Mr. and Mrs. Shen were stunned. What? Xiujuan is pregnant?!
No way…
Although they thought she was most likely just lying to Old Mrs. Lin, the old couple's eyes were immediately fixed on Lin Xiujuan's belly.
Her belly is flat, so it’s hard to tell whether she’s pregnant or not, but it’s not impossible!
After all, Lin Xiujuan is not yet 40 years old this year and can still have children.
"Xiujuan, you...are you really pregnant?" Old Mrs. Lin couldn't believe it.
Her daughter is not young anymore, is she really pregnant?
She kept glancing at Lin Xiujuan's belly with her little eyes.
"Mom, I'm not young anymore, but I'm not old. This child was conceived accidentally, and I can't just abort it, so I'll just keep it. So you better be careful."
Old Mrs. Lin immediately took two steps back. She was a little afraid that she might really lose Lin Xiujuan's child, so she dared not pull it anymore.
"Okay, I won't drag you down, but you need to tell me why you haven't been back to visit for so long? Do you still consider us a family?"
"Mom, every time I go back home, you ask me for money. Jianlin has told me about this several times. If I continue like this, what if he divorces me? Aren't the benefits you get from the Shen family enough? If I get divorced, you won't get a penny!"
Old Mrs. Lin originally wanted to complain, but she didn't expect that Lin Xiujuan's words hit the nail on the head.
Mrs. Lin thought that made sense. She came here to ask for favors, not to make her daughter and son-in-law divorce. If they divorced, where would she find someone as promising as her son-in-law?
If the Lin family wants to gain benefits from the Shen family, they have to win over this girl. With her daughter whispering in her son-in-law's ear, she doesn't believe that she won't get any benefits.
Old Mrs. Lin figured it out and stopped scolding. Instead, she took Lin Xiujuan's arm affectionately and said, "Oh, Juan'er, I didn't expect you to be so amazing. You're pregnant again? This is the sixth child you've given birth to for the Shen family, right? You're a great contributor to the Shen family!"
As she said this, she looked at Old Man Shen and Old Lady Shen who were standing by, "My dear relatives, don't you agree? My daughter has given birth to several children for your Shen family, and they are all outstanding!"
Old Mrs. Shen smiled and said, "Yes, Xiujuan is indeed a great contributor to our family, so my old man and I treat her like our own daughter."
"It's my duty. Xiujuan is so capable. If we don't treat her better, our family won't be able to stand it!"
Old Mrs. Lin smiled especially kindly, and took Lin Xiujuan's hand and continued earnestly, "Xiujuan, don't blame me for being blunt. I am just like that. I say whatever is on my mind. It's really because you haven't visited me for so long, and I miss you so much."
"As for me, I worry every day about whether Juan'er is doing well in her husband's family and whether she is being bullied. I can't eat or sleep because of worrying about her. Look around, besides your family, who else in this world would care about you like this?"
Lin Xiujuan, "..."
Isn’t this a bit too much?
Her family cares about her. Haha, how dare you say that.
This family of her parents is not even comparable to her husband's family. When she first got married, her family of her parents only regarded her as a disgrace and ignored her. Only she knew how hard her life was.
However, the old couple of the Shen family really treated her as their own daughter, allowing her to experience the warm family love that she had never felt before.
