Xin Yi looked troubled. "I also want to stay a few more days, but I came here to support the development of the countryside. It's not right for me to keep taking leave and not working. Besides, you should rest well during your postpartum period and take good care of your health. Otherwise, you'll suffer later."

By the way, I heard that women who give birth to twins need to have a double postpartum period. Is that a custom here?

Hong Xing looked at her mother with a puzzled expression. Aunt Qin thought for a moment and said, "Oh right, I almost forgot about that too. Since you'll be taking care of the baby anyway, Xing'er, you can have a double postpartum period!"

Hongxing looked at Xinyi with a reproachful expression, "It's easy for you to talk when you're not in the same boat. I already can't accept not being able to shower or wash my hair for a month, and now I have to have to do double confinement? I'll go crazy! No, no, this absolutely can't happen!"

Aunt Qin earnestly advised, "What are you saying? Isn't this all to get your health back? Childbirth is like stepping into the gates of hell for a woman; it severely damages her body. If you don't take care of yourself, it will be much harder when you get older. If you don't believe me, ask your Aunt Feng; she's a doctor!"

Seeing that everyone was looking at her, Feng Hua explained, "Sister Qin is right. Logically speaking, it's better to have a longer postpartum period because not everyone's body can recover that quickly, especially after having twins. It has a greater impact on the mother's body in all aspects, and most of the mother's nutrition is transferred to the babies. So, during the postpartum period, you must make up for the previous deficiencies. Otherwise, you will suffer from many health problems when you get older. This is not a joke. I also suggest having a double postpartum period. Of course, this is just a suggestion. Whether you listen to it or not is up to you."

“Yes, we’ll definitely have a double postpartum period. It’s okay, Xing’er. My salary is enough to support two children and you. Don’t worry. Just make sure you take good care of yourself. I’m looking forward to growing old with you and seeing our two children get married and have children. You can’t have any problems, or I definitely won’t live alone.”

Oh dear, Hong Xing is prone to crying after giving birth. Tong Yang's words made Hong Xing think about how her two children would suffer if she died young due to health reasons. She didn't think about Tong Yang following her, but was worried about the future of her two children. Thinking of this, her nose tingled and tears kept flowing.

Seeing Hong Xing crying, Tong Yang quickly hugged her tightly and comforted her, "It's okay, it's okay, Xing'er, we'll be alright, we'll definitely be alright. Don't cry, don't be sad, okay? Crying too much is bad for your eyes, okay?"

Hong Xin tried her best to control her emotions, sobbing as she said, "Okay, for you and the baby, I will definitely live to the end. I'll have to do double confinement, what's there to be afraid of? It's settled then!"

Hong Xing had no idea that it was easier said than done. If a month was so hard to endure, how much harder would it be to endure two months? But that's a story for another time.

Although everyone tried their best to persuade Xin Yi to stay, she insisted on returning to the village first, despite their objections. After all, she had already been away for two days and had taken leave beforehand. Continuing like this, even with the village chief's protection, would still have a negative impact. Besides, she had a home there, and her dried rabbit meat had been stolen last time, with no results yet in the investigation. This time, she was determined to catch the thief!

Feng Yi originally suggested driving Xin Yi back to the village, but Xin Yi was worried that it would be too much trouble. After much persuasion, she finally got Feng Yi to agree to just take her to the car. After saying goodbye to everyone, Xin Yi and Feng Yi left the hospital.

Feng Yi drove Xin Yi to the bus station in a sullen mood. Before getting off the bus, he tried to persuade her to stay one more day: "Yi Yi, just stay one more day. We just officially started dating today. If you leave now, I'm afraid you'll forget you even have me as your boyfriend in a few days!"

"Oh, how can you be so childish? I've already promised you, so I won't go back on my word, unless you treat me badly or are unfaithful to me, hmm..."

Feng Yi quickly covered Xin Yi's mouth, "I swore in the name of the Party that I would treat you well for the rest of my life. If I treat you badly or have any connection with others, you can condemn me to eternal damnation."

Xin Yi forcefully pried Feng Yi's hands away. "Hey, don't take it seriously. I was just saying. I already know. You're my boyfriend, and I'm your boyfriend. Once you're done with this enemy spy thing, you can come to the village to find me. Anyway, I live alone..."

Xin Yi was outspoken, and regretted her words as soon as they were spoken, as if she had implied something to the other person.

Feng Yi also realized the other meaning behind those words, and in an instant, his ears and cheeks turned red.

Xin Yi coughed and explained, "I didn't mean anything by it. I was just saying, um, you can come to my place, I'll cook for you. Um, I'm not entirely alone, I have Little Fatty here too, that's my best friend from the educated youth settlement, Liu Mengting. I'll introduce you two to each other next time, she's so much fun!"

Feng Yi gazed at Xin Yi with deep affection. "I'm not thinking anything. Wait for me. Be careful. The autumn harvest is coming soon, so don't overwork yourself. Wait for me to come and help you. I'll come over as soon as I have time."

"You, aren't you a soldier? How come you're so free? Your military camp shouldn't be very close to Dahe Village, right? Running back and forth will waste a lot of time!"

"Well, the distance isn't too bad, it won't take up much time. Recently, Xiao Meng and I have been investigating enemy spies, so we're relatively free. So wait for me, I'll definitely come find you!"

"Alright, alright, the train is about to leave, I have to get on quickly. Take care of yourself, no matter how busy you are, make sure to eat on time, and be careful. Remember, you have me now, so don't put yourself in danger, okay?"

"I understand. I will definitely protect myself. For your sake, I will live well."

Suddenly, Xin Yi thought of something, her face flushed, and she whispered, "Come closer to me."

Although Feng Yi was puzzled, he still obediently moved his face closer.

Xin Yi quickly gave Feng Yi a light peck on the cheek, and before Feng Yi could react, she turned and ran into the car.

"Once this is stamped, you're mine. You're not allowed to have anything to do with anyone else, and remember to think of me!"

The car drove off, leaving Feng Yi behind. He stood there alone, stroking the cheek that Xin Yi had kissed, savoring the memory.

She kissed me! He actually kissed me! Her lips were so soft. Is this what love feels like?
