Chapter 534: Chapter 534: The Terrifying Aspect of the Underdog (6)_1

"Wow." The loud cry of the newborn baby stirred everyone outside the room with excitement.

"Congratulations, Master, the young lady has given birth, she has had a little girl." Mrs. Qian came out to announce the joyous news. She looked at Wu Dayou somewhat worryingly, scared that the master might not be pleased. After all, men naturally prefer boys.

"Congratulations."

"Congratulations, Dayou, you’re a father now."

People such as the Zhang family came one after another to offer their congratulations.

Having become a father, yes, Wu Dayou snapped out of his petrified state, entering the room cheerfully.

"Master." The people from Cui Da’s household were startled, trying to stop him.

"Let him go in and see. My sister has suffered quite a bit for him." Lin Ziyin spoke. In modern times, when a woman gives birth, a man is always at her side, unlike in ancient times when men avoided being present during childbirth, mistakenly believing it to be an ominous event. It is puzzling why they think the child born still carries their surname?

Firecrackers were let off, proclaiming to the villagers that a new little life had arrived in the world.

"It’s a girl, you aren’t displeased, are you?" Due to her persistent martial arts practice, Zige had a good constitution and now she just felt somewhat tired, but was not asleep.

Under her watchful gaze, Wu Dayou kept smiling, "Having a daughter is nice, girls are affectionate. Our child, no matter the gender, is dear to us."

Hearing this, Zige was finally appeased. Though she liked having a daughter, she was concerned about what Dayou might think. After all, he was the only heir to his family and wanting a son to carry on the family line was expected.

Wu Dayou, being perceptive, noticed her slight sigh of relief and immediately felt a pang of pity for her, "Don’t worry, I really do adore the child. Even if we only have daughters in the future, I will love them all. You have worked hard."

Lines of affection don’t need to be exceptionally sweet, just pleasing to the ear.

Tears finally fell from Zige’s eyes, "You fool."

"I have nothing, but strength. The fact that you didn’t despise me makes me very happy. Having you and the child in my life gives me a feeling of stability. Finally, I’m not alone. Our place finally feels like a home." Wu Dayou wiped away the tears at the corner of Zige’s eyes with his fingers, "The prince has presented us with so many betrothal gifts, I am not competent yet..."

Zige covered his mouth with her hand, "As long as you have our home and the child in your heart, it’s better than anything else. Although Ziyin built this house, but you also contributed. If you bring it up again, be careful our daughter hears and becomes upset."

Wu Dayou nodded vigorously.

"Everyone, please go back and rest, thank you for your hard work." Outside the room, Lin Ziyin had already rewarded the midwives and Xu Danhua generously. Despite both of them being employees of the Lin family, it is customary to give them a tip for their great work.

The midwives and Xu Danhua happily accepted the hefty gift, leaving with their granddaughter.

"Thank you, sisters and aunties. In a few days, we will have a feast, please come and have a few drinks." Lin Ziyin thanked everyone once again.

"Don’t be so formal, this is what an aunt should do." Mrs. Zhang responded with a laugh.

"We are sure to have a few more drinks at the banquet, it’s such a joyous occasion." Mrs. Bai also replied with a smile.

Just as they were engaged in conversation, the hour of the third watch arrived, and everyone gradually dispersed.

"In the future, having one child will be enough." On the way back, Chu Suifeng whispered in her ear.

Without even setting a wedding date, she was already thinking about having children. Lin Ziyin blushed and looked somewhat guilty as she glanced at Lin Changshu ahead.

Chu Suifeng pulled her closer again, "Childbirth is too painful for women."
