Yin Mingyue was stumped by the question.

She didn’t know how to answer this question. Was it that she or her husband didn’t want a second child?

neither.

“Lu Xin’er is still young. She just gave birth to a child and is about to prepare for a second child. This will cause great harm to a woman’s body. If she gets pregnant again soon, her parents will definitely give more care to the younger one, and the older one will inevitably be neglected.”

“This is unfair to Lu Xiner.”

“So let’s have the baby two years later, when Lu Xin’er is older, can walk, jump, and play by herself without her mother. Then we can consider having a second child. What do you think, honey?”

These are the exact words her husband told her.

She still remembers it.

The reason was that after the first Pengcheng trip, my mother had a premonition that my husband’s career was getting bigger and bigger, and there might be more troubles around him, and there would be beautiful women throwing themselves at him, so she secretly said some heartfelt words to me, and it was these words that made me take the initiative in front of my husband for the first time, after taking a shower and at night.

“My daughter, listen to me. It’s hard for anyone to resist this kind of temptation, especially now that there are more and more beautiful women like this out there.

If you don’t believe me, look at your father. He used to be so honest, a rustic farmer. Now he’s just lucky. He made some money in the past two years, and he’s so proud of himself. He hasn’t mentioned the fact that our Yin family needs a son for many years, but he’s brought it up again in recent years. Every time he comes back from social events and gets drunk, he takes it out on me. I’ve been through this before, and I really don’t want to see you follow my path.”

Yin Mingyue knew very well that her mother only mentioned the point briefly and did not explain everything.

Because when she was a child, she saw with her own eyes that her mother was looked down upon by many people around her. In the countryside, if you cannot give birth to a son, you have to endure being discriminated against by people around you. And this discrimination comes not only from outsiders, but also from your own family members.

Yin Mingyue still has some vague memories of her childhood. At that time, her grandparents were still alive. Her mother had not been able to get pregnant since she gave birth to her and her sister. Her grandparents were very angry about this. Her grandfather lost his temper and often scolded her father for this. Her grandmother also often cursed her mother behind her back, saying that she was an unlucky star and would only give birth to money-losing children. If she had known this, she would have never allowed her mother to enter their Yin family. Sometimes she even saw her mother wiping away tears behind her back.

She still remembers these things.

My mother didn’t bring up these things again. Maybe she thought that after marrying Brother Lu Yang, she didn’t have the same pressure from her father-in-law and mother-in-law to give birth to her child as she did…

Aunt Ye is a good person. She is not as uneducated as her grandparents, nor as feudal as them. Although she is also Brother Lu Yang’s mother, Aunt Ye has always felt guilty about her feelings for Brother Lu Yang. She can also see that Aunt Ye is always cautious when facing Brother Lu Yang.

This cautiousness also made it impossible for her to interfere in her married life with Brother Lu Yang.

But even so, she still listened to her mother’s words and became particularly proactive that night.

She is not like that now.

Every time she had sex, she would be very shy and ask Brother Lu Yang to turn off the lights. She also had to change clothes behind Brother Lu Yang’s back, and this was even more so when taking a bath.

She is very thin-skinned.

Brother Lu Yang knew it, but this time she suddenly became proactive and positive, which immediately surprised Brother Lu Yang.

Very interesting at the same time.

That night, they stayed up very late, and spent the rest of the time talking all night.

Just like what I said just now: if a woman gives birth seamlessly and the interval is too short, it will cause great harm to her body. Also, Lu Xiner is still young, and having a younger brother or sister too early will share the love of his parents for her, which is the greatest injustice to her.

All of the above words were said by Brother Lu Yang after that night.

Brother Lu Yang also said, “My dear sister, why don’t you imagine that when our Xin’er just learned to walk, or when she couldn’t even stand steadily, she fell down and cried loudly, and then she pulled your trouser legs and said in a baby voice with an unclear voice: Mommy, hold me, mommy, hold me…

what about you?
You have a big belly at this time.

You feel heartbroken and want to hug her, but you don’t dare because you can’t bend down, and you are afraid of hurting the baby in your belly.

What do you do at this time? “

Brother Lu Yang said these words with great expression that night, especially the two sentences that imitated Lu Xiner’s voice: “Mommy, hold me, Mommy, hold me.”

It hit her heart directly, amused her, and made her feel that what Brother Lu Yang said actually made sense.

You should listen to your mother, but what about your husband?
Listen too.

From that time on, she temporarily gave up the idea of ​​giving birth to another son for Brother Lu Yang, and began to patiently raise Lu Xiner, giving all her love to this lovely daughter.

Time quietly came to 1992. Lu Xiner was 2 and a half years old that year. It was also the Spring Festival of that year. The mistress of her father suddenly came to the house. She brought her son who was only a few months old to confront her mother and force her mother to divorce her father. All the good things suddenly took a turn for the worse.

The father and mother who loved each other in my eyes divorced during the Spring Festival of 92.

My mother followed me and left that sad place, the mountain village where she had lived for decades, and moved into the villa in the city that my brother Lu Yang bought for her small family.

From then on, Lu Xiner had a grandmother to take care of her, but her mother became more haggard and older day by day. Her mother was not happy. The failure of this marriage was like a thorn in her throat, and she could never forget it. Her hatred for her father and the young woman who destroyed her family grew stronger day by day.

Finally, an opportunity came.

My father suddenly had a cerebral infarction, and that woman was found to be one of the culprits. It turned out that the son she and my father had was also born to her and someone else. My father had been kept in the dark, and had always been the scapegoat, raising someone else’s son.

My father couldn’t accept the truth, so after finally surviving a stroke, he became what he is now. He is only in his 50s, but he has started to suffer from Alzheimer’s disease and Alzheimer’s disease. Now my mother has finally let go of the resentment that has been stuck in her throat. The woman and her mistress were sentenced together, and they deserved it. In my mother’s eyes, my father also deserved it. She will not sympathize with my father for what he has ended up like this, nor will she visit him. At most, she will not stop the two sisters from taking care of this relative who suffers from Alzheimer’s disease and Alzheimer’s disease.

From then on, the mother paid more attention to the two sisters.

Because she lived with her and helped her take care of Lu Xiner, whenever she had time, her mother would come to her room and tell her some words of experience, and advised her earnestly: “Hurry up, hurry up, while you are still young, hurry up and have another child, and make sure to have a male child. Your mother ended up like this, isn’t it enough for you to learn a lesson? Girl, you are still not awake at this time, when do you want to wake up? Will you be unable to give birth in the future?”

In this way, her mother’s words became more and more serious day by day, and she finally mustered up the courage again. One night, she confessed to Brother Lu Yang: “Husband, I…I…Can you…give me another child?”

That night, her stuttering, which had not occurred for a long time, recurred again.

She said the word “I” many times in a row, and the last words “Can you give me a child?” were stuck in her throat because Brother Lu Yang had sealed her mouth with his.

They kissed for a long time, and her lips were almost swollen.

Brother Lu Yang was very bad that night, so bad that he asked her to do something that she had refused to do before. Oh my God, how could he do that? Isn’t it dirty? But Brother Lu Yang said that other couples would do it, and it could increase the relationship between the couple, zero distance, no, negative distance. The more they understand each other, the deeper they are, the more thoroughly they are liberated, and the deeper their feelings will be. She believed it because Brother Lu Yang would never lie to her.

It was also on that night that Brother Lu Yang finally agreed to have a second child.

She is so happy!

She thought she would get pregnant soon, and from that night on, she listened to her mother and would use a pillow to prop up a certain part of her body after every operation.

Unfortunately, to this day, her stomach has not moved.

I don’t know if you have noticed that in daily life, those who don’t want to get pregnant often get pregnant by accident.

Some cannot be removed by taking medicine, and even a small umbrella can leak air. Some married women who have had an IUD inserted will give birth to their children with an IUD on their heads 10 months later.

As for those who want to have a baby and are actively preparing for pregnancy, the more anxious you are, the more likely your stomach will be quiet. One or two times is definitely not enough, and five or ten times is not new. If time is dragged out a little longer, it is not impossible to have sex for two or three years. And if these opportunities are given to couples or lovers who don’t want children, wouldn’t they be so happy?
I don’t even know how much a small umbrella can save!

Yin Mingyue is in this situation now. She is obviously very anxious to have a child, and has been actively preparing for pregnancy since that day. Her husband is also accommodating to her and has never laughed at her even when she propped herself up with a pillow afterwards. But she just can’t get pregnant. She can only be more patient. Apart from this, what else can she do?

“Sister Xiaoxiao, this should be unintentional, right?”

“Well, it’s not intentional. She pulled me out to be a raft. She must have been stimulated by the fact that Sister Wei Shu gave birth to a son tonight. I might as well persuade her again.”

Think of this.

The kind-hearted Yin Mingyue said to Xiaoxiao who was sitting next to her: “Sister Xiaoxiao, whether a boy or a girl is born is probably determined by fate. The two of us are like the first couple who were not destined to have a son, but we don’t need to panic, right?
Actually, daughters are fine. Look at Lu Xiner, she is very well behaved and rarely acts naughty. If we had a boy, and he became naughty, wouldn’t we as mothers be so angry to death when we have to control him?

Of course, after giving birth to a daughter, we can still find a suitable time to have a son, so that we can make it a good family.

Chinese people believe that good things come in pairs, but my husband said so. “

Yin Mingyue’s words did not directly answer Xiaoxiao’s sharp question just now, but she also pointed out at the end that her husband, Brother Lu Yang, supported her to have another child. The fact that she is not pregnant yet has nothing to do with her husband, and it is not that there is a problem in their relationship, nor does it have anything to do with their health. It just needs a suitable time.

Xiaoxiao didn’t understand, but she continued to pester him. “It’s easy to say, but what if you get pregnant with a girl next time? I don’t want to have an abortion. We women have a hard life, and we have to endure this pain. I heard that abortion is harmful to the body. Sister Mingming, what about you? If you get pregnant with a girl next time, what will you do?”

There are some things that can be done but not said. Even if you have this idea in your mind, it is best not to make it public, because morally, it is actually condemned by the world.

What if I get pregnant with a girl again next time?
Yin Mingyue had never thought about this problem, nor did she want to think about it deeply. If she had to put herself in his shoes, she thought, she would definitely listen to her husband and do whatever Brother Lu Yang said. Suppose Brother Lu Yang asked her to abort, she would definitely be sad. She believed that she would cry very sadly, but she would definitely not let Brother Lu Yang see her shed a single tear for this matter.

So?

So does she have to answer Sister Xiaoxiao’s question just now?

She wouldn’t do that. This question itself is immoral. Answering it would only make her morally flawed. And as for Brother Lu Yang, it’s something that hasn’t happened yet, so why should she rush to make a decision?
and also……

Even if I have made a decision, why should I tell you?
She was a little unhappy. “Sister Xiaoxiao, let’s talk about something else. This issue is not interesting at all.”

Yin Mingyue’s biggest shortcoming is that she is too kind. Even when she is angry, the most she can do is like this.

Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment, her face suddenly turned red, she felt a little embarrassed, and opened her mouth to speak: “…”

Xu Siqi and Qian Youyou, who were standing next to them, stopped chatting and looked at each other.

Xu Siqi was the first to answer: “How about we make an appointment to go shopping together tomorrow?”

Qian Youyou nodded: “I can, I can spare some time tomorrow.”

Yin Mingyue heaved a sigh of relief when she saw the two of them gave up chatting about business matters that she didn’t understand, and joined in, chatting about where to go shopping tomorrow, what fun and delicious food there were, and even jokingly said that Qian Youyou, the landlady, must host tomorrow…

Soon, the three of them started fighting, and Xiaoxiao, who was sitting opposite them, wanted to interrupt but couldn’t.

In fact, the men at the table also noticed the commotion at the women’s table.

After the party, before leaving, Lu Yang patted Da Jun on the shoulder and said, “Go back and persuade your sister-in-law not to think too much.”
