Chapter 467: Son and Daughter
Mrs. Zhao also quickly checked and said anxiously, "You two take the children out first. The second little one will be here soon."
Mrs. He and Mrs. Mo glanced at He Zhiran, gave her an encouraging look, and then left with the child.
The birth of the second baby went even smoother than that of the first baby. He Zhiran had experience, and she didn't feel too exhausted.
As soon as the midwife told her to push harder, she cooperated with all her might.
Just with this one push, the second baby was born.
The midwife said excitedly: "Congratulations, congratulations, the second baby is a girl. Congratulations to you and your wife on having a son and a daughter."
During the Dashun Dynasty, only the royal family could use the words dragon and phoenix. Ordinary people did not dare to mention these two words, as it might bring about fatal disaster.
He Zhiran lay there quietly with her eyes closed, and she was filled with joy when she heard the midwife tell her that she had given birth to another daughter.
She has modern thinking and has no special ideas about whether to have a boy or a girl.
In her heart, as long as the child is healthy, it doesn't matter whether it is a boy or a girl.
Because of this, when she did her own pregnancy checkup in the clinic, she never deliberately checked the gender of the baby.
Even so, she was still surprised to hear that she had given birth to twins, a boy and a girl.
Having two children at once is a blessing from God, and having both sons and daughters is complete. Who would not be happy?
However, when she gave birth to her second child, she had completely used up all her energy and didn't even have the strength to open her eyes to look at her daughter.
In a daze, she could feel the midwife helping her clean her body, and Mo Jiuye was wiping her with a handkerchief. She even seemed to feel a drop of warm tear dripping on her cheek.
Mo Jiuye couldn't hold back his tears in the end.
He was the one who witnessed the entire delivery process of his daughter-in-law, and no one knew the hardships and pain involved better than him.
He felt sorry for his wife, who had to endure so much pain alone in order to help him give birth to children.
Mo Jiuye had secretly vowed in his heart that in order to prevent his wife from getting pregnant again, he would rather be a monk for the rest of his life...
In fact, Mo Jiuye is really a novice in this area.
He didn't even think about the fact that his sisters-in-law were secretly given infertile drugs by the Queen, and the doctors in the clinic could also prescribe some contraceptive soups, so it wasn't difficult for them not to have children.
In short, as long as his wife no longer suffers, he doesn't care about anything else.
Just now, Mrs. Zhao also realized that Mo Jiuye, as a father, didn't know how to hold a baby at all. She wrapped the second baby up and placed him next to He Zhiran.
Because Zhao Wenpo had deep-rooted ideas and she herself favored boys over girls, when she saw He Zhiran gave birth to a girl, she thought that the Mo family would not take it seriously, so she did not show as much excitement as when Dabao was born.
This was indeed the case in ancient times. When she helped other people give birth, the wages she received were different for boys and girls.
Families that give birth to a boy will try their best to give him more, no matter how poor they are.
It is different for those who give birth to a girl. Even though the family is not short of money, some people are unwilling to give more money, and even want to give less.
Unexpectedly, when the people waiting outside heard that He Zhiran had given birth to a baby girl, they all rushed in.
Madam Mo was surprisingly not as dignified as before.
"Where is my darling granddaughter? Where is the darling granddaughter Ranran gave birth to me?"
As she said this, the fat grandson who was sleeping in her arms no longer felt sweet and was sent directly into Mrs. He's arms.
Although the other female members of the Mo family did not speak, their eager eyes showed how eager they were to see their little niece.
The actions of the Mohist women left Zhao Wenpo stunned.
What are these people going to do?
Why does it look like they are trying to snatch the child?
She subconsciously glanced at the sleeping baby lying next to He Zhiran. After a moment of hesitation, she picked up the child stiffly.
She brought the child to Madam Mo.
"Your granddaughter is here, fair and clean, as beautiful as her mother. Also, congratulations on the safety of both the big one and the small one."
Madam Mo took the child from Zhao Wenpo's arms, sat beside He Zhiran's bed, and said softly:
"Ran Ran is the lucky star of our Mo family. Not only does she bring blessings to the Mo family, but she herself is also blessed. After committing a sin once, she now has both a son and a daughter. This is something that others dare not even think about."
The second sister-in-law also came forward and echoed:
"Mother is right. I have long seen that my ninth brother's wife is extremely blessed."
As she was talking, she wanted to go over and take a look at her little niece, but before she got close, she was stopped by several sisters-in-law behind her.
"Second sister-in-law, my niece belongs to everyone. If we want to watch, we can watch together. Please leave some space for us."
"Yeah, you've blocked my ninth sister-in-law's view. I still want to see her!"
“…”
Although the women spoke quietly, Mrs. Mo was still afraid that they would disturb He Zhiran's rest.
She quickly stood up holding Erbao.
"All of you go out. Don't disturb your ninth brother and sister-in-law from resting here. If you want to see Erbao, go out and see him."
She finally realized that her daughters-in-law, like her, all liked girls, and if she didn't let them see it first, they would definitely continue to make a fuss.
Mrs. He held Dabao in her arms and watched a group of people escorting Erbao out. Then she looked at Dabao in her arms. Why didn't she feel happy anymore?
No, Dabao is also popular, but my mother-in-law gave birth to so many sons, but only Mo Hanyue is a daughter, so the girl in their family must be popular.
Thinking that her darling grandson might fall out of favor just after he was born, Mrs. He couldn't help but worry about the child.
She hugged Dabao tighter and whispered softly.
"Our Dabao is the best. Grandma likes you."
Dabao didn't know that on the first day of his birth, his beloved grandmother had already imagined him as an unloved child...
Mo Jiuye was also happy because he had both a son and a daughter.
However, seeing his wife's haggard appearance, he had no heart to look after his two children.
He stayed by her side silently. Although he couldn't share her pain, he could feel more at ease.
Zhao Wenpo helped He Zhiran clean up quickly, and after giving Mo Jiuye some instructions, she walked out of the house with a grin on her face.
This was the first time in her life that she successfully delivered twins, and both were safe.
Just this one thing is enough to make her famous in the surrounding villages and make those midwives who are always competing with her for business jealous to death.
Although the weather outside is warm, it is a newborn baby after all.
Madam Mo had already taken Erbao to another room, and the female relatives were surrounding her to look after him.
"Mom, my little niece is so beautiful. Her eyebrows and eyes are exactly the same as my ninth brother's wife."
"My little niece will definitely be a beauty when she grows up."
"Mom, can I hold my niece too?"
"Mom, do you think my niece is smiling?"
“…”
