Chapter 537 Keep your eyes open
"If she gives birth to her own child, will she still take care of Lili and Binbin for me?" Binbin is her second child who was sent back home just when he was one month old.
"You don't have to worry about this. If you're worried that she'll be distracted and can't take good care of Lili and Binbin, then let her and Yan Zheng have children a few years later. After Binbin goes to elementary school, let them have children together."
Sister Yan seemed to be reluctant to do it, "It's okay this way."
Jiang Yue lay on the bed in a daze, her heart a mess. If she married Yan Zheng, she would have to help Yan Zheng raise Lili and Binbin. She didn't want to be someone else's 'stepmother' and raise children after getting married, and not even be able to have her own children. Maybe she would send Binbin to elementary school and be kicked out.
Jiang Yue lay in bed for a long time, until she finally adjusted her mood and got up.
In the evening, Wen Xi saw Jiang Yue coming in as if she was about to cry, and was extremely worried, "Xiao Yue, didn't you go to Yan Zheng's house for dinner? How did you become like this? What happened?"
"Xiaoxi." Jiang Yue threw herself into Wenxi's arms and burst into tears.
Wen Xi patted Jiang Yue's back distressedly, "What's wrong? Did Yan Zheng bully you? I'll ask Brother Qin to teach Yan Zheng a lesson for you."
Jiang Yue cried for a while, then sobbed and said, "Yan Zheng's elder brother and sister-in-law came back with their second son. They left the child at home and wanted me to raise him until he started elementary school. They were also afraid that I would be distracted and it would be bad for the child. After Yan Zheng and I get married, they will not let me and Yan Zheng have our own children."
"It's really terrible. If they never come back, I will have to raise their children for the rest of their lives, educate them through middle school and high school, and if they can go to college in the future, I will have to support them through college. Do I have to buy them a house and prepare gifts for their wives? If they don't come back when they are old, do I have to help take care of their grandchildren? Will I have no time for myself in this life?"
Wen Xi also sighed heavily after hearing this, "I didn't expect Yan Zheng's sister-in-law to be so calculating. But if you marry Yan Zheng, can't you move out and live on your own?"
"Yan Zheng's elder brother and his wife work outside and have no time to come back, so Yan Zheng is responsible for the care of his parents. Wherever Yan Zheng lives, they live there. This is inseparable. Whenever I think about getting married and taking care of two elderly people and two children at such a young age, I feel terrified. Am I destined to be a slave to others?"
"Then ask Yan Zheng, if his elder brother and sister-in-law don't raise the child themselves and ask others to help raise the child, will they give money? Are they just letting others raise the child for them for free without any effort or money?" Wen Xi said with a frown.
Jiang Yue shook her head. "No need to ask. Yan Zheng's elder brother and sister-in-law have never sent any money back. Yan Lili has always been raised by Uncle Yan and Aunt Yan. If I am asked to raise them in the future, I will have to pay for it myself."
Wen Xi stood there in a daze, not knowing what to say. Yan Zheng's elder brother and sister-in-law were there, and there was no need to spend money, but Yan's father and mother had to pay for raising the child. Then they wanted Yan Zheng and Jiang Yue to pay. This was a bit too exaggerated.
He neither spends money nor works hard for his own children. He is really calculating.
Wen Xi patted Jiang Yue on the shoulder and said, "Xiao Yue, you should have a good talk with Yan Zheng to see what Yan Zheng means. If he agrees to raise your nephews and nieces and is willing to pay for them, then you should think about it carefully. No matter what decision you make, I respect your choice."
If Yan Zheng agrees to raise the children for his elder brother and sister-in-law without them having to pay, then this person should not marry him, because once she marries him, she will become the adoptive mother of his nephews and nieces. If she doesn't do anything well, she will be scolded and everyone will mistakenly think that she is not good to her nephews and nieces.
The most important thing is that other people's children cannot be beaten or scolded, and cannot be educated. If the child is raised in a wrong way, everyone will blame her. If the child is excellent, everyone will say that the parents have good genes. Anyway, good things are due to the biological parents, and bad things are due to the adoptive parents. And Yan Zheng is his uncle, so naturally Jiang Yue will have to bear everything.
Jiang Yue nodded. She liked Yan Zheng, but if Yan Zheng's elder brother and sister-in-law were so calculating, she would not marry Yan Zheng. It would be too scary to ruin her whole life.
Before getting married, you must open your eyes, understand the other party's family atmosphere, and also understand the other party's family members. Yan Zheng's sister-in-law is too calculating. If you marry into the Yan family, you may live in her calculations all your life, and maybe all the money you earn all your life may become her children's, so you really have to think about it carefully.
To be a good woman, you have to suffer.
But this is Jiang Yue’s own business, and Wen Xi is not in a position to help her make a decision. Jiang Yue can only think it through herself.
Yan Zheng's eldest brother and his wife sent their one-month-old son back home. After only a few days at home, they used the excuse of being busy with work, left their son behind, and left in a hurry.
Jiang Yue did not go to Yan's house because she knew that as soon as she went there, Yan's mother would definitely teach her how to take care of children.
That day, when everyone was busy in the watermelon field, suddenly an aunt from the village ran over and shouted loudly, "Gu Huaian, Gu Huaian, your wife has a stomachache. I'm afraid she's about to give birth. You should go back quickly!"
Wen Xi said to Gu Huaian, "Gu Huaian, you should go back quickly. Giving birth is like walking through the gates of hell. It is very dangerous and you must not take it lightly."
Afterwards, Wen Xi said to Lu Mingxiu, "Lu Mingxiu, go find the ox cart driver and ask him to harness the ox cart and take Xu Mengying and Gu Huaian to the hospital."
"Okay, I'll go now." Lu Mingxiu put down what he was holding and ran away.
Xu Mengying got pregnant before she got married, so the date is correct this month, but people who don't know the truth would think that Xu Mengying gave birth a month prematurely.
When everyone saw the ox cart leaving the watermelon field, they felt relieved knowing that Gu Huaian was taking Xu Mengying to the hospital. If Gu Huaian didn't even have this sense of responsibility, Wen Xi would have doubted her own vision. Why would she have invited Gu Huaian to grow watermelons with her in the first place?
Fortunately, Gu Huaian is not such a heartless and ungrateful person.
The next day at noon, Gu Huaian and Xu Mengying were discharged from the hospital. Xu Mengying gave birth to a daughter, and it was an old man driving a ox cart who went to the hospital to pick her up.
Because they had just returned, the mother and the child needed a good rest, so no one disturbed them. However, before giving birth, Xu Mengying found the grandmother who took care of Liang Zhaodi's child and asked her to come over during the day to help take care of her during the confinement period. Otherwise, it would be just her and Gu Huaian, who knew nothing and had no idea how to take care of the confinement period.
