Chapter 1269: 310: Joyfully welcomed boy and girl twins_4
Itâs clear that Du Jiaojiao is genuinely terrified of being pressured into marriage.
Itâs as if not getting married would make her a criminal.
Why must women be obligated to marry?
Ni Yang smiled faintly, "Itâs like how fish know whether the water is warm or coldâthey know it instinctively. As long as you feel happy, thatâs all that matters. Sister Jiaojiao, donât worry, I would never pressure anyone to marry."
"Really?" Du Jiaojiao looked at Ni Yang with a hint of disbelief.
Ni Yang was probably one of the few people who truly supported her.
Ni Yang nodded, "I think itâs perfectly normal for independent women to choose not to marry. As long as you can take care of yourself and live without relying on others, thatâs enough. Marriage, when well-managed, is heaven; but if itâs poorly managed, it can be hell. If you encounter a hypocrite or a scumbag, itâd be better not to marry at all. So, Sister Jiaojiao, I support you wholeheartedlyânever marry just for the sake of marrying!"
"Yangyang! Youâre my kindred spirit!" Du Jiaojiao exclaimed excitedly and hugged Ni Yang tightly.
That evening, Du Jiaojiao stayed overnight at the Ni Family home.
Three days later, Du Jiaojiaoâs father arrived to take her back home.
Ni Yang brought out pre-rain Longjing tea to serve him.
"Thank you." Her father accepted the tea cup with both hands.
Ni Yang asked, "Are you heading back this afternoon? Wonât you stay here a few more days?"
Her father shook his head, "No, there are still some trivial matters back in Shanghai that need tending."
"Oh, I see."
After finishing his cup of tea, her father left with Du Jiaojiao.
...
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Shangguan Xi was admitted to the hospital.
She was about to give birth, and her belly was remarkably large. Some spots had appeared on her face, and because her belly was truly enormous, she needed two people to help her walk.
Little Ni Yun touched Shangguan Xiâs belly and exclaimed, "Sister Xiaoxi, your belly is so big! Ah! Your little niece kicked me!"
The thought of finally meeting the children soon made Shangguan Xi very happy. She laughed and said, "Your little niece sure is mischievous, isnât she?"
Little Ni Yun nodded enthusiastically, "Yes, sheâs way too naughty..."
Zhao Yu, standing nearby, felt a bit upset.
Even though she was older than Little Ni Yun, she was only going to be the childrenâs elder sister while Little Ni Yun could be their aunt!
It was simply unfair!
She wanted to be their aunt too! Ugh!
Before a Caesarean section, itâs prohibited to eat any food.
Grandma Wu was deeply worried that Shangguan Xi would feel hungry, so she approached the doctor and said, "Doctor, could you hang a few bottles of nutrient fluids for my granddaughter-in-law?"
The doctor chuckled and said, "Donât worry, Grandma. Being on an empty stomach for a few hours wonât affect her health, and the surgery will begin shortly."
"It really wonât have any adverse effects?"
"Really, it wonât!"
Only then did Grandma Wu feel reassured.
Wu Chenjun stayed by Shangguan Xiâs side the entire time.
"Shangguan Xiaosi, the surgery is about to start. Are you scared?"
Shangguan Xi shook her head, "Iâm not scared; Iâm just excited to meet the two little ones. Itâs me giving birth, not you. Why are you more nervous than I am?"
Seeing Wu Chenjun sweating profusely, Shangguan Xi couldnât help but laugh.
This man was just too endearing.
Before long, the doctor arrived to notify them about the surgery.
Wu Chenjun grabbed the doctorâs sleeve and said solemnly, "Doctor, if thereâs any danger during the surgery, please ensure the motherâs safety first!"
"Understood, donât worry," the doctor responded, looking at Wu Chenjun with slight surprise.
Internally, the doctor marveledâhusbands as considerate as Wu Chenjun were rare these days.
Not entirely reassured, Wu Chenjun continued, "Please make absolutely certain you prioritize my wifeâs safety!"
"Got it!"
Ni Yang and Mo Qishen arrived only after Shangguan Xi had entered the delivery room.
"Has Sister Xiaoxi gone into the delivery room already?"
Grandma Shangguan nodded, "She just went in!"
"How long does the surgery usually take?" Ni Yang asked.
Grandma Shangguan answered, "About an hour and a half to two hours."
A large group of people had gathered outside the delivery room.
After more than an hour, loud cries suddenly echoed from inside.
"Wah-wahâ"
Then came a second cry...
"She delivered! She delivered!" Grandma Wu excitedly grasped Chen Qianâs hand.
Chen Qian was equally thrilled, "Mom! Iâm officially a grandma now!"
Grandma Shangguan clasped her hands together in prayer, "Thank you, Bodhisattva! Truly, thank you!"
Shortly after, two nurses appeared with two tiny babies in their arms. "Are you all Shangguan Xiâs family members?"
"Yes, we are!" Wu Chenjun hurriedly replied, "Iâm Shangguan Xiâs husband! How is she?"
Grandma Wu interjected impatiently, "Iâm Shangguan Xiâs grandmother!"
The nurse continued, "Congratulations! Shangguan Xi delivered boy and girl twins; both the mother and children are safe. This is the brother, and this is the sister!"
With that, the nurse handed the baby boy to Wu Chenjun, while another nurse handed the baby girl to Grandma Wu.
Grandma Wu was overflowing with excitement, "Oh, my darling baby, look how beautiful this little sweetheart is!"
Grandma Shangguan and Grandma Zheng quickly crowded around to take a closer look at the babies.
Moments later, a few of the elders carried the babies off to bathe them, leaving Wu Chenjun, Shangguan Dehui, Ni Cuihua, and Ni Yang at the delivery room doors, waiting for Shangguan Xi.
It wasnât until Shangguan Xi was wheeled out that Wu Chenjun finally breathed a sigh of relief. He hurried over to her side, took her hand, and said, "Honey, youâve worked so hard!"
Shangguan Xiâs voice was weak, "Where are the babies?"
