"Whether Wangshu gives birth to a boy or a girl, our family treats them equally. Even if she doesn't have any children, it's the same. A woman's value is not measured by the number of children she gives birth to. This is too sad."
Zhou Jingchuan originally planned to remain invisible, but when he saw his wife being attacked, he couldn't stand it anymore and stood up to protect his wife.
In his eyes, it doesn’t matter even if Zheng Wangshu can’t have children, he will still treat her well for the rest of her life. This is a man’s responsibility.
Since you are married and have feelings for each other, you are planning to be together for life. How can you be shaken by such a small thing?
Wang Xuemei stared at Zhou Jingchuan in amazement. She had never heard such a statement before. What man married a wife for anything other than having children? Why marry a wife if you can't have children? You'll have to spend money on it, so you might as well live on your own.
"Okay, stop being so stubborn. If you can't have a baby, you can only say you don't want one. Wangshu is a disobedient child, so don't spoil him. Discipline him if necessary, but don't let him grow up crooked."
"Don't worry about that, Second Aunt. Wangshu is pregnant now."
As soon as these words were spoken, the old couple immediately widened their eyes. It was previously rumored that Zheng Wangshu was infertile, and there was no movement in her belly after being married for so long. Unexpectedly, after changing men, she is now pregnant.
The old lady even grabbed her granddaughter's hand and asked, "Wangshu, are you really pregnant?"
Zheng Wangshu nodded, "Yes, it's been more than three months."
"That's great, that's great! I was saying it, how could my granddaughter be infertile? These people are talking nonsense, aren't they afraid of retribution?"
Wang Xuemei was also surprised. Seeing these people protecting Zheng Wangshu so much, she felt very uncomfortable.
"It's just a pregnancy, who wouldn't be pregnant? Who knows if it's a boy or a girl..."
The old man couldn't stand it anymore and shouted, "As an elder, can't you act like an elder? You keep gossiping here like a gossipmonger. If you don't want to stay, then get out and don't spoil everyone's fun here."
Zheng Wangshu had no intention of arguing with Wang Xuemei. This kind of woman is always short-sighted. In her eyes, being able to give birth to two children is probably the most boastful thing in life. To put it bluntly, it is quite pathetic.
When Zheng Jianguo saw his wife being scolded, he gritted his teeth and went out with his wife and children.
What's the big deal? Now that they're gone, it's theirs to eat however they want.
Wang Xuemei went to the next room and kept sulking.
"I was so blind to marry you. Look at how successful your brother is, and then look at you. You can't even protect your wife. Your parents don't treat me as a human being. It's just a few pounds of pork. What's wrong with giving it to my family?"
After saying this, she began to sob, as if she had suffered a great injustice.
When Zheng Jianguo heard this, he also thought it made sense.
"Okay, stop crying. After they leave, you can give your parents as much pork as you want. Why bother with this momentary pleasure? Just ignore them."
Without the second wife's family present, the atmosphere during Zheng Wangshu and his friends' meal was noticeably more harmonious.
Zheng Guiying hadn't been home for a long time. Seeing that her second brother's family was becoming more and more excessive, she couldn't help but give them a few words of advice during dinner.
"Mom and Dad, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but how can my second brother continue like this? He's so soft-hearted, he might as well just become a son-in-law to the Wang family. He's so eager to empty our family's pockets and give it to the Wang family."
Hearing their daughter talk about this, the old couple sighed helplessly.
"Oh, don't mention it. Sending gifts in the past is a small matter. Now the money in the family has been borrowed almost all. The money for the Wang family's young man to marry a wife was taken from our family. Even the retirement money your mother and I saved was stolen by your second brother."
Zheng Wangshu paused holding the chopsticks. If this were the case, it would not be like giving birth to a son, but a debt collector.
Zheng Guiying even threw down her chopsticks on the spot, "Dad, you have to take care of this. If you don't, our family will be named Wang. You have so many people in the family, and you don't leave a penny. What if something really happens? Besides, how can you give your and Mom's pension money to them? What will you do when you get old? My second brother is like this, can you expect him to provide for you in your old age? Oh, by the way, how much did he steal from you?"
Zheng Guiying became angrier and angrier as she spoke, and she wished she could run to the next room and have a quarrel with Zheng Jianguo and the others.
Old Mr. Zheng didn't even dare to look at his daughter. Some of the pension money was saved by him and his wife, and some was given by Zheng Jianjun and Zheng Guiying. The old couple was reluctant to spend it and put it in a cloth bag.
It had been hidden in the cabinet all along, but I never expected it to be stolen by Zheng Jianguo and others.
As parents, no matter how wrong their son and daughter-in-law were, what could they do? They couldn't call the police and have them arrested.
"All three thousand dollars were stolen."
The old lady sighed and had no appetite. If her youngest daughter had not come back, they would have been too embarrassed to tell her about this.
"Did you steal the three thousand yuan and give it all to the Wang family?"
Zheng Guiying was going crazy. How hard was it to save 3,000 yuan? It was fine if he had a job, but if he had been farming, he would have saved up that much in over a decade. And yet, his second brother actually stole so much money and gave it all to the Wang family. How could he be so selfless? If you didn't know, you'd think he was a child of the Wang family.
"Yes, the son of the Wang family found a girl from the city. She asked for a high bride price, and she spent a lot on miscellaneous things."
Zheng Wangshu raised an eyebrow. If the Wang family's son wasn't so well-off, why would a city girl marry him? Perhaps he was being scammed for the bride price.
"No, we can't just let this go. I'll go get my second brother."
Zheng Guiying lost her appetite and ran out to call Zheng Jianguo from the next room.
Zheng Jianguo looked impatient when he came over.
"What do you want me to do? Don't you want to eat with us?"
"Brother, you're already a grown man, how could you steal my parents' pension and give it to the Wang family? Three thousand yuan, given their family's situation, can they ever pay it back in this lifetime? We don't care if you want to spend your earnings on your wife, you can spend it however you want, but isn't it a bit too much for you to steal my parents' money and give it to your wife?"
Zheng Guiying became more and more angry as she spoke, and her brows were tightly furrowed.
Zheng Jianguo didn't expect that his younger sister would know about this, and he couldn't help but glare at his parents.
"Xuemei isn't a stranger. His brother needs money, and we have it. What's wrong with lending her some? You just don't treat her as your own. She gave birth to two boys for our family. Don't you have even a little shame?"
Zheng Wangshu, standing by, thought his second uncle was completely out of his mind. What kind of evil wind had Wang Xuemei blown into him? She had cerebellar atrophy.
It's really unfortunate to have a son like this.
"If you want to borrow, then borrow it. Don't borrow with my parents' money. My parents' money was given by my eldest brother. My eldest brother gave the money to my parents to spend, not for you. Can you please have some shame?"
How thick-skinned do you have to be to say something like that? You stole your parents' pension money and you still think you're right?
