Chapter 71 I want to discuss something with you
Li Man decided to stay with An Xin tonight, as Chen Xiaohui was newly pregnant and it was not good for her to stay up late.
Tan Xiyuan was comforting Chen Xiaohui when her phone suddenly rang.
She took it out and saw that it was a call from her mother-in-law.
She gets annoyed whenever she sees her mother-in-law's phone call; every time her mother-in-law calls, she asks about the child.
She wants children too, but she can't get pregnant. What can she do?
When they first got married, she and Lu Feng wanted to enjoy some time alone, so they always used contraception. They had a happy time together for three years, but when they wanted to have a child, they couldn't get pregnant.
Seeing that their friends had children, the couple became anxious. When they went to the hospital for a checkup, they discovered that the problem lay with Tan Xiyuan.
When Tan Xiyuan started treatment, it was incredibly tough. She went to the hospital every day, took medicine like it was food, and her arms were covered with countless needle marks. People who didn't know her might have thought she was using drugs.
She underwent this treatment for three years, but still couldn't conceive. Western medicine was ineffective, so she turned to traditional Chinese medicine.
She used to be most afraid of drinking Chinese medicine. The sight of the dark, murky soup made her feel nauseous. But in order to have a child, she drank Chinese medicine for several years.
I've taken Chinese medicine and had acupuncture, but there's still no sign of pregnancy.
With no other option, the couple had to undergo in vitro fertilization (IVF).
However, several IVF attempts all ended in failure.
Over the years, Tan Xiyuan has endured countless hardships in her quest to have a child.
But her mother-in-law didn't ask about the process, only about the result. When she saw that she couldn't get pregnant, she often gave her a hard time and spoke to her in a sarcastic tone.
"mom."
Although she was annoyed by her mother-in-law, Tan Xiyuan still greeted her respectfully when she answered the phone.
"Where are you?" came the mother-in-law's displeased voice from the other end of the phone.
"I'm at the hospital with my friend, what happened?"
"Come back for a moment, I have something to discuss with you."
"Mom, when did you arrive? Why didn't you tell me beforehand?"
My mother-in-law lives in her hometown and doesn't live with them.
"Do I have to let you know in advance when I go back to my own home?"
The old lady never considered herself an outsider.
Tan Xiyuan rolled her eyes at her phone and said, "I know, I'll go back now."
Her mother-in-law's attitude towards her is getting worse and worse.
"What's wrong? Has your mother-in-law arrived?"
The voice on the other end of the phone was very loud; Riemann, who was standing next to him, could hear it.
“Yes,” Tan Xiyuan replied. She looked at Chen Xiaohui and said apologetically, “Xiaohui, I’m so sorry, my mother-in-law is here, and I have to go back now.”
"It's okay, you should go back quickly. If she scolds you, just ignore her," Chen Xiaohui said, wiping away her tears.
Everyone knows that Tan Xiyuan's mother-in-law has a bad temper and is difficult to please.
Ultimately, it's because Tan Xiyuan can't conceive that her mother-in-law treats her so badly.
Because she couldn't give birth, Tan Xiyuan didn't dare to speak loudly and suffered a lot of mistreatment from her mother-in-law over the years.
Tan Xiyuan smiled helplessly, "I know, don't be sad. An Xin is still young. Talk to her slowly, and she will accept it."
"Okay, I know. You should go now," Chen Xiaohui replied, sniffling.
...
When Tan Xiyuan returned home and opened the door, the three people sitting in the living room all looked at her.
Upon seeing this commotion, Tan Xiyuan felt inexplicably uneasy and quickly greeted them, "Dad, Mom, you're here."
The old lady nodded, slightly raising her chin, adopting the demeanor of Empress Dowager Cixi. "Sit down, I have something to discuss with you."
