Huang Meijuan was older than Su Ruanruan, but Su Ruanruan was pregnant with quadruplets and was born prematurely, so naturally she gave birth earlier than Huang Meijuan.
"It's so cold to go to the hospital to give birth. It's fine that Mr. Li can't be relied on, but Mrs. Li won't go either. I don't know what she will do in the hospital alone."
At this point, Niu Guifang sighed deeply, "I went over to take a look, but I couldn't stay there forever. But she looked pretty good. Anyway, it's good that the baby was born safely."
Su Ruanruan also agreed with this.
It has come to this point. Everything else is secondary. The most important thing is to give birth to the baby safely.
Even if grandma doesn't care and dad doesn't love her, at least Huang Meijuan herself likes her.
After the due date arrived, the birth was quite quick. Two days later, when Niu Guifang came again, she brought the latest news.
"Soft girl, Huang Meijuan gave birth! Do you think it was a boy or a girl?"
Just by looking at Niu Guifang's excited expression, Su Ruanruan already had the answer in her mind, "Is it a boy?"
"How did you know?" Niu Guifang looked at Su Ruanruan in surprise.
Without waiting for Su Ruanruan to answer, Niu Guifang sat down and said, "Huang Meijuan has finally made it. For so many years, she was despised by Mrs. Li and was even asked to abort the child. Fortunately, she insisted and saved the child. Now that she has a son, she can stand firm.
Although Huang Meijuan is quite thin, the baby weighed 15 pounds when he was born, cried vigorously, and looked very healthy.
Hearing this, Su Ruanruan couldn't help but feel a little envious.
When her four children were born, the heaviest weighed 4 kilograms and the lightest weighed just over 3 kilograms. They were really thin and small.
Although they are thin, they are strong and healthy, and their appetite has increased. We have been taking good care of them during this period. They drink good milk powder, and they have become visibly fatter. The lightest should weigh about four or five kilograms. There is no need to envy others too much.
Niu Guifang was still talking excitedly, "Ruan Meizi, you don't know, when the old woman there heard that Huang Meijuan gave birth to a son, she was so happy that she rushed to the hospital. Not long after, she ran back and killed all the chickens at home. She wanted to nourish Huang Meijuan and let her baby, the eldest grandson, eat more."
Niu Guifang looked down upon Aunt Li's behavior and even curled her lips while speaking.
Not to mention Niu Guifang, even Su Runruan looked down on Aunt Li.
If she gives birth to a grandson, the daughter-in-law is still a daughter-in-law. If she cannot give birth to a grandson, the daughter-in-law is worse than a maid. She is either beaten or scolded every day. It is really too realistic.
Although Aunt Li's behavior is despicable, for Huang Meijuan, it can be said that after all the hardship comes happiness, and life will get better little by little in the future.
After talking about Huang Meijuan for a while, Niu Guifang's eyes fell on the children on the kang.
"How many days has it been since the baby was born? You two haven't thought of a name for the baby yet?"
Nowadays, you don’t have to register your child’s household registration immediately after birth, so there’s plenty of time to think of a name.
In some production teams, many children from many families would register their household registration and get a formal name only when they were about to go to school.
Before this, they were all called Goudan'er, Dawa and Danier, which is what the saying goes, "a cheap name makes it easier to keep a baby."
However, most people living in the army have some insight and knowledge, and usually give the child a name immediately after birth and register the child.
There is a difference between urban household registration and production team household registration, and both can receive food every month.
Babies have milk powder indicators every month, and pregnant women who have just given birth have egg and brown sugar indicators.
Although Su Ruanruan and Fu Wenjing have no shortage of these things, if they delay for too long, it will definitely arouse other people's suspicion.
Su Ruanruan sighed, "Sister-in-law, you don't know, he is very picky in this regard. He has been trying to come up with names over and over again, but he is still not satisfied with them. He still hasn't decided on one yet."
Niu Guifang also sighed when she heard this, "I heard from Lao Xiao that although Fu Qi didn't have a diploma, he read a lot of books and was knowledgeable. He must have thought over and over again when naming his child."
Su Ruanruan nodded in agreement, "That's right, right? But we can't delay it for too long. We'll decide on the name in the next two days and quickly register the child."
"Yes, it's not even a month old yet. Hurry up and register it. Then you can get food and a slip to buy milk powder."
As soon as Niu Guifang left, Su Runrun began to think of the name seriously.
In this era, the names given to their children by parents are very characteristic of the times.
If we go out and shout out "build a strong country, love the country and the party, and serve the country and the people", I wonder how many people will respond.
Most of the girls' names are related to flowers and plants.
Su Ruanruan didn't mind how ugly these names were, but she also didn't want her child to have the same name as others.
You can give it a special name, but don’t make it too petty bourgeois, otherwise you will be handing your handle to others.
After thinking about it, Su Ruanruan thought of an idiom.
Clear wind and bright moon.
There is nothing taboo about this idiom, and the meaning is good. There are four brothers and sisters, so it is just right to use one word for each of them.
Thinking this in her mind, Su Runrun expressed her thoughts after Fu Wenjing came back.
"Honey, I thought of an idiom this morning, 晴风亮月, what do you think of naming our child?"
Fu Wenjing pondered for a moment and then recited softly, "Fu Ji, Fu Feng, Fu Lang, Fu Yue, all right! My wife, you are really smart. I have been thinking for so long and still couldn't think of any. But you came up with such nice names right away. I will go register them this afternoon."
After joining the army, Su Runrun's household registration was also moved here, and Fu Wenjing's household registration was moved here early on, so it was very convenient to register the children.
At that time, there was no household registration book, only a page of paper with family relationships and family members written on it.
Although it looks simple, this page should not be underestimated.
Without this piece of paper, there is no proof of identity and it is almost impossible to move forward.
This is still the lightest punishment. If someone treats you as a slave, it would be hard to explain.
Fu Wenjing was very efficient and got the new household registration back tonight.
Su Ruanruan took the paper in her hand and read it carefully several times before carefully putting it away in the cabinet.
The days of confinement were spent taking care of the children, feeding them and drinking them. In the blink of an eye, more than twenty days had passed and all four children were one month old.
If it were an ordinary person, they would have been in confinement after giving birth by now, but the doctor told Su Ruanruan to stay in confinement for two months, so she still couldn't go out and had to stay in the house.
