After Xiao Huai left, Liu Yucheng looked at Jiang Taohua in silence. Her face was rosy and shiny, becoming more and more beautiful. Her body also looked much fuller than before. It was obvious that she was living a happy life.
He should be happy for her...but he felt so sad.
She came to their home when she was nine years old, a few years younger than him. He watched her grow from a delicate little girl into a graceful young lady.
She was gentle and kind, and her every move attracted his attention. He didn't know when he started to care about her.
When he saw her being bullied in the mansion, he couldn't help but stand up for her.
After her mother kicked her out of the house and she disappeared, he was extremely anxious and felt like his heart was hollowed out.
It was then that he suddenly realized that he had fallen in love with her, rather than simply viewing her as his sister-in-law.
After finally finding her, he felt as if a treasure had been found again. Looking at her bright and beautiful appearance, he liked her even more.
While waiting for his graduation and hoping to marry her, he often dreamed of marrying her like a fool when he was helping her in the tavern.
He had originally planned to marry her after graduating from high school, but he didn't expect his mother to come find him, know his feelings for her, and then take him back home, forbidding him to see her for the rest of his life.
He was not discouraged at that time. He studied day and night in the academy, dreaming of persuading his mother to let him marry her after graduating from high school.
But things are unpredictable, and he failed the exam.
He was sad at home for a while. When he finally got over the shadow of failing the exam, he plucked up the courage to come to Qingshan Town to find her despite his mother's obstruction. When he wanted to confess his love to her, he heard the news that she was already married.
After hearing the news, he felt as if the sky was falling and the earth was splitting. He came to her door in a daze, wanting to verify whether the news of her marriage was true.
When he reached her door, he was afraid to go in, imagining that the news of her marriage was false.
But the scene he saw when he walked into the yard made him despair. Not only was she married, she was also pregnant.
He felt heartbroken instantly. The woman he loved was really married, and he was too late.
After a long while, Liu Yucheng finally said, "Do you like him?"
Jiang Taohua looked at his painful expression and seemed to understand something. She nodded and said, "Since I chose to marry him, I naturally like him."
When Liu Yucheng heard this, his heart felt like it was cut by a knife. It was so painful that he couldn't breathe. He opened his mouth and wanted to ask her if she had ever liked him.
But seeing that she is now married to someone else, there is no need to ask this question now. There are thousands of words in my heart, but in the end, all I can say is, "Taohua wishes you happiness."
Jiang Taohua nodded, "Okay."
After Liu Yucheng said this, he left. The matter was already a foregone conclusion and there was no need for him to stay here.
Watching Liu Yucheng leave, Xiao Huai felt relieved. Thinking of what Jiang Taohua had just said about liking him, he smiled and continued to make the crib.
Soon, it was the day for Jiang Taohua to give birth. Jiang Taohua didn't want to experience the pain of childbirth, so Pang Pang said, "Pang Pang, give me a pain-free pill on credit."
She has no points now and can only buy on credit.
"Okay." Pangpang agreed readily.
Today is Jiang Taohua's due date. Xiao Huai is very nervous and has called Aunt Zhang, the best midwife in town, over early in the morning, ready to wait for his wife to give birth so that she can deliver the baby.
As a result, as soon as Aunt Zhang was found, three loud crying sounds of babies were heard in the house.
Xiao Huai's heart skipped a beat and he immediately ran in. When he entered the house, he saw that his wife had already given birth to three children.
Xiao Huai stood there in a daze.
Aunt Zhang, who followed him in, was also stunned, her face full of shock and disbelief.
In her decades of working as a midwife, she had never seen a woman give birth to children so quickly on her own, and triplets at that!
It took a long time for Xiao Huai to come back to his senses and react. He hurried forward to ask if Jiang Taohua was feeling unwell.
Jiang Taohua smiled and said, "I'm not feeling unwell anywhere. Husband, please take the child and wash him."
She took pain-relieving pills, and giving birth was as easy as a hen laying an egg. She didn't feel any pain at all.
Xiao Huai finally breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the three children. Their faces were wrinkled and ugly, like little old men.
Aunt Zhang also came to her senses at this time. She walked forward, took a look at the children, and asked Jiang Taohua in surprise: "Madam Xiao, did you give birth to these three children yourself?"
Jiang Taohua nodded.
Aunt Zhang stopped talking and looked at the three children. She found that all three were sons. Aunt Zhang's expression instantly became subtle. She thought to herself, this young widow is really amazing. Not only did she give birth to three children herself, but she also gave birth to three sons. This is simply amazing.
Aunt Zhang was stunned for a moment, then instructed Xiao Huai to wrap the three children with something, and then helped him clean the children.
After finishing all this and receiving the payment, Aunt Zhang said a few auspicious words to Xiao Huai, then left to spread the news that Jiang Taohua had given birth to three sons for Xiao Huai.
Soon, the news that Jiang Taohua had given birth to three sons for Xiao Huai spread throughout Qingshan Town. Everyone started talking about it, praising Xiao Huai for his ability and Jiang Taohua for her fertility.
Even the noodle shop owner who often spoke ill of Jiang Taohua in secret couldn't help but praise Jiang Taohua when she learned that she had given birth to three sons in one breath.
Jiang Taohua didn't know that everyone was praising her for being awesome. She watched Xiao Huai carefully changing the baby's diaper. She asked Xiao Huai proudly, "Ah Huai, am I awesome? I gave birth to three boys for you in one go."
