"Grandpa, I'm so sorry, wuwu. Actually, my grandson's wife also wants to have a baby and give the Gu family a big fat boy. But, isn't it fate?"
The wives of the four Gu Dazhu brothers were crying with red eyes.
They have been married for nearly a year, but they haven't gotten pregnant in such a long time. They are under great psychological pressure.
They have heard that people in the village now say that they are hens that don't lay eggs. Every time they see their husbands being laughed at by the people in the village, saying that they are so old now and still don't have a son, they still feel very uncomfortable.
Gu Yu'an saw his four grandsons and daughters-in-law crying, so he frowned, raised his head, and sighed helplessly. His four grandsons and
granddaughters-in-law were not good enough, and he still couldn't hold his great-grandson. He was so anxious that he was like an ant on a hot pot.
He couldn't help it any longer, so he stretched out his hand, pointed at his four granddaughters-in-law and cursed, "You are obviously young girls like flowers, but how can you not compare to your mother-in-law who is already over 30 years old?! I have lived to this age, and I have never seen such useless women as you..."
"You are really blind, blind, it's unfortunate for the family! Why did our Gu family spend so much money to marry you?..."
Seeing their grandfather's heartbroken look, the four girls, who had long been unable to bear the psychological pressure, couldn't help crying at this time. They
were about to collapse, really about to collapse.
In recent months, not only their husbands stared at their bellies every day, urging them to have a baby, but even their father-in-law and great-grandfather-in-law urged them all day long.
They really wanted to have a son...
After sitting there crying all night, the women didn't even have breakfast the next day.
By noon, two of them fainted on the ground.
Seeing their pale faces, Gu Yu'an, after hysterically scolding them for being useless, finally took out some of his own private savings with a painful look on his face.
He had to take out his private money.
He had to take out some money to see his four grandsons and daughters-in-law. To see what was wrong with their bodies.
He didn't want anything to happen to these women.
As Gu Yu'an got older, he became more and more stingy and thrifty.
He had a clearer idea about marrying a wife.
He felt that it was best for the woman he married into his family to be safe. Especially a woman who could bear children.
If something happened to his grandsons' wives, he would have to marry another wife, and he didn't know how much money it would cost. When
Gu Yu'an thought about the money his grandsons had spent on marrying wives, he felt heartbroken.
"Alas, these women are still too expensive..."
"They can't make much money even if they work in the fields every day. They can't support the family at all..."
Gu Yu'an thought of his granddaughters-in-law who could not bring huge income to the family. He took a deep breath and kept comforting himself in his heart, "Forget it, it's a blessing to suffer losses, it's a blessing to suffer losses..."
Gu Yu'an lived to the age of sixty or seventy, and his male chauvinism was still particularly serious.
Although he was not very capable, he was often said by the villagers to be an honest and loyal person who knew how to live. However, he always looked down on women. He
always felt that women were useless except for giving birth to children.
However, people in and outside the village knew that a man like Gu Yu'an, who could not support his family, was born to be a bachelor.
If Gu Yu'an had not been lucky enough to save his wife, Yu, from the water and have a physical relationship with her, it would be hard to explain why he would have been a bachelor for the rest of his life.
...
After Gu Yu'an invited a barefoot doctor who was not particularly respectable, he rubbed his hands nervously, walked back and forth, and was particularly uneasy.
He hoped that these four granddaughters-in-law did not have any problems.
Even if they did have problems, it would be best if they could be cured by spending a few coins and buying a dose of medicine.
If they get seriously ill, he will have to give up on them.
...
Time passed slowly.
Soon, Gu Yu'an saw the barefoot female doctor with gray hair, slowly walking out of the house with a warm smile on her face.
"Congratulations, congratulations."
"Brother, your four granddaughters-in-law are all pregnant now... It's really a blessing in disguise, this is a great thing!"
Gu Yu'an was shocked when he heard the news. He didn't expect that his granddaughters-in-law fainted on the ground for this reason.
When he thought that they were all carrying big fat boys in their bellies, Gu Yu'an smiled.
The wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were about to pinch mosquitoes to death.
"Hahaha, that's great, it's really great."
After giving the barefoot old doctor 10 eggs, a pound of tofu, and three buns, he was so happy that he couldn't find his way.
"Good, good, hahaha, it's really great, it's really great, it turns out that you are so ambitious!"
The four young wives saw their grandfather-in-law was so happy that his teeth were exposed. They were also in an unusual mood and very happy.
At this moment, they felt that they had finally wiped out their shame and could finally hold their heads high.
"Grandpa, it is our duty as women to give birth to children for the Gu family. I can feel that the baby in my belly must be a big fat boy, and a scholar who can read."
"Grandpa, you are blessed, and this great blessing is still to come. As long as you live long, maybe one day in the future, you can see your great-grandson pass the imperial examination."
Gu Dazhu's daughter-in-law Jiang, who is worthy of being born in a farming and scholarly family,
is very fluent in talking about these unfounded big words.
These few short sentences really hit the nail on the head for Gu Yu'an.
Ever since he had some money and savings, Gu Yu'an not only cared more and more about his own face, but also about his family background and dignity.
He now looked down on his daughter-in-law who led his son to make a fortune, as well as her family.
Because he had heard many people in the village say it many times.
Those people said that his son made his fortune by relying on his mother-in-law...
