The little guy, who did not know that he had been born too heavy, causing his family status to drop rapidly, was acutely aware of a hint of danger. He could not help but shiver in his sleep and kick his little feet hard.
Although Uncle Zhang did not stay with Huo Chenhuan and the others to wait for the birth of the child, he did not sleep much the entire night.
When the sky turned bright in the morning, he received a call from Huo Chenhuan. After Uncle Zhang’s joy, he immediately got someone to stew a large pile of light soup and water. It was delivered to the two of them at eight or nine o’clock.
Huo Chenhuan was busy feeding Su Yayan porridge. Uncle Zhang and Zheng Qianyang were discussing softly around the little baby in the crib.
“The young master has Young Madam’s eyes and mouth.”
“His nose is similar to Chenhuan’s, but the shape of his face looks a little like brother-in-law’s.”
The two of them gathered together and chatted about the little fellow’s appearance. Su Yayan could not help but laugh as she listened.
“Are they telling the truth? Does the baby look a little like your father?”
Huo Chenhuan was also a little confused and said uncertainly, “Maybe.”
Other than thinking that the baby’s eyes were similar to Su Yayan’s, Cheng Xiuqin had said everything about the baby’s nose and mouth. As for the shape of the baby’s face…
The couple stared at each other for a long time before finally giving up on probing.
Even if the two adults could lower their voices, the sleeping little one moved his limbs and pouted, about to cry.
Zheng Qianyang was shocked. He took a step back reflexively and exclaimed, “Old Zhang, Old Zhang, he’s going to cry. He’s going to cry.”
“Pfft…” This was the first time Su Yayan had seen Zheng Qianyang so flustered. She could not help but laugh.
Zheng Qianyang also realized that he had overreacted and looked embarrassed.
He had never been able to do anything about such a soft little baby. Even when Huo Chenhuan was young, he had only dared to carry him back then when he could crawl and walk.
Uncle Zhang, on the other hand, helped Madam Huo take care of Huo Chenhuan when he was still an infant. Seeing that the child was about to cry, he immediately carried the baby from the crib and coaxed him skillfully.
The little baby whimpered twice and was coaxed by him. He looked around with his big eyes that were filled with tears and looked curious about everything.
The few people in the ward were surprised to see this.
“I did not expect Uncle Zhang to have the ability to take care of a child.”
When Uncle Zhang heard Su Yayan’s words, he immediately puffed out his chest proudly and said with a faint smile, “Madam was not in good health when she gave birth to Young Master. During that period of time, Sir basically accompanied Madam. Young Master was taken care of by me and another retired maid.”
Su Yayan looked at Huo Chenhuan. “Then I’ll have to trouble you next.”
Uncle Zhang’s face lit up. “Don’t worry, Young Madam. I’ll definitely take good care of Little Young Master.”
Zheng Qianyang was also a little envious when he saw Uncle Zhang carrying the baby. However, when he saw the little guy’s tender appearance, he controlled his dangerous thoughts and coughed lightly. “Have you given him a name?”
“Yes, his real name is Huo Xing’an, and his nickname is Little Star. Yanyan’s grandfather named him.”
Zheng Qianyang looked regretful. If it was Su Yayan’s parents, he could still fight for them. Su Yayan’s grandfather was of a higher seniority than him.
Huo Chenhuan saw the change in Zheng Qianyang’s expression and was once again glad that he had foreseen this.
Mr. Su had just asked this question in the morning. All of them wanted to name their child, so it was inappropriate for anyone to name them. Only Old Master Cheng was senior enough to suppress them.
