"Sister-in-law, you're awake? I'll go get you something to eat." Lin Xue was about to come in to check on the child when she noticed that Song Lili was awake and said happily.
Before Song Lili could answer, Lin Xue rushed out, giving her no chance at all.
When Zhang Qinghua heard that Song Lili had woken up, he rushed over and met Song Lili's eyes.
"Is anything bothering you?" he asked anxiously.
Song Lili shook her head. "No, I'm just a little short of breath. I guess it's because I'm weak. I'll be fine after some rest." This is a normal phenomenon after childbirth.
"That's good." Zhang Qinghua was relieved.
"Sister-in-law, quickly drink this bowl of brown sugar and egg water. I kept it warm especially for you, just in case you wake up at any time."
"Thank you." Song Lili took the bowl. Although she didn't feel hungry at the moment, she had a feeling of emptiness in her stomach and wanted something to fill it.
"Sister-in-law, you eat. I'm keeping the fire burning in the kitchen," Lin Xue said before leaving.
Since her older brother was there, she couldn't properly talk to her sister-in-law, so she had to leave first.
Let the couple have a good talk first.
Zhang Qinghua watched as Song Lili finished drinking the brown sugar and egg water, and only after taking the empty bowl from her did he say, "If you're tired, take a nap."
"I'm not going to sleep anymore, sleeping too much will give me a headache." She had already been sleeping for a long time.
Zhang Qinghua left the house, put the bowl in the kitchen, and then came back in.
"Have you seen the baby? Is it a boy or a girl?" Song Lili asked curiously, having never thought of having it checked herself.
When this topic came up, Zhang Qinghua became extremely frustrated, and his expression clearly showed that he had "seen" it.
However, it is unclear whether it is a boy or a girl.
"A boy?" Song Lili asked tentatively. If it were a girl, Zhang Qinghua shouldn't be behaving this way.
Zhang Qinghua was even more depressed. Hearing the word "boy" from Song Lili's mouth made him feel even worse.
So, whether out of spite or what, she just mumbled a "hmm".
"Hehe," Song Lili couldn't help but laugh out loud. Zhang Qinghua's depressed look was really too funny.
She looked at Zhang Qinghua with a bright and lively expression. "I'm just asking you, are you surprised? Are you taken aback?"
Haha, it really is a boy. You're disappointed this time, aren't you?
Moreover, it wasn't just one person who was disappointed; apart from the two youngest men, the other three in the family would probably be very disappointed as well.
It's because they all like girls.
Just thinking about their sullen expressions made Song Lili feel good, and she laughed even harder until her stomach started to hurt.
"Ouch!" she cried out.
"What's wrong? Does it hurt somewhere?" Startled, Zhang Qinghua forgot his frustration and looked at her helplessly.
Song Lili waved her hand, trying to suppress her laughter, "No, it's just that I laughed so hard my stomach hurts." But then she couldn't help laughing again.
"Lili!" Zhang Qinghua shouted angrily.
The "hahaha" sound makes people laugh even more.
For a moment, Song Lili couldn't stop laughing.
Zhang Qinghua was worried, helpless, and deeply depressed.
I was worried that she had a stomachache and wanted to stop laughing, but I couldn't do anything about it. I could only watch her carefully from the side.
I'm upset because of Lili. Instead of comforting me, she's laughing so happily. Doesn't she like girls too?
Thinking about it, Zhang Qinghua felt a sense of grievance.
Why isn't Lili disappointed that she's not a girl?
Song Lili wouldn't be disappointed. She hoped it would be a girl, but she could accept a boy too.
She didn't have such a deep obsession.
"Stop laughing." Zhang Qinghua was even more exasperated after laughing for a long time without stopping.
"Haha... okay, haha... I'm not laughing anymore, I'm not laughing anymore." Song Lili said and laughed, but then her stomach started to hurt. "Ouch, my stomach..."
"Alright, I'm leaving. Stop laughing." Zhang Qinghua said irritably and stormed out.
With Zhang Qinghua no longer around, Song Lili slowly stopped smiling.
He wiped away the tears of laughter, clutched his stomach, and was still laughing uncontrollably.
"Sister-in-law, what's making you smile so happily?" Lin Xue was called in by Zhang Qinghua and saw that Song Lili still had a bright smile on her face.
Song Lili looked at Lin Xue with teary eyes from laughing, "It's your older brother, he's so funny."
Lin Xue laughed along, "Big brother is probably disappointed this time. He wanted a daughter, but it turned out to be a boy."
"You didn't see his expression when he heard it was his son. He looked like he'd heard something he couldn't believe."
“He’s so dazed. I’ve never seen him like this before.”
Even now, thinking about it, Lin Xue still suddenly wants to laugh.
"Really?" Just imagine what that would be like; it's a vivid picture.
Song Lili's smile, which she had managed to suppress, reappeared.
"Of course it's true." Lin Xue nodded affirmatively.
"Well, there's nothing he can do but be disappointed. It's just that even fate isn't on his side."
He longed for a daughter so much that he talked about her all the time, even to his son.
In the end, I didn't expect to have a son.
Surprised?
Ha ha……
Song Lili was very happy, and with Zhang Qinghua making her laugh, she was all smiles for the rest of the time.
The little boy wasn't allowed into the house until several days later. As soon as he came in, he asked, "Mom, where's my little sister?"
Song Lili glanced at Zhang Qinghua and said, "Ask your uncle."
Now, let's see how he explains it.
You are responsible for cleaning up the mess you make.
Xiao Chen turned his head and asked again, "Grandpa, where's my sister?" He knew that he had a younger brother; his grandfather had told him.
But didn't Da Da say she was his younger sister before? He still remembers.
"Your sister flew away." Even now, Zhang Qinghua still feels uneasy when he talks about it, and his tone isn't very pleasant.
"Pfft..." Song Lili burst out laughing. Did this person even know what he was saying? Couldn't he explain himself properly?
"It flew away?" Xiao Chen subconsciously looked up at the sky. "When? How come I didn't know?"
"I don't know either." I don't know when my daughter turned into a boy.
"Oh..." Xiao Chen was a little disappointed because his sister had flown away and he would never see her again.
"Alright, forget about your sister, come and check on your brother, he's awake right now."
Song Lili couldn't stand it anymore. "Are you two going to discuss something that's completely baseless for so long?"
He had no choice but to break the awkward atmosphere between the two and wave to the little bun.
"good"
Xiao Chen was disappointed for only a short while before accepting it and letting it go.
Hearing that he was going to see his younger brother, he happily went over, climbed onto the kang (a heated brick bed), and sat down next to Song Lili.
"Mom, my little brother is so small! He's even smaller than my aunt's little sister," Xiao Chen said after looking at him for a while.
"Yes, that's how kids are. They'll grow up eventually."
It's also difficult for him to remember what Song Fang's daughter looked like when she was a child.
Do you look about my age?
"Yes, if I'm the same age as you, I can play with you."
