In the study of Xu Meijuan's house, Chen Wang took out the leopard skin and leopard gall from the sack and handed them to Xu Tiancheng.
"This leopard skin is a little worse than the last one. It has some damage."
After reading it, Xu Tiancheng put down the leopard skin in his hand, looked up and said to Chen Wang.
Chen Wang took a sip of tea, smiled and nodded, saying, "No way, let's just sell as much as we can!"
"This leopard gall is quite good, and these leopard bones are also good things."
Xu Tiancheng looked at the leopard gallbladder next to him, and then at the sack containing the leopard bones.
"Then I'll leave these to you, Uncle Xu. I'll stick to the old rules."
"no problem."
"Thank you in advance for the tea instead of wine."
Chen Wang gestured with the teacup in hand.
"It's just a small matter."
Xu Tiancheng smiled and asked, "I heard from Xiaojuan that you gave birth to a big fat boy? Congratulations!"
"Yes, thank you!"
Chen Wang smiled and nodded in thanks.
"Honestly, you should like your daughter more like me, right?"
Xu Tiancheng smiled and joked.
"Indeed, but this is all arranged by God. I am already very satisfied. Besides, I have a younger sister who just started school, which is equivalent to raising a daughter. If you round it off, it can be considered a son and a daughter."
"Hahaha... you have a good attitude. Are you not planning on having another child?"
Hearing this, Chen Dazhuang, who was sitting next to Chen Wang and drinking tea quietly, also turned his head to look at him.
"Let's talk about it in a few years. Anyway, I don't have such an idea at the moment."
Chen Wang answered frankly.
"Is it because of the policy from above? I can help with that."
Xu Tiancheng smiled and said.
"no."
Chen Wang shook his head.
"Then let's not talk about it. Just let me know if you need help in the future."
"Okay, thank you."
Just last September, family planning was established as a basic national policy.
One of them is that if the first child is a boy, it is usually not possible to have a second child.
However, the intensity of policy implementation varies greatly from region to region. As long as you have connections and spend some money, it won’t have much impact.
"Da Zhuang, I heard that your wife is also pregnant?"
Xu Tiancheng looked at Chen Dazhuang standing beside him and asked.
"Huh? Well, yes, almost three months."
Chen Dazhuang came back to his senses and nodded hurriedly.
"Do you prefer sons or daughters?"
Xu Tiancheng asked again with a smile.
“Well…I…”
“I can’t say I like them all.”
"Then I still prefer a son more, to carry on the family line!"
Chen Dazhuang grinned.
Xu Tiancheng raised his right hand and pointed at him: "You... you are not as good as Chen Wang in this aspect. Your thinking is too old-fashioned. It is not good to favor boys over girls. Daughters are so good. They are their father's little cotton-padded jackets."
"I'm sorry, I..."
Chen Dazhuang scratched his head in embarrassment and was speechless for a moment.
"Don't be like that, I didn't say anything you meant, and you didn't do anything wrong."
Xu Tiancheng consoled him with a smile.
"Okay, Uncle Xu just wants to chat with you casually, don't be so nervous."
Chen Wang smiled, raised his hand and patted Chen Dazhuang on the shoulder.
Chen Dazhuang nodded and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Da Zhuang, if you give birth to a daughter, you can't be like some of the older generation!"
Xu Tiancheng instructed with a smile.
"No, no, Uncle Xu, don't worry. I want a son more, but I also want a daughter. I would be just as sad if I had a daughter."
Chen Dazhuang hurriedly made the promise.
"Well, that's enough."
"What are you talking about?"
Xu Meijuan suddenly walked into the study and asked with a smile.
"We were talking about whether it's better to have a son or a daughter. Uncle Xu said you're his little cotton-padded jacket!"
Chen Wang answered with a smile.
"Hey! Awang!"
Xu Tiancheng's face suddenly turned red and he glared at Chen Wang.
"Haha, don't listen to what my dad said. In fact, he also wanted a son, but my mom was in poor health before she passed away, so he didn't have the conditions."
Xu Meijuan said with disdain in her eyes.
"No way, Xiaojuan, don't talk nonsense, I don't have such an idea."
Xu Tiancheng denied it solemnly.
Xu Meijuan laughed and changed the subject, "The food is ready. Help me serve it. Shall we eat in the study or in the main hall?"
"Let's go to the main room. It's more spacious there."
Xu Tiancheng replied.
"I'll help you."
Chen Wang stood up with a smile.
"I'm going too!"
Chen Dazhuang hurriedly stood up as well.
Xu Tiancheng smiled and nodded, "Then you guys go serve the dishes, I'll take the wine over."
…
…
The meal lasted until two o'clock in the afternoon, and two bottles of white wine were shared by the three of them.
Fortunately, the three of them all had good alcohol tolerance and were only slightly tipsy after drinking.
Xu Tiancheng went to the supply and marketing cooperative as usual, Xu Meijuan went to work at the purchasing station, and Chen Wang and his partner rode their bicycles home.
"Awang, I'm going back."
"good!"
The two said goodbye at the door of Chen Wang's house. Chen Dazhuang continued riding his bike and went straight to his home.
Chen Wang stepped on the brakes to stop the bicycle, then pushed it into the house.
After parking his bicycle near the back house, Chen Wang carried the things he bought at the market and walked through the hanging flower gate into the inner courtyard.
There is no one in the yard. The little girl must have gone to school.
The three dogs should all be in their own nests, only the little monkey was lying on the stone table basking in the sun.
Hearing the noise, the little monkey sat up and looked at Chen Wang, then ran over happily and jumped onto his shoulder.
