She put the dish on the table with a smile. She stopped He Xuezhu from reaching out to help. “It's hot, mom will do.”

He Xuezhu has never been taken care of so carefully before. For a moment, he was at a loss. She subconsciously looked at her husband. Lin s.h.i.+heng patted her hand soothingly. “Mom is right. You are pregnant now. It is better to be careful. I will do it.”

After saying that, he got up and went to the kitchen to serve the food. When Li Chunhua saw that he didn't only care about her daughter-in-law, she felt even more comforted. She was happy and even complained: “Can't Mom serve? It's just a few dishes. Just accompany Xuezhu and do what you can for her. ”

“Look at what you're saying, mom. Xuezhu is now pregnant with a child, mom, weren't you also pregnant with me once? If I'm not good to you, who should I be good to?”

Li Chunhua felt her heart soothe as her son said so, the sourness of before was completely gone. Coming out of the kitchen, she looked at He Xuezhu face with more affection.

“Come on, Xuezhu, eat up. Mom will tell you a few things after the meal. Things that pregnant women needs to pay attention to.”

At this point, her heart went over what all the people in the village who lost their child were doing.

Pregnant women are most afraid of fatigue, shock and poor nutrition. She must take good care of the Xuezhu. First of all, she must keep up with what she eats. Then there is the shock. Li Chunhua thought for a while and felt that the Xuezhu is quite daring and should not be frightened by anything. Even if there is anything, she was only startled by a madman wandering around the next village when she went out before. However, as long as she was steady as her mother-in-law, Xuezhu would not be afraid.

This might be exaggerating a little, but she; Li Chunhua has never been afraid of much!

Just then Lin s.h.i.+heng said, “Mom, can you tell Xuezhu about this later? I'll talk about building the house first. ”

“I was thinking. Let's buy another piece of land, build a bigger house, hire more people and try to finish it sooner.”

The expression on Li Chunhua's face immediately hesitated a bit: “Buy land again? Do we have enough money?”

“That's right!” Lin s.h.i.+heng clapped his hands: “Look at me… I was so happy to come home. I forgot all about everything.”

He stood up and entered the room under the confused eyes of Li Chunhua and He Xuezhu. He took out the big bag and handed it to Li Chunhua: “Here, look… don't be scared.”

Li Chunhua smiled and glared at his son: “When was your mother ever scared? I'm already so old … Oh my!!"

She screamed and shocked Xuezhu who was curious to see. However, she saw her mother-in-law shocked and hurriedly put her arms around her son's bag. She looked around vigilantly and confirmed that there was no outsider. Then she pulled s.h.i.+heng back and asked in a low voice, “Where did you get so much money?”

“Before I came back from leave. I did a task. It was sent to me from above.”

Lin s.h.i.+heng looked at her and He Xuezhu, who was still in a daze. He cheerfully patted his chest.

“Mom, Xuezhu, I'll try harder in the future to make a better life for you.”

Li Chunhua was still shocked, but He Xuezhu looked at her husband. Thinking about what he had just said to her, that he would take good care of her and her children and her mother-in-law's gentle treatment. Her mouth could not help but smile. “s.h.i.+heng, I believe you.”

She thought that even if he didn't build a new house, she would have a good life.

A few days later, the Lins' bought another piece of land to build a new house and the news that they had hired some people, spread all over the village.

The He family was shocked when they heard the news. Didn't they say that Lin s.h.i.+heng had an illness and wanted to see a doctor?

They didn't think Lin s.h.i.+heng would cheat them. After all, since He Xuezhu married, this son-in-law has always been a straight talker. If it were Li Chunhua, it might be the case.

Little brother He was greedy for the money. Why didn't he know a soldier could make so much money before? Thinking that he had no money every time he wanted to play cards with his friends, he immediately encouraged his mother to borrow money from the Lins'.

The mother and son went again, this time to show their sincerity, they also specially carried a greeting gift.

As soon as Mother He heard about her daughter's pregnancy, she immediately smiles. She ate some sunflower seeds while saying, “this is a good thing. Xuezhu, you must have a big fat boy in your stomach!”

He Xuezhu touched her stomach and whispered, “Mom, don't say that. The baby hasn't been born yet.”

“It's okay, you eat more sour foods and don't touch any spicy food. Sour will birth a boy and spicy will birth a girl, but don't give birth to a silly little girl.”

Li Chunhua is lifting the door curtain to come in. She also fully agrees with this sentence. That's right, you must have a son!

But as soon as she lifted her eyes, she saw her son's ugly face his hand slightly gripping the corner of the table.

Other people didn't pay attention, but his mother sees it clearly.

Her mind immediately cleared up.

Right! s.h.i.+heng can't have any more children!

Who can say the child's gender for sure? If it's a son, it's all right. But if it's a daughter and she is bent on having a grandson, won't it make s.h.i.+heng feel unhappy?

Li Chunhua immediately dropped her face into gloom and went in.

“Who's a silly little girl?! Am I; Li Chunhua, the kind of person who favors boys over girls?!  As long as it's my Lins' baby, I would love a boy or a girl the same way!"

“I would never say that, in-law. Your feudal thinking is really impossible. Don't say it again in the future. It's humiliating!”

When they first promised marriage, Li Chunhua had talked to her and they had a heated discussion on the topic of 'It's no use giving birth to a daughter. They all love boys and try to get Xuezhu to give birth to a boy'. Mother He froze while still holding a sunflower seed to her mouth, stunned.

This old woman, is she crazy??
