In This Life, I Will Extremely Pamper My Short-Lived Husband-Chapter 226: Is the Surname Xu Not Good?

Xu Zhen nodded his head, "Alright, take good care of my granddaughter. I’ll come to see Sui Sui again tomorrow."

"Okay," Xu Jinzhi agreed somewhat helplessly.

After Xu Zhen left, Xie Yanchuan had Xu Jinzhi sit up and then prepared to feed her himself.

Xu Jinzhi was a bit embarrassed, "I can do it myself."

Xie Yanchuan hesitated but seeing that Xu Jinzhi was in quite good condition, he let her feed herself.

Xie Yanchuan and Tuantuan hadn’t eaten either, and since there was a lot of food brought over from home, Xie Yanchuan called Tuantuan to come over and eat together.

Tuantuan could already eat by himself, though his movements might not be so graceful.

As he ate, grains of rice stuck to the corners of his mouth, he then turned to look at Sui Sui, who was lying in the crib, "Sister isn’t eating?"

Xie Yanchuan explained, "Sui Sui is still young and can’t eat yet. She needs to grow up before she can eat."

"Like how big I am?" Tuantuan asked again.

"Yes, when you were as big as you are now, you could eat," Xie Yanchuan said.

Tuantuan didn’t ask any more questions and ate his meal earnestly and seriously.

After the meal was over, Xie Yanchuan wanted to send Tuantuan back first, but Tuantuan didn’t want to go, insisting on staying to keep company.

Xie Yanchuan hesitated for a moment but ultimately agreed.

Not long after, Sui Sui started to fuss about, obviously having woken up. Xie Yanchuan quickly went over to pick her up.

When such small children cry, a parent’s first response is to check if the baby has soiled their diaper or is hungry.

Xie Yanchuan’s movements were very practiced, clearly having gotten over the initial discomfort.

Xie Yanchuan had taken care of Tuantuan single-handedly from the start, and now taking care of Sui Sui posed no pressure for him. He quickly settled Sui Sui and brought her back next to Xu Jinzhi.

Xu Jinzhi stayed in the hospital for two days and then went home.

A newborn changes rapidly, and when Sui Sui was born and first held by the nurse, not even Xie Yanchuan, as the biological father with a bias filter, could deny it.

Even when the elders said Sui Sui was cute, Xie Yanchuan couldn’t see it.

But after two days, Sui Sui had already changed a lot, her once red and swollen body now turned white, her eyes were big, and you could even make out her double eyelids.

These two days, there were always people coming to the house, mainly to visit Xu Jinzhi, but she couldn’t cope with all her aunts and relatives; instead, it was He Shuying who helped to deal with them.

Fortunately, they were just making a token visit and would not propose to come again, which let Xu Jinzhi breathe a sigh of relief.

After the friends and relatives stopped visiting, Xu Jinzhi’s life regained its tranquility, though perhaps too much so.

It was hard for someone like Xu Jinzhi, used to working, to adapt to this suddenly.

But this life was to continue for a whole month, and Xu Jinzhi’s attempt to shorten her confinement was rejected by everyone.

So for a whole month, a restless Xu Jinzhi felt like she was going to break down.

On the day it ended, Xu Jinzhi took a deep breath of relief, as if she’d finally emerged from "prison."

After the confinement, Xu Jinzhi’s first task was to take Sui Sui for vaccinations and Tuantuan for a check-up, since in half a month, it would be time for little student Tuantuan to go to school.

When they went for the vaccinations, Sui Sui initially didn’t realize what was happening. Once she did, she instantly started bawling.

Xu Jinzhi couldn’t soothe her, nor could Xie Yanchuan, that little face covered in tears really made one’s heart shatter just by looking at it.

In the end, it was Tuantuan lying beside Sui Sui to comfort her, and it actually worked to calm Sui Sui down.

Xu Jinzhi didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

Following that, they took Tuantuan for a health checkup, and by the time it was over, the whole morning had passed by.

They had lunch outside at midday, and after finishing their meal, Xu Jinzhi continued shopping.

Xu Jinzhi had never been fond of shopping, but after being cooped up for a month, she was suffocatingly repressed and now she truly found joy in aimlessly wandering around.

It wasn’t until Tuantuan grew tired that Xu Jinzhi finally decided to drag her family back home.

The next day.

Today was Sui Sui’s full moon celebration, all arranged by He Shuying. Xu Jinzhi only needed to show up with Tuantuan.

"Hey, what’s going on? The kid has the Xu surname?" A woman nearby asked with some confusion.

The man beside her smirked cryptically, "Is there anything wrong with having the Xu surname?"

Besides people familiar with the family who knew Sui Sui’s full name, outsiders only found out her full name on the day of the full moon celebration.

Naturally, they also learned that Sui Sui had the Xu surname!

Honestly, everyone was quite surprised; they did not expect the Xie Family to be willing to let the child take the Xu Family’s surname.

But some people felt it was no big deal—after all, it was just a daughter.

And there was another important point: the Xu Family only had Xu Jinzhi as a child, and she would inherit the Xu Family in the future. Having a daughter with the Xu surname, what could be wrong with that?

However, there were members of the Xu Family present today, and Xu Zhen did indeed only have one daughter, Xu Jinzhi, but this didn’t mean he had no other relatives.

Those people had once coveted the Xu Group because Xu Jinzhi was a daughter but were frightened off by Xu Zhen’s thunderous methods.

But some people still harbored ambitions, contemplating the day they could take the Xu Group for themselves.

Now knowing that Xu Jinzhi had a daughter who also bore the Xu name, they were naturally displeased.

Yet they could only be unhappy in their hearts; aside from that, they were powerless.

Xu Jinzhi, of course, was unaware of these twisted thoughts of outsiders, and she didn’t want to know.

Xu Jinzhi saw that Xie Yanchuan had been holding Sui Sui for quite a while and walked over to ask, "Would you like me to hold her for a bit?"

Xie Yanchuan shook his head, "I’ve got her; it’s fine."

"Aren’t you tired?" Although Sui Sui was still small, maintaining one position for a while, Xu Jinzhi thought, would still be tiring.

But Xie Yanchuan just shook his head, and since he insisted, Xu Jinzhi didn’t say anything more.

On this day, little Sui Sui received many gifts, the most valuable of which was ten percent of the Xu Group’s shares.

People present were shocked, although they all understood what it meant for the child to have the Xu surname, the direct allocation of such a significant shareholding still surprised everyone.

Xu Jinzhi, watching Xu Zhen holding Sui Sui with such a cherished expression, said somewhat sourly, "Do I have no place in your heart anymore now?"

Xu Zhen didn’t even glance at Xu Jinzhi, "It’s good that you know."

Xu Jinzhi was left speechless; she regretted asking.

Sui Sui’s full moon celebration concluded smoothly, but Xu Jinzhi wasn’t in a hurry to return to work; instead, she began preparing for Tuantuan to start kindergarten.
