——————-

She wasn’t physically tired, but her heart was exhausted.

Initially, Jiang Xiaoying was hired as a postpartum caregiver, and Xie Jingchen, fearing she couldn’t cope alone, had a veteran nurse aid from the hospital assist, so Zhang Shanni mainly had to breastfeed; the children rarely needed to come to her.

Her mother-in-law had come early in the morning and then went back at ten o’clock to prepare a special postpartum meal. At twelve o’clock, she promptly brought the meal to the hospital, seemingly afraid that Zhang Shanni would go hungry.

Having such a mother-in-law, who was always concerned about her well-being, Zhang Shanni felt that her efforts were rewarded, and she was truly happy.

It was not long after she had just finished feeding the babies that Yan Jinsi arrived. With both her mother-in-law and Sister Xiao Ying each carrying a baby, they sat in the hospital garden to entertain them.

They were so small and practically always asleep; they couldn’t really interact or play.

However, because Yan Jinsi was here, the mother-in-law tactfully decided to take the babies downstairs.

As the weather was hot and there was no air conditioning in this era, the hospital garden connected to the ward building and had a shaded pavilion, making it suitable for family members to let the infants bask in the early morning sun.

Although it was now noon, there was at least a pavilion, which was better ventilated than staying inside the patient’s room.

In the area of the hospital where Zhang Shanni was, where all the women who had just given birth were accommodated, windows were only cracked open for a bit of air. One could say, even with fans, it was terribly stuffy.

Moreover, the elderly believed that one should not be exposed to drafts during postpartum recovery and that not even fans were allowed in the room! —Zhang Shanni felt that this was the most suffering part of having a baby and doing the confinement.

One word, hot.

Yan Jinsi, being physically weak and naturally cool, didn’t find the room too hot.

Even if it was hot, as long as his own sister was by his side, he felt he could bear it.

But Xie Jingchen was different; he came in from outside. Despite the heat outside, at least there was passing breeze, unlike this room which was devoid of airflow, filled only with the smell of disinfectants!

It was nauseatingly pungent.

Such a harsh environment, it genuinely seemed better to go home!

Upon seeing his young wife’s slightly flushed face, Xie Jingchen tightened inside, his hand instinctively reaching to check her forehead’s temperature, "Wife, are you okay? Why is your face so red?"

Zhang Shanni shook her head innocently, "I’m not sick."

Realizing his young wife didn’t have a fever relieved him. As long as she wasn’t ill again, he felt reassured, "I’ll eat soon, what’s wrong with you? Too stuffy and hot?"

"Yes. Husband, can I go home now?" Zhang Shanni felt helpless, her mother-in-law had strictly forbidden anyone from turning on the fan, explicitly stating that during the confinement period, she shouldn’t be exposed to any drafts.

She didn’t want to worry the elderly, and moreover, they were concerned about her well-being, although she didn’t quite understand why drafts were forbidden during postpartum.

But her mother-in-law said it was tradition, and she felt powerless against her mother-in-law and these ’traditions.’

She just thought it would be better to be home, where they lived on the third floor, which was much more comfortable than the hospital anyway.
