rex wiped the sweat from Harris' forehead with a towel, and said softly.

"That's great." Mu Qingtong said sincerely.

Rex remembered that Mu Qingtong was alone, and when they talked later, he learned that Mu Qingtong's mother was still in the hospital for treatment. He immediately sympathized with his experience and took good care of him for the next two days.

Harris is also very talkative, and has been chatting with Mu Qingtong since he recovered.

Out of professional habits, Mu Qingtong explained the occupations of Rex and Harris in a few words. The former is a middle-level employee of the company, and the latter is a teacher. The two formed a very ordinary but warm family.

The family members on both sides are very kind, especially Rex's mother. Since she has no job, she is busy with Harris almost every step of the way.

Mu Qingtong did not deny that he was a little envious of Harris, but seeing Liangliang sleeping soundly, he felt that all his efforts were worthwhile.

I don't know what the future holds for him and Jiang Yao...

Mu Qingtong interrupted her thoughts and forced herself not to think about those things.

The bright and soft face was always pressed against his chest, and when she felt a little hungry, she would unconsciously suck his skin with her small mouth, which made Mu Qingtong itchy, so she had to feed him some baby milk powder with a small bottle.

Jiang Yao should have received Liangliang's photo by now, did he name the kid?

Mu Qingtong fiddled with her bright little fingers, and her thoughts drifted to another place. What kind of measures would Jiang Yao take against him?

Liangliang suddenly opened his eyes, and yawned again, his small nostrils were suddenly stretched, and then he smacked his mouth a few times, looking sleepily at Mu Qingtong's chin.

Mu Qingtong: "..."

"Liangliang?" Mu Qingtong lowered his head and rubbed his face, "I'm Dad, can you see me?"

Liangliang made a swallowing motion.

Mu Qingtong half sat on the bed, curled up her knees, put Liangliang on it, then took his little hand and shook it a few times: "Liangliang?"

Liangliang's lips were slightly opened, and the tip of her tongue was put on it.

Mu Qingtong supported him with one hand, and flicked his lower lip with the other hand.

Liangliang suddenly pursed her mouth, her eyebrows and eyes were wrinkled together, turning into a frowning expression.

Mu Qingtong laughed, put him in his arms again, and patted his back lightly: "I'm just kidding you... Daddy feed you milk powder, okay?"

"Your son is so cute." Harris said.

"The same goes for your children." Mu Qingtong put the bottle in front of Liangliang, and when Liangliang smelled the milk, she immediately pursed her lips to look for food. Qingtong quickly said, "Slow down, slow down, it's all yours, don't worry, drink slowly..."

"He has a big appetite."

"Yeah." Mu Qingtong nodded, "Nurses said he was very good at eating, and when he was born, he was bigger than the average child, with a weight of 1300g."

"My daughter is 1170g, much younger than your son." Harris said, then he sighed and said, "Actually, I'm a little worried."

Afraid that Liangliang would drink too much and choke, Mu Qingtong moved the bottle out a little, and said, "What are you worried about?"

"The education of boys and girls is different. I am a little worried that I can't teach her well..." Harris expressed a worried expression, "Rex and I are both men after all, and we may not be able to consider many aspects. I am so careful, I am also worried that when she grows up, she will have a sense of distance from the two of us, and she will not be willing to communicate with us..."

"But aren't you a teacher?"

"Yes, I am a middle school teacher." Harris said, "A large part of a child's education depends on the family, and the school can only play a supporting role. A child's character formation, his values, and his outlook on life are basically determined by the family. Parents... I'm just worried that I'm not going to do well."

"You are fine." Mu Qingtong comforted him, "Your daughter will grow up happily."

"Thank you..." Harris said politely, and then asked Mu Qingtong, "What do you plan to do in the future?"

"Me?" Just as Mu Qingtong was thinking, Liangliang had already drank all the milk powder he had prepared. Mu Qingtong quickly wiped the corners of his mouth with a tissue, and patted his back to coax him to rest.

"The government relief fund is quite high, and it can last for a while." Mu Qingtong said, "My mother's hospitalization expenses can be reduced by 70%, and there is also the money left by my husband, so I still have a lot of money at the moment. "

"No, I mean... Are you going to live like this alone?"

Mu Qingtong fell silent.

"You're only 19 and my oldest student is around your age. It's too stressful for you to raise the child by yourself, and it's not good for him to grow up in a single-parent family."

"Let's talk about it..." Mu Qingtong said, "I haven't separated from his father for a long time, so I don't have any thoughts about it for the time being. Anyway, he is still young, so it won't be too late to think about this issue in a few years."

Harris sighed and said, "It's better to decide before he has a clear memory."

"Well, thank you."

Jiang Yao, who was "sacrificed" inexplicably, sneezed in the palace, rubbed his nose in doubt, and continued to work.

The two were talking when Liangliang suddenly burst into tears.

At a loss, Mu Qingtong pressed the call button and asked, "What's the matter, what's the matter?"

The nurse rushed over after hearing the sound, picked up Liangliang and examined her for a while.

A pool of dark green poop on the diaper.

Mu Qingtong: "..."

Mu Qingtong said without a word: "You pull it right after eating, you digest it fast enough."

Harris covered his mouth and smirked.

Three days later, Mu Qingtong recovered well, but his face was paler and his belly was much smaller, so he was discharged from the hospital.

Including the reduced expenses, Mu Qingtong only spent a little over a thousand for this hospitalization, and he still has more than 5000 yuan in his hand.Some clothes and food for infants and young children have been purchased before, and he also paid the rent for half a year in one lump sum, so he can last for more than two months.

When he was discharged from the hospital, he and the Harris couple left contact information with each other. Harris said that if you need help, just call him.

Mu Qingtong nodded his thanks.

Taking care of the children did not make Mu Qingtong feel too tired. Generally speaking, Liangliang is very obedient, and rarely cries in the middle of the night to make Mu Qingtong rest.It's just that he has a huge appetite and keeps growing in size, catching up with babies of the same age all the way, and his weight gain far exceeds the average level.

Mu Qingtong suspected that Jiang Yao's genes were causing the trouble, and he didn't know what this kid would look like in the future.

He takes a lot of photos and videos of Liangliang every day, and then saves them all in the draft box of the mailbox. Schwartz will receive a reminder when he refreshes, and then download the attachments.

In this way, no trace will be left, and even Schwartz cannot recover the deleted data.

And Schwartz will encrypt the file immediately and send it to Jiang Yao for unified storage.

Mu Qingtong bought a pushable crib, but never put Liangliang in it to sleep at night.

According to the doctor, the baby's sense of smell is relatively sensitive, and he can distinguish the smell of people who are often with him. Sleeping with him more often can promote feelings.

But Liangliang likes Mu Qingtong holding him all the time, sticking her small face to his chest, and putting a small hand on it, as long as she does this, she can fall asleep in a short while.So every night when Mu Qingtong wrapped Liangliang tightly and put it next to him, the boy seemed to know that he was sleeping on the bed, and immediately burst into tears, making Mu Qingtong's brain ache from the noise.

Mu Qingtong had no choice but to hug him every night before going to bed, pat his back to coax him for a while, and only put him down when he fell asleep.

The degree of stickiness is the same as that of Jiang Yao.

Liangliang's red skin gradually became fairer after a few days, and the wrinkled appearance was almost invisible, and it took a little longer to wake up.

Mu Qingtong specially bought a bell and hung it on the crib, and patted it when he was free. Although Liangliang's reaction to the outside world was still a bit sluggish, after a week, he was able to lie down and tilt his head slowly to the sound of the bell.

Liangliang doesn't know anything except kicking his little arms and legs. In order to move his muscles, Mu Qingtong massages him every day, gently pinching his fleshy limbs from top to bottom with two fingers.

Liangliang likes Mu Qingtong's caress very much, every time he closes his eyes and bends into a crescent shape, with the corners of his mouth raised, his mouth grows big, and he laughs silently.At this time, Mu Qingtong would gently caress his chubby belly and chest, and then Liangliang kicked happily again.

Due to the wrong estimation of Liangliang's food intake, Mu Qingtong's previous stockpile of milk powder soon bottomed out, and he had to take Liangliang to the street to buy.

Liangliang was still sleeping when he was discharged from the hospital, and kept his eyes closed on the way, but this time when Mu Qingtong took him out, it was the first time he went to the outside world.

Even though he couldn't see the outside world clearly, he seemed to have realized that he had arrived in a space much larger than his home, so he was very excited. His little hands kept beating Mu Qingtong's shoulders, and he didn't sleep for a long time.Mu Qingtong had no choice but to let him make trouble.

In Mu Qingtong's wallet, there was a black and white photo of Jiang Yao when he was a child. After Liangliang's facial features grew a little, he compared the faces of the two when they were young.

Suddenly, he remembered the sentence Jiang Yao made fun of him when he was studying Herman's files at school last year.

At that time, he said that the little prince was very cute, and Jiang Yao said that if he really liked it so much, he would give birth to one himself.

And now he actually gave birth to a baby who looks almost exactly like the picture.

Mu Qingtong still felt that all this happened was a bit unreal, as unbelievable as a dream.

In the blink of an eye, he has been in this world for two years. The year before, he was still in endless anxiety and gradually became desperate. In the year after, he got married and had children like a rocket... He and Jiang Yao are also married Bar.

A year ago, he never expected that things would develop like this. In this country with no sense of belonging, he had his own friends, found his lifelong destination, solved a series of puzzles, and willingly Allegiance to the monarch of this country.

Things are unpredictable.Mu Qingtong suddenly thought of this sentence.

"Come on, Liangliang, Dad hug..." Mu Qingtong controlled her speech very slowly, and said to Liangliang very patiently.

Liangliang waved his arms and smiled very happily. Mu Qingtong hugged him, Liangliang immediately wrapped his arms around his neck, touched his skin with his gums, and stretched out his small tongue to lick.

Mu Qingtong touched the back of his head, hugged him and patted him gently, humming a little tune to him.

He hugged Liangliang and walked slowly to the window, and kissed his soft little face.

Children have a natural love for music, Mu Qingtong will become sleepy when he hums brightly, he will slam his mouth a few times, put his little hand on Mu Qingtong's collarbone, lean on his shoulder and fall asleep quickly, and the corners of his mouth will be very tight Naturally up.

Members of the guard hid in the dark and took these pictures with a telephoto lens, and almost broadcast them live to Jiang Yao.

Jiang Yao would hide in his bedroom and open these video files one by one after finishing his work every day, watching them over and over again tirelessly.

Jiang Yao stared at Liangliang who was sleeping peacefully on the screen, and suddenly wanted to slap him twice.

When Mu Qingtong hugged Liangliang and almost didn't let it go, Jiang Yao's face darkened, and he didn't deny that he was jealous of this kid at all. He and Mu Qingtong had known each other for so long, and he had never seen Mu Qingtong be so gentle and careful. to him.

this kid...

I'm so sick of this little light bulb.
