After her death, her husband's family would curse and swear while thinking about how to raise money to marry the next daughter-in-law. I heard that some families would even sell the daughter born to the previous daughter-in-law in order to raise enough money...
Zhou Lanfang has heard so many horrifying stories that she now feels disgusted and horrified by the idea of favoring boys over girls.
She herself was a victim of the idea of favoring boys over girls, so how could she be willing to let her daughter become the next her?
So she simply decided not to have a second child.
"If the Zhuang family insists on having a son, then..." Zhou Lanfang closed her eyes and said cruelly, "Then I can only divorce Zhuang Xiaobai."
When Qiao Qingqing said the last sentence, she subconsciously covered Xiaoxiao's ears and looked at her with disapproval.
"I understand your feelings, but going from one extreme to another is not the best solution. We all see how Zhuang Xiaobai treats you. Maybe he is wavering between you and me, but even for Xiaoxiao, I hope you can hold on until the last moment."
It is not a capital crime to waver between 㫅齂 and your lover.
Love is important, but why isn't love important?
"We have become parents ourselves. Ask yourself, if our future children want to break up with us for their other half, can we bear it? It is normal for people to have different opinions. Do we have to erase all the good in each other just because of the difference? Should we end the relationship hastily? If something is broken, we know to repair it and continue. But if there is a crack in the relationship, why don't we think about repairing it, but just throw it away?"
Compared with Xiaoman, Lan Fang is much more stable and careful.
But precisely because of this, Lan Fang is sensitive and delicate, and is more likely to get stuck in a rut.
From the relationship between her and Lu Xun, it can be seen that Lan Fang prefers to be alone rather than in the wrong relationship. She cannot accept the fact that Lu Xun's love for her is flawed and conditional, and she has higher requirements for her partner.
Therefore, when the relationship between the couple was in crisis, Lan Fang chose to escape and confront Yi Dao, instead of trying to communicate.
Qiao Qingqing's heart-stirring words made her feel a little embarrassed, but also made it easier for her to face reality.
Out of respect for her, Lan Fang would listen to her finish her words even if she was dissatisfied.
Therefore, Qiao Qingqing waited until she had almost digested it before speaking again.
"The issues between you and Zhuang Xiaobai should be discussed by both of you, because only face-to-face communication is the best way to solve them. However, as a woman, I understand what you care about, and based on this, I will give you a suggestion."
Zhou Lanfang then raised her head, tears in her eyes: "Sister Qingqing, it's not that I don't have patience, I'm just... too scared."
Hearing this, Qiao Qingqing's eyes suddenly softened.
At this moment, the other people at the table seemed to sense the strangeness between them and cast their concerned glances over.
Qiao Qingqing didn't want to disturb others, so she winked at Yao Xiaoman, indicating that she should take Xiaoxiao.
Yao Xiaoman understood immediately.
She stood up and gently coaxed Xiaoxiao to her side, then turned slightly to block the inquiring gazes of others for Lan Fang.
Qiao Qingqing supported her lower back and slowly got up from her seat, pulled Lan Fang up, and turned into the bedroom.
After closing the door, Lan Fang's tears flowed like a faucet that had been opened.
She cried, "Sister Qingqing, you also know that my parents wanted to marry me off for my brother... In their hearts, I read so many books just to maximize my value when their son needs me!"
"I talked to Zhuang Xiaobai about this a long time ago. I said I don't want to be someone who can be abandoned at any time. He clearly promised me... Now, the Zhuang family is forcing me to give them a son. Doesn't that mean that my experience will be repeated on Xiaoxiao in the future?"
