Chapter 390 - 383: Discharged from the Hospital
When Nangong Shulan brought the food, she saw that Qin Xue was sleeping soundly, so she asked Chu Molin to eat first.
“Molin, come and eat. I’ll keep an eye on Qin Xue.” Nangong Shulan put the food on the table and called her son-in-law over.
“Mom, have you eaten yet?” Chu Molin asked his mother-in-law.
“I already ate, you go ahead.” Nangong Shulan had already eaten with her son when she went back home, as he was waiting for her by the door after his training.
So she accompanied her son for dinner before bringing the food to the hospital, and she briefed her son about Qin Xue’s situation as well.
After hearing about it, her son also agreed for Qin Xue to stay here instead of going back to H Province with them.
Initially, her son suggested that she stay here to take care of Qin Xue while he took care of things at home.
But Nangong Shulan knew that Qin Yu liked it here, so she didn’t want her son to follow her back home but instead wanted him to stay here and look after their elder daughter.
Later, her son mentioned that their younger daughter would be on vacation soon. Why not let her come and stay with her sister? That way, they could feel more at ease.
Nangong Shulan thought that was a good idea, so she agreed to it.
Once her elder daughter had recovered, she would go back and let their younger daughter come.
She would come back to serve her elder daughter’s confinement period when the due date approached.
The mother and son quickly finished their meal after discussing things, and came to the hospital with the food.
They didn’t expect that their elder daughter was already asleep, so they had to put the food in hot water to keep it warm until she woke up.
Chu Molin was relieved to know that his mother-in-law had eaten, so he went to eat the food slowly.
After Chu Molin finished eating, he asked his mother-in-law to go back and rest. He would take care of his wife. Nangong Shulan thought it was good for the couple to spend more time together, and she could also go back home and make soup for her daughter, so she agreed and left.
Qin Xue was awakened by her hunger and saw Chu Molin writing something when she opened her eyes.
“Awake? Are you hungry?” Chu Molin looked up at his wife when he heard her stirring.
“Yeah, I’m so hungry.” Qin Xue held her stomach and cried out.
“Hold on, I’ll get you some food.” Chu Molin took the food out of the hot water.
Chu Molin had been diligently changing the hot water to keep the food warm, so it was still hot when Qin Xue woke up.
“The food is still hot, eat slowly.” Chu Molin wiped the water off the bottom of the container before handing it to Qin Xue.
“Alright, I know.” Qin Xue felt so hungry that she could eat a whole cow, and she began to eat the food in large bites. She didn’t even remember Chu Molin telling her to eat slowly just now.
Chu Molin just shook his head and let her be, sitting in his chair and continuing to write his plans.
After Qin Xue finished eating, she finally felt full of energy again.
“People are iron and food is steel, you get anxious if you miss a meal, that’s so true! I almost starved to death.” Qin Xue said with a thousand emotions.
“You were still able to sleep that long while hungry.” Chu Molin looked up at his wife with a glance.
“When you’re asleep, you don’t feel hungry.” Qin Xue stuck out her tongue in response.
“You always have your way of saying things.” Chu Molin went to wash the container.
“That’s just how it is, alright?” Qin Xue was like this before, too. Once she slept, she didn’t feel hungry at all, but the moment she woke up, she would cry out that she was starving.
Who would have thought that this habit of hers hadn’t changed even after being in a new era and environment?
Qin Xue got up to put on her shoes and go to the bathroom. Although she hadn’t drunk any water today, people do have emergency needs.
And so, Qin Xue stayed in the hospital for three days until the baby in her belly had stabilized before she went to complete the discharge procedures.
“Time to go home!” Qin Xue walked in the front with her bag, while Chu Molin carried the toiletries behind her. The couple walked out of the hospital, one in front and one behind.
