In that era, Lin Guoqiang knew better than anyone how difficult life was for a woman who could not give birth to a son.

Li Hongxia called her a "hen that doesn't lay eggs," while Zhou Guifang and Xu Qingqing called her a "dead household" behind their backs.

Even the women in the village are spreading rumors that...the daughter-in-law of Lin Guoqiang's family cannot give birth to a son.

Zhao Sumei never said it in front of others, but Lin Guoqiang knew that she was suffering in her heart.

Every time she sees other people's boys, her eyes become dim.

She's not jealous, she's regretful, she's remorseful.

Lin Guoqiang never blamed her.

He feels that boys and girls are the same, they are all his children, and he feels pain for them all.

But Zhao Sumei didn't think so.

She was oppressed by this family, this village, and this era, and felt that she owed the Lin family a son.

In this life, Lin Guoqiang will not let that happen again.

"Su Mei," Lin Guoqiang held her hand, his voice low but steady, "Listen to me."

Zhao Sumei raised her head and looked at him.

“From tomorrow on, you don’t have to worry about things in the store.

You just take care of yourself at home, take care of the children, cook, and don't have to do anything else.

I will do the work in the fields, and Zhijun and I will do the work in the shop."

"How can that be done? The store is so busy..."

"You're busy." Lin Guoqiang interrupted her, "Your task now is to take good care of your body and give birth to the child safely.

Don't worry about anything else."

Zhao Sumei's eyes were red, she lowered her head, tears falling on the back of her hands.

"Guoqiang," her voice was muffled and crying, "you are so good to me."

In this day and age, whose wife doesn’t work?

They even work more than men. There are many people working in the fields with their big bellies.

However, Lin Guoqiang said that she would not be allowed to work in the future and that she would be able to raise her child at home with peace of mind.

Lin Guoqiang reached out and took her into his arms, resting his chin on the top of her head.

"You are my wife, if I don't treat you well, who will I treat well?"

Zhao Sumei cried in his arms for a while. After crying enough, she wiped her tears and raised her head to look at him.

"Do you mean it's a boy or a girl?"

"I don't know." Lin Guoqiang smiled, "I like both boys and girls."

"I want a boy." Zhao Sumei's voice was very low, as if she was afraid of being heard.

Lin Guoqiang looked at her and felt sad.

"Boys and girls alike," he said again.

Zhao Sumei said nothing more, buried her face in his chest and closed her eyes.

Lin Guoqiang hugged her and gently placed one hand on her belly.
