Wu Dao and Shi Qingqing finished walking the relatives of the Wu family, and then took a car to Shi Qingqing's house, and walked the relatives of the Shi family in two days, and then returned to their home.

More than a week later, Fangzhou College reopened. Shi Qingqing's due date is April 15, and Wu Dao and Shi Qingqing are looking forward to this day.

After entering April, Shi Qingqing's activities became more and more inconvenient. Wu Dao and Shi Qingqing have no experience, although Qicheng County is not too far from Fangzhou City, it is still not very convenient to go back and forth, so Shi Qingqing called his mother to help.

In the early morning of April 10, Shi Qingqing's stomach had labor pains, which became more and more frequent after that. Shi Qingqing's mother knew that this was a precursor to childbirth. As soon as the morning dawned, Wu Dao and his mother-in-law helped Shi Qingqing downstairs, and then took a taxi to the hospital.

For the convenience of taking care of him, Wu Dao booked a single room for Shi Qingqing. After being admitted to the ward, Shi Qingqing was still in pain for a while. Wu Dao went to buy breakfast and came back, the three of them ate it, and continued to wait for the moment of delivery.

When it was almost eleven o'clock, Shi Qingqing still had not given birth to a child, so the doctor recommended a caesarean section. After Wu Dao signed, Shi Qingqing entered the operating room for a caesarean section.

After Shi Qingqing entered the operating room, her mother returned to the teacher's apartment of Fangzhou College to stew soup and prepare to give Shi Qingqing to drink, and Wu Dao was the only one left outside the operating room.

Although the caesarean section operation was very mature, Wu Dao was still very nervous and uneasy outside the operating room, and at this moment he had forgotten that the child in Shi Qingqing's belly was not related to him.

When it was close to twelve o'clock, Shi Qingqing's operation was over, and the doctor came out of the operating room and said to Wu Dao:

"The mother and son are safe, and the child weighs six pounds and eight taels."

After listening to the doctor's words, Wu Dao's hanging heart finally fell. He immediately called his mother-in-law and Li Mei and told him about the birth of the child. After getting the news, Li Mei immediately went to the bus station in Qicheng County and took a car to Fangzhou.

Shi Qingqing and the child were sent back to the ward. At this time, although Shi Qingqing was relatively weak, he was in good spirits and very sober. She looked at the child, then at Wu Dao, and said:

"Our child was born, and you see how cute he looks."

Wu Dao's mood was originally joyful, but after listening to Shi Qingqing's words, he suddenly realized that this newborn child was not his.

After more than half a year of waiting, Wu Dao thought that he was ready to be a father, but when the child really appeared in front of him, his heart was mixed.

Wu Dao thought that he had lived for thirty-four years and already had two sons, one was his godson who was not related by blood, and the other was his own son in the eyes of outsiders, but in fact he was not related by blood, and he couldn't help but feel a little sad in his heart.

Seeing that Wu Dao didn't speak, Shi Qingqing said to him again:

"Wu Dao, you are knowledgeable, give our children a name."

Wu Dao looked at the child and said:

"Let's call it Wu Yisheng."

"Which one is it, which one is born?"

"It is also the one who 'learns and learns, and does not say', and life is the life of life."

"Or are you knowledgeable, this is a good name." Shi Qingqing looked at the child again and said, "Baby, you have a name, you will be called Wu Yisheng in the future." ”

After a while, Shi Qingqing's mother returned to the hospital, and the three of them began to eat. Shi Qingqing told her mother about the child's name, and Shi Qingqing's mother also said:

"Wu Yisheng's name is good."

An hour later, Shi Qingqing's father came to the hospital. At three o'clock in the afternoon, Li Mei called Wu Dao, saying that she had arrived at the Fangzhou bus station and asked which bus she should take to the hospital.

This time she came to Fangzhou, it was the first time Li Mei left Qicheng County, she was a thrifty person, even if it was such a big event as the birth of her grandson, she was reluctant to take a taxi.

Wu Dao said to Li Mei on the phone: "Mom, don't move at the bus station, I'd better go over and pick you up." He said to Shi Qingqing's parents, "Dad, Mom, my mother has arrived at the station, she is coming to Fangzhou for the first time, I am afraid that she will not find a place and get lost, so I will pick her up." ”

"Go ahead, we're here." Shi Qingqing's mother said.

"Just go." Shi Qingqing's father also said.

Wu Dao left the hospital, took a taxi to the bus station, picked up Li Mei, and returned to the hospital the same way. On the way, Li Mei said to Wu Dao:

"How expensive is it to take a taxi back and forth, we should take the bus."

"Mom, don't care about the money." Wu Dao said.

"You kid."

"Mom, have you eaten?"

"I was eating when you called me. After making the call, I quickly finished my meal and came by car. ”

On the way, Wu Dao told Li Mei about naming the child.

The taxi soon arrived at the hospital, and Wu Dao took Li Mei to the ward. Li Mei and Shi Qingqing's parents met and greeted each other. Shi Qingqing's father said to Li Mei:

"Didn't the eldest brother come?"

"He didn't come, my father-in-law is not in good health, and he can't do without people." Li Mei said.

Li Mei came to the bedside to watch the child, and Shi Qingqing's parents also came over. At this time, Wu Yisheng, who was sleeping, woke up and opened his eyes. Li Mei looked at Wu Yisheng and said:

"This kid is good-looking."

"Sister, who do you think the child looks like? Qingqing and her father both think that the child looks more like Qingqing. You see, the nose, mouth, eyebrows, and eyes are all very similar to Qingqing. Shi Qingqing's mother said to Li Mei.

Li Mei looked at Wu Yisheng carefully, and his appearance really couldn't find anything similar to Wu Dao. But if you want to find what a baby has in common with any adult, as long as you look carefully, you can always find it, and Li Mei finally found the common ground between Wu Yisheng and Wu Dao:

"Qingqing's eyes are small, and this child's eyes look like Qingqing's, but they are bigger than Qingqing's. There are also ears, Qingqing's ears are small, and this child's ears are big. In both places, they are inherited from the trail. ”

Shi Qingqing and her parents heard Li Mei say this, and they also began to pay attention to Wu Yisheng's eyes and ears, and the more they looked at it, the more they felt that they were very similar to Wu Dao's. Shi Qingqing said to Wu Dao:

"Wu Dao, look, are the child's eyes and ears very similar to yours?"

Wu Dao looked at Wu Yisheng's eyes and ears and said:

"It's quite like." But what he thought in his heart was: this child is not my biological son at all, how can there be something in common?

"Big ears are a blessing, and when you grow up, you will definitely be like Wu Dao, you can go to graduate school and become a university teacher." Shi Qingqing's father said.

"Yes, with Wu Dao educating children, it will definitely be no worse in the future." Shi Qingqing's mother also said.

Shi Qingqing looked at his child, listened to people's praise, and was extremely happy, so he asked Wu Dao to be next to Wu Yisheng and carefully observe their father and son, so as to find their common ground.

At this time, Shi Qingqing had completely forgotten that the father and son were not related by blood.

Two days later, Shi Qingqing was discharged from the hospital and returned home. Li Mei stayed there for two days and then returned to Qicheng County, and Shi Qingqing's mother stayed behind to continue to take care of Shi Qingqing's confinement. And Wu Dao completely obeyed the orders of the two mothers, and did whatever he wanted, and did what he wanted.

Shi Qingqing's mother felt more and more that Wu Dao's uncle was looking for a good job, and Shi Qingqing also felt that she had married the right person.

A month passed quickly, and Shi Qingqing was able to move around freely. Shi Qingqing has no job and specializes in watching children at home, and Wu Dao has more free time, it is enough for two people to take care of Wu Yisheng, and Shi Qingqing's mother returned to her home.

At the end of June, Wu Guodong graduated from Fangzhou College. Zhang Chunmei specially took him to visit Wu Dao's home, and brought a lot of gifts, both adults and children.

After Zhang Chunmei saw Wu Yisheng, she also said that the child grew up well, and he would definitely be promising when he grew up. After Zhang Chunmei and Shi Qingqing said a few words, Shi Qingqing wanted to breastfeed the child, and Wu Dao went to the living room with Zhang Chunmei and Wu Guodong.

Wu Dao beckoned Zhang Chunmei and Wu Guodong to sit on the sofa, poured water for them, and the three of them chatted. Wu Dao said:

"Gordon has graduated now, I'm too busy during this time, and I don't bother to ask, what kind of job did Gordon find?"

"I'm going to work at the Civil Affairs Bureau of Qicheng County." Wu Guodong said.

"I have to thank you for this, if it wasn't for your help at the beginning, Wu Guodong wouldn't have been able to go to undergraduate, he couldn't go to undergraduate, now it's related, it's not easy to enter government institutions and institutions, in today's society, without education, you can't do anything." Zhang Chunmei said to Wu Dao.

"Is Gordon a civil servant who took the exam?" Wu Dao said.

"I took the civil service exam, and I took both the national and provincial exams, but I didn't pass it." Wu Guodong said.

"Teacher Wu, you may not know much about the situation in the county, civil servants must take the exam and pass before they can be admitted, which is organized by the province. Guodong is not a civil servant establishment, but a career establishment.

Although the public institutions in the county also have to take the exam, the county has the final say from beginning to end, and as long as the academic qualifications meet the requirements, everything else is easy to say.

Your eldest brother Wu Bingyi is now the director of the Bureau of Commerce, and the children of the director of the Civil Affairs Bureau of our county are also graduating from college this year.

The exam still has to be tested, that is, it is a formality. Zhang Chunmei said to Wu Dao.

"That's okay, Guodong will work hard in the future." Wu Dao said. He remembered that since the expansion of the university, there have been more and more graduates year by year, and it has become more and more difficult to find employment, and he really wants to complain for those graduates who have no relationship, but he is Wu Guodong's godfather, and Wu Guodong's relationship is the university that he went to through him, what can he say?

"Be sure to do a good job." Wu Guodong said.

"Teacher Wu, we are here to watch the children this time. Now that the child has seen it, you are also busy here, and we have to go back to Qicheng, so we will not sit anymore. Wait a minute, you and your brother and sister will talk. Zhang Chunmei said to Wu Dao.

"That'll do. We go back to Qicheng every year, and we see each other a lot. Be careful and stay safe when driving on the road. Wu Dao said.

"See you back in Qicheng." Zhang Chunmei said.

As soon as Wu Dao sent Zhang Chunmei and Wu Guodong away, Shi Qingqing walked out of the bedroom, and she said to Wu Dao:

"The child fell asleep after feeding. Are the two of them gone? ”

"Just left." Wu Dao said.

"Your godson Wu Guodong is really good, he still came to see us after graduation. What will he do in the future? ”

"Speaking of which, Wu Guodong is a second-generation official, his parents are both leading cadres, and they entrusted him to work at the Qicheng County Civil Affairs Bureau."

"That's nice. Wu Yichang grew up, and asked them to find a relationship and go to work in the agency. ”

After listening to Shi Qingqing's words, Wu Dao didn't know what to say for a while. After a pause, he said:

"Wu Yisheng was born less than two months ago, and it is too early to talk about work now. When he grows up, he will do whatever he likes. The most important thing in human life is one's own ability, not relationships. ”

"You're right, if you teach a child, he must be very capable when he grows up, and he can also be a university teacher."

The day after Wu Guodong graduated and left school, the principal of the secondary school informed Wu Dao that Shi Qingqing's graduation certificate had come down. Wu Dao went to get his graduation certificate back and said a lot of words of thanks to the principal.

Seeing her secondary school graduation certificate, Shi Qingqing was very happy, and she said to Wu Dao:

"Wu Dao, you are really capable, I married the right person. In the future, I will be a real secondary school degree. ”

When he first got his graduation certificate, Wu Dao felt relieved, and after listening to Shi Qingqing's words, he felt desolate in his heart. He forced a smile and said:

"Yes, you will have a secondary school degree in the future."

After Shi Qingqing was confined, although the child was mainly taken care of by her and Wu Dao, Li Mei and Shi Qingqing's mother would still come to see it from time to time, and Wu Yang also took the time to visit.

Day after day, Wu Dao gradually got used to being a father, and when he came home from work every day, the first thing he did was to see his children, and sometimes he would buy toys on the road to take home to Wu Yisheng.

Wu Yisheng also seems to like Wu Dao, and he is very happy every time he sees him.

Adults gathered around Wu Yisheng and often called him "Dad", "Mom", "Grandma", "Grandma" and other titles. When Wu Yisheng was more than seven months old, he called the first person, although the voice was very vague, but he could hear that it was "Dad".

Hearing this title, Wu Dao's eyes were wet for a while, and for the first time, he felt that he was really a father.
