Xiao Bei pushed open the door, and everyone looked at him.

"Xiao Bei, you're so late, you'll have to drink three cups as punishment later."

Chen Cai echoed Xu Jiang's words.

"We agreed to meet at 12 o'clock, and it's only 11 o'clock now. Am I late?" Xiao Bei said, greeting everyone.

Jiang Yue looked at Xiao Bei. Actually, all of Lu Yu's good brothers were good-looking and stood out in a crowd. But Xiao Bei's appearance was somewhat different from theirs.

Xiao Bei's skin was fairer, and he had a somewhat ambiguous, righteous yet wicked air about him.

I heard Xiao Bei is in the navy, someone who's often at sea, how come he's so fair-skinned?

Jiang Yue suddenly felt her hand being held. She turned her head and saw Lu Yu looking somewhat jealous.

She rolled her eyes at Lu Yu.

"Lu Yu, Yue'er." Xiao Bei smiled and sat down on the sofa, greeting Lu Yu and Jiang Yue.

"Brother Xiao Bei".

When Lu Yu called out "Xiao Bei," and heard Jiang Yue call him "Brother Xiao Bei," his jealousy intensified.

Jiang Yue greeted everyone with a smile and chatted with her sister-in-law.

The room suddenly became extremely lively.

Before long, the state-run restaurant delivered the food.

Everyone put the food on the wood-fired stove.

Lu Yu took the food out of the steamer again.

Chen Cai went to the next room and brought out a case of Moutai liquor.

"Brother Yu said, we won't leave until we're drunk tonight."

This meal lasted for more than two hours.

Jiang Yue and her sister-in-law had already finished eating and were watching the men chatting and laughing.

"Baby, are you going shopping tomorrow?"

Hearing Chen Yu's words, Jiang Yue nodded.

I plan to go tomorrow morning.

"Tomorrow morning, I'll call your brother, and we'll go together."

Chen Yu said with a smile.

"OK."

After talking for a while, Chen Yu asked about other things.

"Baby, Grandma said you want to go to university. I asked my mom to find a lot of information at the old house. Take a look at it when the time comes..."

"Thank you, sister-in-law."

My sister-in-law's mother is a high school teacher, and a very good one at that.

"Please thank Aunt Chen for me."

"We're all family, no need to be so polite."

Chen Yu looked at Jiang Yue's belly and said, "You're preparing to study now, so won't it be a year or two later if you have a baby?"

Jiang Yue nodded.

"I've been using contraception before, but now I'd like to let nature take its course."

It's not like we can't afford to raise a child; we can hire someone to help take care of him/her.

She's not very busy right now.

Chen Yu was somewhat surprised to hear her sister-in-law's words.

She had assumed her sister-in-law would have her baby a year or two later. Unexpectedly, she'd changed her mind.

Grandpa and Grandma would be so happy if they knew.

"Letting nature take its course is indeed a good thing. Your brother still wants a daughter, but what if it's a son?"

Chen Yu complained.

Hearing her sister-in-law's words, Jiang Yue couldn't help but laugh.

She knew that her sister-in-law had indeed given birth to another son, which upset her brother.

A few years later, the one-child policy was implemented, and the eldest brother only had two sons. His wish to have a daughter was never fulfilled, which was his biggest regret.

“Sons and daughters are the same,” Jiang Yue said with a smile.

Chen Yu then brought up Jiang Yue's work.

"Bao'er, you're really amazing! You managed to close such a big deal. Your third uncle praised you so many times when he came back home..."

Hearing her sister-in-law's words, Jiang Yue replied modestly.

"Actually, it was by chance. I originally wanted to buy a house."
