In her past life, Lin Min was forced by her adoptive parents to marry in her sister’s place. Unwilling to wed a disabled man, she turned to her childhood sweetheart for help to escape the wedding—o...
Chapter 1175: Apology
All the guests gave Mr. Mo their sincere blessings.
He lived to be over seventy years old and finally had children and grandchildren. Everyone was happy for this respected old man.
Listening to the guests' blessings, Mr. Mo was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling.
Chen Xiaojun looked at the little baby in Lao Xixi's arms and said, "My Qiheng is really lucky. He is only four months older than his little nephew, haha."
"Aunt, it doesn't have to be a nephew, maybe a niece."
Tang Min corrected her with a smile.
Wang Zhiyuan looked at Tang Min's belly and said mysteriously, "Doctor Xiao Min, based on our experience, you are pregnant with a boy."
Tang Min looked at Wang Zhiyuan's kiss with doubt, and asked indifferently, "Auntie Wang, can you tell?"
Aunt Wang Zhiyuan said confidently, "Of course, the pregnancy position is different for boys and girls."
"It seems that when I was pregnant with Xiaomin, it was different from when I was pregnant with Aze."
Molly spoke up.
Yang Yun, who also gave birth to a boy and a girl, also expressed her opinion, "Yes, there is a difference."
Several other middle-aged aunts who had given birth also joined in the discussion.
The group of male comrades had no chance to get a word in, but Gu Jingchuan, Tang Liye and others got a very useful piece of information from the chat of a group of women: there was a high possibility that Tang Min was pregnant with a boy.
Tang Liye, who never liked listening to women's gossip, listened very seriously that day.
He listened to those women who were about his age, all of whom were experienced in commenting on Tang Min's belly, saying with certainty that she was pregnant with a boy. Tang Liye's mouth corners began to rise uncontrollably.
"Jingchuan, do you like boys or girls?"
Tang Liye was in a good mood and asked Gu Jingchuan with a smile on his face.
Gu Jingchuan replied, "Dad, I like them all."
"Do I have to choose?"
Tang Liye asked relentlessly.
Gu Jingchuan expressed his thoughts without hesitation, "Girls are younger and more obedient, while boys are too difficult to manage."
"I'll help you manage it."
Tang Liye heard what Gu Jingchuan said.
Her eyes lit up slightly, and she looked at Gu Jingchuan expectantly and said, "Xiao Min gave birth to a boy, I will take care of him and help you discipline him."
"ah?"
Gu Jingchuan had a strange look on his face. Is Lord Yue favoring boys over girls?
Tang Liye explained, "Xiao Min promised me before that if she gave birth to a boy, I would take care of him."
Seeing Gu Jingchuan's complicated expression, Tang Liye's face darkened, "What do you mean?
Are you worried about me taking care of the child?"
Tang Liye expressed displeasure at Gu Jingchuan's hesitation.
To make his father-in-law angry, Gu Jingchuan hurriedly explained, "No, Dad, of course I am relieved, I'm just worried that you don't have time."
"When I have time, when my child is one or two years old and weaned, I will file for retirement and stay at home to take care of the child full-time."
Gu Jingchuan could only nod, "䗽."
Gu Jingchuan was naturally happy to have his father-in-law help take care of the child, but he was afraid that his father-in-law would bring up the issue of the child's future surname.
This is his first child, and no matter whether it is a boy or a girl, he wants the child to have the surname Gu.
Only by adding his last name can it be truly explained that he, Gu Jingchuan, is a relative.
Tang Liye didn't say anything else, so Gu Jingchuan was alarmed for nothing.
After the full moon banquet, Tang Liye drank a lot of wine and was in a good mood. While in the car, he talked a lot.
Tang Jianye couldn't help but complain to him, "Brother, why are you so happy?
This isn't your grandson's full moon party."
“Almost there!”
Tang Liye narrowed his eyes and looked at Tang Jianye, boasting, "It's almost time, my grandson will be born soon."
Tang Jianye rolled his eyes and replied, "Brother, don't show off in front of us. I'm getting married soon, Jingyue is getting married."
The second brother compared himself with him again, Tang Liye's face was red with a hint of black, "What are you always comparing yourself with me for?
I am just enjoying my joy. This is a happy event for our Tang family. You just need to be happy with me. Why are you always comparing?"
Tang Jianye muttered, "I am very happy, but I always feel like you are showing off and demonstrating to me."
"I don't want to bother with you."
Tang Liye closed his eyes and rested.
At the request of Wang Zhiyuan's father, Tang Min went back to the Mo family to take Wang Zhiyuan's father's pulse and prescribe medicine.
Wang Zhiyuan's father still needed to take medicine to consolidate his health. Because he couldn't contact Tang Min for a while, he later took the same medicine she prescribed last year.
This time they finally met, and Tang Min prescribed him a new health-preserving prescription. Comrade Wang was very grateful, and carefully put away the prescription. He looked at Tang Min with gratitude on his face, "Doctor Xiao Min, we will go back to our hometown tomorrow. When you go back to your hometown in the future, you must contact us. Our family will invite you to dinner in the county town."
Tang Min responded politely, "Tuo, we'll see you back home if we have the chance."
Mr. Mo and Wang Zhiyuan's mother were chatting in the main hall. Wang Zhiyuan's mother and Mo Li went to Chen Xiaojun's room to see the children. Mo Bei was busy packing up the gifts he received that day.
Tang Min stayed by the stove for a little too long, and was afraid that the tiny smoke would suck her body away, so she got up and went outside to get some fresh air.
As soon as she entered the yard, Wang Zhiyuan followed her out.
He walked over to Tang Min and started chatting with her, "Doctor Xiao Min, it's a bit cold outside."
Tang Min glanced at him sideways and said, "Not bad."
"You haven't been back to your hometown for a year?"
Wang Zhiyuan asked casually.
"Yes, one year."
Out of politeness, Tang Min continued the conversation.
"Xiao Min, I'm engaged."
Wang Zhiyuan looked at her and spoke.
Hearing this, Tang Min suddenly smiled and looked at him, "Really?
Congratulations."
Finally someone accepted it.
"Thanks."
Wang Zhiyuan stood there with his hands in his pockets, staring at Tang Min's profile.
"sorry."
He hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "I'm sorry about what happened last year."
He said, "I've always wanted to find an opportunity to say sorry to you and Gu Jingchuan."
Tang Min seemed not to have expected him to say that and looked at him in surprise.
Wang Zhiyuan said sincerely, "Before, because I liked you, I was self-righteous and did things that hurt you. I always feel guilty."
Tang Min said nonchalantly, "It's all in the past."
"Xiao Min, can you forgive me?"
Facing Wang Zhiyuan's pleading eyes, Tang Min said calmly, "I have forgotten everything. My Jingchuan should have forgotten it too. We live a happy life and rarely think about those unpleasant things."
She said, "Since we're engaged, we won't be married long. Let's just let the past go."
"Thanks."
Wang Zhiyuan looked at the quiet and elegant woman in front of him. The haze in his eyes dissipated and a smile appeared.
He once liked the woman in front of him, and he felt that it was worth it.
Gu Jingchuan sent Tang Jianye and Tang Liye home, then came to pick up Tang Min and Molly.
As soon as he walked through the courtyard gate, he saw a man and a woman standing with their backs to the gate, looking at the small garden on the south side.
