I am the king of hard rice

Marriage is not the end of love, but the beginning of love.

Trinity has loved and killed each other for many years, and their love and hatred have almost run through each other's college youth.

Going through time, going through trials, sharpening you, shaping me, changing her, and now reaching the final step is a natural thing.

However, ever since Li Peifeng and Wu Xu's second daughter went through the marriage procedures in foreign countries and returned to China, he felt keenly that this matter had more or less affected his relationship with the girls.

The most intuitive thing is that Wu Wenyue and Xu Maning are more relaxed and confident when facing the other two.

In the past, whenever Zhao Qingge and Huang Tianxuan made any changes, they would be so jealous and angry with Li Peifeng, but now they are more magnanimous and don't care too much about it.This has eased the relationship between the four girls a lot, and it can even be said to be harmonious.

This made Li Peifeng gratified and happy, but he didn't enjoy the blessing of being equal to others, and instead worked harder in the new year.

On the one hand, it is busy at work.Li Peifeng has been working tirelessly. After one year of creation of "Sword and Law", the deposit of the first part is about to end. Although there are still hundreds of thousands of manuscripts that have not been updated and released, in order to be able to write a book that clearly explains all the foreshadowings and To make readers look forward to the ending of the second part of "Sword and Law", Li Peifeng took great pains to lengthen the time of coding every day and increase his creative energy.

Secondly, the development of animation and mobile games is in a critical period. He often goes to the company to see the progress of the project. The publication of the physical book "Sword and Law" is also on the agenda. Li Peifeng is contacting several publishing houses to negotiate contracts.

In addition to these tedious tasks, Li Peifeng feels that the burden of life has also increased, and his emotional state has changed from the previous treacherous, two-day Shura field to trivial bickering and trivial daily life.

Although there are not as many dramatic conflicts as before, it is also another test.

How to keep a balance among several women and live a happy and interesting life is a question that Li Peifeng thinks about every day.

On the other hand, Zhao Qingge added a little more difficulty to this question. She quickly noticed the strangeness from the unusual attitude of the two daughters Wu and Xu, and thus knew the fact that the three of them were secretly obtaining certificates abroad. Therefore, her attitude towards Mr. Li There has also been a shift.

He did not rush back to his mother's house to sue in a fit of anger, but his emotions changed even more erratically. As long as he felt a little unwell, he would put on a face and start to turn over old scores and find fault with Li Peifeng.

However, Zhao Qingge, an older pregnant woman, often felt unwell. Her reaction during pregnancy was greater than that of Huang Tianxuan, and she showed different symptoms every day.

Lack of energy on Monday, dizziness on Tuesday, nausea on Wednesday, depression on Thursday, abdominal cramps on Friday...

Zhao Qingge, the pregnant woman, was uncomfortable, and Li Peifeng, the one who took care of the pregnant woman, was also affected.

Compared with this, what is even more tragic is...he has to serve two pregnant women at the same time!
Zhao Qingge and Huang Tianxuan, one in the south and the other in the north, both need his care. Even though each has a nanny and confinement wife, they still need the company of their husbands. Therefore, Li Peifeng, who is in the capital, always travels to Hangzhou thousands of miles away. city ​​run.

This is the price of being a father. Although Li Peifeng was tired, he didn't feel hard, and this kind of running around only lasted for less than two months, and he was released because the baby in Huang Tianxuan's stomach was born as scheduled up!
In the early morning of March 72th, Hangzhou, Zhejiang University Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital's integrated obstetrics ward, with an area of ​​[-] square meters, has a separate bathroom and a living room, two medical beds, color TV refrigerators and other furniture. It is not so much a ward. More like a double room in a hotel.

"My daughter has a really good appetite. She just ate two big bowls, and she hasn't stopped chopsticks yet."

"It's because of Xiaofeng's great cooking skills. If I wasn't full, I would have eaten two more bites."

"It's better to eat more, to have physical strength, and to have strength during childbirth."

Huang Jianzhong and Ji Na came, as did Li Qiyuan and Yu Huizhi. The two families sat on the sofa in the living room, chatting casually, looking at the clock on the wall, or at the little girl on the hospital bed. couple.

Huang Tianxuan, who was wearing loose white maternity clothes, was eating breakfast. The foldable dining table on the bed was full of five lunch boxes. There were vegetables, meat, seafood, and desserts. They were all made by Li Peifeng himself. Huang Tianxuan was very satisfied with the food. The enjoyment, physical pain and discomfort have all been reduced a lot.

"This hot and sour chicken feet and sweet-scented osmanthus double skin milk are the best."

"Then I'll make it for you tomorrow?"

Huang Tianxuan thought for a while: "There are so many dishes left, and they can be eaten in the refrigerator... But the staple food needs to be changed. Let's make fresh meat mooncakes. I saw it on Douyin and I kind of want to eat it."

Li Peifeng said hello again and again, seeing that Huang Tianxuan was full, he cleared the dining table and called the doctor to check the pregnant woman's current physical condition.

As early as a month ago, Huang Tianxuan was admitted to the hospital. The medical connections and financial resources of the Huang family allowed her to enjoy the care of the top obstetric team.

Before delivery, nurses will give birth guidance every day, such as using yoga and exercise to adjust the abnormal fetal position.The customized meals for pregnant women are delicious, healthy and nutritious, and regular check-ups ensure that the body is in good health.

During childbirth, there is no need to change rooms. Women with normal delivery can give birth in the room. There are midwives, doctors, and "home service" for painless delivery. The husband can also choose to accompany her.

With such good care, Huang Tianxuan's physical condition is very good. Although she has gained weight, she has maintained a good figure. The indicators of both mother and child are also in good health. The baby's position in the stomach is very correct. The doctor recommends natural delivery. Huang Tianxuan He kindly agreed.

Although compared with caesarean section, natural delivery takes longer and is more painful, but it is more beneficial for the mother not to use a knife, and the body recovers faster after delivery, and there is no postoperative symptom.

And now, although Huang Tianxuan can eat like a normal person, she is actually in a state of childbirth.

It is a long and arduous process to give birth naturally. For pregnant women who give birth for the first time, it generally takes about ten to twenty hours. During this period, it is divided into three stages of labor.

The first stage of labor is the period when the pregnant woman warms up and slowly opens the door. This stage of labor takes the longest and takes ten to twelve hours. The second stage of labor is the stage when the baby comes out of the "door". to two hours; the third stage of labor is the delivery of the placenta, which takes the shortest time and will not exceed 10 minutes.

Right now, Huang Tianxuan is in the early and middle stages of the first stage of labor.Since her water broke at [-] o'clock in the morning, her body showed symptoms of childbirth. The doctor issued a notice to prepare for a natural delivery. Three hours have passed, and Huang Tianxuan's condition is not bad.

But after having breakfast, she went to the bathroom. As soon as it was 08:30, Huang Tianxuan immediately became sluggish, her face turned pale, and she lay on the bed with her eyes half-open, not even bothering to speak.

"It's starting to hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt, it's very refreshing."

Huang Tianxuan frowned tightly, as if she was still angry, she glanced at the mobile phone that was beeping from WeChat, and put it on the bedside without replying to the message.

Ji Na felt sorry for her daughter, and while stroking Huang Tianxuan's forehead, she persuaded: "Why don't you let the doctor give you a painless injection in a while, this is just the beginning, and it will take at least half a day to finish, you are so stubborn It's a shame."

"Do not hit."

Huang Tianxuan shook her head slightly, closed her eyes and held Li Peifeng's hand, and said softly, "Connect with them, Wenyue and Manning both want to know what it's like to have a baby."

After Wu Xu and Li Peifeng received their marriage certificate, they inevitably took the matter of having a baby into their hearts, even though they said to Li Peifeng, "I won't have children with you" and "children are the most annoying". It's kind of like words, but in fact they also know in their hearts that this is probably a life experience that they can't avoid.

Even though Wu Wenyue and Xu Maning couldn't come to Hangzhou to visit Huang Tianxuan in person due to many reasons, they both wanted to know how the other party felt when giving birth. Even Zhao Qingge, who had just turned three months pregnant, wanted to know in advance what the childbirth would be like. How painful, so that I can prepare myself for the not-too-distant future.

Therefore, after Huang Tianxuan made the request, Li Peifeng immediately started the multi-person chat mode, which can not only solve their doubts, but also accompany pregnant women. The focus is on warmth and harmony!
"Qi Yuan, if you want to say that, then I can relax..."

In reality, the two families in the ward are also chatting, mainly about the child's upbringing, education, growth environment and other topics.Huang Jianzhong also made some tactful temptations to Li Qiyuan and his wife about the fact that the child's surname was not Li but Huang.

As early as two months ago, Huang's father and Huang's mother had learned the gender of the baby in their daughter's womb through color Doppler ultrasound. This made the family very excited, because it was agreed before that the first boy Huang Tianxuan gave birth to will be named Huang .

Although Huang Tianxuan's elder brother was married and had children, all of them gave birth to girls. If Huang Tianxuan's upcoming son changed his surname, he would be Huang Jianzhong's first eldest grandson.

But correspondingly, if he has one more, the Li family will have one less. No old man is willing to accept his grandson to change his surname for no reason. How to take care of his in-laws' emotions has become the top priority in Huang Jian's center.

In fact, Lao Huang was thinking too much, Li Qiyuan didn't care about it at all, because he didn't lack a grandson at all, and his genuine daughter-in-law Zhao Qingge seemed to have one in her stomach, but although there was only one son, it was really superfluous.

"Old Huang, just rest assured that as long as the two of them have discussed it, we have no objection whether the child takes the father's or mother's surname. Even Li Peifeng will change your surname to Huang one day, and I will support it with both hands!"

Li Qiyuan looked sincere, and he really wished that Li Peifeng, a rebellious son, would change his surname to Huang, and forget Huang Jianzhong as his father, then he would be completely relieved...

Huang Jianzhong was dumbfounded, and thought that the other party had a grudge against him, so he said with a dry smile, "The in-laws are really funny." Then he racked his brains to think of ways to make up for the Li family to satisfy the other party.

The two families each felt guilty and chatted harmoniously, but they both forgot that there was a pregnant woman who was about to give birth on the bed.

It was also because Huang Tianxuan didn't react too much, and the natural delivery took a long time, they couldn't help much, and being nervous was useless.

It wasn't until the midwife entered the ward and looked at the instruments for detecting fetal heart rate and uterine contractions that Fang reminded: "Dong Huang, it's best to leave only one family member with you, and everyone else should wait outside. Although the room is big, , but too many people are inconvenient.”

"well."

"Yes, we must give Tianxuan a quiet environment."

Suddenly, Huang Jianzhong glanced at his daughter with closed eyes and frowning, patted her hand with concern, hesitated for half a second, and said in a low voice: "Girl, you are safe and sound, I agreed to everything you said before." ,OK?"

Huang Tianxuan slightly opened her eyes and forced a smile: "Then wait until your grandson is born."

"well."

Huang Jianzhong patted his daughter's hand again, and walked out of the delivery room with his wife and Li Qiyuan.

"Xuanxuan, call me if you need, mom is always here."

Before Ji Na left, Huang Tianxuan waved her hand feebly, "I know."

After everyone left, the midwife conducted an internal inspection, and then comforted her: "Three fingers were opened, the progress is quite fast, and the baby will be born around three o'clock in the afternoon... Tianxuan, how is your pain now? What level? If you feel that you can’t persist until then, I suggest you play painless now.”

"Level four? It's okay."

Huang Tianxuan took a deep breath, and then waved her hand to express that she didn't need it: "Being painless may prolong the production time, forget it."

Wu Wenyue: "What is painless?"

Xu Maning: "Tranquilizer?"

The so-called painless is a small dose of narcotic analgesics. The advantage after taking it is that the pain is doubled and there are no side effects. Extend it a little bit.

Strictly speaking, this is actually not a shortcoming. It is more comfortable to be beaten with fists for a day than to be beaten with a knife for half a day.

Li Peifeng felt sorry for his wife, but he also decided to follow her wishes: "Then don't fight. Every pain is a successful transformation. Only those who can endure the pain of Nirvana are worthy of the beauty of rebirth. My wife is born proud and will never give up easily. Even if the world collapses, even if it hurts to the bone, we can resist it."

It wasn't that Li Peifeng was simply making sarcastic remarks. He was shaking his wits just to make Huang Tianxuan laugh and distract her. It turned out to be very useful. Scold him in my heart...

"Who is resisting? I am resisting, and you will give me pain too! Let me see if you can hold it?"

Huang Tianxuan used all her strength to pinch Li mercilessly.

The midwife said cheerfully, "Little Li, don't say a few words. If you have this time, why don't you take her with a yoga ball to bounce around? I taught you before, and it can also speed up the delivery."

"Okay, wife... Shall I help you get off the ground?"

"bring it on."

The midwife reminded: "Tianxuan, remember to use the Lamaze breathing method, the pain can be relieved a lot."

"Ah."

Under the leadership of the midwife, Li Peifeng assisted Huang Tianxuan in prenatal warm-up exercises.

After tossing and tossing like this for more than half an hour, Huang Tianxuan had no strength and lay back on the bed again, her back was sore and her legs were tired, and the discomfort and pain in her body increased by half, and then a younger midwife came in, the two were Huang Tianxuan After a long massage, I said some words of encouragement before leaving the delivery room.

When it was noon, Huang Tianxuan's condition deteriorated a lot, and she had no appetite. She only ate some snacks and drinks for lunch, then curled up on the bed and sweated uncomfortably.

Unlike movies and TV dramas where a child is born, the mother is crying in pain, screaming hoarsely, Huang Tianxuan is very quiet, her brows are locked and she is dozing off, accompanied by rapid breathing, she has no strength to speak, but her heart activities are frequent and intense .

"Who in the family understands? It hurts, it hurts too much, it hurts ten thousand times more than my aunt, like a large group of fat people jumping over your stomach, accompanied by the worst constipation in this life... Suffocation and pain The pain went on and on, and each attack was longer than the last."

"It hurts so much that I don't have the energy to speak or cry. I can ignore everything around me, leaving only despair!"

The three Zhao Wuxu and Xu have been 'listening' to similar feelings all morning. From the initial sympathy, anxiety, and fear, they are now somewhat accustomed to it.

Wu Wenyue: "I don't have the energy to speak? I can't even cry? This is what it's like to have a baby, but I always feel that this experience is a bit similar to that..."

Xu Maning: "Ah? What obscene things are you thinking about? They are having a baby, be serious!"

Wu Wenyue: "Hehe, of course having a child must be serious, but making a child is not indecent either."

Zhao Qingge: "Stop. Tianxuan, listen to me, if you can't hold on, just cut it off, there's no need to hold back."

Both are pregnant women, even if there were deep conflicts before, at this time Lao Zhao is the one who can empathize with Huang Tianxuan the most.

Huang Tianxuan: "I can, chatting with you can distract me so that I can persevere. I want to face it squarely, hurt me to death, hurt me to death..."

As time passed, Huang Tianxuan's expression gradually became trance-like, with black screens and snowflakes flashing in her eyes, accompanied by various images and sounds of other people in her heart, she fell asleep for a while.

Li Peifeng accompanied her all the way, even though she was anxious, she tried her best to be calm, massaged her, wiped her sweat, and called the midwife for examination and evaluation every hour...

At [-]:[-] in the afternoon, after another internal examination, the midwife nodded slightly: "Soon...Tianxuan, are you still asleep? Get up and half lie on the bed, do you still have the strength?"

"……Have."

Huang Tianxuan's voice was weak, but her eyes were extremely firm. She stood up and lay half down on the bed, holding on to the handles.Then, under Li Peifeng's feeding, he barely drank some brown sugar water, ate a few mouthfuls of bananas to replenish his strength, and at the same time listened to the midwife's last doctor's order.

What posture, how to breathe, how to exert force... Huang Tianxuan had memorized these things by heart a few months ago. At this moment, she was not in the mood to listen to the midwife repeat them seriously. She just wandered away with confused eyes.

"Xuan? Wife? Sister? Your Lady Queen?"

Li Peifeng changed several names one after another, but failed to call Huang Tianxuan back to his soul. He couldn't help asking the midwife impatiently: "It seems that the pain has caused my brain to shut down, elder sister, look..."

"Take this and take two sips!"

The midwife handed Huang Tianxuan a breathing mask, and the latter took the mask subconsciously inhaling in a daze.

"Xiao Li, watch her drink, don't let her suck too much at once."

"clear."

The mixed gas of nitric oxide and oxygen is an inhaled analgesic. If the pain of giving birth is tenth, then it can relieve two to two or three pains during childbirth, making people confused or excited.Although the overall effect is far less than that of injection anesthesia, it has a quick effect, convenient method and fewer side effects.

However, this small side effect means that it is used for medical purposes in an appropriate amount. Once abused, it will become addictive, and the damage to the body is as great as that of poison.

Huang Tianxuan took two puffs, and in less than half a minute, her condition obviously improved. She consciously took off her mask, opened her mouth, and said vaguely, "Why should I have a baby?"

Did you suck too much?

Li Peifeng frowned slightly, but asked patiently, "Why?"

Huang Tianxuan looked at the sky and murmured: "At first I thought it was because of my age, family, parents, and Hezhi's inheritance... But after my wish was fulfilled, I suddenly realized that those things might not be the root cause. The most important prerequisite for me to have a child is that I have It proves that life is happy, and being with you is happy, and I love you very, very much."

Li Peifeng was so moved that he tightly held Huang Tianxuan's hand to comfort him, and was about to say something, but saw that the other person frowned and put on the breathing mask again.

"It hurts, it's coming again!"

……

"How is my sister? Has she been born?"

"It's about this time, it should be almost there."

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Huang Tianxuan's eldest brother also arrived outside the delivery room and asked everyone about the current situation. At the moment, the four parents were all worried and distressed.

"It's been close to ten hours, isn't it?"

"From the time the water broke to now... yes, but this time is not too long. You gave birth for fourteen hours the first time. Don't worry."

Although Huang Jianzhong was still calm and comforted his wife, he was actually very anxious. After waiting for more than half a day, he could no longer hold back his emotions, got up and paced back and forth in the corridor.During the period, the subordinates called many times to report on their work, and Lao Huang just simply explained a few words and then quickly hung up.

At this time, everyone present was not thinking about anything else, their hearts were all hanging high, and they only hoped that the big and small in the delivery room would be safe and sound.

"click~"

The door opened suddenly, attracting everyone's attention. Li Qiyuan and Yu Huizhi stood up suddenly, and the Huang family also surrounded them.

"Doctor, what's the matter?"

Looking forward to the eyes, asking questions in a hurry, the midwife who came out of the door was also used to this kind of situation, and smiled to comfort her.

"Everyone, please rest assured. Because of the meticulous care during pregnancy, the mother's physical condition is very good, and the current progress is going smoothly. I suggest that you take a little rest and see the baby born soon."

The truth is this, but concern is chaotic, even if the midwife will come out every one or two hours to report the progress to them, and promise again and again that there will be no accidents, but as long as the child is not born, their hearts cannot be completely let go .

Everyone waited in fear for another hour, and the time came to four o'clock in the afternoon, and the parents of both sides were a little sleepy and tired.

Especially Comrade Yu Huizhi, because she just gave birth to her second child and her body has not yet fully recovered, she is usually lethargic. Now, even though she is still worried after a long day, her body leans on the chair uncontrollably and wants to doze off.

But as soon as she stepped into the half-asleep and half-awake state, she heard a faint cry of a baby coming from the delivery room.

"husband?"

Yu Huizhi's spirit was shaken, her drowsiness subsided immediately, and she looked at Li Qiyuan in surprise: "Did I hear..."

"Yes."

Li Qiyuan smiled with relief: "I heard that too!"

In the delivery room, two midwives were busy in an orderly manner. One was treating the wound of the pregnant woman, and the other was cleaning the mucus on the baby. It didn’t take long for both of them to be completed at the same time. After the baby was weighed, the midwife called Li Peifeng to help the baby wear clothes.

"This is my son? Why is he still crying?"

Li Peifeng was a little dazed throughout the whole process. Under such circumstances, the baby put on a monk's robe, and the midwife delivered it to Huang Tianxuan.

"It weighs seven and a half catties, Tianxuan, do you want to hug her?"

"Of course! Finally..."

Huang Tianxuan relaxed from exhaustion, her bulging stomach half an hour ago had miraculously flattened, and those physical pains had become memories, now, she was going to welcome the continuation of her life!
And as the midwife opened the door, this link will be witnessed by the two families.

"Tianxuan, what's the matter?"

"Hey, this is...ha, it's round."

"Girl, you've worked hard!"

Ji Na's eyes stayed on the baby's body for a moment, then she held her daughter's hand and tears filled her eyes: "I waited outside...it was more difficult than when I gave birth myself."

"Don't worry, it's not over yet, let me hug the baby first."

Although Huang Tianxuan's face was pale, there was no more pain in her expression, she could only relax. She took the small, crying baby from the midwife.

Big head, round belly, light red skin all over, wrinkled, facial features not opened, eyes still squinting, it's really not good-looking, but Huang Tianxuan held him in her arms, feeling exhausted all over And the pain has been relieved a lot, and I have a smile on my face, very happy.

It may be a coincidence, since the baby was hugged by the mother, the crying stopped immediately. The people present were amazed, and the other girls who were always paying attention to this place thousands of miles away also felt sour.

Wu Wenyue: "The little thing that was just born is ugly, but it seems to be quite obedient."

Xu Maning: "It's not just ugly, it's ugly!"

Huang Tianxuan: "If it's not your cub, it's ugly, but if it's yours, it's handsome?! Shut up!"

Zhao Qingge: "What name do you plan to give him?"

This is a good question, because at the same time, parents in the delivery room also asked similar questions...

"By the way, Xiaofeng, have you and Xuanxuan chosen the baby's name?"

"I took one, a friend helped me take it."

When Huang Jianzhong and Ji Na heard that the name was chosen with the help of a friend, they couldn't help frowning.

Because the two of them made a lot of suggestions for this matter. They both named it themselves and asked their husband to tell their fortunes. In the end, the daughter didn't adopt it, but used a friend's one instead?
"It's fine to get it from a friend, as long as it sounds nice and meaningful...what's the name?"

"Of course there is a moral."

Huang Tianxuan paused for a while, glanced at Li Peifeng, and suddenly smiled narrowly: "It's Huang Zhiyi."

In the current era, the characteristics of post-[-]s parents naming their children are mostly awkward, uncommon, individual and cultural. They often search for words from ancient books such as "Book of Changes" and "Book of Songs" or idol dramas, so they appear. There were a large number of children named Haoran, Yuxuan, Mu Chen, and Chen Xing, and some parents simply gave their children a fake double surname based on the surnames of two people, and four-character names abound.

In such an environment, Huang Zhiyi's name appears extremely simple and down-to-earth...

Huang Jianzhong and Ji Na listened to it at first, and chewed it twice in their hearts, but they didn't resist so much, and were even a little satisfied with the name.

"It seems to be good?"

"Well, catchy, easy to write and remember."

Huang Tianxuan laughed again: "The most important thing is to have a moral, to be one, to be ambitious, to be consistent, to never forget, to be single-minded... The friend who helped me choose this name is a professor of literature. He considered it from many aspects such as the meaning of the word and the intonation. , It took tens of thousands of brain cells to help me get such a nice, easy to remember and meaningful name, Peifeng and I are very fond of it... isn't it, husband?"

In the end, Zhao Qingge was the one who named the baby. Although Huang Tianxuan didn't accept the idea when she first proposed it, Zhao Qingge communicated with Huang Tianxuan again soon after, and offered to help her choose 'Huang Zhiyi'. a name.

The implication in it is naturally inseparable from the 'half-hearted' baby's father, and contains Zhao Qingge's little grievances. Huang Tianxuan was very satisfied when she heard it, and immediately accepted it. After all...she also had grievances against the baby's father. !
But the key point is that the name 'Zhiyi' is good. Leaving aside the insinuation of Li, it can also place the parents' good hopes for their children.

So Li Peifeng did not object, but also agreed: "Zhongyi, I like the name Zhiyi!"

While speaking, Li Peifeng stared intently at the little life that just came into the world, and couldn't help laughing: "In the future, you must be ambitious, and you must be single-minded and persistent in doing things. This is the meaning of your name...Although your father and I can't do it, but You have to work hard!"

More lenient than self-discipline, stricter than others.

Li Peifeng is destined to be a strict father!
"Wow~"

Huang Zhiyi also seemed to feel his father's malice, his crying was clear and high-pitched, a little louder than when he was born...
