"How could it be a girl? My child is a boy." The woman looked at the baby in the nurse's arms with disbelief.
He lifted the blanket and looked over, and was even more disappointed after seeing it.
"Whatever you give birth to is what you get. It's a girl, weighing four pounds and eight ounces, and she's very healthy." The nurse was used to this scene.
Every time I bring a boy out, everyone is overjoyed, but when I bring a girl out, there's always some fuss.
It's as if making a fuss could change everything. If everyone had boys, the world would become extinct.
"Impossible. My daughter-in-law was just like when she was pregnant with my grandson. She craved sour foods, her belly was pointed, and her belly button was protruding. It must be a boy."
The old woman didn't dare mention that she had taken an egg to a fortune teller, otherwise she would definitely be criticized.
"None of these are allowed. Whatever is born is what it is. Also, the woman inside won't be out for a while. She has a tear and needs stitches."
The nurse didn't want to argue with her and simply handed the baby over. Thinking of the woman inside, she realized that the tear wouldn't have happened if she hadn't been pushing so hard.
"What? It's torn? It needs stitches? How can that be? Won't it be ruined later? Would she still be a woman then?"
The woman was startled. They had all given birth and had never heard of such a thing. If it was torn, could she still be called a woman?
How will that couple live their lives from now on?
"It won't affect anything, it's just a small wound. It will heal quickly if it's stitched up, just like the cut on your hand. If you stitch it up, it will heal faster. If you leave it alone, it will grow crooked and uneven. But once it's healed, it will all be the same."
The nurse stopped and explained to them, thinking about their ignorance, to prevent them from coming back to cause trouble.
Those who are born in the countryside, the midwives don't care if your vagina splits open or not, they just assume it will heal eventually.
They also want to make women suffer less, but these people don't believe them. There have been cases of people getting divorced over sewing.
"Good heavens, your hospital has done a terrible disservice! My perfectly healthy grandson was born as a girl in your hospital."
“My daughter-in-law was giving birth peacefully, and you guys gave her stitches. You just want to make more money. You're all despicable bastards.”
"You should have given birth soon, why have you made such a fuss for so long, and you still have the nerve to complain?" The old woman herself had given birth to so many children, and she had never experienced any tearing.
She didn't understand; she only knew that if there was a difficult childbirth, she could just cut it with scissors, and it would heal itself after the baby was born.
If the bleeding doesn't stop, that's her life.
There's no such thing as tearing or not tearing. Her daughter-in-law didn't have a difficult childbirth, so how did it become a tear? They're definitely trying to charge them more money.
The woman thought of the family from yesterday and knew that there were always people protecting them in the hospital.
So she didn't dare to lay a hand on the child, and instead sat down on the ground with the child in her arms and started crying, her voice filled with a pitiful sorrow.
"Wife, let's go back to our room first." Seeing their state, Li Baichuan picked up his wife and tried to leave.
"Hey, don't go! Give me back my grandson! Those two of yours must be mine. My daughter-in-law is such a good mother; they look like they could have twins."
"Look at your son, he's so skinny, how could he possibly have two children?" The woman had been watching them the whole time, and jumped up as soon as she saw them leaving.
She was afraid that she wouldn't be able to find them after they left, so she glanced at the woman being held in the man's arms.
Bah! She looks like a vixen, and she's obviously incapable of doing any work. She's far inferior to her daughter-in-law.
"Get lost!" Li Baichuan saw her rushing towards him and quickly turned his back to her, afraid that she would bump into his wife.
His wife just gave birth; if he were to be caught doing this, he would fight her to the death.
The woman was frightened by Li Baichuan's fierce gaze, but soon she burst into heart-wrenching sobs.
"Come and see, everyone! They're snatching a child!" The woman looked at the child in her arms, overwhelmed with grief.
Anyway, the child is still young, and whoever raises him/her will be closer to him/her.
She had just seen the child of that family; he was very good-looking. The woman in this man's arms, though unable to do any work, had a rather nice appearance.
The child does indeed resemble her; if this were her eldest grandson, it would truly bring honor to the family.
"Sir, stop making trouble, or we'll call the police." The nurse over there quickly came over when she saw her being unreasonable.
She wanted the two comrades to leave first, but the woman desperately tried to stop them, afraid that if they left, her wish would be in vain.
"You're not allowed to leave." She didn't care at all about the child in her arms, who was crying loudly as she squeezed him.
Li Baichuan and the nurse, one afraid of hurting his wife and the other afraid of hurting the child, struggled but were stopped.
It wasn't until Xiao Liu ran over with his guards that they quickly surrounded the people.
"Who are you? What do you want?" None of Xiao Liu and his men were wearing military uniforms; the old marshal had told them to keep a low profile.
But their imposing aura was genuine; each of them stared intently at her. If looks could kill, this woman would have been killed a thousand times over.
The old marshal in the delivery room came out when he heard the commotion. Not only him, but also people from other wards came out to see what was going on.
Grandma Guo and Qi Feng were also anxious, but they were carrying a child in their arms. If something happened to them, it would be their lives.
"Comrade, could you please check this comrade's family information? Xiao Liu, could you contact their political commissar to come over together?"
“They went to pick up the people themselves. How can someone who doesn’t have a proper family serve the country? Their ideological education was inadequate.”
When Marshal Li saw this man jumping around trying to bully his grandson and granddaughter-in-law, did he really think the Li family had no one left?
Just because you're old doesn't mean you're right. Just because you make a fuss doesn't mean we have to give in to you. Before the baby was born, their minds were all on Su Yatou, and they didn't want to argue with them.
I never expected them to get so agitated. Trying to snatch the child? They'll have to get over this old man first.
The woman's crying suddenly stopped; from the moment she saw that group of people, she felt something bad was about to happen.
Hearing this again, she realized she had really messed up, and panicked, not knowing what to do.
However, thinking about what happened yesterday, she felt relieved. At worst, she could just apologize.
The commotion here was disrupted by another weak cry from inside the delivery room, and the delivery room seemed to fall into chaos.
"She's given birth! She's given birth! This one's definitely mine!" The woman who had never had a grandson before had her eyes light up.
This time it's definitely the grandson, definitely.
"Are the family members of the mother, Quan Meihua, here? The baby is a little short of oxygen and is being resuscitated inside. You should go and pay the fees first."
A doctor came out, but his hands were empty.
"What do you mean by lack of oxygen? And I have to pay money? I don't have any money!" The woman was bewildered. She wasn't in charge of the household; all the money was with her husband.
Her son paid when they came to the hospital, so why is she asking for money again now?
