"I have no idea."
Lu Chen continued wiping his hands as before.
He stared intently at Ning You: "If Youyou doesn't want me to know, then I won't know anything."
There's nothing that needs to be thoroughly investigated.
Sometimes, living without clarity is a great blessing.
Ning You on the bed frowned, vaguely feeling as if she was about to wake up.
Because of her physical condition, Ningyou didn't sleep very soundly. In addition, she was under a lot of psychological pressure, and woke up after only a short while.
She slowly opened her eyes, her expression dazed.
"Youyou, you're awake?" Seeing Ning You open her eyes, Lu Chen asked with concern, "How are you? Does it still hurt?"
Ning You stared blankly at the ceiling, clearly still a little dazed.
Slowly, consciousness returned, and my eyes gradually regained focus.
Recalling what happened before she fell into a deep sleep, Ning You's eyes widened, and her expression slowly turned to terror.
Her hands groped all the way down to her thighs, struggling to get up: "My legs... my legs..."
Ning Wan quickly stopped her: "Are you crazy! The wound was just stitched up, what if it reopens?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Ning You felt the pain in her lower body.
She was stunned.
Tears welled up in her eyes.
She stopped resisting and let Ning Wan help her lie down again.
“I…” Ning You looked at Ning Wan with tears in her eyes, her face filled with both excitement and disbelief: “I…I…”
Ning Wan leaned down and whispered in her ear, "It's different now. Everything is different from the last life."
As soon as Ning Wan finished speaking, the tears that had been welling up in Ning You's eyes slid down her cheeks and fell into her hair.
She held Ning Wan and sobbed softly.
Ning Wan wiped away her tears: "Don't cry, you're not allowed to cry during postpartum confinement."...
...
Lu Chen remained silent throughout.
She quietly stayed in the corner, tidied up her washbasin, and left the room.
He knew that only Ning Wan could give Ning You a sense of security right now.
What he needs to do, and has been doing for a long time, is to wait...
...
Hearing the commotion in the room, Su Lin also came in.
Upon noticing Ning You crying, Su Lin exclaimed, "Oh my dear girl, you can't cry during postpartum confinement! What if you ruin your eyes or go blind from crying?"
After saying that, he glared at Ning Wan fiercely, his mouth agape, ready to scold her again in the next second.
But Ning Wan seemed to have guessed what she was going to say.
Before she could speak, he retorted, "Get lost!"
Su Lin was absolutely furious.
That brat's ability to infuriate people is exactly the same as it was back then.
He's practically a debt collector.
Unlike Ning You...
...
When Ning You was mentioned, Su Lin suppressed her anger and put on a loving mother's expression.
She walked to Ningyou's bedside and sat down, pretending to be serious.
With a concerned look, he took her hand and said, "Youyou, you and Xiaolu are still young. Once you've recovered, hurry up and have a second child."
Ignoring Ning You's surprised expression, Su Lin continued, "Aim to have two children within three years, so they're close in age and can be raised together. That way, things will be easier for you in the future."
"Are you out of your mind?" Ning Wan asked. "Everyone says that after the founding of the People's Republic of China, it is forbidden to become a spirit. How did you, an old relic from the Qing Dynasty, manage to survive until now? Is it your family that has the throne to inherit, or the Lu family? So you, this lackey, are rushing to worry for the emperor."
"Ning Wan!" Su Lin stood up and shouted, "I'm your mother!"
"You son of a bitch, it's not like I haven't liked you for a while. But I didn't expect that after 5 years, you'd still be the same." Ning Wan's face was full of anger: "Have you forgotten how that old woman forced you to have a son? Have you forgotten how your body got ruined? My sister just gave birth, and you're already so eager to say these things to her?"
Ning Wan was really angry.
She also couldn't understand it.
Ning Jianshe and Su Lin only had two daughters.
Back then, in order to get her to have a son, the old lady of the Ning family desperately urged Su Lin to get pregnant.
After having Ningyou and Ningwan, she later became pregnant again and found out it was a girl, so she had an abortion.
This happened several times, until Su Lin lost her fertility.
The old lady was so angry that she suffered a cerebral hemorrhage and passed away a few years later.
Otherwise, with such a domineering, shrewish, and unreasonable mother-in-law, Su Lin, who couldn't give birth to a son, would have long since met the tragic fate of being a divorced woman.
Su Lin herself had suffered from the torment and oppression of the old feudal era and was a victim of the patriarchal ideology.
I can empathize to some extent.
But unexpectedly, her current actions are even worse than those of Old Madam Ning...
...
"……mom."
On the hospital bed, Ning You struggled to sit up, leaning back slightly.
Ning Wan quickly helped her adjust her position by placing a pillow under her head.
The wound on my lower body is a little painful.
Every movement causes friction against the skin and flesh.
But Ning You was grateful that the pain allowed her to stay awake and rational.
To distinguish between this life and the previous life.
"Mom," Ning You said calmly, "I only plan to have this one child in this life. If you can't accept that, while you and Dad are still young, you can have a younger brother through IVF. Wanwan and I both agree."
Ning Jianshe, standing at the bedroom door, turned pale and then flushed.
It was dazzling and colorful: "Youyou, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Su Lin was so angry at Ning You's words that she burst into tears.
