五女二男 read as "ごじょになん”？


In がばいばあちゃん, the phrase 五女二男 crops up. Given the compact nature of the
expression, I'm assuming 男 and 女 are read with their alternate readings なん and
じょ respectively while the numbers remain unchanged. However, this is the first
time I've encountered a phrase of this kind, hence my question. The full
sentence is as follows.

> 昭和十七年（一九四二年）、戦中に夫を亡くし、以来、厳しい戦後を佐賀大学とその附属小中学校の掃除婦をして、五女二男、合計七人の子供を育てて生き抜いてきた。

I translated this as:

> In the 17th year of Showa (1942) she lost her husband in the war, and
> afterwards during the harsh postwar period worked as a cleaning lady in the
> combined primary and middle school attached to Saga university, and having
> five girls and two boys, with a combined total of seven, she successfully
> brought up her children.

よろしくお願いします.
