While it's shameful to talk about using sperm donors, it's not uncommon.

The Bangchui Mountain in the novel "White Deer Plain" is where women go to the mountain to "borrow" sperm from men in infertile families.

Some people, worried about the quality of the seeds they borrowed, would seek out seeds from close relatives or friends.

For example, in "White Deer Plain", Bai Xiaoyi is the third son of Bai Jiaxuan, the head of the Bai family, and he cannot have children. So his grandmother, Bai Zhaoshi, finds the youngest son of the farmhand Lu San, Tuwa, and says, "Your third sister-in-law has no children, so she needs a virgin boy to sleep with her for two nights."

The story goes that a young boy was used to lure the child, but the boy was already a teenager at the time. Sure enough, Bai Xiaoyi's wife became pregnant and gave birth to a son.

Now, Zao Hua's mother-in-law is asking to borrow a seed, firstly because Xiao Leizi is too old to be properly raised, and secondly because, as long as no one spreads the word, the borrowed seed will be considered a child of the Yan family!

No one can question it!

Yan Guodong had neither a question nor an opinion.

Although Sister-in-law Zaohua is his wife, he prefers men. Marrying her was more about allowing him to hide his true sexual orientation and integrate into society normally.

The son agreed to borrow sperm, but whose sperm to borrow became a problem.

First, the person must be a member of the same family as Yan, so that the children born will not have disordered bloodlines.

Secondly, this person must be able to keep secrets, otherwise his family will suffer a double loss.

After much thought, I still couldn't find a good candidate.

Finally, it was Yan Huigang who, with a slightly embarrassed blush, coughed twice, drawing the attention of both mother and daughter to him.

Yan Guodong's eyes lit up; there was no one more suitable than the person in front of him!

If the meat is rotting in the pot, what difference does it make whether it's a son or a younger brother?

Once Zao Hua's mother-in-law understood what her husband meant, she instantly flew into a rage and reached out with her calloused hands to grab the old man's face.

At the same time, he started cursing, spitting all over his face.

"You old bastard, you shameless scumbag! Haven't you been eyeing that little bitch for a long time?"

whoosh—

Two bloody scratches appeared on his face.

"I'm telling you, you're always following that little slut around, aren't you two hooking up already?"

whoosh—

Two more bloody scratches appeared on his neck.

"I'll beat you to death, you incestuous bastard! You actually cheated on your mother and son, today I'll have God strike you dead..."

Yan Huigang initially felt embarrassed and guilty, so he tried to defend himself against his wife's onslaught.

Later, his face and neck were scratched by his wife's hard fingernails, and the pain was burning. He finally couldn't bear it anymore.

Snap—

A hard slap landed on Zao Hua's mother-in-law's face.

The woman, who had just been crying and screaming, fell silent instantly.

Yan Huigang leaned closer, glaring with his yellowish eyes, and asked fiercely, "Then tell me, who are you going to borrow a seed from?! Or would you rather my family line end and I die without anyone to visit my grave and burn paper money for me?"

"You're still going crazy with me? If you weren't a barren thing, having a son would be like having none at all, would I be acting like this?"

"Pooh!"

"You ungrateful wretch! If you keep causing trouble, I'll divorce you!"

Zao Hua's mother-in-law's mind was racing, she couldn't think straight, and she could only subconsciously retort, "This is a new society, divorce is not allowed..."

"Hmph! You can't divorce your wife, but you can at least get a divorce! I'm divorcing you! Let's see where you can go after that!"

He threw down a few harsh words, put his hands behind his back, and stormed out, slamming the door behind him.

Zao Hua's mother-in-law seemed still reeling from the recent events. Staring at the empty doorway, she grabbed her son's sleeve, crying, "My son—what kind of fate is this—"

Yan Guodong, however, thought his father's idea was excellent. With his father at home, he could go out with peace of mind.

Well, I heard that Pan Jixian from Panjiazhuang used to have affairs with men. I've run into Pan Jixian a few times, and I wonder if I'll have a chance...

A surge of excitement welled up inside him. (Like a fly rubbing its hands together.)

"Mother, let's leave it at that. We should keep the good stuff within the family. It's still a member of the Yan family."

Seeing her son leave in a hurry, Zao Hua's mother-in-law was momentarily bewildered.

————

It's okay if you can't figure it out right away; you'll figure it out eventually.

Three to five days later, Zao Hua's mother-in-law, looking like a defeated rooster, said to her husband with her head down, "That's it then, but you have to swear to me that once you have the child, you have to break up with that little bitch."

Yan Huigang readily agreed, but looking at his withered and haggard wife, who resembled a rotten apple, and then at his daughter-in-law washing clothes in the yard, with her slender waist, plump hips, and fair skin like a ripe peach, he couldn't help but sneer inwardly. "Do you think you can have your way of doing this?"

The family of three made up their minds, but none of them thought to ask their daughter-in-law, Chen Zaohua, if she agreed.

Although Chen Zaohua felt that her in-laws had been acting strangely these days, especially her father-in-law, who always put meat on her plate at the dinner table and looked at her with a smile, she figured it was a good thing that no one was picking on her or scolding her, so she didn't think much of it.

One night, her husband went out drinking and didn't come back until late. For the first time ever, her mother-in-law let Xiao Leizi sleep in her room, leaving her alone in the room.

Chen Zaohua deliberately left the door open for her husband, while she herself went to bed early.

However, she didn't sleep soundly, always afraid that her mother-in-law would come up with some new tricks to torment her son.

As she pondered this, she drifted off to sleep.

Half-asleep, she suddenly felt someone enter the room, and she instinctively thought it was Yan Guodong returning.

After a long day of work, she was a little tired, so she didn't open her eyes. Instead, she turned over and mumbled, "You're back."

The dark figure froze instantly as she spoke, then resumed its movements and deftly locked the door.

He tiptoed to the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed) and carefully observed Chen Zaohua's face by the light of the cool moonlight streaming through the window.

His arched eyebrows were thick and dark, and his long eyelashes fluttered like little fans, constantly teasing his heart. He had a straight nose and full, rosy lips.

Honestly, even though she's over thirty and has a son, there are few in the entire Quanshui Village who can compare to her in terms of looks and charm.

It's truly unexpected that Yan Huigang, in his old age, would have such good luck with women.

Yan Huigang's breathing grew heavier, and he stretched out his large, knuckle-protruding hand, heading straight for Chen Zaohua's full breasts...

Chen Zaohua's mother-in-law was not asleep; the flames of jealousy in her heart had begun to burn fiercely.

She knew that her husband and daughter-in-law were committing an illicit affair in the west room, just one room away, but she had no choice but to accept it and even cover for them.

Thinking of this, and looking at Xiao Leizi sleeping soundly beside her, she pinched Xiao Leizi's tender thigh without hesitation.

"ah--"

A scream pierced the night sky.
