After being replaced, she changed from a miserable daughter-in-law to a lucky wife

Chapter 532: Not for Free

When Xia Wanniang woke up, she saw Xiao Chiye writing at his desk. There was a small stove not far away, and she could smell the faint aroma of food.

There were two children sleeping in a cradle in the distance, and I didn't know whether they were awake or not.

Xiao Chiye heard the noise and turned to look at the bed. Seeing that she was awake, he quickly put down the pen in his hand and walked to her side: "Wanwan, you're awake. Are you hungry? Mother prepared something to eat for you."

Xia Wanniang: "I'm hungry. Is the child still not awake?"

Xiao Chiye was stunned by her question: "I didn't hear them crying, I'll go check." Then he walked to the cradle and saw the two little ones were still sleeping with their eyes closed.

He returned to the bed, helped her lean against the headboard, and put a soft pillow behind her: "Wait a minute, I'll bring you food." As he said that, he went to the pot and took out the food.

Xia Wanniang felt some pain in her lower body, probably due to a tear. She would need Xiao Chiye to apply some medicine to her later.

She took a sip of water and looked at the light food in the bowl with a helpless look on her face. It seemed that she could only eat light food until her child was weaned.

After she was full, the two little ones in the cradle began to hum softly.

Xia Wanniang knew that the child was hungry, so she asked Xiao Chiye to bring the child over and she fed the child.

Xiao Chiye had taken care of Zilin and Zisen before, so he didn't need anyone to teach him how to take care of a child. He held the child by the scruff of the neck, picked him up, and handed him to Xia Wanniang.

He held the other little guy in his arms and whispered, "Your mother can only feed them one at a time. You have to wait a while."

The little guy seemed to understand, and actually stopped humming and just leaned quietly in his arms.

Xia Wanniang's milk production was going smoothly and the amount of milk was sufficient.

After she finished feeding a child, she would switch with Xiao Chiye.

Xiao Chiye held the well-fed child in his arms, let her lie on his shoulder, patted her back gently, and put her back into the cradle only after she burped.

He also checked the child to see if it was time to change her diaper, cleaned her little butt, put on a clean diaper, and the little one fell asleep again.

Xia Wanniang was feeding another child and turned to look at his skillful movements. He must have been the one who took care of Xiao Zilin and Xiao Zisen in the past.

Xiao Chiye turned around and took away his other daughter, using the same set of movements, gentle and careful, but he didn't look like a man from a military camp at all.

He saw Xia Wanniang looking at him with sparkling eyes, so he walked to her bedside and asked, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Husband, you are a good father." Xia Wanniang looked at him with a smile.

Xiao Chiye was stunned for a moment, then he started laughing.

Xia Wanniang took out a bottle of ointment and asked Xiao Chiye to help her apply it.

When Xiao Chiye applied medicine to her, his brows furrowed: "Does it hurt?"

Xia Wanniang: "A little, but it doesn't hurt that much."

Xiao Chiye moved even more gently, fearing that he would hurt her again: "I'll keep this ointment, and I'll apply it to you again later."

Xia Wanniang nodded: "When I woke up just now, I saw you writing something on the table. What were you writing?"

Xiao Chiye stood up and walked to the table, handing her the written paper to read: "I'm naming my two daughters. Take a look at these to see if there are any you like. If not, I'll think about it again."

In fact, Xia Wanniang had forgotten about naming the two children. She had been calling them babies all the time. Now that he mentioned it, she felt a little apologetic.

She took the paper, which had a lot of names written on it, and each name showed Xiao Chiye's intentions.

Xiao Chiye was in no hurry. He let her take her time to choose and walked back to the desk to start writing.

Xia Wanniang looked up at him and asked, "Are you writing a memorial?"

Xiao Chiye nodded: "I think the ministers in the court are too idle, I have to find something for them to do."

Xia Wanniang: "Yes, they are too idle, but it is true that the soldiers of Daxia are working hard. Why don't we provide some plasters and equipment?"

Xiao Chiye turned his head and looked at her: "Does this count as naked favoritism?"

Xia Wanniang smiled happily: "My husband is a general of Daxia, but I didn't give these things for free. It won't be too late to give them to you if you agree to the conditions."
