Recently, Lin Xiao Yu was filled with joy as she playfully named her newborn grandson "Orange." As the family gathered together, Lin Xiao Yu gently held her grandson, a radiant smile on her face. She said, "This little one is Orange! Do you know? I love eating oranges during the day; every time I do, it brings me so much happiness. I hope this little guy can bring our family as much sweetness in the future."
The child's full name, Lu Yichen, was a thoughtful choice by Lu Shen. With a loving gaze fixed on his grandson, Lu Shen slowly spoke, "I pondered for a long time before settling on Lu Yichen. 'Yi' signifies vitality and brilliance; I hope this child will be full of energy in the future. 'Chen' represents the stars, wishing that he can shine brightly in the sky of humanity and become a pride for our family." The family nodded in agreement, praising his choice.
The birth of the child felt like a joyful spring rain, showering warmth into every family member's heart. Song Ying watched the rosy face of the baby in the swaddle and smiled broadly, her eyes squinting with delight. "Oh my, this little one is so handsome! He will surely have great fortune in the future!"
Meanwhile, Lin Wufeng could no longer contain his affection for his grandson. He quickly approached and carefully took the baby from Lin Xiao Yu's arms, holding him tightly. "My dear grandson," he murmured, "I've been waiting for you to arrive. From now on, Grandpa will be with you every day." As he spoke, he gently rocked his arms back and forth, his eyes filled with endless tenderness and love. The baby occasionally waved his tiny fists and cooed softly, creating a warm scene that felt like the sun on a winter day, enveloping the entire home in happiness and joy brought by new life.
During her confinement period, Lin Xiao Yu was still recovering physically, but her emotions became increasingly sensitive amidst the baby's cries and her own discomfort. One day, for reasons unknown, the baby fussed excessively; after feeding him, he cried again and nothing seemed to soothe him. Exhausted, Lin Xiao Yu held the baby close to her chest with helplessness in her eyes as tears streamed down her cheeks. "Mom," she sobbed, "am I not cut out to be a mother? Why does he always cry? I feel so helpless."
Hearing her voice, Song Ying hurried into the room. Upon seeing Lin Xiao Yu's weary face and tearful expression, her heart ached with compassion. She quickly sat beside Lin Xiao Yu on the bed and gently wiped away her tears with tender hands before holding hers tightly. "Dear daughter," she whispered softly, "don't say that. You've just gone through such a huge ordeal giving birth; your body is still recovering. Taking care of a baby is not easy; it's something every mother experiences—it's not that you're unfit."
Song Ying gently patted Lin Xiao Yu's hand with love and concern in her eyes as she continued, "Look at you bringing this child into the world—that's already a tremendous effort. Babies are small and can't speak; crying is their way of expressing needs. We’ll figure out why he’s crying together. When I had Lu Zean, I was just as flustered—probably even more so than you!" As she spoke, a nostalgic smile appeared on Song Ying's lips as she tried to comfort Lin Xiao Yu with her own experiences.
Rising from her seat, Song Ying picked up a small blanket from nearby and carefully wrapped it around the baby before cradling him gently while softly saying, "Be good now; don’t trouble your mommy too much; she's had a tough time." Before long, the baby's cries began to subside. Song Ying placed him back in his crib and turned to sit beside Lin Xiao Yu again. She wrapped her arms around her daughter like she would comfort a child, gently patting her back while saying, "Sweetheart, don’t worry; everything will be alright. Right now, your most important task is to take care of yourself. If anything happens, remember that Mom is here for you—I’ll always help you."
With Song Ying's comforting words, Lin Xiao Yu gradually calmed down. Leaning against her mother's warmth and support, she nodded gently as soft afternoon sunlight streamed through the window. Lu Zean quietly closed the bedroom door to avoid disturbing Lin Xiao Yu and the baby who were resting inside. He gazed at their peaceful faces—the large one and the small one—and felt an overwhelming sense of tenderness and affection wash over him. He secretly resolved to prepare a surprise for Lin Xiao Yu to ease her postnatal fatigue.
Lu Zean tiptoed into the kitchen and carefully took out some fresh fruits from the refrigerator: bright red apples, sunny oranges, and deep purple grapes. He washed them clean and placed them on the cutting board before skillfully slicing them into even pieces while murmuring to himself: "Lin Xiao Yu likes them sweet; let’s cut more apple pieces." Next, he retrieved some yogurt from the cupboard and slowly poured it into a glass before layering the chopped fruits on top—creating a colorful and nutritious fruit yogurt salad.
After preparing everything, Lu Zean returned to the bedroom and gently called out to Lin Xiao Yu: "Darling, wake up! I have a surprise for you." Rubbing her sleepy eyes awake with confusion written across her face, she asked: "What is it?" With a smile on his face, Lu Zean guided her into the living room where she was met with an array of fruit salad and fresh flowers adorning the table—her eyes instantly sparkled with surprise and gratitude.
At that moment, it seemed as if the baby sensed his mother's joy; he waved his tiny fists in his crib while cooing happily as if cheering for this delightful surprise. Lu Zean walked over to pick up the baby gently and said to Lin Xiao Yu with a smile: "Look! The baby knows something good is happening today; he's cheering you on! My dear one, you've worked hard during this time; everything here is prepared just for you—I hope you like it. Enjoy your fruit while looking at these flowers; it should lift your spirits."
Lin Xiao Yu's eyes glistened with tears as she leaned against Lu Zean's embrace softly saying: "Thank you so much! This is truly the best gift I've ever received. With you and our baby by my side, I feel incredibly happy." At that moment, sunlight poured over them as warmth filled their living room—a cozy atmosphere enveloped them all as if time stood still for this beautiful expression of love—a moment filled with emotion and solace.
