As a soul for future generations, Song Qiu didn't know how to explain to them issues such as the genetic hazards of incest marriage.
These cousins are still very close to each other, so the problem is even bigger, okay?
They couldn't understand the various modern terms for genetic mutations.
Just use a deformity to explain it in a nutshell, and they can roughly understand it.
"Cousin and cousin cannot get married, otherwise the babies they will give birth to will be deformed."
Aling didn't believe it, "Deformed? The young master of the Cheng family is just like us, with one pair of hands, one pair of feet, two eyes, one nose, one mouth, two ears, and he is quite handsome. What's the deformity?"
Lihua didn't believe it either, "I heard that the young master of the Cheng family passed the county examination in February and became a boy student. He will also take the government examination in April. There will definitely be no problem in taking the scholar examination. This guy's brain is so smart, why is it deformed?
"
Song Qiu:......
"I've said it, it's possible! We can't gamble even if there are tens of millions of chances. What if it happens to us? Wouldn't this harm the children for a lifetime? So we know it's possible, then
You must never do this!”
Lihua was silent and blinked, "Okay, Ah Qiu, you are right, I will listen to you! Who told you to look good!"
Song Qiu breathed a sigh of relief and was about to speak.
Lihua turned her head and looked at Aling, and said seriously: "Then Aling, you also have two sons and two daughters. We are all the same. The son will marry my daughter, and the daughter will marry my son!"
"Why do I have to have two sons and two daughters? I don't want to have so many, I'm not a pig!" Aling puffed out his cheeks.
"No, Lihua, why do you have to keep an eye on me?"
Lihua expressed her position first, "I'm not a pig either! People say more children mean more blessings!"
Then he smiled slowly and said, "I'm relieved that you will be my daughter and mother-in-law!"
"You can rest assured that you will give your daughter to my family. I will treat her as my own daughter and I will never tease her!"
Aling was stunned, and Song Qiu was also stunned.
It turns out that Lihua is keen on marrying her children and has a family, and she has such thoughts.
Parents love their children for far-reaching reasons.
Which mother in the world who loves her daughter is not worried that her daughter will not be happy if she marries another family?
Aling took a breath and reached out to pat Lihua on the shoulder, "Lihua, don't worry, I won't have too many children, and I will try to have two sons!"
Song Qiu joked happily, "Two idiots, they really think they can have whatever they want!"
This is true.
Aling sighed leisurely, "There are many families who want to have a son, but they just give birth to one daughter after another. For this reason, some families who cannot afford to raise them will drown their newly born baby girls alive.
!”
"My grandma told me this. She has been a midwife for more than 20 years and has seen too much. The first lesson she taught me is that when I deliver babies in the future, I must not do anything illegal.
Regarding matters of conscience, I heard that some families who are unable to do anything themselves, or who simply don’t want to see their baby girls and don’t even want to touch them, will ask the midwife to kill them directly!”
These days, there are too many people who favor boys over girls.
Some women, even though they themselves are women, cannot tolerate their own daughter-in-law or their newly born granddaughter!
Song Qiu sighed. This is a deeply ingrained concept. Even in later generations, there will be many such things.
Maybe some women were not like this when they were young, but after they became mother-in-law, they became like their mother-in-law.
This topic is too heavy for the three girls who are not yet wives and mothers.
After a moment, Lihua said, "Anyway, I won't dislike having daughters all the time. If the Shitou family thinks that I can't give birth to a son, then I...I will make peace with Shitou!"
Song Qiu stretched out his hand to hold her, "Don't worry, other people don't dare to say it, but the Shitou family will definitely not. At worst, we can just keep a daughter for marriage!"
"Of course, it would be better to have a son." Lihua added softly, and then sighed.
Then he quickly changed the subject.
"Aling, have you really decided to teach Grandma Yuan the art of midwifery?"
Aling nodded, "Yes, it's decided! Grandma said that this is a craft inherited from the Song family and cannot be lost. Sister Aqiu was afraid of seeing the blood in the delivery room, so she didn't learn it. I'm not afraid! When I learn it, in the future
Sister Aqiu and Lihua, you have a baby, and I will deliver it to you!"
Song Qiu and Lihua silently moved their heads back without leaving a trace.
"Ahem, Ah Ling, I got married earlier than you. Maybe you got married when I gave birth to the baby, or maybe I haven't gotten married yet. It's not good for you to deliver the baby!" Lihua said.
Song Qiu thought that he still couldn't dampen Al-Ling's enthusiasm, so he smiled and said: "If you, Al-Ling, leave school and grandma says that you can deliver babies alone, we will let you deliver babies, okay?"
Aling also knew how much she weighed, so she didn't dare to joke if she wasn't sure.
He nodded happily, "Okay! Don't worry, I will study hard! I will try to give birth to you one day! One child cannot do two children! Two children cannot do three children! ...Four children cannot..."
"Ah, stop it!" Lihua interrupted her hastily, with a bitter look on her face, "No more! Four at most!"
"Hahaha!" Aling laughed so hard that he rolled on the bed.
Song Qiu and Lihua also laughed.
After laughing, Song Qiu yawned, "Okay, it's already midnight. Let's go to bed. We'll talk about it when we get up tomorrow."
When best friends get together, it's always hard to tell what time it is. They get so excited talking that they accidentally stay up all night.
Song Qiu, who was used to going to bed early when he came here, found it rare to go to bed so late and yawned until tears came to his eyes.
"Okay, go to sleep."
Halfway through his sleep, Song Qiu came to his senses and said, "Aling, you have your own room!"
Aling hugged the pillow tightly, turned it over, and pressed it against the wall, "I'll come when Lihua comes to sleep!"
Song Qiu helped his forehead.
Fine.
She knew it.
Fortunately, the bed was specially purchased to be larger.
Three people sleep together, so they don’t have to be so crowded that they can’t even turn over.
The consequence of making a fuss too late is that you won't be able to wake up until dawn.
Lao Yuan came to see them twice, but seeing that they didn't get up, he smiled and shook his head and didn't care.
We had breakfast with the Yuan family and the Hu family, and sent everyone away, but there was no movement after that.
Old Yuan simply went to see Aunt Song to relax.
The two of them were only a few years apart in age, and Mrs. Yuan often went to deliver babies at various families. If they had anything to talk about, the two of them hit it off, and they could chat easily.
It is said that Grandma Song is three years younger, but she looks much younger.
Aunt Song had long known that Old Yuan's life was not easy for most of her life, and it was all caused by hard times. Now that things are getting better, she also remembered Song Qiu's purpose of specially inviting her here, and immediately prepared some preparations for Old Yuan.
I asked Mr. Lin to tell me about the medicated food for the body, and it was specially prepared for Mr. Yuan every day.
When Old Yuan saw it, he naturally said thank you profusely.
This is the granddaughter's wish. She also wants to eat well, take good care of herself, strive to be in better health, and live longer so that she can watch her granddaughters flock to her. If she is greedy, it would be even better if she can watch her granddaughters and grandsons walking around her knees.
She would rather be reincarnated in her next life and have more hardships, and she also hopes to live a few more years in this life and spend a little longer with her granddaughter.
