No matter what she thought in her heart, considering the relationship between the two families and their recent private friendship, An Hongdou should go to see her.
When they had twins, they not only prepared gifts for both children, but also gave each of them a 10 yuan gift.
Of course, this doesn't count as being between elders, it's just a private friendship among the younger generations.
An Hongdou prepared twenty yuan for the newborn baby, and prepared a set of everything from clothes to shoes and socks.
They chose a Sunday on purpose. The twins and the three brothers Dabao were at home under the care of Mrs. An, and Shen Xiangzhi took An Hongdou there by bicycle.
There are quite a few members of the Mu family, and it is very lively with people coming and going.
I guess they all came to visit the mother and child.
Madam Mu's complexion had improved a lot. She was no longer as sickly and gloomy as she had been the previous times. Although she had lost a lot of weight compared to before, there was more joy on her smiling face.
It is conceivable that the arrival of a grandson did bring some comfort to her heart after she lost her son in middle age.
An Hongdou wanted to go into the room, so Shen Xiangzhi had to stay outside.
I don’t know if it was an appointment or just a coincidence, but Zhao Peng was there too, and the three of them were talking by the flower bed in the yard.
Faintly, I could see Zhao Peng's indignant expression, but I had no idea what he was saying.
The Mu family's courtyard is somewhat similar to that of the Su family. It is not a new small Western-style building like theirs, but a house with ancient charm. The only difference is that the courtyard is bigger, and there are small courtyards inside. Otherwise, it would not be able to accommodate the dozens of people in the Mu family.
In such a big family, everyone lives in one house and sees each other all day long. It is easy to imagine that dealing with the interactions between elders and juniors, and the conflicts between sisters-in-law, would not be very comfortable.
Mu Yundong is gone, and Mu Yuntian has an older sister, but she is also married, so Mu Yuntian is the only male heir left in their family.
But Mu Yuntian’s father is not the eldest in the family. He has several older brothers, and all of them have large families.
No wonder Madam Mu is so eager for a grandson. If Wang Jing's baby is really a daughter, Mu Yuntian's job means that they cannot have a second child. Without a son in the future, their family will eventually die.
Just like the Su family, if Su Su was a man, their family, which was once the most prominent in Jiangcheng, would not have declined to this state today, with only two old people left to guard a yard.
How can you have power if there is no one at home?
Although Sanbao's surname is Su, he is still separated from the Shen family. If he is the great-grandson instead of the great-grandson, Grandpa Su will definitely raise the child on his own knee, and he will inherit everything from the Su family in the future.
But now, in order to treat them fairly, and considering that the Su family’s property had already been given to Shen Xiangzhi, there would be only a few things that the old couple could leave for Sanbao in the future.
When An Hongdou came over, someone just happened to go out.
It was a woman whom An Hongdou didn't know, so she nodded to show her goodwill.
The other party also nodded and walked out.
An Hongdou then walked in and saw Wang Jing leaning against the head of the bed with a hat on her head, with the child sleeping soundly beside her.
"Hongdou, you're here?" Seeing An Hongdou come in, she quickly cheered up and smiled.
An Hongdou nodded and handed over the small bag in her hand. "I'm famous for my clumsy hands, and I can't make anything, so I bought two small clothes for the child. Take a look."
After saying that, she turned to look at the child. She couldn't tease a sleeping baby, so she put the red envelope on the side of his blanket and said, "This is a red envelope for the child. Please keep it for him."
Wang Jing was looking at the little clothes, with a loving smile on her face, and said politely: "Hongdou, you are so polite. Then I will thank you as an aunt on behalf of the child."
It's all about reciprocity, and there's no question of who's taking advantage and who's losing out. Wang Jing didn't feel any psychological burden when she received it.
An Hongdou talked to her for a while, and seeing that she had recovered well, she was sincerely happy for her.
Fortunately, it was a son, so I don’t have to worry about it. If it was a girl, I don’t know what to do next.
An Hongdou talked to him for a while and then went out.
Shen Xiangzhi was still standing in the yard with the two of them. An Hongdou walked over and congratulated Mu Yuntian out of politeness, "Congratulations, you have a baby boy."
"No match for you guys." Mu Yuntian smiled. It was still the same as before, and he couldn't see through his true thoughts.
After they got out of the door, An Hongdou asked Shen Xiangzhi in a casual chat, "Did they say what to do at their child's full moon banquet?"
"Mu Er said he won't do it." Chen Xiangzhi sighed and said, "The child was born prematurely. Although there is nothing wrong with his body, he is still weaker than a full-term baby and can't stand the hardship."
When holding a full-month banquet, you must definitely take the baby out to see it for everyone. Not only will there be people coming and going, but it will also be very stressful.
An Hongdou nodded thoughtfully. No wonder.
She just saw that the child was not very big and thought he was just a little thinner, but didn't think too much about it.
The main reason was that I saw Wang Jing was very happy, so I didn’t think there was anything wrong with the child.
"Isn't his wife's belly very important? How could she go into premature labor?" After learning that she was pregnant, Wang Jing even went out less often, but called her more often.
An Hongdou wasn't really asking, he was just confused. After all, it was someone else's family affair, and even a grown man like him might not know the whole story.
But I didn’t expect that Shen Xiangzhi really knew.
Perhaps he felt that talking about other people's family affairs was not a good idea, so he lowered his voice and said, "I heard that his wife was too worried and gave birth prematurely."
I heard that the news was spread by the nanny, and two nannies were fired as a result.
Because of this news, people outside are speculating that the Mu family is trying to find a daughter-in-law, but it's just speculation. At most, people talk about it in secret, and no one will ask about it openly.
An Hongdou actually believed this reason.
From Wang Jing's words and her way of doing things when the two of them are together, it can be seen that she seems to be living a very tiring life.
But we can't say that it's all the Mu family's fault. An Hongdou discovered that Wang Jing was a person who easily put herself under pressure. She would think about all sorts of things in her mind for a long time just because of a casual word or a look from others.
Especially when she was still pregnant, she told An Hongdou about her sadness more than once on the phone because of Mrs. Mu's words "May God bless her with a son."
Fortunately, God favors her. An Hongdou thought that now that she has a son, she should no longer worry about gains and losses and can live a more normal life.
An Hongdou then completely ran out of time and was even busier than Shen Xiangzhi.
The country is in short supply of talent at this time. Since last year, a group of people have graduated early and entered various industries to contribute to the country's construction.
This year also marks the first collective graduation of college students after the resumption of the college entrance examination.
