295 I Thought You Preferred Boys
Seeing He Xun’s actions, Chen Wei’er’s face turned red. This was something Chen Anhe had told her before.
He Xun remembered it and even did it. He…he probably wanted a child.
Chen Wei’er couldn’t imagine what the baby would be like if she and He Xun had a child.
Their kid would definitely be extremely cute!
“Are you tired?” He Xun reached out and touched his wife’s face. Her forehead was full of sweat.
“Don’t touch me. It’s sticky.” Chen Wei’er slapped her husband’s hand away.
He Xun was also drenched in sweat. He lifted his legs and got off the bed.
“I’ll go and take a shower.”
Chen Wei’er was angry when she heard this. Why could he take a bath while she couldn’t?
“I also want to take a shower!”
He Xun understood and walked back. He touched his wife’s forehead and comforted her.
“Be good. Just wait a little longer.”
“Aiya, so annoying!” Chen Wei’er didn’t know what was wrong with her, but her whole body was filled with ‘resistance’. She really felt irritated.
“I won’t wash then. Shall I stick together with you?” He Xun could understand his wife’s emotions very well.
There was no fairness between a man and a woman when it came to pregnancy and childbirth.
The man did not have to bear the tension and anxiety during the preparation period, including the deterioration of the skin, the swelling of the body, the constant strain, and nausea during pregnancy. In addition, the severe pain during delivery, even the tearing of the body, the depression caused by the sudden change of hormones after delivery, and the fertility damage that could never be recovered…
Men from ordinary families could at most bear some financial pressure brought about by raising children, but in modern society, men were not the only ones making money. Women also had to bear the financial pressure. When it came to pregnancy and childbirth, it was always the woman who paid more, and it was irreversible and impossible to compensate. Therefore, He Xun was willing to accommodate his wife and try his best to make it up to her.
Although it was uncomfortable to be stuck with sweat, if Chen Wei’er could endure it for the sake of their upcoming baby, why couldn’t He Xun?
Chen Wei’er was satisfied. She hugged He Xun’s arm and wanted to talk to him.
He Xun lay beside Chen Wei’er. Both of them were covered in sweat, but neither of them looked down on the other. They began to fantasize about their future.
“Do you want a little boy or a little girl?”
Chen Wei’er’s hair was rubbing against He Xun’s arm.
He Xun closed his eyes and thought for a moment. Previously, he had always dreamt that their baby was a little boy. He was extremely cute and looked almost exactly like him.
But…
“Little girl,” He Xun said.
Chen Wei’er was surprised. I thought you would like boys.
“Actually, as long as it’s your child, it doesn’t matter what gender it is. However, if I had to choose, I would still prefer a daughter.”
If it was a daughter, she would probably look like Chen Wei’er. His daughter would be small, soft, and fragrant. He couldn’t help but want to kiss her once he held her in his arms. He Xun wanted to give all the best things in the world to his daughter.
Chen Wei’er suddenly fell silent. After a while, she said, “I thought that you would definitely want a boy.”
“Why?” This time, it was He Xun’s turn to be surprised. He didn’t even ask Chen Wei’er why she had been silent just now. After all, according to what Chen Wei’er had done, there was no reason to favor men over women.
“The He family is a big family. If there’s no boy, who will inherit the family property?” Chen Wei’er squeezed out a smile. In her previous life, when she was pregnant, Nie Suijing’s mother forced her to eat all kinds of weird food, even though his family was poor, just to have a grandson. It was clearly so unreasonable, but she was still being pressed down on the scalp and forced to eat.
“Girls can also inherit the family property,” He Xun said calmly.
Chen Wei’er was stunned. She had always advocated for women, but in this matter, her initial reaction was to deem the inheritance a male business.
This was because, in this world, there was no way to achieve true equality between men and women. There were many places that still required boys. Although she didn’t agree, Chen Wei’er understood.
But right now, He Xun actually told her personally that girls could also inherit the family fortune?!
Chen Wei’er took He Xun’s hand. “Aren’t you afraid that once our baby girl gets married and has children, she will take her husband’s surname? If the company is passed on to her in the future, won’t your company be changed to someone else’s surname? Can you be at ease with the He Group changing hands?”
“Who said that the child must take the surname of the man?” He Xun raised his eyebrows slightly. “I plan to have two babies. One with the surname He and the other with the surname Chen. In the future, our children can also do the same.”
