Show off your son
Liu Xiaoai is not a patriarchal person, but in her heart, she also hopes that her younger brother can have both children and daughters.
Now the brother and daughter-in-law are only suspected of being pregnant, let alone discussing whether the child is male or female.
People who have had pregnancy experience don't need to be checked to know that this matter is inseparable.
From ancient times to the present, women have been pregnant based on feeling and experience, not to mention going to the hospital for examination.
One is an era when eating is a problem, and there is no extra money to go to the hospital to check whether you are pregnant, let alone do so many pregnancy tests.
The other thing is that at that time, medicine had not yet developed to the point where it is today, and even if there was money, it was not necessarily possible to detect anything.
The current pregnancy test takes more than half a day just from the first time I go to the hospital to confirm my pregnancy.
After confirming the pregnancy, if it is a normal pregnancy, if it is determined to keep the child, you must also get a pregnancy examination manual, and for each examination, the next examination time and examination items will be agreed by the way.
In the first few months, it is usually checked once every four weeks, and as the gestation months grow, the check-ups will become more and more frequent, becoming bi-weekly or even once a week.
Every time I check it, it's extremely cumbersome.
There are so many people in the hospital, no matter what tests are done, they are waiting in endless queues.
These tests are also for the sake of the health of the pregnant woman and the fetus, and are generally understood.
Liu Xiaoai thought that she might have a nephew, but she was very happy.
After getting off work, Liu Xiaoai showed a smile for the first time in a long time, and said to Chen Song: "My brother-in-law is pregnant. ”
Although I haven't gone to the hospital for a check-up, everyone knows that this matter can't be run.
Therefore, when Liu Xiaoai said to Chen Song, it was also in a very positive tone.
Chen Song was also quite happy and said, "Xiaohu should have another child." Just one girl is indeed too few. If it's a son, it's just a daughter, you have to have a child as a companion. ”
Although Xiaohu is one or two years younger than Liu Xiaoai, because he dropped out of school early, he got married early, and his daughter is a few years older than Liu Xiaoai's son.
The younger brother surpasses the elder sister in terms of giving birth.
Liu Xiaoai didn't know that Chen Song would have such an idea.
Suddenly, she asked, "If I had given birth to Xiaobao and was born a girl, would you be in a hurry to let me have another one?" ”
In the past, from pregnancy to childbirth, Chen Songke always said that men and women don't care about health. But listening to him today, it doesn't seem like that's the case.
Chen Song looked at Xiaobao and said to Liu Xiaoai: "I'll tell you the truth, wife, I was afraid that others would laugh at me if I couldn't give birth to a son, so I said that men and women don't matter." Of course, I may love Xiaobao more than I give birth to a daughter, but the moment I knew that Xiaobao was a son, my heart was immediately steady. I'm not patriarchal, but I still want to have a son, steadfast. ”
Liu Xiaoai believes that this is what he is really saying.
Chen Song is a more traditional rural man in the north, and having a son is also something he has been looking forward to.
Of course, even if Liu Xiaoai gave birth to a daughter, he would have the same pain, and even more pampered than Xiaobao, but with a son, he would have a straight waist when talking to others.
He envied other classmates for having cars, houses and savings, but he also felt that those people were still inferior to themselves without sons.
Later, after the second child gave birth to a son, Chen Song had nothing to show off.
