Chapter 411 The Inheritance
Is having a son really that important? !
Luo Wanyi felt speechless, but she also understood in her heart that the preference for boys over girls was very serious in the past and present. This phenomenon would also be found in many places decades later.
Anyway, no matter what, you must have a son, because the family has a throne and a country to inherit, and the family name must be continued, and the son is the one who inherits it.
The contrast between many families with sons and daughters is very obvious, especially those who have daughters first. The daughters have to give way to the younger brothers behind them. The daughters who used to be pleasing to the eye are now not so pleasing to the eye, and they are not as good as the younger brothers in everything they do.
Luo Wanyi had seen and heard these things with her own eyes. She was a relative of her own family.
However, more mothers have seriously realized that it is actually better to have daughters, because after they become mothers, they will have a deeper understanding of their parents' hard work, so their daughters will feel more sorry for their parents when they grow up.
The caring cotton-padded jacket is really not a lie.
Including many mothers, female friends around them, and elders in the family, they all find that when something really happens, the only person they can rely on is their daughter.
For example, taking care of you when you are sick, or sharing housework, or paying alimony...
On the contrary, the son who inherited the family property and was responsible for providing for the elderly was far less filial to his parents than the daughter.
Therefore, in a few decades, families will basically have sons and daughters.
Moreover, the family that gave birth to two sons no longer makes others envious. Instead, they feel that raising a son is a heavy burden, and they have already observed which of the sons will be more filial to them in the future.
Even if Zhou Huayun's current situation is not one of addiction to giving birth to a son, it is still a matter of fighting for words. One is not guaranteed, but two are safer.
After Song Pinming learned that his wife was pregnant again, his heart was full of expectations.
There are only two children in the family now. Although there are also children from his younger brother's family, he doesn't want to have too many. Anyway, they can afford to raise them.
As for the two daughters, after Song Pinming learned that Zhou Huayun was pregnant with a son, he unknowingly came up with the idea that it would be better to give the two daughters to their uncle.
Anyway, there are too few sons and too many daughters.The brother-in-law can raise so many children who are not his own, so raising two more is nothing. When he grows up, he can get married without spending any money.
Not only did Song Pinming have such thoughts, but Zhou Huayun herself also had such thoughts.
It's just that she is just pregnant now and her family conditions are not bad, so she hasn't reached that point yet.
Now, the most important thing is his brother-in-law's eldest son and mother-in-law. If these two people continue to be raised by their family, Zhou Huayun will not be happy.
It is right for an eldest son to support his mother, but what about a son who is raising a younger brother? !
Song Pinming didn't owe his brother anything, and the couple couldn't afford to support his two sons. Why did he push him to them? !
Zhou Huayun mentioned it to her man again that raising a son for someone else could not continue like this.
Now, the daughter lives in one room with her mother-in-law, and the son sleeps in the same room with the couple. The son is now three years old, and in two years he will have to sleep in his own room.
When the time comes, where will they have a room for their son to live alone? !The eldest son doesn’t have a place to sleep, but what about the younger son? !Where will the two sons sleep? !You can't just keep sleeping in the same bed with the couple, right? !
Song Pinming also knew in his heart that it would be impossible for his eldest nephew to continue living in this home. How could a nephew be as important as his son? !He's not stupid.
However, he couldn't say this, and he felt that more than half of the good things were done, and there was not much time left.
"Let me think about how to arrange Xiao Lei. It will definitely be better for him to go to school here than back to his hometown. Now he is in fifth grade and will go to junior high school next year. After entering junior high school, he can live on campus."
"My son is only three years old now. Are you willing and willing to let him sleep in a room by himself?! At least after he is five years old, after the baby in your belly is born, first make the bed in our room bigger. It’s enough to sleep our family of four.”
"Xiaoyun, we have raised Xiaolei here for four or five years. When he finishes high school, we will no longer take care of him, and our kindness will be done. By then, whether it is his parents, my brother and Outsiders, no one will say anything bad about us, and no one can accuse us of neglecting our brothers and being unfilial to our parents."
"Daughter-in-law, do you think it's okay?! I'll take care of you for another four years."
Song Pinming made a decision in his heart and had some other ideas. He first persuaded his wife to stop, and then came one by one.
Song Pinming had always been on her and her son's side in the past few years, and his performance was pretty good. Zhou Huayun agreed with satisfaction and was willing to believe him.
No, after Song Pinming convinced his wife, he went to his mother and told her his thoughts and decisions.
When Mrs. Song heard that she would only be able to give her 15 yuan a month as pension money, she immediately became unhappy and she must have been unwilling to do so.
However, the eldest son also told her that there was going to be another child in the family soon, and the expenses would be even greater.
Now in this family, the eldest son and daughter-in-law have jobs and have several children.
If Zhou Huayun's brother hadn't taken his two granddaughters to support them, the family's burden would have been even heavier, and they would never have had such an easy and easy life.
Raising children for free? !
Two more mouths, more fabric, and more space.
Old Mrs. Song was told by her eldest son that she couldn't help imagining the scene of a large family. She knew that if she made trouble, she would be separated from her eldest son, and neither would be well off.
Moreover, she lives with her eldest son and basically doesn't have to work much. She is like an old feudal lord in her family. She has good food, housing and money. If she dares to do this, she will definitely not have a good life in the future.
Therefore, Mrs. Song is very aware of current affairs. 15 yuan is 15 yuan. She is very satisfied to be able to support her eldest grandson until he graduates from high school.
