After the policy changes Zhang Yu continued to have more children, so shortly after the first child was born, she had two more.
Three births resulted in four children, three boys and a girl. The last set was twins of mixed sex, with their names decided based on the family names Zhang Yu and her partner had previously agreed upon.
Since Liu Dashan failed to convince Zhang Yu to have even one child take the Liu surname, he would always huff with anger whenever he saw her.
When Liu Dashan saw that Zhang Yu had two children with the surname Xiao, two with the surname Zhang, it left the old man fuming.
Liu Dashan watched the four children playing in the yard, his eyes glazed over.
Recalling how his own household was dreadfully empty, with only five adults and all being elderly, Liu Dashan felt cold inside.
Wang Pandi, sitting beside him, sniffed disdainfully at how the old man kept staring at Zhang Yu's children.
