Chapter 398 Shen Ze'an
Gu Jiandong had already chosen a name for the child. The notebook was filled with all the names that Gu Jiandong had given to the child. He asked Shen Shuyu to choose one. Shen Shuyu thought every name was good. She couldn't choose one after spending a long time, so Shen Shuyu simply let Gu Jiandong choose.
"Shu Yu, how about naming the baby Shen Ze'an?"
Shen Shuyu nodded, "It sounds good. Our son will be called Shen Ze'an from now on, and his nickname will be Xiaoze."
Shen Chunling read it several times and thought the name sounded nice, "This is a really good name."
"Xiao Ze, let's just call you Xiao Ze from now on, okay? Do you like this name?"
Xiaoze blinked in Shen Shuyu's arms, hummed twice, closed his eyes, and fell asleep.
"Have you sent a telegram to grandpa and grandma and parents?"
"Yes, I have. You should receive the telegram tomorrow."
Shen Shuyu gave birth to a child. She didn't want to stay in the hospital. She wanted to go home to recuperate after giving birth the next day when she was able to get out of bed. "Gu Jiandong, please go through the discharge procedures. I want to go home."
Before being discharged from the hospital, the doctor examined Shen Shuyu and the child and found no problems, so he discharged them.
Shen Chunling came back early and heated up the kang in the room, and Shen Shuyu was wrapped tightly by Gu Jiandong and returned home.
Xiaoze slept soundly in her arms.
"It's still more comfortable to stay at home." Shen Shuyu lay on the kang, feeling relaxed all over.
"Shu Yu, you take a rest. I'll take care of the baby."
Gu Jiandong took over Xiaoze.
Shen Shuyu was tired. She had just given birth to a child and she really didn't have that much energy. After feeding the child and giving him to Gu Jiandong, she drank half a bowl of porridge and went to sleep.
After the child was born, Gu Jiandong took a month's leave from the army to take care of Shen Shuyu during her confinement.
When Shen Chunling found out, she was extremely pleased with Gu Jiandong. He even took time off to take care of his wife during her confinement. You can't find anyone like him like that.
Nowadays, most men, after their wives give birth, happily hold the baby for a while and then get back to work. If there are elders at home to take care of them, the confinement period will be more comfortable.
If there are no elders at home to take care of you, and you have to take care of the baby while recuperating, you will have to get up several times a night, and you won’t be able to sleep well or take care of the baby. It will be really painful.
In fact, with her around, Jiandong could take leave or not, but she took leave and focused on taking care of Shuyu during her confinement. Shuyu would be happier, after all, no woman would be unhappy if her man cared about her.
Ozawa's clothes, quilts, shoes, diapers and other things had already been prepared.
Gu Jiandong made a lot of clothes for his son. Old man Shen, old lady Shen, and Shen Chunling also made several sets for their children. Gu's mother in the northwest also made three or four sets for her child. In total, he has more than a dozen new sets of clothes.
"Second aunt, I will bring back some chickens when I'm born. I'll make chicken soup for Shu Yu in a few days."
"Okay, just change the chickens. You don't need to buy eggs. We have eggs at home. They are enough for Shu Yu and I to eat for two months."
Mrs. Wang knew that Shen Shuyu had returned from giving birth, so she brought five eggs over. "I looked at Shuyu's belly and guessed it was a son. Look, it really is a son. He looks so handsome. He will definitely be popular with girls when he grows up. Have you given him a name?"
"Yes, it's Shen Ze'an, and his nickname is Xiao'an."
Mrs. Wang was quite surprised to hear that the child's last name was Shen. She thought Deputy Captain Gu was a live-in son-in-law and was joking when she heard that he was a live-in son-in-law. She didn't expect it to be true.
"Oh, that's a great name."
Mrs. Wang had something to do at home, so she didn't stay long. She just looked at the child for a while and then left.
Shen Chunling didn't have time to make red eggs, so she picked some vegetables and asked Mrs. Wang to take them back.
Shenjiaba Brigade.
Shen Qiu received the telegram, skipped work, and rode his bicycle home quickly, "Grandma and Grandma, my eldest sister gave birth to a boy."
Her voice was so loud that everyone in the Shen family heard it. Old Man and Old Lady Shen, who were lying on the kang, suddenly got up and ran out, "Xiao Qiu, your eldest sister gave birth?"
"Yes, my eldest sister gave birth. I received a telegram from my brother-in-law. It's a boy. He was named Shen Ze'an."
"Okay, okay, okay, it's good that she's born. Is your elder sister okay?"
"My eldest sister is fine."
Uncle Shen and Zhang Cuicui were also happy, "Mom and Dad, Shu Yu is blessed. The first child is a boy."
"In our family, we love both boys and girls."
"Yes, yes, we both want it." The parents-in-law both want it. If they gave birth to a series of girls, they would be talked about and embarrassed to go out. But it would be different if the first child was a boy. With a boy, they would not be afraid of being talked about no matter how many girls they gave birth to.
"Mom and Dad, Shu Yu has given birth. Let's send some things over to nourish her body." These were said by Liu Pandi. Her eldest niece was good to her son, so she also had to be good to her eldest niece.
Now that the man has a job, he said he would send some nourishing things to his eldest niece. Liu Pandi felt confident when he said this.
Zhang Cuicui and Li Caixia also expressed their opinions, "Yes, we are going to send something to Shu Yu to replenish her body."
Old Mrs. Shen was pleased with her daughter-in-law's attitude. "It's up to you all. It's a token of your appreciation. Shu Yu knows that you care about her, and she's happy too."
"Grandma, Dad, Mom, my elder sister has given birth. I want to go take care of her."
"So how do you do your job?"
"Let my third sister-in-law help me with work for a while." The third sister-in-law Shen Qiu mentioned was his own sister-in-law, Shen Jiaguo's wife.
"Little sister, go ahead. I'll help you with your work."
The daughter's work is done by her daughter-in-law. If she wants to join the army, Li Caixia will not stop her. "Go if you want to. Don't get into trouble there. Help your elder sister."
The eldest granddaughter had already given birth, and it was winter again. There was nothing much to do at home, so Old Man and Old Lady Shen wanted to go see their eldest granddaughter. "Xiao Qiu, tell your eldest sister that your grandfather and I will be going to the army in a few days."
"I'll send a telegram to my elder sister now."
The parents-in-law were going to the army to visit their eldest niece. Zhang Cuicui and her two sisters-in-law began to think about what they had at home so that they could ask the parents-in-law to bring some to their eldest niece.
Wei Fangcao brought back a lot of brown sugar from her mother's house. "Mom, there are still three pounds of brown sugar at home. Take out two pounds and let my younger sister bring them to my older sister."
"Okay, just think of it as something you and I bought. I'll give you the money later."
After she got married, her mother-in-law had always been very kind to her and never interfered with their affairs. She supported her in everything she wanted to do. When she took out some brown sugar, Wei Fangcao would never ask her mother-in-law for money. "Mom, what are you doing? How can I ask you for money for my elder sister to take two kilograms of brown sugar? She is also my sister."
After saying this, Shen Jiaguo smiled foolishly, "Fangcao, you are so nice."
There was a piece of bacon in the big house, which Zhang Cuicui was reluctant to eat during the New Year. She planned to take the bacon out and let her parents-in-law take it to the army to feed her eldest niece.
There was nothing good in the third room except milk powder. Whenever Uncle Shen brought back something good, she would eat it up the next day.
She even had to go out and exchange things for her niece.
She remembered that her second uncle's house had cured pork ribs. Liu Pandi left the child to her mother-in-law to take care of and went out.
