《IPWTVC[COMPLETED]》🌸 Chapter 153 - 154 🌸

Ye Zhen could take care of their son during the day, but Lu Beichuan felt it would be better to leave the nighttime care of their son to the nannies.
It’s said that a woman is a princess for a day, a queen for ten months, and a dowager empress for a month. Ye Zhen had now thoroughly experienced that saying.
Nothing needed to be said about their wedding. Regardless of Lu Beichuan's original motive for marrying her, he had truly let her experience being a princess for a day under the collective gaze of all the wedding guests. During the ten months of pregnancy, he had devoted himself to her and acquiesce to her every request.
As for the one-month recuperation period after she had given birth, Ye Zhen felt as Lu Beichuan was treating her like a pig that had to be fattened up. He would place every possible good food or supplement in front of her, strictly enforce the doctor's orders, and wouldn't let her do anything that was traditionally disallowed during the one-month recuperation period. He wouldn't even let her change Zhouzhou's diapers when he peed.
She lived an easy life with everything provided to her. All she had to do was open her mouth to eat. Truly, she lived like a retired dowager empress.
Sometimes, she would pinch the rolls of fat on her waist at night and sigh.
Her weight had skyrocketed after she had given birth, and she got quite plump. There were rolls of fat on her waist, and she felt quite dejected when she looked at herself. Every time she saw Lu Beichuan's toned and well-proportioned body when he took off his clothes, she felt jealous.
At the same time, Ye Zhen was satisfied to see that Zhouzhou was looking better with each passing day.
He had come out with purplish red wrinkled skin, a pointy head, and a flat face. His complexion had gradually turned fair and rosy. Under his family's meticulous care, he had gained baby fat on his face. His eyes had also opened, and he liked to stare at people with his big, round eyes. He wasn't scared of strangers and didn't fuss. He was so well-behaved that he didn't seem like a newly born baby. Compared to how he had fussily behaved at the hospital, he seemed like a completely different baby now.

After her one-month recuperation period was over, it was time to prepare for the baby's first lunar month birthday.
The Lu's had gotten into heated arguments over the baby's first lunar month birthday celebration.
Old Master Lu thought that since this was their family's newest member, then of course, they need to throw a big celebration. It would be best to invite all of their relatives and friends over and have a lively celebration.
However, Mrs. Lu felt that the Old Master Lu had been working himself too hard in the past period and needed to properly rest. It wouldn't be good for him to have another thing to worry about. They could celebrate the baby's first lunar month birthday at home.
Old Master Lu disagreed and Mrs. Lu wouldn't back down either. They both sulked about this, and neither side would compromise.
In the end, Lu Beichuan played mediator. With Old Master Lu's health as the reason and after much persuasion, they finally settled on having the birthday celebration at the Lu's villa.
Old Master Lu was still unreconciled, so he personally wrote out the invitations to invite his friends to his great-grandson's first lunar month birthday. Inside one of the invitations that was addressed to his old friend of many years, he wrote in gleaming letters that his friend should bring his entire family over to his great-grandson's birthday celebration.
Lu Beichuan added up the guests on the invitations that Old Master Lu had written out. Every family that could be considered the cream of the crop in their coastal city had been included in these invitations.
The total of these guests came up to be 100 or so people, and these were just Old Master Lu's friends. He hadn't written a single invitation for the Lu's extended family members.
After Lu Beichuan sorted out the guest list, he discovered that they might not be able to accomodate all of these guests in their villa.
The Lu's home covered a large area. There was a large lawn in front of their villa, and there was a lake near the back of the villa. The landscape was pretty good.

Not having a better option, Lu Beichuan could only discuss with Old Master Lu again. Using the excuse that Zhouzhou was still young and it would be too noisy with that number of guests, he worked on convincing his grandfather to decrease the number of guests.
Lu Beichuan had already won over the old butler. Under these two people coaxing and pestering, Old Master Lu finally conceded. He rewrote the list of guests that he wanted to invite to the birthday celebration to only include people that he had been friends with for many years, all of them were from families that been influential for generations.
The issue over the list of guests finally concluded.

In the evening, Lu Beichuan was finishing his leftover work for the day and Ye Zhen was holding the baby and feeding him milk. The baby was sucking the milk bottle and happily drinking. After he was done, he even gave a satisfied hiccup and grinned at Ye Zhen. He waved his chubby little hand in the air. His charmingly naive appearance had melted Ye Zhen's heart.
This was the little baby that she had arduously given birth to. They shared the same blood. In the past, she had thought about how she would discipline this little fellow, but once he was born, she couldn't even bear to say a single harsh word.
She could finally understood Mother Lu's perspective now. She wanted to present everything that was good in the world to her baby. What was the big deal about doing that?
If it wasn't because Lu Beichuan wouldn't back down, Ye Zhen really wanted to have the baby sleeping in the same room as them.
Ye Zhen lowered her head to kiss the baby's chubby little face. The scent of milk filled her nose.
With a sharp eye and agile hand, the baby grabbed a lock of Ye Zhen's hair and refused to let go.
"Zhouzhou, let go of mom's hair. Be good, listen to me! Ow! Let go!"
Not only was Zhouzhou very stubborn, he had a strong grip too. He tightly held her hair and wouldn't let go. He kept yanking down too. Ye Zhen was tilting her head, and her scalp was aching because of this little brat. And yet, this little brat was too fragile, and she couldn't do anything to him.
"Lu Beichuan, get over here and control your son!"
Lu Beichuan, who had been focused on his work, heard Ye Zhen's voice, and the hand that was signing documents stopped. He walked to the bed and saw that the little brat had let go and was now sucking his fingers.
Ye Zhen deposited the baby into Lu Beichuan's arms, found a pacifier for Zhouzhou, and tied up her hair.
Rubbing her sore scalp, Ye Zhen didn't know whether she should laugh or cry. And yet, she couldn't bear to criticize her baby. She could only say, "This kid is getting naughtier and naughtier. Who knows how he's going to turn out in the future?"
Lu Beichuan looked at Zhouzhou, who was baring his teeth and grabby hands. He couldn't help raising his voice as he said, "You're not allowed to pull on your mom's hair. Do you understand?"
How could a kid this young understand his words?
Zhouzhou's big round eyes blinked. As if he had gotten scared by his father's voice, his lips quivered before he started bawling.
"What's wrong with Zhouzhou? Mom was just randomly saying stuff. I'm not blaming you, baby... Lu Beichuan, what did you do?! He's only a baby. How could he know anything? Why did you scold him?" After saying that, she held Zhouzhou and coaxed him. She felt distressed for her baby. "Zhouzhou, don't cry, don't cry. Dad is a jerk. We don't need to listen to jerks. Mom will beat him for you!"
After saying that, Ye Zhen smacked Lu Beichuan while she held Zhouzhou and continued to coax him, "Zhouzhou, did you see that? Mom hit dad for you. Don't cry anymore, okay?"
