Reborn with a Cell Phone 2007

"Tsk, this ending is really boring."

Qin Rong said this and threw the book in her hand away, without any reluctance in her action.

Ji Shumiao was puzzled: "Isn't this a happy ending good?"

"What's good about it?" Qin Rong frowned with disdain. "She has unified the world and become the empress, but the final point is to have children. Let the man rule the world while you stay at home and have children."

Ji Shumiao: "..."

Qin Rong continued to complain: "And yesterday's book was the same. It's the interstellar age, and technology has developed to the point where time and space can be transferred. But the heroine is still pregnant and giving birth in the end. It's outrageous."

Ji Shumiao: "...Mom, you are so cool."

Qin Rong sighed and said, "If having children is good, then those scientists should have racked their brains to study how to make men have children."

These words came from a mother who was in confinement after giving birth to her second child, and they sounded very strange.

Ji Shumiao couldn't help but ask: "Then you still want to have two children?"

Qin Rong sighed softly: "It was not my subjective initiative to have two children."

Ji Shumiao tilted his head, his eyes full of confusion: "Hmm?"

Qin Rong held her hand and squeezed it: "It is said that women will forget the pain of childbirth after giving birth. I will tell you in detail while I still remember it."

Ji Shumiao was also very curious, so he sat up straight, knelt cross-legged on the bed, and waited for her to speak with an obedient look.

In the next forty-five minutes, Qin Rong talked about everything from the hardships of pregnancy to the delivery process, and then to the physical changes after giving birth. She spoke in great detail, gesticulating and getting more and more excited.

Ji Shumiao frowned and showed a mask of pain when he heard this.

"In short, giving birth is painful and undignified." Qin Rong looked at her daughter helplessly with a sad face. "I'll tell you the truth. I won't pretend that motherly love is selfless and great. I regretted giving birth to you and Tongtong. I regretted giving birth to Tongtong only when I felt uncomfortable. As for giving birth to you, I have regretted it since I became pregnant with you until now."

"Hmm?" Ji Shumiao hugged her arm, "Why?"

Qin Rong patted her hands and said, "It's not because you regret it, but because of me. When I married your father, I was not even 19 years old. At that time, people in the countryside got married at an early age. Many people got married at this age, and then got a marriage certificate when they were older. Your father was very impatient. After coaxing your grandparents, he coaxed me. I nodded without thinking. There was no contraceptive method at that time. I got pregnant with you almost as soon as I got married."

"Of course I like your father, but I was not mentally prepared for marriage and pregnancy. I fainted in the field and only found out I was pregnant when I was sent to the health station." Qin Rong still felt a lot of emotion when she talked about those things. "When I woke up and knew I was pregnant, my first reaction was not happiness, but fear and tears. I wondered how I could be pregnant, and there was a person in my belly."

Qin Rong gestured at her belly with both hands, and Ji Shumiao couldn't help laughing.

"Your aunt almost had an accident when she gave birth to Langge. I was traumatized at the time and had nightmares several times."

Ji Shumiao hugged her arm and rubbed it: "Then how dare you give birth to me at home? You didn't even go to the hospital."

"We were poor." Qin Rong lowered her eyes. "When I married your father and built a house, we emptied out all his family savings. Not long after I became pregnant with you, your great-grandmother fell ill again. If it weren't for your grandparents' help, we wouldn't have been able to make a living. We were so poor that the whole family could only come up with five dollars."

Fortunately, there is no need to worry about food and drink in the countryside. There is grain in the barn and vegetables in the vegetable garden. It is enough to keep warm, but it is only enough to keep warm.

Ji Shumiao asked: "Grandma, didn't you think about digging out some gold?"

"How would I know what she was thinking?" Qin Rong's tone was not full of resentment, only confusion. "She is really patient. But think about it, the countryside back then was not like it is now. Everyone went to the city, leaving only the elderly. How many eyes were watching in the village back then? Even things like which chicken laid how many eggs yesterday and what color they were, everyone in the village knew clearly."

"Your grandfather was still working at the brick factory at the time, and he was determined to get your father in as a porter. Because of this, he was reported and criticized."

There are only so many jobs in a small brick factory, and there are not enough for the villagers to share. And yet they are occupied by outsiders. Naturally, the people of Qinjiawan are unwilling to agree.

Anyway, there was a commotion, and the factory director Qin Sheng lost his prestige and was removed from his position soon after.

Ji Shumiao listened attentively, her eyes never blinking. Her bright eyes and white teeth made Qin Rong very happy. She hugged her tightly and continued, "Your father also wanted to go to the city to work, but I didn't let him go. I was very troubled at that time. In today's words, it is prenatal anxiety. I was unhappy and tormented your father all day long. Your father's temper was not as good as it is now. We often quarreled and wanted to divorce."

"Divorce is definitely not going to happen. I cry every time after a quarrel. Your father tries hard to comfort me, but he is not good at speaking and nothing he says touches my heart. Your grandmother tries to persuade both sides and gets very anxious." Qin Rong laughed. Those difficult years now seem like beautiful memories.

"A poor couple has many worries. When this family is poor, there are countless conflicts and problems. Everything is a big deal. Even if I throw away two extra old leaves when picking vegetables, I can quarrel. At that time, how could I not regret getting married and getting pregnant?"

"What happened next?" Ji Shumiao asked.

"Then you were born, and I regretted it even more. You looked like a sick little cat, skinny, small, and wrinkled." Qin Rong exhaled a suppressed breath and patted her daughter in her arms, "I regretted giving birth to you to suffer when I had nothing."

Ji Shumiao sat up from her arms and said seriously, "I really don't feel like I've suffered. Really, I always feel like I'm very happy. I'm a happy child."

"That's because you're sensible." Qin Rong's lips curled up. "They say that only when you raise a child do you know the kindness of your parents, but I only realized after I raised you that it's not like that. Parents love their children with kindness and affection, but not kindness. You pushed a person who couldn't swim into the water and then rescued him. Is that kindness?"

Ji Shumiao shook his head: "No."

"I gave birth to a child who had no ability to survive, raised her, and taught her how to survive in society. How can that be considered a favor?" Qin Rong held Ji Shumiao's hand and continued, "It is said that children choose their parents themselves, but that is nonsense and self-deception. If children can choose, who would not choose to be born into a wealthy family? They would rather choose not to give birth than to suffer poverty and hardship."

"Children cannot choose whether to be born or not, but parents can choose whether and when to give birth!" Qin Rong curled her lips and changed the subject: "I didn't choose either time."

Ji Shumiao laughed: "Hehe, so mom, are you teaching me your experience of failure?"

"Yes. In fact, Tongtong came too suddenly, which caught your father and I off guard. We didn't sleep for a few nights, and we considered all aspects. We were most worried that you didn't like your sister, or that you two didn't get along well, or what if your father and I were biased and ignored you imperceptibly?"

"You are not as lucky as that little girl. You were born when our family was rich and prosperous, and you have suffered so much with us."

"Nonsense, it's obvious that I'm luckier than Tongtong, and I've enjoyed the love of my parents for so much longer."

"At that time I said if you don't like your sister, we won't have her. I was telling the truth. I even hoped you would tell us you don't like her, so that I would have a legitimate reason not to have this child. But then I thought, how could I put the blame on you? I really shouldn't have done that. At that time I was really, conflicted... I got rich."

In the minds of Qin Rong and Ji Zhenhua, they don’t want a child, but to bring a healthy and independent person into this world. What they have to take responsibility for is a person’s life.

"My dear, I hope you won't be like me, being pushed forward without knowing what's going on. You have a wild mind and shouldn't be held back by marriage and childbirth. I tell you all this, the truth about childbirth and my journey, because I hope that your decision to become a mother in the future will be a well-thought-out and courageous one."

The stories passed down between other mothers and daughters were all fertility scams, but Qin Rong did not lie to her and told her everything directly.

"Mom, I love you so much." Ji Shumiao threw himself into her arms.

"Mom loves you so much, too. When you have a baby in the future, you must love your baby as much as mom loves you."

Ji Shumiao chuckled: "Then I want my baby to love his grandma as much as I love her."

"Okay." Qin Rong smiled and scratched her nose.

Isn't this how blood inheritance should be?
