In her previous life, Old Lady Wu was beaten and scolded by her husband, Huang Mancang, for half her life. For the sake of her four sons, she endured and managed to hold the family together.
...
"Brother, what should we do? I don't want Zhenjun to marry that woman." Jia Hua wiped away her tears and looked up at Factory Director Jia.
"You know that the Miao mother and daughter are both disreputable. Now they say they have a relationship with Zhenjun, but who knows how many times she's slept with other men?"
"Watch your words!"
Factory Director Jia frowned, his cold expression silencing Jia Hua.
It has to be said that Jia Hua inadvertently stumbled upon the truth. While Jia Hua was racking her brains discussing what to do with Factory Director Jia, Qiao Zhenjun was sweetly embracing Miao Fengying on the other side.
"Don't worry, my mom will definitely agree."
Miao Fengying nestled in his arms, a hint of doubt flashing across her face. If she really would agree, why hadn't anything happened for so long?
His face showed impatience, but his voice betrayed it all. "Zhenjun, I... I'm pregnant..."
After he finished speaking, there was no sound above his head for a long time. Miao Fengying carefully looked up at him, wondering if the sudden thunder had stunned him.
She had just raised her chin when her body suddenly trembled, and Qiao Zhenjun scooped her up in his arms. "Really?"
Miao Fengying composed herself and saw that his face showed no refusal, only surprise and immense joy, which put her at ease.
She thought...
"You wait here, I'll go home and tell my parents right away, you just wait."
After leaving Miao Fengying behind, Qiao Zhenjun rushed home.
The doors and windows were locked in the middle of the afternoon. Could he have gone out?
Qiao Zhenjun had just taken out his key and opened the door when Qiao Jianguo stood in front of him, looking flustered. "Dad, you're home?"
Qiao Jianguo straightened his shoulders and cleared his throat. "What's wrong? You finally know how to come home?"
Suddenly remembering something, Qiao Zhenjun, whose attention had been diverted, hurriedly asked where Jia Hua had gone.
"She went to your uncle's house. What's wrong? Why are you in such a hurry?"
"Fengying is pregnant, Dad."
"your?"
Qiao Zhenjun immediately became displeased. "What are you saying? If it's not mine, then who is it?"
Qiao Jianguo looked at his silly son and chuckled, "That's not necessarily true."
When Jia Hua returned from her parents' home with a worried look on her face, she saw Qiao Zhenjun pacing around, looking happy and excited, which seemed a bit abnormal.
"What are you doing?"
"Mom, Fengying is pregnant!" Afraid she'd ask whose it was, he quickly added, "Mine! It really is mine!"
"hehe......"
When Qiao Zhenjun saw that she and Qiao Jianguo were not speaking, he immediately adopted a posture of crying, making a scene, and threatening suicide.
"No, you have to agree. You already have a child. Do you want your grandson to be left to wander outside?"
"We have neither money nor a throne to inherit, so let us drift into exile. Besides, it's not certain whether we'll ever be able to."
Qiao Zhenjun was engaged in a fierce battle with Jia Hua and Qiao Jianguo at home, and didn't leave the house for several days in a row.
I was unaware of the rampant rumors circulating outside, but I knew that Director Jia had come in person.
"There are rumors that Zhenjun is getting girls pregnant outside. Is that true?"
Qiao Zhenjun was taken aback. "How did they know?"
Okay, now he knows it's true without them saying it.
Guo Zhixia and he were supposed to come together.
Ever since Qiao Zhenjun caused a scene at Xiaoyue's wedding, making them lose face, Guo Zhixia now keeps her distance from the Qiao family whenever possible.
But he had no choice. Jia Hua was his own sister. He didn't want to care about the Qiao family, but he couldn't ignore Jia Hua.
"Who told this?" Qiao Zhenjun said unhappily. "Isn't this going to ruin my reputation?"
Jia Hua slapped him hard on the back of the head, gritting her teeth, "Who? Besides you and that woman, who else knows about this! If you don't tell, it was her who leaked it!"
"impossible!"
"Impossible? This rumor says you got an adult pregnant, but it doesn't say whose pregnancy it is at all. Isn't that obvious!"
Qiao Zhenjun, with his neck stiff and a look of disapproval on his face, made Director Jia feel like he had a heart attack, so he simply turned his head away.
"This needs to be dealt with as soon as possible. Decide whether to marry or not quickly. If things escalate further, not only will your jobs be affected, but I will too..."
Jia Hua remained motionless in her chair until Director Jia left.
Qiao Jianguo swallowed hard. His brother-in-law's words were definitely not unfounded; he must have heard some rumors.
"Well, there's no other way... so why don't you just marry her..."
"real?"
Qiao Zhenjun's face was beaming with joy, which he couldn't suppress. Jia Hua felt a chill in her heart; this son was truly spoiled.
He's always been able to have whatever he wants, from the moon to the stars, and we've always done whatever he pleases.
This is how a major disaster was brewing...
As her mind gradually calmed down, Jia Hua made three requests to Qiao Zhenjun.
"Mom, you tell me, I can definitely do it."
"Okay. I agree to let you marry her, but the first condition is that you move out of your family home after you marry Miao Fengying."
Qiao Zhenjun was dumbfounded. Move out? Where would he live? "Mom, where am I supposed to move to?"
"Should I marry him?"
"Marry me! I'll marry you."
"Then let's hear the second request."
Qiao Zhenjun lowered his head helplessly and listened carefully to what she said.
Jia Hua looked away. "The second thing is that after you get married, you shouldn't go home unless there's something important to do."
"And the third one?" This time, it was Qiao Jianguo who couldn't help but ask.
"The third requirement is that you are not allowed to ask me or your father for money after you get married. If your salary can support us, then support us; if not, don't come looking for us."
Doesn't this mean he has to sever ties?
Jia Hua's lips curled into a smile. "I've already gone along with your wishes and agreed to let you marry me, so this should at least go along with my wishes to some extent. Don't agree? Then you can arrange the wedding yourself, I won't interfere."
Qiao Zhenjun's eyes widened. How could he be involved in organizing a wedding? He glanced at Qiao Jianguo, signaling him to put in a good word for him.
To his surprise, the other person looked away and didn't even glance at him.
With a quick thought, he agreed now. He didn't believe that once the woman was married into the family, given Fengying's intelligence, they wouldn't like this daughter-in-law, especially with the big, healthy grandson she gave birth to.
How could you bear to ignore him and his eldest grandson?
"Okay, I agree to everything!" Qiao Zhenjun hurriedly asked, "Now can you help me marry Fengying?"
Jia Hua's lips curled into a cold smile, "Fine, I'll help you marry..."
When Qiao Zhenjun told Miao Fengying that his parents had agreed, he subconsciously ignored the three conditions that Jia Hua had mentioned.
In his opinion, this was no big deal; his mother was angry now, but she would be fine in a few days.
"Really? Your mom and the others agreed?"
"Why would I lie to you? I really agree. My mom and the others will come to propose tomorrow. Just relax and wait to marry me."
Qiao Zhenjun was excited and hugged Miao Fengying, saying, "My darling, soon we can be together every day."
Miao Fengying smiled slightly. Yes, soon she would be able to live a good life too.
