At this time, Chen Xuanxuan felt that her life was very comfortable.

There was food and drink here, and she didn't have to do housework, nor did she have to be nagged by her parents-in-law. She could also enjoy the meticulous care of her mother, and the 360-degree care of the servants. Chen Xuanxuan felt that her current life was really wonderful.

It was much better than the life she had imagined at the beginning.

"My dear, come here, I made you the old hen stew. It's the best black chicken soup, you should eat it quickly. Especially in this soup, I also put a little ginseng, which is good for your health. If you eat such a bowl, I guarantee you will be plump and white, and you won't feel tired when you are pregnant."

Hearing the mother say this, Chen Xuanxuan raised her head and looked at the plate in her hand, and found that there was indeed a large bowl of black chicken stew on the plate. She hesitated for a moment, and then nodded in agreement.

"Okay, mother, you stand up and put it there for me, I feel that this thing is very hot."

Old lady Liu nodded quickly.

After all, Old Lady Liu had given birth to so many children, so she had quite a bit of experience in this regard. She already had an idea in her mind about how a pregnant woman should take care of her body and what she should eat and drink.

"My dear, after you have eaten this bowl of black chicken stew, I will make you some glutinous rice cakes, right?... I remember when you were little, you loved eating glutinous rice cakes the most, right?"

Chen Xuanxuan nodded when she heard it, and then she said with a smile on her face, "I not only like to eat glutinous rice cakes, I also like to eat fried sesame balls covered with thick layers of sesame seeds."

When the old lady Liu heard it, she squinted her eyes and smiled, "Then I will make it for you right now!"

Chen Xuanxuan ate and drank in the old lady's house every day. She didn't have to worry about anything, didn't have to be beaten or scolded, and didn't have to do those dirty, hard and tiring work. Therefore, she was in line with the idiom, a broad mind makes the body fat.

Chen Xuanxuan looked back at home and quietly weighed herself. She found that she weighed more than 120 pounds.

You know, she is only 160 cm tall.

She is not tall, but she weighs so much. Old lady Liu has been saying that she is a symbol of blessing. She

has a round face and a round body, which makes her look festive.

However, after weighing herself and looking in the mirror, Chen Xuanxuan felt that she was gaining weight too fast.

How many months is it now?

She is only 6 months pregnant. Otherwise, she would become such a round and fat person. It would be a bit unbearable for ordinary people, right?

One time, Chen Xuanxuan got angry and told her mother that she wanted to lose weight. Then her mother scolded her and said that she didn't know how to cherish herself. What's the point of losing weight for a woman?

No matter what a woman looks like, she is beautiful! Besides, which man doesn't love her?

...

"... Dad, I don't know why, but I suddenly miss my wife. I want to go to Huang's house to see her."

Gu Yanzhang had just finished saying this when his father got angry.

"Look, what are you looking at? What's so good about her? If you have that much time, you might as well rest at home or go out and earn more money! Your wife is just such a thing..." "

Son, sometimes I don't want to say bad things about your wife, but as your father, I have to say it. Because I really want to remind you not to put too much energy on her. Such women are unreliable. Who else can really serve you except me, your father?!"

Gu Yanzhang suddenly heard his father say such words, and he thought at that time that his father was really shameless.

Dad serves him?

Who serves whom? !

Whenever Gu Yanzhang was alone at night when it was quiet, he would always think of his childhood unconsciously.

In his childhood, he could say that he was quite unfortunate. Because his father had a really bad temper. If something didn't go his way, he would lose his temper with his mother and himself, and beat them up.

He still remembers that his sisters were basically beaten to death by his father and the people in the village.

There was also a sister, who could be said to be his sister. Just after she was born from his mother's belly, his father actually lifted up the sister and threw her heavily to the ground in front of him.

Not only did he throw him to death, he also gritted his teeth and said, "I will throw you to death today, you loser, so that you will never dare to be reborn into our family again next time!!"

Whenever Gu Yanzhang thought of his father's ugly face with gritted teeth when he killed someone, he would shudder unconsciously. He felt that his father was too cruel and ruthless.

The things that happened later also directly or indirectly proved that his intuition was right.

Gu Yanzhang is now in his thirties, but he can still remember clearly that when he was young, that is, when he was five years old, he still had a sister and a brother.

However, during those ten years, his brothers and sisters died one after another.

When he was more than 10 years old, almost half an adult, he had become the only child in the family.

Thinking of this, Gu Yanzhang couldn't help but raise his head and said to his father with a serious face, "Dad, please don't say such things, okay? You are not old yet. You are still capable in your sixties or seventies. Don't think that you are old and useless..."

"Dad, I heard from the people in the village that your good days are still ahead! We should grit our teeth and keep working hard to earn more money for our grandchildren. Then when they are successful, can study, or even pass the imperial examination and become high-ranking officials, we, as fathers and grandfathers, may even be praised by people within a radius of ten miles..."

Some honest people living at the bottom of society actually care most about their face.

They may not have any ability, but what they like most is to hear others envy them, or constantly compliment them and curry favor with them.

Every time someone praises him highly, Gu Yanzhang's father will feel dizzy.

He feels that he has a lot of face and that his life is valuable.

At this time, Gu Yu'an, when he heard his son say that if he worked harder to raise his grandson to be promising, he would be courted by people within a hundred miles, he immediately felt relaxed and happy from head to toe.
