Li Wazi was overjoyed to be asked about building a new house. “My mother says, now that we have enough money, she wants to make it wider, perhaps four or five rooms.”
He thought about getting one room for his mother, one for himself and Little Lian, one for Little Huzi, one for another baby in the future, and the spare one could be used as a storeroom of sorts.
The house should not be too wide, otherwise it would be too spacious for a family their size.
Ye Liu and Ye Mo could tell that he planned to have another child.
Ye Mo put the accounts book in the sack and inserted himself into the conversation. “Li Wazi, you can wait until my brothers and I have a kid with our wife. You and Sister Lian should take it slow!”
Li Wazi failed to comprehend why he suggested that. Exactly why should they take it slow?
Pffft…
Ye Liu chuckled when he realized what Ye Mo was plotting.
Liu Duo’s going to give him the cold shoulder again! How’s he so sure Little Duo’s first-born will be a boy, and Sister Lian will have a daughter? How ridiculous!
Ye Mo rolled his eyes at Li Wazi, who was still clueless. He complained internally, how have I managed to tolerate you for so long? Why can’t you understand me?
“After we and our wife give birth to a son, you and Sister Lian will give our son a future bride, got it? Do you want our families to be linked in marriage or not?”
“Ah?” Li Wazi said, stunned. Could all these things be arranged?
He could not even confirm that his wife would have a daughter next. What if they got another son?
“What? Didn’t you hear me? Do you want it or not?” Ye Mo said with a serious face.
Ye Liu chuckled again. “Mo, being connected through marriage is a good idea, but don’t you think you’re handling Li Wazi a difficult task? No one can guarantee that Sister Lian will surely have a baby girl! Moreover, what if our Little Duo gets a baby girl?”
They would only know the sex once the baby arrived. Everything else was guesswork since there were only two answers, either a boy or a girl!
Either way they would become a true family in the end. It should not matter who was the son-in-law or daughter-in-law.
Ye Mo was tongue-tied for a moment when Ye Liu mentioned that Liu Duo’s first baby could be a girl.
He had hoped Liu Duo could get a son on the first go, since daughters were bound to be wedded and would leave the house, but sons, on the other hand, would add another member into the family!
Of course, even if they got a daughter, he would still love her equally. It was just that, if he had to choose, he would much prefer a son.
Li Wazi noticed that Ye Mo’s morale had dropped after listening to Liu, so he said, “I think, if we look at physiognomy, Liu Duo is fated to have a son.”
Pffft…
The two brothers could not resist their laughter. Since when did Li Wazi learn about physiognomy?
Li Wazi did not think he said anything wrong or funny, so he added, “My wife and I don’t plan to have another kid so soon. We’ll wait until Little Huzi is two or three years older before trying again.”
He believed that Little Huzi was still quite young, and they had not even started on their new house. They could not afford another baby right now because there was not enough room.
Most importantly, his wife had not fully recovered yet. Giving birth would take a toll on the body.
After hearing him speak, Ye Mo realized that their long-standing friendship had been worth it after all.
