Chapter 933 Cancer? Really! But I Won't Die 18
Once the house was settled, Ning Yan sent the three of them back to work, while she went shopping with Xue Yuwei.
"When you two get married, will your family send any guests?"
“Of course I’ll come, but don’t worry, sister. The bride price is just a formality. Our family is quite well-off, and we won’t ask for any bride price money.”
Ning Yan nodded in satisfaction, "That's perfect, since I wasn't really planning to give a bride price anyway."
Xue Yuwei: ……
"I never really intended to take it. My ex-boyfriend gave me some breakup money when we broke up, enough for me to live comfortably for the rest of my life."
"If Ning Qiang finds out the truth in the future, I'll divorce him if he wants to; otherwise, we'll just make do."
It's not that she's naive; she just tells her sister-in-law everything.
It's not that her sister-in-law is so amazing; the moment they met, she said that her baby was three months along and that the baby had no relation to her brother whatsoever.
What can she do?
She had no choice but to be honest and tell the truth without hiding anything. If the other party wanted to expose her, they should do so as soon as possible, so she could find a new father for her child.
But her sister-in-law didn't. She even said that as long as she cooperated, Ning Yan would keep it a secret for her for life.
She could find another partner, but the pregnancy couldn't be faked. Rather than cause trouble later, she decided to stick to the status quo. So, that's how it ended.
When Ning Yan is alone, she can stay in the house for one or two months without spending a penny. But when she has someone with her, she gets interested in shopping and buys whatever she can get her hands on.
She also bought several sets of clothes for her "eldest nephew".
"Sister, we don't even know if the baby is a boy or a girl yet. What if we buy all the colors for a baby boy and the baby can't wear them?"
"What do you know? Children's clothes don't differentiate between boys and girls; both can wear them." She said that if it's her nephew, then it's her nephew, and there won't be any difference.
Xue Yuwei: "It's as if you've given birth."
Ning Yan: ...I've never given birth? You can't imagine how many children I've given birth to!
“I have never given birth, but I raised Ningqiang.”
"Okay, you have experience, so you can decide. Buy it if you want."
Ning Yan waved her hand, "What's the point of buying anything else? I'm a poor wretch, I don't have much money. Buying all this is already too much."
Xue Yuwei said, "Then I'll buy two outfits for my sister as a thank you gift."
To be honest, she wouldn't dare take advantage of her sister-in-law at all, and besides, she wasn't short of money, so it would be better to return the favor.
After returning from the mall, Xue Yuwei took her shopping spoils back to her new house. She still needed to furnish the house, and it was impossible to rely on her sister-in-law to buy things. She had to complete the furnishing herself.
As for Ning Yan, she also went back to her home.
I bought this three years ago. It's a large four-bedroom apartment, but it wasn't a ready-built house. I took possession of the property two years ago, and then spent more than three months decorating it. After that, it was left to air out until I moved into the city this time.
It doesn't matter if you don't have money in your hand; you can sell one gold brick in the space and have more than you can spend.
After the Ning family bought a new house, Ning Shiya insisted on holding a housewarming banquet, even though the name on the property certificate wasn't his. He just wanted to make it lively. The villagers, along with the old couple's relatives, filled twelve tables at a hotel. It wasn't a bad deal, mainly because there were many relatives who gave generous gifts.
Of course, all the money went into Ning Yan's pocket.
She wouldn't bother if there was no profit to be made.
At this point, Xue Yuwei was actually more than five months pregnant.
But she said she was more than four months pregnant. She had controlled her appetite well and her pregnancy was going well, so no one suspected anything.
After asking her opinion, the elderly couple decided to hold the wedding directly in their hometown, firstly to save money, and secondly to receive gifts.
After all, their family used to only give money away, but their son's wedding is a once-in-a-lifetime event, so naturally they want to get some money back as gifts.
Ning Yan was going back for the banquet. To be honest, the food at the rural banquet was much better than in restaurants. It was a rare opportunity, and she definitely wanted to join in the fun.
The wedding was delayed for several days. After the wedding, Ning Yan rushed the three of them to make money.
Until one day, when she wanted to eat sour soup dumplings again, Wang Yong'an would still send her messages, but she wouldn't chat with him like before, and most of the time she would just reply with "um", "ah", or "oh".
In order not to bother someone, Ning Yan chose another restaurant serving sour soup dumplings.
Unfortunately, she was somewhat disappointed. The ingredients at this restaurant weren't as plentiful as Aunt Wang's, and the vinegar they used wasn't as sweet and sour as the one Aunt Wang chose. Even the dried shrimp didn't taste as good as Aunt Wang's. She would never eat there again, no matter what.
For the rest of the time, she just stayed home and did nothing.
Ning Shiya and her husband kept track of their daily purchases and made roughly the same amount of money each day. She only needed the couple to give her a fixed amount of money each day and then she didn't interfere.
On the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, Xue Yuwei called her, saying that she had "accidentally" fallen and was about to give birth. Ning Yan happily went to the hospital.
The three of them were all busy with their own things and didn't even have time to come to the hospital, so the choice of someone to accompany her during childbirth naturally fell to Ning Yan.
She gave birth quickly, as if she was in a rush. The elderly couple called her at 8:45 in the morning, after they had all gone to set up their stall, and the baby was born at 11:30.
"Where are Xue Yuwei's family members?"
Ning Yan quickly raised her hand and said, "Here! Here!"
"Come and report the birth of your child, a boy, weighing seven pounds and two ounces."
Ning Yan took the child, thanking him as she looked the chubby little boy up and down. "Oh, Mom, he's really ugly. Did he take after your dad?"
A little while later, Xue Yuwei was pushed out.
Did you call Ning Qiang?
Xue Yuwei is in good condition, which may be related to her quick recovery. "It's over. I accidentally fell and didn't have time to notify them. It's not too late to get vaccinated now."
Ning Yan: "...You're really something. Go ahead and hit him. The child isn't crying or making a fuss. I'll go buy you some food. Or maybe I'll order takeout and bring the baby's father over."
It's good that the child was confirmed to be Ningqiang's by accident.
Xue Yuwei chuckled. "Alright, then I'll trouble you, elder sister."
Ning Qiang was not sent back along with the takeout. He returned on his own after delivering his last order. Half a year later, Ning Qiang weighed at most 150 pounds and was already quite slim.
As soon as they arrived at the hospital, he excitedly hugged the baby and grinned foolishly, "Honey, this little guy is just like me!"
Ning Yan: ……
Ning Yan was truly deaf to reason, and fled as soon as Zhang Huaihua arrived.
After she left, Zhang Huaihua discussed with her husband, "We still have to sell braised food every day, so why don't we let that brat take care of the child? She's good at that job."
Xue Yuwei's lips twitched. "No, my sister-in-law is still sick. Taking care of the child is too tiring. Let's not let her come."
"What's so tiring about it? Is selling braised food from dawn till dusk more tiring than this?"
Ning Shiya said, "That's right, she's an aunt now, what's wrong with letting her see the child? Don't be shy, just let her come."
