Every time the eldest daughter gave birth to two children, she would kill a chicken.
Shi Haiyan curled her lips secretly, giving birth to a money-losing child and still drinking chicken soup.
Although, she wouldn't say it out loud.
She is pregnant. If the chicken is killed and others cannot eat it, does that mean she still can't eat it?
As it turns out, she didn't!
Xie Ailian was extremely determined in this matter and insisted on treating everyone equally.
Apart from Chen Meiru, not even Shi Haiyan or the two grandsons would secretly feed this chicken a sip of soup.
Avoid trouble!
Even if we take a step back, with Shi Haiyan's stinky mouth, she would definitely run to Chen Meiru to show off.
I'm afraid this New Year will be a very turbulent one.
Shi Haiyan threatened to go back to her parents' home, but Xie Ailian only asked Wang Sanbing to follow her, saying that the road was slippery in the snow and he should not fall.
“……!!!”
Shi Haiyan was so angry that she turned around and went back to the house and lay on the bed for a long time.
A chicken was chopped into small pieces and locked up by Xie Ailian, so that Chen Meiru could drink chicken soup for five consecutive days.
But after a few days, Xie Ailian discovered that Chen Meiru seemed to dislike the child and she had to watch over him while he was feeding.
"I didn't blame you for giving birth to a girl, but you're complaining about it?" Xie Ailian glared at Chen Meiru angrily, "Let me tell you, even if it's a girl, she's still from Old Wang's family."
"Mom, how could I dislike the flesh that fell off my body?" Chen Meiru smiled guiltily.
She was in excruciating pain and almost died from a difficult labor, and gave birth to a girl. She was not happy at all, but only felt disgusted and hateful.
However, she wouldn't be stupid enough to say those thoughts out loud.
It doesn't make sense that her mother-in-law doesn't mind that she gave birth to a girl and doesn't give her the cold shoulder, but she takes the initiative to find fault with her.
Xie Ailian picked up the little girl with wide eyes and rolling feet, teased her, and put her down when she fell asleep.
"Don't be so ungrateful... Do you think you'll feel comfortable only if I become like Mrs. Zhou from your Chen family, who treats little girls like no one, let alone you, like no one else?"
Before leaving, Xie Ailian warned Chen Meiru again.
When Shi Guixiang learned that Chen Meiru had given birth to a daughter, she did not visit her immediately. She came on the third day, empty-handed, and with only a few nice words on her lips. She was almost beaten out by Xie Ailian with a big bamboo broom.
However, in the past two days, many relatives and clansmen of Lao Wang's family who are within the five generations of mourning have come to see him. None of them came empty-handed, and some brought a cabbage or a radish as a token of their appreciation.
Those who are closer to you will bring a few eggs, or a pound or half a pound of brown sugar.
"It's almost Chinese New Year, and you're still willing to kill a chicken. You're really willing to do that."
Xie Xiaofeng came to the house with a bag of eggs and half a pound of brown sugar. After seeing the child, she came out and talked to Xie Ailian in the yard.
"Since the rules have been set, the chickens must be killed..." Xie Ailian was also very sad about the killing of the chickens, but, "It is definitely difficult to treat four sons equally, but this must be done.
Otherwise...look at how many old women in the village are unable to move. No matter whether their daughters-in-law live or die, won't they always talk about how their mothers-in-law treated them when they gave birth and were in confinement after childbirth? "
this……
Xie Xiaofeng thought about it and it seemed to be true?
Xie Ailian snorted and laughed, "I won't give her any chance to talk about this, especially since she gave birth to a girl. If she talks about it later, it will become another bad lawsuit."
"You think far ahead." Xie Xiaofeng was quite shocked.
Xie Ailian would never say that it was she and Wang Dahai who were talking about it, and it was Wang Dahai who said that the chicken should be killed when it should be killed. There were words painted on the wall of the brigade headquarters, "It doesn't matter whether you have a boy or a girl" and "Women hold up half the sky."
Then, despite her reluctance, she persuaded herself.
"It's okay to have a girl as your first child. It's not like you can't have more children... But when this little girl wakes up, her eyes are wide open.
I was originally worried about a difficult birth, and I was afraid that something bad might happen if I held it in for a while, but when I saw how bright her eyes were, I felt relieved.
I don’t say he’s necessarily clever, but he’s definitely not stupid.”
“…”
Xie Xiaofeng thought to himself, it sounds like he's still looking down on her as a little girl, is he actually showing off?
Wang Dahai, who was twisting a brown rope nearby, suddenly said, "Zhaozi is very bright, so let's call him Wang Zhaozhao."
Xie Ailian: “……!”
Xie Xiaofeng: “……!”
"I'll go find my fifth uncle and ask him to help write it down so that there won't be any mistakes when registering the household registration." As Wang Dahai said this, he put down the work in his hands, went to the well to wash his hands, and went out.
He came back quite quickly. Xie Xiaofeng and Xie Ailian chatted about other things. Before they could finish their conversation, they saw him walking into the yard with his hands behind his back.
"Old man, have you finished writing it? Give it to the second son. Now that everyone is free, he can go to the brigade headquarters to get a certificate and register his household registration before the New Year." Xie Ailian asked.
"I did write it, but my fifth uncle said that the name Wang Zhaozhao sounded too masculine, so he changed it. He said he would remove the four dots at the bottom and call her Wang Zhaozhao. Zhaozhao means bright and clear, and the meaning is good. He wanted her to be a bright and clear-minded person."
"Oh, what Fifth Uncle said must be right and good."
Xie Ailian didn't care about masculinity at all, nor did she understand the meaning.
If your name is Wang Zhaozhao, then just call yourself Wang Zhaozhao.
