Chapter 208: Chapter 208: Birthday Egg
“Mom is pregnant with a little brother, Mom is pregnant with a little brother!” The youngest, Laidi, immediately jumped for joy, hopping and skipping around.
“That’s wonderful, our family finally has a boy.”
Da Ya and Er Ya were very excited and happy, for this was the boy their family had been longing for so many years.
Zhaodi also showed a genuinely pleased smile and relaxed inwardly with relief, thankfully, her mother’s pregnancy timeline matched her memories.
This meant that, just like in her previous life, her mother was indeed carrying a boy.
Zhao Xiaojuan even waved her hand grandly, declaring joyfully, “Xiaojuan, now that you’re pregnant with a boy, you are a great hero for our Jiang Family. From now on, you can have an egg every three days to get more nutrition and give birth to a healthy boy for the Old Jiang Family.”
She had long since etched the things Zhaodi had sworn earlier into her subconscious and subconsciously believed that Zhao Xiaojuan was definitely carrying a boy.
“Thank you, Mom.” Zhao Xiaojuan, grateful for the promise of eggs, thanked her mother-in-law.
She knew she was lacking in nutrition, and now that she had finally conceived a boy, she couldn’t afford any mistakes; she had to take good care of herself and strive to give birth to a healthy boy.
In fact, all three daughters-in-law of the Jiang Family had this privilege when they were pregnant before.
But ever since Zhao Xiaojuan successively had three daughters, Zhang Guihua no longer allowed her eggs.
Guihua even blamed her for her unproductive belly, for having so many loss-making daughters and wasting those precious eggs she had saved up.

“Xiaojuan, don’t stand outside, let’s go inside and sit down for a rest,” Jiang Changhe, retrieving a sliver of sanity amidst his ecstasy, quickly helped Zhao Xiaojuan into the house to rest.
But the silly smile on his face just couldn’t be suppressed; he was going to have a son!
Seeing this, Sun Lixia, who had been standing in the yard listening, rolled her eyes in speechless exasperation.
It’s just a pregnancy, for goodness’ sake, but they’re acting as if it’s a pot of gold.
When another loss-making daughter is born, let’s see if you can still smile then!
Of course, she didn’t believe the second branch of the family was blessed by an Immortal; it must be that wretched girl Zhaodi who had long noticed Zhao Xiaojuan’s irregular menstrual cycle, coupled with her own desperate wish for a brother, that had led to such dreams!
Jiang Changhai and Su Wanyu, the couple, didn’t react much. Whether the second branch was carrying a girl or a boy made no difference to them.
Boys and girls are the same; a well-raised daughter is no less than a son!
Jiang Mianmian, however, was quite happy for the second branch’s family because she knew the kind of life they led in the Jiang Family.
Because they had no son, her second uncle and aunt lacked confidence, could not stand tall in their own home, and often yielded to avoid conflicts, frequently losing out to the third uncle and aunt.
As much as she didn’t want to admit it, she still had to acknowledge that in this era, in the countryside, a son was exceedingly important to a family.
Moreover, even in the coming new century, the preference for boys over girls still existed.
People like her parents, who felt boys and girls were equal, were incredibly rare in this era.
In the midst of the second branch’s celebrations, two days passed and it was Su Wanyu’s birthday.
The usual custom in the Jiang Family was to celebrate one’s birthday with just two boiled eggs.
Of course, this did not include the daughters of the second branch.
Early that morning, before the Jiang Family had started cooking, Jiang Changhai reminded his mother, “Mom, it’s my wife’s birthday today, don’t forget to boil her an egg.”
Though he now had money, the share that belonged to their main branch must not be diminished!
