Chapter 138 Having a Child Makes You Less Lonely



When Yan Yaru returned, her mother was sitting at the dining table, almost asleep.

Hearing the car, Aunt Wu quickly went to the dining table to wake her up.

"Madam, wake up! Miss is back."

After being woken up, Yan's mother was somewhat bewildered.

Where?

At this moment, Yan Yaru got out of the car wearing casual shoes and went into the entrance hall of her home to change her shoes.

"Mom, I'm home."

Hearing her daughter's voice, Yan's mother happily got up.

"Aunt Ni, Aunt Wu, quickly heat up the dishes."

Upon hearing this, the two quickly brought the dishes inside. Yan Yaru walked to the dining table and looked at her mother.

"Mom, have you eaten?"

Not yet.

Hearing this, Yan Yaru felt a surge of guilt.

"Sorry, a temporary customer has arrived."

Mother Yan shook her head.

"It's alright, sit down and rest, you must be exhausted."

Hearing her mother's words of constant concern warmed her heart, and she immediately took her mother's arm and acted coquettishly.

"Mom, it's so good to have you."

Yan's mother gently patted her daughter's head.

"Ya Ru, if you don't want to date or get married, you still need to have a child to keep you company. Otherwise, when your father and I get old, you will be very lonely, and there will be no one to inherit the company."

Yan Yaru was surprised by her mother's open-mindedness.

"Mom, what are you saying?"

"Mom is serious." She had come to terms with it. As long as her daughter left behind a child, she would have something to remember her by. Everyone needs something to hold onto in life, otherwise they wouldn't know the meaning of living.

Yan Yaru awkwardly let go of her mother's arm and uncomfortably tidied her hair.

When did you first come up with this idea?

Yan's mother sighed.

“Just now, I felt that with such a big house, after you and your dad go to work, it's just me all alone. I feel so lonely. If you want to have a child, you can have one sooner rather than later. I can still take care of it.”

Yan Yaru exhaled deeply.

"Mom, this is a big deal, you need to give me some time to think about it."

Mother Yan calmly shook her head. "Okay, let's eat."

Aunt Ni and Aunt Wu, who were heating up dishes in the kitchen, looked at each other, their hearts filled with the same sorrow as any parent.

Yan Yaru leaned back in her chair, having eaten and drunk her fill, and casually patted her stomach.

"I'm eating like I'm several months pregnant."

She couldn't help but laugh after she finished speaking. When Yan's mother heard her daughter's words, she also shook her head with a smile. Wu's wife and Ni's wife were also laughing heartily on the side.

Ji Yunfeng observed the growth of flowers at his company's flower base.

The person in charge of the flower base stayed by his side the whole time.

"Mr. Ji, the flowers available in September include chrysanthemums, dahlias, osmanthus, jasmine, canna lilies, and hibiscus. Among them, jasmine is a large tree and is not in this area."

Ji Yunfeng pursed his lips. "Hmm, how are the recent sales figures?"

Upon hearing this, Mr. Yang, the head of the flower base, immediately asked his secretary to bring out the data files.

"Take a look at this."

Ji Yunfeng stood still, reached out and took the document, and carefully looked through it.

"It's dropped sharply."

Mr. Yang said helplessly, "The economic situation is not good now, and everyone is short of money. As for flowers and plants, they are no longer necessary."

Ji Yunfeng pursed his lips and spoke.

"Yes, nobody's making any money, so the demand for this is really negligible."

Considering the current situation, Ji Yunfeng decided to hold a meeting at the base to hear the thoughts of employees from various departments.

"Go and have all the employees from each department gather in the conference room for a meeting."

General Manager Yang understood what he meant.

"Okay, I'll have Secretary Wu arrange it right away."

Ji Yunfeng nodded slightly.

"OK."

General Manager Yang turned to Secretary Wu and made careful arrangements. Secretary Wu nodded and then left.

Shen Shiyi thought that with the children all at school, the elderly at home must be bored during the day, so she made a phone call back.

The old man was somewhat surprised to receive a call from his granddaughter-in-law.

"Shiyi, what's wrong?" This was probably the first time his granddaughter-in-law had called him.

"Grandpa, I was just calling to ask, nothing special."

The old man smiled kindly upon hearing this.

"Hmm, are the babies good?"

Hearing the old man's words, Shen Shiyi stroked her belly, which was almost four months along.

"fine."

Considering his granddaughter-in-law's unusual profession, the old man gave her some serious instructions.

"Make sure to balance work and rest, and don't push yourself too hard. You and your child are the most important people, you know?"

Shen Shiyi smiled knowingly, "I know, Grandpa. You too, the weather is so unpredictable, you must take care of yourself and wear more clothes when you need to."

Hearing his granddaughter-in-law's caring words, the old man's eyes welled up with tears.

"Okay, Grandpa will listen to you. Whenever you want to come back, Grandpa will have someone pick you up. Don't drive yourself, it's not safe in the driver's seat."

"good."

Uncle Ning watched the old man make the phone call quietly, sensing his emotional fluctuations. He was also a little unsettled, and his eyes welled up with tears.

The old man has been a prominent figure in the business world his entire life, but it hasn't been easy for him; every step he took was arduous.

After the old man hung up the phone, Uncle Ning heard him sigh.

"Grandpa, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Grandpa Su waved his hand repeatedly when he realized that he had misunderstood.

"It's nothing, just a thought."

Hearing him say that, Uncle Ning was finally relieved.

"That's good."

The old man chuckled softly, then picked up his brush and continued his calligraphy. Uncle Ning smiled faintly, pursed his lips, and lowered his head to continue admiring the old man's calligraphy.

"Sir, your calligraphy has improved again."

Upon hearing this, even the wrinkles on Grandpa Su's face seemed to come alive.
