Zachary said, “I hope you can get Nana’s reward of five hundred million.”
Serenity pondered the question and said after a while, “Your family hasn’t had a daughter for
generations. Perhaps it just runs in the family. Your family might just be fated to have sons only.”
Zachary fell silent for a while before he said, “It’s possible. Our ancestor had a daughter but failed to
raise her. Ever since that child passed, no one in the family has given birth to a girl. I remember my
little aunt watched her diet closely before she gave birth to Rowan. She ate a lot of acidic food, saying
that it’ll promote the conception of a daughter.
“Her pregnancy with Rowan was also different from her first two pregnancies. Everyone thought she
would give birth to a daughter. When the fetus took shape, we sought advice from an acquaintance.
When that person said that it was a girl, everyone went crazy with joy.”
Zachary recounted what happened that year. “I was a teenager at that time, so I had a particularly deep
impression of when my aunt was pregnant with Rowan. After hearing that she was going to give birth to
a girl, I was also looking forward to her arrival.
“I even secretly prepared a lot of toys for her. The adults in our family bought a lot of pink clothes and
shoes, and I also secretly bought her a pink dress. Callum and Kevin were about my age, so they did
the same too.
“It happened to be a Saturday the day my aunt gave birth to Rowan. Everyone in the family -old and
young, as well as our collateral relatives–was there. The hospital corridors were filled with our people.
“Everyone was overjoyed and happier than when Christmas was here. Nana smiled so brightly that her
cheeks were sore, thinking that she was finally going to hold a granddaughter. In the end, the nurse
came out with a big fat kid in her arms. Nana immediately grabbed the nurse’s collar and questioned if
she carried the wrong baby.
“She even said that my aunt was pregnant with a daughter, so why was a plump boy carried out
instead? Everyone suspected that the nurse took the wrong baby. The nurse was between laughter
and tears. She repeatedly explained that my aunt was the only person in the delivery room and that
she gave birth to a boy.”
Serenity wanted to laugh when she heard the story. She could imagine what happened at that time.
Zachary continued, “Everyone could only accept the reality. The nurse also muttered that every other
family would be thrilled if it was a son. Our family was the only one who asked for a daughter after
knowing that it was a son, as if the hospital owed us a little girl.
“The hundred–over people dispersed after knowing that our family gained a ninth son. The firecrackers
that were meant to be lit up at home weren’t lit up in the end. Since everyone
ught it was going to be a daughter, girls‘ clothes were prepared. As such, Rowan wore pink clothes
during the days he was in the hospital.
“Rowan only changed into his brother’s hand–me–downs after being discharged from the hospital, and
my uncle dawdled for half a month before buying new clothes for him.
People are saying that our family is like a temple. Nobody in the family can give birth to a daughter, and
even if we do, we can’t keep them alive.”
Serenity said, “Perhaps it’s bad luck that was passed down in your family, causing your descendants to
be born sons and making it difficult for daughters to be raised.”
“It was already like this during my grandfather’s generation, so it might’ve started from my great–
grandfather’s generation. We didn’t think about this problem and didn’t ask a fortune- teller for help.
These days, there are very few fortune–tellers with real skills. Many of them only scratched the surface
but go around conning for some living expenses.”
“There are skillful ones, but there are very few of them. It’s difficult to find out where they’ve retired to.”
Serenity was interested in the fortune–telling knowledge left by her ancestors. Her bookstore has many
books on fortune–telling, but unfortunately, she did not have the talent
to understand them.
Moreover, her customers were middle–school students. Young people did not believe in fortune–telling,
so who would read those books? They were placed in the corner of her shelves to collect dust, waiting
for a destined person to pick them up and sweep the dust away so that they could serve their purpose.
“Let’s bring this up to Nana someday. She’s old and knowledgeable, so she might’ve heard some
legends from experts. I’d like to talk to a fortune–teller. I want to have a daughter.
Zachary was afraid that he would end up like his family members from his great- grandfather’s
generation. Giving birth to a daughter but failing to keep her alive would be heartbreaking.
Although medical skills were limited in the past and much more advanced now, sometimes, one’s life
could not be bought with money.
