Chapter 107 Mother and daughter are safe
After Zhong Yunhong took two sips of wine, his face turned slightly red.
Darong had never known that the reason she and Zhong Yunxing were able to separate without being criticized was because of Zhong Yunhong's help. For a moment, she felt very grateful to Zhong Yunhong.
"So you don't like that girl?"
Zhong Yunxing chuckled after hearing this. He knew that this was not a big deal. Zhong Yunhong was the apple of his eye and she would not be really angry with him.
"Well, she's pretty, but our mom is attracted to her because she's from the town. I don't think she's easy to get along with."
"No place. How do you know it's difficult to get along with her?" Darong asked Zhong Yunhong with a smile.
"My sister-in-law's face is definitely not fake, she has a sharp face."
Zhong Yunhong looked mysterious, which made Darong and Zhong Yunxing laugh.
"Okay, I'll go back with you later to persuade our mom. She won't be angry with you. Just don't argue with her."
After a simple dinner, Zhong Yunxing accompanied Zhong Yunhong back to Erdaohezi.
By the time Zhong Yunxing came back, it was already past 9 o'clock.
"How's it going? Did you make up?" Darong asked casually when she saw Zhong Yunxing coming in.
"Hehe, this kid is just trying to hold his fart in. He's simply trying to drag me down to divert fire." Zhong Yunxing curled his lips and snorted twice.
"What's going on?" Darong looked at Zhong Yunxing with amusement.
"As soon as I arrived, my mother started to scold me, saying that we had colluded to deal with her. What did she mean by introducing me to someone? She was just making a random excuse."
"Ah? What should I do? Is Mom angry with me too?" Darong was extremely nervous when she heard Zhong Yunxing say that.
"It's okay, it's okay. The two of us can't fool an old lady. But Erhong has agreed. Let's try it with the girl first. If it works, it won't be considered that we cheated her."
In the end, Zhong Yunhong sacrificed the most. This brother is truly a loyal man.
The quiet and ordinary life slowly flows with the melody of time, and summer comes quietly in the overlapping of day and night day after day.
Darong's due date is getting closer and closer, and both she and Zhong Yunxing are immersed in the anticipation and joy of the new life.
As the due date approached, Darong's body began to show some changes.
Her belly was bulging, her gait became more clumsy, and she felt extremely tired with every step, but her face was always filled with a happy smile.
When she first moved back to the slum, Darong's life was filled with warmth and happiness.
"Rong, when is your due date?" Wang Niang, who lived in the same hospital, asked cheerfully as she looked at the bulky Da Rong.
"She's going to give birth at the end of this month."
"Oh, that's before the beginning of autumn." Wang Niang pondered for a moment, nodded and muttered softly.
But by the end of the month, Darong's stomach was very quiet. I don't know if it was because the little guy was too lazy, but he never showed any intention of coming out.
"It's possible that this baby of yours will be a girl." Darong's mother said as she helped Darong tidy up the baby's clothes in the front yard.
"What's the matter?" Darong half leaned against the wall, chewing a peach in her hand.
"A diligent boy is a lazy girl, and a lazy girl is a lazy girl. You are living a lazy life."
"A girl is a girl. I like girls. Girls look like their father. If they look like Zhong Yunxing, they will be beautiful with thick eyebrows and big eyes."
Darong said sweetly while stroking her belly.
"You are so precious, you are letting me have one now. If you give birth to a little girl, will your mother-in-law be happy?"
People of Darongma's generation generally still have the idea of favoring boys over girls.
Because of the family planning policy, Yutian City has strictly implemented the one-child policy since the 80s, and people of Darong's generation have no chance to have a second child.
Darong curled her lips after hearing this, and the peach in her hand instantly lost its sweetness.
"Boys or girls, if you dislike them, don't let me touch them. I will turn against anyone in the Zhong family who dares to say anything bad about my child."
Darong put the peach in her hand heavily on the cupboard and was so angry that she couldn't eat it anymore.
"Look at how you've been treated. No matter what your mother-in-law says, you just have to listen and endure it. You're someone else's daughter-in-law."
Darong's mother grew up with such education, so she still educated Darong in this way, so that Darong lived under the shadow of such education for many years, swallowing her anger and compromising.
But if life has not hit bottom, how can there be the strength to rebound?
It was not until the morning of the Beginning of Autumn, after Zhong Yunxing went to work, that Darong suddenly felt a different kind of contractions.
She quickly washed and hung the last basin of baby clothes and quilts, and the contractions began to become clearer and more regular.
"Madam Wang, I may be about to give birth. Please go and call me mom."
Darong originally wanted to walk to the backyard by herself, but as soon as she walked out of the house and reached the gate, the pain became unbearable. She patted the door of Wang Niang's house at the gate of the yard, and sat on a stool along the wall.
Wang Niang quickly sent the child to the backyard to call for help, and she touched Darong's belly to feel the frequency of the contractions.
"It's okay. You won't be able to give birth for a while. You still have time to go to the hospital."
People of Wang Niang and Darong's mother's generation all gave birth to their own children at home. With so many children, they naturally gained more experience.
After a while, Darong's mother and the third brother came running over. The third brother rode Wang Niang's tricycle and took Darong to the hospital.
For Darong, who was giving birth for the first time, she felt both nervousness and anticipation.
The pain of every contraction made her clench her teeth involuntarily, but whenever she thought about meeting her baby, her heart was filled with infinite anticipation.
As time went by, the pain became more frequent and more intense. Darong went from gritting her teeth to screaming in pain and then to crying bitterly. She went through a whole day and night of torture.
With the baby's first cry, Darong's world changed dramatically. She not only welcomed a new life, but also a brand new self.
When the baby's loud cry rang out, Darong seemed to have used up her last bit of strength and lay on the delivery bed gasping for breath.
But the moment the doctor handed the baby to Darong, all the pain and hardship seemed insignificant.
"Is it a boy or a girl?" The first question Darong asked when she looked at the child was the child's gender.
"A girl!" the midwife holding the baby answered, then took the baby aside and checked various physical indicators.
When Darong heard it was a girl, she couldn't hold back her tears and started sobbing softly.
"Hey, hey, hey, how can you, at such a young age, still favor boys over girls?" The old doctor at the side criticized Darong with displeasure.
"No, doctor... I don't favor boys over girls... My child will also have to go through this torture when he grows up... It hurts too much... It hurts too much..."
After hearing what Darong said, the old doctor smiled and said, "You must be heartbroken. All women have to go through this. It's okay, child."
