Bab 153: Nine children!!! she is a marvel

And so it was that the good news was shared by BSTV at the lunch hour. 

"We would like to send our heartfelt congratulations to Dorian and Mega Su upon the birth of their ninth child."

It was not everyday that one saw such news anywhere in the empire. It was not unusual for one man to have nine children, what was unusual was for one woman to give birth to nine children, all naturally at that. The citizens of the blue star had yet something else to gossip about, especially the women.

"Have you heard the news?" one woman that was in the corn fields asked her neighbor. 

"What news?" the other asked. 

"The governor's mother has given birth to her ninth child." 

"Eh," another woman joined in, "I have never in my life heard about a woman giving birth to nine children." 

"Her husband must be proactive when it comes to their sex life." someone said and they laughed.
