Chapter 299
"Okay, thank you Comrade Ye." Xia Peng and his wife didn't hesitate and walked into the main room.
Today is a day off, and Shen Yao is at home.
After inviting Xia Peng and his wife into the main room, Ye Fuyue briefly introduced Shen Yao and Chen Guifeng.
Chen Guifeng stood up and said, "You must be freezing. I'll go get you a cup of hot water."
"Thank you, auntie." Xia Peng and his wife expressed their gratitude politely.
Seeing this, Chen Yao wanted to bring Haohao and Ranran, who were originally playing in the main room, back to the house so that Xia Peng and the others could talk to Ye Fuyue.
When Xia Peng saw Haohao and Ranran, his eyes lit up and he asked Ye Fuyue, "Are they your twin sons?"
"Yes." Ye Fuyue nodded.
"They look alike, so cute." Xia Peng looked at Haohao and Ranran with a smile.
"So cute." Xia Peng's wife also looked at Haohao and Ranran with shining eyes.
"Can we hug them?" Xia Peng asked Ye Fuyue.
Ye Fuyue nodded: "Sure."
Xia Peng then went over with his wife and each picked up one.
But Haohao and Ranran seemed to dislike them. As soon as they were picked up by them, the two little guys pouted and looked unhappy, kicking their legs to get down.
Xia Peng and his wife had no intention of letting Haohao and Ranran down.
"They are both so good looking! So strong." Xia Peng smiled at Ye Fuyue.
Ye Fuyue had been paying attention to the expressions of Haohao and Ranran. Seeing that the two little guys were becoming more and more unhappy, they waved their little hands around and hit Xia Peng and his wife several times.
Ye Fuyue said hurriedly: "They probably want to play by themselves, let them play by themselves."
"It's okay, let's hug each other for a while longer." Xia Peng held Haohao tightly and didn't want to let go. He even leaned over to smell Haohao.
His action made Haohao even angrier, and he started crying loudly.
Shen Yao stretched out his hand to Xia Peng: "Give me the child, I will coax him."
"It's okay. My wife and I have children too. I know how to comfort a crying child." Xia Peng coaxed Haohao, but Haohao cried louder and louder, with no intention of stopping at all.
Ranran saw his brother crying, so he also cried with his mouth held back, and his voice tended to be louder than his brother's. The two brothers seemed to be competing to see who could be louder, howling one after another.
"Give me the child." Shen Yao's tone became more serious.
Xia Peng ignored him and continued to coax Haohao.
Shen Yao looked at Ye Fuyue, and Ye Fuyue nodded slightly at him.
Shen Yao understood and took Haohao away from Xia Peng's arms.
"Give me the child, I will coax him." Ye Fuyue also said to Xia Peng's wife.
Xia Peng's wife was still reluctant to give it, and looked at Xia Peng hesitantly.
Seeing this, Ye Fuyue took Ranran away from her arms.
Chen Guifeng came in with two bowls of hot water and saw both of her grandsons crying.
She put the hot water on the table, took Ranran away from Ye Fuyue's arms, and carried Ranran and Shen Yao back to the room.
Xia Peng rubbed his hands helplessly: "Comrade Ye, we didn't mean it. We don't have any bad intentions. We just think the two babies are cute and want to hug them more."
Ye Fuyue's expression became a little colder.
Seeing that Xia Peng and Tian Hao had a good relationship and that she had met Xia Peng several times, she let Xia Peng and his wife into the house.
But what Xia Peng and his wife had just done really made her feel uncomfortable.
"Drink hot water." Ye Fuyue said lightly.
Xia Peng and his wife sat on the chairs at a loss, and had no appetite to drink the hot water.
Ye Fuyue then continued, "What's the matter with you coming to see me?"
"I heard that you gave birth to twin sons, so I wanted to bring my wife to ask you for advice." Xia Peng said.
"Ask for experience?" Ye Fuyue repeated in confusion.
Xia Peng's wife smiled and nodded.
Xia Peng said, "My wife and I have been married for five years and have given birth to three daughters. We want a son and don't want any more daughters. I wish my wife could have twin sons like you did next time."
"We wanted to hold your son just now. We also heard that if you hold your son more, you might be able to give birth to a son."
Xia Peng's wife nodded vigorously, proving that what Xia Peng said was true.
Ye Fuyue was speechless: "I don't have any experience to share with you."
"What did you eat and do before you became pregnant with twins?" Xia Peng asked in disbelief.
"Eat normally, drink normally, and do what you need to do." Ye Fuyue said coldly.
She couldn't say that the gender of a child is determined by the man's chromosomes and has nothing to do with the woman. People of that era, with their limited education, couldn't possibly understand this. Even in later times, with widespread education, some still believe that the woman's inability to bear a son is to blame.
Xia Peng noticed Ye Fuyue's displeasure and pressed the issue again, "You really don't have any experience?"
Ye Fuyue sneered, "What experience do you have? You want to have a son, but I want a daughter. Why don't you tell me how you all got pregnant with daughters?"
Xia Peng and his wife looked at each other.
When asked by Ye Fuyue, they really couldn't explain how they had three girls in a row.
Before they got pregnant with their second and third children, they had tried many traditional remedies to conceive a boy, but they still gave birth to girls.
Seeing that they were silent, Ye Fuyue said, "Look, you guys can't tell me what experience you have, so how can I tell you anything?"
Xia Peng sighed in disappointment.
After a moment of silence, he said, "Can you let my wife and I hold your son one last time?"
Facing the eager gazes of Xia Peng and his wife, Ye Fuyue shook her head and refused: "They are usually a little shy. They were frightened just now. It's better not to scare them again."
Xia Peng and his wife were filled with disappointment.
"We're sorry to bother you by coming here today. We'll go back first." Xia Peng stood up and said.
Ye Fuyue nodded.
Ye Fuyue sent Xia Peng and his wife out of the yard, closed the gate, and returned to the main room.
When Chen Yao and Chen Guifeng heard that Xia Peng and the others had left, they came out again holding Haohao and Ranran.
Haohao and Ranran howled too loudly and used too much energy just now. Now the two little guys have blurry eyes and are dozing off.
"Have they left?" Chen Guifeng asked Ye Fuyue in a low voice.
Ye Fuyue nodded: "Let's go."
"If I knew they were here to gain experience, I wouldn't have let them meet Haohao and Ranran. There's no experience in matters like deciding whether to have a boy or a girl." Ye Fuyue couldn't help but complain.
"You said before that Xia Peng is a country guy and lives in the countryside, right?" Chen Guifeng said.
"Um."
"No wonder he and his wife are so obsessed with having a son. A son is labor, and labor is work points and food. Although a daughter is good, in the countryside, her labor force cannot compare to that of a son after all," said Chen Guifeng.
