Qi Ran went into labor in the middle of the night, and Old Mrs. Li immediately woke up the whole family: "This is the Lu family's first child, everyone go to the hospital to be with her!"
"Mom, it's so late at night." Shen Qianqian was sleeping soundly. Being dragged out of bed by Old Lady Li like this made her extremely unhappy.
"Your sister-in-law is giving birth, and you're still thinking about sleeping!" Old Mrs. Li snapped angrily. "Alright, stop talking nonsense and get out of here!"
As she spoke, she reached out and grabbed Shen Qianqian's sleeve, leading her outside without further ado.
That night, the entire Lu family listened to Qi Ran's howling all night long, until the sky began to lighten. Only then did the sound of a child crying reach everyone's ears.
"It's born! It's born!" Grandma Li patted Grandpa Lu excitedly while taking out the gift she had prepared for her grandson.

As soon as Qi Ran opened her eyes, she asked Lu Yuncheng, "Where's our son? Where is he?"
Lu Yuncheng pointed to the side, his expression showing a hint of impatience: "Where's the son? It's a daughter!"
Old Mrs. Li had already put away the gold ring she had prepared, and snorted coldly: "I knew you were heartless, spouting nonsense! You're clearly a girl, but you lied to us that you were a son!"
Qi Ran struggled to sit up and looked to the side, only to see with her own eyes that the child she had given birth to was a daughter. She felt as if the sky had fallen.
