1243 I Will Give Birth To A Boy For The Wang Family
“Mom, you don’t have to be secretive. It’s nothing. I understand.” Xu Qianqian pulled herself out of her unhappiness just now and spoke exceptionally rationally.
“Yunzhong and I have been together for a long time. I know the situation at home very well, including your and Dad’s personalities. Yunzhong mentioned to me that you like boys but not girls.” Xu Qianqian gently patted the old lady’s hand that was holding her arm and sighed. “I have special feelings about this because my parents also favor my younger brother.”
When the old lady heard this, she couldn’t help but look up at Xu Qianqian. Then, she nodded and said in a deep voice, “Qianqian, since you’ve spoken, Mom will say some heartfelt words to you.”
“Your father and I are indeed looking forward to a grandson, but we have no choice. Zichen is the only grandson in the family now. Your father is more old-fashioned and believes in the same old style. If there are fewer men in the family, he won’t be able to raise his head.”
“When your father and I were married, everyone was poor, but every family worked hard to give birth. It was a competition between which family gave birth to more boys!”
“Back then, when I gave birth to Yunzhong, he weighed seven pounds. At that time, the conditions were tough. When I gave birth to him, I was only a hundred pounds. He was a real fat boy!”
“In the end, after giving birth to Xiao Mei and Zhi, there were two girls in a row. My old lady gave me attitude every day and said that I used all my strength to give birth to a boy, Yunzhong, alone. That’s why he was seven pounds when he was born and I couldn’t give birth to a boy anymore!”
“How can just one boy do? I continued to give birth. Fortunately, the fourth child is finally a boy, Yunfa. However, Yunfa’s fetal position was not right, and his head was big. It was difficult for me to give birth to him. I almost died in the delivery room.”
“Although I survived, my vitality was injured. I couldn’t give birth anymore.”
At this point, the old lady seemed to have recalled a very old past. Her eyes were a little dazed. After a long time, she sighed and continued, “At that time, the two boys in the family were far from enough, but I couldn’t give birth anymore, so before Yunzhong’s grandparents left, they were still talking about the lack of boys. These thoughts passed from Yunzhong’s grandparents to your father, so your father had an obsession with giving birth to a boy. Now that Zichen is the only grandson in the family, he’s naturally anxious!”
As soon as she finished speaking, the old lady looked at Xu Qianqian and said seriously, “That’s why I say, don’t take Mom and Dad’s anticipation for a grandson to heart. Take good care of the baby. If fate allows, it’s naturally a boy. Even if it’s a girl, she’s still the granddaughter of the Wang family.”
The old lady knew better than anyone how untrue her words were. However, pregnant women were the most important now. She naturally had to say it nicely, but she did not want a granddaughter at all!
Xu Qianqian naturally understood this. She would not believe that the old lady could treat her granddaughter like a grandson just because of her sincere words.
However, Xu Qianqian understood even more that in the current environment of the Wang family, since she had married into the family, if she wanted to gain a stable footing, she had to rely on her son!
The entire Wang family was still good to her because she was pregnant. However, if she could not give birth to a son, such a good life would not be long.
Therefore, Xu Qianqian immediately promised, “Mom, don’t worry. I know our Wang family wants another grandson, especially one Yunzhong gives birth to. I’m still young. If I can’t give birth to a son now, I’ll give birth to another child. I’ll keep giving birth until it’s a grandson for the Wang family.”
“Maybe I’m lucky. I might give birth to two grandsons at once!”
When the old lady heard this, her eyes instantly lit up. She did not expect Xu Qianqian to blurt such words.
It had to be known that no one will give birth to a child for their husband’s family these days. It was as if they had lost half their lives to give birth to one.
“That’s good.” The old lady smiled until her eyes couldn’t be seen. Putting aside whether Xu Qianqian was telling the truth, her words made people feel at ease.
The corners of Xu Qianqian’s mouth also twitched, but she didn’t smile sincerely. Just as the old lady thought, she was like most young women and didn’t want to keep giving birth.
She was not a machine for giving birth. If she kept giving birth to children to give birth to a boy, wouldn’t her stomach be filled with stretch marks?
However, only this superficial promise could allow her to continue living such a stable life. She was also praying for herself in her heart, praying that this first child would be a boy.
Only then could she become the true mistress of the Wang family and control everyone in the Wang family!
…
There were many people at noon. Wang Yunmei and the rest made dumplings together for a long time before they were done. Fortunately, the dumplings were ready once they were cooked. They could eat them soon.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the dumplings were out of the pot, the doorbell rang again.
“Who is it? Is Brother here?” Wang Yunzhi was stunned. She looked up at Wang Yunmei and asked.
When Wang Yunmei heard this, she said, “He can’t be so early, right? I told him it was dinner.”
While the people in the kitchen were puzzled, Wu Bi, who was chatting with Jian Yu in the living room, stood up and opened the door.
As soon as the door opened, Ji Haoyu, who was wearing a black woolen coat, stood outside.
The two of them looked at each other for a moment. Wu Bi was the first to react. He looked at Ji Haoyu in surprise and whispered, “Boss? You…”
Ji Haoyu had an evil smile on his face as he greeted Wu Bi. “You’re here too!”
As he spoke, Ji Haoyu ignored the stiff expression on Wu Bi’s face and squeezed into the house through the crack in the door.
“Haoyu!”
Wang Yunmei wiped her hands and came out of the kitchen. Coincidentally, she saw Ji Haoyu enter and couldn’t help but call out happily.
The smile on Ji Haoyu’s face instantly changed from evil to obedient. He said warmly and kindly to Wang Yunmei, “Happy birthday, Auntie!”
“You came at the right time. The dumplings just came out of the pot!” Wang Yunmei warmly let Ji Haoyu into the house. Wu Bi, who was behind her, had a look of surprise on his face. Boss was…
“Auntie, I brought two bottles of good red wine for you.” Ji Haoyu handed over the beautifully packaged red wine in his hand.
Seeing this, Wang Yunmei couldn’t help but glare at Ji Haoyu. She seemed to blame him, but she was actually happy. “I already said that I wouldn’t let you bring gifts. Look at you…”
“What kind of gift is this?!” Ji Haoyu quickly said, “This is the wine saved at home. It’s also a gift from someone. Of course, it has to be accompanied by good wine on such an important day. It’s not considered a gift.”
Ji Haoyu was used to being glib-tongued in front of Wang Yunmei, and he coaxed her until she was stunned. She smiled and nodded. “Alright, Auntie will accept it. Let’s drink together at noon.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Wang Yunmei shouted in Yao Jiachi’s bedroom, “Xiao Ai, Haoyu is here!”
