Chapter 467

The birth of the second baby was even smoother than the first one. He Zhiran had experience, and she was not as exhausted.

As soon as Zhao Midwife said to push, she cooperated with all her might.

This time, after pushing hard, the second baby fell to the ground crying.

Zhao Midwife excitedly said, "Congratulations, congratulations! The second child is a girl. Congratulations to you young couple on having both a son and a daughter!"

In the Great Shun Dynasty, the words dragon and phoenix were only allowed for the royal family. Ordinary people did not dare mention these two words, otherwise it would bring disaster.

He Zhiran lay quietly there to rest and heard the midwife say she had given birth to another girl. She was happy in her heart.

She had the mindset of modern people and did not have any special ideas about having a son or daughter.

In her heart, as long as the children were healthy, it did not matter whether they were male or female.

That was why when she had prenatal checkups at the clinic, she never intentionally looked at the gender of the child.

Even so, hearing that she had given birth to a pair of dragon and phoenix twins, she still felt pleasantly surprised.

Giving birth to two babies at once was already a blessing from heaven, and to have both a son and daughter was something that would make anyone happy.

However, after giving birth to the second child, she had used up all her energy. At this moment, she did not even have the strength to open her eyes to look at her daughter.

In her groggy state, she could feel Zhao Midwife helping her clean up, and Mo Jiuye was also at her side, using a handkerchief to wipe her face. She even seemed to feel a drop of warm tears landing on her cheek.

Mo Jiuye finally could not hold back his tears.

He witnessed the whole birthing process of his wife and understood the hardship and pain better than anyone.

He felt heartache for his wife having to endure so much pain alone to bear children for him.

Mo Jiuye had silently made a vow that in order not to let his wife get pregnant again, he would rather become a monk for life...

In fact, Mo Jiuye really was ignorant in this area.

He had not considered that the sisters-in-law at home were secretly given medicine by the Empress so they could not conceive, and the doctors at the clinic could also prescribe herbal soups for contraception. If they did not want to have children, it was not difficult.

In short, as long as his wife did not suffer again, he did not care about anything else.

Just now, Zhao Midwife also saw that Mo Jiuye, the father, did not know how to hold the baby at all. After wrapping up the second baby, she placed her beside He Zhiran.

Because Zhao Midwife had deep-rooted ideas and was naturally biased against girls herself, when she saw that He Zhiran had given birth to a girl, she thought the Mo family would not care much either. So she was not as excited as when the first baby was born.

In ancient times, this was indeed the case. When she helped other families deliver babies, the labor fees she received for delivering a boy and a girl were different.

For families that had a boy, even if they were not wealthy, they would try their best to give more.

Those who had a girl were different. Even if they had money, some were still unwilling to give more and wanted to give less instead.

Who knew, when the people waiting outside heard that He Zhiran had given birth to a girl, they suddenly swarmed in together.

Old Lady Mo was unusually unrestrained compared to her usual dignified manner.

"Where is my cute granddaughter? The cute granddaughter Rongrong gave me, where is she?" she cried.

As she spoke, she no longer cared for the sleeping chubby grandson in her arms and directly handed him to Madam He.

Although the other Mo women did not speak, their eager expressions showed how much they wanted to see their little niece.

The actions of the Mo women stunned Zhao Midwife.

What were they trying to do?

It looked as if they were trying to snatch the baby!

She instinctively glanced at the sleeping baby beside He Zhiran. After a brief pause, she woodenly picked up the child.

She brought the baby to Old Lady Mo and said, "Here is your granddaughter, fair and delicate, as beautiful as her mother. Congratulations on the addition of two grandchildren."

Old Lady Mo took the child from Zhao Midwife\'s arms and sat down at He Zhiran\'s bedside. She said softly,

"Rongrong is our Mo family\'s lucky star. Not only has she brought our family good fortune, she has good fortune herself. After suffering once, she immediately had both a son and daughter. This is something others don\'t even dare dream about."

The second sister-in-law also came up and chimed in, "Mother is right. I realized early on that Ninth Sister has extraordinary good fortune."

As she spoke, she wanted to lean over to take a look at her little niece. But before she could get close, she was pulled back by the other sisters-in-law behind her.

"Second Sister-in-law, the little niece belongs to all of us. We should look at her together. Don\'t block Ninth Sister from our view. We want to see Ninth Sister too!"

"That\'s right, you\'ve blocked our view of Ninth Sister!"

"..."

Although the women did not speak loudly, Old Lady Mo was still afraid they would disturb He Zhiran\'s rest.

She quickly picked up the second baby and stood up, "All of you, go outside. Don\'t make noise here and disturb Ninth Sister\'s rest. If you want to see the second baby, go outside."

She realized that her daughters-in-law, like her, also doted on girls. If she did not let them see the baby immediately, they would keep causing a fuss.

Madam He held the older baby in her arms and watched as the group surrounded the second baby and left. Then she looked down at the older baby in her arms. How could he not be as precious anymore?

No, the older baby was also precious. It was just that her mother-in-law had given birth to so many sons and only one daughter, Mo Hanyue. Their family\'s girls were certainly treasured.

Thinking that the cute newborn grandson in her arms now faced possible neglect, Madam He inevitably felt worried for the child.

She held the older baby tighter and whispered, "Our older baby is the best. Grandma loves you."

The older baby still did not know that on the very first day after being born, his dear grandma had already imagined him as an neglected child...

Mo Jiuye also felt happy about having both a son and daughter.

However, seeing his wife\'s haggard appearance now, he had no mind to look at the twin babies.

He just silently accompanied her, unable to share her pain but at least able to feel more at ease.

After Zhao Midwife swiftly cleaned up He Zhiran, she left the room with a grin after giving Mo Jiuye some reminders.

This was the first time in her life she had successfully delivered twins and both were safe.

Just this point alone was enough for her to boast about for miles, making those midwives who competed with her jobs jealous to death.

Although it was warm outside, they were after all newborns.

Old Lady Mo had already taken the second baby into another room. The women were surrounding her to look at the baby.

"Mother, my little niece is so beautiful. Her eyebrows and eyes look exactly the same as Ninth Sister."

"My little niece will definitely grow up to be a beauty."

"Mother, can I hold my little niece too?"

"Mother, do you think my little niece is laughing?"

"..."
