Chapter 604: Dr. Ruan Is a Devil
Chapter 604: Dr. Ruan Is a Devil
Jiang Father arranged for Uncle Feng to pick them up, driving Jiang Dong’s jeep.
By the time they arrived back in the city, it was already five in the evening.
Dinner was at the Jiang family home. Jiang Father had called ahead from the capital to ask Aunt Feng to prepare the meal and specified the dishes.
Aunt Feng went to the dock at four in the afternoon to buy the freshest seafood, preparing a full table of seafood dishes that Jiang Xia, Jiang Mother, and Zhang Fuyan loved. There was only one dish that Jiang Dong and Zhao Chenglei liked.
Jiang Dong said: "I’m as adaptable as my sister and dad!"
As long as they enjoyed it!
Before dinner, Jiang Xia and Zhao Chenglei gave the three children a bath so that they could go straight to bed when they returned home.
By the time they finished dinner at home, it was already 7:30 PM. Jiang Dong drove them back to their house and then took Zhang Fuyan to her grandmother’s house.
The next morning, Zhao Chenglei took Second Aunt to the bus station and made plans to meet in Sui City.
Second Aunt’s home wasn’t far from Sui City, so she could wait at the provincial bus station when it was time.
This time, Second Aunt could stay at home for half a month.
However, Jiang Xia and Zhao Chenglei had to return to the capital on the 5th. The Sui Trade Fair team would depart for Sui City by train on the 8th.
They needed to arrive early to prepare, but Jiang Xia didn’t have to. She would continue her classes until the 13th and then fly directly to Sui City.
The Sui Trade Fair started on the 15th.
After dropping off Second Aunt, Zhao Chenglei drove back home, picked up Jiang Xia, Jiang Mother, and Jiang Dong, and took the children to the hospital for a health check-up.
Zhao Chenglei had already made an appointment with Dr. Gao.
Dr. Gao had just finished her night shift and would wait for them before leaving. She would be on leave during the National Day holiday and wouldn’t return to work until the 6th.
Gao Jie was delighted to see the triplets. As soon as she took their little hands to check their pulses, they smiled at her with their mouths open, making sounds like "ah ah" as if greeting her.
"Ah, so happy to see me? Do you recognize me?"
Younger brother didn’t understand what Dr. Gao was saying, but he smiled again to show his appreciation.
Dr. Gao’s heart melted. She had been involved from the moment they were just embryos in the womb, hearing their heartbeats, watching them form, and then delivering them into the world. Now, they were plump and smiling, and she had invested a lot of effort in them, making them one of the few children she had spent the most time on.
Furthermore, triplets were rare and difficult to raise, so she naturally paid a lot of attention to them.
After checking their pulses, Gao Jie carried one of them to measure their height and weight.
Little sister smiled again when she was in Gao Jie’s arms, making baby sounds: "Ah!"
"Really cute! Are you calling grandma?"
Jiang Xia laughed, "Now the three children love to smile and talk to people."
Jiang Mother added, "After they eat and wake up, if you play with them and talk to them, they can keep up a conversation with you for up to ten minutes."
Gao Jie smiled, "They seem more like their mother, who is lively and outgoing."
Jiang Dong said, "Like me! My sister and her husband aren’t as lively or as talkative as I am. I’m the one who has the most patience to talk to them."
Dr. Gao laughed again, "Ha ha... It looks like the uncle is the best!"
"Of course!"
While laughing, Gao Jie continued to measure the height and weight of the three children.
"Great, their height and weight have caught up and are even a bit above average. Our three babies will definitely be tall in the future."
A nurse nearby heard and laughed, "Both parents are tall, so the children will definitely be tall too."
"Genetics play a role", Gao Jie nodded in agreement and then said to Jiang Xia, "The children are now no different from full-term singletons. Some singletons aren’t even as well-developed as our three babies, so they can start receiving vaccines. Should I vaccinate them now?"
Jiang Mother became nervous, "Can we wait a bit longer? When Xiaxia was in junior high school, she would run a fever after getting vaccinated."
Jiang Xia: "......"
"There’s no need to delay any longer. This vaccine can be administered right after birth. However, because our three babies are special cases, I postponed it. Now that you frequently travel between cities with them and they come into contact with many people, I recommend getting the vaccine as soon as possible."
Initially, the three babies were both premature and underweight, so Dr. Gao had postponed their vaccinations.
Now, their health has improved to the point where they can definitely receive the vaccine!
She hadn’t expected that they would be able to raise the babies so well in just three months, making them stronger and smarter than their peers.
At three months old, they already show signs of social awareness in their interactions.
Zhao Cheng Lei looked at Jiang Xia: "Should we go ahead with the vaccination? This is essential for the babies' well-being."
Jiang Xia also understood the importance of vaccination: "Let’s do it!"
They were about to attend the Sui Trade Fair, and the vaccine takes about a week to develop immunity.
Gao Jie had originally planned to vaccinate the three babies herself.
But a nurse rushed in, shouting: "Dr. Gao, hurry! There’s a newborn that needs immediate attention!"
Doctor Ruan was right behind the nurse, followed by Zhou Chengsen, who had driven over to take Jiang Xia and the others home.
She had just started her shift, bringing breakfast to Gao Jie and accompanying Zhou Chengsen to find Jiang Xia and the others.
Gao Jie immediately instructed Doctor Ruan and the nurse: "Doctor Ruan, you and the nurse can give the babies their vaccinations. Start with the Bcg today."
With that, she ran out, her steps quick and agile despite her age.
Doctor Ruan put down the breakfast, washed her hands, and put on gloves: "Sit down and unbutton the top two buttons of the babies' clothes. We’ll need to expose their upper left arms."
Zhou Chengsen remembered how painful Doctor Ruan’s injections could be!
He hesitated, about to suggest: "Maybe... let the nurse do it?"
But before he could finish, Doctor Ruan turned to look at him after washing her hands.
Zhou Chengsen, for some reason, instinctively changed his mind: "Maybe I can hold them?"
Jiang Mother was holding the elder brother, feeling a bit anxious: "Sure!"
She couldn’t bear to watch the babies get injections.
Zhou Chengsen: "......"
He really wanted to slap himself!
Why did he have to open his mouth?
Zhou Chengsen steeled himself and took the baby from Jiang Mother.
The little niece smiled and cooed at him: "Mmm-hmm~"
In that moment, Zhou Chengsen’s heart melted!
What an adorable smile!
"Xiao Bao, it’s Uncle Zhou. Do you remember Uncle Zhou?"
The little sister, hearing someone speak to her, immediately responded with coos and giggles.
This was usually the time when she would "chat" with her grandparents in the courtyard.
Today, many people had been passing her around, but no one had spoken to her, so she was eager to engage in conversation when someone held her.
The babies were in the arms of Jiang Dong and Zhao Cheng Lei. Knowing that Zhou Chengsen was afraid of needles, Jiang Xia asked: "Second Brother, do you want me to hold her? You can take pictures?"
Zhao Cheng Lei always brought a camera to record the babies’ health check-ups, and they already had two large photo albums for the babies at just three months old.
"No need", Zhou Chengsen replied without looking up, his eyes fixed on the little niece.
The little niece was so fond of him and kept talking to him, clearly not done yet.
If he handed her over now, she might be traumatized!
"Xiao Bao, you want Uncle Zhou to hold you, right?"
"Mmm-hmm."
Zhao Cheng Lei sat down with the elder brother, carefully unbuttoning his clothes and gently exposing his slightly chubby little arm.
He held the baby tightly, one hand steadying his arm to keep him still.
Doctor Ruan approached with a cotton swab dipped in alcohol and a syringe.
The elder brother smiled at Doctor Ruan.
Doctor Ruan smiled back at the elder brother, using the cotton swab to clean the muscle on his arm before inserting the needle.
The elder brother’s smile froze instantly!
It was as if someone had hit the pause button.
When the needle was pulled out, his little mouth trembled.
Then it trembled again.
He wanted to cry!
Zhou Chengsen held the little niece tightly, thinking:
Dr. Ruan is a devil! (End of Chapter)
