Chapter 165: Signs of Awakening
Yuan Xi laughed. She knew that the old lady of the Qian family was not feeling well, so it was wrong for her to laugh out loud.
But Qian Yiren’s methods are really disgusting.
Qian Yiren must have known that Huo Shiyan's wife had just given birth, and the old lady was really unwell. Couldn't the Qian family's bodyguards and nannies take a sick old lady to the hospital? Was it necessary to trouble a childhood friend whose wife was still in confinement?
After Huo Shiyan hung up the phone, he asked Yuan Xi, "Do you want to wash your hair?"
Yuan Xi nodded and said, "Okay."
Yuan Xi used to wash her hair almost every day, but after giving birth, she only washed her hair once, and that was only after she was sure that both Grandma Huo and Grandma Shi were not coming over that day.
It is very troublesome to wash your hair during confinement. The shampoo is specially made by the confinement nanny using mugwort.
Seeing that the wormwood water prepared by the confinement nanny had reached about the right temperature, Huo Shiyan helped Yuan Xi wash her hair, his fingers moving gently.
Yuan Xi felt that Huo Shiyan's movements of washing her hair were more comfortable than those of a confinement nanny.
"It's a pity that Mr. Huo doesn't open a hair salon."
Huo Shiyan chuckled when he heard Yuan Xi's words, "After all, I have been practicing since I was a child."
Yuan Xi was stunned for a moment, and Huo Shiyan chuckled, "Have you forgotten that I washed your hair when you were a child?"
It took Yuan Xi a while to remember that she did have that hair. Her hair was long and thick when she was a child. When she was not working overtime like crazy, little Yuan Xi still had the most hair.
When my mother was busy with work, washing her own hair was a big project for her. It always took her a long time to blow-dry her hair, and it was not blown evenly.
There were a few times when Huo Shiyan came to play with her, and when she was washing her hair, he would help her wash it.
No wonder when he met Huo Shiyan when he grew up, he was so skilled at blow-drying himself.
"remember."
Yuan Xi felt a lot more relaxed after washing her hair.
Shi Zhen and Huo Ting also came to see Yuan Xi on New Year's Eve.
After all, Shi Zhen and Huo Ting had just returned from the funeral home a few days ago, so they dared not visit Yuan Xi or the two children.
Huo Ting sighed to Huo Shiyan and said, "Fortunately, the New Year is coming soon. We can put the Fu'an Group's affairs on hold for a while. After the New Year, the Fu'an Group may have to start a new round of board meetings and determine the president of the Fu'an Group."
Huo Shiyan said: "I hope Yixian can wake up as soon as possible."
Shi Zhen looked at Yuan Xi, her face was full of weakness, Shi Zhen said: "Giving birth to a child will greatly damage your vitality, not to mention you gave birth to two, you should have a good rest during this period."
Yuan Xi nodded and said, "Yes."
Perhaps because there were four confinement nannies and Yuan Xi didn't need to take care of the child, Yuan Xi actually felt that her physical strength recovered quite quickly.
She is now able to go up and down the stairs without the elevator. Except that she still cannot go out, there is actually no difference between observing the confinement period and not observing the confinement period.
Fortunately, the Chinese New Year is approaching, and Liang Suisui, Chen Yuan and Shi Lei are all on vacation. They can come and accompany Yuan Xi every day, and Yuan Xi won’t feel bored.
Plus, there are two children. Although they don’t interact much, Yuan Xi won’t get tired of watching them for an entire afternoon.
The day before Spring Festival.
Yang Ying and Chu Qing also came to Yunsen Court to celebrate the New Year with Yuan Xi and Huo Shiyan.
At the dinner table, only Chu Qing and Huo Shiyan were talking about some topics in the financial circle regarding the energy industry.
Yang Ying also asked some questions about her that showed concern for her, and Yuan Xi's ears were almost callused from hearing them.
They are obviously the closest parents, but they also feel distant from each other. After Chu Qing and Yang Ying left, Yuan Xi retracted his professional smile and actually felt relieved.
Huo Shiyan saw Yuan Xi relieved and held her in his arms, "Time will heal everything."
Yuan Xi can only rely on time to slowly make up for the lost feelings...
But the Chu family is busy with work, Yuan Xi is also busy with work, and now they have two children. They are destined to be separated in the future, and it is not so easy to mend their relationship.
On New Year’s Eve, we will go to the Huo family’s old house for a dinner party.
Originally, because Yuan Xi was going to recuperate after childbirth, they suggested having a meal at Yunsen Court, but Yuan Xi had been recuperating for almost 20 days, so it was much more convenient than for an old man to travel. And when Huo Shiyan was decorating Yunsen Court, he did not consider a large round table for the whole family to have a meal. Most of the shops were closed during the New Year holidays, so it was not easy to buy a large round table.
Huo Shiyan wrapped Yuan Xi like a dumpling and put a thick hat on her. Then Huo Shiyan put a scarf on her to make sure that no wind could get into her body except her eyes. Then he took Yuan Xi to the garage and drove to the Huo family's old house.
In the car, Yuan Xi asked the driver to lower the temperature of the air conditioner. She showed her face and said to Huo Shiyan, "There's no need to be so fully armed, right?"
In fact, when we get to the old house, we can go directly into the house from the garage, and there will be no time for the wind to blow.
Huo Shiyan said: "It is necessary. I don't want you to have a headache then."
The Huo family's old house is very lively today.
When Yuan Xi went there, he saw Gu Hanchen taking Gu Ying and Xiao Shihuo playing with firecrackers.
"Why is Gu Hanchen here?" Yuan Xi looked at Huo Shiyan.
Huo Shiyan said: "Gu Nuan and Xiao Yun went to the Middle East. Gu Ying and my aunt are still a little unfamiliar, so Gu Hanchen came with Gu Ying."
Yuan Xi smiled and said, "It's good to have a younger brother. Someone can help take care of the children."
Huo Shiyan said: "Well, it seems that Shihuo is not completely useless."
After entering the garage, Yuan Xi went into the house and was finally able to take off his down jacket, scarf and hat.
"grandparents."
"Grandpa and grandma."
Yuan Xi greeted several elderly people who were talking in front of the table.
Grandma Shi took Yuan Xi's hand and sat down, "Where's the child?"
Yuan Xi said: "My parents are in a car at the back."
As soon as Yuan Xi finished speaking, Shi Zhen and Huo Ting came over, each carrying a baby basket.
Several elderly people couldn't wait to see the two children.
Grandpa Huo asked, "You haven't chosen names for the two children yet, have you?"
Yuan Xi looked at Huo Shiyan, and Huo Shiyan said, "No matter what you call it, Yuan Xi always feels bad."
When Yuan Xi heard what Huo Shiyan said, she did not argue. Perhaps she cared too much about the two children, and she was always dissatisfied with any name they gave them.
Xiaoshihuo came in and said, "The two babies are named Sero and Baoli."
Shi Zhen touched Xiaohuo's little face and said, "My Huohuo is so great. He even has a name."
Huo Shiyan sneered as he listened to Shi Zhen's praise for Xiao Shihuo.
Yuan Xi held Huo Shiyan's hand. She and Huo Shiyan actually had the same relationship with their parents, but she was luckier than Huo Shiyan because she had adoptive parents.
Xiao Xiaohuo looked up and said, "Mom, can we just call them Cero and Baoli?"
Huo Shiyan frowned and said, “No, if you want the children to be named Sero and Baoli, you can give birth to them yourself.”
"I'm a boy, how can I give birth to a child?" Xiao Shihuo tilted his head and said, "Only girls can give birth to children, and my sister is a girl. I can't give birth to a baby."
Everyone smiled softly when they heard Xiaoshihuo's childish words.
"Time delay."
Hearing the sound coming from the front door, Shi Zhen looked at Qian Yiren who was standing at the front door and said, "Close the door quickly, there must be no wind in the house!"
The large living room of the Huo family's old house faces the main gate, which is very majestic and more than three meters high. As soon as the gate is opened, the cold wind blows in.
The Huo family usually came in through the side door next door. This imposing door was usually locked and was only opened during dinner parties and festivals.
Today is New Year's Eve. According to the rules of the Huo family, the door needs to be opened in the morning for ancestor worship, so it was unlocked and not locked again. Unexpectedly, Qian Yiren pushed the door open from the outside.
Qian Yiren hurriedly said: "Shi Yan, my brother is showing signs of waking up."
