Xie Li waved her hands and said with a smile, "I still need it."
"How much money can you use? You can live at home, raise your own chickens, grow your own vegetables, and buy some clothes."
"Hongxia still has a lot to learn."
"How much is Hongxia's tuition per year? Hey, you are such a rich man and you are only paying a small amount!"
Xie Li smiled and said nothing.
Grandma Liu was full of envy. She lay on the mud wall between their homes and smiled, "You are so lucky. You have a brother and a boy. Just leave. Hongxia is a girl alone. It's too lonely. If you can have another boy, your life will be perfect."
Xie Li was unhappy when she mentioned having a baby, and her face changed.
But Grandma Liu didn't know the real reason. She thought that she was upset because the boy had gone abroad and didn't know how many years it would take for him to come back.
She laughed and said, "It depends on fate. You can't force it."
As the two were talking, there was a noise in front of them, and they both looked outside.
"Hey, why is Chen's daughter-in-law back?"
Grandma Liu stepped down from the mud wall and followed to see the excitement.
Xie Li thought about her three sleeping kids, so she followed them to see the fun.
She remembered hearing them say before that the daughter-in-law of the Chen family was hiding from pregnancy, so why did she come back now?
The Chen family's son helped his wife walk back carefully, and the whole family was filled with sorrow.
Grandma Liu asked: "What's going on? Why has your daughter-in-law's belly become smaller?"
Old Mrs. Chen burst into tears, "I gave birth to this grandson for more than five months. When he died, he even saw the little teapot. Woo woo woo... My eldest grandson is gone just like that."
"Oh!" Grandma Liu felt regretful.
Old Mrs. Chen cried, "What kind of world is this? If you give birth to a boy as your first child, it's fine. We will only have one child. But now you give birth to a girl, but you are not allowed to have another one. That means you will have no descendants. Oh, what's going on?"
"Wasn't your daughter-in-law hiding well? How did she get caught?"
"Hey, those dog people, my daughter-in-law hid in the mountains and was found by them. They took her to the hospital before they sent someone to inform us. When we were there, the baby was already born."
Everyone felt very sympathetic towards her.
Seeing her crying, he comforted her, "It's okay, just be careful next time."
Old Mrs. Chen waved her hands and said, "No, no, the ring is all given to me."
"ah?"
Old Mrs. Chen wiped her tears and said, "I gave it to you and it's gone. What a sin! My daughter-in-law has suffered a great sin."
Everyone sighed.
Xie Li said, "It's like this now. People in the countryside can still give birth secretly, but I heard that people in the city, especially those who don't have jobs, will catch anyone who has two children and fire both the couple."
Grandma Liu nodded and said, "No, the crackdown in the city is even stricter."
Old Mrs. Chen wiped away her tears again and said, "If I had known that we were not allowed to have children now, I would have risked my life to have more children."
They were from the same village, and Old Lady Liu and the others knew about her situation back then.
She gave birth to a son, but he almost died.
Her family doctor said that she had a special physical condition and could not reproduce, otherwise her life would be in danger.
She actually wanted to have another child, but her husband was afraid that she would get into trouble, so he secretly got sterilized, so they only had one son.
Everyone tried to comfort her, "Hey, think positively and don't talk about the past."
"녦What should I do if I only have one girl?누 This generation will be extinct."
"There are so many people who give birth to a daughter in this world. Does that mean they will all die without an heir?" Xie Li said, "Grandma Chen, since this is the way the world is now, a family with a daughter will definitely have its own way of continuing the family line in the future. It will never be cut off."
"That's fine. At worst, I can find a son-in-law for your grandson. Everyone wants sons instead of daughters. Daughters will be very valuable in the future. Those boys who can't find wives will have to become sons-in-law of their parents."
When someone in the group shouted this, the family with only daughters was in an uproar.
I think this makes sense.
However, a family with two sons said sarcastically: "It sounds good, but my family may not agree. Anyway, my two sons are going to get married, so who can't be your son-in-law?"
Grandma Chen got angry and replied, "If you don't agree, you will be two bachelors. If you can't find a wife, you will end up with no descendants."
“…”
"Why can't my two sons get married? I think you are the one who wants to end the family lineage."
Doesn't this poke into everyone's heart?
Grandma Chen was just worried about having no place to vent her anger, so she wanted to fight with him as soon as he arrived.
"What did you say? I'm going to tear your mouth to pieces."
The onlookers saw the fight and rushed to stop it.
Pull and persuade at the same time.
A group of people were having a great time when a few strangers in green clothes came over.
"Hey, why are you fighting? Where is your village chief?"
Everyone stopped and asked, "What are you doing?"
Someone recognized it and said, "They are from the Family Planning Office."
Ah? The Family Planning Office? Are they here to arrest me again?
"There are no pregnant women in our village who are expecting a second child."
"We have to check to know this, but some people in your village did not respond to the call of the country and tried to have a second child. The leader decided to criticize and educate your village and conduct an examination on all the women in the village."
They then discovered that one of the female comrades had a first aid kit hanging around her neck.
It doesn't look like a joke.
Everyone quickly notified the village chief, and then the village chief notified the entire village, asking all the women at home and those with IUDs to gather at the commune. Those who had IUDs installed were fine, but those who didn't had to be checked.
In front of everyone, the 그 family scolded the village chief like his grandson.
The usually highly respected village chief could only bow and scrape at this moment. He listened to the scolding of the villagers and nodded and smiled apologetically.
The village chief has behaved like this, so ordinary people dare not say anything, not even the most arrogant ones.
Grandma Chen had just lost her grandson and was scolded by her parents. She was angry but dared not say anything.
After that, I had to be examined with other women.
She was angry, "You guys can investigate my young wife, but why do you have to investigate me at my age?"
"You didn't say you haven't gone through menopause yet, and you haven't had an IUD installed yet."
Grandma Chen: “…”
She blushed for a moment.
"My son has been sterilized, and my family has the certificate."
An ignorant young man next to him said, "Just because a man has had a vasectomy doesn't guarantee that you won't get pregnant. You have to get checked."
Grandma Chen was so angry that her face turned red. "What do you mean by that? Are you saying that I would steal at my age?"
The leader saw something was wrong and tried to smooth things over, "Comrade, you misunderstood. Our Xiao Wu is young and can't speak. What he meant was that even if he got the vasectomy, there is a certain probability that he will get pregnant. For the sake of safety, we should take a look."
"Well, that's more like it."
The leader glared at Xiao Wu fiercely.
You can't speak, even if you have doubts in your heart, can you say this?
