Switched Marriage The Coddled Little Wife novel Chapter 655

Chapter 655: Chapter 655: Girl

Ma Suyun felt like her life was being drained away, but she forced herself to ask, with dry lips, "Is my son okay?"

The midwife had long since lost her patience.

In all the years she’d been delivering babies, she’d never seen someone like Ma Suyun who could scream and struggle so much.

She screamed from day into night, and the more she was told to conserve her energy, the louder she screamed.

The baby was clearly not big, yet it just wouldn’t come out.

And when Qin Wen hired her, he even haggled over the price. She’d never heard of bargaining for a delivery.

If conditions hadn’t improved and everyone had started going to hospitals to give birth, leaving her with less work, she never would have taken this job.

In the end, she didn’t earn much more money, but spent twice the effort.

Hearing Ma Suyun’s question, she replied impatiently, "What son? It’s a girl, and she’s fine."

But Ma Suyun didn’t hear the part about her being fine; she insisted on getting up, "What girl? It’s supposed to be a son."

The midwife immediately held the child up for her to see, "Look for yourself, is there anything there?"

Ma Suyun saw the child clearly, felt the world spinning, her eyes rolled back, and she fainted.

Qin Wen, who was outside, heard this too, and rushed in after lifting the curtain.

He stared intently at the child in the midwife’s hands, his eyes bloodshot...

After Mrs. Qin left, all matters fell upon the new parents, Qin Yang and Lin Chuxia.

Lin Chuxia was very confident.

Qi Qi was well-behaved, sleeping and eating all day. If not for crying when wet, hungry, or having an accident, the baby was peaceful. She’d even found a pattern to it over these days.

Qin Yang, however, was not at ease. After breakfast, he left a pot of soup he’d been simmering for Lin Chuxia all morning on the stove, knowing it was almost time for work. He repeatedly reminded her not to touch the diapers and wait for him to clean them together after work, forbidding her from washing them casually herself.

His mother had emphasized before that although it was summer, postpartum women should not touch cold water.

Fortunately, the window air conditioner from the mother-in-law had cooled the room quite a bit; otherwise, he couldn’t guarantee his wife would behave.

Lin Chuxia was almost used to his nagging, "Alright, alright, I know. Don’t worry. If anything happens, I’ll call you, plus, in just a few hours you’ll be back from work."

Qin Yang wanted to say he couldn’t rest easy when he didn’t see the two of them, even for a while.

Just about to leave, he heard a commotion outside and saw Zhuang Jingshu coming in with a bag.

She smiled gently at Qin Yang, "Worried your mom’s departure left you two overwhelmed, so I came early today. Hope I’m not disturbing you?"

Qin Yang wasn’t ungrateful. He’d noticed everything Zhuang Jingshu had done for them recently.

He also knew his wife already accepted this mother.

Yet, there still seemed to be this thin layer of barrier between them that they couldn’t quite break.

"No, I was just about to head to work. You’re just in time; I’m indeed a bit worried about Xiaxia."

Through spending time together recently, Zhuang Jingshu became increasingly satisfied with her son-in-law Qin Yang.

Her daughter, treated unjustly by her adoptive family, was pampered in her husband’s home like a princess, which was her sole comfort.

After Qin Yang left, seeing that the baby was asleep, she talked to Lin Chuxia about the Lin Family.

She hadn’t hidden from Lin Chuxia that she’d gone to Daqing Mountain Village yesterday. She intended to conclude affairs over there, but hadn’t told Lin Chuxia she planned to unilaterally sever ties between Lin Chuxia and the Lin Family.

"Originally, I wanted you to handle this matter yourself, but back then, I couldn’t bear it. In such a circumstance, Guo Cuihua kept trying to soil your reputation. I couldn’t imagine what mean, extreme things she might say face to face..."

Just thinking about it made Zhuang Jingshu’s heart ache.

That’s why she spoke out angrily.

Yet precisely because of that, Zhuang Jingshu deeply understood that her daughter didn’t seem to need her anymore. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮
