Everyone else burst into laughter. First-time fathers are just silly. Wang Jun glanced at Gu Changsong and saw he was laughing too, so he said, "How dare you laugh? You weren't much better than him back then."
Gu Changsong suddenly felt embarrassed. Of course, he was also scared at that time. He didn't even dare to hold the baby when it was just born, but now he can hold the baby easily.
Song Mei, who was standing behind the crowd, looked at the peanuts in Gu Changsong's arms, then looked at Bai Ruozhen's huge belly with envy. Seeing that everyone was laughing, Song Mei curled her lips and said, "Maybe it's two girls."
Her voice was not loud, but everyone in the yard heard it. They stopped laughing and looked over.
Song Mei was a little flustered and said with a wry smile, "I was just joking."
Bai Ruozhen smiled faintly, "Two daughters are better than one."
Song Mei was startled and looked up at her, "Are you making fun of me for having only one daughter?"
"Did I say anything about you, sister-in-law?" Bai Ruozhen looked at her innocently, "You were the one talking from the beginning to the end, okay?"
Song Mei, however, felt deeply wronged. She turned to Qiu Lanying and said, "Mom, I was just joking about Lao Wu's family making fun of me for not being able to have children. Mom, don't you care?"
Everyone was stunned. Bai Ruozhen glanced at Gu Changbai, his face also turning terribly dark.
Gu Changqing looked at Gu Changbai and said, "Brother, although I don't care about some things, and even if Zhenzhen is really pregnant with two girls, she is still my sweetheart. Sister-in-law has been sour and said so many things more than once or twice. If you really think it's better to turn against me, then just let Sister-in-law continue. I'm not afraid anyway."
Gu Changbai took a deep breath and twitched the corner of his mouth, "She's not very smart, so don't bother with her."
"What's wrong with my brain?" Song Mei was first criticized by Bai Ruozhen, and Qiu Lanying didn't care. Then Gu Changbai said that she was not smart. She immediately got angry and said, "Gu Changbai, explain to me clearly, what's wrong with my brain?"
"Shut up!" Gu Changbai gritted his teeth, "Either shut up or get a divorce now."
So Song Mei immediately shut up.
Bai Ruozhen and Gu Changqing exchanged a glance, speechless. It turned out Song Mei was afraid of divorce, so why did she keep causing trouble? Perhaps she really wasn't thinking straight.
Little Cherry was a little frightened. She didn't say a word while being held by Qiu Lanying. Her eyes were blinking and it was unknown what she was thinking.
In the afternoon, Song Mei stayed in the house quietly without saying a word, while Xiao Yingtao ran back and forth between Bai Ruozhen and Wang Jun, being extremely sweet-mouthed.
Bai Ruozhen hated Song Mei, but liked Xiao Yingtao very much. He felt a little sorry for Xiao Yingtao's subconscious attempt to please them, but even though he felt sorry for them, he couldn't do anything. He even regretted letting the child see them quarreling like that.
Bai Ruozhen touched his belly and went to the yard. Qiu Lanying was washing vegetables with Gu Changlan. Seeing Bai Ruozhen coming, Qiu Lanying smiled and asked, "Why is it coming out?"
Bai Ruozhen smiled and said, "Sitting is uncomfortable, it's better to stand."
"It's inconvenient with a big belly." Qiu Lanying sighed, "It's a pity that I can't go to take care of the baby, but your second aunt said that she has applied for early retirement. Once the paperwork is completed, she can go to Yancheng to take care of you."
Although someone was helping to take care of her, Qiu Lanying felt bad. After all, she was her daughter-in-law, and she had three sons, so she couldn't take care of any of their children. After all, the Gu family earned a lot of wages, but not much work points. Although money could buy food, it was not easy to buy. Moreover, both sons had their own children, so if she took care of one and the other, they would inevitably have opinions. It would be better for her to not take care of either of them and just give them a small annual subsidy.
Bai Ruozhen was surprised and said, "You're too anxious. My baby won't be born until November."
"It's better to prepare early." Qiu Lanying smiled and glanced at her belly. "If you don't let her go, she'll nag at home every day. Let her go. She'll feel relieved once she goes."
Bai Ruozhen responded and wanted to help wash the vegetables.
Seeing this, Gu Changlan quickly stopped her and said, "Ancestor, leave it alone, we will do it."
Bai Ruozhen didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "I can still wash vegetables."
"I'm not worried that it would be inconvenient for you to wash the vegetables, I'm worried that you'd waste them all."
Bai Ruozhen: “…” It’s so heartbreaking.
The next day was Mid-Autumn Festival, and the whole family had a reunion dinner. On August 16th, those who should leave leave, and those who should go to work go to work.
Gu Changsong took them back to Yancheng in a cart.
When they got home, Gu Changqing took her to the cellar, and then Bai Ruozhen saw more than a dozen televisions. Bai Ruozhen felt that she was going to become a rich woman.
In response, Gu Changqing said, "You would have become a rich woman a long time ago."
Bai Ruozhen thought about it and realized that it was true. Since they got married, Gu Changqing had given all the family money to her for safekeeping. Gu Changqing often went out to earn some extra money, so the money he had saved in the past two years was quite a lot.
Bai Ruozhen sighed, "The revolution has not yet succeeded, comrades still need to work hard."
"Not enough?" Gu Changqing raised his eyebrows.
Bai Ruozhen nodded solemnly, "Of course not. I'm pregnant with two children. Whether it's a dowry or a betrothal gift, we have to save it up."
Gu Changqing glanced at the unborn child: "......." It seemed that his wife was thinking too early.
