When Lin's father heard this, he thought it made sense. It was the Chinese New Year now, so it would be useless if he didn't give her more money. After all, he had to give out red envelopes.
So, he took out a card from his wallet and gave it to Mother Lin, "Here, there are two hundred thousand in it, that's about it."
Mother Lin quickly caught it and said, "Then I want to buy a new set of clothes this afternoon."
"Have you taken Hibiscus to the hospital for a check-up?"
"I was going to take her to the hospital to find out the gender of the baby and prepare some clothes. You just happened to be back. Let's go together. I have to buy clothes after I get back from the hospital."
"OK."
After lunch, the four of us went to the hospital together.
The doctor did not directly tell the gender of the child, but only enlarged it for Lin Jiaoyang and Lin's mother and father to see.
At first glance, Mother Lin's face changed.
"girl?"
The doctor didn't answer. He just looked at the child's health status and finally wrote down the specific status, saying, "The child is very healthy and developing well in all aspects. The expected date of delivery is more than one month."
Lin Jiaoyang helped Mu Jin up. Mu Jin already knew in her heart that the baby in her belly was a girl, but she didn't feel any pressure now. She couldn't stop what was coming.
When they returned, Mother Lin did not join them, but said she was going to buy clothes.
Father Lin asked her to prepare the child's clothes, mattress, socks and diapers.
She promised well, but returned home empty-handed.
He collapsed on the sofa as tired as a puddle of mud.
When Lin's father saw this, he asked her, "Didn't I ask you to buy some clothes for the child in advance? Why did you come back empty-handed?"
"I didn't even buy one for myself, so I bought it for her?" She squinted her eyes, "I thought it was a grandson, but it turned out to be a girl's movie."
Mu Jin said, "Didn't Mom say that both sons and daughters are children of the Lin family? Men and women are the same."
"Yes, I just said it so casually, do you take it seriously? Men and women are the same? What nonsense are you talking about? Why is the head of state not a woman, and why is the heir of the Gu family not Gu Zhenzhen? Since ancient times, advocating that men and women are the same is just a one-sided statement.
Yes, if you give birth to a daughter, it will naturally be the child of the Lin family, but we, Jiaoyang, must have a son."
"What era are we in now? Sons are still valued over daughters. The Ye family is richer and more powerful than ours, right? Ye Qi's mother took the initiative and asked Ma Chunchun to just have one more daughter."
Mother Lin sat up straight and looked at her, "What do you mean? If you are not willing to give birth to children for our Jiaoyang, there are many women who are willing to give birth! Why, you think other people's mother-in-laws are good, but unfortunately, you are not destined to be one.
Someone else’s daughter-in-law!”
"That's enough!" Lin Jiaoyang stood up and looked at his mother, "Mujin is not capable of becoming Ye's mother's daughter-in-law. That's because she married me. She is not destined to have a good mother-in-law like Ma Chunchun. This
Can you blame her? What’s wrong with having a boy or a girl? I still like daughters, and I only want one daughter like this. I will pass on the future business of our Lin family to her!"
Mother Lin stood up and pointed at him with trembling fingers, "You bastard, what did you just say!"
"Didn't you hear clearly what I said?"
"Your father and I are not dead yet. You alone have the final say in the company. If you let a daughter inherit the company in the future, you will make others laugh!"
Lin Jiaoyang looked at her coldly, "You still know how to save face? Have you considered your own face when you do these morally corrupt things?"
Mother Lin was suddenly choked and could no longer speak.
"Okay, after all, I forgot about my mother when I had a daughter-in-law. No matter what, my mother is not as good as your wife."
"Don't change the subject."
Mother Lin snorted coldly, "I'm going to bed, too lazy to talk."
Lin's father looked slightly embarrassed and looked at Mu Jin, "Your mother's temper is like a sharp tongue and a soft heart. Just pretend that her words don't exist. Don't forget to take it from your heart."
Hibiscus nodded, but she felt really uncomfortable.
Going upstairs, he remained silent the entire time.
Seeing her depressed mood, Lin Jiaoyang said, "Both our daughters and sons are our children. I have said this several times. Have you forgotten it?"
"I know, but I still feel unhappy."
"Don't think so much. Then tomorrow you can go to Xiao Nuan's house and see how many months pregnant she is. Go out more and feel better."
Hibiscus nodded, "Okay."
***
The next day, before Mu Jin went to Xiao Nuan's house, An Xiao Nuan came and asked the captain of the man in black to carry a lot of things, all the necessities for the baby.
Seeing this scene, Mu Jin felt warm in her heart, "Sister Xiao Nuan, how do you know I'm pregnant with a girl?"
"Jiaoyang called me this morning, hello girl, I wish my baby was a girl, Hibiscus, I have prepared all these for you. When the time comes, you ask Jiaoyang to go to the hospital with you in advance with the delivery package.
To prevent a sudden birth, it will be too late."
Hibiscus sweetly responded, "Okay, thank you, Miss Nuan, come in and sit."
An Xiaonuan followed her into the living room. She was nearly four months old and had a round belly. She was wearing a pink down jacket and a hat. She breathed in the heat and stamped her feet, "It's so cold. Do you want more hibiscus?"
Wear something."
"How much do you wear?"
"Hibiscus, are you in a bad mood? If you have anything to say to me, we are all women, and women's problems are generally common."
Mu Jin nodded, "I feel a little bit bad, mainly because my mother-in-law is a bit patriarchal, and I feel a little stressed. I'm afraid that if this baby is born, she will still be a daughter."
"Ladies from wealthy families are like this. They prefer sons over daughters. But don't worry. If you really want to have a son, after you give birth to this little baby, I will ask the Chinese medicine doctor Gurney to adjust the body's acid and alkalinity. You and
If the sun cooperates with your diet, you have a high chance of giving birth to a son, so now you mainly need to relax yourself and don't be anxious. If an adult is in a bad mood, the baby will feel it in the belly."
Hibiscus's eyes lit up, "Sister Xiao Nuan, can it really be cured?"
"Of course, don't you believe me? So, now you have to give birth to this baby well, don't be unhappy, your attention should be on the baby and Jiaoyang, as long as Jiaoyang protects you, everything will not be a problem
."
After listening to An Xiaonuan's words, Mu Jin felt much better.
She finally smiled and said, "Okay, Sister Xiaonuan, I listen to you."
"That's right, Hibiscus, let's go for a walk. A walk will make you feel much better. Come on, let's go outside and breathe some fresh air."
Hibiscus stood up and the two pregnant women left the Lin house together.
As soon as they walked out of the gate, they saw Mother Lin getting out of the car, holding a clothes bag in her hand, walking home happily. When she saw the two of them, Mother Lin stopped immediately.
