Wang Yazhi’s true thoughts were this. From her perspective, both Ling Tianya and Ruan Zeyan were still young. It didn’t matter whether the firstborn was a boy or a girl. At the end of the day, the child is a Ruan child, so she would like the child either way.
However, from the perspectives of the other madams and ladies, the child in Ling Tianya’s stomach was probably a girl. No baby had been born into the Ruan Family for many years, so there were many pairs of eyes fixed on Ling Tianya’s stomach. If it was a boy, then he would be the heir of the Ruan Family.
Ling Tianya had probably found out that she was carrying a girl a long time ago and was afraid that if the Ruan Family found out, they wouldn’t want the child or would make things hard for her.
No one believed Wang Yazhi when she said that Ling Tianya had not checked to see if the child was male or female. Hospitals now didn’t reveal the children’s genders, but that hospital was operated by the Ruan Family. How could Ling Tianya not know whether the child was male or female?
The Ruan Family had waited for a grandson and an heir for so long, and their long-awaited grandchild turned out to be a girl. Of course, they would be disappointed. Therefore, Ling Tianya said that she wanted to maintain the air of mystery.
The women sitting down were feeling all sorts of emotions. Wang Yazhi’s words made them think of all kinds of possibilities.
However, their thoughts remained thoughts. They had to allow Wang Yazhi to continue talking.
“Right. Nowadays, it makes no difference whether a child is male or female. A girl can hold up half the sky.” Madame Liu was the first to speak.
“Right, right, now, a girl is no less than a boy. Also, a girl is more considerate…”
The other people followed Madame Liu’s words and the words quickly went to the bottom of Wang Yazhi’s heart.
Wang Yazhi laughed as she held Ling Tianya’s hand. “That’s right! It’s not that I am showing off my daughter-in-law, but my Yaya is amazing. Not only does she have literary talent, but she is also extremely capable. You guys have probably seen the movie Hunting Allure that aired in movie theatres recently. That was a movie based on the novel my Yaya wrote. Also, my Yaya was also the screenwriter!”
Everyone present had seen the movie Hunting Allure. It was definitely a good movie and the people watching it couldn’t take their eyes away from the screen when they watched it.
From the ladies’ expressions, Wang Yazhi could tell that they had definitely all seen it and she continued to smile and brag about Ling Tianya. “Also, not only is my Yaya a well-known novel writer and golden screenwriter, but she is also the big boss of Zhi Ya Entertainment! You guys all know about Zhiya Entertainment. Many of the famous artists in the country are signed to Zhiya Entertainment. We can’t mention all of them but let’s talk about Gu Zhiqian. He is the king of acting!”
Wang Yazhi’s words of praise toward her daughter-in-law had been heard by the people present many times over. However, Wang Yazhi was happy when she bragged, so they could only let her be.
Ling Tianya was a little embarrassed when she saw Wang Yazhi bragging about her.
“Mom, you have talked a lot. Are you thirsty? Drink some water.” Ling Tianya handed Wang Yazhi her teacup, trying to make her have a drink so she’d stop bragging.
Wang Yazhi took the teacup and then proudly said, “Look, not only is my Yaya capable, but she is also filial! She is a great daughter-in-law. I’m telling you guys. If you guys are looking for a daughter-in-law, she should be like my Yaya.”
Ling Tianya was lost for words.
She had given Wang Yazhi the water to stop her bragging, but it had backfired on her.
“Aiya. Yazhi, we are not all as lucky as you. There is only one Yaya in the world, and she is married into the Ruan Family. Even if we want one to marry into our family, there isn’t one,” Madame Liu laughed.
Wang Yazhi proudly raised her chin. “Then there’s no other way. In any case, Yaya is part of my family!”
