Chapter 158: The first pair of twins in Naye Village's history
Deng Changfu's family gave birth to twin sons, and the news spread throughout Naye Village in a very short time.
Twins are relatively rare, and the twins born to Deng Changfu and his wife can be said to be the first pair of twins born in Naye Village in history.
In a village like Naye, where sons are valued more than daughters, the birth of a pair of twin sons is such a significant event that it is beyond the imagination of those who treat their sons and daughters equally.
I dare not say anything else, but from now on, no matter which family in Naye Village gets married, I guess they will have to ask Guan Yongying to help the bride and groom make the bed, help the bride into the house, and say auspicious words to them.
There is not much actual benefit in doing these things. At most you can get a bowl of five flavors and a red envelope of a moderate size.
But, the scenery!!!
Because not everyone who wants to do these things is qualified to do them. Only women who have both parents in their own family and in their husband's family, who have a harmonious relationship with their spouse and who have many sons are qualified to do them.
Therefore, being asked to do these things is really a very face-saving thing.
After the news spread in the village, when the parents-in-law talked about this at home, their tone was full of envy. If their daughters-in-law were so successful and could give them a pair of twin grandchildren, they would probably wake up laughing in their dreams.
The young wives in the village who had not yet given birth to sons felt overwhelmed after hearing the news.
For example, Zhang Qi, looking at his five daughters of different ages, was truly filled with sadness.
Other people's first child was twin sons, but she gave birth to five daughters in a row. The comparison really made her want to die.
…
Deng Shirong was stunned for a while after hearing the news that Guan Yongying had given birth to twin sons.
Although he had long understood that after his intervention in this life, the children born to Deng Changfu and Guan Yongying would most likely be different from their previous lives.
After all, a slight mistake can lead to a huge error. If the launch time is even one second different, the result may be completely different. The chances of the couple giving birth to children who are exactly the same as in their previous life are really slim.
However, what Deng Shirong did not expect was that Guan Yongying gave birth to twin sons as her first child, which really surprised him.
Of course, this is a good thing, proving that his intervention in this life has made things better for the couple.
While Deng Shirong was stunned, his eldest daughter-in-law Zhang Xiuping said with envy: "Yongying is so lucky. The first child she gave birth to is twin sons. That's so great. Brother Yunqiang and sister-in-law Yunqiang must be so happy!"
Deng Yunzhen smiled and continued, "Brother Yunqiang and Sister Yunqiang are really happy, but Yongying has also suffered. I heard that she almost ran out of strength after giving birth."
Zhang Xiuping said: "I guess this happened because we were not mentally prepared enough."
Deng Yunzhen said: "It's normal to be mentally unprepared. Who could have thought she was pregnant with twins before the birth?"
Zhang Xiuping said with emotion: "Indeed, I thought Yongying's belly was particularly big before, but I never thought she was pregnant with twins, which is really rare."
“It’s rare.”
Deng Yunzhen nodded, looked at her father and said, "Dad, have twins ever been born in our village before?"
Deng Shirong shook his head and said, "There has never been one. I haven't heard of one since the Republic of China. The ancestors before that were all buried in the mountains, and I haven't heard of any twin ancestors. Ah Fu and Yongying are the twin sons who should be the first pair of twins ever born in our Naye Village."
Deng Yunzhen exclaimed: "This is the first pair of twins in the history of our village. I never thought that Ah Fu and Yong Ying would make history."
Deng Shirong said: "It is indeed very rare!"
…
Deng Changfu was so happy that he was holding his sleeping eldest son in his arms.
He really never dared to imagine in his dreams that his wife could give birth to twin sons.
Guan Yongying, who was lying on the bed, said with a smile: "Brother Fu, you are still laughing foolishly here!"
Deng Changfu chuckled and said, "Wife, you have really made a great contribution to our family!"
Although Guan Yongying was a little tired, she was in good spirits. She smiled and replied, "I dare not take credit for this. Jiu Gong said that we women are just a piece of land. Whatever seeds you men sow in the land will determine what will grow. I can give birth to twin sons, and that is also the credit of your sowing, Brother Fu."
"What Jiugong said makes sense, but no matter how good my seeds are, without your fertile land, they are useless!"
"Well, that counts as half of my credit, too?"
"More than half. I was only responsible for sowing the seeds. Over the past few months, you have been the one watering and fertilizing. Your contribution is much greater than mine."
“…”
While the couple were whispering in the house, Changfu's mother was holding her little grandson in the living room, also smiling from ear to ear.

Changfu's father, who was sitting next to them, was so happy that his mouth was almost grinning to the back of his head.
In the rural areas of Bobai County, the most commonly said auspicious words are "have a baby and get rich" and "have both wealth and people prospering". The meanings of these two sentences are the same, and both put people before wealth. This shows how much importance people here attach to having sons.
Now, he has two grandsons. There is no greater joy than this.
Changfu's mother couldn't help but say with joy: "Yongying's pregnancy is really amazing. It's really the blessing of our ancestors that our Ah Fu can marry Yongying."
Changfu's father said: "It is indeed the blessing of our ancestors, and we also have to thank Uncle Jiu for helping to bring them together."
Changfu's mother nodded repeatedly, expressing her gratitude to Uncle Jiu, then she stood up holding her grandson and said, "I'll go in and ask Yongying if she has an appetite. If she does, I'll bring her the stewed ginger wine so she can get well soon."
Changfu's father said, "Well, go ask, and let me hold the child!"
Changfu's mother hummed, and as she handed the child over, she also reminded him, "Be careful, don't make my little grandson cry."
Changfu's father was speechless and said, "Look at what you said. It's not like I haven't held a child before. When Ah Fu and his five siblings were born, which one of them didn't I hold?"
Changfu's mother laughed and waited for her husband to carry her grandson over before she walked to her son and daughter-in-law's room and asked, "Yongying, do you have an appetite now? Can I bring you a bowl of ginger wine?"
Guan Yongying said quickly: "Now I have an appetite, so I'll trouble you, mom."
Changfu's mother smiled and said, "It's not a big deal. Just wait, I'll be back soon."
After saying this, he happily went to serve ginger wine to his daughter-in-law.
The so-called ginger wine is a special dish made by killing a chicken and stewing it with a lot of ginger and wine. It is a confinement meal passed down from ancestors for postpartum women.
