He's father drank a gulp of wine and said, "Just say what you want to say, don't be so mysterious."
Gao Yumei walked a few steps inside and sat down: "I heard that the country is going to implement family planning. From now on, each family can only have one child."
He's mother looked at her like she was crazy: "Come on, what can you do with having a baby? That's enough, go back and clean up your messy pigsty yard and stop talking nonsense."
"Oh, Mom, how can you not believe it?"
"Go, go, go. Even if it's true, so what? What does it have to do with us? You are just bored."
"Why doesn't it matter? The third child in our family is the only one who doesn't have a child..."
"Second sister, can you speak? What do you mean the third sister has no children? Didn't she call back a while ago to say her wife is pregnant? What's wrong with you saying you don't want any more children?"
"No, that's not what I meant. What I meant was, if the third brother's wife gives birth to a girl this time, then the third brother will be the only one without a son among the brothers."
This directly angered He's mother, who picked up the kang-sweeping broom and threw it at her: "You are such a sister-in-law. If you can't talk, shut up and get out of here."
Gao Yumei was unable to dodge and was hit by the broom: "Hey, I came here to tell you something out of kindness, why did you hit me, Mom?"
“Are you kind-hearted?
Don’t talk about whether your news is reliable or not. Even if it is true, how do you know that the third son’s wife gave birth to a girl? Besides, I don’t believe it. Can you control the birth of an old woman even if you control the heaven and the earth?”
He's father didn't take this seriously. He had never heard of anyone being forbidden to have children since ancient times. It was ridiculous.
He's mother didn't wait for Gao Yumei to say anything else and directly chased her out: "Get lost, stop being an eyesore here."
Gao Yumei was not angry when she was kicked out: "I am just worried about the third brother and his wife. If they don't have a son to inherit their wealth, it will be lost to outsiders."
She said this on purpose for her parents-in-law to hear. If the third daughter-in-law really couldn't give birth to a son, her parents-in-law would definitely be dissatisfied. She didn't believe that they would not have other thoughts at that time.
As for Xinyan, as soon as this semester ended, she said goodbye to the school and asked for leave to prepare for the birth of her baby next semester.
The school leaders were a little worried when they saw her belly, which was more than twice as big as other pregnant women. After receiving the application she submitted, they directly approved her leave.
After that, she never left anyone's side.
He Jinxuan accompanied her most of the time. If he really had something to do, he would either take her with him or send her to her grandfather's house to keep her company with her aunt. Sometimes she would also be sent to Grandma Zhang's house to have a small gathering with her senior sister. Sometimes when her aunt made some rare food, she would also take her over.
When the weather is good, the four pregnant women sometimes go shopping together and buy some things for the children. Anyway, they live a very comfortable life.
That day, Xinyan was packing things for the hospital in her room, preparing to put them in her bag so that she wouldn't be in a rush if there was any noise. Then she heard someone outside shouting, "Is anyone there?"
He Jinxuan had just gone out to do some work and said he would be back when he was done. Xinyan had no choice but to leave the hospital by herself: "Who is it?"
The person outside replied, "It's from the post office. There's He Jinxuan's parcel slip."
Xinyan opened the door: "My husband is out, can I sign?"
The postman was not too familiar with this area: "Okay, Mr. Han, just sign your name here."
"Do you know me?"
"My cousin is your student. She mentioned it often when she came home."
Xinyan wrote her name on the receipt: "That's such a coincidence."
The postman smiled and said, "My cousin is Li Jiayuan. She admires you very much and says that your lectures are better than those of old professors."
Hearing this name, Xinyan naturally knew who it was: "She is also very good and hardworking."
As the two were talking, He Jinxuan came back.
Xinyan handed him the parcel list and said, "Come on, don't even come in. Go get the parcel first."
He Jinxuan took it and said, "It was sent from my hometown. I guess it's the blanket and diapers that we prepared for the baby."
