It’s not that Zhang hadn’t consulted a doctor. She had seen a doctor without telling Li Mingxia and Li Zhengde, but they all said that the chances of them having another child were slim. After so many disappointments, Zhang didn’t care anymore. It was just that she didn’t have a child. So what?

But when I think about it, I still feel regretful, thinking about my unborn child who has not yet come into this world and has not even been able to see the sunlight.

Every time she thought of this, Zhang couldn't control her tears, but who could she tell these words to? She couldn't bear to let Li Sanlang and the children be sad with her, so she could only cry secretly.

Now that she heard the news that she was pregnant, Zhang was ecstatic but also couldn't believe it.

She couldn't believe that she was really pregnant and was afraid it was fake.

"Mingxia, Mingxia, my girl, is it true? Mother really has a child?" Zhang subconsciously looked for the person she trusted the most, and held Li Mingxia's hand tighter and tighter, as if this would make it feel more real.

The doctor has already said that it is guaranteed to be true and there will be no mistakes. Li Mingxia also felt Zhang's pulse himself and confirmed that she was pregnant, so this matter is 90% certain and there will be no problems.

"Mom, don't worry, you are really pregnant, it's not fake." Li Mingxia gently held Zhang's hand with his other hand and said softly.

She knew that Zhang was unable to accept such joy at this moment.

Li Sanlang was so happy that he was stunned. When he came to his senses, he grabbed the doctor's arm and asked again and again.

Zhang and Li Sanlang's reactions were so dramatic that the doctor looked a little surprised.

This couple has children, both a daughter and a son. Why are they so happy about having a baby?

But soon the doctor also became happy because Li Mingxia had someone take two large strings of copper coins, which was two taels of silver.

"Thank you for making this trip, doctor. I'll use this money to treat you to a drink." Li Mingxia said with a smile.

This doctor was invited from the neighboring village. Although he didn't know much about Li Mingxia's family, he had heard a lot about them. He knew that the family was now wealthy. Now seeing the reward money, he felt that he had made the right decision on this trip.

"So much? Thank you, miss, thank you, madam." The doctor's face was full of smiles. He happily took the money and couldn't help but give a few more instructions, "Madam, there is no problem with this pregnancy. It looks very safe. You don't need to take medicine. Walk around more often and don't stay in bed all the time. In addition, I think your body is a little deficient. You still need to supplement it. Otherwise, the fetus will not be in your stomach and it will be difficult to take care of it after it is born."

After hearing this, Zhang nodded repeatedly and memorized every word in her heart, fearing that she would miss anything.

"But you can't overdo it, otherwise the baby will be too big and you might suffer during delivery. Just give it a moderate amount."

It's different after receiving the money. He didn't intend to say so much just now.

Li Mingxia found what the doctor said to be very pertinent and useful. He thought that his two taels of silver were not wasted. Seeing Zhang's happy and satisfied expression when she heard that the baby in her belly was fine, Li Mingxia also became happy.

So when sending the doctor away, Li Mingxia packed a big bag of cakes. They were not made by him, but were the best cakes he bought from the town. Such a big portion cost more than one or two taels of silver.

After receiving so many benefits, the doctor felt that his luck today couldn't be better! He thanked the doctor repeatedly and left happily.

When Li Mingxia returned home, the excitement on Zhang and Li Sanlang's faces had not yet subsided, and both of them seemed to not know what to say.

"No wonder you suddenly want to eat something sour. It turns out you are pregnant." Li Sanlang murmured as he looked at Zhang's stomach.

Zhang touched her belly and couldn't describe the feeling.

"They say sour boys and spicy girls are the most popular. This time I should have another son." Li Sanlang stared at Zhang's belly, the joy in his heart could not be expressed in words.

When Zhang heard this, she felt a little unhappy.

"When I was pregnant with our daughter Mingxia, I also enjoyed eating sour food. Didn't the baby I gave birth to be a girl?"

Li Sanlang thought about it and realized that this was indeed the case. Zhang couldn't get enough vinegar at that time. She even wanted to add vinegar to her corn porridge when she ate. The whole family thought that this baby must be a boy, but they didn't expect it to be Li Mingxia.

Because of this incident, Old Lady Zheng disliked Zhang for a long time, saying that she deliberately ate so much sour food so that people would think the baby in her belly was a son, and she wanted others to look up to her and so on.

At that time, Mrs. Zheng's words almost made Zhang sick. How could Zhang have such a mind? She was really thinking about being jealous, and she was not pretending at all.

But how could Old Lady Zheng believe this? She thought Zhang was just being stubborn. If Zhang was not in confinement and Li Sanlang was protecting her, who knows what she would do to her.

"Do you prefer a son and not a daughter?" Zhang looked at Li Sanlang, feeling a little unhappy.

He keeps saying how much he likes girls, but look at how he reacts when he hears that he likes sour food!

Li Sanlang was stunned, and quickly waved his hands, saying, "Mother, you are really wronging me. My daughter and son are the same to me. As long as it is our child, whether it is a boy or a girl, I cherish it equally. Mother, I am not the kind of person who only cherishes boys and treats daughters as grass. We have been married for so many years, you should know me!"

Zhang nodded. She believed what Li Sanlang said. Just as Li Sanlang said, after so many years of marriage, she knew in her heart that Li Sanlang was not that kind of person. She said that just now because there was a surge of anger in her heart. She would not be happy unless she lost her temper and made trouble.

"Mother, there is no distinction between good children, boys and girls. Let's just talk about our daughter. Who is worse than her? Is that right?"

When talking about Li Mingxia, Zhang's brows softened, her mood improved, and she was no longer angry.

"Your words really hit the nail on the head. I don't care whether the baby in my belly is a boy or a girl, as long as the personality is like our Mingxia's. I don't ask for the child to be as capable as our daughter, as long as he is good at doing things and being a good person."
