Married at First Sight Chapter 4409
Du Yumeng said, “…You’ve been back for days and still haven’t taken a single photo.”
Zhan Yiyang replied sheepishly, “I honestly didn’t even think of taking pictures. I spent all my time fighting with my brothers over who got to hold my nephew.”
“It’s all my eldest brother and sister-in-law’s fault.”
Du Yumeng asked, “How is that their fault?”
“Well, if they’d had three or four babies at once, I’d have had a better chance of holding one—and maybe then I would’ve remembered to take pictures.”
His words made Du Yumeng laugh so hard that she nearly rear-ended the car in front of her. She had to slam on the brakes to avoid an accident.
Once she calmed down, she resumed driving—this time much more carefully. But she kept chatting, saying, “Do you think having multiple babies is easy? It would’ve been so hard on Sister Tong to carry that many.”
“Twins are common, but triplets or more? That’s rare—quadruplets are even more unlikely.”
“If you didn’t take pictures, then so be it. When the baby’s one-month celebration comes around, I’ll go, have a drink, hold the baby, and see for myself.”
“Does the baby look more like Sister Tong or Brother Zhan?”
Zhan Yiyang answered, “At first, he looked just like my brother. But after a few days, he started to resemble my sister-in-law. They say babies change every day—it’s hard to tell just yet.”
“When he grows a bit more, we’ll see who he really takes after. Either way, he looks like both of them, and they’re both good-looking, so I’m sure he’ll turn out to be a handsome, adorable kid.”
“It’s just a shame it wasn’t a girl. Yumeng, let me tell you, my brothers and I secretly bought a bunch of princess dresses, just in case. We thought if it was a girl, we’d be ready with those cute outfits.”
“I really think little girls’ dresses are adorable. Even my eldest brother bought some girl’s clothes.”
This, despite them all knowing that the chance of his sister-in-law having a daughter as her first child was slim.
Still, a fortune-teller—whom they had never met but whose words deeply influenced their grandmother—told her that the Zhan family’s generations-long streak of not having daughters would finally end with the eldest brother and his wife.However, the master— whom none of them had ever met but whose words greatly influenced their
grandmother—had predicted that the Zhan family’s long-standing streak of having no daughters would end with the eldest brother and his wife.
He said they were destined to have both a son and a daughter.
Originally, everyone knew their family was tied to a Buddhist temple, and that women who married into it always gave birth to sons. Over time, they had given up hope of ever welcoming a daughter.
But the master’s words rekindled a spark of hope. What if, by some miracle, their sisterin-law gave birth to a girl?
Even a one percent chance was still a chance—however slim.
Sure enough, when the baby arrived, it was a boy.
If this child wasn’t exceptional among his cousins, why would the entire family treasure him so much?
After all, who could blame the Zhan family for having everything—except daughters?
Just wait. Once the second and third sisters-in-law give birth to sons, those nephews won’t shine as brightly as the eldest one.
Things are precious because they’re rare.
It’s the same with children.
If there are many sons, they lose their novelty and daughters become prized. But if daughters are common, sons suddenly become more valued. In short, it’s always the rare ones who are cherished.
Take the case of Lao Liu’s fiancée—her family has many daughters, so sons are considered especially valuable.
Du Yumeng smiled and said, “Your Zhan family is tied to a famous Buddhist temple. How could Sister Tong possibly give birth to a girl?”
“If she manages to have daughters in her second or third pregnancy, it’ll be because your ancestors worked extra hard in the underworld.”
Zhan Yiyang laughed and replied, “I still want to hold on to my sweet dream.”

I'm seeing Vivian, bill, Julie, maria... Who are these ?...
Need English names, makes the whole story hard to follow....
Please go back to english names. Its been too long that we are reading this novel commitedly. Its like a torture to your loyal readers who can not focus on the story after living with the characters for so long. Please change your interpreter....
Please, please go back to original characters and stop with the repetitive pages. Furthermore the missing chapters from 4389-4412 are still missing. This stopping and starting is getting old. You going to lose all your readers...
Can you hire back the original interpreter or the ones who knows the original name? I think the current interpreter does not want to exert effort on studying the previous names. Please satisfy your readers. We have read the story for a long time. We are patronizing you for this long....
