When Jiang Shufen went out, she saw the military wives chatting in groups of three or five. Most of them were talking about going to work in Ren Rongzheng's factory. Their faces were full of anticipation, as if they could make a lot of money if they went there.
Jiang Shufen was afraid that she would be stopped by these people, so she had to hide and dodge all the way to Jiang Linhai's house.
Now Ren Rongxue has been discharged from the hospital. After being taken back, Jiang's mother has been letting her lie in bed. It can be said that she has taken care of her meticulously, especially in front of Jiang Linhai.
"Xiao Hai, you've been busy all day in the military area and you must be tired. Go and rest quickly. Don't worry about Xiao Xue. I will take good care of her."
"Thank you for your hard work, Mom."
Jiang Linhai has been a favorite of the Jiang family since he was a child. He was raised in the palm of his hand by his family. Now that he has become the head of a military region, he is even more determined to be the glory of the family. So when Jiang's mother came, he was not allowed to do any housework.
"Mom, it's still early. I won't rest yet. I'm going to the store. When you come, I have to buy some daily necessities for you."
"No, why waste that money? Mom brought all the daily necessities from home, no need to buy new ones."
"Those are too old, Mom. It's hard enough for you to come here and help take care of Xiaoxue. Of course, I have to take good care of you as well. Don't worry, I'm the battalion commander now, after all. My salary is enough for me. I'll go buy them now. Mom, don't get tired."
"Hey, Xiao Hai, take your time. You don't have to buy anything too expensive. Mom can make do with anything and save the money for raising the kids later."
"I know, Mom."
Watching Jiang Linhai walk out, Jiang's mother was so proud that she showed off to Ren Rongxue while folding clothes:
"See? Our little Hai is perfect in every way. He's handsome, smart, capable, and filial. There's really nothing wrong with him. It's worth it for me to run all the way to the mountains to give birth to him. I didn't even have a decent midwife and I almost died from a heavy hemorrhage."
"Run away to the mountains to secretly give birth to a son?" Ren Rongxue asked this question in a sarcastic tone.
"Of course not. When I was young, my gestation was not good and the first five babies I gave birth to were all girls. At that time, the villagers laughed at me to death. They always stabbed me in the back and said that I couldn't give birth to a son. I wanted to give birth to a son and let them see!
Did they give birth later? Those people started talking again, saying that even if the girls mentioned above gave birth to sons, the sons would not be very good and would either beg on the streets or become hooligans and be arrested by the police.
Bah, those mean-spirited people didn't wish us well, and what happened? Our Xiaohai joined the army, and not only did he join the army, he became a battalion commander.
Originally, our Jiang family had no status in the village, especially before we had a son. Everyone could spit at us. But now? Who doesn't bow and scrape when they see us? It's all because my son has become successful.
When Jiang's mother said this, she was really very proud and started talking nonstop.
"Our Jiang family is truly blessed by our ancestors. You are also lucky to be able to marry our Xiao Hai. Our Xiao Hai is truly excellent in every way. He is so outstanding!"
Hearing Jiang's mother praising her like that, Ren Rongxue couldn't help laughing. She was just a battalion commander but she was so proud. If Jiang Linhai got promoted again in the future, wouldn't she be so inflated?
Seeing Ren Rongxue like this, Jiang's mother knew what she was thinking. She glanced at her coldly and said, "To be honest, if I were to choose a daughter-in-law, I really don't like you, but if Xiaohai likes you, I can't do anything about it.
You are now pregnant with our Jiang family's child. When you give birth to a son, it will be considered a contribution to our Jiang family. For the sake of my grandson, I will tolerate you for now."
"Wait until I give birth to my son? How do you know I'm pregnant with a son?"
At this point, Jiang's mother immediately stopped folding clothes, came up to Ren Rongxue, lowered her voice, and said happily and mysteriously, "I'll go find a master. The master said that you're pregnant with a boy, no doubt about it!"
"Did you ask someone to tell your fortune? Who did you ask? What kind of master do you know?"
"Don't worry about it. He's a very powerful master anyway. He said you're pregnant with a son, so for the sake of my grandson, I'll forgive you for talking back to me in the hospital without any family discipline."
In Jiang's mother's view, as long as Ren Rongxue gave birth to a son for the Jiang family, it didn't matter to her even if she suffered a little grievance.
After listening to what Jiang's mother said, Ren Rongxue was about to respond when she heard Jiang Shufen's voice outside: "Is Sister Rongxue home?"
Ren Rongxue felt annoyed when she heard Jiang Shufen's voice, but there was nothing she could do because the person had already come in.
"Hey, is this my sister-in-law coming over?"
Jiang Shufen was particularly surprised to see Jiang's mother there, and then she quickly said politely, "When Xiao Jiang first joined the army, you rented a house near the military region to take care of Xiao Jiang. The whole military region knows about it. You are truly a great mother!"
Hearing this, Ren Rongxue couldn't help but despise him in her heart. It turned out that when Jiang Linhai first joined the army, Jiang's mother came to take care of him for a while. She was really spoiled.
"I can't call myself a great mother. This is all for my own child. Isn't my daughter-in-law pregnant? I, an old woman, should hurry over to take care of her."
"Thank you for your hard work, sister-in-law. Sister Rongxue, you are so lucky to have such a good mother-in-law!"
Ren Rongxue glanced at Liang Shufen. If this blessing was given to her, would she want it?
"Why did Sister Jiang come to see me all of a sudden?"
"Didn't I hear that you were hospitalized to protect your pregnancy? I came here to see how you are doing now after I knew you were discharged.
"Big sister, you are so thoughtful. This time it was just a minor accident. The doctor checked and said that my grandson is very healthy now. I heard the fetal heartbeat, boom, boom, boom, it was so energetic."
"Grandson?" Jiang Shufen immediately grasped the key point of Jiang's mother's words, "Is it a boy?"
"Yes, a boy." When Jiang's mother said this, she couldn't stop smiling.
"Did the doctor say that?" Jiang Shufen asked curiously. "Isn't the supervision very strict now? Sister-in-law, you are so powerful that you can even pry open the doctor's mouth?"
"Don't worry about whose mouth I pried open. Xiaoxue is pregnant with a son."
"That's really cause for celebration. Congratulations, sister-in-law. You've got what you wanted. In the future, you'll definitely be as good as his father. No, you'll definitely be even better than his father and become a great leader."
"Thanks to your good wishes, my eldest sister, when my eldest grandson is born, you must come to celebrate the full moon and first birthday celebrations."
"Okay, okay, I definitely will!"
Seeing the excitement on Jiang's mother's face, Ren Rongxue felt really disgusted, but also more panicked. The happier she was now, the more sad and angry she would be if the child was aborted in the future.
As an old woman with deep-rooted feudal ideas, if she had a miscarriage during pregnancy, wouldn't she strangle her to death?
