When Yang and Huo Erhuai told Huo Xi that they did not want the unborn child, Huo Xi was shocked.
I didn't come back to my senses for a long time.
"Why, mother?"
Yang's eyes were red and she said nothing, with a look of hidden pain on her face.
Huo Xi looked at Huo Erhuai again.
Huo Erhuai glanced at his wife beside him and said with difficulty: "Your mother and I are both in our thirties, we are not young..." He couldn't say any more.
"What's wrong with thirty? Those old oysters can give birth to pearls at the age of forty or fifty. Where are you just now?" Huo Xi was very confused.
"I, I have discussed it with your mother, no more. You and Nian'er are enough. You two are sensible, in the future..."
Huo Erhuai glanced at Huo Xi.
Huo Xi stepped forward and hugged them: "Father, mother, you are the biological parents of me and Nian'er. In the future, we will definitely support you until we grow old, take care of you, and be filial to you."
"Well, parents know that you are sensible." Huo Erhuai was troubled, he knew that the child he raised was sensible.
Yang also reached out and hugged her.
"But mother, even if there are Nian'er, me, and uncle, there is no conflict with you having children. Isn't it bad to have more younger brothers and sisters?"
When Yang heard this, she couldn't help but shed tears.
Huo Erhuai looked distressed when he saw her crying, and patted her. It was not an easy decision for the two of them.
"Your mother is afraid that the child will not be able to survive. Neither your mother nor I want to do it again. Our bodies have been soaked in water all year round, and there is a lot of coldness in our bodies. Even if we get pregnant and give birth, the child may not be able to survive."
If you develop it, you will be sick and tired, and it will drag you down."
Huo Erhuai couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart when he thought of the children.
Huo Xi disagreed: "Dad, Mom, our family's life is better now. You and Mom have been raising you for these years, and your health is different from the past. Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to get pregnant. Since you have it, why don't you want it?"
I disagree."
"And our family has money now. Even if our brothers and sisters are not healthy, we can still take care of them. You can't even deny them the right to be born. I'm already looking at Zhuangzi. I'll buy it in a few days.
You and your mother will live in Zhuangzi. If you like, you can go to the fields. If you like, you can fish. Otherwise, you can just meet the villagers under the shade of the trees to chat."
Yang still cried. After hearing this, Huo Erhuai went to persuade Yang.
"How about we listen to Xi'er and wait until he is born. If we really can't support him, we will admit it. We won't think about it again in the future."
Doesn't Huo Erhuai want a biological child? No, he does.
But if it wasn't in his destiny, he would admit it.
The Huo family has brothers and several nephews, so there is no shortage of his lineage to burn incense. The Yang family also has a blessed son, and the Yang family will not be short of incense.
He and Chunying will also have Nian'er and Xi'er burning paper for them in the future.
If there are no children, there will be no children.
Chunying was afraid that it would happen again, and so was he. But now Huo Xi persuaded him again.
They have to make some efforts. If it really doesn't work, then they are destined to have no children. That's it. Don't force it anymore.
Huo Xi tried her best to persuade her, and the couple finally decided to give birth to the child.
"Mom, then don't go on the boat with your father these days. Just raise your baby in Qionghua Lane. When I buy the Zhuangzi, you will live in the Zhuangzi."
Yang nodded in agreement.
After persuading the two of them, when Yang Fu came back from the evening party, Huo Xi went to Yang Fu to explain the matter again.
Yang Fu was silent for a long time, then wiped it hard on his face.
Sniffling: "My sister is afraid that she will not be able to feed the child after giving birth. She and my brother-in-law are both afraid. In fact, I am also afraid. When my sister and brother-in-law buried their first child, I didn't know anything, and I didn't know anything.
Asked why he was buried, was it because he was afraid of being cold..."
Yang Fu wiped a handful on his face: "When I was poor, I was often too cold to sleep on the boat. My sister would fry a pot of river sand, put it in a bag sewn with linen, and let me hold it to keep warm, and put it on the boat at night.
Covering your feet under the quilt..."
Huo Xi felt as if someone had pinched her heart hard and it hurt.
"When my mother gives birth to a younger brother and sister, I will love him well and give him the best."
Yang Fu nodded: "Well, our life is better now. It's different from the past when we used river sand to keep warm. Now we have cloth to make clothes, thick quilts to cover, and charcoal fires that don't stink. We can definitely feed this child.
of."
"Well, let's have a younger brother. Both parents are looking forward to it."
Huo Xi held her palms in her hands and bowed to the moonlight. Her parents had suffered for so many years. They are good people. Please ask the mother-in-law to give them a boy.
Huo Nian scratched the door frame, and now he was completely awake. He blinked again and again, pouted, and tiptoed back to the room.
He got into bed, pulled the quilt over his head, and even forgot about him going out to pee.
The next day, Huo Xi went to wake him up and go to school. Seeing that he was still sleeping, he lifted his quilt and said, "Huo Nian, the sun is shining on your butt. Why don't you get up? It's time to be late!"
Huo Nian opened his eyes and pouted again when he saw that it was her sister, not her mother.
"Get up quickly!"
Huo Nian pouted and turned over, squinting his eyes again. Why didn't his mother come to call Nian'er?
As soon as Huo Nian turned over, Huo Xi saw a suspicious water stain on the bed.
Frowning, he leaned over and took a look, shocked: "Nian'er, did you wet the bed yesterday?"
What's strange is that her younger brother has been able to cry by himself since he can speak. In the past, when the family conditions were not good, Huo Xi would often talk to him, telling him to call someone to pee, and to call someone at night.
Once the bed is wet, there will be no mattress or quilt to use.
He always remembered it.
I haven't wet the bed much in recent years. It's strange. I'm over five years old and I'm in a private school, but I wet the bed!
Huo Nian was so frightened that he turned over, turned his head, looked around, and touched his pants. His mouth immediately pouted, and he burst into tears.
Yang, who was busy making breakfast in the kitchen, and Yang Fu in the other room were so frightened that they ran over.
After understanding the situation, I couldn't laugh or cry.
Yang wanted to hug him, but he wouldn't let him go. He didn't want Huo Xi to get close, so he stretched out his hand for Yang Fu to hug him.
Yang Fu suppressed his laughter and took him to wash up. Yang shook his head and laughed, then made his bed: "Xi'er, Nian'er has grown up and knows how to save face. Don't talk about him."
Huo Xi nodded: "Mom, I understand."
After Huo Nian had finished dressing up, he didn't want Yang and Huo Xi to see him off, nor did he want to walk properly, so he was carried by Yang Fu all the way to the school.
Neither Yang nor Huo Xi cared about it. Yang thought he had wet the bed in the morning and was embarrassed. Huo Xi thought she had exposed his bedwetting and made him lose face, so he wanted to ignore her sister.
Neither of them cared.
When Yang Fujian sent him to the door of the school, he didn't even say hello to Yang Fu. He just went in with his head lowered and didn't care.
I just thought that the child was still having a tantrum because of what happened in the morning, so I told him that I would pick him up in the afternoon and went to the shop.
Huo Nian couldn't listen to the whole day's class today and only remembered what he heard last night.
