Speaking of this, Hu Laosan had something to say, "I said before that I wanted a daughter, but you didn't give birth to me, and now you gave birth to a bad boy!"
His wife was unhappy when she heard this. "Hey, can you blame me for this? It's not that I can't have a baby. It's your bad luck that you are destined to have no daughter, and you gave birth to three annoying boys. You were fined for giving birth to the third child. It makes me angry just talking about this! If it was a girl, I would accept the fine. But it's a boy again, I'm not happy."
"Stop talking about it. The birth of that kid has drained all our family savings. If it weren't for the Shen family helping us, we would have to beg for food outside!" Hu Lao San snorted, "It would be great if it was a girl. I would have both a son and a daughter in this life, and I would be satisfied! Wife, why don't you try harder and have another child? Give birth to a daughter."
"I'm already 38 years old. Giving birth to a third child has already cost me half my life. It's not easy to have another one! Even if I can give birth, it's not certain that it will be a girl. What if it's a boy? The three at home are enough to annoy me. They are just like ancestors who come to collect debts. I think you are not destined to have a daughter, so don't think about it."
"But I really want a daughter like Fubao..." Hu Laosan also likes Fubao very much. She is simply his ideal daughter.
He even thought about proposing to the Shen family in the future. Since they didn't have a daughter like Fubao, it would be good to have her become their daughter-in-law.
However, the Shen family became more and more prosperous, and in recent years, they became the richest family in the surrounding area. Besides, which of the four boys in their family is not more handsome than their own son, and is more capable of studying and promising?
Hu Laosan felt that if Fubao married into his family, it would be a disgrace to her. It wasn't that he was being disloyal, it was just that his son was not worthy of her!
Old Madam Shen glanced at the two of them, feeling somewhat proud, but she curled her lips and said, "Not everyone can give birth to a daughter like our daughter, otherwise, wouldn't such a beauty be everywhere? Our Shen family hasn't had a girl for several generations, so this generation finally has one, so naturally this is the best!"
Hu Laosan and his wife echoed, "Yes, yes, Fubao is really a blessed little girl, everything is the best!"
When they arrived at the paddy field, the group got off the tractor and started working.
There were many villagers plowing and planting rice in the fields around, and Aunt Zhao was among them. Seeing Fubao sitting under the shade of the tree beside the ridge like he used to, eating snacks instead of working, she still couldn't understand it after all these years.
In the past, the girl was young, so it was okay not to let her work.
She is thirteen or fourteen years old now and a grown-up girl, but you still don't let her go out. Do you really treat her like a baby?
Seeing Shen Zhiyi and Shen Zhile take off their shoes, roll up their trouser legs and follow the old couple to the fields, Aunt Zhao was even more disgusted.
Look, everything is done by the adults and boys in the family. I don't know what's the point of having that girl. Wouldn't it be a waste of food if she was born?
Thinking of this, Aunt Zhao looked at her daughter who was planting rice in front of her and felt a little proud.
Her daughter is eighteen years old this year. She is good at work. No matter at home or outside, she can be found if there is any problem. Her parents and two younger brothers don't have to worry about it.
Although she didn't receive much education, she was sent to the county town to make money after she dropped out of school. Now she can send money back home every month to reduce the burden on her family, and she also pays for the tuition of her two younger brothers.
Because her daughter is capable, many people come to her house to propose marriage, which is something Aunt Zhao is proud of.
