Han Rou's words made Yun Qiao feel uncomfortable. What did she mean by the mission of giving birth to a son? Would she not stop until she had one?
She wants to have a second child, a son, or a daughter, but having two little girls would also be nice.
She had no plans to have a third child.
But after Han Rou said that, it seemed like giving birth to a son was a compulsory task, and if he couldn't, he would fail.
Yun Qiao was too lazy to argue with her and said perfunctorily, "Let's talk about this later. I just gave birth to a child and haven't thought about it so much yet."
Han Rou didn't intend to end the topic just like that: "Then you can start thinking about it now. I heard that Captain He is the eldest son in his family? The eldest son is the legitimate grandson. It's not good to have no son."
Yun Qiao laughed twice: "Thank you."
"You're welcome. We're from the same company, and I'm doing this for you." Han Rou smiled and touched her bulging belly. "Some time ago, someone introduced me to an old Chinese doctor. He has a big mouth and can tell the gender of a baby by taking a pulse. He's very accurate. I also heard that he can prescribe medicine to regulate the body. If you follow his prescriptions and take the medicine for three consecutive months, he guarantees you'll conceive a boy. Do you want to try it?"
There was a smug look in Han Rou's eyes and eyebrows. Yun Qiao understood what was going on. It seemed that she had consulted a so-called old Chinese doctor to check her pulse and confirmed that she was pregnant with a boy. Otherwise, given her pretentious nature, she would not show such joy on her face.
Yun Qiao shook his head: "Thank you for your kindness, but I won't go back."
Han Rou raised her eyebrows and said, "Why? You don't believe it?"
"It's not that I don't believe it." Yun Qiao studied medicine himself, so he naturally knew that a great Chinese medicine doctor could tell whether the baby was a boy or a girl by feeling the pulse. As for the medicine that guaranteed a boy pregnancy?
This is questionable.
She didn't know whether other people had this idea or not. She had never learned it and there was no scientific basis for it.
"But I can't get this."
Yun Qiao said, "Times have changed now. It doesn't matter whether you have a boy or a girl. Just let nature take its course."
"Yun Qiao, are you stupid? Do you really believe those propaganda slogans on the wall outside?"
Han Rou looked at Yun Qiao with an incomprehensible look and said, "Girls will marry into other families when they grow up. Then they become members of that family. Only sons are your own family. What's the point of living without a son?"
There was a hint of feudal decadence in Han Rou's words, and Yun Qiao didn't want to argue with her.
Because there is no point in arguing. People who have this kind of thinking cannot be changed by just a few words from others. No matter how much others say, it will be like talking at cross purposes.
Yun Qiao lowered his head and yawned, then sent Han Rou away on the pretext of being tired and needing to rest.
Han Rou could see that Yun Qiao was making excuses and actually just didn't want to talk to her anymore.
Han Rou snorted softly.
Qin Yunqiao didn't want to chat with her, and she didn't want to chat with Qin Yunqiao either.
It's stupid. She doesn't want a son. She will regret it later.
Thinking of this, Han Rou puffed out her belly, put her hands on it, and smiled proudly.
Yun Qiao didn't take Han Rou's words to heart, and naturally didn't let her words affect his mood. He was at ease and spent the entire month of confinement under Feng Juan's care.
Eleventh is mixed feeding, breastfeeding during the day and drinking milk powder at night.
The advantage of this arrangement was that Yunqiao could sleep through the night without having to get up repeatedly to feed the baby. He Tingjun had paternity leave and the patience to learn from Feng Juan how to care for the baby. Except for the first week after Shiyi was born, when He Tingjun was unfamiliar with the baby and Feng Juan slept with Yunqiao, He Tingjun did all the feeding and diaper changing himself after that.
Without feeding and taking care of the child day and night, Yun Qiao ate more, slept enough, and recovered faster.
Yun Qiao drank five-red soup, chicken soup and crucian carp soup for nourishment. By the time she was out of confinement, her energy and blood had almost recovered. She was full of energy and had a rosy complexion.
After the confinement period, it was time for the full moon banquet. Unfortunately, there was a sudden snowstorm and Zheng Wenjing could not attend the banquet, so Yun Qiao and the others only set up two tables in the military district hotel and invited close neighbors to have fun together. It was just a formality and that was it.
To Yun Qiao's surprise, just two days after the full moon banquet, she received a gift from Chen Anna.
Due to the inconvenience of communication, Yun Qiao did not specifically tell Chen Anna about her pregnancy and childbirth.
Speaking of this specifically, it seems like he is deliberately asking for a gift.
I don’t know where Chen Anna got the news from, but she actually sent her a package.
Yun Qiao opened it and found a wild red ginseng of excellent quality and half a pound of dried ginseng.
"Oh, who sent this package? Red ginseng and ginseng glue are both rare things." Feng Juan was very knowledgeable and recognized what was in the package at a glance.
Gelatin is rich in collagen and various nutrients. It is a very nourishing nutritional product and is very suitable for postpartum women.
But this thing is one of the "Eight Treasures", on the same level as bird's nest, shark fin and abalone. It is too expensive. In department stores, it is sold by taels instead of kilograms, and it is not affordable for ordinary people.
Chen Anna was just an educated youth who went to the countryside with two twin children. She could hardly work in the fields to earn a penny. Her husband Tang Yi was just an ordinary farmer in the countryside, and his family had no outstanding background.
In this case, it would be reasonable for Chen Anna to buy a pound of eggs and half a pound of brown sugar.
One red ginseng and half a pound of ginseng glue are really too rare.
Yun Qiao sighed and thought: Tang Yi is probably still engaged in speculative business, and the couple did not listen to her previous warnings.
Speculation makes money quickly, and once people get a taste of the sweetness, it is difficult to stop.
Seeing Yun Qiao not saying anything and even sighing, Feng Juan couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong? Someone gave you something and you're not happy?"
Yun Qiao said, "Of course I'm happy when someone gives me something, but if it's not the right thing, I won't be happy anymore."
Feng Juan was confused. "What's wrong? Aren't these red ginseng and ginseng very healthy? They're perfect for nourishing you."
"The delivery is wrong, and the person who delivered it is wrong." Yun Qiao put the things away and repacked the package: "I will return it to the person later."
Feng Juan was a little surprised when she heard this: "Isn't this something your mother-in-law sent to you?"
Yun Qiao looked at her: "Mom, do you think it was sent by my mother-in-law?"
Feng Juan asked, "What else? Who else, besides family members, would be willing to give away such an expensive item?"
"Yeah." Yun Qiao pursed his lips: "It's so expensive, who would be willing to spend it if they are not related to me?"
Unless you have enough money and can afford this little bit, you can spend lavishly without feeling any regret.
Thinking of this, Yun Qiao felt that these things were hot potatoes, and he wanted to return them to Chen Anna immediately.
