After the marriage was broken off, the husband's family regretted it

Yuntao was sitting in her yard looking at the blue sky and white clouds, feeling very comfortable.

I thought to myself that I have been here for such a long time, and I haven’t felt so comfortable for a long time.

At this time, the lady came over with a big belly: "Mom, why don't you stay here to bask in the sun? Why don't you go out to the fields and take a look at the crops? Since we used the fertilizer, our crops are the best in the village. Many people envy us. Second and third cows are now in great demand in the village."

Yun Tao smiled and said, "Are there many girls who want to marry into our family? That's also a blessing for the second and third cows."

Lady: "Mom, life is so good now, and the family has everything they need. We have plenty of money. Have you ever thought about the possibility that I am carrying a girl?"

The lady looked at Yun Tao carefully, wanting to see what Yun Tao was thinking. After all, there was no mother-in-law who didn't like boys, but girls were not valued, and few parents would like them.

Yun Tao looked at the lady and knew what she was thinking. She was afraid that if she gave birth to a daughter, she would not like her, and she was also afraid that her husband would not like the girl. But it was impossible to say for sure whether you would give birth to a son or a daughter. You could not ask for a son to be a son or a girl to be a girl. It was a beautiful thought, but life was not so perfect.

Yun Tao looked at the lady, "Having a son or a daughter is fate. As a mother, they all came out of your belly. I like them all. Don't worry, lady. I know what you want to say. I also told you openly that if it's a girl, I will like it too, and so will Daniu. Even if you only have one girl or one child in this life, I have no objection. As long as you two live well, you don't have to bear such a heavy psychological burden."

"Look at what your mother has said since you got married. Has she shown any preference for boys over girls in front of you? See if she has."

Lady: "Mom, if you can't give birth to a son, Daniu will not be able to hold his head up in the village. People in the village will laugh at him for not having an heir. I feel like I'm carrying a girl in my belly, not a son. I'm afraid I'll give birth to a girl. I wish it was a son."

Yun Tao looked at the lady helplessly: "I don't think that my son can't hold his head up because he doesn't have a son. I just think that without money, my family can't live a good life and will be looked down upon. You don't have to worry about this matter. Whether you give birth to a son or a daughter, mother will like it very much. Sooner or later, the three brothers will separate the family property. I won't give more property to one of them because of the one who has more sons. I also told you the truth. The property is divided equally among the three brothers. The future depends on their own abilities."

"You're about to give birth, so stop thinking about all this nonsense and just stay at home and take care of your baby."

The lady felt relieved when she heard her mother say this, but she was still very concerned about giving birth to a daughter. She hoped that she would give birth to a son and that he would be a surprise to her on the day he was born.

In the evening, Daniu finally came back and Yuntao pulled him aside.

"Daniu, did you say something in front of the lady? Yuntao repeated to Daniu what the lady said this morning."

Daniu said quickly, "Mom, I didn't say anything. How could I say these words? I never told you that I wanted a son in front of you. No matter if she gives birth to a son or a daughter, they are all my treasures."

"I'm not that kind of person. Besides, the lady is actually very sensitive. I often think twice before I speak, for fear that she will think too much after hearing me."

Yuntao was puzzled. He was fine before, why did he become so sentimental in the past few days?

Daniu suddenly remembered, "Mom, the lady's mother came to our house a few days ago, but you were not there. You seemed to be in the fields checking the crops. Her mother stayed in our room for a long time before coming out. After her mother left, the lady was not in a good condition, her eyes were red, and I asked her what happened, but she didn't say anything. She just said that there was sand in her eyes and didn't want to tell me a word. I didn't take it to heart at the time, so I didn't think too much about it."

Yun Tao: "That's because her own mother said something unpleasant, maybe asking her to give birth to a son. The lady felt a lot of pressure because she told me that she felt like a girl and was afraid that we would not like her if she gave birth to a girl."

"Your own wife, you should take good care of her when you have time. She is about to give birth, so you should be less busy with things outside, okay?"

Daniu: "Don't worry, mother, I know. I will treat the lady well. No matter whether it is a girl or a boy, I will treat them equally and love them both."

Ten days passed, and the workshop became busier and busier, as the business in the prefecture city became better and better. Yuntao's workshop was well-known in the surrounding area, and many people even wanted to work in the village workshop. The monthly income was still considerable. It was more than carrying a big bag in the town or prefecture city, and it was not so tiring, and I could go home every day to see my children and the elderly at home.

One day, when Yuntao and Daniu were checking the quality of the products in the workshop, they heard the old lady Chen from the village come to the workshop and shout, "Daniu, Yuntao, you two should go back quickly. The lady's water broke and she is at home now. Some villagers have gone to the midwife. You should go back quickly."

Yuntao and Daniu were extremely panicked when they heard this. They hurried out of the workshop and headed home.

When the two returned home, the midwife had already brought the lady into the room.

The two were waiting outside anxiously.

Daniu listened to his wife's screams: "Mom, is childbirth so painful? The lady has been screaming, it's so painful."

Yun Tao glanced at Daniu and said, "You think giving birth is easy, just like a hen laying an egg. Women have to go through a circle of hell when giving birth. Women in ancient times had to give birth forcefully. Nowadays, they can get painless injections to ease the pain. Women in ancient times were real warriors. They gave birth to so many children. Yun Tao is scared just thinking about it."

If it were me, I might not be able to bear the pain. It's really miserable just to hear it.

Yun Tao suddenly remembered what the lady said before, and said to Daniu, "Daniu, whether it is a boy or a girl, I hope you will treat them equally and be good to the lady. Do you understand? Mother, I hope you can be a good son, a good father, and a good husband."
