Chapter 71 Let's Discuss Something
Shu Yu was trying to reason with her, but the old lady slapped her and said, "Are you trying to kill me? You're so young, and you're not even married yet, and you're already saying things like 'men and women in the bridal chamber.' Aren't you ashamed to say such things?"
Shu Yu sighed and said, "Grandma, aren't you focusing on the wrong thing?"
"In short, it's not necessarily Daya's problem." Shu Yu still wanted to continue explaining, otherwise, if even Daya's own relatives thought that she couldn't have children, how isolated and helpless would she be?
"Grandma, think about Master Yu in town. He's so old, with a whole bunch of wives and concubines, yet he can't have a single child. Is he just that unlucky that none of his wives and concubines can have children?"
Shu Yu quietly leaned close to the old lady's ear and whispered, "And let me tell you a secret, Mr. Yu's wife is having an affair and is already a month pregnant. This proves that his wife is fine, right?"
The old lady stared wide-eyed in astonishment. "Yes, really?"
Can a man have a problem if his wife can't have children?
The old lady felt that the beliefs she had held for so many years had undergone a complete transformation, leaving her somewhat bewildered.
Shu Yu said, "If Zhang Shu is willing, he can go to the clinic with Daya."
The old lady quickly waved her hand, "That definitely won't work."
Shu Yu didn't say anything more. This was a matter between Daya and her husband, and it didn't seem appropriate for them to discuss whether Zhang Shu was the problem or not.
Just then, Da Hu and San Ya came in carrying several large peaches, and the two of them stopped talking about it.
Da Hu stuffed the peach in his hand into Shu Yu's hand, smiling with pursed lips, "Second Sister, eat up. The peaches that Eldest Sister gave you must be delicious."
You already know it's delicious before you've even tasted it?
Shu Yu looked at the peach in her hand; it was indeed large and round, and looked quite good.
Sanya also handed one to the old lady, whispering, "Grandma, here you go."
The old lady glanced at the little girl. In the past, she would look at her like a mouse seeing a cat. Why was she so bold now?
Just as she was thinking this, Sanya handed over the peaches and then took a few steps back to stand next to Shuyu.
The old lady shook her head. Just now, when they were talking about Daya, she remembered something. "Erya, Grandma wants to discuss something with you."
"Grandma said." Shu Yu took a bite of the peach, and sure enough, it had thin skin, was juicy, and delicious.
"Look, you're back now and reunited with your family, that's great news. Why don't we find some time to invite Da Ya and the others home so they can get to know each other better, so they won't be strangers when they meet in the future? We don't need many people, just our own family: your eldest uncle's family, your third uncle's family, and your fourth aunt's family. As for your maternal uncle's side, we'll just pretend we're not related from now on."
Shu Yu had no objection, "That's only right."
“Alright, but we’ll deal with this when your father gets back. I heard from Dr. Xu that in a couple of days, your father will be able to go home and recuperate. He’ll just need to go regularly to get his medicine and change his dressings; he won’t need to stay at the clinic.”
"Okay, I'll do as Grandma says."
The old lady smiled so much that the wrinkles around her eyes crinkled together. She stood up cheerfully and said, "Alright, then get some rest early tonight. Tomorrow morning, I'll take you to the village chief's house first thing. You've been back for a few days, and we haven't had a chance to meet him yet."
If I'm going to live in the village in the future, I'll need to know which way the village chief's door opens.
After the old lady finished speaking, she cleared away the bowls and chopsticks on the table, and Shuyu took the basket back to the room.
But when she came out again, Da Hu blocked her way.
