The sickly son died young? After the marriage exchange, I will bring prosperity to his entire clan f

Chapter 630 The Zhou Clan's Thoughts

Because she never gave birth to a son, her health deteriorated, and she felt ashamed for the rest of her life. Now that she sees her daughter giving birth, she hopes the child will be a boy.

It really was a boy, and she was so happy, so very happy.

"Okay, okay, okay." She said "okay" three times in a row, and subconsciously thought that her daughter wouldn't have to be looked down upon for not being able to give birth to a boy, and wouldn't have to follow in her footsteps.

Du Mingxian could tell she was nervous. "Mom, you've just gotten back. Let's eat first, then we can sit down and talk."

"well."

The group sat down, and Madam Zhou still held the child tightly, refusing to let go.

"Mother, let my maid carry me, so we can have a proper meal."

"It's okay, Mommy will hold you. Mommy will hold you while you eat. Eat more, so that your milk will come in."

Du Mingxian: "..."

In my past life, I saw many jokes online about mothers-in-law urging their daughters-in-law to eat well so they could produce more milk. I never thought I would hear these words from my own mother in this life.

Everyone understood Zhou's joy, so she insisted on eating while holding the child, and no one said anything.

The meal was enjoyable, but Grandma Xu was a little tired afterward and needed to rest.

Xu Tingting wasn't tired, but she knew she needed to give Da Zhou Shi and Du Mingxian some space, so she made an excuse that she had something to take care of at the shop.

Xu Dazhuang, this rough and tough guy, was the funniest. Before leaving home, he brought back a red envelope.

He was the most nervous in the family when facing Du Mingxian, because he was just a servant. "This...this...is for the child, you...you don't have to mind it."

“Uncle, how could I possibly refuse the red envelope you gave to the child?” Du Mingxian happily accepted it. “Thank you, Uncle.”

When Xu Dazhuang heard Du Mingxian call him "uncle," he thought about how, because of this girl, he had a mother, a daughter, and a younger sister. He had never been so happy in his life.

This was something he had never experienced with his own family members, but now it had all come true.

"You guys talk, I'll go get busy."

Watching Xu Dazhuang leave, Madam Zhou chuckled and shook her head, "Your uncle is the most thoughtful. Look at this red envelope; he's stuffed it with plenty of money."

Du Mingxian nodded gently. She had not told Madam Zhou about Old Madam Xu and the others. These people's intentions remained unchanged, and she was willing to continue like this forever.

"Then let's see how much Uncle released, Mother."

Da Zhoushi took the money and opened it. Inside were ten silver notes, each worth fifty taels. Du Mingxian didn't react much, but Da Zhoushi reacted strongly.

"This...your uncle...sigh."

"Mom, what's wrong?"

Madam Zhou put the silver notes back into An'an's swaddling clothes, saying, "The money in here should be all of your uncle's savings."

"what?"

“The shop we run is divided into five parts. Your grandmother and I, the four of us, each get one part, and the remaining part is used for household expenses.”

“Every time your uncle received the money, he would divide it into four parts, keeping one part for himself and giving the remaining three parts to me, your grandmother, and your cousin.”

"Over the years, your uncle should have saved up this much money, and he gave it all to An'an."

Du Mingxian understood, "Then I will take good care of my uncle from now on."

"You," Madam Zhou scolded her, "but speaking of being filial to your uncle, I just remembered something."

"what happened?"

“Your sister Tingting is getting old. When we talk to her about marriage, she doesn’t respond. As her aunt, I can’t keep bringing it up, since I myself am divorced and have returned home.”

“Your uncle is a man, and he might mention it sometimes, but he never urges you to. Your grandmother would only say it once, and if your cousin doesn’t want it, she won’t say anything.”

“You’re not much older than your cousin. Come back now, talk to her, talk to her about marriage. The older a girl gets, the harder it will be for her to find a partner.”

Du Mingxian understood what was going on. "Okay, I'm back now. I'll have a good talk with my cousin about this when I have time."

"That's right. What woman doesn't get married? In the past, she didn't have a choice, but now your cousin has a choice. She can take her time to choose a good one."

“Look, aren’t you and Silang doing well?” Madam Zhou still hoped that everyone in the family would be well. “And your uncle, after your cousin gets married, your uncle can also find someone to marry into the family.”

Seeing how considerate Zhou Shi was of her family, Du Mingxian jokingly asked, "Should we find one for Grandma too, and one for Mother as well?"

Upon hearing this, Madam Zhou rolled her eyes. "You child, you're making fun of me and your grandmother."

"No, Mother, you've always been alone. Since you've considered Uncle, you must have thought about your own situation as well. Or do you have a suitable candidate in mind?"

Mrs. Zhou was taken aback. "But what did your cousin or your grandmother say?"

"No, I was just guessing." Du Mingxian acted as if she knew nothing.

Seeing her skeptical expression, Madam Zhou asked, "You really don't know anything?"

"I don't know, Mother, could it be that something's wrong with you?"

"Yes," said Madam Zhou frankly. "That person used to be sick and couldn't eat. Later, he went to the restaurant by chance and after eating my cooking, he liked it."

"After that, we kept going out to eat, and then in the end, he actually said that he liked me and insisted on being with me. I... I'm already this old, and I'm a grandmother now. I feel ashamed to even mention this."

Du Mingxian understood. He had anorexia, but after eating his mother's cooking, he liked it and his illness was cured. That's why he pursued his mother. It's really hard not to doubt his heart.

"What was Mother thinking?"

"I don't know either." Madam Zhou was also bewildered. She had never dared to imagine that she would have such a life now, where she could go to the shop to work every day, had money in her hands, was respected by others, and had a loving family.

She is happy with her life now.

Du Mingxian thought for a moment and then rephrased her question, "If I were to ask Mother to change her current lifestyle and live a different way, would Mother be willing?"

After a moment of contemplation, Madam Zhou shook her head. "I don't want to. I feel a little scared and find it hard to face unfamiliar family members."

"Then let's leave it at that for now. Mother doesn't need to worry about it. After all, it's not like you like the other person. Mother can do whatever she wants for now."

"Okay." Madam Zhou had also been troubled by this matter before, but now that she heard her daughter's words, she felt that her daughter was absolutely right, and her mood brightened up.

Having my daughter by my side is definitely a good thing.

"Mother wants Uncle to get married. Are there any suitable candidates?"

Although she bought them, they are now considered family members. If they are willing to get married, then so be it.
