Chapter 154 wasn't going very smoothly.

Tian Lei's mother couldn't believe what Tian Lei said: the child would take Tian Lei's surname? Not the son-in-law's? Is that even possible?

"It's not because you gave birth to a girl that the child took your surname, is it?" Tian Lei's mother still didn't believe it.

Tian Lei moved her body with difficulty and turned to look at the wrinkled child next to her.

"No, before I was born, the old man said that whether it was a boy or a girl, they would take my surname."

He even said that he has many grandchildren and doesn't need me!

The patriarch of such a large family is indeed very hard-hearted!

Tian Lei sighed as she spoke.

Tian Lei's mother looked at Tian Lei and sighed, feeling a little sad herself.

"Xiao Lei! It's not about that thing that happened when Mom was here last time, is it? Why is that child tattled on me?"

Is that why? If so, that old man is being incredibly petty.

"Mom, it's because of that incident. I told you back then to keep an eye on my brother's two kids. You always said that no kid is ever completely innocent."

Now look what's happened! We've offended someone's precious grandson, and now their grandfather is going to come and vent his anger!

The child I grew up in wasn't raised by someone else's grandfather, so of course he would protect and raise the child himself.

I had previously thought that if I had a boy, I could have a chance to compete for him.

Unfortunately, she was unlucky and gave birth to a girl. Tian Lei became angrier the more she thought about it, and glared fiercely at the sleeping baby girl next to her.

"So what's your man's attitude now?"

He won't..."

"Since this girl came out, has he been in the hospital for even an hour?"

"They only came to take a look and then left. If they really cared about the child, wouldn't they have stayed at the hospital a little longer?" Tian Lei said sarcastically.

Tian Lei's mother was filled with anxiety.

It seems I completely offended the younger one when I stayed at my daughter's house last time.

Otherwise, the younger one wouldn't have filed a lawsuit in Shanghai.

"Xiao Lei, what are you going to do next?" Tian Lei's mother asked in a low voice.

Tian Lei's eyes darkened.

"What can we do? What else can we do? We'll just have to take it one step at a time!"

Anyway, the child is Lao Lei's, so it doesn't matter if she doesn't have the surname Lei. It's fine as long as her father has the surname Lei.

Old Master Lei's birthday is on the 8th of next month, and Old Lei will definitely be going back.

Although I'm still in my postpartum period, Lao Lei has a car, so he can take the baby back to visit.

The old man only said that the child would take my surname, but he didn't say that the child couldn't enter the Lei family's door!

Once you see it, you can't pretend the child doesn't exist.

What happens next... we'll take it slow!

No matter what, Lao Lei is still a member of the Lei family. As long as Lao Lei gets better, I will get better, and when I get better, the children will naturally get better.

"I don't want to think about anything else for now," Tian Lei said slowly.

Tian Lei's mother nodded.

This daughter is very shrewd; many people introduced her to potential partners, but she just didn't like any of them.

It wasn't until I visited my relatives in Shanghai...

"Okay! As long as you have a plan, that's fine. Now, about your brother's matter..."

"Let's not talk about it for now! Old Lei has never given anyone special treatment, and now the old man is very dissatisfied with him."

If favoritism were to occur at this time, wouldn't that make the old man even angrier?

Lei was already under pressure when we got married, so let's just calm things down now!

"Let my older brother stay in his current position for another two years!" Tian Lei immediately refused.

"But... that opportunity in the city is really rare!"

If your older brother seizes this opportunity and goes to the main factory, he'll be promoted more than two levels!

"We can't just let it go to waste..." Tian Lei's mother still wanted to try.

"Mom, what does it mean to have a rare opportunity?"

If Lao Lei gets promoted, there are some opportunities that will come to him without him even having to ask.

Don't be so easily swayed!

This is something you can only ask for once, so of course you should save that opportunity for the most important time.

"If you speak up now, what will happen later?" Tian Lei's tone was very unpleasant.

Tian Lei's mother didn't say much. This was something that Tian Lei was supposed to ask her son-in-law for, and since Tian Lei didn't agree, it was basically hopeless.

Even though she was unwilling, Tian Lei's mother had no choice but to suppress her feelings.

"Fine, I'll do whatever you say. Xiao Lei, you can only have this one child. Can't you find a way to have another one?" Tian Lei's mother was also a little unwilling.

In such families, having a son is more advantageous than having a daughter.

Tian Lei got a headache as soon as she heard this.

"Mom, do you think that's possible? With the one-child policy in place, what kind of status does Lao Lei have? Can he openly violate this regulation?"

This is the only one I can have in my life! Also, don't you dare mention sending my brother's two to my side again.

Isn't this situation all caused by those two kids?

"Two troublemakers!" Tian Lei said angrily.

Tian Lei's mother...

"Okay, okay, I'll do whatever you say? I'll come to your house and make you some chicken soup! Your Aunt Li isn't a good cook, her food isn't very good."

I'll make it for you..."

"Mom, please don't make things worse for me! I'm already feeling really annoyed these past few days!"

If you go to my house and that kid is home, do you know what he'll say if he sees you?

What if he says something that doesn't suit his taste and then complains to his superiors?

"Stop it! I'll go back after you're done reading! I have people taking care of me here, and there will be people taking care of me at home after I'm discharged." Tian Lei was a little impatient.

Tian Lei's mother dared not say anything more.

The mother and daughter remained silent in the ward for a long time until Secretary Lei came over after get off work.

As soon as Secretary Lei entered the ward, Tian Lei noticed that Secretary Lei looked a little unwell.

After greeting Tian Lei's mother and inquiring about Tian Lei's condition from the doctor, Secretary Lei looked at the sleeping baby.

Tian Lei glanced at Secretary Lei's expression and knew that he must have something on his mind.

After thinking for a moment, Tian Lei winked at her mother, signaling her to leave first.

Tian Lei's mother immediately understood that Tian Lei had something to say to Secretary Lei.

"Um... son-in-law, I'll come see Xiaolei again tomorrow. I've already spent the whole afternoon looking after her."

Your child is so well-behaved, she doesn't cry or fuss! You're so lucky to have such a lovely daughter.

Okay, you two talk now! I'm going back now, I'll come back tomorrow.

After saying that, Tian Lei's mother left in a hurry.

It wasn't until the ward door was closed again that Tian Lei looked at Secretary Lei.

"Old Lei, you look so tired? Are you too busy with work?"

It's okay. I have doctors and nurses at the hospital, and they are taking good care of me. You can focus on your work.

Oh, by the way, aren't you going back to Shanghai next month? I've already prepared the gift for the old man, so you can go back..."

"No need, I won't be going back for now!" Secretary Lei said calmly.

Tian Lei...

"Huh? You're not going back?"

"Yes, the old man said I'm too busy with work and don't need to go back for the time being!" Secretary Lei repeated.
