Can't Take My Eyes Off You novel Chapter 1089

At that point, everyone understood what the final twist was. Lu Xingzhi said, "In the end, she must have given birth to a daughter."

Lu Xiaoxiao did not shake her head or nod. She continued to speak slowly. "Perhaps it was because she was stressed out. The woman went into labor, but it was a difficult one. When the old woman saw it, she immediately called for someone to take her daughter-in-law to the county hospital. When she paid the hospital fees, she did not even blink. She was afraid that the doctor would not treat her daughter-in-law well, so she even gave the chief surgeon a red packet. She waited outside the delivery room for as long as her daughter-in-law stayed there."

Everyone waited quietly for the story to continue; only then did Lu Xiaoxiao's voice begin to change. "Brother is right; the foolish wife gave birth to a daughter."

The three people's expressions suddenly stiffened. Even though they had guessed it, they still broke out in a sweat when they heard it.

"She was hoping for a grandson, but in the end, she had a granddaughter. That old woman must have been mad with anger." Lu Yuqing sighed. "For someone like her, she might as well be as cold and indifferent as before the woman was pregnant. The greater the hope, the more terrible the disappointment."

"Yes, Sister is right."

Lu Xiaoxiao imitated Lu Yuqing's tone and sighed. "The doctor carried the child out of the delivery room and handed her to the old woman. When the old woman heard that it was a daughter, she grabbed the doctor's arm and shouted that the doctor had swapped her grandson. The doctor had carried her grandson away and replaced him with a girl to fool her. She was so mad that she wanted the doctor to take her to her grandson. Even the neighbors could not stop her. My friend's mother said that the old woman had scratched them and left several bloody marks when they tried to pull her away."

"It was only her first child, so what if she had a girl? They could have continued to try for another baby if she wanted a grandson so badly. She believed the fortune-teller, right? And the fortune-teller said that her daughter-in-law would have a son in her life. Perhaps the second or third baby would be a son." Jiang Yao curled her lips and replied, "Xingzhi even insisted that I give birth to a daughter."

"Not all families are as open-minded as ours."
