Chapter 450, Episode 0494: Zhang Hongying Arrives

Lin Yuexi couldn't figure out Huo Han's true thoughts. She didn't know if the lapse she witnessed was due to feelings, responsibility, or, like many others, because of her special circumstances.

She's not good at this, and she doesn't want to be good at it.

Feelings are the most delicate thing, and she feels that things are fine as they are now, so that no one has to burden anyone else.

Lin Yuexi's daze lasted only a moment. A person who has just given birth would not be in good spirits. Huo Han did not notice and thought that she was just comforting herself. He felt even more guilty.

From what he knew, production was difficult; it was nowhere near as easy as his wife made it out to be.

However, arguing about whether it's easy or difficult is pointless now. He just needs to keep it in mind and cherish his wife even more in the future.

Based on this principle, Huo Han officially took up the job of a stay-at-home dad. From being stiff all over while holding the baby and flustered when changing diapers, to being able to understand what the baby meant with just a whimper and to be able to dress and change diapers with ease, it only took him less than three days.

It must be said that their learning and comprehension abilities surpass those of many new parents.

Three days later, after Dr. Lin confirmed that Lin Yuexi's health had recovered normally, he was sent back blindfolded, just like when he came, carrying the thank-you gifts from the old man and Huo Han and his wife.

There is a hospital on the base, and there are many female staff members. The obstetrics and gynecology department is naturally indispensable. However, Lin Yuexi's childbirth has attracted a lot of attention. To be on the safe side, the old man did not want to reveal any information about the villa until Lin Yuexi and the child were completely safe.

It's not that we don't trust the medical staff at the base who have already undergone multiple checks, but we're just taking precautions.

Although the mother and daughter are now safe and sound, the old man still has no intention of moving the medical staff at the base. Instead, he made a phone call to his daughter-in-law.

Zhang Hongying was stunned when she received the call. She simply couldn't believe her ears. Good heavens, her beloved daughter had already given birth, and she was only now finding out that her daughter was pregnant!

"Dad, you're really my dad, how could you do such a thing? My darling is my daughter, and I, as her mother, didn't even know she was pregnant until she gave birth?"

As soon as Zhang Hongying came in, she immediately confronted the old man.

She definitely wouldn't have dared to do it before, partly out of filial piety and partly because she was always intimidated by her grandfather's authority.

But this time was different. This time she was in the right, and she was so angry that she forgot to be afraid.

"The situation is special, so it's best to avoid attracting attention here. Besides, if the project that Guai Bao is currently working on is leaked, there's no doubt that someone might do anything to get it."

The old man was also a little guilty. Although he was in the right, he was indeed being a bit dishonest in this matter.

After a moment of silence, the old man added, "The person who came to pick you up should have told you that once you're here, it's not something that will happen overnight if you want to leave."

Zhang Hongying found it hard to accept at first, but she always understood what was important and what was not. When the old man said that, the pent-up anger in her chest was punctured by a pin and leaked out completely with a few hissing sounds.

“I told you, I discussed it with Lao Leng. Guai Bao and Xiao Huo are both busy, Dad, you have a lot to do too, and Lao Leng has someone to take care of things. Anyway, I’ve always been free, so I can come for a few more years without any problems.”

"Old Leng said he'll come when he retires."

Zhang Hongying anxiously peeked upstairs, "Is my baby asleep or awake? Where's my little darling? Dad, my little darling must look a lot like my baby, right?"

"What do you mean by 'big baby' or 'little baby'? Last night, the young couple gave the baby a nickname, 'Sweet Baby,' and they asked me to choose the formal name."

The old man proudly crossed his legs. He and Old Man Huo had been vying for the right to name the baby ever since they learned their beloved grandson was pregnant.

Both children have rather unusual jobs, and to avoid burdening them, the two elderly men kept the matter a secret from themselves and their bodyguard.

Taking advantage of his proximity and other conveniences, the old man pulled off a series of maneuvers, and now Old Man Huo is still unaware that he has a great-granddaughter. Although it's a bit shameless, he has managed to snatch the right to name her.

Zhang Hongying had no idea that there were so many intricacies involved in naming her granddaughter. Anyway, with her grandfather, who treated her daughter like a precious gem, around, she and Lao Leng never expected that such a thing would happen to them, and since they had no expectations, they didn't dare to think too much about it.

At this moment, her daughter's name was not her main concern; what she wanted most was to see her.

"Dad, I'll go check on Guabao and Tianbao first."

The old man understood her feelings, waved his hand to let her go, and said, "Go."

Unfortunately, Lin Yuexi and Xiaotianbao were both asleep at the moment. Huo Han had gone to the study to make a phone call, and Aunt Ye was keeping watch in the room.

Aunt Ye recognized Zhang Hongying. After opening the door, she quickly shushed her and almost silently informed Lin Yuexi and her daughter that they were asleep. Then she gestured for them to go to the small hall to talk.

Zhang Hongying had just arrived and was unaware of the situation, so she wasn't in a bad mood. She nodded and went to wait in the small hall.

Aunt Ye first checked the situation inside the house to make sure she hadn't disturbed the mother and daughter inside, then she felt relieved and carefully walked out, gently closing the door behind her.

Upon arriving at the small hall, she first apologized to Zhang Hongying and explained why she had stopped her: "The leader didn't sleep all night and just fell asleep."

Zhang Hongying was anxious, but she wouldn't ask Lin Yuexi why she was going back to work right after giving birth. Instead, she suppressed her anxiety and gestured for Aunt Ye to sit down and talk slowly.

The person she was facing was Zhang Hongying, the leader's mother. Aunt Ye didn't hide anything after sitting down, mainly because she didn't know much anyway, so there was no point in hiding it.

“Last night, around midnight, someone called. After the commander answered the phone, he asked me to take Tianbao to the next room to take care of her. He also asked Commander Huo to move a low table to the bed and start working. He was busy working until an hour ago.”

The fact that someone came to find her daughter in the middle of the night must mean it was very important work. Zhang Hongying was definitely distressed and couldn't bring herself to object.

They could only inquire about the health of their daughter and granddaughter.

You've come to the right person. In this whole family, the person who knows Lin Yuexi and her daughter's situation best, besides Huo Han, is Aunt Ye.

Aunt Ye is a martyr's family member; she had only recently become one.

She was the wife of a deputy regimental commander who was stationed at the base after its establishment. That deputy regimental commander was killed in action. The couple had no children, and their relatives on both sides did not have a good relationship with them. Moreover, it was not appropriate for her to leave the base since she had already joined it.

Besides, she was originally a member of the team that took care of Lin Yuexi. It's just that she didn't compete or fight for anything and just focused on doing her job, so she wasn't very noticeable in the team.

After inquiring, it was learned that although she had no children, she had taken care of many pregnant women and helped several families with inconvenient children with postpartum care. Her character was personally guaranteed by Zhao Jianguo.

As a result, he was transferred to Lin Yuexi's side to take care of her personally.

Aunt Ye knew she was being given special treatment, and she cherished this opportunity, so she did her best.

So when I talked to Zhang Hongying, she could describe it in great detail, down to how many cups of water Lin Yuexi drank in a day, how much water she drank in each cup, how many meals she ate in a day, what each meal was, and how much it was.
