Chapter 4641
The old lady kept her thoughts to herself: If it’s not meant to be, don’t force it. If you’re not destined to have a daughter, no amount of effort or adjustment will change that.
Back in the day, her daughters-in-law also tried various methods, but they still gave birth to sons. Even with modern technology, if fate isn’t on your side, you might have a daughter but not be able to raise her. Just like one of the York family’s ancestors—he had a daughter, but she didn’t survive. It was a heartbreaking loss. In her opinion, it was better not to have a daughter at all than to suffer that kind of pain.
Still, she said encouragingly, “Try for a second child—you still have a chance.”
Of course, she wouldn’t say anything that might discourage Elisa.
Besides, the Johnson family wasn’t as extreme as the Yorks when it came to having more sons than daughters. Maybe Elisa really would get lucky.
“Grandma,” came the voices from behind.
