Extra 16: Jin Zhengtai and Gu Jingxiu
Gu Jingxiu put the cup down on the table, fanning herself with her hands and said angrily, "Jin Zhengtai, you're going to kill me with the spiciness, are you doing this on purpose?"
"Is it too spicy?
Then I'll blow it for you."
Jin Zhengtai came over and blew air into her mouth.
"Go away."
"Then drink more water."
Jin Zhengtai handed over the cup of water again.
Gu Jingxiu could only take it and take another sip, which only slightly relieved the pain.
"Look, the rice you cooked for me these past few days was filled with either green peppers or chili powder, and in excessive amounts. My mouth is now blistered. What on earth are you doing?
Can you go to work? I just got pregnant. I can cook for myself. I used to cook for so many people at home. I am pregnant but I am not unable to take care of myself. You don’t need to care about me so much. Can you go to work?”
Jin Zhengtai said righteously, "Of course not, my wife is pregnant, I must be by her side to serve her, how can I let you cook?
I have to cook for you and wash your clothes, and you just stay at home to take care of the pregnancy and raise our daughter to be plump and fair. You will be our great hero."
"How can you be sure it must be a daughter?
You feed me spicy food every day so that I can give you a daughter?"
Gu Jingxiu finally realized Jin Zhengtai's intention.
Jin Zhengtai scratched his head guiltily and chuckled, "I thought you liked spicy food. Sour food makes boys, spicy food makes girls. You eat chili peppers every day with gusto. I think you must be pregnant with a girl."
Gu Jingxiu was speechless at his answer, "Everyone is trying their best to give birth to a son, but you are trying to make me give birth to a daughter."
"Silly wife, you don't understand this, right? Just because they all gave birth to boys, we have to do the opposite and give birth to a girl."
"Why?"
Gu Jingxiu looked puzzled.
Everyone else has sons, but they give birth to daughters. In their hometown, they would be ashamed to do so.
It has to be said that some concepts are deeply rooted.
Jin Zhengtai helped Gu Jingxiu sit down and analyzed for her, "Look, between the babies born now and Tang Ze's two future sons, which one will be the easier one to deal with in the future?
The eldest son, Hongshu, is only two years old, but he is very smart. When he sees the eldest son sitting with his sister-in-law, he starts calling his dad a bad boy and insists on getting into his sister-in-law's arms.
There is also Captain Gao's son Zhuangzhuang, who grew up in a military compound. In the future he will be a general's son and will definitely be a gunman. Tang Ze's son will be even more extraordinary in the future, as soon as he is born.
Uncle Tang and Uncle Chen will definitely have a battle for their grandson. Both of them will inherit the family property and maybe become the CEO in the future.
There is also Hengheng from the Mo family. He comes from a scholarly family and I guess he can become a doctor when he grows up.
Compared to those guys, what advantages will we have if we have a son?
His father, I, am just a little errand boy in front of a group of leaders. My son has already lost at the starting line. I can't ask my son to run errands for them in the future, right?
But... the situation changed when a daughter was born."
Gu Jingxiu felt that Jin Zhengtai's analysis made sense, and asked excitedly, "How to reverse it?"
Jin Zhengtai fed her an orange slice with an unfathomable look on his face. "Do you think that, apart from our nephew Hongshu, who is a cousin of our daughter, the others have nothing to do with us?"
Gu Jingxiu nodded, "Yes."
"So when the boys from these families grow up, will they all look for wives?"
Jin Zhengtai asked happily again.
Gu Jingxiu, “…”
It turns out that this is the purpose!!!
Jin Zhengtai looked confident as he planned his daughter's future. "When we have a daughter, no matter if she takes after you or me, she will definitely be pretty. She will definitely be as beautiful as a fairy and as pretty as a flower. Won't those guys be drooling over her?
If she can marry Zhuangzhuang, she will be the daughter-in-law of a general in the future. If she can marry Tang Ze's son, she will be a wife of the business world. Even if she marries the Mo family, she will be a family of scholars. In the end, no matter which family she marries, she will be no worse."
After hearing this, Gu Jingxiu kicked him angrily, "Are you sick? I just got pregnant and you're arranging a date for the child. My sister-in-law has already said that her family doesn't arrange a marriage for Hongshu because they're afraid that the child will regret it in the future and it will affect the relationship between the adults and children. What are you thinking?"
Jin Zhengtai explained, "We don't have a baby marriage. Let our daughter talk about it herself when she grows up. Whoever she talks about will be the one. Anyway, I don't object to either one. I completely respect my daughter's choice."
Gu Jingxiu was led into the ditch by him and began to imagine the future, "There are so many outstanding boys in this world, what if our daughter finds a boy from outside in the future?
Don't you agree?
Do you have to look for it in your circle of friends?"
When Jin Zhengtai heard her words, he looked at her as if she was an idiot, "My silly wife, you are still too naive. Let me tell you, have you ever heard this saying?
I met too many amazing people when I was a child, so I have to compromise with everyone from now on.
Our daughter grew up around this group of elite guys, how could she still fall for a young boy outside?
Aren’t Tang Jingyue and Chen Qian examples? "
Gu Jingxiu now completely agreed with Jin Zhengtai's opinion. Indeed, there were probably not many boys who could compare to the children of the Gao and Tang families, unless one of them grew up crooked.
Soon, she turned around again and gave Jin Zhengtai a blank look, "No, how can you be so sure that the baby in my belly is a girl?"
When Jin Zhengtai was asked this by Gu Jingxiu, his heart began to beat fast.
He is not sure either. How can he be sure?
He pouted and started to make a scene, "I don't care, I just want my daughter."
Gu Jingxiu, “…”
She grew up in an environment where women were basically respected by their sons, and had status in the family after giving birth to sons.
Even if I gave birth to a daughter, my belly would not be fertile and I would not be able to hold my head up in front of my husband’s family.
When she came to him, Jin Zhengtai cried and shouted for a daughter.
From now on, she will be honored as a mother because of her daughter.
What if she gave birth to a son, would Jin Zhengtai think that her pregnancy was disappointing?
Thinking of this, Gu Jingxiu began to give Jin Zhengtai a shot of prevention, "Um... I'm telling you in advance, my second sister-in-law said that the key to having a boy or a girl is the man!
Well...if you grow chili peppers, you won't get eggplants. Don't blame me when that happens."
Gu Jingxiu felt embarrassed when he heard this.
Oh my god, why does it sound so weird when she says this?
"Then eat more chili peppers. If it's a son this time, when we give birth to our second child next time, I'll go find Doctor Feng and ask him to prescribe some secret recipe for us. We'll definitely give birth to a girl."
When Jin Zhengtai said this, he suddenly slapped his forehead in annoyance and said, "Oh, I was so careless. I should have consulted Dr. Feng Shen before I got pregnant."
Eating chili peppers was not enough, he also had to take medicine. Gu Jingxiu could no longer bear it and started to drive him away, "Please stop making trouble. Go to the company this afternoon and don't show up in front of me."
Jin Zhengtai sat still. "No, I have to stay at home with you. I plan to recite some poems to the child later. Prenatal education is also very important. Look at these children nowadays. The competition is so fierce. I have to cultivate her temperament from the moment she is in the belly."
Gu Jingxiu was angry and didn't want to talk to him. She walked into the bedroom angrily and slammed the door shut.
Then he called Gu Jingchuan and asked him to ask Jin Zhengtai to come to the company to work.
Regarding the question of whether Chen Qian is pregnant with Nezha and why he hasn't been born yet, let me explain.
Jin Zhengtai and Gu Jingxiu got their marriage certificate first, but it was not mentioned in detail in the main text (I plan to write a separate chapter). Chen Qian graduated in September of September and became pregnant half a year after getting her marriage certificate. This was mentioned in the main text, so they just got pregnant a few months earlier than Gu Jingxiu.
In the future, I will try to write down the specific time so that it won’t be confusing.
Happy New Year everyone!
