"Why is it a girl? This belly doesn't live up to expectations at all." When Jia Zhang saw that it was a girl, she immediately became unhappy.
"Comrade Jia, please pay attention to your words. This is no longer the old society." Fan Shasha and Sun Tiantian said seriously.
"Ah, I'm sorry, don't get me wrong. I didn't look down on girls, I just always thought they were boys." Jia Zhang quickly explained awkwardly.
"Okay, let's not talk about this for now, and hurry up and help clean the handle." The eldest mother persuaded a few people.
After Qin Huairu and the children were cleaned and everything was done, they opened the door and prepared to leave.
"How about it, can I go in?"
"Well, the inside is already done, but your wife has given birth to a girl. I think your mother doesn't like it very much. You can't have your mother's old ideas. It's a new society now, and women can hold up half the sky." Sun Tiantian said to Jia Dongxu.
"Okay, okay, thank you. Don't worry, I like both boys and girls. I'll go in and take a look first." After Jia Dongxu said that, he hurried into the house to see Qin Huairu and the child.
"Daughter-in-law, you have worked hard. Don't worry. No matter whether it is a boy or a girl, they are our children. I will not dislike her. I have already thought of the name of the child, so I will call her Jia Dang. Little Dang is fine."
"Well, it's up to you." Qin Huairu saw that Jia Dongxu didn't seem to be lying to her, and she was relieved. There was no way, this was the case in this era, and luckily the first one she gave birth to was a boy. If she had also given birth to a girl first, this might not be the case.
After the two of them returned to the house, their men had already gotten up and started cooking.
"Qin Huairu gave birth to a girl. Jia Zhang is very dissatisfied with Qin Huairu." Fan Shasha took a sip of porridge and said to Luo Xingchen.
"It's normal. This is how it is in this era. The ideas of the older generation cannot be changed easily. In some remote rural areas, if a girl is born, she will secretly throw it away."
"Well, why don't old people like girls?"
"First of all, this matter is the reason for the emergence of traditional concepts. Daughters are the water poured out by married daughters. Only by raising sons can the family be passed down. Although we have emancipated our minds and made progress in society, This concept still exists, especially in some backward areas where the preference for boys over girls is serious."
"In a society that used to be male-dominated, and there were some wars and chaos, there must be an advantage if there are more men in the family. For example, in a village, one family gave birth to three sons, and another family gave birth to three daughters. After two When the children grow up, if there is a conflict between the two families, do you think the family with more boys will be extremely powerful, because there are more mature men. "
"Then do you like boys or girls?" Fan Shasha suddenly asked.
"Well, I really didn't lie to you. Comparatively speaking, I prefer girls. You should be able to tell from the two Lele Doudou."
"Happy, your dad said he likes girls, did you hear that?"
Luo Xingchen then turned his head and saw Luo Kaixin who had woken up at some time on the kang, looking at him angrily with half of his body propped up.
Luo Xingchen quickly explained to Kaixin.
"Hahahaha." Fan Shasha, who had succeeded in her scheme, couldn't help but laugh when she looked at Luo Xingchen who was anxious to explain.
Today, Happy ignored Luo Xingchen.
When it was time to get off work, Luo Xingchen took Luo Kaixin to the department store for some shopping. Only then did he gain Luo Kaixin's forgiveness.
This year has passed quickly, but the system still prompts an unknown error sign-in failure every time I sign in.
July 20, 1959.
"It's the 459th day of missing the day of signing in. Star, why aren't you awake yet? Your brother's mall coins are about to be used up."
Starting from the end of the New Year, the original three-year disaster still came.
Since March, victims have been arriving one after another to escape the famine.
Luo Xingchen often exchanged mall coins for various grains and quietly placed them in places where disaster victims gathered. Occasionally, he would drive out to distant places to drop off some grains.
Even in June, when the disaster became more and more serious, Luo Xingchen even piled food into the national granary several times late at night. However, the affected area was nationwide, and this food could not be distributed much.
Luo Xingchen looked at the remaining 1,000,000 mall coins on the panel.
"I'm sorry, I'm not a saint. I keep the rest for myself. I also have a family." Luo Xingchen sighed deeply and turned off the panel.
On July 31, Sun Tiantian gave birth to a boy, and He Yuzhu officially became a father.
At Luo Xingchen's house in the evening.
"Xingchen, Kaixin is already 7 years old, and Qin Huairu has already given birth to a second child. If we don't have another child, Kaixin would also like to have a companion. It just so happens that he lives by himself now." Fan Shasha said.
"If you want to have a baby, then let's have another baby."
After the two of them finished speaking, they began to study how to position themselves to give birth to a girl.
By 1960, the disasters were becoming more and more serious, and supplies were becoming increasingly scarce.
On February 19, 1960, Fan Doudou officially turned 18, which is beyond the brain power of ordinary people. He has now completed college knowledge, and there is no point in continuing to go to school.
"Brother-in-law, sister, I am now over 18 years old, and supplies are getting less and less now, so I want to be a soldier."
"Why, I'm afraid that my brother-in-law won't be able to support you."
"Well, why don't you be afraid? This sentence does not come out of thin air. In addition, my sister is pregnant again, and I have always wanted to join the army."
"You don't have to worry about your family. You should eat and drink as you should. Just follow Kaixin's example. You see, he doesn't care about so much all day long. The food is so delicious."
"Dad, please stop talking about me. Why do I eat more because I am trained like this by you every morning?"
"Your father didn't tell you, you eat your own food, exercise well, and when you grow up, your father will also send you to join the army." Fan Shasha said.
I happily finished the meal after three times five divided by two.
"I'm going to do my homework. School is about to start. I still have a lot of homework."
Luo Xingchen thought seriously for a while.
"You have thought about it, and you really want to be a soldier. Even after these two years of training, I still want to tell you that if you go to the army, it will definitely not be an ordinary army. What is flowing in you is Father Fan's. Bloodline, do you know what this means?"
"Well, I'm not afraid. Even if one day I die on the battlefield like my father, I won't have the slightest fear."
"Don't talk nonsense, there's no such thing as death." Fan Shasha said hurriedly.
"Hey, to be honest, you are the last member of the Fan family. I really don't want to send you to the army. I regret teaching you so many skills now."
"Brother-in-law, I'm serious. Although my father doesn't look like me in my memory, I am his child, and that's enough."
"Hey, okay. After dinner, you can come with me."
