The four words "no offspring" stimulated Fang's mother so much that her lost rationality gradually returned.
If you lose money, you can earn it again.
But now that her grandson is gone, her son Qiangzi doesn’t know if he will have a second chance to have a child.
Fang's mother took a deep breath and shook off Wang Cuihua's hand, "Tell me clearly what you mean!"
Wang Cuihua straightened her hair and said slowly, "What I mean is, your silver was taken by your son, and this is not the first time your son has stolen your silver.
Why haven't you learned your lesson yet?"
Wang Cuihua sneered and took off her disguise in front of Fang's mother.
Fang's mother gritted her teeth, but could do nothing about it.
She glared at Wang Cuihua, slammed the door and left.
As soon as Fang's mother came into the yard, several heads on both sides of the wall shrank back.
But she didn't see it.
Soon the whole Taohua Village knew that the Fang family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had fought again.
After hearing this, Aunt Li ran to Ying Xixi's house to complain.
"The Fang family is really in a mess right now. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have a small quarrel every day and a big quarrel every two days.
The Fang family is really not afraid of quarreling out the baby in her daughter-in-law's belly. Those two are not easy to deal with. It really proves the saying.
Evildoers will be punished by their own evildoers! "
Aunt Li's face was full of excitement about eating melon.
Ying Xixi smiled and picked up a sour plum to eat. "I can't say anything about the Fang family. The only thing I'm thankful for now is that I divorced Fang Zhiqiang and married Lu Ting."
"Yes, yes, although Lu Ting looks fierce, as long as he treats you well, that's all.
I think the Fang family mother and son will regret it sooner or later! Xixi, when they come to you crying, don't be soft-hearted! "
I don't know what Aunt Li was thinking about, but she didn't forget to remind Ying Xixi.
"Don't worry, auntie, I will definitely not be soft-hearted. I, ugh!"
Before Ying Xixi could finish her words, her stomach churned violently. She quickly covered her mouth and ran to the yard, holding onto a big tree and vomiting.
Aunt Li's eyes lit up and she ran out as well.
"Xixi, you're pregnant! Are you feeling nauseous or sleepy? I saw you eating sour plums just now. Do you like sour foods?"
Ying Xixi sighed, wiped her mouth, stood up and sat on the stone bench in the yard.
"Come to think of it, it seems to be true, Auntie, am I really pregnant?"
Ying Xixi touched her belly, her pretty face full of surprise and disbelief.
"It's most likely that you're pregnant. You should see a doctor. Wait here while I get the village barefoot doctor for you."
After Aunt Li finished speaking, she ran out and bumped into Lu Ting who was returning.
Lu Ting walked up to Ying Xixi and asked, "What happened? Why is Aunt Li so flustered?"
Ying Xixi smiled and touched her belly, "Aunt Li helped me get a doctor."
"Are you asking for a doctor?! What's wrong with you?!"
Lu Ting suddenly became nervous. He held Ying Xixi and looked her up and down, pretending to pick her up and carry her back to the house.
But when he saw Ying Xixi's rosy and shiny complexion and her smiling face, he saw that she didn't look like she was feeling unwell.
Lu Ting's gaze fell on Ying Xixi's lower abdomen, and a guess arose in his mind.
"Wife, are we having a child?!"
Surprise and caution flashed in Lu Ting's narrow eyes.
"Don't get excited yet. You'll know when the doctor comes to see you."
Soon Aunt Li came with a barefoot doctor. The doctor took Ying Xixi's pulse, stroked his beard, and nodded, "Congratulations, you're pregnant. It's been more than two months."
"Yes, yes! Xixi, you have a child! You're a mother now! Hahaha..."
Aunt Li was even happier than Ying Xixi and Lu Ting, the two parties involved. She put her hands on her hips and laughed out loud.
Lu Ting was confused. The tall man stood there in a daze, so happy that he was stupid.
Ying Xixi smiled and took out some silver and gave it to the doctor. "Thank you, doctor. I'm pregnant. Please don't tell anyone."
The doctor took it with a smile, "Don't worry, I'm taking money from someone and keeping it a secret. And it's best not to let too many people know about this during the first three months of pregnancy."
Aunt Li nodded repeatedly upon hearing this. "That's what they said. Xixi, don't worry. The doctor and I are the only ones who know about your pregnancy. We won't tell anyone."
The doctor told Ying Xixi and Lu Ting some more things to pay attention to during pregnancy before leaving.
Fortunately, the Lu family’s new house was built at the foot of the mountain, so the doctor did not meet anyone from the village on the way here or there.
Seeing such a tall man like Lu Ting standing there grinning foolishly, as if he had not yet come to his senses, Aunt Li greeted Ying Xixi cheerfully, left the space to the young couple, and left.
Lu Ting had indeed not yet come to his senses, he still seemed to be dreaming.
"Lu Ting, you're a father now, are you happy?"
Ying Xixi reached out and pulled Lu Ting's sleeve.
Lu Ting came back to his senses, stared at Ying Xixi for a while, then threw his head back and burst into laughter.
"Hahaha! I'm a father, hahaha! I have a child!"
Ying Xixi was amused by Lu Ting's reaction and started laughing too.
In ancient times, people valued offspring, so it was normal for Lu Ting to react so strongly.
"Wife, thank you for giving me a home and thank you for carrying my child."
Lu Ting leaned over and hugged Ying Xixi tightly, and sincerely thanked her in her ear.
Ying Xixi patted Lu Ting on the shoulder and said, "You're welcome. We are a family."
"Yeah, family."
The Lu family was having a great time, while the Fang family was arguing so loudly that the roof was about to be blown off.
Fang's mother finally saw clearly that relying on her son was nonsense.
While she is still alive, her son can come and steal her pension money.
Then when she dies, wouldn't it be enough to just dig something up and bury her?
It would be better for her to have some money in her hands, so she would feel more at ease!
After realizing this, Fang's mother planned to wait for Fang Zhiqiang to come back in the evening and ask him directly for the money.
Fang Zhiqiang lost again today. After losing thirty taels, he was really out of money. He borrowed one hundred taels of silver from the gambling house to continue gambling, but still lost.
He lost so much that his eyes turned red, but he continued to borrow, continued to gamble, and continued to lose.
When he came to his senses, he had already borrowed five hundred taels of silver from the gambling house and lost it all!
Now it means that he is in debt of five hundred taels, and he is penniless. Even his mother's only thirty taels of silver were stolen and lost by him!
"Brother Fang, considering that you are our friend and we have known each other for such a long time.
So the boss is willing to give you some more time to raise the five hundred taels of silver."
The people in the gambling house said so, and Fang Zhiqiang thought that he could extend the time to half a year or a year.
But then the other party said, "One month is enough, right? With Brother Fang's talent, earning 500 taels of silver a month is more than enough.
I asked the boss to give me some face. After all, other people who borrowed money from the gambling house only had ten days to pay it back."
