Reincarnation in the 60s: My Spatial Supermarket Brings Forth Wealth-Chapter 355 - 353: Blossoms Before Fruit
After the doctor went in, heart-wrenching screams followed by the cries of a baby quickly echoed out.
"It’s born, it’s born! Big Sis has given birth!" Lin Xia was the first to jump up and look toward the delivery room door, leaning against it.
If Zhang Yu hadn’t swiftly pulled her away, she would have been dragged into the delivery room and taken a bad fall by the little nurse who came out to share the good news.
The nurse didn’t appreciate it and shot a disapproving glare back at Zhang Yu.
Zhang Yu touched his nose; he was already used to her cold stares and didn’t think much of it anymore.
"It’s born... my granddaughter is finally born, thank heaven, thank heaven!" Bai Xianglan muttered prayers of thanks to the heavens.
"Congratulations! Mother and daughter are fine! A seven-pound-two-ounce baby girl!" The nurse quickly shared the joyful news as everyone waited for her update.
Upon hearing it was a girl, Bai Xianglan first looked toward Mrs. Zhang Sr., afraid that the granddaughter’s great-grandmother might prefer sons over daughters.
"Good, that’s good! A daughter is good too! First flowers, then fruits!" Grandma Zhang clasped her hands together, "How’s my granddaughter-in-law?"
"The mother is fine!" the nurse replied to Mrs. Zhang Sr. and then hurried back in.
Wang Cuihua sighed in relief, her whole body relaxing. As long as the first child was fine, the future would be much smoother.
She didn’t know where this theory came from, but she felt at ease, just waiting for her daughter to come out.
Everyone was filled with joy, except two people: Zhang Haijun and Zhang Yang, who stood on the outskirts with dark expressions.
"It’s just a girl, what’s there to be happy about?" Zhang Yang even voiced his thoughts.
Zhang Yu, bumped out by Lin Xia, coincidentally heard this and warned with irritation.
"You better shut up!"
In the past, his mom had always told him to let things go, and he had done so for over ten years, only for this younger brother to become more and more unreasonable; now he’s become a problematic person.
"Zhang Yu, I’m telling you, sucking up to those old folks is useless! Sucking up to that heartless one is useless too! You won’t get anything in the end, and you’ll lose your closest family!" Zhang Yang retorted irritably.
"Zhang Yang, you’d better think before you speak! Those two old folks you refer to are our actual grandparents, and Zhang Yuan is our actual big brother! We share the same blood! And about mom and big sister, I also want to bring them out, but can you guarantee that they won’t continue making trouble if they do?" Zhang Yu lowered his voice and tried to reason with his immature brother.
In his heart, having big sister stay there with someone to care for her wasn’t necessarily bad. He knew that big sister’s spirit was indeed unstable, and Big Brother didn’t wish for her condition.
As for his mom, he felt quite helpless; hearing everything from grandparents, he genuinely didn’t know how to act, caught between kin and morality, it was hard for him.
"Are you even human? That’s your own mother, your own big sister, how could you say something like that? Zhang Yu, how could you become so cold-blooded?" Zhang Haijun didn’t let his younger son speak before questioning.
Zhang Yang also glared at him inquisitively, while in front was Lin Xia, and he knew she heard everything and just didn’t want to intervene, which surely pushed the distance between them even further.
Indeed, Lin Xia had heard what those conniving father and son said, but it wasn’t suitable to deal with such affairs today; she was waiting for her eldest niece to come out and for big sister to come out safely, handling these things was unnecessary.
But, the more she listened, the more intense the atmosphere became. She only heard Zhang Yu didn’t have time to refute before Zhang Haijun spoke again.
"Xiao Yu! You’re closer to your big brother, see if you can ask him to release your mom and big sister, okay?" Zhang Haijun softened his tone, speaking as if coaxing a child.
"I can’t do anything! Go ask someone else!" Zhang Yu completely changed his view of this father, previously in his ignorance, he thought his parents were right, always feeling his grandparents owed them, but knowing the truth now, even as a biological son, he found it hard to accept.
"You... Xiao Yu, don’t forget you’re my son! Won’t you even listen to your father?" Zhang Haijun’s voice unconsciously raised a bit, mainly blaming, "You’ve seen it, now your sister-in-law has a girl, Xiao Ting may have pushed, but wasn’t the child born safely? Why does it never end? Besides, even if it was a miscarriage, isn’t it just a girl? The thought isn’t from the Zhang Family!"
Zhang Yu’s eyes widened; he couldn’t fathom his father saying something like this.
When he pampered his big sister to no end, why hadn’t he said she was just a girl then.
Now that big brother had a daughter, is it okay to be indifferent if she’s pushed over? What’s wrong with having a girl?
As Zhang Yu thought of this, Lin Xia in front could no longer contain herself and turned around, "Hey, you jerk uncle! So your daughter is your daughter, the pearl of the Zhang Family, and my eldest niece isn’t? What kind of light talk is that, about just a girl? It’s two lives; my big sister almost miscarried! If I remember right, your daughter even had a hysterectomy due to abortions! Is almost miscarrying not serious? Are you saying if a girl’s lost, it doesn’t matter? How are you so audacious? Why didn’t you choose to lose all your kids back then?"
Lin Xia’s temper flared uncontrollably, and her words made everyone waiting in front turn their heads.
Zhang Yu didn’t dare step forward to stop her and stood dumbfounded; he never expected this girl to erupt so frighteningly.
Lin Shan covered his face but still stepped behind his third sister; he knew his brother-in-law’s father was a bit unreasonable and also knew his brother-in-law was decisive, getting his mother and stepmother into an asylum, his dad wasn’t unfamiliar to seeking help, saying bothersome things in today’s situation wasn’t fitting.
Lin Chuan, being direct, stood right in front of his third sister with a fierce look, warning Zhang Haijun.
Zhang Haijun was scolding his son when suddenly being berated by a young girl, who astonishingly was his daughter-in-law’s sister; he was momentarily stunned and didn’t know how to react.
Before he could react, the two boys were standing protectively in front of her, as if he would hit someone.
What’s all this? How could such people exist? They dared interrupt when he was talking to his own son.
Just as he opened his mouth, Mr. Zhang Sr. interrupted, "Zhang Haijun! If you continue being so obstinate and make trouble, don’t blame me for severing our relationship!" He said, walking over without waiting for the granddaughter, "I told you long ago! That woman is utterly unacceptable! How much havoc has she wreaked on the Zhang Family? Can you count?"
After Mr. Zhang Sr. finished scolding, Mrs. Zhang Sr. was supported by Wang Cuihua, who came over and started hitting her son, still mumbling. Others didn’t quite catch her words, but Zhang Haijun felt a jolt in his heart, knowing that he couldn’t linger here any longer today. If his old mother revealed the dirty secret, getting the child’s mother out would be pointless.
