No reconciliation, no forgiveness! Mr. Pei leaves with nothing.

When Jiang Hua woke up, her father was by her side the whole time. Whenever he was free, he would take care of the child himself, feeding him and loving him dearly. In fact, as soon as he was born, Jiang Weiguo had someone make a golden longevity lock and tied it to his ankle with a small red rope.

Jiang Weiguo: "There's an even bigger one at home. When you grow up, your grandpa will give it to you. It has gold and silver parts. Just tell your grandpa what you want, and he'll have everything you need."

Upon receiving the call, Jiang Huai rushed over immediately, and Xiao Zhu also took leave and canceled her afternoon classes to come to the hospital.

Grandpa immediately wanted to hold the baby, so Jiang Weiguo gave the baby to him. "After I found out you were awake, I didn't tell the Huo family. There are too many of them, and they're too noisy. Before, outside the delivery room, they were the ones who were loud because of their high positions and power."

Jiang Hua smiled and said, "Grandpa didn't suffer any loss, did he?"

Xiao Zhu laughed and said, "How could Grandpa possibly suffer a loss? Third Master Huo used to be Grandpa's student, and they lived in the same compound. Grandpa said a few words to him, and Third Master Huo quickly quieted down."

A large family like the Huo family values ​​family etiquette and traditions most. "Grandpa also told me that among the students he taught in the past, the most mischievous ones were those brothers from the Huo family. They were practically devils, and they almost turned the school upside down."

"But in the end, it was Grandpa who was able to cure them."

Sure enough, no matter how important a person is, their deep-seated fear of teachers will never change.

The two families arrived one after the other, and in just over ten minutes, the ward was suddenly packed with people, each bringing a gift, and they had already taken up half the ward.

It was rare for Master Huo to show up, but he came to see Jiang Hua and brought her a set of porcelain tableware made in the national kiln, exactly three sets. He asked her a few questions about her situation and then went to see the children.

Master Huo gifted five properties in prime locations in the capital city, along with some toys for children…

Huo Beishen was about to come over when Yue Simiao pushed him away, pulling Wen Man to sit by Jiang Hua's bedside. Yue Simiao whispered to Jiang Hua, "Mistress, I have good news for you."

“I’m telling you, I overheard something in the middle of the night. Huo Beishen always has a mysterious connection with someone. Every time I catch him, he doesn’t tell me. I suspect it’s related to the head of the family.”

Wen Man nodded: "Yes, I recently learned some divination from a master. I asked the master to cast a divination for me, taking the official ghost as the useful god. The result showed that the useful god was strong and rooted, supported by the original god, while the unfavorable official ghost was restrained. It said that everything was fine and there was still hope."

Amidst the noise, the grandfather spoke up, asking, "Have you chosen a name for the child yet?"

Jiang Hua: "Okay, it's ready. Call..."

...

Jiang Hua stayed in the hospital for a few days. After the doctor said she was fine and could be discharged, she returned to Jinsha Shallow Bay.

As the car slowly drove into the residential area, familiar scenery came into view.

The exquisite villa looked especially cozy under the sunlight.

Jiang Hua carried the child and walked into the house step by step. She looked down at the child gently, who was sucking on his little hand and looking at her with big, curious eyes.

"We're going home."

The baby seemed to understand her words and responded to Jiang Hua by blowing bubbles.

Everything in the house was just as neat and orderly as when she left.

Xu Qiulan: "Miss, you need to go back to your room and lie down quickly. You must take good care of your body during your postpartum period."

Jiang Hua went upstairs, and Xu Ma insisted on taking care of her during her postpartum period. As she lay down, Xu Ma gently placed the baby next to Jiang Hua. The baby watched quietly, its little hand resting on Jiang Hua's chest.

Xu Qiulan said with a smile, "Young master, you are so smart. At such a young age, as soon as you put your hand down, we know that you want to drink milk, and you don't cry."

"Yes, how come you're so well-behaved?"

Jiang Hua used to dislike children because she felt that if children were like her—uncontrollable and playful—she would only feel mentally and physically exhausted, and always think negatively. As she thought about it, she lost all hope for having children.

Now that they actually have a child, Jiang Hua never expected him to be so well-behaved, neither crying nor making a fuss...

After Jiang Hua fed him, she fell asleep immediately. The baby slept soundly, his little face was rosy, and his long eyelashes trembled slightly, as if he were having a sweet dream.

She couldn't help but reach out and gently stroke the child's face; the delicate touch softened her heart.

Xu Qiulan didn't want to disturb them and left.

She looked closely at the child's appearance. The child's eyebrows and eyes resembled his, as did his nose and mouth, but only his eyes were particularly like hers.

“Your older brother and sister are also very beautiful,” Jiang Hua murmured softly. “They are not as lucky as you to be able to see the world.”

After feeding the baby, she held him and fell asleep. Jiang Hua was prone to feeling cold, and the baby in her arms was like a little furnace. The two of them were covered with a blanket, and soon Jiang Hua was drenched in sweat, as if she had been pulled out of the water.

I was sleeping soundly when a loud cry suddenly broke the silence of the room.

Jiang Hua was startled and quickly hugged the child in her arms, gently coaxing, "Don't cry, don't cry, Mommy's here."

However, the child's crying did not stop; instead, it grew louder and louder, and his little face turned red from crying.

Jiang Hua panicked a little. As soon as Xu Ma heard the noise, she quickly came in, looked at him, and said, "It's nothing, the young master peed."

"Luckily, I didn't wet the bed."

As soon as Xu Qiulan picked him up and was about to clean the diaper, he pooped, getting poop all over Xu's mother's hand. Xu's mother didn't mind, wiped her hands with baby wipes, and quickly cleaned him up after he finished pooping.

Seeing this, Jiang Hua suddenly felt she didn't want the child anymore.

Seeing Jiang Hua frowning with worry, Xu Qiulan smiled and said, "I also took care of Miss Jiang in the same way."

"Compared to the eldest young lady, the young master is already very well-behaved. When the eldest young lady was little, she would always poop all over the master, but the master would never get angry and would always patiently clean her up."

Jiang Hua seemed a little uncomfortable seeing the child. "He just started crying, and I'm starting to not want him anymore."

Whether he understood what she said or not, several servants busied themselves washing and cleaning him, then presented him to Jiang Hua in his arms, smelling sweet. Looking at the baby in the swaddling clothes, with a wronged expression, and seeing Jiang Hua's wide-open mouth, he closed his eyes and was about to cry.

Jiang Hua pressed her slender fingers directly against his nose, "Don't cry."

This action was very effective, and sure enough, he stopped crying.

Two tears welled up in the corners of her eyes.

"Young Master, I didn't expect you to be able to read the young lady's mood at such a young age."

...

After a while, Jiang Hua finished her postpartum confinement. During this time, she ate all kinds of chicken soup, fish, bird's nest, and pig's feet while lying in bed. In just over ten days, she gained ten pounds.

As soon as she got out of bed, Jiang Hua began to resume her postpartum training. She was also afraid that she would gain extra fat on her stomach and not look beautiful in the future.

Xu's mother applies essential oil to her belly every night to help her with stretch marks. Now they have faded a lot, with only a few lines remaining, but they are still somewhat unsightly. Xu's mother says that these are things that are hard to avoid.

Today, Xu Ma happened to be away, so she went back to Yulong Bay to get some things. Jiang Hua was wearing yoga clothes and kneeling on the yoga mat doing exercises. She was very careful with her movements, afraid of disturbing the children's rest.

Hearing the baby cry, Jiang Hua quickly got up and went to the crib. She hadn't really tried to soothe the baby, so she just tried to see if the baby had wet the diaper. She opened the diaper to check if the baby was hungry.

But he had been fed milk just half an hour ago, and Jiang Hua had watched him fall asleep.

This time, the baby cried unusually hard.

She paced back and forth in the house with her child in her arms, gently patting the child's back while humming a soft lullaby.

However, no matter what she did, the child's crying did not subside.

Jiang Hua was at a loss, unsure how to calm the child down.

She suddenly remembered what Xu Ma had told her: children are very sensitive to their mother's scent and voice.

Perhaps her hugs and comforting words will work.

So, Jiang Hua held the child tightly to her chest and gently rubbed her cheek against the child's head.

A miracle happened: the child's crying gradually subsided and eventually stopped completely.

He stared at Jiang Hua with his big, watery eyes, his lips slightly pouting.

Looking at the child's adorable appearance, Jiang Hua was filled with emotion and joy. She couldn't help but gently kiss the child's forehead, "How can you be so cute?"

The baby snuggled against Jiang Hua's chest.

From then on, whenever he cried, he would immediately calm down and lie obediently in Jiang Hua's arms as soon as Jiang Hua picked him up.

It seems that this child isn't so bad after all.

When the weather is nice, she holds her child and sunbathes on the balcony.

Before going to bed at night, she would read some poems to her child in French.

However, the child didn't listen to Jiang Hua's words for long before closing his eyes and falling asleep quickly.

It seems she inherited this trait from her; she's not cut out for studying.

Jiang Hua, wearing a silk slip dress, shook her head helplessly. "Baby, Mommy doesn't like studying. But you can't be like Mommy, you know? You have to be like Daddy. You can look more like Mommy, but you absolutely can't be like her when it comes to studying. You have to study hard, you can't be like your deadbeat dad who didn't even graduate high school."

"Although... your father later studied business administration in Germany and... got a pretty good degree."

"You're a boy, and the family company and business will all be handed over to you in the future. Be sensible and obedient, and stop being naughty."

No one responded to any of her words; only the child in her arms slept peacefully with his eyes closed.

Jiang Hua gently patted the child's chest, talking and coaxing him as he stared blankly at the huge photo hanging on the wall opposite the foot of the bed, lost in thought.

...

The full moon celebration was held at the Huo family home. It was a lively affair, and almost everyone invited was a prominent figure in the business and political world, including several influential and powerful individuals in the capital city.

There were over a hundred tables set up, and the red envelopes from various prominent families were piled up thick. Xu Ma followed behind Jiang Hua, and her hands were sore from receiving so many red envelopes.

Jiang Hua has amassed a huge collection of gold and jade bracelets, which are currently stored in her home's storage room. Last time, he took a fancy to the emerald jade bracelet worth 30 million yuan on Jiang Hua's dressing table. He liked to hold it in his hand and has broken countless of them.

Later, Jiang Hua got tired and didn't want to walk anymore, so she handed the child over to Xu Ma.

She followed Simiao, Wenman, and Bao'er to a quiet place, where the four of them formed a mahjong game...

The little guy's clothes were made with gold-embroidered Qilin, which the Huo family spent a year making in advance. The Qilin was relatively understated; the Huo family had previously wanted to use a dragon pattern to symbolize good fortune, but in the end, Jiang Hua and her grandfather thought the Qilin was better.

The banquet ended early.

Upon returning, Jinsha Shallow Bay was already piled high with gifts from various prominent families.

Jiang Hua didn't even glance at the gifts before carrying her sleeping child upstairs.

A calendar hung on the wall in the room, and she took a pen and crossed out a line heavily.

"I'm giving you one more chance. If you don't come back by the time the child turns one year old, you're dead!"

Jiang Hua slammed her paintbrush down on the table in anger, looked at the sleeping child, and went to the bathroom.

...

A few months later, Bao'er gave birth to a daughter. As Shen Bulu wished, the two families happily tied the knot and couldn't wait to arrange the marriage.

In the blink of an eye, another year has passed.

The first birthday banquet was held at the Jiang family's old house.

The place was brightly decorated and bustling with activity. The lanterns swayed in the breeze, and every corner was filled with a festive atmosphere.

In the center of the courtyard, on a ground covered with red brocade, various small objects symbolizing different meanings are carefully arranged.

There were writing brushes, ink, paper, inkstones, and exquisite musical instruments, all surrounding him.

Jiang Hua wore a red cheongsam, looking gentle and charming. Her hair was styled in a high bun, with a few strands falling naturally on both sides of her face, adding to her beauty.

She held the baby tightly in her arms; the baby was exquisitely beautiful, with big eyes like clear lake water, curiously observing everything around her.

Jiang Hua's eyes were full of tenderness as she gently kissed the baby's cheek and whispered, "These are all prepared for you by your great-grandfather. Let Mom see what our Gou Dan likes."

The lottery ceremony began, and Jiang Hua carefully placed the baby in the middle of the red carpet.

The baby was stunned for a moment, seemingly startled by the sudden lively scene. He looked around with a hint of confusion in his eyes. But soon, his innate curiosity took over, and the little guy began to wriggle his chubby little body and slowly crawl on the ground.

Seeing him sitting in front of a calligraphy brush, Jiang Huai smiled and said, "Calligraphy brush is good. You can practice writing articles and calligraphy with your great-grandfather from now on."

As he spoke, he put it down again, climbed over to a golden abacus, picked it up with his little hand, and said to Jiang Weiguo, "This is not bad either. In the future, when I inherit the Jiang family business, I can learn how to do business."

Xiao Zhu stepped forward, trying to guide him, saying, "Goudan, look at this. How about you come and work with your aunt to do jewelry restoration in the future? We can work together to make your mother's studio even more successful."

This included the ring that Jiang Hua placed in the center, the one that represented the matriarch of the Huo family; it was probably the light on it that attracted him.
