"Shengnan, Dad has no choice. Without a son, Dad can't stand up straight. Every time I go back home, I am laughed at. Dad feels bad, but I just want to save face."

Father Bi couldn't help but tell his daughter his true feelings. He also knew that it was dangerous for his wife to give birth at an advanced age, but he just wanted to take a chance, just in case everything was okay.

"Giving birth to a son will give you a chance to show off? Can you guarantee that your son will become a useful person? What if he turns out to be a prodigal son who has all the five evils? Your little fortune is not enough for him to squander!"

Bi Shengnan was furious when she heard this. Giving birth to a son is a sign of success? Damn, isn't it just an extra two pounds of meat? What's the big deal! "You and your sister are both promising. There will be no prodigal sons in our family!" Bi's father was full of confidence.

The eldest daughter is a technical secondary school student. After graduation, she works as a nurse in the county people's hospital. She is married to a doctor and is considered a decent person. She lives a good life. Not to mention the youngest daughter, who is a top student at a prestigious university and receives scholarships every year. She has a bright future.

His son will definitely be good.

Bi Shengnan sneered, "That's not necessarily true. All nine sons of a dragon are different. Our family's genes aren't that good either. Isn't there a scumbag among your cousins ​​who loves eating, drinking, whoring and gambling? This shows that the Bi family has this gene. You and my mother had a child in our old age, so you must have spoiled my brother like the apple of your eye. A loving mother often spoils her son. Add to that a loving father like you, and there's a 70% to 80% chance that he will be spoiled into a prodigal son."

Father Bi was so upset that he couldn't help but ask, "Why don't you hope that your brother will have a bright future?"

"I'm really looking forward to it, but I have no say on whether he will succeed or not. I'm just stating the objective facts." Bi Shengnan said coldly.

Father Bi was speechless and sulked for a long time before he said angrily, "If I don't have another son, I won't be able to keep the homestead in my hometown."

"How can we not protect it? The deed belongs to our family, who dares to rob it?"

"Who made me not have a son? People have said that our family has no son and will have no descendants. There is no need to give me a homestead. The land in my hometown will also be taken back and distributed to your uncles and aunts."

Father Bi then explained the reason. When he returned to his hometown a while ago, the village chief talked to him and revealed this. Of course he disagreed, but the village chief stopped him with just one sentence.

"Who told you that you don't have a son?"

Bi's father retorted at the time: "My daughter is promising and more useful than any man."

"No matter how promising she is, she will be married to someone else sooner or later. She will not be a member of our Bi family."

The village chief replied slowly, and Bi's father was speechless and had to return in shame.

"Not long after I came back, your mother said she felt uncomfortable in her stomach. She went to the hospital for a check-up and got good news. This is God's will. I think this baby must be a son." Father Bi was very happy and his determination to have a son had not changed.

No matter how difficult it is, he still wants to have a son.

"Having a son will be able to support you and your sister in the future," Bi's father advised.

"Support? I don't dare to think about it. I can only rely on myself for everything. I will be back at the weekend."

Bi Shengnan hung up the phone. She had to go home and stop this.

Her mother's body couldn't bear to have another child, and she couldn't gamble her mother's life for a younger brother.

After hanging up the phone, Bi Shengnan was still very angry. She sat there sulking, with the food next to her getting cold.

"Don't be angry, the food is cold, do you want some instant noodles?"

He Yufei took out a pack of instant noodles and some boiled water that she had just poured.

"No, give me some water."

Bi Shengnan poured boiling water into the cold rice, turning it into soup. She ate it all because she couldn't waste food no matter how angry she was.

After finishing her meal, she felt much calmer, but she still couldn't concentrate on reading.

"Do your parents want to have a second child?" Jiang Hanyan asked.

"Well, I'm pregnant, a little over two months." Bi Shengnan frowned and became angry again.

"You are so old, what do your parents think? It is very dangerous for older mothers to give birth." Tian Xinxin couldn't understand, is it worth it to risk her life to have a son? Bi Shengnan sneered, "They just want to have a son. My sister's name is Pannan, and my name is Shengnan, you know how much they want to have a son."

When her eldest sister was born, she was also thinking of giving birth to a son, so she was named Pannan. Her mother had a heavy hemorrhage when she gave birth and almost lost her life. Her father had no choice but to name her Shengnan, hoping that she would have a better future than a man.

"So what are you going to do? It looks like your parents are determined."

"Go home and take my mother to have surgery. My mother has a bad heart and the risk is too great." Bi Shengnan said her plan. Even if her father hated her, she had to be the bad guy.

"Did your dad get upset? Did he suddenly have the crazy idea of ​​having a son?" Ji Weibo couldn't help but ask.

Bi Shengnan nodded. "Every year when I go back to my hometown, I get upset. This time, it was because my family wanted to wipe out my family and occupied my homestead and farmland. My father was upset, and my mother happened to find out she was pregnant, so he thought it was God's will."

"Why are you doing this? It's too feudal. Why can't daughters get a share of the land? It makes me so angry."

Tian Xinxin became angry when she heard this. She didn't expect that even after Hong Kong's return to China, there would still be such a feudal village. It was so infuriating.

"It's the same where I live. The preference for boys over girls is very serious in rural areas," said He Yufei.

"It's the same over here," Liu Lingna also said.

"It's the same in my hometown. My previous name was Zhaodi. I changed my current name later." Jiang Hanyan curled her lips.

Everyone was silent. It turned out that the situation was the same all over the country.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

"The status of women can only be improved by women themselves, don't rely on men." Bi Shengnan said firmly.

The reason why she studied so hard was to prove to others that she could definitely beat men!

"That's right, we women have to rely on ourselves. We can't rely on anyone else!" Tian Xinxin nodded vigorously. She also wanted to be an independent woman who was self-reliant and strong.

"I'll come over to your place to play on the weekend." Jiang Hanyan said with a smile.

Bi Shengnan was stunned for a moment, then smiled and nodded, "Okay!"

“I want to go too!”

Tian Xinxin and Ji Wei Bo both clamored to go, Sheng Baojun also expressed his desire to go. Bi Shengnan's eyes were filled with tears, she knew what her roommates meant, they wanted to support her.

He Yufei and Liu Lingna also wanted to go, but they had to go to work.

After school, Jiang Hanyan first went to the house of the woman she bumped into in the morning. Following the address the woman gave her, she quickly found it. It was on the first floor, and there were a lot of dried radishes drying at the door.

Jiang Hanyan knocked on the door.

"Who is it?"

It was an old lady, and her voice was not friendly.

"I'm looking for Zhou Shuzhen." Jiang Hanyan said politely.

“Not here!”

The old lady replied in a harsh voice, and then the sound of a child crying was heard. The child sounded young, only two or three years old.

"Cry, cry, cry, you silly girl, all you do is cry every day. You've cried away all the good fortune in our family. If you cry again, I'll beat you to death!"

The old lady scolded very harshly, and the little girl cried even louder, obviously she was scared.

There were slapping sounds in the room. It was obvious that the old lady was really beating the child. The little girl was crying breathlessly, but the old lady did not stop and kept beating her.

Jiang Hanyan frowned, hesitating whether to call the police. Then a burst of hurried footsteps came over, and the woman Zhou Shuzhen from the morning hurried back, carrying a bag.

To be continued tomorrow
