Wear the book and be reborn as a group favorite for 50 people

1976 was destined to be an extraordinary year. Major events occurred one after another from January to May. Being in the tide of this era, Tang Xin was inevitably affected.

These past few months were filled with grief, but there was also some good news. Tang Xin found out she was pregnant in March, which added a little joy to the depression. Mr. Tang was also in a much better mood.

When Tang Xin told her family the good news, Mr. and Mrs. Tang even wanted to come over to see her.

But the two elderly people were old after all. Although Henan Province was not far from Beijing, I was worried that they could not bear the fatigue from the journey, so I had to work hard to persuade them to stay.

Tang Xin couldn't interfere with what was happening outside, as her elders took care of everything. She told her grandfather everything she needed to know and could say. With her grandfather as the stabilizing force in charge, she felt relieved and could concentrate on being a pregnant woman, taking good care of the little baby in her belly.

The baby’s due date is October. The whole family is looking forward to the arrival of this baby. New life always brings hope to people.

Although she is just an ordinary person, she tried her best.

Originally, all this was just history to Tang Xin, but after being in the middle of it, she realized that hearing the bad news was like the sky falling for the people.

But looking at her big belly, she could only sigh. For the sake of this little guy, she had to endure it.

As long as people are alive, there is hope. This is the best outcome.

"Tangbao, come and eat some fruit. Don't crave those heavy-tasting foods all day. Don't let my sweet granddaughter get a rash."

After knowing Tang Xin's due date, Tang's mother asked for leave from school early to take care of Tang Xin.

Tang Xin had done an ultrasound before and knew that she was carrying a girl, which made everyone in the family very happy.

Needless to say, the Jiang family had few children, so they liked both boys and girls. Du Qifang, my cousin from my eldest aunt's family, finally married Xiao Xu, whom she loved. With Tang Xin's help, their marriage went smoothly. They gave birth to a son last year, and they lived happily.

My aunt Jiang Xueqin finally married Ma Ming as she wished, but Grandpa Jiang was still not very happy. After all, his daughter married the grandson of an old comrade-in-arms, and he always felt that it was a downgrade. However, he endured it for the sake of his daughter's happiness.

Grandpa Ma also said that they were talking about their own things, and Grandpa Jiang was in a better mood.

As for the Tang family, what they lack the most is, of course, girls. Since Tang's father's generation, there is only one girl in Tang Xin's generation.

As for the brothers, they had many children, but they were all boys. Every time Mrs. Tang saw the Chen family's baby Wanzhen, she was very fond of her and really hoped to have a little great-granddaughter. But the grandchildren were not very good.

"Knowing that you were pregnant with a girl, your grandmother wanted to come over."

Tang's mother also found it funny when she talked about her mother-in-law, saying that her mother-in-law only liked girls.

Tang Xin also thought of what the old lady had repeatedly told her on the phone and smiled.

"But seriously, your Tang family is really in trouble. There was a girl in Tang Bao's generation, but how come there is no girl in this generation?"

Jiang's mother brought Xiaobao over and fed him fruit.

"Who knows? You said that in the next generation, the eldest family will have two children, the second family will have two children, and the remaining family will have one child. They are all boys, but there is no girl."

When talking about this, Tang’s mother also sighed. She really didn’t know what was going on. Was it because the Tang family had good feng shui?

"Everyone envies the Tang family, but you don't care about anything. You really don't care about anything when you have too much."

Sister Zheng also came over to chat. Who doesn't like more boys? Except for the Tang family, everyone prefers girls. They really don't care about anything.

Everyone laughed after hearing what Sister Zheng said. Indeed, with so many boys in the family, it is not a rare thing. My brothers’ families all have boys, so it is so lively when they go home for the New Year.

Tang Xin was eating fruit, but what she was thinking about was hot pot, the spicy Sichuan hot pot, and the fruit seemed less tasty.

She wanted to eat all kinds of heavy-tasting food, hot pot, maocai, malatang, all kinds of fried food, skewers, fried chicken, oh, just thinking about it made her saliva flow.

But I don’t know where my mother and her family heard it from, but eating too much spicy food is not good for the baby and may cause rashes when the baby is born, so they have been controlling her diet.

At most, she can eat some fried food. Although the life is much better now than in previous years, the resources are not very abundant. There is oil at home, but she always fries things, which she thinks is a waste.

"Mom, how about we have hot dishes tonight?"

Tang Xin has been thinking about it these past few days. If she is not allowed to eat hotpot, it should be okay to eat malatang, right?

She had made Malatang before, but it couldn’t be called Malatang. She couldn’t explain where the name came from. She could only say it was a hot dish.

Seeing Tang Xin's eager eyes, Tang's mother thought for a while and calculated that she would give birth soon. Moreover, she had been controlling Tang Xin's diet since she had her period. It was okay to eat occasionally.

"Old Chen, Tangbao has been controlling her diet for a while. Let's put less spiciness in the hot dish and let the child eat it for once."

Mother Jiang felt a little reluctant when she saw Tang Xin's expression. She thought it was okay to eat less.

"Okay, let's have hot dishes. I happened to have brought some ingredients that Lao Tang cooked himself, so we can use that to make hot dishes."

Tang's mother spoke up and said that this time Tang's father specially cooked the hot pot base for Tang Bao and put less chili in it.

"That's great, thank you both moms."

Tang Xin was delighted when she heard this. She stood up and started to prepare. Really, after she got pregnant with this baby, she was particularly greedy and couldn't control her craving for spicy food. Is it really sour men and spicy women? But I didn't notice it when I was pregnant with Xiaobao.

"Hey, hey, hey, hurry up and sit down. You are not needed for anything in the kitchen. Just sit still."

Seeing that she was about to get up, Sister Zheng quickly spoke up. "Don't work if you have a big belly."

"That's right. There are several of us at home. Why would we need you? You and Xiaobao can enjoy the fruit quietly while we go and get busy."

Mother Jiang also spoke. She put Xiaobao next to Tang Xin and followed her to the kitchen.

"Xiaobao, eat fruit with mommy obediently and watch mommy order."

Mother Tang also told Xiaobao about this, and then she went to look for the ingredients for the hot pot base.

"Okay, I got it, grandma. Don't worry, I'll look after mom."

Jiang Xiaobao is four years old and is old enough to go to kindergarten.

After hearing the conversation between mother and son, Tang Xin was speechless. She then looked down at her stomach and could only sit obediently with Xiaobao to eat fruit.

When Jiang Wenbai returned home, he saw his three elders busy in the kitchen, while his wife and children were sitting in a row eating fruit.
