Chapter 409 I'll Come Back to Life When You Need Me

"Anyway, the baby is out of my belly, so I've completed my mission."

"I won't be responsible for anything after this," Wen Tang said, not daring to meet Gu Yanli's eyes, afraid that Gu Yanli would say she was irresponsible.

Fortunately, Gu Yanli only gently pinched the bridge of her nose and said with a warm smile, "Okay, don't worry, my parents and I will take care of her, so you won't have to worry."

Wen Tang immediately hugged his arm, "Honey, you're so good to me!"

Her soft, delicate voice made Gu Yanli's Adam's apple bob.

Wen Tang was also a very observant person. She even noticed the movement of the Adam's apple at this moment. After seeing it, Wen Tang deliberately touched it and asked, "Honey, are you thirsty?"

Gu Yanli “…”

He grasped Wen Tang's hand, which was touching his Adam's apple. "Stop fooling around!"

Wen Tang chuckled, "Look at what you're saying. I just gave birth not long ago, I can't even get out of bed yet, why would I make a fuss with you?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Yanli lowered his eyes and smiled at her.

Wen Tang felt a chill run down her spine from laughing.

Because of the chill down her back, Wen Tang's face became even more innocent. Of course, if her eyes hadn't been rolling around so much, she might have looked even more genuinely innocent.

Gu Yanli pulled the thin blanket around her and said, "Don't worry, I have the composure of twenty-six years, and I also have the composure of six months."

"If that doesn't work, how about twenty-six months?"

Wen Tang immediately looked at him, "...Then, that won't do!"

She blinked rapidly. "Then, if you're a widow for twenty-six months, what's the difference if I'm willing to remain a widow for three years?"

Gu Yanli “…”

"...The difference is, I'll come back to life when you need me?"

Wen Tang "..."

"Don't make me laugh, it will hurt my incision," Wen Tang said seriously, but then she couldn't help but burst into laughter. She hissed as she laughed and then dared not laugh anymore.

Gu Yanli also made a cut on his lips, sealing them.

Chi Yue and the others quickly finished their meal and returned with a lunchbox for Gu Yanli. Gu Yanli stood by the window and ate a "hot" meal by himself.

Chi Yue chatted with Wen Tang for a while longer before taking the child and returning with Gu Jinfeng.

Before they went back, Zhong Meixian anxiously asked Wen Tang, "Tang, has she started breathing yet?"

Wen Tang shook her head.

Zhong Meixian said anxiously, "I was thinking of going back with your older sister and the others so I could bring you chicken soup tonight!"

"What am I going to do with you, you old man who never breathes!"

"Can we keep going hungry like this?"

"No, I have to go find a doctor!"

Gu Yanli stood up and said, "I'll go!"

When he returned, Gu Yanli said, "The doctor suggested I get out of bed and walk around!"

Zhong Meixian immediately shouted, "Huh?"

"With a big gash in your stomach, how can you expect someone to get out of bed and walk?" Zhong Meixian gestured to her stomach.

"Isn't this harming people?"

Wen Tang quickly reassured her, "We have no grudges against each other, it's not that serious. The doctor was definitely acting from a professional perspective."

"However, I'm not very hungry, so I'll stay here for now."

Wen Tang would rather go hungry than walk around with her still-developing belly.

"Mom, I don't have anything to do here anyway, and I can't see the child. Why don't you go back with your older sister first?" Wen Tang suggested.

Zhong Meixian shook her head, "I can check on the children from time to time here, without Yan Li having to come all the way."

"It's okay, I won't reply. I'll wait until you've given me some information before I reply."

After saying that, Meixian hurriedly urged her daughter, "You should take Xiaoyue back quickly, or it will be dark by the time you get back."

Gu Jinfeng looked at the scorching heat outside and knew it wouldn't get dark anytime soon, but she didn't delay any longer. Instead, she said, "I'll come over again tomorrow morning, sister-in-law. Is there anything you want to eat? I'll bring you some tomorrow. By then, you'll definitely be able to breathe properly."

Chi Yue also looked at her and said, "What do you want to eat? I'll make it."

Wen Tang knew about Chi Yue's skills, but...

"Spicy..."

"You can't eat spicy food during postpartum confinement," Chi Yue said with a look of rejection.

Zhong Meixian quickly chimed in, "Yes, yes, you can't eat spicy food, cold food, or anything that ruins your appetite."

"Xiao Tang, let's be patient. We should at least get through this month. Otherwise, if we develop a chronic illness, it could be a lifelong problem."

Gu Jinfeng also advised against it!

Wen Tang resigned herself to her fate, "Then let's make some porridge, anything with red beans, mung beans, pumpkin, anything but plain porridge, I'd like something light!"

"Okay, I'll bring it to you tomorrow."

After Chi Yue and the others left, Zhong Meixian, worried that Wen Tang would be bored, started telling Wen Tang about her younger days.

She envied Wen Tang's good fortune, saying, "Even though you've suffered so much, Mom still has to say, Tang, you're lucky!"

"You gave birth to three boys at once; this is a blessing that others can only envy."

Feeling her immobile belly, Wen Tang said, "I don't feel anything!"

Zhong Meixian pulled the chair closer to the hospital bed, saying, "You're young, you don't understand, you don't know what we were like when we were young..."

The old lady started by speaking slowly and deliberately, but later she became increasingly animated and talkative. Wen Tang craned his neck longer and longer, and before he knew it, it was getting dark.

During this time, Gu Yanli visited the child twice.

Then, after it got dark outside, Gu Yanli asked Wen Tang, "Can you feel the air coming in?"

Wen Tang didn't even have time to look at him; she only managed to shake her head.

But his words stopped Zhong Meixian in her tracks: "Why isn't it breathing? Are we really going to go hungry all day?"

Seeing that Zhong Meixian had other ideas, Wen Tang quickly said, "I'm on an IV drip, I'm not hungry at all!"

She refused to get out of bed and walk; she resolutely refused to get out of bed and walk.

She said she wasn't hungry, but when Gu Yanli returned with the food, she watched him and Zhong Meixian and her son eating from their lunchboxes, and the sound of her swallowing was particularly loud.

Gu Yanli stood up and pulled his mother along, saying, "We're right at the door, just call if you need anything!"

After saying that, he pulled his mother, who was holding a lunchbox, outside the ward, and then the two of them squatted down at the ward door to eat.

Gu Juyuan received the telegram the following day.

The telegram was delivered by Xu Zhongguo.

Xu Zhongguo nearly broke the bicycle chain while pedaling all the way.

Then, from a distance, people would shout, "Uncle, Uncle, great news, great news!" Then, as soon as they got to the gate, they would jump off their bicycles and rush to knock on the Gu family's gate before the bicycles had even come to a complete stop.

"Bang!" The bicycle fell over.

Xu Zhongguo glanced back, then ignored it.

Lin Liansheng opened the courtyard gate, and Xu Zhongguo asked, "Where's Uncle?"

"In the backyard!"

Xu Zhongguo went straight to the backyard, and Lin Liansheng saw the bicycle lying on its side by the door and went to help it up.

Gu Juyuan, who was tending to his melon trellis in the backyard, saw Xu Zhongguo arrive and looked up with a smile, saying, "Zhongguo's here, let me pick a melon for you."

He was about to twist the melon when he said that.

But Xu Zhongguo rushed to him in three strides, grabbed his arm, and pulled him outside, exclaiming, "Good news! Huge good news!"

As Xu Zhongguo spoke, he showed the telegram to Gu Juyuan.

But Gu Juyuan didn't recognize him!

He does know a few words, but only a few.

Seeing Gu Juyuan's confusion, Xu Zhongguo quickly told him, "It's a telegram from Yan Li. Your daughter-in-law has given birth."
