Gu Qingyao laughed. “I was hoping for a girl! How nice to have a little girl!
“We have so many boys in the family. We’re not short of heirs. Besides, even if it’s a girl, if we raise her properly, she can take over the family too.”
She and Mo Beihan’s child would be outstanding, be it a boy or a girl.
With the huge business inherited from their parents, they would have a good life, regardless of gender.
Ji Mingyue sighed. “Speaking of that, I also think it’s a pity! You only had one baby, but I had two! And neither of them is a daughter. Sigh… your Gu family genes are just too powerful!”
The Gu family had many boys. Oldest Cousin and Second Cousin, who were already married, only had boys. Gu Qingyao laughed and said, “Surely you can’t blame the Gu family entirely! Your Ji family genes are not weak either!”
The Ji family also had more boys than girls.
Ji Mingyue said gloomily, “I will never experience what it’s like to have a daughter. Wu Wu Wu, how sad!”
Gu Qingyao was amused. “Don’t worry! My Mu Mu even says he’ll marry a good girl to take care of me!”
Ji Mingyue said, “But I’ll have to wait for these little fellows to grow up and bring one back! Sigh… Eldest Cousin-in-law is luckier. She has a sweet little girl. I’m so jealous.”
Once women have children, they mostly talk about their children. Ji Mingyue was bored during her confinement, so Gu Qingyao often came over to keep her company.
The capital’s women turned their envy on Ji Mingyue ever since she returned home to do her confinement.
The Gu men all doted on their wives, and Gu Jinhang was no exception. He was an excellent husband. Ji Mingyue had never realized how thoughtful and considerate a man could be when one doted on a woman.
She thought that her sisters-in-law were already very fortunate because her older brothers all loved them very much. But now that she was married and had a child, she realized that her life was much better than her sisters-in-law’s.
Every time her mother came to visit her, she could not stop beaming!
Time flew by with these little ones in the family. Oldest Cousin, Gu Chonghua, often brought his twins over, and the Gu house was filled with the pattering of little feet. Gu Chonghua and Wen Ruyu were delighted.
Meanwhile, Little Five, Gu Jinxuan, was far away and not so happy!
He had underestimated Zhou Ping’s stupidity.
He had stayed there for almost three months and personally witnessed Zhou Ping grow more haggard every day. At first, the villagers had been afraid that the Zhou family would take revenge, but after a while, they realized that no one was going to help the Zhou family, and they grew bolder.
In these times, most villagers were very honest, but there were still some very bad people!
Without any men in the family, they would certainly be bullied. At first, Gu Jinxuan arranged for some hooligans to make trouble for the Zhou family. Later on, he did not have to make any arrangements. Almost everyone disliked the Zhou family.
So they vented all their pent-up rage from being bullied in the past.
The two daughters-in-law did not dare to leave the house. Grandma Zhou was quarreling with the villagers almost every day.
She was an old woman. She was good at quarreling, but not at fighting. She could not beat so many opponents by herself.
Every time Grandma Zhou was bullied, she would come back and vent all her rage on Zhou Ping.
During this period in the Zhou House, Zhou Ping was beaten every day, went hungry, and had to do all the chores. She grew steadily more haggard.
That day, Zhou Ping was slumped against the wall in fatigue.. Gu Jinxuan walked over and asked her calmly, “Mother, have you thought it through?”
