This newborn was her most intimate kin, connected to her by blood—a treasure nurtured within her own body.
A soft, contented warmth filled her heart, brimming with joy.
She longed to reach out, to cradle him in her arms, to caress his tender skin with her fingertips. But her weakened state left her unable to raise her hand.
With a gentle smile, one of the midwives carefully placed the child in the cradle beside her bed, while the other directed Lixia and Ms. Miao to assist.
Qiao Xuan still had tasks ahead—changing clothes, tidying the bed, eating… She would be occupied for some time.
Ms. Song had hurried out to inform Shao Yunduan of the wonderful news.
In fact, the baby's cries had already reached outside; the delivery room door remained ajar, with only a lowered curtain for privacy.
The atmosphere was jubilant.
Upon hearing the news, everyone offered their congratulations to Madam for delivering a Young Master.
