Wealthy Beauty in the 60s-Chapter 612 - 614 Multiple Births

In July, Feiteng returned home with Yu Jialin, who had a somewhat pale complexion, startling Xia Xiao.

"How have you been taking care of Jiali?" Xia Xiao was worried seeing the state of her daughter-in-law.

Feiteng was full of self-reproach, "It’s my fault."

Xia Xiao asked, "Didn’t you drink the water from the water dispenser at home?"

"We’ve been drinking that water for a week; I’ve replaced it."

Xia Xiao felt a pang of pity and didn’t expect her son to have dumped the spring water she had provided. What a waste.

Xia Xiao quickly poured a cup of warm water with added spring water for Yu Jialin to drink and then sent Feiteng to take Yu Jialin to see Wen Xianghong while Xia Xiao went to prepare meals.

Wen Xianghong also said that Jiali’s pregnancy didn’t look good and that she needed proper care. Xia Xiao fed Jiali spring water every day and couldn’t help but feel anxious.

At this time, the Gao family had all returned, and so had Feiyue and Ye Jia. Everyone was as thin as refugees, but the fact they returned safely made Xia Xiao very happy.

Old Sir Jing had just woken up and was delighted to see Jing Yao and Feiling, saying that if it hadn’t been for the strength given to him by Feiling’s pregnancy, he feared he might not have made it through.

Nowadays, everyone was back home, safe and sound, and reunited. Both the Gao family and the Jing Family celebrated properly.

"Mom, the doctor said it’s triplets." Feiling brought more good news to Xia Xiao.

Xia Xiao was overjoyed, "Why didn’t you tell me earlier?"

Feiling pouted and said, "Ever since I got pregnant, I’ve become a high-priority protective target. If I had said that I’m expecting triplets, you all would have treated me like a national treasure, that would have been so uncomfortable for me."

Xia Xiao couldn’t help but laugh, "Are you sure Jing Yao doesn’t know?"

Feiling smiled and said, "He really doesn’t know. I asked the doctor myself. I have to give them some surprises."

"You, just make sure to take care of yourself and the babies," Xia Xiao advised.

"Of course," replied Feiling, as she affectionately nestled her head onto Xia Xiao’s shoulder, then asked, "When is my little sister-in-law due?"

"Jiali, her due date has just passed, but there’s no sign of labor yet. I’m concerned, Feiteng and Jiali have gone to the hospital now," Xia Xiao said.

"I’ve read about it; forty-one and forty-two weeks are considered late term. At forty-two weeks, the fetus is a bit old and might require induction or a cesarean section to be delivered."

In the past few months, Feiling, while nurturing her pregnancy in the Western Country, had seriously studied this pregnancy and childbirth information.

Xia Xiao nodded and said, "The fetuses are still normal, but they’re just not coming out."

"Maybe my nephew is just too lazy, still snoozing comfortably inside Mom’s tummy," joked Feiling.

Xia Xiao laughed at this.

After a while, Feiling went back to the Jing Family, and Xia Xiao, without waiting for Feiteng to return, called him, "How is Jiali?"

Feiteng replied, "The doctor said the fetus is all normal, but they recommend hospital observation."

Xia Xiao said, "You come back first. It would be better for her to give birth at your sister-in-law’s Military District Hospital." 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

"Okay, I’ll bring Jiali back now."

When Feiteng and the others returned, Wen Xianghong was still checking Jiali’s pulse and said, "It’s okay, let’s check again in a few days."

Feiling, back in the Jing Family, indeed became a high-priority protective target.

Since Jing Yao’s sister-in-law and cousin-in-law’s bellies were still quiet, they weren’t in a rush, especially Wen Shufei, who didn’t care much despite Mrs. Jing’s urging.

But now that Feiling was pregnant, they all felt more or less pressured.

Also, because of Feiling’s pregnancy, Mrs. Jing’s attitude towards her had changed drastically, constantly thinking about how to strengthen Feiling’s body. She also prepared an extra portion for Wen Shufei, hoping that she would strengthen herself so the baby would come sooner.

But this wasn’t a happy situation for Wen Shufei; what Mrs. Jing found to be good might not be the same for her, so Wen Shufei was quite annoyed, either pouring away those soups or feeding them to Jing Hao.

Although Jing Hao had many girlfriends before marriage, he was very proper after marriage and put more effort into his work, seemingly becoming much more mature and steady, not as playful as before.

But what was shocking was that there was another baby in Yu Jialin’s womb, unnoticed in earlier examinations, and neither of the babies had come out.

So, Yu Jialin, who had started a natural delivery but ended up with complications, ultimately had a cesarean section, enduring much hardship in this birth.

Feiteng’s twins were born crying, one healthy, but the other quite small, even with some irregular heartbeat.

Xia Xiao felt heartbroken, and deep down, she was filled with regret. If only she had gone from the space every day to look after Yu Jialin with spring water, perhaps both children would have been fine.

Holding her little grandson, Xia Xiao felt a surge of self-blame. Although she was using spring water to nurse Yu Jialin every day, seeing the child like this, it clearly wasn’t enough.

Xia Xiao wasn’t a doctor, and Wen Xianghong was getting old; her senses were not as sharp as before, and her examination of Yu Jialin wasn’t that accurate.

Xia Xiao even thought, if it weren’t for the nourishment of the spring water, perhaps the child wouldn’t survive.

Shitou gently pulled at Xia Xiao, "Don’t blame yourself."

Xia Xiao sighed heavily, her heart was heavy with discomfort.

Since the younger grandson was under observation at the hospital, Yu Jialin stayed in the hospital for half a month before returning home.

Xia Xiao hired a postpartum caregiver to look after Yu Jialin, and she took care of the two grandsons herself. Since Jiali temporarily had no breast milk, Xia Xiao prepared the formula with spring water for the two little grandsons to drink.

Shitou, now capable of taking care of his younger brothers, seemed even more like a little adult after joining the youth class, helping Xia Xiao a lot.

Because of Yu Jialin’s childbirth, Xia Xiao took even more care of Feiling’s pregnancy, sending her a bowl of soup to nourish her every day.

Feiling was truly afraid, but under Xia Xiao’s stern gaze, had no choice but to drink the soup reluctantly.
