Chapter 1906: To See If It’s Male or Female

Li Sicheng took one glance at Li Beixing and said, “You’re so worked up. Even your wife, who’s inside giving birth, is worried about you.”

Li Beixing became infuriated when Li Sicheng said this. He said through gritted teeth, “It’s easier said than done. Of course you’re not anxious. It’s not your wife. We’ll see how much of a weakling you are when your wife gives birth!”

Li Sicheng shrugged his shoulders and said, “It’s not as if my wife hasn’t given birth before. She even gave birth to a pair of twins. She’s only giving birth to one child this time, so this birth will definitely be easier.”

There was even a look of glee on his face as he spoke! Li Beixing felt angry when he saw how intoxicated with success Li Sicheng was. He refused to look at him and sat down on the stool that Liu Sao had moved over near the entrance to the room.

Worried, Qin Shuhua continued standing there. She stared at Li Beixing as if she were afraid he would slip inside the minute she let her guard down.

Li Sicheng sat down on the sofa and took a sideways glance at Su Qianci’s stomach. It wasn’t big. In fact, her stomach wasn’t even comparable to how big it was when she was seven months pregnant with Dasu and Ersu.

“So... it probably... won’t be as painful?” he thought.

Li Sicheng was actually uncertain what it would be like. He was merely being stubborn when he bickered with Li Beixing. This would be the first time he would officially see the birth of his child.

Li Sicheng had owed it to Ersu and Dasu to be there those four years they had grown up while he was gone. “And this child... he needs to grow up with a father,” he thought.

When Li Jinnan saw the extremely focused expression on Li Sicheng’s face, he called out, “Second Brother.”

Li Sicheng looked up. “Yeah?”

“Are you nervous?”

Li Sicheng’s lips pursed into a taut line as he reflected and then said, “No.”

“Then why do I sense that you feel very nervous?” Li Jinnan wore a teasing look on his face. “What are you afraid of? It’s not Second Sister-in-law’s first time giving birth.”

Li Sicheng took one look at Li Jinnan from the corner of his eye and decided to ignore him.

Su Qianci also seemed to sense Li Sicheng’s anxiety, because she reached out her hand and placed it on the back of his. “Don’t worry,” she comforted him. “Giving birth to a child isn’t actually that painful.”

Actually, Su Qianci had experienced some difficulty when she gave birth to Dasu and Ersu. When she couldn’t give birth naturally, she was directly placed on anesthesia and underwent cesarean delivery. It was incredibly painful, but Su Qianci could no longer remember what it had felt like.

“F*ck!” Li Beixing suddenly yelled out. “What dumb rule is it that we can’t go to the hospital during the Lunar New Year? What’s the point of a hospital if we can’t visit it when we’re giving birth?”

Qin Shuhua and Liu Sao cracked up from his joke. “You young people just can’t maintain your composure, can you?” Liu Sao laughed. “This kind of environment is considered good for the first young mistress right now, and the doctors have already prepared the equipment. It was truly horrible giving birth in the past. We couldn’t go to the hospital no matter what time of year it was, and the equipment wasn’t as advanced. Can you imagine how much suffering we went through?”

“Exactly,” Qin Shuhua agreed. “Back then, we hired a midwife to stay in the house when your mother gave birth.” Qin Shuhua sounded slightly reproachful but also expectant, saying, “I wonder if Manyu will give birth to a boy or a girl. It’ll be great if it’s a girl.”

“Fat hope of that.” Old Mr. Li walked out from the room slowly, supporting himself on his walking stick. “You know that Old Li’s family has always had trouble giving birth to girls.”

This had always been the case. Li Weiya was the only girl in Li Sicheng’s generation. The family finally had another girl when Su Qianci’s belly did the family proud and gave birth to a boy and a girl.

The baby in Qiu Manyu’s stomach was most likely a boy.

“Times have changed. In the past, we could visit the hospital and find out the gender of the child, but that’s not the case now. Now, we can only look forward to the birth of the child to see if it’s male or female.”
