A Small Farmer Girl 's Story of Making a Fortune by Farming

1

As the first ray of morning sunshine shone into the farmyard, a baby's cry pierced the sky.

　　"It's a daughter!" The midwife opened the door and congratulated the host.

　　Shen Chunsheng, who had been waiting outside the house all night, had red eyes. The moment the baby was born, his heart, which had been hanging in the air all night, finally settled down and joy appeared on his face.

　　But when Shen Chunsheng heard the midwife say it was a girl, he still felt a little disappointed.

　　When Mrs. Wu next to her heard that it was a granddaughter, she turned around and left without even entering her daughter-in-law's door.

　　The midwife looked embarrassed and told Shen Chunsheng that he could go into the house to see his wife and child.

　　As soon as Shen Chunsheng stepped into the room, he strode forward and held his wife's hand, feeling heartbroken.

　　"Chunsheng..." Xu had already lost all her strength due to childbirth. She only called her husband softly and nodded her chin towards the bed, signaling her husband to look at their child.

　　The newborn baby was all red, only slightly bigger than his palm, with wrinkles on his forehead like a little old man, and was so small that he looked like a little mouse.

　　After just one look, Gu Chunsheng turned his head back to care about his wife.

　　In the kitchen of the Shen family, Wu started a fire in the stove. When the fire became strong, she put some dry firewood in and sighed, "Ah, I don't know what sin my Shen family has committed. One by one, no one can give birth to a son!"

　　Old Man Shen just came in to get his vegetable basket. Upon hearing this, he frowned and said, "What are you talking about? This is the second son's wife's first child. There is still a long time to go. Why can't she give birth to a son? Besides, even if it is a girl, she is the bloodline of our Shen family! Hurry up and kill the old hen, stew it into soup and send it to the second son's wife!"

　　"You gave birth to a money-losing thing and you still want to drink chicken soup, bah!" Mrs. Wu cursed in her heart.

　　Even though she was reluctant in her heart, Mrs. Wu still killed the old hen that laid eggs under the pressure of the old man's authority.

　　Mrs. Wu gave birth to five sons in a row. Although there was a famine in the early years, two of them died. Even so, she still had three sons.

　　Not to mention walking sideways in Daliushan Village, he can still hold his back straight.

　　But in this generation, her Shen family didn't have a grandson.

　　The eldest daughter-in-law was injured after giving birth to a daughter and could not have another child. She placed all her hopes on the second daughter-in-law, but she also gave birth to a daughter.

　　What a sin she has committed!

　　If you don't have a son in your family, you will be gossiped about and criticized by others.

　　After the porridge was cooked, the old hen was put on the stove to stew.

　　The eldest son and his wife, who had gotten up early to work in the fields, and the third son also returned home. The first thing they asked about when they got home was, of course, about the delivery of the second son's wife.

　　"It's born!" Mrs. Wu put the pickles on the table with a very gloomy face.

　　There was no need to guess, everyone knew that the second brother's wife (second sister-in-law) gave birth to a daughter.
