Grandson?
The midwife’s words shocked Madame Ruan. Even Ruan Qishan and Wang Yazhi were so shocked that they were unable to speak.
“A boy?” Madame Ruan asked.
The midwife smiled and nodded. “That’s right, a boy. He’s very healthy.”
Ruan Qishan’s smile was so wide that he was unable to shut his mouth. Although he had said that he didn’t care if Ling Tianya gave birth to a boy or a girl, in his heart, he had hoped that there would be a boy in the house. He had already accepted the fact that Ling Tianya was pregnant with a daughter but who would have thought that he would suddenly receive such a surprise? The boy born today was the Ruan Family’s eldest grandson and the future heir.
Madame Ruan was also extremely happy. She wasn’t happy because she now had a great-grandson or because she preferred boys to girls. She was happy for Ling Tianya. Because she had given birth to a son, Ling Tianya would avoid many problems and gossip in the future.
Was Yazhi was crying tears of joy. “My Yaya! She’s so great!”
At the back of the room, Old Fifth and Old Seventh were listening with their necks stretched. However, when they heard that Ling Tianya had given birth to a boy, their eyes immediately widened, and they looked at each other in disbelief.
“Wait! Did you guys make a mistake?” Old Fifth came over and looked at the child in the midwife’s arms. “Are you sure it’s a boy?”
The midwife nodded. “I’m positive. You can tell if it’s a boy or a girl with one glance.”
While speaking, the midwife carefully opened the child’s blanket and exposed the child’s genitals for everyone to see.
“It’s a boy. There’s no mistake,” the midwife said once again.
Everyone finally took it all in. Ling Tianya had not given birth to a girl, but a boy!
Old Fifth’s eyes were round. “Didn’t they say that it was a girl? Why is it now a boy?” While speaking, Old Fifth furrowed his eyebrows and glared at the midwife. “Does that child perhaps not belong to the Ruan Family? Ling Tianya sure has nerve! Did she, in front of all of us, work with you guys to swap another child for the Ruan Family child?”
The midwife’s expression changed and she looked at Old Fifth. “What did you say? I don’t understand.”
“Yeah, Old Fifth, I also don’t understand what you are trying to say.” Madame Ruan’s face was cold, and she looked at Old Fifth with an unpleasant expression.
Old Fifth did not care about the time and place and he pulled on his throat as he said, “She sure does bring misfortune! They clearly said that it was a girl, so why has it suddenly turned into a boy? It is obvious that Ling Tianya has collaborated with the hospital staff to pass off a fake as genuine. She took someone else’s child and is saying that it is her child! Her nature is extremely vile!”
When the midwife heard Old Fifth’s words, her face immediately fell. “Sir, when you speak, please take note of your surroundings and the appropriateness of your words. The entire process of the surgery is recorded on a surveillance camera for the purpose of avoiding any unnecessary disputes. If you have any objections, you can go and seek out the footage which will prove our innocence!”
After the midwife was done speaking, she no longer paid any more attention to Old Fifth. She smiled at Ruan Zeyan and Madame Ruan and said, “The child has just been born and needs to be bathed. I will go and help him bathe.”
Madame Ruan quickly responded, “Okay, okay! Hurry and go!”
Old Fifth, Old Seventh and the other members of their family were unable to say anything as they watched the midwife take the child to be bathed.
Madame Ruan looked at Old Fifth with fury in her eyes. “What about it? Do you want to look at the hospital surveillance footage?”
Old Fifth was shocked and pursed his mouth, unable to speak.
Madame Ruan coldly laughed. “Really, as you get older, you like to worry more. However, the things you worry about are a little too much, so much so that you question my daughter-in-law and my grandson!”
Madame Ruan unhappily glared at Old Fifth and then happily walked toward Ling Tianya’s ward. “Aiya, The Ling girl has probably been taken back to her room. I want to go visit her!”
