Probably sensing Yan Zhen's thoughts, the woman sat down, took the baby girl's hand and said, "I adopted this one."
"Didn't I always have no children? People said that if I adopted one, I might be able to bring home a younger brother or sister, so I adopted some unwanted children."
The little girl was well-educated, very polite, cleanly dressed, and had a fair face. At first glance, it was the result of being carefully raised by this family.
Yan Zhen smiled and nodded and said, "People have this saying that you have no luck in having children, but your children are destined to have brothers and sisters. If you can get pregnant in the future, maybe it is the luck that this child brings to you."
The woman nodded quickly, "Yes, yes! That's what I thought."
"Come on, Zhaodi, you go and eat some sweets first." The woman pointed to the stool nearby.
The girl named Zhaodi walked over obediently.
Zhaodi, this name... Yan Zhen just chuckled and said nothing.
Yanzhen began to check her pulse, and the woman talked about her own situation, "I was pregnant with one before, but the child was gone when she was five months old. Since then, I have never been pregnant again."
"They said the baby was injured during the induction of labor."
Yanzhen raised his head and asked, "Why not?"
"That's right, that's right, no, the baby won't grow anymore." The woman hesitated, not daring to look into Yan Zhen's eyes.
She was so flustered that Yan Zhen felt her pulse and said, "Don't be nervous. The child is a girl, right?"
"Ah?" the woman said with evasive eyes, "Yes, yes, I felt very regretful at the time. The child has already taken shape and will be born in three or four months. But who would have thought that she would die at this time? !”
Finally, she sighed, "I can only say that the child and I are not destined. I hope she can be born into a good family."
Yanzhen didn't want to expose the man's clumsy lie, but said nothing more.
Maybe it would have been better that the baby girl who died at five months had not been born, but if she had been born, she might have suffered something else.
The girl sat there obediently, eating pear candy. Yan Zhen glanced at her, and she smiled at him.
Yan Zhen suddenly asked: "If you get pregnant in the future, will the child still be a girl?"
The woman asked in a low voice: "Can't I guarantee that I will have a son?"
"No." Yan Zhen said coldly, "Being a boy or a girl is beyond my control."
In the end, the woman said with disappointment and helplessness: "Anything is fine. I haven't had a biological child for so many years. As long as I can get pregnant, a son is best, and a daughter is also fine."
The woman was very reluctant. If the result was a son in the end, why did she suffer the pain of inducing labor in the first place? She still wants a son.
Chen Juan rolled her eyes as she listened. She really wanted to encourage Yan Zhen to stop treating such people. Now that she can't give birth to a child is retribution!
"Cao Fengxia, right?" Yan Zhen started writing the prescription with his head down.
The woman nodded, "Yes."
Yan Zhen warned: "Wait and get the medicine. Take it once a day before going to bed at night."
Yan Zhen gave the recipe to Cao Fengxia and said, "Go."
Cao Fengxia looked at the house in her hands, waved to the female doll and said, "Zhao Di is gone."
As soon as she went out, Chen Juan couldn't help but cursed, "What the hell!"
"It's been five months, and you're still trying to find a way to kill the child! Why is this person so cruel? People like this can just let her have no children! She doesn't deserve a child of her own!"
Yan Zhen also felt uncomfortable in his heart, thinking about the girl named Zhaodi in his mind. If Cao Fengxia had a child of her own, would she still treat her adopted daughter well? What if it's not good?
It would be fine if Cao Fengxia was pregnant with a girl in the end, but if it was a prince, one can imagine Zhaodi's future fate.
But now it seems that Cao Fengxia is quite attentive to Zhaodi and educates her very well. It can also be seen from her clothes that she loves Zhaodi very much.
But she was afraid that Cao Fengxia would give birth to a boy as she wished.
For the first time, Yan Zhen didn't want to give someone a prescription, but he also didn't want to think of someone that bad.
For one day in a row, Yan Zhen saw all the infertile patients, and each one had a story behind him. As soon as he entered the door, he couldn't help but talk about the difficulties and grievances he faced on the road to having a child.
Yanzhen understood, but after thinking about it carefully, Yanzhen couldn't sympathize with them.
Yan Zhen had no time to have lunch after a busy day. When he returned to Tongzilou, Gu Weichen had already prepared the meal.
Shen An was holding a small basin, waiting for the dishes to be served, while Tiantian was holding chopsticks in her hands.
Gu Weichen was wearing an apron, holding a shovel in one hand and a pot in the other to shovel vegetables out.
When they saw Yan Zhen, Gu Weichen raised his eyebrows in a showy manner, "Daughter-in-law, you're back!"
Tiantian clutched her chopsticks and ran towards Yan Zhen, "Mom!"
Shen An raised the rice bowl in his hand above his head, "Mom, look at the food made by my Uncle Gu!"
Yan Zhen picked up Tiantian from the ground and held it in his hands. He touched Shen An's head with one hand and looked at Gu Weichen with a smile.
"Well, our family is going to have a chef!"
Gu Weichen was very proud of being praised, like a cat with its tail raised all the time.
"Then just tell me what you want to eat from now on! Let's just eat something simple today."
There are scrambled eggs with tomatoes, cabbage stew, and a cold dish, which looks very rich.
In the past, all Gu Weichen thought about was taking a rest when he had time, going to the canteen to eat when he was hungry, cooking a meal for his family, and getting together as a family. This kind of concept of family was not at all.
Now he also has a sense of belonging.
"Let's go home and eat!"
Gu Weichen held the plate in one hand and hugged Yan Zhen in the other, with a satisfied smile on his face.
At night, Yan Zhen and Gu Weichen were thinking about what happened during the day while lying on the bed.
How many women are running around and suffering because of the problem of having a son? Yan Zhen couldn't help but ask Gu Weichen, "If there is no biological child between us, can you accept it?"
Gu Weichen played with Yan Zhen's hair, looked up at her and said, "I love you and our child."
"Being pregnant for ten months is suffering after all. I don't want you to suffer, so you can decide for yourself whether to have a baby or not. I will fully cooperate with you."
Yan Zhen placed his chin on Gu Weichen's heart and asked, "Don't you feel any regrets?"
Gu Weichen lowered his eyes and looked at her, "With you here, I have no regrets."
"Why do you think we should have our own children? Is it because of the continuation of life? To carry on the family lineage? To provide for the elderly? In fact, in the end, we selfishly wanted to get more from our children at the beginning, and ignored that she is a healthy child. She has her own personality and will leave us. In the end, it is us who will accompany each other."
"I don't need anyone to provide for me until I die, and I don't need children to help me shine."
"So whether or not I have my own biological children is not very important to me. What I value more is ourselves and you."
Gu Weichen spoke in a warm and caring tone, patting Yan Zhen's back gently with his hand, as if he was talking about a very common thing.
And they now have An'an and Tiantian, who are also their children.
Their biological parents died to protect him. Gu Weichen had this responsibility and obligation to raise them. This was his responsibility. He never thought about getting anything from the children.
So, what happens if you have your own biological children?
"Many infertile women came to Xuanji Hall today and suffered a lot just to have children of their own."
"Some people even induced labor on their five-month-old daughters because they wanted to have a son. To be honest, I felt very sad."
Yan Zhen crawled into Gu Weichen's arms.
What if Gu Weichen is also the one who makes her insist on having a son? Yan Zhen thought a lot before.
But as soon as she returned home and saw Gu Weichen standing in the corridor cooking for her, with two children surrounding him, Yan Zhen immediately felt at ease.
In his last life, Gu Weichen was unmarried and had no children, which shows that he is not a reproductive cancer who is obsessed with having children.
Gu Weichen patted her gently with his hand and coaxed her, "Yan Zhen, you have to remember that you are the most important person in my heart from the beginning to the end."
Yan Zhen nodded gently, and the hair swept across the tip of his nose, tickling all the way to his heart.
Then Gu Weichen grabbed the quilt and put it over his head without saying a word.
Yan Zhen said, "Hey! Gu Weichen!"
Gu Weichen said with a bad smile: "Although I am not very passionate about having children, I am still very passionate about the process of how children are born."
