When I arrived at the hospital, I queued up to register. The doctor asked briefly and then took a urine test.
Finally, I told my eldest sister, "Congratulations, you are pregnant."
"Impossible!" The eldest sister stared and questioned loudly.
"Comrade, your pregnancy symptoms are very obvious. To confirm, I asked you to do a urine test. It can be confirmed that you are pregnant." The doctor's attitude was not bad and he explained patiently.
"But, doctor, I...I had a sterilization!" The eldest sister still didn't believe it.
In fact, the eldest sister is already a mother of two children, so she is naturally aware of the symptoms of pregnancy. It is because she had a sterilization in her hometown, so she did not think about it at all.
"Comrade, clinically speaking, sterilization is the most effective contraceptive method for pregnancy, but it does not mean that you cannot get pregnant, but the chance of pregnancy is very low." The doctor patiently explained to the eldest sister.
"This...that..." The eldest sister's face was full of confusion, and she was overwhelmed by the sudden pregnancy.
"Eldest sister, let's go back first and tell the elder brother-in-law about this matter. You can discuss it before we talk." Zhang Junping pulled the eldest sister.
"If you want this child, I suggest you go to the gynecology department and do an ultrasound to check to see if it is a normal intrauterine pregnancy." The doctor suggested again.
"Thank you, doctor." Zhang Junping thanked him and took his eldest sister out of the hospital.
"Pingzi, what should I do?"
"What should I do? Do you want it or not? If you want it, give birth to it. If you don't want it, get it immediately. However, you have to discuss it with your eldest brother-in-law and don't get into any conflicts over this matter."
"I know, but...but! I am a supernatural being..."
"Sister, isn't it a fine to have a baby? How big a deal is it?" Zhang Junping said with a relaxed smile.
"You say lightly? Do you know how strict family planning is now?
How good are the noses of those old ladies in the neighborhood committee?" The eldest sister glared at Zhang Junping angrily.
Zhang Junping touched his nose. Of course he knew how strict family planning was.
In his last life, his parents had been nagging him a lot. Just to give birth to him, the family's cows and pigs were taken away, the food was also taken away, and the house was almost torn down.
However, it is now 1983 and should be a little better. The most severe period was from the late 1980s to the 1990s.
"Sister, I'll find a way to transfer your household registration here..."
"Is this a matter of changing household registration?"
"I know, isn't it just a fine? We'll pay! We'll pay as much as we have to! What's there?"
"Let's talk about it later!" the eldest sister said worriedly.
In fact, Zhang Junping was more worried than his eldest sister. Her eldest sister's pregnancy disrupted all his plans.
He originally planned to hand over the management of the furniture factory to his eldest sister after the factory in Jinsong was completed.
As a result, it's fine now.
If you have a child, you won't be able to take care of it for at least two years.
Two years later, the furniture factory has basically developed, and it will be difficult for the eldest sister to get involved.
"Sister, don't go to the paint shop anymore, the smell there is too strong," Zhang Junping reminded.
"knew!"
Back at the furniture factory, Zhang Junping told his eldest brother-in-law that his eldest sister was pregnant.
"..." The eldest brother-in-law was shocked at first, and then started to giggle.
"It's all your fault!" The eldest sister pinched the eldest brother-in-law who was giggling.
Zhang Junping smiled silently, turned and left.
Make room for the eldest sister and brother-in-law, and let them decide whether to take it or leave it.
As a brother-in-law, it was not easy for him to intervene in such matters. If he did not do so, he would be blamed for the rest of his life.
"Uncle, uncle, is mother's illness cured?"
"Does Mom need to take very bitter medicine to get well?"
"Uncle, have you bought some sweets for your mother? I want the white rabbit ones, so you won't feel bitter after eating them."
Nini pulled Zhang Junping's clothes and talked to Zhang Junping like a little adult.
"Your mother is not healed yet! You have to be good and take good care of your sister." Zhang Junping smiled and rubbed Nini's hair.
"Nini is good, Nini will help her sister put on clothes and shoes..." Nini clapped her fingers and talked about the tasks she could do.
"Nini is so good!"
"Niuniu is good too, Niuniu can eat by herself." Seeing Zhang Junping praising his sister but not himself, Niu Niu became jealous and pulled Zhang Junping's clothes and shouted.
"Niuniu is also a good boy, great! She can even eat by herself.
Let's go, uncle will take you to play." Zhang Junping smiled and scratched Niu Niu's nose, then picked up his two nieces and went to his studio to play.
Zhang Junping played with his two nieces until get off work in the evening, when the eldest sister prepared a meal and came over to call for help.
"Hingzi, the food is ready. You can eat it here."
"No, I'd better go back to eat. Huang Xue is sitting with my meal."
"Pingzi, can you really transfer your sister's household registration here?" The eldest brother-in-law hesitated and asked.
"Well, we discussed this issue before when we were discussing building a factory with Jinsong Street.
After the factory is built, our factory can be given ten household registration quotas every year, and other people can also apply for temporary household registration.
I'll transfer my eldest sister's household registration here in advance, and with my current relationship with Secretary Liang, there should be no problem." Zhang Junping nodded.
"Then this is a problem for you. I just discussed it with your sister. We want this child and we will accept the fine." The eldest brother-in-law said with a happy smile.
The old Chinese concept is that only having a son means having an offspring.
Even in the 21st century, many people still have not given up on this old concept.
Some people would rather give up their official positions in order to have a son. Some people even get a fake divorce in order to have a son, and then remarry after the child is born.
It can be said that in order to give birth to a son, he tried his best to take advantage of the legal loopholes.
The eldest brother-in-law is naturally no exception. He also wants a son in his heart. However, the eldest sister is too strong and the eldest brother-in-law can only hide his desire for a son.
Now, in his opinion, this is God taking pity on him and giving him a son.
In fact, the eldest sister didn't want a son, but because her father was the production team leader, in order to support her father's work, she had no choice but to take the lead in having a sterilization.

"Just discuss it and take good care of my sister. By the way, tomorrow you take my sister to the hospital and get a gynecology number for a good check-up.
I'm leaving." After Zhang Junping finished speaking, he pushed his bicycle and left the furniture factory.
Humming a little tune all the way back to the alley of Dongmi City.
"Boy, I heard that you were very impressive today? Did you almost make Chen Zengbi angry to death?" Seeing Zhang Junping, the old lady asked with a smile.
"Grandma Liu, how do you know this?"
"There is no airtight wall in the world. Where is the cultural relics store?
Do you think no one knows about your quarrel with Chen Zengbi?"
"Hey, who told him to be disrespectful and break the rules?" Zhang Junping sneered.
"Nearly half of the people in the circle know about your attack on Chen Zengbi. You are completely famous, but it is just a bad name." The old lady was still smiling, as if she was talking about some gossip that had nothing to do with Zhang Junping.
"Notoriety is also a name. Anyway, it's not me who is embarrassed." Zhang Jun smiled nonchalantly.
