Rebirth: Regaining Joyful Moments-Chapter 1217 - 1219: She’s Fallen Out of Favor

In the end, neither Jiang Wanru nor Ji Ying could bear to leave, while Su Jinrong and Xu Qinghe were sent home.

When Xu Nianhua woke up again, she was surrounded by a strong aroma. She opened her eyes to see Pei Yicheng stirring a pot of millet porridge.

"You’re awake? The porridge is just at the right temperature." Pei Yicheng ladled the porridge from the thermos and placed it aside to cool. He carefully helped her sit up, saying, "Have a bit of water first to moisten your lips."

"Where’s the baby?" Despite her hunger, Xu Nianhua most wanted to see her newborn child.

"Here, take a look at the baby." Jiang Wanru gently picked up the baby, bending down to place him beside her bed so Xu Nianhua could have a good look.

"Did I give birth to this?"

Xu Nianhua gazed at the sleeping baby, feeling utterly amazed.

Jiang Wanru chuckled, "Of course, you gave birth to this baby. Rest assured, we watched over the entire process yesterday, so there’s no chance of any mix-up."

"Exactly," Ji Ying agreed enthusiastically. They were as cautious as thieves over this, knowing Xu Nianhua had been switched at birth herself once.

Su Jinrong had also made ample arrangements in this regard. If it hadn’t been too late to build a private hospital, he would have constructed one just for this.

"So cute."

Xu Nianhua gently poked the baby’s cheek.

Jiang Wanru quickly took the baby away, saying with a heartache, "Don’t poke his face, be careful not to hurt him, alright?" Jiang Wanru gently moved the baby away.

Ji Ying chastised from the side, "The baby just arrived, you shouldn’t poke his face." 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

Xu Nianhua: "..."

She wondered for a moment if she had lost her favoritism.

She only gently poked the baby’s face; could it really cause harm?

Were her two moms making a mountain out of a molehill?

"Let’s have some porridge." Pei Yicheng carefully fed her, ensuring each spoonful was cool enough, gently blowing on it.

Xu Nianhua grinned, thinking: At least my husband cares for me.

After a while, Pei Guozhong and his wife arrived. After attending Xu Nian’an’s wedding, they came along because Xu Nianhua was about to give birth, and Pei Guozhong was about to become a grandfather, naturally reluctant to leave at this moment.

Upon hearing Pei Yicheng’s good news, Pei Guozhong and Wan Hongxing hurried over. Knowing she had just given birth and couldn’t consume overly nutritious foods, they specially brought red sugar millet porridge, which helps replenish blood and nourish the stomach.

"Dad, Aunt Wan," Xu Nianhua greeted voluntarily.

"Nianhua, you’ve worked hard," Wan Hongxing said with a warm smile, "During the first three days after childbirth, it’s best to consume more porridge and noodles. I made some red sugar millet porridge. If it’s not enough, you can have some."

"Thank you, Aunt Wan." Xu Nianhua drank her millet porridge, holding a favorable impression of Wan Hongxing, her half step-mother-in-law, who had constantly emphasized the importance of notifying them during childbirth.

But it was all too sudden last night.

"In-laws, sorry for the trouble, we didn’t know yesterday."

Wan Hongxing apologized sincerely, her words gentle yet filled with regret. Jiang Wanru and Ji Ying certainly wouldn’t be unhappy about it; they were just too rushed yesterday that they forgot to inform the Pei Family.

"Oh my, the baby looks so good!" Wan Hongxing exclaimed excitedly upon seeing the baby, turning to Pei Guozhong beside her, "Guozhong, come look at the child, he looks really good, Yicheng truly found a wonderful wife."

"Indeed, even the nurses say the baby looks great, unlike a newborn." When Jiang Wanru talked about her grandchild, pride was evident in her tone.
