However, the last time they discussed this, Shi Yuting adamantly said that he not want to have a second child.
And she still did not understand why not.
Could it be that he did not want a son?
No, he wanted a son, but why wouldn’t he let her get pregnant with another?
Could it be that… he could not have a second child?
Cough, cough!
Zuo Weiyi shuddered and dispelled the strange thought in her mind. How could a man not have a second child? When did her imagination get so wild?!
“Why do want a boy? Aren’t girls quite adorable?” Zuo Yi frowned and hoped that his granddaughter would give birth to great-granddaughters for him to play with. “I mean, look at our Weiyi! She’s so obedient and sensible.”
“I’m not saying that girls are bad, it’s just that…” Shi Le started. In his heart, he just hoped for a boy to inherit the family business, not because he purely had a patriarchal mentality. “I have such a huge family business. Someone has to inherit it, right?”
Zuo Yi also somewhat agreed.
Just like his current family business, he had originally planned to let Weiyi inherit it all, but she did not want a single cent and let him donate it all to charity.
He had gone through so many stuggles throughout his life to attain what he had. But in the end, he still wouldn’t be able to bring them with him to the afterlife. It was as if he struggled only for the sake of others. Therefore, he could understand how Shi Le felt.
The Shi family had a big business and indeed needed an heir.
“Then, just have a second child!”
“Gosh, isn’t it still uncertain whether they’ll be boys or girls? What if she’s pregnant with both a boy and a girl? We can’t be sure about everything!” Shi Nuannuan could not help but speak up.
She felt that the discussion among the elders was simply putting pressure on her sister-in-law!
“That’s right, we’re still not sure about the gender. Why are you in such a hurry?” Zuo Yi glanced at Shi Le with disdain.
Shi Le was instantly speechless.
For lunch, Xiao Cui had to prepare more food due to their arrival.
She was very glad they had arrived, because she wouldn’t have to add that thing to Weiyi’s food then.
However, just as she heaved a sigh of relief, the phone in her apron pocket rang.
It was an unknown number.
She frowned and immediately picked up. “Hello?”
The other party’s voice was very low, so she couldn’t tell whose it was.
“Did you add it in?”
As soon as the other party said that, Xiao Cui’s tensed up.
“I…”
“You didn’t add it in?!” The other party’s tone was obviously a little unhappy. “What, are you going to watch your lover die?”
“Don’t touch him!” Xiao Cui tried her best to keep her voice low so that Zuo Weiyi and the others couldn’t hear her from the living room. But even so, she couldn’t hide her anxious tone.
“Then do as we say.” Xiao Cui was threatened again. “If you keep this up, I promise I’ll send Xiao Song to prison tomorrow and make sure he never comes back!”
“No, no, I…” Xiao Cui became more anxious. She had lived for more than twenty years and had never felt so helpless and desperate.
She had no family and lost the warmth of her parents since she was young. She didn’t know what it was like to have a family. All she knew was to serve people, so no one had ever loved or cared for her. Xiao Song was the first.
However, it was either her lover or her madam who had treated her so well. How was she going to choose? What was she going to do?
