Chapter 18 Helpless
"Mom, it's not the eldest grandson, it's a granddaughter. Look how pretty the child is, so fair and clean. She will definitely be a pretty little girl when she grows up."
Qin Dazhuang picked up his daughter and showed her to Liu Ladi.
Liu Ladi's expression changed quickly.
His face was filled with dark clouds. "What? Not a grandson? How could he not be a grandson? Isn't it said that sour boys and spicy girls? Your wife is always jealous, how can she be a girl? Impossible!"
"Really, mom, it's a girl. I named her Niuniu. Our Niuniu is very obedient."
Qin Dazhuang actually loves his daughter.
Liu Ladi glared at Jiang Xin fiercely, "What a jinx!"
Turn around and leave.
This is a complete disregard for face.
Jiang Xin's face darkened. Her mother-in-law was just like that. Her sister was still here, but she didn't care about her family and was so disrespectful to her.
This is not only a slap in my own face, but also a slap in the face of my own family.
Jiang Xiaoxiao held her second sister's hand tightly, shook it gently, and a smile appeared on her face.
"Second sister, look how cute Niuniu is! She's even blowing bubbles!"
Jiang Xinkuan calmed down, thinking that his sister was still young and didn't understand.
At least his mother wasn't here. If Fan Xiuying was here, there would probably be a fight.
"Yes, it's cute. You were like this when you were a kid, blowing bubbles from time to time. Your parents said you were born in the Year of the Pisces."
As soon as Jiang Xin talked about her daughter, she forgot the unpleasantness just now.
Jiang Xiaoxiao nodded, "I was born in the Year of the Pisces, and so is my niece! We are of the same zodiac sign. Niuniu, you must strive to be as beautiful, smart and cute as your aunt. Your aunt loves you the most."
Unexpectedly, the bubbles in Niu Niu's mouth suddenly burst, and then she stared with her round eyes and made a sound like "hmm" from her mouth.
It seemed like an answer to Jiang Xiaoxiao, which made both Jiang Xin and Jiang Xiaoxiao laugh.
Qin Dazhuang came back with a look of despair on his face.
His mother scolded him badly outside.
He started with the old-fashioned complaints and grievances.
Qin Dazhuang felt like his head was about to explode.
Jiang Xiaoxiao accompanied her second sister and coaxed the child.
By the afternoon, Fan Xiuying had already arrived at the hospital with chicken soup.
Not only did they bring chicken soup, but they also brought millet porridge and eggs. For them, millet porridge and eggs are good for nourishing the body during the confinement period.
But it is not easy to have millet porridge and eggs these days.
They had run out of these things at home a long time ago, so Fan Xiuying went to borrow some from her neighbors and a few acquaintances, and borrowed some tickets to buy millet and eggs, as her daughter was about to recuperate after giving birth, so she had to make a decision.
Even if others don't feel sorry for her daughter, she certainly feels sorry for her own daughter. How can she not eat something good after just giving birth to a child?
Fan Xiuying didn't see anyone from the Qin family, so she was surprised. "Da Zhuang, your mother didn't come?"
My daughter-in-law has given birth to a child, so it’s impossible for her not to come.
Qin Dazhuang blushed, "Mom, my mom...is...coming."
She was as restrained as a young wife. What could Qin Dazhuang say?
That's my own mother.
Could it be that his mother thought he was giving birth to a girl and went back angrily?
Jiang Xiaoxiao spoke for him.
"Mom, my brother-in-law's mother is really fierce. When she came, she just said 'unlucky star' and left. I saw her scolding my brother-in-law. Mom, my sister's mother-in-law is not angry because my second sister gave birth to a daughter, right? Doesn't the government advocate gender equality? It's the same whether you have a son or a daughter?"
She just doesn't mind big things.
Jiang Xin was speechless, she was her sister.
"Mom, it's okay, my mother-in-law is like that!"
"Your mother-in-law is really something, Da Zhuang, your mother is not right. It's not like we don't have grandsons at home, so what's wrong with giving birth to a granddaughter? But her nose is not a nose and her face is not a face, and she is a jinx! How can you talk like that? It's not like you can't have children. There are many cases where the first child blooms first and then bears fruit. This is a good sign. If you also learn your mother's feudal ideas, I will not forgive you."
Fan Xiuying has to help her daughter make the decision, otherwise it would be too painful if her son-in-law bullies her.
It's not like Fan Xiuying hasn't suffered this kind of loss before. She gave birth to two daughters before, and she never saw her mother-in-law throwing pots and bowls, which made her very angry.
Qin Dazhuang quickly expressed his opinion, "Mom, I'm not that kind of person! It doesn't matter whether I have a boy or a girl! I like both, and a daughter is good too! I definitely won't do that. It's just that my mom is always thinking, don't be angry, my mom is just a sharp-tongued person, as the saying goes, a sharp tongue but a soft heart, I will definitely take good care of Jiang Xin and the child, I will definitely not treat Jiang Xin badly."
All that's missing is an oath.
Fan Xiuying sighed, everyone has come this far step by step.
Is it possible that we can't live our lives because of this?
I am the mother, so I can only ask them to take care of my daughter more.
If they don't feel sorry, who will?
Jiang Xin held Fan Xiuying's hand, "Mom, it's okay, I'm not angry, and you shouldn't be angry either. Mom, you can go back. You've been tired all day. Xiao Xiao can go back with you. I have Da Zhuang here. Besides, the doctor said that the recovery is going well. We will be discharged in two days, so don't worry."
She didn't want her mother to be here. Who wouldn't be angry seeing this?
Fan Xiuying watched her daughter finish her meal and asked Qin Dazhuang to clean up the leftovers before taking her little daughter home.
Sighing.
Who makes people like boys nowadays?
A woman who cannot give birth to a son is like a hen that cannot lay eggs.
Jiang Xiaoxiao feels sorry for Fan Xiuying. In fact, her parents have worried about their four children all their lives.
Return home.
Jiang Laoshi and Jiang Lei are at home.
Jiang Laoshi cooked the meal and knew that his wife took their daughter to the hospital.
When the second daughter gave birth, she naturally knew that the mother and daughter had not eaten.
Nowadays there is no man who can't cook.
In the past, both husband and wife worked, and it was up to the person who got home first to cook.
As soon as he saw his daughter-in-law coming back, he hurriedly brought the food over.
"Eat the porridge and steamed buns. How is it? Did Jiang Xin give birth to a boy or a girl?"
Jiang Lei had no idea.
Fan Xiuying answered gloomily while eating.
"She gave birth to a girl. Didn't you see that her mother-in-law immediately turned her face away and left as soon as she heard that she had a girl? She didn't even care about it. I just felt so sorry for her. She must be suffering during the confinement period."
You should feel sorry for your own daughter.
Jiang Laoshi was speechless. He felt sorry for his daughter, but he couldn't say that the in-laws were wrong.
Nowadays, it’s not just one family that favors boys over girls.
Every household is like this.
It is also impossible to say who is wrong.
"Hey! You should check more often. I'm going to go to the chicken farm in the next two days. I'll see if I can get some eggs for my daughter and two chickens. Uncle Baohe will definitely prepare some for us. Remember to bring me some money."
The only good thing about Jiang Laoshi is that he has good relationships with people, is friendly to everyone, and is willing to help everyone.
The advantage of this is that sometimes you don’t need a ticket and can get something with the minimum amount of money.
Eggs like these are only one cent cheaper than eggs sold outside.
This is an incredible skill.
