Chapter 428: The Discord Between Sister-in-Laws Over Bearing a Son (3)_1
Xia Zheng also spotted it, and squinted his eyes, having been so agitated that he rolled his eyes exaggeratedly and paid him no mind anymore.
Lin Jiaxin, however, hadn’t caught on, and asked anxiously, "Divine Doctor, it’s a boy, no mistake there. I’m asking if he’s got any illness? How is his constitution?"
"Nothing serious, just a bit weak. Just needs to eat and sleep more, and he’ll be fine." Lao Fan strolled out of the room leisurely, but before leaving, he didn’t forget to take another glance at the little fellow kicking about on the kang. The little thing was soft and playful like a sticky rice ball, and truly enjoyable to touch.
Hearing Lao Fan say there was nothing wrong, Lin Jiaxin finally settled down, tears of relief brimming in his eyes. He sat down on the edge of the kang, holding the tiny boy, and buried his head in front of the child, his shoulders shaking.
Aunt Wang saw his reaction and knew he was thinking of the child that had died young; tears involuntarily started streaming down her face too. After hoping for a boy for so long, who would have thought the child would pass away so young!
Lin Yuan and Xia Zheng exchanged a glance, both silently reflecting. Although Lao Fan’s recent scare wasn’t the right thing to do, at least they could now be assured knowing the little brother was healthy and safe. Their hearts were settled too, and once Lady Liu woke up, she could confidently tell her mother that her little brother was strong and had no ailments.
Aunt Wang wiped away her tears, patting Lin Jiaxin’s shoulder with a beaming smile, "Quickly dress the baby, lest he catches a cold later."
Lin Jiaxin then somberly nodded, looked up to wipe his eyes, and started to dress the little one. Lin Jiaxin had always doted on his children during their younger years and had even helped them get dressed, so dressing this little one was second nature to him.
