Siheyuan: I am different He Yuzhu

Chapter 196: Dare to do and dare to take responsibility

Midwife Wang happily took the hard work fee from Jia Xudong, and then said: "I have done what I should do. Next, the mother needs to have a good rest and recuperation. It's time for me to leave." After that, Midwife Wang smiled and left the Jia family.

Jia Xudong shouted to the back of Midwife Wang: "Grandma Wang, thank you for your hard work. I won't see you off. I have to go see my wife."

"It's okay. Just go about your business." Midwife Wang said with regret. When she walked out of the middle courtyard and came to the front courtyard, she turned her head and looked behind her. Just as she was about to spit, she suddenly heard someone calling her, "Grandma Wang, what was the baby you just delivered?"

Midwife Wang looked in the direction of the voice and saw that it was Third Aunt Yang Suhua. Midwife Wang lowered her voice and whispered, "Just now, a girl was born in that family, but I think the woman's mother-in-law doesn't seem very happy."

When Third Aunt Yang Suhua heard that Qin Huairu had given birth to a daughter, she immediately smiled and said, "I was wondering why no one from the host family saw you off. It turns out that Qin Huairu gave birth to a daughter. The woman's mother-in-law wanted a grandson so much, but she was so happy to have a granddaughter. She is well-known in our courtyard for favoring boys over girls."

"I see her family already has a boy. Why does she need so many boys? There are too many boys these days. It won't be easy to get married when they grow up. One boy is enough. It's better to have more girls to enjoy the happiness." Midwife Wang said with emotion.

"Mrs. Jia Zhang doesn't think so. She wants more boys so that the family can be more lively." Third aunt Yang Suhua said with a smile.

"Okay, I won't talk to you anymore. I have to go home quickly." After saying that, Midwife Wang hurried towards the gate of the courtyard.

After walking out of the courtyard gate, Midwife Wang spat on the ground and said dissatisfiedly: "Bah, this family is so immoral. They don't even give me a bowl of hot water to drink. Such a family still wants a boy? Bah, dream on." After that, Midwife Wang walked home angrily.

After the figure of Midwife Wang disappeared from the courtyard, Third Aunt Yang Suhua muttered softly: "You wanted a grandson but ended up giving birth to a granddaughter. I wonder how you can still be so cocky, Jia Zhang? I think you, Jia Zhang, are destined to have only one grandson in this life. Haha..." After saying that, Yang Suhua covered her mouth and laughed.

On the other side, when Jia Zhang from the Jia family saw that midwife Wang had left, her expression suddenly changed and she said unhappily, "Qin Huairu is such a loser. How could she give birth to a money-losing thing? I clearly dreamed that it was a boy."

"Mom, it's the same for boys and girls, don't worry about it, and go get Huairu something to eat." Jia Xudong persuaded.

Seeing her son say that, Jia Zhang could only reluctantly go to the kitchen to make egg tea for Qin Huairu. Seeing that his mother Jia Zhang had already entered the kitchen, Jia Xudong walked into the inner room with peace of mind. When he entered the room and saw Qin Huairu lying on the kang with a weak face, Jia Xudong immediately asked with concern: "Huairu, how do you feel? I have asked my mother to make egg tea for you."

"I'm sorry, Brother Jia, I gave birth to a daughter for you but not a son, which made mom unhappy." Qin Huairu said with a disappointed look on her face.

"It's okay. We already have a penis, it doesn't matter whether it's a boy or a girl. Besides, we are still young. If we want a boy, we can have one later." Jia Xudong hurriedly comforted Qin Huairu.

After hearing what Jia Xudong said, Qin Huairu's expression immediately improved a lot. "Brother Jia, the child doesn't have a name yet. Please give our daughter a name." Qin Huairu said gently as she looked at her daughter beside her.

Jia Xudong thought for a while and said, "Let's call her Xiaodang. I hope our daughter can grow up to be someone who dares to do and take responsibility."

"Xiaodang." Qin Huairu read it once and felt it was good. She nodded and said to her daughter beside her: "You will be called Xiaodang from now on. Look at how nice the name your father gave you." After that, Qin Huairu looked at Jia Xudong and said firmly: "Brother Jia, don't worry, I will definitely give you another son."

"Let's talk about having a son later. Huairu, you should take care of your health first. Now is not the time to talk about this." Jia Xudong said with a smile.

"Well, Brother Jia, I'm a little tired. I want to take a nap."

"Then go to sleep. Mom will call you when she makes something delicious."

Lou Xiao'e, who was sitting at home watching the children, kept listening to the noise in the yard outside the house until she could no longer hear Qin Huairu's shouting and heard the baby's crying. She was relieved. Although she had a bad relationship with the Jia family, she was kind-hearted and still cared about Qin Huairu who was giving birth. She sincerely hoped that Qin Huairu could give birth to the baby safely. It was a pity that she had three children to take care of, so she couldn't go out to help.

When He Yuzhu got off work and returned to the courtyard in the evening, he pushed his bicycle to the front yard and saw Third Aunt Yang Suhua standing at the door of his house with a smile on her face. So He Yuzhu smiled and greeted Third Aunt Yang Suhua: "Third Aunt, have you eaten yet?"

"No, my husband Yan hasn't come back yet. I'll wait until he comes back. If I do it too early, it will be cold in a while."

"Third Aunt, why are you so happy today? Is there any good news?"

"No, why should I be happy?" Third Aunt Yang Suhua asked with a strange look on her face.

"Third aunt, you're still not happy. Your eyebrows are almost raised with joy." He Yuzhu smiled and pointed at Third aunt Yang Suhua's eyebrows.

"Haha, is there?" Third Aunt Yang Suhua touched her eyebrows subconsciously, "There is nothing happy in my family, but there is a happy event in your Central Courtyard."

"Oh, what's the happy event that can make your third aunt so happy?" He Yuzhu immediately became interested when he heard it.

"It's nothing. It's just that Jia Zhang's daughter-in-law gave birth to a granddaughter for her. Does this count as a happy event?" Third Aunt Yang Suhua said excitedly.

"This is a very happy event. Okay, Third Aunt, I have to go home to cook. I won't chat with you anymore." After saying that, He Yuzhu pushed his bicycle towards the central courtyard. He finally understood why Third Aunt Yang Suhua was so happy. Third Aunt Yang Suhua had always been at odds with Jia Zhang. Before Qin Huairu was born, Jia Zhang had been talking about wanting another grandson in the courtyard. In the end, the grandson didn't come, but a granddaughter came. Jia Zhang would definitely be unhappy. When Jia Zhang was unhappy, Third Aunt Yang Suhua would be happy. "They are all a bunch of boring people." He Yuzhu smiled and sighed.

As soon as He Yuzhu entered the house, Lou Xiao'e couldn't wait to come to his side and said, "Brother He, did you know that Qin Huairu gave birth today?"

"I know. I just entered the courtyard gate and ran into the three aunts in the front yard. They told me." He Yuzhu said with a smile, "Why are you suddenly concerned about this?"

"Brother He, don't you know that Qin Huairu gave birth to the baby in the yard? Her family didn't send her to the hospital at all. Aren't they afraid of accidents?" Lou Xiao'e said in disbelief.

"Xiao'e, many people give birth at home. That is to say, now that there are hospitals, people go to the hospital to give birth. In ancient times, when there were no hospitals, they would invite a midwife to give birth at home."

"That's it, I understand."

"But it's better to go to the hospital if possible. After all, if something happens, the hospital can provide emergency treatment."

"By the way, Brother He, did Third Aunt tell you whether Qin Huairu gave birth to a boy or a girl?" Lou Xiao'e asked curiously.

"I told you that Qin Huairu gave birth to a daughter this time."

"Hey, isn't that the same as what you said before? You actually guessed it right. Brother He, you are so awesome." Upon hearing this, Lou Xiao'e looked at He Yuzhu with admiration.

"I'm just guessing. It's either a boy or a girl. I have a 50% chance of success in guessing either one." He Yuzhu said with a wry smile.

"By the way, Brother He, you said that Qin Huairu's mother-in-law favors boys over girls. If Qin Huairu gives birth to a daughter, will her mother-in-law treat her badly?"

"Well, it won't be serious. At most, she is biased towards the little girl. She shouldn't be too harsh on Qin Huairu. Jia Zhangshi went too far and Jia Xudong couldn't stand it and said something bad about Jia Zhangshi."

"Is that so? Then I feel relieved. If a woman marries a man who doesn't support her, her life will be suffocating." Lou Xiao'e said with a worried look on her face.

"Haha, when you become a mother-in-law in the future, you have to be nice to your daughter-in-law." He Yuzhu said with a laugh.

After hearing what He Yuzhu said, Lou Xiao'e glanced at the three little guys who were playing, and said confidently: "Humph, I will definitely be a good mother-in-law by then."

Hearing this, He Yuzhu smiled and said, "It's not easy to be a good mother-in-law. If you want to be a good mother-in-law, you have to work much harder than most people."

"Brother He, why do you say that?" Lou Xiao'e asked He Yuzhu with a puzzled look on her face.

"You have three sons now. Even if each daughter-in-law only gave birth to one, you would have to take care of him three times during the confinement period, not to mention taking care of the baby. But don't forget that these three little guys were born together. If the three of them got married and had children together, just imagine that you would have to take care of three daughters-in-law during the confinement period at once." He Yuzhu explained with a smirk on his face.

"Ah, then how can I handle it? You can't split me into three." Lou Xiao'e was so frightened when she heard it.

"So, do you still want so many children now?" He Yuzhu continued to ask. "Do you still want to give me 8 sons now?"

When Lou Xiao'e saw He Yuzhu's pretending to be serious expression, she immediately realized that he was joking, so she said with a smile: "Brother He, you are so mean! How can you scare me like this? Although they are triplets, the possibility of them getting married and having children at the same time is extremely small. After all, such a coincidence is difficult to happen. Besides, if I am too busy, don't I still have you, my father-in-law? If it really doesn't work, I can also ask my aunt to help. As a punishment for scaring me, I decided to give birth to eight sons for you. By then, you will have to cook a big pot of rice every day, and you will be so tired that you can't straighten your back even if you cook." After saying these words, Lou Xiao'e felt that it was not enough to vent her anger, so she walked to He Yuzhu and pinched the flesh on his waist with her hands.

He Yuzhu quickly begged for mercy: "Okay, wife, I know I was wrong, and I will never dare to scare you again."

"Now that I know I was wrong, I forgive you. Let's see if you dare to scare me again in the future." Seeing He Yuzhu's attitude of admitting his mistake, Lou Xiao'e let go of his hand with satisfaction and said with a smug smile on her face.

"Big boy, second boy, and third boy, did you see that? If you dare to make mom angry, she will beat you. Dad was beaten so hard by mom that he begged for mercy. From now on, you three must be good and don't be naughty. Otherwise, mom will be angry and beat you three, and I won't be able to stop you." He Yuzhu took the opportunity to teach the three little ones by example.

The three little guys nodded quickly to show that they understood.
