Having lived two lifetimes, I only just found out that my family actually has a tradition. Actually, I feel a bit of pressure for no reason.
With her youngest son performing well, Yu Mingxiang felt no pressure.
All the pressure fell on Gu Guanhai.
Because, upon learning that the little guy had inherited the Yu family's legacy, Old Yuan's mind immediately began to stir.
Especially after learning that Mei Fang had expressed a desire to marry the child in Yu Mingxiang's womb when she was pregnant, Old Yuan was speechless: "!!!"
He's really calculating things!
They were determined to finalize the marriage and seize the Yu family's inheritance!
Oh no!
Turning out is fine too!
Anyway, as long as the Yu and Yuan families can form a powerful alliance, Old Yuan, who originally planned to find a husband for his precious daughter in the future, is willing to compromise!
He was willing to compromise, but Gu Guanhai was not!
This little brat who caused his wife to suffer so much pain, even after she had to undergo surgery, wasn't something he particularly liked, even though he desperately wanted a daughter. But...
That doesn't stop him from being a hot commodity now!
The fact that the Yu family has a successor is no small matter.
Even Lao Yuan didn't dare to keep anything to himself; once he confirmed the matter, he reported it immediately.
Therefore...
Before Xiaoguang was even named and before Yu Mingxiang had finished her postpartum confinement, the Gu family's child who had inherited the Yu family's legacy was already well-known in certain circles!
Yu Chengping, busy working outside: "!!!"
He rushed back as soon as he learned that his sister had given birth.
The first thing he said to Yu Mingxiang was, "The Yu family has a successor, so are you going to stop pressuring me to get married?"
Upon hearing this, Yu Mingxiang exclaimed, "!!!"
Her pretty face immediately straightened.
"If you have the ability to make him take the surname Yu, I won't rush you!"
Upon hearing this, Yu Chengping exclaimed: "!!!"
His expression immediately hardened.
He subconsciously turned his head and glanced outside the door.
"Little sister, don't talk nonsense!"
After making sure no one had heard him, he patted his chest and said with lingering fear, "This is the only son of the Gu family, and I'm still standing on Gu family territory!"
"What would happen if my brother-in-law and in-laws heard me say that?"
"Wouldn't they tear me apart?"
Upon hearing this, Yu Mingxiang chuckled.
He gave a cold laugh and didn't reply.
She didn't know if Gu Guanhai would tear her apart.
But if her mother-in-law heard this, she would definitely tear her older brother apart!
Yu Chengping was the first to express his concern about his sister's condition.
People in Beijing didn't arrive as quickly as they had learned that Yu Mingxiang was going to have a double postpartum period.
However, those influential people obtained another important piece of information, which was...
The Yuan family intends to form a marriage alliance with the Gu family!
As soon as the news came out, countless people's minds were immediately stirred.
Especially after learning that Gu Guanhai had no intention of agreeing to the marriage, everyone in Beijing was astonished: "!!!"
If Gu Guanhai has no intention of marrying into the Yuan family, then they still have a chance!
Families with youngest daughters and granddaughters of marriageable age are overjoyed and eager to try.
Those families without daughters of marriageable age, after much agonizing thought, decided that having a daughter now might not be so bad!
Therefore...
Unbeknownst to Yu Mingxiang and Gu Guanhai, a wave of pregnancy preparations has swept through certain social circles in Beijing!
Moreover, this preparation for pregnancy is particularly targeted; everyone wants to have a daughter!
In this era where sons are generally favored over daughters, wanting to have a daughter sounds almost absurd, but...
That's the truth!
Not to mention others having designs on him, even Guo Ying was speechless.
Upon hearing the news, she immediately had an idea and that very night she washed herself clean and brought the food to Hao Li'an's lips.
Hao Li'an: ...
I didn't understand why my wife was being so proactive until...
"If I can't marry Old Gu, my daughter will definitely marry Old Gu's son!"
Guo Ying said this with a look of certainty.
Hao Li'an exclaimed upon hearing this: "!!!"
We're all totally confused!
"Our daughter?"
He thought about Old Gu's newborn son, then about his own daughter, and his lips twitched slightly. "Isn't Xiaoyun a bit too old? Even an old cow eating young grass doesn't eat like this!"
