"Mom, let me tell you something."
Song stopped her needlework.
"My second aunt is pregnant."
Song was stunned for a while, "Your second aunt is pregnant?"
"Well," Zhao Xiaoyu looked closely at her mother's facial expression, which was first shocking and then desolate, "Mom, you..."
"I didn't."
"Mom, to be honest, even if you can have a baby now, I don't really want you to."
Song's eyes widened...
"You are thirty years old, not young anymore. Look at the women in our village who give birth in their twenties, and those from other villages, many of them die of dystocia. To be honest, if my second aunt was my biological mother, I probably wouldn't let her take the risk of giving birth. The risk is too great."
"But there is..."
"Yes, everyone wants to have a baby even if they are pregnant, but I think it's right to have a baby to carry on the family line. First of all, you have to save your own life. For example, who do you choose between the baby and me?"
"It's you."
"That's it, mother. Let's not force it. You are more important than the child."
"Xiaoyu!"
"You'll be busy in a couple of days. When Xiao Lei and I have a baby, you can help me take care of it."
"Well, mom will help you take care of the child. I don't want to care about the child anymore. You know your own body condition. It's so cold. You don't have to do any housework. You've fallen into the river twice. Your body is no longer strong enough.
I have long given up hope for a child. It would be great if your second aunt could give birth to more children for the Zhao family."
If you didn't look so sad, she would believe it.
"Mom, to be honest, I think children are not everything for us women. Look at how well we live now. We have food, clothes, and servants to serve us. Think about what life the Zhao family lived in the past. We had to get up early and work late, but we didn't have enough to eat or wear warm clothes."
Song wiped the corners of her eyes and said, "Yes, life is better now..."
"Besides," Zhao Xiaoyu leaned close to her ear and lowered his voice, "How good is Dad to you now? Dad is so worried that you will think too much after you know it, so he asked me to persuade you.
As for people, there are always some things that we don’t like. Second uncle’s family is in turmoil, and so is first uncle. If you ask them whether they want a son or a good day, they will definitely choose a good day. Just look at how hard they try to send their son to our family.
"I know what you want to say. Don't worry, Mom is not sad. I am waiting for you to get married and give me a big fat grandson. Sometimes I think it's okay not to have a son. At least you don't have to marry out and live under the mood of your mother-in-law."
That's true, this girl is very filial, and there's nothing she can do when old men and old women throw tantrums, especially when her grandmother is like this. For a woman, getting married is like reincarnation.
She is envious, but not jealous. She lives a good life now and is content.
Xiao Lei treats him as her son. Isn't it nice for the family to live together?
What about the sons of the eldest and second brothers? Well, if her child is like this, she would rather have another daughter. Especially the second brother's, she is not gossiping, but none of the three children are decent.
Hothouse wine.
Zhao Dashu's family all dressed up. Anyway, the villagers would not believe that they were poor, so they might as well dress well and eat well, which would make them happy just by looking at themselves.
Song was wearing a newly made crimson silk dress, a gold hairpin in her hair, and jade bracelets on her wrists, and she looked in great spirits.
