When Cao Qiu and Sun Zhuzi arrived, they were surprised to learn Gu'er had already given birth.
Cao Qiu hadn't been visiting as often recently. Two months ago, Wei Hong had also given birth, but it was another daughter, dashing Cao Qiu's hopes for another grandson.
Even though it wasn't a grandson, Wei Hong had fallen out with her own family, so Cao Qiu stayed home to care for her daughter-in-law during her postpartum confinement. This moved Wei Hong deeply. She had always thought her mother-in-law was dissatisfied with her and treated her poorly. After giving birth to a daughter, she'd expected to be ignored or criticized. To her surprise, her mother-in-law took excellent care of her, buying nutritious food to help her recover. Wei Hong felt she had been wrong about many things in the past. During her confinement, she resolved to live a good life with Sun Jiasheng from now on and to treat her mother-in-law better.
