After traveling through time, I led the whole village to become rich!

The Zhang family members all got busy.

Xiang Chunhua was helped to the bed by Zhang Hubing, and Doctor Yu and Qi Wenpo came over quickly.

Mrs. Qi felt Xiang Chunhua's belly and said, "She's about to give birth. Go get some hot water."

Everything was ready at home, so there was no need to panic. Only Zhang Hubing was waiting outside the delivery room, looking very anxious.

There was also Zhang Xiaobing, who was also waiting outside the delivery room, wanting to know whether his mother had given birth to a brother or a sister for him.

Giving birth to a second child is faster than the first. It takes less than two hours from labor to birth.

Now that the family was well off and Xiang Chunhua was in good health, giving birth to the child was easy. She didn't even use the ginseng Zhang Hulan had prepared for her.

It was another son, weighing more than eight kilograms. Xiang Chunhua couldn't stop smiling.

Old Man Zhang and Mrs. Wang were also very happy. The more male offspring they had, the better, as they would expand the Zhang family.

Xiang Chunhua was in very good spirits. After the child was born, Li brought in a bowl of chicken soup.

Xiang Chunhua gulped down the chicken soup in a few mouthfuls and gnawed on the two chicken legs.

After Xiang Chunhua had eaten and drunk her fill, she undressed and let the little one suck her milk.

Wang, Li and Zhang Hulan were all in the room. Looking at the newborn baby, Zhang Hulan felt as if her soul was purified.

She didn't know why there would be women in this world who would abandon their children.

She has seen news reports more than once about newborn babies being thrown into toilets, bushes, and trash cans. How could these people be so cruel?

Xiang Chunhua's face was full of maternal love. She looked at Zhang Hulan and said, "Sister, you promised me, you name the child."

Zhang Hulan smiled and nodded, "Okay, I'll take it."

Zhang Hulan thought about it and since the New Year was coming soon, she said, "How about calling him Zhang Ruinian?"

Xiang Chunhua said, "This name sounds nice. Does it have any meaning?"

Zhang Hulan said, "Rui means auspicious, and nian means New Year, so together they mean a year of auspiciousness."

"Auspicious Year!"

"Okay, okay, this is a good name!"

For Wang and Xiang Chunhua, choosing an auspicious name is more satisfying than choosing a scholarly name.

Xiang Chunhua then said, "Sister, please give him a nickname."

Zhang Hulan said directly: "The little guy weighed over 8 kilograms when he was born, so let's just call him Ba Jin."

"Eight jin? Zhang eight jin?"

Xiang Chunhua chuckled, "Okay, okay, let's call him Bajin!"

In just a short while, the name and nickname were all there.

Zhang Hubing was also very satisfied with the name Zhang Ruinian, but he had some objections to the nickname Zhang Bajin, thinking it was not nice, but no one cared about his opinion.

Zhang Xiaobing wanted to take his younger brother out to play, but Wang slapped him several times.

……

After Ye Hongyun returned home, he heard from Wu Bangtai that Zhang Hulan had been given an official title by Emperor Yongxing and would stay in the capital.

Ye Hongyun was very happy. She couldn't go to Changning County after the New Year and had to stay in Beijing to take care of her pregnancy.

Moreover, Wu Deyong will work in Changning County for a maximum of one year and then return to the capital.

Since Zhang Hulan stayed in Beijing, she had one more place to play.

Due to their personalities, Ye Hongyun and the ladies in the capital city cannot see eye to eye.

She couldn't go to the palace to see her sister every day, so she would usually just play with Ye Hongling.

She likes Zhang Hulan's personality very much, and Ye Hongyun is really happy that Zhang Hulan can stay in Beijing in the future.

Otherwise, it will not be easy to meet Zhang Hulan again in the future.

The next day, when Ye Hongyun came to congratulate Zhang Hulan, she learned that Xiang Chunhua was pregnant, and it was another boy.

She was a little envious of the Zhang family, as they had such a large family.

Then Ye Hongyun felt sorry for Zhang Hulan again, "Alas, your elder brother and brothers all gave birth to boys, why don't you have a son?"

Ye Hongyun then winked at Zhang Hulan and said, "How about I introduce you to someone in the capital, and then you can have another son?"

Zhang Hulan thanked Ye Hongyun, "No, I'm free now.

I have money and a daughter, that's enough. I'll marry again? Make money for a man to spend? I haven't been kicked in the head by a donkey.

Look at me, I go wherever I want and do whatever I want. Who can control me?

Sister, I may not be as good as you in other aspects, but you should envy me for this one thing."

Ye Hongyun thought about it and it was true.

Although Wu Deyong treated her very well and her parents-in-law treated her very well, she still had to be cautious in everything she did and consider the Wu family.

Zhang Hulan's freedom is indeed something she cannot envy.

But she was still a little worried about Zhang Hulan, "What will you do when you get old?"

"I have a daughter?" Zhang Hulan answered as a matter of course.

"Your daughter won't get married? She'll have her own family and live her own life in the future."

Zhang Hulan said casually, "It's okay, when I'm old and can't move, I'll solve it myself.

There is no point in living too long. He can't go anywhere and needs someone to serve him when he eats, drinks, defecates and urinates. This is not enjoyment, it is suffering.

If I could take care of myself, I wouldn't bother my children.

When I can no longer move, I will end my life so as not to cause trouble to my children."

Hearing Zhang Hulan's words, Ye Hongyun's smile disappeared. She said seriously, "How can you think like that? Raising children is a way to support your parents in their old age. It's their responsibility to support them. How can this be considered a nuisance?"

Seeing Ye Hongyun's serious expression, Zhang Hulan said with a smile: "Well, I was just joking with you, but you took it seriously."

Zhang Hulan leaned close to Ye Hongyun and whispered, "You know Shanzi, who lives in my house. He is the husband I chose for my eldest daughter.

This child has a miserable life. His parents died early and he was raised by his grandmother.

His grandmother passed away last year. Before she died, she entrusted the child to me, so he was raised in my home.

This child is very good, hardworking, has a good personality, and is about the same age as my eldest daughter.

I'll talk to them about this when they're older.

If that child is willing, he will be my son-in-law in the future.

I will live with my eldest daughter in the future. It doesn't mean that I have to make that child my son-in-law, we just want to live together.

Their future children will still have his last name. I have so many nephews on my mother's side, they don't need to have my last name, Zhang."

Ye Hongyun pinched Zhang Hulan and said, "So you already had a plan."

Then Ye Hongyun asked, "Then your daughters will all stay in the capital next year, right?"

Zhang Hulan nodded. "They will all stay in the capital. As for my brother's children, I will find a college for them to study in the capital next year."

"There are many academies in the capital. I'll introduce you to a good one when the time comes." Ye Hongyun's eyes turned, and then he said with a smile: "You have found a husband for your eldest daughter, what about your second daughter?"

"What do you think of my son? He's about the same age as your second daughter. How about we become in-laws?"

Zhang Hulan looked at Ye Hongyun warily, "Okay, so you're planning on taking advantage of my second daughter..."
