Chapter 9: Stealing Beams and Changing Pillars 1
Zhang Hui is the stepmother of Yuan Zhiyuan's three brothers, and they have always called Aunt Zhang, as a wife, she naturally sings with her wife.
In fact, Yuan Zhiyuan's brothers are not children anymore, it is normal for their father to marry after being widowed, and they only gave birth to a daughter, there is not much crisis for their three brothers, but when Zhang Hui entered the door, it was quite disgraceful, and they were difficult to forgive.
The Lin family and the Yuan family are officials together, Lin Xiaoxue and Yuan Zhiyuan grew up together since childhood, so they naturally know this past.
Therefore, Lin Xiaoxue has always been indifferent to her.
Zhang Hui was indifferent, smiling every time, making people feel like a spring breeze.
The more this is the case, the more jealous the Yuan Zhiyuan brothers and Lin Xiaoxue are, and they also maintain the harmonious atmosphere on the surface.
"Xiao Ran, Xiaoxue is waiting to give birth at home now, it's not easy to go out, you often come to accompany her, and you and Uncle Yuan are very grateful."
Zhang Hui held his mother's shelf, smiling kindly, although he was over forty years old, he was still well maintained, and he looked only in his early thirties, and then replied to Lin Xiaoxue's words, "Your father went to Lao Li's house, come back later." ”
Xu Ran said: "Aunt Zhang, don't worry, Xiaoxue is my best friend, of course I have to accompany her often to relieve her boredom." ”
Lin Xiaoxue snorted, smiled at the same time as Xu Ran, and spoke very politely.
and Zhang Hui, they have almost no common language, and they don't usually speak much.
The Lin family and the Yuan family know each other well, and so is the Xu family.
Who knows, today's Zhang Hui is extremely enthusiastic, handing the big bags and small bags he brought to Lin Xiaoxue, and telling her one by one, looking at this posture, it feels like her own mother, and that's it.
"Xiaoxue, I bought two sets of clothes and a small cloak for the baby, washed and dried, and put on the baby after birth."
Before Lin Xiaoxue could speak, Xu Ran leaned over to look first.
Small clothes, green woolen cotton cloak, attached to a hat, the cloak is printed with bright red flowers.
It's not the custom-made clothes they wear, but it's exquisite, it's beautiful, it's just a little weird.
"Aunt Zhang, the clothes you bought are very beautiful, and you really have a vision, why are they all worn by girls? This cloak is also green, I heard my grandmother say, red men and green women, boys generally use red cloaks, girls only use green cloaks. ”
Although the State has always emphasized equality between men and women, signs of preference for sons over women persist.
Many people are still proud of having a boy and ashamed of having a girl.
Xu Ran has a high level of knowledge, of course he doesn't have this kind of backward mind, but he can't bear to be someone else! Especially the older generation, even if they prepare clothes, most of them prepare boys' clothes, unlike Zhang Hui, who only buys girls' clothes.
Xu Ran glanced at Zhang Hui with a vague look, Xiaoxue, the stepmother-in-law, seemed to not want Xiaoxue to give birth to a boy!
No wonder her mother told her not to get too close to Zhang Hui.
Zhang Hui said with a smile: "I saw these clothes today, I bought them first, and I will go shopping tomorrow, and then buy clothes and cloaks for boys, we don't know whether the baby is a man or a woman, so both men and women have to prepare a copy." ”
Xu Ran didn't have anything to say, and he still had some doubts in his heart.
Lin Xiaoxue smiled slightly, "Thank you, Aunt Zhang." However, the clothes for the baby, regardless of men and women, we are ready, and there is no need for Aunt Zhang to continue to break the bank, children grow up fast and can't wear so many clothes. ”
