In the following days, people kept moving, some even waiting until the weekend to move.
Everyone is very satisfied with the new house; its spaciousness has made people from other units extremely envious.
The people living in the courtyard houses were especially envious, because Liu Gen and Dongzi's families had both been allocated houses.
When they moved, Yan Bugui even came up with a bad idea, encouraging the neighbors to have the two families host a dinner party, but the two families completely ignored them.
Meanwhile, Sixth Brother and Dongzi discussed inviting the Sun family to dinner to express their gratitude, but Sun Dajiang's family politely declined.
It really proves the old saying: those you want to invite can't be invited, and those you want to go can't be invited.
...
In the blink of an eye, another ten days or so passed. During this time, Sun Zheng'an, Zhou Weimin, Zheng Wenhua, Chen Lianshan and others moved into their new houses.
Their move itself wasn't a big deal, but it kept Sun Zhengguo very busy.
They all wanted to invite Sun Zhengguo to their first housewarming dinner after moving.
But they didn't realize that there was only one Sun Zhengguo, and he simply couldn't handle all of them.
In the end, it's unclear who came up with the bad idea, but they decided to decide who got to eat by drawing lots.
It was both laughable and unheard of, making it a topic of much discussion.
That day, Sun Zhengguo was in his office discussing the launch of the game console with three leaders from the branch factory.
"Comrades! We just received a notice from our superiors that all the patents for the game console have been processed, and it's time to consider launching it on the market. What are your thoughts?"
Upon hearing this, the three exchanged glances and smiled. Li Shengli spoke first, "Director, we've been waiting for this day for a long time, you know? The warehouse is almost overflowing."
"Oh! Then tell me about the specific inventory."
Zhou Weimin then took the initiative to speak, "Director, the inventory has exceeded 80,000 units. We are currently in normal production mode, with a daily output of about 600 units."
"Um!"
Sun Zhengguo pondered for a moment and said, "Eighty thousand units are not enough. Let's start overtime production from now on!"
"Okay, I'll arrange it when I get back."
Zhou Weimin agreed without even asking why, and the other two had no objections either.
After all, game consoles are so fun, there's no reason why they shouldn't sell well.
Seeing that everyone was in agreement, Sun Zhengguo prepared to call Director Yu to discuss the shipment.
But before he could pick up the phone, it suddenly rang.
Sun Zhengguo picked up the phone casually, but before he could speak, he heard Sister Wu's voice coming from the other end.
"Director Sun, Madam just had a stomachache; she's probably about to give birth."
"I understand. Don't worry, I'll be right back."
Sun Zhengguo hung up the phone, no longer caring about the game console, and quickly stood up to make arrangements.
"Old Li, Old Zhang, and Weimin, my wife is about to give birth, so the research institute will be temporarily in your hands. We can contact you anytime if anything comes up."
Without waiting for their reactions, Sun Zhengguo hurriedly walked out.
When they went downstairs, Sun Zhengnan was wiping the car, and Sun Zhengguo didn't have time to explain.
"Stop wiping, hurry up and take me home."
"oh oh!"
After throwing away the rag, Sun Zhengnan quickly got into the car, started the engine, and drove off in one smooth motion. The car shot out of the research institute gate like an arrow.
Ten minutes later, the car entered the courtyard and arrived in front of the Sun family's gate. As soon as it stopped, Sun Zhengguo couldn't wait to get out of the car.
Immediately afterwards, Sun Zhengguo helped Ning Xiaowei out of the house, and the two slowly walked towards the car.
At this moment, Ning Xiaowei was in good condition, except that she was walking a little slowly and had a little sweat on her face.
Grandpa and Grandma followed behind, carrying large and small bags in their hands.
Seeing this, Sun Zhengnan quickly ran over to help, saying, "Grandpa, Grandma, let me have the things!"
"Okay, here you go." Grandpa and Grandma didn't stand on ceremony; he was their own grandson, not an outsider.
The car came and went in a hurry, quickly driving away from the compound.
Only Sister Wu remained in the house, responsible for answering the phone, cooking, and so on...
In the obstetrics and gynecology ward of the Sixth People's Hospital of the city, after a doctor examined Ning Xiaowei again, he arranged for someone to take her to the delivery room.
Sun Zhengguo didn't expect it to happen so quickly; before he could even react, the delivery room door closed.
Just then, a series of hurried footsteps came from around the corner of the corridor, and then Lin Wencui and Li Qiang were seen walking towards them.
Before they even got close, Lin Wencui couldn't wait to ask, "Zhengguo, how is Xiaowei?"
"Mom, Xiaowei has just been taken into the delivery room."
"So fast?"
Lin Wencui reacted the same way as Sun Zhengguo had just reacted, but she couldn't care less about that now.
All I could do was silently pray that my daughter-in-law would have a safe delivery.
Li Qiang greeted everyone and then sat down with Sun Zhengnan.
Soon, Sun Dajiang arrived as well. After asking him some questions as usual, another person waited on the bench in the corridor.
An hour passed quickly, and Ning Xiaowei's cries of pain could be heard intermittently from inside the delivery room.
But those outside the delivery room couldn't help either; they could only wait anxiously.
Suddenly, the cry of a baby made everyone waiting at the door stand up happily.
"It's born! It's born..."
"Great, that voice is really loud, could it be my son again?"
Grandpa had barely finished speaking when he realized he had said something wrong.
Does his grandson lack sons? The answer is no.
As everyone knows, Ning Xiaowei wants a daughter.
What the grandson thinks is not important; what the granddaughter-in-law thinks is what everyone thinks.
So he quickly changed his tune, "I hear this crying is different from before. This time, Xiao Wei will most likely give birth to a daughter."
“Yes, yes, the old man is right. I prayed to the Bodhisattva, and my granddaughter-in-law is destined to have a daughter. She will definitely give birth to a girl this time.” Grandma quickly chimed in.
After hearing the two elders' explanation, Sun Zhengguo was both amused and exasperated.
How much sweet talk must my wife have given my parents at home to make them so united in their thinking?
To everyone's surprise, Lin Wencui spoke up the next second, "I think Mom and Dad were right. Judging from that voice, it must be our daughter. Dajiang, tell me, isn't this time different?"
Left with no other choice, Sun Dajiang was also swayed by public opinion and expressed his views.
"Well... I think everyone makes a good point, and I agree. After all, if you have a goal, you're bound to achieve it. Zhengguo, what do you think?"
Well! These two have also been bewitched. Sun Zhengguo was utterly speechless.
Although he also wanted to have a daughter, this wasn't a standing committee meeting, so even if it passed unanimously, it wouldn't make a difference!
"Grandpa, Grandma, Mom and Dad, since you all think it's a daughter, then it must be, and it must be."
In the end, Sun Zhengguo made the right choice and joined forces with everyone.
Meanwhile, inside the delivery room, one doctor was handling postpartum care, while another was dressing and weighing the newborn.
Although Ning Xiaowei was feeling a bit weak, she still forced herself to ask a question despite her discomfort.
"Doctor, may I ask if I gave birth to a boy or a girl?"
The female midwife who was taking care of the newborn did not answer directly, but instead took the baby and lifted the blanket covering the baby.
"See for yourself."
Ning Xiaowei turned her head and exclaimed in surprise, "Ah~"
...
PS: Ning Xiaowei drew a long sword, pressed it against the author's chest, and angrily rebuked, "You scoundrel, if I can't give birth to a daughter this time, believe me, I'll stab you to death with this sword."
The author was so frightened that he trembled and knelt down, clasping his hands in prayer, "Miss Ning, spare my life! This has nothing to do with me. Who told you to be destined to have no women?"
"You scoundrel, prepare to die!" Ning Xiaowei reacted swiftly, striking the heart of the enemy with her sword.
The author, unable to withstand the inevitable, dies, finally embarking on a time-travel journey. This story enters the next chapter: Rebirth of a Useless Person's Counterattack.
