Chapter 117 If you have a daughter, you're a bodhisattva in our family.
You'll gain weight after getting married.
Especially men.
Women also experience this phenomenon.
People jokingly call it "happy weight gain".
Jiang Jiani also thought that she had gained weight due to the happiness of marriage.
After all, Lu Xiangyang needed to take care of his health, so he ate all sorts of ribs, pig's trotters, chicken, and fish every day without fail.
Lu Xiangyang ate, and she ate too.
Eating like this every day, it's no wonder you gain weight.
Jiang Jianni sometimes felt that she had gained weight, so she touched her belly and waist and asked Lu Xiangyang if she had gained weight.
Lu Xiangyang's answer is always the same: not fat, just right. Sometimes it's because you were too thin before, and now you're just right.
This led Jiang Jiani to deceive herself as well.
Since Lu Xiangyang doesn't dislike her gaining weight, why should she dislike herself?
The most crucial point is...
She discovered it.
Although her waist has thickened, her belly has grown bigger, and her buttocks have become a bit fleshy, her limbs are still as slender as before, and her breasts have also grown larger.
She was also happy that the chubby little thing was growing in the right place.
After all, she's a teacher, and she also writes novels on the side. She sits for at least ten hours a day, so it would be strange if she didn't gain weight.
She had also considered doing yoga, gymnastics, Pilates, Pamela Reif, and other similar things, but she didn't want to do them for more than three minutes.
All he's thinking about is making money by writing novels.
Moreover, she was puzzled: "Isn't it said that pregnant women experience morning sickness and nausea? I don't have any, I only threw up once today."
"And I don't have anything like excessive sleepiness. I sleep seven hours a day and I don't feel sleepy at all."
He's even a bit too energetic, almost like he's in a state of high excitement.
Doctor: "Everyone's constitution is different, so the symptoms will also be different."
"Some women don't feel anything from the time they get pregnant until the baby is born, and they don't realize they are pregnant or just have gained weight until the baby is born."
After saying that, he glanced at Jiang Jiani, clearly including her in this category as well.
Jiang Jianni: "..."
She's definitely not that kind of person; she threw up today.
The old doctor gave the young couple a bunch of precautions before they helped each other out of the hospital.
Lu Xiangyang is still in a daze.
Standing on the bustling street, Jiang Jianni touched her belly and exclaimed, "I never thought I would get pregnant."
She never thought about marriage in her past life, so naturally she never thought about having children.
Marrying Lu Xiangyang in this lifetime was a very natural process of getting along.
Although she had done everything she was supposed to, she hadn't thought about contraception at all.
Jiang Jianni was extremely frustrated: "I still lack experience."
Lu Xiangyang snapped out of his daze, pulled her close, dodged a bicycle, and looked shaken: "What do you mean, inexperienced?"
Jiang Jianni: "We should have gotten some condoms back then. I never thought I would have a child so early."
The old doctor told her that if she didn't want to have any more children after this one, she could come to the hospital to get condoms. That's when she realized that condoms were now free and didn't need to be bought.
Lu Xiangyang frowned: "You don't want children?"
Jiang Jianni pinched him again: "I said I hadn't thought about having a child so early, but now that she's here, how can I not want her? Am I that heartless?"
She has a strong sense of following the crowd and singing whatever song is popular.
Besides, the reason I didn't want children before was because I never even considered getting married.
Now that they're married, and Lu Xiangyang is her ideal type—a good person—having a child isn't a big deal.
Lu Xiangyang held her hand: "What I mean is, if you don't want to have children, then we won't have any more after this one."
Jiang Jianni could hardly believe her ears: "Really? You're not kidding me, are you?"
"What if it's a daughter? Wouldn't you want a son to carry on the family line?"
Lu Xiangyang: "...Our family doesn't have an heir to the throne, so what's the point of continuing the family line?"
"Besides, can't daughters carry on the family line?"
"Children born to daughters are half Lu family blood, and children born to sons are half not Lu family blood, so what's the difference?"
Women may become more sensitive and suspicious after becoming pregnant.
Before she became pregnant, Jiang Jianni dreamed of becoming a millionaire through writing and buying a house in Haicheng, Beiping as soon as possible.
Now that I know I'm pregnant, I've suddenly become lazy and weak.
She couldn't help but move closer to Lu Xiangyang, as if she wanted to meld herself into his body: "You say you don't want a son, and you just don't want a son?"
"What if your parents want a grandson?"
"If they say we have to have a grandson, should we have one or not?"
Lu Xiangyang said firmly, "Impossible!"
"My mother's biggest disappointment is that she gave birth to four sons and not a single daughter."
He revealed a little-known fact: "Actually, when the fourth child was born, my mother thought it was a girl and prepared a lot of girls' clothes."
"It turned out to be a boy, which made my mom cry for days."
“I was three years old when I first saw it, I’m not lying to you.”
"My mom wasn't so heartbroken until my dad suggested raising the fourth child as a daughter."
Of course, they didn't raise the fourth child as a daughter either.
For Lu's mother, a son is a son, and a daughter is a daughter.
Since it's a son, we can't raise him like a daughter, lest he change his temperament.
With four sons of her own, she inevitably noticed other families who had daughters.
Fang Shuying was very well-behaved and beautiful when she was a child. Every time Lu's mother saw Fang Shuying, she would come back and lament to Lu's father that this girl was not her own child.
Later, it was discovered that this girl not only loved to cry, but also used crying to trick other children to achieve her own goals, which made Lu's mother dislike her.
Although she likes girls, she values character even more.
Fang Shuying's character was not very good in her eyes, and her liking for her decreased accordingly.
Lu Xiangyang didn't mention that his mother had ever coveted Fang Shuying, but emphasized, "If we really have a daughter, Jia Ni, you'll be our family's savior, and Mom will have to treat you like royalty."
He suddenly remembered something: "Do you remember me telling you that Mom has a lot of good stuff?"
Jiang Jianni nodded: "I remember, you said that."
Lu's mother is not an ordinary girl; she is the daughter of a capitalist.
Lu Xiangyang chuckled softly: "A long time ago, our mother said that she couldn't have a daughter herself, so she could only place her hopes on the four of us brothers."
"She said that if any of us brothers were to have a daughter first, she would give us a lot of rewards."
"Our mom has quite a few good things."
"If you want to see it, you'd better try your best to have a daughter."
Jiang Jianni stared wide-eyed in shock: "Really?"
Lu Xiangyang said earnestly, "Really, I'm not lying to you."
Jiang Jianni suddenly raised her eyebrows and said, "Then I should be saying that to you."
"You reap what you sow. If you plant a cucumber, do you expect to get a tomato?"
