102 pairs of twins

  "He Yan, you're now a high-ranking official, our Yang family can't afford to support such a great Buddha. When Old Lady Yang said this, she didn't intend to stand up and welcome Commander Lu."

  Lu Siling's stern eyebrows were indeed not giving the old lady a good look, and he didn't say a word to her. With his hands behind his back, he walked in with his two sons. Wang Hai moved a chair for him, but he didn't sit down.

  "What? You think this chair is not dignified enough? Well, it's provided by the funeral home, and I feel uncomfortable sitting in it too. Especially when I think of Le Er, I believe Jun Er's feelings should be even stronger than mine." Old Lady Yang said with narrowed eyes, looking at the three men in front of her.

  Lu Commander looked at the old lady, his thick eyebrows slightly raised, and a deep smile was hidden in his motionless eyebrows. His tone was stern: "You think it's not comfortable for your aunt to sit down, but my son and I think it's not comfortable for our daughter to sit down. My son and I believe that whenever you think of our daughter, you won't feel comfortable."

  Yang's face suddenly turned cold, and a chill smile appeared between her teeth: "You say that our family's Le'er can't rest in peace?"

  "This tune has its own rhythm in his heart." Commander Lu said.

  "I think your wife will never have a peaceful life, I haven't seen her come over today, and she's not feeling well either?" He slowly tapped the tea lid, with a cold smile at the corner of his mouth.

  "No, these days are for welcoming the little one back home. The family is preparing a banquet and she's busy with that, can't spare any time. And thinking about it, if I came myself, I'm afraid Le'er would be even more uncomfortable in her heart."

  Bump!

  The lid slammed onto the cup, and the smile at the corner of his mouth condensed into a three-point chill: "Is that little girl really your daughter?"

  "A thousand truths and ten thousand certainties. 22 domestic and foreign authoritative identification reports, all inspection samples were escorted by a special person from the Lu family."

  "A single mistake can lead to a hundred troubles. Are you afraid that someone has played a trick on you, hiding your real daughter and sending you a fake one?"

  Under his thick eyebrows and sharp gaze, he pointed at Old Lady Yang: "Would I even fail to recognize my own daughter?"

  "That's hard to say. Haven't we been wrong many times before?" The old man, leaning against the back of his chair, showed no signs of fatigue, and his piercing eyes swept across the faces of the two young masters standing behind Lu Siling, especially Lord Jun's icy face, with a hint of cold smile.

  "You're wrong." Knowing that Old Lady Yang had called Commander Lu, but actually still targeting him, Jun Ye responded with a cold smile, "My family's Xiao Nian has never been wrong. Those who pretend to be, one by one, in front of our Lu family, will have their skin peeled off."

  "It sounds like it's true. If it's really our doll, why not bring her to see me? I'm the great-grandmother of the doll, and I miss her just as much as you do. When the doll comes back, I'll be happier than anyone else. It was all thanks to Le Er that the doll was born safely back then. You won't have forgotten this, will you?" Laughter lines formed deep grooves on the old lady's face, with shadows lingering in them, and half of her face was hidden in the darkness.

  "My sister won't come see you." Lu Huan had no father or brother to tolerate, his handsome eyebrows raised at the same time as Commander Lu's, like a tiger adding wings.

  "Can she afford to do this? A junior not visiting a senior, is that proper etiquette?" The cup of tea was lifted and placed in the palm of his hand, slowly rotating it. "Let her come see me. At least I'm being quite magnanimous as an elder, as long as she kowtows to Le'er, past grievances can be forgiven."

  "What does my sister owe her that she needs to kowtow? She owes my sister!"

  "Hurray!"

  A low shout from Jun Ye made Lu Huan withdraw his foot, which was about to take a step forward. The young and vigorous him couldn't understand why he didn't just beat the old woman until she bled from her airholes, see if she could still be so arrogant?

  This old lady is simply unreasonable and deserves a good scolding!

  Lu Siling and Jun Ye, how could they not know? There's no need to mention it to Yang Lao Tai, let alone negotiate. This time they came, not to negotiate with the old lady, but to spy on military information.

  "It's not impossible for Nannan to come see you."

  "Dad!" Lu Huan exclaimed in a low voice, looking at his father with some incredulity.

  Isn't this sending Mengmeng into the tiger's mouth?

  Yang Lao Tai was just about to open her mouth and smile.

  Then Lu said with a smile, "However, there is one condition. As long as Le'er comes out of the ground and kowtows to Nangnang, plus you kowtowing to Nangnang, we can consider it."

  Bang! Ka-ching!

  Yang old lady jumped up from the chair, and the previous benevolent and noble old lady's appearance turned into a ferocious beast: "Lu Heyan, don't be too presumptuous! Don't forget that your wife is a member of the Yang family!"

  "My wife is a member of the Yang family. My late father-in-law and mother-in-law, who have passed away, are also respectable seniors of the Yang family that I hold in esteem. However, I, Lu Heyan, am a person who distinguishes between right and wrong. If there's a wrongdoer among the Yang family members, I won't acknowledge them. Since I don't acknowledge them, my son and daughter will follow me and not acknowledge them either!" The last three words "not acknowledge" from Commander Lu were firm and decisive, leaving no room for wavering.

  "What did you come to see me for today?" Yang Lao Tai pointed at him with her raised hand, "Since you're so fearless, why did you agree to attend Le Er's funeral with your son?"

  "Isn't Le Er's funeral over?" Commander Lu asked with a provocative raised eyebrow.

  Yang Lao Tai was choked by his words: "What are you doing here?"

  Lu's stern gaze had already been fixed on Yang Xiu, who had been silent all along: "My daughter's art gallery was set on fire, and the arsonist was a middle-aged woman. Coincidentally, this woman had just visited her son who was sentenced to prison, and then went missing for some time."

  "So you're saying it's your daughter's own fault that she got into trouble and was set on fire?" Cold smile, "You don't think this has anything to do with anyone else, do you?"

  "Let's talk about something else. When Nangnang disappeared, the guard on duty that day was gone for many years without a trace. Later, according to one of my old subordinates, it was revealed that this guard was actually a person supported by the Yang family."

  "Who said that?" Yang's old face changed slightly.

  "It doesn't matter who said it, what's important is that this Yang family member who brought someone along, happens to be my wife's younger brother. And I recall, her younger brother's son, is about the same age as and looks like the person sitting here."

  When he heard the spearheads pointing at himself, Yang Xiu smiled slightly and stood up, bowing half to Director Lu: "Uncle, this is our first meeting since I grew up, please forgive me for not having a deep impression of you when I was young, so I couldn't recognize my elders for a while."

  "I remember you were later adopted by your childless great uncle."

  "Yes."

  "How is your great aunt doing now?"

  "Very good, in America."

  "Were you in the US all along?"

  "Yes."

  Under the thick eyebrows, two carefully examined eyes fell on Yang Xiu's pale and refined face, then suddenly withdrew and turned to the old lady: "On the day of the family banquet, the Yang family can send a representative to attend. You are not feeling well, we don't want to trouble you with an invitation. Let Yang Xiu come instead."

  Having said this, he didn't even bother with the usual courtesies, and turned to leave with a flick of his sleeve.

  Yang old lady was so angry that her two legs were shaking straight, and the two young masters of the Lu family who followed behind her father walked away, all gave her a deep and meaningful cold glance.

  Finally, Jun Ye's cold intent, just like his father's, was retracted back into Yang Xiu's knife-sharp eyebrows.

  After the Lu family left, Old Lady Yang plopped down in her chair, panting heavily for a long time.

  Hearing Yang Lao Tai's chair-throwing voice, Jun Ye walked out of the door with Father and raised an eyebrow: "Now you're getting angry."

  "It's a dog, it will bite people no matter what, even if it's been beaten to the ground." Commander Lu took this opportunity to educate his two sons, "The crazier the dog is, unless you kill it, otherwise it will always get back up and bite you again, even if it only has one last breath left."

  Lu Huan's eyeballs rolled around in a circle, indicating that she had remembered it firmly.

  When others opened the car door, Lu Shuai asked his eldest son: "Have you met her before?"

  Today, Old Lady Yang's loss of composure in front of Jun Ye must have made Commander Lu realize something. Jun Ye no longer hid the truth from his father: "Yes. I just wanted to confirm whether it was only Yang Le'er who did this or if the entire Yang family was involved."

  The son handles things, and Commander Lu can rest assured. Basically, it's a case of "the student surpasses the master". It has to be admitted that the son is even more ruthless than him. So it's no wonder that those people now fear his son even more than they fear him.

  "You must take good care of your sister. Your sister is a girl, just like your mother, not a boy." Commander Lu looked at the two brothers and said with a deep tone, "If one day in the future, I and your mother pass away before you do, the only ones who can protect you will be yourselves and your siblings, understand?"

  "Dad, may you and mom live a hundred years." The youngest son Lu Huan didn't like his father's old-fashioned and somewhat melancholic words.

  Compared with his immature younger brother, Jun Ye had no second words and replied to his father: "I know what I'm doing."

  The car drove halfway when Commander Lu suddenly thought of it: "Did Nangnang ask about the cause of the fire?"

  "Not asking."

  About this matter, Manman didn't ask a single question, it can be said that Junye had no way of understanding his sister's clever and cunning heart.

  "She might be thinking, but asking is useless." Commander Lu seemed to be smarter than Jun Ye in this regard. The big eyes under his thick eyebrows were smiling at his daughter, "Nang Nang, you are very smart, your brother must not underestimate you."

  Sister is more ruthless and practical than him in some ways, and Jun Ye "obediently" agreed with his father's point of view.

  In the end, Commander Lu entrusted his eldest son with a thousand things: "Niangniang is pregnant, which is a good thing, but your mother is worried and I am also worried. You must grasp this measure yourself. The Lu family does not lack children, Niangniang doesn't have to take this risk."

  The problem is, his sister loves the child more than anyone else.

  Her eyes narrowed slightly, and the light in them was filled with complex meaning as it met the colors of the light shining through the car window.

  ……

  Manman knew who the arsonist was, but she and Du Yu tacitly agreed not to tell Chunxia. They were worried that Chunxia would take responsibility upon herself. Before Le Wenbin's sentencing, Chunxia had written a letter to the presiding judge, stating that if such scum were not eliminated, the literary world would suffer far greater losses than this incident. The letter was co-signed by several prominent figures in the literary circle.

  Early summer is a kind of temperament, punishing evil and promoting good, saying it will be done, and having a heroic spirit.

  Winning praise at the same time, it's easy to offend people.

  Keeping a tight lip about this matter doesn't mean that she hasn't been thinking about it in her heart. For now, after dealing with the gallery's affairs, she needs to focus on opening the restaurant. Safety aspects cannot be ignored.

  When hesitating about who to consult, a love letter from her husband solved this problem.

  Jiang Dazhuang, who has always been known for his elegant and unrestrained handwriting, wrote this second letter to his wife with a kind of serious romance.

  Man Man:

  Every day, learning how to be a good husband has become my daily compulsory course and the subject I yearn for progress and results. When I was still not skilled in this art, heaven gave me another test question, how to be a good father.

  I admit I was nervous and uneasy, but at the same time, a sense of pride, mission, and determination not to betray honor or shame surged up in my heart.

  Vine saw this, speechless: Is her husband writing a declaration before going into battle?

  Look at what Jiang Dashao wrote next: "Manman, I want to be your safe haven, your bay. But I'm a soldier and can't always be by your side. So my greatest wish is that I had a pair of eyes that could see a thousand miles, not only seeing you anywhere, anytime, but also seeing what you hope for, what you like, and what you long for."

  My wife's wish, I as her husband, hope to help her achieve it.

  Because I think just like you, that a husband and wife are happiest when doing the same thing together.

  "God gave us children, isn't it for us to strive to do a good job with the same thing?"

  Having read this far, she read every word of what her husband had written, and each one struck a chord deep within her.

  Manman suddenly admired her husband extremely: You said that although Jiang Dashao's writing at the beginning was a bit like the form of Gong culture, it turned into her inner confusion in the back. The whole letter is full of serious and solemn atmosphere, while also having Jiang Dashao's inherent humor. Even when teasing Manman to smile, he wrapped her heart around again.

  Having children is a test given by heaven to the couple, testing whether they can be as firm as gold and have a common heart and mind to do everything well for their child.

  My husband is absolutely right in what he said.

  So no matter what happens to them in the future, they can't forget that it will affect their marriage. The standard of testing is the child.

  Licking the pen tip, Manman wrote a reply letter to her husband:

  "A Yan:"

  I love the child, want to give birth to it, want to raise it well, want to be its best mother. But I know that only having a mother is not enough for the child. The child also hopes to have a father who loves and cares for it.

  What you said is all right. Relatively speaking, I am not a good mother, but you will definitely be a good father.

  At this point, I, as a little wife, am willing to listen to my husband's instructions and become a better mother.

  "Don't sleep in the living room tonight, sleep next to me and listen to my and the child's innermost thoughts, okay?"

  Upon receiving his wife's letter on the same day, Jiang Yan quickly scratched his head with his finger.

  At night, when her husband was about to take a pillow out of the living room, Manman pulled down his sleeve: "Didn't you see the letter?"

  "This can't be misunderstood by my wife," Jiang Yan said with a serious expression: "I'm afraid of hurting you and the child—"

  Man Man Ji: It turns out that her husband was angry about this matter, and she thought he was mad at her for not discussing the opening of a restaurant with him.

  "I'll be in the middle compartment of the quilt, nothing will happen." Manman's little wife made every effort to set up a fire device for her husband.

  "Your husband is a soldier and has an instinct for crossing the line of fire." Jiang Yan had no control over his own power.

  For this young couple, the husband never restrained his desires for his wife. Having indulged his wife's desires for so long, it wasn't easy to completely hold back in an instant.

  "I'll ask my brother if he has any ideas." The little daughter-in-law suddenly thought of Master Jun.

  Who made her remember that on their first day in the bridal chamber, Jun Ye had vowed to teach her husband "driving skills".

  "No!" Jiang Yan hastily raised his hand and shook it in front of his wife.

  "What's wrong?" Yueliang'er blinked, actually, she had been very interested in how Junye taught her husband "driving skills" and had kept it in mind.

  The seemingly gentle and obedient little wife is actually a heartless girl.

  Jiang Yan closed the door of his house, and it can be said that family ugliness cannot be made public. Of course, what is being made public is not Jiang Dazhuang himself, but rather Jiang Dazhuang believes that what he fears will be made public is Junye's affair.

  She asked her daughter-in-law: "Do you know how often he wants it?"

  The couple huddled in the room, excitedly and indecently discussing the sexual preferences of their elder brother, completely disregarding the scene where Jun might have vomited blood.

  "I don't know." He shook his head, and a crescent moon-shaped eye revealed an unprecedented interest.

  "Twice a week, he says it's scientific. But what he means by twice a week is ordinary men. He's a soldier, several times a week is normal."

  Manman got more and more excited: So, Iceberg had already done it with his fiancée?

  "I asked him that question just like you did." We can become a couple, in some ways, we are indeed ninety-nine percent alike.

  "How did he answer?" As soon as she heard the excitement, her little wife's head was stuck to her husband's chest.

  It's unbearable to just hear about such things, especially hearing a depressed man talk about doing such things, it can be terrifying and stir up people's nerves.

  The husband's hands were burning with desire, and he had already started to unbutton his wife's clothes without realizing it. This confirmed what he had previously confessed: "Although he avoided answering, I could tell that he must have done it before, and at a very young age."

  "I think so too." Manman's little wife chimed in, "You've heard him say it himself, that having children is no problem at all. That icy face he shows to Bai Lian Jie is just a facade. He's the type who suddenly erupts like a volcano."

  The more the wife spoke, the more excited she became. When she heard about the volcanic eruption, her lips really sprayed out sparks. She was so dry that she quickly stuck to her husband's lips and started kissing him fiercely.

  A spark can set off a prairie fire. At this moment, a jarring doorbell is simply murderous.

  The doorbell rang repeatedly, forcing Jiang Dashao, who had just wanted to pull down his pants, to put them back on again. He almost wanted to shoot the person ringing the doorbell dead.

  As soon as the door opened, the icy face standing at the entrance was like a bucket of water from the North Pole, extinguishing the flames on the other person's body from head to toe.

  Bing Yu's eyes swept across her brother-in-law's crotch, where his pants were not zipped up, as if she had expected this, otherwise she wouldn't have chosen to come and make a surprise inspection on the second night.

  "Are you taking a bath?"

  Jun Ye's excuse blocked Jiang Yan's words first.

  "No, I just went to the bathroom." Hurriedly pulling up his zipper, he opened the door for his elder cousin.

  Manman had just finished tidying up her clothes in the room and came out, seeing that cold face, she might have suddenly thought of herself and her husband's tongue twister in the room, almost biting her own tongue.

  "Have you just taken a bath too?"

  For your X-ray eyes, no matter how you disguise yourself in clothes, you can't hide the passion and flush left on your face and lips.

  The little wife and her husband immediately caught each other's eye: See, I'm right, aren't I? This man must have done it with a woman before. Otherwise, how could he be so experienced?

  Seeing the couple exchanging flirtatious glances, it was clear that they were not taking this matter seriously. Lord Jun slammed his palm on the table: "Do you think I was joking with you all along?!"

  The couple was awakened by the iceberg.

  "I was wrong about this tonight, I promise it won't happen again." A man who makes a mistake will correct it.

  The little wife didn't want her husband to become distant from her because of this, so she slept in the living room every day and said: "You misunderstood, we were discussing my opening a restaurant."

  Anyway, this matter, she is going to discuss with her husband tonight, and go together to manage the happy things. It's just that the main topic hasn't started yet, but Comrade Junye's matter has sparked other interests first.

  After all, it was you, sir, who started this trouble.

  However, Jun Ye was completely unaware of it, and his attention was suddenly drawn to what his sister had said: "Open a restaurant?"

  "Hmm. The master's art gallery can't be opened anymore and will be closed down. We've thought it through, we want to jointly invest in opening a restaurant."

  "Why open a restaurant?" The cold voice sank, heavily sinking.

  Was it their fault for not protecting her well, letting her lose heart and interest on this path?

  Such excellent talent, yet having to change careers.

  "Opening a restaurant not only earns money with less risk, but also allows me to continue painting."

  The gallery is a speculative business with high risks, and relatively speaking, the restaurant recovers profits quickly. On this point, Jun Ye had no way to refute. However, he didn't believe his sister's next sentence that she could continue painting.

  "If you're looking to make money, I don't think it's necessary."

  Even if her husband can't afford to support her, the Lu family will not abandon their own daughter. After the gallery burned down, Old Master Lu has already made a promise that he would invest in building a new gallery as compensation for his granddaughter. It's just waiting for the day of the family banquet to present it in front of everyone. But now, my sister is saying...

  "Why is it not necessary? I think earning money with one's own hands is a very happy thing." The little daughter-in-law, Manman, held up her glasses frame, and her crescent-shaped eyes were clear and bright, without any confusion or hesitation.

  The Lu family is of this temperament, no reward without merit.

  The gentleman was speechless at that moment.

  From a wife's perspective, being supported by her husband without limits: "I think she can do it."

  His brother-in-law's words ignited Lord Jun's anger: "She is now pregnant, and you let her work hard in the restaurant, saying it's okay?"

  "No." His wife hastily made excuses for him, "The restaurant is not opening now, it's being planned first, and will open after I give birth to the child."

  "After you have children, you need to take care of them, do you think you can still run a restaurant?" he retorted back at her.

  "All career women are like that. Mei Jie is too." Manman thought if other women could do it, why couldn't she?

  It's good that you care about your sister, but aren't you worrying too much?

  Her icy gaze wasn't on them, but rather piercing through her motives from the start. She narrowed her eyes: "Has he been crying to you?"

  "This remark irritated Huojing Tong, and Manman jumped up: 'He never cries poor to anyone. You don't understand him, don't say that about him!'"

  Also, it was this person who time and again sparked gunpowder between her and the Lu family.

  "It's better if there isn't. If there is, I've said it before, I'll make him look good." With that, the door slammed shut with a bang.

  What's his problem, acting like this in front of her? It has nothing to do with her dad anyway.

  She hadn't even discussed opening a restaurant with Wen Shixuan, and didn't know if her father was willing to come in.

  "Alright, alright." Jiang Yansheng was afraid that his wife would get angry and hurt her body, so he quickly pushed her back into the room and hugged her to comfort her. "This matter is not clear to your brother, I'll go talk to your father about it and explain the situation. But first, you have to promise me not to harm yourself or the child."

  "I told him I'd open this restaurant after giving birth to the child. Why didn't he listen to me properly?!"

  Everyone can understand her words, why did he have so many prejudices against her.

  "I'm no longer the child he thinks I am, not that little girl he mentioned. I've grown up, now I can do things, work and support myself, my children and my family. Why doesn't he see me for who I really am?"

  That's because he has lost before, been afraid before, and been terrified before.

  Jiang Yan thought to himself: Could it be that his elder cousin had developed post-traumatic stress disorder? Or was the entire Lu family afflicted with it.

  So for Lu's family, his daughter-in-law would always be that little dumpling-like girl, not the grown-up and independent woman cultivated by Wen Shi Xuan.

  English eyebrows frowned tightly: It seems that this matter must still start with Mrs. Lu opening her mouth.

  ……

  Another unhappy parting.

  So much so that Leng Mei, on the second day when she returned to her unit, had twisted into a knot that couldn't be untied.

  "What's wrong?" asked Mr. Yao, who had come in and saw his gloomy face.

  "She wants to open a restaurant." With a cold tone, there was some resentment.

  "Open a restaurant?" Mr. Yao's narrow eyebrows rose, clearly indicating his disapproval.

  "What would you do if you were me?"

  "I disagree." Three words from Master Yao, firm and decisive.

  "She said she'll open it again after giving birth."

  "I also disagree."

  Yao Ye's biting words made Jun Ye suddenly look at him with different eyes, his cold gaze narrowing: "What are you thinking?"

  "We both understand that if she gets pregnant and gives birth smoothly, it will be the best opportunity to regulate her body."

  Mr. Yao was rich in scientific theory and it suited his temperament perfectly, compared to which, his brother-in-law's decision that took care of human feelings always made him feel a little annoyed.

  In a way, he thought that he understood why his sister would choose this man over Master Yao.

  "I don't like him very much. Especially about his family."

  "You don't like him anymore, he was chosen by Nang Nang herself." Mr. Yao said sincerely.

  What's most important is that you like him yourself, because he's the man you'll be spending the rest of your life with. Other people's opinions don't matter.

  If he were an unreasonable big brother, he would have separated these two people long ago.

  He is reasonable and won't do stupid things like Xu Yujiao did.

  "I wanted to turn him around, but the more I turned, the more I found that he and Nang Nang had the same temper." Jun Ye was completely helpless with this kind of husband-and-wife relationship.

  "You should be happy about this. It means that their husband-and-wife relationship will always be good and there won't be any disagreements or problems." Mr. Yao only reminded him of the positive aspects.

  "I don't want to think about it anymore," said Jun Ye.

  It's not suitable for the two of them to continue discussing this sensitive topic between themselves.

  Knowing what was on his mind, Master Yao smiled and would never break through this layer of paper.

  Yesterday, Manman had her blood drawn here and did a blood test report, which was handed over to the office desk.

  Holding this blood test report, Leng Mei's eyebrows did not relax.

  "It's best to make preparations for the blood bank in advance." Old Yao said very seriously.

  "My dad told me that if possible, let her not have children." Long sighs rolled between icy lips, fingertips rubbed hard in the eyebrows.

  Narrow and long eyes, also complexly kneaded into a ball.

  ……

  At the end of the weekend holiday, Jiang Dashao had to return to his unit. Before leaving, he handed over his pregnant wife to his second sister, Jiang Mei, who was an experienced mother.

  Jiang Mei heard that Manman was pregnant and happily brought over an old hen early in the morning to make soup for her sister-in-law.

  It's an old hen again.

  As soon as the door opened, I saw Jiang Mei holding an old hen in her hand.

  That guy is so annoying.

  Xiao Dongzi followed his mother to congratulate his aunt, pointing at the old hen and saying: "This chicken is particularly big, it's said that if you eat it, you can give birth to an eight-pound fat baby."

  Children don't understand the danger of a larger fetus, thinking it's good news.

  Jiang Mei patted her son's head and said to his wife, "Man Man, don't listen to him talking nonsense. This child, as long as the weight is moderate, it's fine. If he really had an eight-pound baby, a normal delivery would be impossible."

  Manman let them in, handed Dongzi a breakfast package and a cup of soy milk, saying: "You haven't had breakfast yet, have you? Doesn't Dongzi need to go to school today?"

  "He's going to see a doctor today, I told him to take a day off from school and come visit you." Jiang Mei wasn't worried about her son's homework.

  She is an open-minded mother who doesn't like elite education. Her son is still young, and as long as he can play, let him play. Except for the senior class of kindergarten, he won't take any extracurricular classes. It's just that at first, her son said he liked his aunt's paintings and wanted his aunt to teach him how to paint.

  Manman is now free and will teach her husband's nephew to paint. Like Jiang Mei, teaching Xiaodong to learn painting, Manman never restricts the requirements of painting methods, just let Xiaodong hold a crayon and scribble casually.

  "Aunt, when are you going to have a baby?" Little Dongzi, munching on his bun, began to curiously size up Mianmian's flat stomach, unable to imagine that there might be a little sister or brother moving inside.

  "Right, when is the due date? What did the doctor say? Has a obstetrician been found?" Jiang Mei's string of questions left her breathless.

  Manman couldn't answer almost any of them.

  "The expected delivery date is around next March. The doctor hasn't made any arrangements yet." Mianmian's little wife spoke hesitantly, finding it hard to get the words out.

  "No arrangements?" Jiang Mei exclaimed in surprise, "If you can't find a doctor, you could have let Ah Yan call me. I'll arrange for you to see the same doctor as your friend Chuxia, okay?"

  Now, Manman bit her lip and said: "Sorry, Second Sister, Ah Yan and I also thought so, but my brother said he would take care of this matter personally."

  Jun Ye personally took action. Jiang Mei blinked: "If Director Lu is willing to show up, don't worry about this, the best obstetricians can be found."

  Jun Ye said he would personally be her doctor, and both she and her husband were frightened by Jun Ye's words.

  The prenatal examination has not started yet, and that day was just asked to draw blood first.

  "Today is my first day for the check-up, second sister, can you accompany me, okay?" Manman's little wife was a new mother for the first time and was afraid of everything.

  It's perfectly normal.

  Jiang Mei patted her hand: "Mm, I'll go with you."

  "I want to go too!" Little Dongzi raised his hand, "I heard there's a device that can see if it's a little brother or sister in advance, I want to take a look."

  "Go." Jiang Mei hurried her little son away. "Don't listen to him talk nonsense, it's not that quick to do a B ultrasound to determine the baby's sex."

  On the way to the hospital, I couldn't help but bring up the topic of having a son or daughter because of what my son said.

  "At first, my mother-in-law was in the countryside and rushed over. Although she didn't say anything, I could understand her expression. At that time, I had a fight with my husband about whether to have a daughter or son. Who knew that in the end, this little thing came out and it actually made my mother-in-law happy." Jiang Mei was stubborn, her mother-in-law wanted her to give birth to a boy, but she insisted on giving birth to a girl, which infuriated her mother-in-law.

  To get back to the point, Manman is different from her, she can't persuade Manman like this, saying: "My dad didn't say it, but I understand in my heart that military families all hope to have a grandson who will take up arms to defend his country in the future."

  There is no family that does not wish for a son in their home.

  This has almost become a folk custom throughout China.

  It is even more prevalent in some places.

  "Second sister, what if I gave birth to a daughter?"

  "You gave birth to a daughter, but the Jiang family still dotes on you."

  Jiang Mei gave Manman a reassuring sentence.

  Man Man never thought about having a boy or girl, according to her husband's words, "go with the flow", and both sons and daughters are loved.

  Jiang Mei's car has not arrived at Jun Ye's unit yet.

  On the road, I saw Jiang Fei intercepting a car, with his mother and Jin Meichen standing on one side.

  Jiang Fei hasn't dared to drive a car since he fell down.

  Marriage is also impossible to separate naturally.

  Jin Meichen was seen in an unusual state, not wearing tight-fitting clothes, but loose clothing instead. Moreover, Jiang Mu was accompanying her on the side, being extremely cautious.

  Jiang Mei and Manman's eyelids suddenly jumped twice.

  Everyone knows that since Jin Meichen was defeated, Jiang Mu Lian didn't even want to take a look at him.

  It's now contrary to usual practice, and it can be imagined what kind of change has occurred, for Jiang Mu who values her grandson.

  "Ah——" Jiang Mei tapped the steering wheel nervously as she overtook Jiang Fei's car.

  In an instant, Manman's large glasses, which were supported by her hands, met Jin Meichen's proud and triumphant gaze.

  Xiao Dongzi quietly inserted himself between the two women and whispered, "Aunt's pregnancy, it's best not to let Grandma know."

  Even little kids know what's at stake here, Jiang Mei and Manman you look at me I look at you.

  "Has Ah Yan handed over the Second Sister?" asked Manman.

  "He even told me not to tell my dad and husband." Jiang Meiting was nervous, seeing that her brother's arrangement was indeed reasonable. "Originally, Xiaodong didn't know about it either, but this kid is clever and secretly ran to the side to eavesdrop on your conversation with my husband, so he couldn't be kept in the dark."

  "I'm Auntie's loyal FANS, I'll be faithful to Auntie and won't harm her. You shouldn't keep secrets from me." Xiaodongzi retorted confidently to his mom.

  Manman was delighted by him and smiled at Jiang Mei: "With him around, I can remind myself to be a good mom anytime."

  "Don't spoil him." She said so with her mouth, and Jiang Mei felt proud of having a lively son.

  The heavy atmosphere suddenly dissipated. The two of them started gossiping about where Jin Mei Chen would go to give birth if she were pregnant.

  "It's definitely not going to my unit anymore. Last time that thing was made a fuss about, our director is a clever person, and they told me that they won't take my sister-in-law's medical records again." Jiang Mei thought for a moment, "What's strange is how did my sister-in-law get pregnant? Previously she clearly couldn't get pregnant. Our director also said that my sister-in-law's infertility was unprecedented, with unknown causes."

  "If it's really unexplained, then it's more likely that I'm pregnant," said Manman.

  Jiang Mei thought about her sister-in-law's words and also made sense, nodding in agreement.

  Jin Meichen standing by the road could see Manman, Jiang Mu and Jiang Fei, and naturally recognized Jiang Mei's car at a glance.

  "Look at her, so carefree, can't even drive herself, always ordering Ah Mei to drive her around, who knows where she's off to play again. Burned down an art gallery and still not satisfied with the trouble she's caused." Jiang Mu is now filled with anger whenever she sees Man Man, thinking that the Lu family doesn't acknowledge her as a relative, all because of Man Man's meddling.

  The news of the burning of Manman's painting gallery was broadcast that night, and she felt: The heavens had eyes, punishing her daughter-in-law for her.

  "It's said that someone set the fire, and everyone in the gallery was burned to death." Jiang Fei thought, but he wouldn't be as naive and foolish as his mother. Whoever dared to burn down Lu's daughter's gallery would definitely suffer consequences next. The outcome would certainly be worse than his.

  "If she hadn't done something wrong to others, would they burn down her gallery?" Jiang Mu didn't sympathize with Manman at all.

  Jiang Mu dislikes Manman more and more, but for Jin Meichen, it's an opportunity. Who made her nothing now, she can only rely on giving birth to win the old man's favor. Fortunately, heaven has eyes, and finally let her get pregnant at this time.

  She believes that as long as she gives birth to a grandson for the Jiang family, will Mianmian still be afraid of not being able to give birth?

  What can Lu's daughter do? If she can't even lay an egg, she's not even a woman.

  "Let's go, hurry to the hospital to see if it's true." The news of the eldest daughter-in-law's pregnancy was still based on her own experiment with a pregnancy test stick, and after all, it wasn't as reliable as a hospital.

  Chiang's mother urged them on, and the three of them rushed towards the hospital. They found Dr. Fang again.

  First, a urine test was done, and soon the result proved it. Jiang Mu and Jiang Fei were both overjoyed and speechless.

  Dr. Fang then told the three of them, "Now the hospital has a one-on-one patient service policy. Patients not only have their own dedicated doctor but also their own dedicated nurse midwife who is responsible for the entire pregnancy and childbirth process."

  "Then trouble Doctor Fang to introduce a good nurse." Jiang's mother said as she stuffed a large red envelope into Doctor Fang's pocket.

  Dr. Fang smiled and pretended not to see the red envelope, saying: "Alright, I'll look into it for you, and tell you again in a few days."

  The doctor did his best in this matter, and Jiang Mu and the other two people all burst out laughing.
