When Ji Zi’ang asked this, Liang Huimei’s expression became a little uncomfortable.
She lowered her head to look at Li Xu and Liu Guihua’s expressions.
Li Lei did not notice his Mother-in-law’s abnormality and said happily, “It’s a little girl. She’s in the nursery now. The nurse will bring her over later.”
When Li Lei spoke, Liu Guihua and Li Xu both had smiles on their faces.
Liang Huimei heaved a sigh of relief.
She was afraid that the Li family favored boys over girls and would be unhappy to see a granddaughter.
Fortunately, it seemed that the Li family didn’t have any complaints about Xiaoning because of this.
Ji Zi’ang could not wait any longer and went up to hold Li Lei’s hand. “Eldest Uncle, take me to see it now. I want to see it now!”
Seeing this, Li Lei hesitated.
To be honest, Ji Zi’ang was not the only one who wanted to see it. He wanted to see it too.
Meng Xiaoning saw Li Lei’s dilemma and said with a smile, “Go and take a look. There’s no need to crowd around me. Just go and take a look!”
Li Lei held Ji Zi’ang’s hand and happily said, “Let’s go. Uncle will take you to see your sister!”
Ji Zixuan and Ji Yuanyuan also followed closely behind.
Even Li Xu and Liu Guihua couldn’t help but want to take a look.
Meng Xiaoning saw that the two of them were restless and took the initiative to say, “Mother, Big Sister, you can go if you want to. I have my mother here.”
Liu Guihua smiled cmbarrasscdly and stood up. “Alright, I’ll go take a look then. I’ll be back soon.”
Li Xu and Liu Guihua had left. Zhang Kun was also embarrassed here, so he could only follow.
Liang Huimei and Meng Xiaoning were the only ones left in the ward.
Liang Huimei moved closer to Meng Xiaoning’s ear and whispered, “I think they’re all very happy. I just don’t know what your Father-in-law is thinking.”
Meng Xiaoning knew what her mother meant and immediately retorted, “My in-laws aren’t that kind of people. Otherwise, why would they send my Sister-in-law to college?”
In the past, when their family was poor, they insisted on letting her study in high school.
If it were a family that valued boys over girls, they would not do such a thing.
She had given birth to a daughter. Even if her in-laws were a little disappointed, they would definitely not show her any face. They also loved their granddaughter as much as they did.
Meng Xiaoning was well aware of this.
Liang Huimei said. “It’s good that the first child is a girl. You can have a second child.”
They were both from the countryside. The government could still consent to a second child if the first child were a girl. However, there would be no second child if the first child were a boy.
Meng Xiaoning frowned and said in an unpleasant tone, “Can you not say such things now?”
Liang Huimei saw that her daughter was unhappy and quickly changed the topic. She picked up the chicken soup beside her and said, “Have some chicken soup. Look at how well it’s stewed. Look at its color….”
Soon, Li Lei arrived at the nursery with a group of people.
There were many children in the nursery. Li Lei pointed at one of them and said, “That, that’s the Little Sister!”
Ji Zi’ang leaned on the glass and tiptoed to look inside.
Seeing how much effort he was putting in, Zhang Kun reached out and carried him up.
This time, he finally saw it clearly.
However, he looked disappointed. “Eldest Uncle, are you sure that’s Younger Sister? Why is she so ugly?”
Li Lei could not help but knock Ji Zi’ang’s head. “What nonsense are you talking about? She’s so beautiful!”
Ji Zi’ang touched his head, thinking his uncle must have bad eyesight.
“She’s obviously very ugly!” He mumbled.
“She just came out, and her feature hasn’t opened yet! When you were born, you were even uglier than Little Sister, right, Mom?” Ji Yuanyuan spoke up for her Little Sister.
Li Xu nodded. “It’s almost the same!”
Ji Zi’ang looked at Ji Yuanyuan and scratched his head in surprise. “I’m older than you, and you weren’t even born when I was born. How do you know that I’m uglier than a Little Sister?”
Ji Yuanyuan, who had been caught for a mistake, blinked and asked for help. “Mom, was Second Brother very ugly when he was born?”
Li Xu explained patiently. “All newborn children are basically like this. Look at the other children. They’re all like this too, right?”
Ji Zi’ang looked at the other children in the nursery.
As expected, the other children were the same.
It was red and wrinkly.
Ji Zi’ang smacked his lips and sighed in disappointment.
After all, Meng Xiaoning was young and had a natural birth. By the third day, he had almost recovered.
Li Lei went through the discharge procedures, found a taxi, and took Meng Xiaoning home.
The entire family doted on this child very much.
During Meng Xiaoning’s confinement period, besides feeding her milk, she was not allowed to do anything about the child.
A newly born child would change almost every day.
By the time Ji Zi’ang returned to his grandmother’s house on the weekend, the little sister had already turned from red and wrinkled to fair and tender.
Ji Zi’ang lay on the brick bed and stared at it without moving.
Li Lei still held a grudge! He still remembered how he said his daughter was ugly.
He immediately reached out to block her daughter’s face and asked Ji Zi’ang, “How is it? Is Younger Sister still ugly?”
Ji Zi’ang anxiously pried Li Lei’s hand away. “Not ugly, not ugly, not ugly at all.”
Li Lei was still not satisfied and asked again, “What do you mean by not ugly? Is she pretty?”
“Yes, yes!” Ji Zi’ang nodded hurriedly. “She’s beautiful! She’ll definitely be prettier than Yuanyuan in the future!”
Li Lei retracted his hand in satisfaction, and Ji Zi’ang looked at the young lady with interest.
It looked around with its big eyes, and its mouth kept moving, making a humming sound.
Her hands were so small, but they seemed quite strong as she waved them in the air.
Ji Zi’ang curiously put his index finger into the young lady’s hand.
The little girl clenched her fists.
Ji Zi’ang’s eyes widened.
Li Xu and Meng Xiaoning were chatting beside them.
“Have you given the child a name yet?”
Speaking of this, Meng Xiaoning found it a little funny. “No, her father has been flipping through the dictionary for half a month. He said that none of the words were good enough for his daughter and that he needed to give her a special name!”
When she was pregnant, they didn’t know the gender, so they didn’t name her in advance.
On the other hand, the parents of both parties had thought of a few backup plans.
After the child was born, Li Lei cherished it very much. He crossed out all the names that both parents had thought of.
He felt that the names they had chosen were too tacky.
He was determined to give his daughter a different name.
In the end, he didn’t know anything. He flipped through the dictionary for half a month and still couldn’t find a suitable name.
“Uncle, how about Li Jie? It was simple and easy to remember! Is it special enough?” Ji Zi’ang said casually as he lay beside the young lady.
Before Li Lei could say anything, Li Yong came in from outside and said, “Good, this name is good. When Big Brother and Sister-in-law have a second child, they’ll be called Li Mao!”
Understand? Courtesy??
Li Lei’s face darkened as he looked at the uncle and nephew. “Go, go, go. You two stay away from my daughter.”
