Chapter 677: Chapter 677: The Gender of the Child
Mengmeng thought about it and then quickly nodded, blinking her eyes, “Want to see, want to see!”
“Ahem! That’s illegal!” Next to her, Gu’s father couldn’t help but cough lightly to remind her.
It had long been established that hospitals were prohibited from disclosing the sex of the fetus.
Gu’s mother immediately shot Gu’s father a glare, “You talk less, no one thinks you’re mute.”
Gu’s father quickly added another sentence, “But we’re a family, and we wouldn’t abandon the baby whether it’s a boy or a girl, so taking a look shouldn’t be a problem.”
His face sure turned quick.
Finding out the gender was a quick affair, and Gu’s mother managed to determine the sexes of the two babies at once.
“Oh my… why are they both boys?”
Gu’s mother suddenly pursed her lips, feeling a touch of disappointment.
She hadn’t given birth to a daughter in her lifetime, and when she was young, she’d been exceptionally envious of those who could have daughters. Now seeing that Mengmeng was also having sons, a profound sadness suddenly welled up inside her.
Would their Gu family never have a girl?
Gu’s father, on the other hand, was all smiles, “Boys are good, boys are good.”
“What kind of era is this, you actually still have the mindset of preferring boys over girls!” Gu’s mother immediately rewarded him with a slap.
Gu’s father instantly held his face pitifully, weakly saying, “I only think that boys don’t have to endure the pain of childbirth, nor the monthly menstrual pain, that’s why I said they’re good.”
“That’s more like it!” Only then was Gu’s mother satisfied.
Mengmeng, with her head lowered, lifted her fair little hand to touch her round belly, showing a gentle smile, “Actually, whether it’s a boy or a girl, I like them.”
Because these are her children with the man she loves.
What difference did it make if they were boys or girls?
It was just that inside, she still felt a tiny bit of disappointment for not having a daughter this time around.
After returning from the hospital, because everyone had heard about Zhao Xue’s incident, the servants of the house felt an immense sense of nervousness, as if they were worried they might displease Luo Mengmeng and get pranked at the hospital and then be dismissed.
Luo Mengmeng, innocent as she was, noticed everyone’s jitteriness, and after a smile, she said, “You don’t need to be so afraid. Zhao Xue was fired because her behavior crossed my line. As for you all, as long as you do your jobs well, your year-end bonuses will double.”
Everyone immediately widened their eyes.
To be able to work here, the salary was already higher than the average white-collar worker, with social security and housing fund included. Now, with a doubled year-end bonus, everyone was filled with motivation.
Luo Mengmeng helplessly shrugged her shoulders.
These days, only money could make people passionate about their work.
As she said this, Gu Zhihan came back just in time. He kissed her forehead and whispered in her ear, “My Mengmeng is getting better and better at managing the household.”
“No choice, one must strategize according to their position,” Luo Meng spread her hands out.
After saying that, Mengmeng seemed to remember something and quickly added, “Right, I went for a pregnancy checkup today and also found out the sex of the babies. Do you want to know?”
Mengmeng blinked her clear and distinct eyes at him.
“Of course, I do,” Gu Zhihan immediately asked excitedly, “Is there a girl?”
His hands were resting on her shoulders at the moment, and his handsome face was filled with anticipation as he looked at her.
Seeing this, the words Mengmeng was about to say suddenly stuck in her throat.
He seemed to really want a daughter…
Her belly was full of boys.
