Yan Jiecheng thought that if he wanted to replenish his wife's health, buying things for Lao Yan's family would not work. If the family ate meat every day, they would definitely be reported by some unscrupulous person. Hidden in the Siheyuan
The richest man Xu Damao's family didn't dare to eat like this. They could only bring cooked food to Yu Li to make up for it alone. Yu Li was not a stupid woman. On the contrary, she had some cleverness and wouldn't talk about it everywhere.
When I came back from work the next day, most people in the courtyard knew about Yu Li's pregnancy. This was not surprising. The third aunt had been in the courtyard for a day, so why not show off and talk about it? They all listened to other aunts.
Show off, how long have you been waiting for this day? Didn’t Jia Zhang and Widow Qin’s pregnancy tell her every day? Liu Guangqi’s wife gave birth to a daughter thousands of miles away, and everyone in the courtyard knew it immediately. These aunts,
The aunts get together every day and talk about these things.
When Yan Jiecheng came back, he was congratulated and ridiculed by the aunts in the courtyard.
Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e also got the news, and they started to quarrel at home.
"Lou Xiao'e, look at other people's wives, they got pregnant just a short time after they got married. Look at yourself, it's been several years and there's still no movement at all." Xu Damao yelled.
"Xu Damao, we don't know whose fault it is anymore. You have to blame me for not getting pregnant. How could I be blind and marry you in the first place?" Lou Xiao'e said.
"I don't know why I married you blindly. You have the temperament of a young lady. You can't do anything. You can't have children that women can have. It's not your fault, but whose fault is it? A husband and a wife don't have children.
, because the first mother cannot give birth." Xu Damao said.
"Xu Damao, you are a bastard!" Lou Xiao'e cried.
"I'm telling you Lou Xiao'e, I took all the medicine I bought for you honestly. There is no medicine that is not bitter. Don't give me two days off and three days off. When will you be able to conceive a child like this?" Xu Damao
said.
"Xu Damao, you found these folk remedies in every nook and cranny. They are of no use at all. You want me to take them every day, so why don't you take them yourself?"
Lou Xiao'e then hit Xu Damao with a feather duster. If Xu Damao hadn't been worried that the Lou family was the big director of the steel rolling mill and wanted to take advantage of the Lou family, the two of them would have started fighting. Instead of one person fighting now, the other
People are hiding.
It's not just once or twice that two people have such troubles. Whenever there is a new child in the courtyard or nearby, the two of them will start a fight.
After the two of them had finished fighting, Lou Xiaoe packed up a few clothes, carried her bag and walked to her parents' house. Lou Xiaoe's father was a big capitalist, and her mother was the most favored little wife. In the new society, monogamy was practiced, so Lou's father stayed
My wife is Lou Xiao'e's mother. She is the daughter raised by my favorite little wife. The eldest lady has such a bad temper.
Xu Damao was depressed at home for a while. He thought about giving birth to a child, so he should seek advice from someone who is good at it. The older generation did not consider it, and the married young people in the courtyard looked down on this and that because Xu Damao was a projectionist.
There is no good relationship. The reason why I am young is because Xu Damao is rich. They are all his younger brothers and they listen to him when it comes to money, but a group of half-grown children are of no use. When I think of this kind of thing, it is best to ask my fair-weather friend Yan Jiecheng.
Xu Damao prepared some food and wine at home and ran over to see Yan Jiecheng.
"Xie Cheng, I heard that your wife is pregnant, and my buddy has prepared a table to help you celebrate." Xu Damao said.
"How can I ask you to help me celebrate? I'll set up a table for you when I'm free." Yan Jiecheng saw Xu Damao's enthusiasm and couldn't figure out what was going on.
"Let's go, I'm ready." Xu Damao pulled Yan Jiecheng and said.
"Okay, come over after I say hello." Yan Jiecheng said.
"Just say hello, but don't bring anything today."
Yan Jiecheng said hello to Yu Li, chatted for a few words, and then arrived at Xu Damao's house.
When I arrived at Xu Damao's house, I saw that Xu Damao was at home alone. He had prepared peanuts, preserved eggs, fried bacon, scrambled eggs, and a bottle of Fenjiu.
"Da Mao, you see, I was supposed to treat you, and you spent so much money on wine and food to treat me, it makes me feel embarrassed. Isn't my sister-in-law at home today?" Yan Jiecheng asked.
"We brothers don't care about this. It's the same for anyone who invites you. Your sister-in-law has something to go back to her parents' house. Let's drink whatever we want today." Xu Damao said.
Xu Damao poured wine for the two of them as he spoke.
After the two of them had almost eaten and drank half a bottle of wine.
"Brother, you haven't been married for long, and your sister-in-law is pregnant. Look at me again, we have been married for several years, and your sister-in-law has not made any movement at all. Do you have some secret recipe?" Xu Damao said.
"Da Mao, to be honest, I really don't have one, but I heard that you have found a lot of secret recipes and folk remedies." Yan Jiecheng said.
"I'm not afraid of making fun of you when I tell you. I'm really looking for it. Your sister-in-law has been taking it off and on for several years, but it still has no effect at all." Xu Damao said.
"Where did you find the folk remedies? Are they reliable or not?"
"It's reliable, it's absolutely reliable. I asked someone to find it. I found it after hearing that it would lead to pregnancy. I searched for a lot of old Chinese medicine doctors and exclusive secret recipes." Xu Damao said.
"You have said so, and I have to say something unpleasant. The good ones you found outside are mixed, and you can't tell the real ones from the fake ones. After all these years, you and your sister-in-law have never thought of going to the hospital for a check-up."
Yan Jie became the Taoist.
"Isn't it a bit embarrassing not to have a child? We are too embarrassed to go to the hospital for a check-up. The old Chinese doctor we found is better to keep it confidential," Xu Damao said.
"If you ask me, you should go to the hospital for a check-up. If there is nothing wrong, just work harder. If there is something wrong, you can know the cause and it will be easier to treat. You have been married for several years and have no children. People in the hospital have told you to go
It won't be embarrassing to go to the hospital. When you give birth to a big fat boy, they will all gag them." Yan Jiecheng said.
"You mean the two of us should go to the hospital for a checkup?" Xu Damao said.
"Yes, go to the hospital for a formal check-up. You and your sister-in-law should think this over carefully and make a total calculation." Yan Jiecheng said.
After coming out of Xu Damao's house, Yan Jiecheng thought about what he said today and didn't know if he could change anything.
Today can be regarded as Xu Damao's heartfelt confession, and it is not in vain for the two of them to drink so many times.
When he got home, Yan Jiecheng took out the sausages from the cabinet and cut them into a plate.
"Yu Li, come and have something to eat. You need to take a good supplement now and eat something before going to bed at night." Yan Jiecheng said.
"Why did Xu Damao come to drink with you again today? What did you talk about?" Yu Li said.
"There's nothing to talk about. He's the only one at home today, looking for me to have a drink and chat," Yan Jiecheng said.
