Stepmother Reborn: Dad, my mom hasn't hit me for three days

A few people had already occupied the advantageous position and squeezed into the main hall door, wanting to see what was happening to Uncle Jianxin? Could he really be sick?

There was a middle-aged man sitting in the room. He was a few years older than Li Jiandang, but he looked like a highly respected doctor. This man was Li Xingye, the talented man from Lijiatun.

After Li Xingye checked Li Jianxin's pulse and found nothing wrong, he checked An Rou's pulse. This time it took a little longer. Miao Xiaohua looked a little nervous. Could she be sick?

Li Xingye asked An Rou some more questions, such as when her last menstrual period came.

After An Rou finished answering, Li Xingye let go of her hand and smiled at Li Jianxin, "Congratulations! Your wife is two months pregnant."

Li Jianxin immediately jumped up and said, "You're talking nonsense!"

Li Xingye's face, which was always calm, showed a bit of surprise! A normal person would be surprised to hear that his wife was pregnant, but he cursed. There was only one explanation that made sense. This child was not his!

After all, Miao Xiaohua understood her son, so she gave him a big B-pocket and said, "How can you talk like that! Having children is a good thing! Only you, a fool, treat children as a burden every day!"

Hearing her say this, Li Xingye breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that she disliked the hard work of raising a child. If he told him another thing, would he be even more miserable?

Miao Xiaohua asked about Li Xingye's condition, "She's so thin, there won't be any problems with the baby, right?"

"She's definitely got a problem. She's having twins!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the villagers were in an uproar. Before they could show any envious expressions, there was a clang and Li Jianxin fainted on the ground.

Miao Xiaohua hissed and rubbed the back of her head, "Oh, I'm stupid to begin with, will this make me even more stupid?"

Everyone: "..."

Youcai squeezed out from inside. The villagers standing outside were curious. They were all enthusiastic spectators and did not feel embarrassed to ask the child about the matter.

Youcai ignored these people, squeezed in front of Zhang Xiuhua, and met her curious eyes, "Aunt Zhang, let me tell you what happened. It's so funny!"

He kept talking non-stop, and Baolin thought his story was too dry, so with her polishing, the story became tortuous and full of suspense, and the villagers around listened with great interest.

So everyone started discussing it.

"Jianxin is so lucky that she is pregnant with twins?"

"What's so good about that! Twins are dangerous, they must be born in the hospital. He is such a stingy person, he must be heartbroken!"

"Ah? Was he crying just now because of money? I thought he was crying for joy!"

Some villagers thought that Li Jianxin could not possibly not want a child, and that men have their own obsession with carrying on the family line. Only a fool would not want a child who would carry on his bloodline, take his surname, and not have to be born by himself, and who would be filial to him and take care of him in his old age when he grows up.

Is Li Jianxin stupid? Of course he is not stupid! If he were stupid, he would not have helped the village sell so many rice popsicles! He would not have been so shameless as to sell tofu to Zhang Xiuhua.

So everyone thinks that Li Jianxin's crying is a show. He just likes to show off! He thinks he is better than others, and then pretends that he is actually very simple, so that he looks very powerful.

This is what he did when they asked him for advice on how to sell rice popcorn bars. They were furious. They didn't expect him to do it again this time. Humph! They won't be fooled!

Children have no idea that adults have such unique imaginations.

Youcai felt that Uncle Jianxin didn't want to have children from the bottom of his heart, so he tilted his head with curious eyes and asked Zhang Xiuhua, "Aunt Zhang, why doesn't Uncle Jianxin want children?"

Zhang Xiuhua didn't want to fool him, so she told him about Li Jianxin's psychological activities. "Without children, he earns his own money and spends it all, he eats his own food, eats his own snacks, wears his own clothes, and everything is put first for himself. How comfortable it is. With children, he has to put everything first for the children. If the children are not filial when they grow up, all his spending in the past few years will be wasted!"

When the other villagers heard this, they actually thought it made sense.

If they were like Old Man Wang, who had four children but was not around, it would be like raising them in vain! No, no! How could they be Old Man Wang? Old Man Wang would not teach his sons, but they were different.

Youcai tilted his head and thought for a long time, "But you can eat even if you have a child. Don't you eat grains and snacks and wear new clothes and shoes like us?"

Zhang Xiuhua: “…”

She coughed lightly. "Your father makes money in our family, and I sell tofu, which is enough to support you kids. But your uncle Jianxin can't make that much money. He can only tighten his belt and live a frugal life."

Youcai listened thoughtfully.

Xu Chunying heard the conversation between the two and asked, "Do you really believe that Li Jianxin doesn't want to have children?"

Zhang Xiuhua thought for a moment and said, "I don't think he's joking. You know he thinks differently from us."

Xu Chunying didn't say whether she believed it or not, she just sneered, "He didn't want to have a baby, so he went to the hospital to get sterilized earlier. Now that he's pregnant, he's crying again. He's mentally ill!"

Zhang Xiuhua actually had no rebuttal. If people in thirty years don't want to have children, they will simply choose not to get married. If Li Jianxin doesn't want to have children, there is actually no need to get married. However, if he doesn't get married and date at this time, it would be like being a hooligan, which really won't work.

She thought of Li Jianxin's personality and guessed, "I guess he doesn't want to go to the hospital for sterilization to save money."

Sterilization is not a big operation, it costs at least a few dollars. How could Li Jianxin, who is so stingy, be willing to spend money?

Xu Chunying laughed out loud, "It's something he could really do."

Li Fengjiao didn't interrupt and asked Zhang Xiuhua curiously, "Second sister-in-law, if Li Jianxin doesn't have children, what will he do when he gets old? Hasn't he thought about it?"

Zhang Xiuhua used modern popular words to answer her question, "He lived a carefree life for decades, but didn't he deserve the hard times in the last few years?!"

Li Fengjiao thought about it carefully, and it was true. Without children, there would be no worries, wouldn't life be comfortable? As for continuing the family line? How could someone like Li Jianxin care!

After some consideration, it was finally their turn.

Liu Shujun doesn't have any serious illness, but she gets sick every winter. In fact, it's a disease left over from giving birth when she was young. She can only take care of herself and not let herself be cold.

After seeing the doctor, it was getting dark, so the group went home.

Li Fengjiao asked her eldest brother to help her tie the quilt to the back seat of the bicycle, and Li Jiandang asked his wife to bring some gifts to her younger sister.

These days, city dwellers live only slightly better than rural dwellers, but they don't eat meat very often.

Xu Chunying brought a big goose that had been killed on a snowy day. Li Fengjiao kept refusing, but Xu Chunying insisted. The two of them pushed and shoved each other. Zhang Xiuhua thought that they might care about the sense of ceremony, so she did not intervene. After more than twenty rounds of tug-of-war, Li Fengjiao finally accepted it.

After seeing off her sister-in-law and her family, Zhang Xiuhua cleaned up the dishes and plates, put away her own dishes and plates, and called the children back home.
