Chapter 137 - An ugly baby (1)
Most babies wouldn't look too nice when they were just born, only a very small number of newborns would come out as fair-skinned, chubby little dumplings . Most babies would look like the one that Ye Zhen was seeing: purplish red or dark red skin, a flat face, and wrinkled skin like a little old person .
Ye Zhen glanced at Lu Beichuan's handsome and strong facial features, then she looked at her fair-skinned wrist . She touched her face to check for her defined facial features . She almost couldn't believe that the baby in front of her with his purplish red skin and wrinkled skin was the son that she had arduously given birth to .
In her world view, newborn babies should be fair-skinned and chubby with a pair of beautiful big eyes .
Why had she given birth to such an ugly baby?
The discrepancy between reality and imagination was too big, so it was difficult for Ye Zhen to accept . Thus, she had burst into tears when she saw the baby .

Ye Zhen's sudden cry alarmed everyone in the hospital room .
"Zhenzhen, are you feeling unwell somewhere?"
Ever alert, Lu Beichuan stood up and headed out . "I'll go call the doctor over . "
Ye Zhen hastily stopped him . "I'm fine . "
"Why are you crying then?"
Ye Zhen tried to hold back her tears . "I gave birth to an ugly baby . . . "

When Mother Lu heard that, she laughed . "Is that why? I thought it was something serious . It's okay . It's your first time being a mom, so you don't have any experience . All babies look like this when they're newborn . He'll look better in time . The baby won't look like this forever . He'll look better and better . "
"Really?"
"Would mom lie to you? When I gave birth to Beichuan, he looked like this too at first . His skin was wrinkled all over, and his head was elongated . He looked just like a little monkey . But look at how handsome Beichuan is now . "
Lu Beichuan's expression was stiff, and he stubbornly didn't chime in with his mom's attempt to comfort Ye Zhen .
Perhaps, there was a link between mother and child . The baby had been quietly lying in Mother Lu's arms, but when he heard his mother crying, he scrunched up his eyes and bawled .
His piercing cries sounded as if they could resonate to the sky .

Mother Lu furrowed her brows in distress . Gently holding the baby, she tried to coax him . However, the baby had been asleep for most of the day and had recovered his energy . Even though Mother Lu coaxed him for a long time, she couldn't get him to stop crying .
Seeing that baby's face was flushed red from crying, as the grandmother, she felt her heart aching . "Zhenzhen ah, how about you hold the baby?"
Ye Zhen was caught off guard . When the small baby was presented to her, she was once again shocked by how small the baby was as he laid curled up in the swaddling clothes . Clearly, the baby was of a certain size, but why did he seem so small in comparison to her?
Ye Zhen carefully held the baby . Supporting the baby's soft, little head in her palm, she copied how Mother Lu had tried to coax the crying baby .
Strangely, the baby that had been bawling in Mother Lu's arms immediately stopped once he was deposited into Ye Zhen's arms .
The baby hadn't even opened his eyes yet, but he giggled and gurgled at Ye Zhen .
Ye Zhen's heart melted into goo . She stretched out a forefinger to touch the baby's clenched fist . It was such a soft hand . It felt as if even the bones in his hand were soft too . She didn't dare to use too much strength in fear that she would hurt this fragile baby . She only gently tapped the back of the baby's hand .
"Sure enough, the baby likes his mom the best . The little fellow stopped crying as soon as you were the one holding him . "
The little fellow in her arms kept giggling and blowing out bubbles . He looked so silly with his closed eyes and big smile .
Ye Zhen couldn't resist smiling too .
Ye Zhen found a transparent white jade tucked inside the baby's swaddling clothes . The jade had been carved into the shape of a traditional protection charm: a circle with a hole in the center . The surface was smooth and perfect . When she held it in her palm, it felt warm .
"Dad specially found a famous master carver in Myanmar to carve this . It's to ensure the baby's safety and well-being . "
The jade was transparent and flawless, and the carving was meticulously done . Ye Zhen didn't know much about jade, but she knew that the value of any gift from Old Master Lu would be very high .
“Where’s grandpa?”
