Volume 1, Chapter 526 What is son preference over daughter?

"Is there only one room in your house?"

After much deliberation, she decided that it would be most appropriate for her to go to Sheng Wanyan's house. As she lived alone with her child, it would be most appropriate for her to stay there on her own.

For example, Gu Shumin is also from Kyoto, but he can’t live there with so many other people.

So Sheng Wanyan's family was the most suitable one, and they were roommates, so she never thought that Sheng Wanyan would refuse.

She was 100% sure, but she didn't expect to be rejected as soon as she spoke.

"My mother-in-law is here, and there is no room at home."

Li Juhua curled her lips when she heard her mother-in-law coming. Wasn't this an excuse to reject her?

"Isn't your mother-in-law in the city? Why is she here..."

"Isn't it normal for my mother-in-law to come?"

"This is her son's home. Is there any problem with him staying here?"

Sheng Wanyan was too lazy to waste time talking to her. She was not her mother and had nothing to do with her.

"I...I'm just saying."

Li Juhua didn't dare to offend her. After all, she was the darling of the teachers and the last disciple of Mr. Zhao. Who would be so stupid as to offend her?

If she were to put on airs in front of the teacher, her future would be ruined!

"Don't talk nonsense in the future. We have a good relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, so as not to be misunderstood."

"I'm going back first."

Sheng Wanyan took her things and left. Li Juhua's chest heaved with anger when she heard her words.

No one would believe that the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is good. Is Sheng Wanyan afraid that if she goes to live in her house, she will find out that her mother-in-law treats her badly?

The more Li Juhua thought about it, the more likely it was. Otherwise, why would Sheng Wanyan reject her so anxiously?

The teacher's favorite, but life in her husband's family is just like this...

Sheng Wanyan didn't know what Li Juhua was thinking. As long as she didn't harm her interests and didn't play tricks in front of her, she wouldn't have too much contact with her.

When Gu's mother saw her come out, she quickly took the things in her hand.

"How did you do on the test?"

"fine."

When Mother Gu heard this, she was overjoyed. If her third daughter-in-law said it was very good, then it must be very good.

"Come on, mom will stew your pork elbow for you tonight."

"Thank you, Mom."

Sheng Wanyan likes to eat stewed pork elbow very much recently. When Gu's mother found out, she didn't mind the trouble and often made it for her.

"Thank you Nana~"

She thanked her sweetly one by one. Mother Gu's heart melted when she heard it and she rubbed her face.

"Oh~ My dear has become sensible."

"Yiyi, you have to eat more tonight."

The mother-in-law, daughter-in-law and grandson returned home talking and laughing. That night they ate the pork elbow, and it was so delicious.

Summer vacation is here, and Gu's mother discusses with Sheng Wanyan whether to move back to the compound. After all, the compound is more convenient.

Moreover, the store has also stabilized. After all, there are nannies in the compound and the children can play together.

But Sheng Wanyan refused. She actually liked her own little life more. Besides, it was not so convenient to go back to the compound and get things out of the space.

If I want to go out, Grandpa Gu and Grandma Gu will be worried, so I can only stay in the yard.

"Mom, we still have to look after the clothing store and the small workshop. Can we go back after your vacation is over?"

Mother Gu still has half a month of vacation left, so we can go back together then. I can also arrange things here in this half month.

"Okay, then we'll go back then."

As long as she is willing to go back, Mother Gu doesn't care about this half month. After all, she also has to keep a close eye on her third daughter-in-law's shop.

"But you have to go for a prenatal check-up."

"I'll call your dad and ask him to drive over tomorrow."

Sheng Wanyan nodded. The baby was now three months old, so it was time to go for a check-up.

Mother Gu hurriedly went to make the phone call. She had been worried that her third daughter-in-law might have health problems for the past half month, and she would feel uneasy if she didn't check on her.

Yi Yi touched Sheng Wanyan's belly and put his ear close to listen to the movements of his younger brothers and sisters.

"Yi Yi, my brothers and sisters are still young and can't move."

"ah!?"

Yi Yi didn't care about anything and continued listening. She just didn't believe that her younger brother and sister wouldn't move! If you don’t do it today, you can continue listening tomorrow.

Sheng Wanyan touched her head with amusement. She was particularly afraid that Yi Yi would feel that she would not love him anymore after having a younger brother or sister.

Yi Yi is a sensitive person, so I have to pay close attention to her emotions. So when Gu Tingxiao comes back, I have to have a good talk with him.

"Yi Yi wants a brother or a sister?"

"younger brother!"

Yi Yi’s words surprised Sheng Wanyan. Did she know that if this baby was a boy, she would lose many benefits when she grew up?

Not to mention her and Gu Tingxiao, just talking about the Gu family, she has to give in for her brother.

Sheng Wanyan educates everyone equally, but there is only one male in the Gu family, Gu Jinfang. The Gu family serves in the army, so they value boys more.

"Hmm? Is my sister not okay?"

"Sister too~"

If it were her younger sister, she would take her out to play, let her play with Barbie dolls, and let her wear beautiful dresses.

But...she heard from the adults in the grocery store that her family needed a boy.

"Yi Yi, what's wrong?"

Sheng Wanyan noticed that something was wrong with her mood. Since she became pregnant, Yi Yi seemed not as noisy as before.

In the past, I wanted to explore everything in the house, touching and looking at everything.

But now during this period, he eats and sleeps well after class and is not as lively as before.

Sheng Wanyan held her in her arms and asked softly.

"Yi Yi, are you unhappy?"

"Can I tell Mom?"

Yi Yi pouted and buried her face in her arms, her tone sounding a little scared and aggrieved.

"Mom... what's the point of favoring boys over girls?"

When Sheng Wanyan heard her words, she paused and her pupils constricted.

She knew that sooner or later someone would tell Yi Yi about these gossips, but she didn't expect it to happen during this sensitive period of time.

"Boys carry heavy things, and girls carry light things."

"ah?"

Yi Yi looked at her with confusion in her eyes. Why did what her mother said be different from what those aunties said?

Those aunties clearly said that if they had a younger brother in the future, their parents would no longer like them and would only like their younger brother.

“In our family, that’s what it means.”

"Have you remembered it one by one?"

Sheng Wanyan kissed her little face, her eyes full of tenderness. What she feared most was the discord among the children in the family.

Once a person has a gap in his heart, the relationship between his brothers and sisters will only become more and more distant as he grows up.

"I'll remember~"

I nodded one by one and took my mother's words to heart, remembering them very clearly.

After finishing her phone call, Gu's mother came back and stood outside the door without going in. She heard every question Yi Yi asked clearly.

He sighed in his heart, fortunately his third daughter-in-law loves girls. If it were someone else, Yi Yi would probably be ignored in the future.

Nowadays, there are not many mothers who love their girls.

At that time, Wang Chunmei was not a special existence, but the existence of most women of that era.
