Siheyuan: A Very Happy Era

Chapter 441 This is really inappropriate

"Hey, what do you think we should give to Sister Juan's three children as a one-month-old gift?"

As she was talking, Wu Zhaodi suddenly asked with a distressed look on her face.

Among all the sisters, perhaps her family conditions are the worst.

Even though she has saved some money through her work at Xiangmi Zhai now, the gifts she can give out are at most some things that can be bought with money on the market. She is nothing like Shang Xiuzhen, Shen Fengxia and others who can afford some gold or silver jewelry.

However, even if they could come up with it, it would not be suitable to give it to Luo Huijuan's child now.

On the one hand, it was because the social environment did not allow it, and on the other hand, it was because Wu Zhaodi could not afford it.

We can't let Wu Zhaodi embarrass herself in front of Luo Huijuan alone, right?
Therefore, after discussing it over and over again, they still haven't come up with an idea.

Wu Zhaodi was the least confident, so she was the first one to ask questions.

Shang Xiuzhen, Pan Qiaoyan and others felt a headache for a moment when they saw Wu Zhaodi like this.

After all, Luo Huijuan is the eldest lady in the family and the eldest sister of all the sisters.

Now that the eldest sister has finally risked her life to give birth to three boys for the family, then as the younger sisters in a big family, whether it is to show their willingness to be humble or to please Luo Huijuan, they must come up with a better post-natal gift.

Moreover, for the sake of unity among sisters, this one-month gift must be something that everyone can afford.

After a long silence, Xu Yuying, a local, finally spoke up first and suggested, "How about we follow the rules of Jinshanbao and send a diaper and some eggs?"

After these words were spoken, the others rolled their eyes speechlessly, making Xu Yuying feel embarrassed.

Because she knew that the rules she was talking about were for relatives and friends, and did not apply to their own family members.

If they really gave these things, wouldn't Luo Huijuan think that they were being distant?
"okay!"

Shang Xiuzhen saw that the atmosphere had fallen into silence again. As a martial artist, she couldn't stand the hesitation, so she waved her hand and said, "If you ask me, we don't need to discuss it anymore. Let's just do as we agreed at the beginning and not give anything as a gift.

Anyway, you all know what kind of personality Sister Juan has. She doesn’t care about that kind of thing at all. If we really give her a gift, it will make her angry instead!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone else nodded in agreement, and felt secretly relieved.

In fact, they don’t necessarily have to give gifts. The main reason they are so conflicted is that they are worried that Luo Huijuan will have a problem with them.

Now that Shang Xiuzhen has said so, they can just go along with it and agree to it.

"How is it? How did you guys come to a conclusion?"

Not long after, Liang Xianglian suddenly walked in from the outer room and asked with concern on her face.

"Aunt Liang!"

Seeing this, Shang Xiuzhen quickly replied, "We just discussed it and decided not to send anything."

"How can this be possible?"

When Liang Xianglian heard this, she immediately became anxious.

In fact, it was she who first proposed the idea of ​​giving gifts!

After all, Shang Xiuzhen, Pan Qiaoyan and others are already pregnant, and they can be said to be family members who eat from the same pot as Luo Huijuan.

As for her and Erniu, they had never even met Luo Huijuan, so naturally they did not dare to act so arrogantly, for fear that they would do something wrong and Luo Huijuan would have opinions about them.

Shang Xiuzhen knew this very well. When she saw Liang Xianglian like this, she quickly spoke to comfort her, "Aunt Liang, don't worry. Sister Juan is not the kind of petty person. She won't bother with us about such a small matter.

What's more, if we gave her a gift, wouldn't it seem like we didn't consider Sister Juan as our own family?

So you should just put your heart back in your stomach, wait patiently for Qiangzi to bring Sister Juan here, and then express your feelings to her!"

"That"

Liang Xianglian hesitated for a moment when she heard this, and then she saw that Shang Xiuzhen and the others had already made up their minds, so she finally nodded and agreed, "Okay then!"

At this point, she could only hope in her heart that Luo Huijuan was really as generous as Shang Xiuzhen said.

Otherwise, if they offended the lady in charge, then she and Erniu would never be able to enter Li Guoqiang's house again.

Soon, more than half a month passed in the blink of an eye, and Luo Huijuan also successfully completed her confinement.

On the day she was discharged from confinement, Li Guoqiang followed the plan they had agreed upon and asked Qu Yinfeng to stew ten large geese at home. He then sent a bowl of goose meat to every household in the village, and then prepared two tables of banquets, inviting the team leaders and several close relatives to come and have a great time.

During the meal, Xu Guangfu looked at the three children in the arms of Luo Huijuan, Xu Yuping and Ma Shufen. He tried to hold back, but finally couldn't help asking, "Hey, Qiangzi! Have you named these three kids? Do you want me to help you name them?"

"Ah!"

Li Guoqiang was delighted when he heard this, then he quickly waved his hand and declined politely, "Uncle Fu, it's not that I don't want you to help name these three boys, but the old man in the family has already said that he wants to name them himself."

"That's it!"

When Xu Guangfu heard what Li Guoqiang said, he felt disappointed for a moment, then nodded angrily and reminded him, "Then remember to ask Yuliang to issue a certificate, otherwise you will not be able to register your household registration when you return to the city."

"Ok!"

Li Guoqiang couldn't help but feel amused when he saw Xu Guangfu like this, and then he leaned over and suggested, "How about, when Sister Ying gives birth, you can help her choose a name for the child?"

"No, no, no!"

When Xu Guangfu heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and then he seemed to have thought of something, and hurriedly shook his head and refused, "You should let your father choose the name!"

After saying this, he glanced at Luo Huijuan's three children, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

Although he knew that with Xu Yuying's status and position, the child she gave birth to would be destined to not be able to compete with Luo Huijuan's child, he also did not want Xu Yuying's child to be denied Li Dawei's recognition because of such a small matter as naming.

"That!"

When Li Guoqiang heard what Xu Guangfu said, he did not force him and just nodded and agreed.

In fact, he didn't care much about the child's name.

No matter who gave the name, as long as they were his children, he would treat them all the same. The only difference was that Luo Huijuan's children were his first, second, and third children.

Men usually have a special feeling for their first child.

Not to mention, Luo Huijuan is his legal wife, which is essentially different from the children of other women.

Whether for the sake of family harmony or for Luo Huijuan's long-term tolerance towards him, he must place these three little ones in a higher position than other children.

Although this seems a little unfair to the children of Shang Xiuzhen, Pan Qiaoyan and others, how many things in this world are fair?

Soon, the banquet ended one after another.

Xu Guangshou deliberately stayed until the end, pulled Li Guoqiang to a corner, and asked in a low voice: "Hey, Qiangzi! Did you really help your wife deliver the baby?"

"Yup!"

Li Guoqiang was slightly stunned when he heard this, then nodded and said, "Why do you suddenly ask this?"

"Whoa!"

Xu Guangshou waved his hand, and then explained a little embarrassedly: "Isn't this your brother Yuchang's wife? She will give birth in a few months! I was wondering if you could help her deliver the baby?"

"Forehead"

When Li Guoqiang heard this, he was speechless, and then he quickly said, "Master, this is really inappropriate. After all, I am a man, how can a man help someone give birth?
Besides, Brother Yuchang and his wife are in the old city, there are many good doctors in the big hospital there, it's just a baby, you don't need to worry so much."

"That"

Xu Guangshou was somewhat reluctant when he heard what Li Guoqiang said, but he also knew that his request was a bit excessive, so he could only nod and agree: "Okay then! Then let him send his wife to the hospital. Anyway, he doesn't need that little money."

After saying this, he turned his head and looked at Luo Huijuan's three children, feeling a little regretful.

In his opinion, if Li Guoqiang could help with the delivery, then he really wouldn't have to worry about anything going wrong.

After all, Li Guoqiang delivered all three babies safely, so if he could have one baby, then he should be able to do it safely!

At this time, Li Guoqiang didn't know what Xu Guangshou was thinking. When he saw that Xu Guangshou had given up the idea, he immediately felt relieved.

Although in later generations, there are also many male doctors working in obstetrics, but in that era, especially in the countryside, such matters are very sensitive. If you are not careful, people will gossip about you for the rest of your life.

It would be fine if he didn't know him, but the problem is that he is Xu Guangshou's apprentice, so it is really embarrassing to do this.

Therefore, he could only push the matter aside.

As for the issue of Xu Yuchang's wife's delivery, at worst he would just use his little world to guard her in secret and make sure nothing would go wrong.

Not long after, when he sent Xu Guangshou away, this month-end banquet came to a successful conclusion.

Qu Yinfeng, Zhu Caixia and Zhu Caiyan were responsible for cleaning up the dishes and doing the housework, while Xu Yuping and Ma Shufen helped Luo Huijuan get hot water for the three little ones to take a bath.

By the time everything was done, it was already past three in the afternoon.

While feeding the youngest, Luo Huijuan looked up at Li Guoqiang, who was sitting on the edge of the kang teasing the eldest, and urged him softly, "Why are you still sitting here? You should go and accompany Xiuzhen and the others!"

"Row!"

Hearing this, Li Guoqiang looked at Luo Huijuan, and then thought of Shang Xiuzhen and others who were approaching their due date, so he did not refuse, but nodded and said, "Then I'll go over right away. If you have anything, ask Sister Ping and the others to help. Don't be too polite."

After saying that, he stood up and walked out, said hello to Xu Yuping and others, and then drove the sled out of Jinshanbao.

After walking out of the village, he used teleportation to head straight to the villa in the mountains, not daring to waste any time.

Fortunately, when he got there, he found that Shang Xiuzhen, Pan Qiaoyan and others were not only fine, but were gathered in the house talking and laughing, and they were living a very comfortable life.

So, he did not rush into the house, but first patrolled the area within a radius of ten miles, and captured all the wild animals that accidentally crossed the border into his small world to serve as his food reserves.

After all the hidden dangers around him were cleared, he took out the sled from his little world and slowly returned to the villa, where he just happened to meet Erniu who came out of the house to pour water.

When she saw Li Guoqiang, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she hurriedly took a few steps forward and shouted, "Brother Qiangzi!"

"Ok!"

Li Guoqiang nodded slightly in agreement, then jumped off the sled.

Seeing this, Erniu hurried forward and helped take down the things on the sled.

Most of them were food, and a small part was children's clothes and quilts made by Xu Yuping and others.

Although Liang Xianglian and Erniu also helped with some of the work some time ago, they were not as experienced as Qu Yinfeng and Xu Yuping, and the clothes they made were not very good-looking.

Moreover, this also reflects the kindness of Xu Yuping and others.

Not long after, Erniu and Li Guoqiang brought all the things into the house.

Shang Xiuzhen, Pan Qiaoyan and others breathed a sigh of relief when they saw this, and then hurriedly greeted Li Guoqiang with a smile.

Then, when they saw the small clothes and quilts that Xu Yuping and others had helped make, they showed happy smiles on their faces, and then they started to put them in order.

Since Li Guoqiang had always refused to tell them whether the baby was a boy or a girl, they were not in a hurry to choose. They just imagined in their minds the scene of dressing the baby with their own hands.

Erniu was standing aside, and when she saw this scene, she couldn't help but reveal a hint of envy in her eyes.

If possible, she wished she could be like Shang Xiuzhen and others, give birth to a child for Li Guoqiang, and then take care of the child and live happily.

It's a pity that Li Guoqiang once said that she is still relatively young and it will take at least a few more years.

Thinking of this, her expression dimmed slightly, and then she hurriedly turned around and went out to get hot water for Li Guoqiang to wash his hands and feet.

Later, Liang Xianglian, who heard the noise, ran over from the room next door where Sanwazi lived and prepared to help cook.

After washing up, Li Guoqiang immediately went to carefully check the items needed for delivery, to avoid any mistakes.
