Chapter 766 Chapter 765 Let’s Have a Daughter
Tang Zhitong put the letter back after reading it. Work had been piling up for a week, so he had to hurry up and read it and sign it.

After get off work, Tang Zhitong went to the escort department again and took home the large pieces of soybean paste that had been transported thousands of miles from the Northeast.

The two swallows are very hardworking. Their love nest has begun to take shape. Tang Zhitong estimates that it will be almost finished by tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.

Zhang Guifang saw her son bringing something back again, so she couldn't help asking one more question. After learning that it was a block of soybean paste, she complained, "Did you ask your aunt for it? Why did you send so much at once?"

"Mom, didn't I tell you? When I went there before the New Year, I left some beans for you and asked you to process them." Tang Zhitong explained without blushing.

"Did you say that? Why don't I remember it?" Zhang Guifang searched in her mind but couldn't remember it for a moment.

"I told you, when I bought corn from someone else, I also bought some soybeans and left them all for my aunt and sister-in-law." Tang Zhitong vowed as he took out a block of soybean paste from the sack.

"Alas, I'm getting old and my memory is not good." Zhang Guifang thought for a while, but couldn't remember it. Seeing that her son spoke so seriously, she believed it.

"You're busy with us all day long, so it's normal to forget things. It's called forgetfulness, but you can't say you're old. Besides, when you're old, who will help us take care of the children?" Tang Zhitong said jokingly as he neatly placed the soybean paste blocks on the table. There were eight blocks in total, about sixteen pounds.

"You'd better hurry up and have a baby first." Zhang Guifang became interested when the child was mentioned and wanted to urge him, but she held back because her daughter-in-law was in front of her.

"Yes, it's almost done. My uncle wrote to say that these big pieces of soybean paste need to continue drying in the shade. You can put them away later." Tang Zhitong put the sack aside and instructed.

"Okay. Are your uncle and aunt healthy? How's your aunt?" Zhang Guifang agreed, and slapped Fengzhi's restless little hand: "It's all hairy, don't mind being dirty, go wash your hands."

The child saw that the surface of the newspaper was covered with hair, black, gray, white and green, which looked beautiful, so he couldn't help but pick it a few times.

"Everything is fine. My sister-in-law will give birth in two months, and you will be a grandmother." Tang Zhitong winked at Feng Zhi. The beating was not undeserved. The more mold color on the soybean paste block, the better the fermentation was, and the more delicious the soybean paste would be. But it did look a little dirty.

"I feel at ease when I hold my grandson in my arms." Zhang Guifang muttered, braked the car in time, and slapped her son in the face: "Go wash your hands and get ready for dinner."

When Fengzhi saw her brother being beaten, she smiled unkindly with her mouth showing a missing baby tooth.

After dinner, Tang Zhitong returned to the room and spread out the letter paper to write a reply.

First of all, we have to dissuade Uncle and Tang Gang from coming to Sijiu City, let alone going into the mountains to dig wild ginseng.

In other words, the uncle did not come here under the pretext of sweeping the graves, otherwise Tang Zhitong really wouldn't know where to start to persuade him.

Student Xiao Wang sat at the desk with a book open. His eyes were wandering and he didn't turn the pages for a long time.

"What's going on?" Tang Zhitong spoke in inverted sentences fluently. He finished what he wanted to say and turned around to see classmate Xiao Wang who was in a daze.

"Do you think our mother only likes grandchildren?" Student Xiao Wang turned her head and asked her husband while tilting her head.

Tang Zhitong smiled: "How could that be possible? She just said that, to urge us."

"So do you like boys or girls?" Xiao Wang obviously didn't believe her husband's statement and asked him what he thought instead.

"As long as it's our child, I like it regardless of gender." Tang Zhitong saw that Xiao Wang was a little uneasy and tried to comfort him.

"Go away, do you think I can have a child with someone else?" Student Xiao Wang spat at her husband and was not satisfied with what he said.

"Hey, that's not what I meant. What I meant was that as long as we have a child, I will definitely not treat it differently. You see, I said I like daughters, but you gave birth to a son. You will inevitably think too much. I said I like sons, but you gave birth to a daughter, so I will feel uneasy. Is that right?" Tang Zhitong stopped writing the letter, twisted up the pen, turned around, and explained to classmate Xiao Wang.

He believed in Xiao Wang. Nowadays, most children are born to a couple. Even if there are a few women who do not give birth to their husband's children, excluding a handful of unruly ones, the remaining few are probably borrowed children because of long-term infertility after marriage. Such things must have been agreed by the husband and the in-laws. There is such a plot in "White Deer Plain".

After hearing what her husband said, Xiao Wang felt more at ease and expressed her true thoughts: "I don't really want a son. People say that nephews look like their uncles. I'm worried that my son will look like Jingmin. Wouldn't I have to beat him eight times a day?"

"Hahaha, you're overthinking it. Boys are bound to be a little naughty, but Jingmin is very sweet. When I first met Director Ye, he called me brother-in-law in a very affectionate way. Weren't you very satisfied at that time?" Tang Zhitong didn't expect that classmate Xiao Wang had such thoughts, and laughed happily.

"Pfft, how can it be the same? He is just naughty and rude, but he happened to use his words in the right place. Now when I see him, even if he did nothing wrong, I can't help but want to hit him a few times." As Xiao Wang spoke, he laughed to himself.

"Jingmin is just young. He will be fine when he grows up. By then, even if you want to hit him, you probably won't find a reason." Boys are bound to be naughty when they are young. When they grow up, they start to covet other people's cabbage. When they become fathers, they will probably settle down.

"Anyway, I don't want to have a son. I have to give birth to him with great difficulty and raise him, but I can't help beating him every day. He feels bad and I feel bad too." After growing up for many years, Xiao Wang has been the eldest sister for so many years and has completely understood her younger brother's personality. It will probably take another seven or eight years to educate him, which is too tiring.

"Okay, then let's have a girl." Some people say that whether to have a boy or a girl is decided by men, after all, only men can provide two chromosomes that determine the baby's gender. Others say that it is decided by women because the survival rates of XY chromosomes are different due to different pH values. This issue is more tricky, but it does not affect Tang Zhitong's comfort to Xiao Wang.

"What if I give birth to a daughter? Will my mother be disappointed?" Seeing that her husband didn't mind having a daughter, Xiao Wang was still not satisfied and began to worry about her mother-in-law's opinion.

"To be honest, my mom might feel a little bit. But I won't. I like girls very much. If they are as well-behaved and cute as you, I won't wait to love them. How can I be disappointed?" Tang Zhitong patted his thigh and motioned Xiao Wang to sit over.

"We are still young, and we are not going to have just one child. It would be good if the first child is a daughter, so that she can help take care of her younger siblings. Don't you think so?" After Xiao Wang sat down, Tang Zhitong gently embraced her in his arms, and then slowly patted her with his hands, as if coaxing a child to sleep.

"What if the ones behind are all daughters?" Student Xiao Wang did not follow her husband's line of thought and ran quite far.

"Then they are all daughters. People say that daughters are like little cotton-padded jackets. If we have a few more cotton-padded jackets, how warm will we be? Just thinking about it is wonderful." Tang Zhitong had never thought about this problem before, but he had seen many elderly people with both sons and daughters. The happiness index of elderly people with more daughters was obviously higher than that of those with more sons. "But you are the only man in our family. My mother must want to have more children, right?" Xiao Wang saw that her husband was sincere, but she was still worried about what her mother-in-law would think.

"There is no heir to the throne in my family, and I don't have any obsession with my son. If the situation you described really happens, I will talk to mom and won't let you be caught in the middle." Tang Zhitong didn't have much obsession with his son. Boys are slow to understand things, and not only do they require endless worries during their growth period, but even if they are raised with great effort, it is often easy for them to forget their mother after getting married.

"I think you are a little worried right now. Whether it's a man or a woman, it's all a matter of probability. The most important issue facing us now is the gentleman." Tang Zhitong scratched Xiao Wang's nose.

"Hate~" Xiao Wang sat on her husband's thighs, twisting her body restlessly and breathing rapidly.

"Are you clean today?" Tang Zhitong chuckled. He did it on purpose. He had been holding it in for several days and was counting the days.

"Aren't you going to write back to your uncle?" Xiao Wang did not give a direct answer, but the underlying meaning was clearly presented to her husband.

"The mail truck to Anton won't arrive until next Wednesday. Even if you write the letter now, you have to wait until Wednesday to leave. There's no rush." ​​Everything has its priorities. Tang Zhitong feels that some things are more urgent than writing a letter, so the letter can wait a little longer.

"Then I'll go get some water." Xiao Wang rubbed her husband's cheek and suddenly jumped up.

Looking at his cheerful beloved, Tang Zhitong smiled. Since Xiao Wang was already like this, there was no need to test her whether she wanted to have a child or not. The human body was often more honest than the mouth.

That night, Xiao Wang bit a hole in the towel.

"How's your incubator going?" After finishing, Xiao Wang simply cleaned up and put a pillow under him, not feeling sleepy at all.

"There is some progress. There is a key component that still needs to be processed. I have contacted the company and will go there next Tuesday. I believe it won't be long before there are results." Tang Zhitong was lying on his back with his arms and legs spread out. The dopamine effect was very strong and it had not dissipated yet.

Although Xiao Wang was already prepared, Tang Zhitong neither used cheats to speed up the process nor cheated to prevent pregnancy. As long as it was his own seed, he would just let nature take its course.

In a few decades, life will get better, but the possibility of children having genetic mutations will be greater, and they may accidentally mutate into the child of Mr. Wang next door.

It is said that those who do DNA testing identify about 25% of non-biological fathers every year. What's worse, the biological father of the child is related to the legal father listed in the household registration book, which is very shocking.

"How's Sister Jiang doing? Is the baby okay?" Xiao Wang asked about the incubator. Tang Zhitong felt that she was still a little worried, but he didn't hear her say anything after he finished speaking. Tang Zhitong tilted his head and saw Xiao Wang absorbing positive energy over there.

"He's doing fine. He's been discharged from the hospital. I wrote to Sister Jiang and she said the baby is growing well." While Wang was trying to find his luck, he was thinking about finding an opportunity to visit Jiang Ye again. Jiang Ye was his mentor at work, so he naturally couldn't just visit him once and forget about it.

"Relax, our child will definitely not live in an incubator. It's getting late, stop carrying him and go to sleep." Tang Zhitong yawned. He hadn't tasted meat for more than a week. This competition was not only more powerful than before, but also took a lot longer. It was not as easy as running 3,000 meters.

"Hateful!" It would have been fine if she hadn't mentioned it, but once she did, Xiao Wang pulled out the pillow in embarrassment and slapped her husband twice.

"Wipe it off and go to sleep. These two days are not good weather. It's a waste of effort for you to keep going like this." Tang Zhitong touched the toilet paper with one hand and raised the other arm to block it twice to prevent the sticky stuff from sticking to his face.

"Yeah." Xiao Wang threw down the pillow, took the paper, tore off a little and put it inside her clothes, then snuggled into her husband's arms, found a comfortable position and closed her eyes.

On the morning of April 4, Sunday, the Yan Zi couple were still busy in their wedding room. Feng Zhi noticed that there were some different marks on Xiao Wang's neck. She stood on her feet and stared at her sister-in-law's neck, and asked with concern: "Sister-in-law, is your neck bitten by a mosquito? Let me apply some cooling oil on it for you."

Since the advent of "Dragon and Tiger Cooling Oil" in 1954, cooling oil has quickly become a must-have for people in Beijing in summer. It is inexpensive and has a wide range of uses. It can not only relieve the discomfort caused by mosquito bites, but also has the effects of relieving heat, relieving pain, and refreshing.

"No, it doesn't itch anymore, thank you." Xiao Wang grabbed his sister-in-law who was about to get some cooling oil, his face flushed, and glared at the "big mosquito".

The big mosquito chuckled and said, although Fengzhi is a greedy little guy, she knows how to care about others, which is not bad.

In sharp contrast to this is respect for the people.

Although Xiao Wang had changed into a high-necked dress to cover it, Jingmin was sharp-eyed. After seeing it, he pointed at Xiao Wang and taunted her: "Sister, sister, was your neck bitten by your brother-in-law?"

After hearing this, Jingying looked up and glanced, then quickly lowered her head and held back her laughter, fearing that her elder sister would take her anger out on her.

After hearing this, Xiao Wang felt embarrassed and annoyed. He felt embarrassed because he didn't pay attention last night, and he felt annoyed because Jingmin shouldn't know such things so clearly at his age!

"What a bad boy! Who did you learn all this nonsense from?" Xiao Wang's face turned red and he rolled up his sleeves to teach his little brother a lesson.

Tang Zhitong looked a little embarrassed. He raised the leek box in his hand and said to Director Ye and his sister-in-law, "Mom, Jingying, try the leek box. It's fresh out of the pot."

"Brother-in-law! Brother-in-law! Do you care about your wife? You beat me every day!" After Jingmin was caught, he struggled and asked Tang Zhitong for help.

Tang Zhitong looked straight ahead and turned a deaf ear to the matter. This kid needed to be beaten. Even if he saw through the matter, he couldn't say anything.

Then he remembered the conversation the couple had last night. Comparing Fengzhi and Jingmin, he felt that it was indeed easier to raise a girl, so why not just have a daughter.

Tang Zhitong wanted to take back the praise he gave Jingmin last night...
