She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 870: Chapter 911: Three-Person Meeting

“Hahaha… my daughter-in-law is truly filial.” Xu Xianxiong proudly lifted his chin. Back when he saw Sheng Ning, despite her reputation not being good at home, he knew it must be because she was beautiful and others were jealous, intentionally smearing her.

“Mom, I bought clothes for you and Dad.” Sheng Ning took out the clothes, each designated for the three of them, making them very happy.

Sheng An’s room was next door. Since it was Sheng Ning’s first time away from home, she was afraid her sister might not be used to staying alone, so she decided to sleep with her at night.

After dinner, Xu Xianxiong went to accompany his son. After all, they were father and son; even though they hadn’t seen each other for a long time, saying he didn’t miss him would be a lie.

Zhao Lanzi was bored alone in the next room, so she went over to Sheng An’s room to chat.

The three sat on the bed and started a family meeting.

“Ningning, let me tell you, that Song Huwen today looked like she was no good.” Zhao Lanzi curled her lips, showing dislike, “With her insignificant skill, she wants to make a move on my son. Does she really think I’m a naïve rural lady?”

Zhao Lanzi’s words made the sisters widen their eyes in unison, wondering if she wasn’t indeed a rural lady.

Sheng Ning quickly adapted, flattering, “Mom, you’re like a noble lady from a wealthy family, she’s the one who fails to see the mountain of Mount Tai.”

“Exactly!” Zhao Lanzi lifted her chin, “Ningning, I support you one hundred percent, don’t worry. Someone like her, even if given to our family as a maid, I wouldn’t want her.”

Sheng An looked on enviously, “Sis, you’re really lucky. In the ten miles and eight villages, there’s not a second mother-in-law as good as Aunt.”

“True, when I was young, I vowed to treat my daughter-in-law well in the future.”

“Thank you, Mom. I will be good to you and Dad in the future too.” She wanted to hug her mother-in-law but feared it might make her uncomfortable.

“Then you should hurry and give me a chubby grandchild. If not, a granddaughter will do! I’m not picky, really!” Zhao Lanzi nodded seriously, “Today, I got mad seeing Qigang. How could he be so heartless, leaving a newly married wife at home? Hmph! If I don’t get to hold a grandchild, it’s surely his fault.”

Sheng An rested her chin on her hand, listening intently, sincerely feeling happy for her sister. At first, she didn’t quite like Little Yama, but seeing his family treat her sister so well, she was instantly won over.

Even with a thick skin, Sheng Ning felt embarrassed talking about having children in front of her mother-in-law. She bowed her head and said softly, “Mom, the General Union Dance Troupe approved six months of leave for me.”

Zhao Lanzi’s eyes lit up upon hearing this, she couldn’t resist clapping, “Your boss is really nice, I should send her a banner.”

“No, please don’t send it. What if it reminds my boss and she changes her mind?”

“Alright then!” Zhao Lanzi found endless topics when talking about chubby grandchildren. The three chatted late into the night before sleeping. Meanwhile, in the hospital room, Xu Xianxiong and his son talked for a long time, until Xu Qigang fell asleep from exhaustion, prompting Xu Xianxiong to stop talking, looking at his son with loving and gratified eyes.

He donned a piece of clothing, gently covered his son with the quilt, and sighed deeply, “Son, this family’s relying on you. Your dad has been a hooligan all my life; my biggest achievement was marrying your mom. I never thought I’d raise such an accomplished son as you. I’m proud of you. Rest assured, your mom and I will unconditionally support you at any time.”
