Chapter 429: Peng Shuangcheng was greatly disappointed, as if he had been poured with a basin of ice water
During Li Guimei's pregnancy, her belly was pointed and she loved to eat sour food. Many people in the family building said that she was pregnant with a son, and they said it with great confidence.
"It's definitely a son. I gave birth to three sons, and they all looked like Guimei."
"When I gave birth to my daughter, I loved spicy food and my belly became round, which was the opposite of Guimei's."
"Me too. Giving birth to a son is completely different from giving birth to a girl. Guimei is definitely giving birth to a son this time. Peng Shuangcheng will be so happy!"
Almost everyone in the military region knows how much Peng Shuangcheng wants to have a son. His ex-wife Xiang Ermei was bullied by him because she gave birth to three daughters. He also disliked his three daughters. After the divorce, he married Li Guimei, who seemed to be good at giving birth to sons.
Peng Shuangcheng also heard these discussions and was so happy that he looked at Li Guimei's pregnant belly dozens of times every day and never got tired of it because his son was inside!
After returning to his hometown, Peng Shuangcheng can finally stand up straight!
Peng Shuangcheng was in a good mood. He used to be unwilling to even pick up a fallen soy sauce bottle. Now, when he gets home from work, he actively does housework, such as mopping the floor, wiping the table, washing clothes, fetching water, etc., without Li Guimei's instructions. He is very considerate.
It was because he was afraid that Li Guimei would work too hard and hurt her baby son in her belly.
Li Guimei didn't bother to care about him, she just let him do what he wanted, and she was happy and relaxed.
Zhi Honglan was worried for her, "What if he gets angry if the baby is a girl?"
"If he turns against me, then he turns against me. I'm not afraid of him!"
Li Guimei is not afraid at all. She was not afraid of this man before when she didn't have a job. Now that she has a job, she is not afraid at all!
If Peng Shuangcheng knows how to behave, then we will be partners. If he doesn’t want to behave anymore, then we will break up!
Li Guimei, who is very stable at heart, enjoyed Peng Shuangcheng's attentive care with peace of mind. She had an extremely comfortable time throughout her pregnancy. She looked rosy-cheeked and the baby in her belly was also very healthy. Every time she went for a prenatal check-up, the doctor praised her for taking good care of the fetus and said the baby was very energetic.
Sure enough, the newborn baby weighed eight pounds, had a loud voice, and had strong little feet. He kicked the doctor a few times and was almost unable to hold him.
"I said this kid is energetic and looks great!"
The midwife was the doctor who performed the prenatal checkup on Li Guimei. She was very happy holding the chubby little girl in her arms. She liked such strong and healthy children, who were so easy to raise!
"Doctor, how is my child?"
Li Guimei was in good health and had a large pelvis. She worked regularly, so the delivery went smoothly and she didn't suffer much. She was still conscious after giving birth.
"A very healthy, eight-pound fat girl!"
The doctor held the baby in his arms and showed it to her. The baby was still crying loudly.
Li Guimei smiled with relief, "That's great, thank you, doctor!"
She doesn't ask for a son, nor does she ask for her child to be rich and powerful. She only hopes that her child will be safe and healthy. That's great, she is satisfied with everything!
Peng Shuangcheng was rubbing his hands anxiously outside the delivery room. He heard the baby crying, and it was crying so loudly, it must be a son.
He finally has a successor!
"Why hasn't he come out yet? I'm so worried. I don't even know what my son looks like!"
Peng Shuangcheng wanted to push the door open several times to see what his beloved son looked like, but he still had some rationality and restrained himself.
Zhi Honglan rolled her eyes behind his back. If she hadn't been tongue-tied, she would have retorted.
The door opened, and the doctor came out holding the wrapped child and called out, "Family of Li Guimei!"
"Yes, yes, I am her lover!"
Peng Shuangcheng looked eagerly at the child in the doctor's arms. He was so strong, it must be a son!
"Congratulations, it's a big fat girl weighing eight kilograms. The child is very healthy!"
The doctor pressed the child into his arms and congratulated him with a big smile.
"Thank you, doctor. Hahahaha... a baby weighing eight kilograms..."
Peng Shuangcheng's voice suddenly stopped, and the smile on his face disappeared instantly. His outstretched hand froze in mid-air, and he asked anxiously, "Doctor, tell me again, what is this?"
The smile on the doctor's face froze. Having worked in the delivery room for decades, he had seen many families who favored sons over daughters. It was obvious that this man was a patient with severe and late-stage son preference.
Pooh!
"It's a girl, the baby is very healthy, do you want to hold her?"
The doctor had a cold face and spoke in a bad tone.
"How could it be a girl? It's clearly a son. Could you have made a mistake? Was there anyone else giving birth in there? Doctor, could you take a closer look? Did you miss something?"
Peng Shuangcheng was yelling nervously and didn't even remember to hold the child. Zhi Honglan couldn't bear to see this and quickly took the child over.
"He's so good-looking, Comrade Peng, he looks just like you!"
Zhi Honglan fell in love with this girl at first sight. Her face shape was like Peng Shuangcheng, but her eyebrows and eyes were like Li Guimei. She had absorbed all the advantages of her parents and would definitely be a beautiful girl with thick eyebrows and big eyes in the future.
Peng Shuangcheng was still in a daze, like a frozen statue, and didn't hear anything.
The doctor snorted and went back to the delivery room.
Zhi Honglan rolled her eyes again.
Li Guimei was pushed out and fell asleep. Zhi Honglan followed her to the ward. She had taken a leave of absence during this period to come to the hospital to take care of Li Guimei. Luo Xinxin agreed.
The little girl also fell asleep, sleeping next to her mother, and the mother and daughter slept very soundly.
Li Guimei slept until dark before waking up. Zhi Honglan had stewed chicken soup and the oil had all been skimmed off. Peng Shuangcheng seemed to have disappeared and there was no sign of him until now.
"Are you hungry? Have some chicken soup, and you'll have something to eat!"
Zhi Honglan poured a bowl of soup and wanted to feed her.
"It's just giving birth to a child, not a broken hand. I drink it myself. Where is Peng Shuang as an adult?"
Li Guimei had recovered a lot of strength. She sat up by herself and finished a bowl of chicken soup in a few sips. She also finished all the chicken soup brought by Zhi Honglan and ate a few steamed buns. Her appetite was very good.
The little girl also woke up, crying with her mouth wide open. Li Guimei held the child and fed her.
She was in good health and could eat, so she only sucked a few times and the baby came. The child was full. Zhi Honglan took the baby out to help him urinate, and then put him back on the bed.
"Peng Shuangcheng didn't come?" Li Guimei asked again.
She worked so hard to give birth to a child, but this man didn't even show up. Doesn't he want to live like this anymore?
"Come here, and leave again!"
Zhi Honglan was a little embarrassed. Her cousin said that she should not interfere in the couple's affairs as it would easily get her into trouble. So, even though she complained about Peng Shuangcheng, she still held back.
Li Guimei understood immediately and sneered, "He despises me for giving birth to a girl. Never mind him. Sister Honglan, you're going to have a hard time this month!"
"It's not hard. I'm free, and Xinxin asked me to help."
Zhi Honglan's tone was very sincere. When she first came to the family building, she didn't understand a lot of things. Li Guimei taught her a lot and introduced her to new friends. She will never forget this kindness.
"Thank goodness you guys are here."
Li Guimei felt very warm in her heart. She originally wanted to ask her sisters from her natal family to help, but she was worried about her mother who was old and had never traveled far.
Her sisters from her mother's side were willing to come, but there were many children at home and a lot of work to do in the fields, so it was not easy for them to come. It was Luo Xinxin who took the initiative to ask Zhi Honglan to help take care of her during the confinement period. Zhi Honglan was willing to do so and told her not to worry.
"Gui Mei, if you're angry, just let it out. Don't hold it in. You can't hold your breath during confinement, or you'll get postpartum illness."
Zhi Honglan hesitated for a moment, but still tried to persuade him.
