Chapter 989: Chapter 991 Development Outward (1) Chapter 989: Chapter 991 Development Outward (1) Yang Mogui stopped speaking at this point, finally coming to a halt.
She had felt that Lu’s mother’s words had been in agreement with her all along, confirming the consensus between the two sets of parents. Her demands were not high; if Lu Weixi would simply nod in agreement to having a child, the problem would be easily solved. She would not restrict Lu Weixi from working, nor would she force her to do anything–just to have a child, what’s there to fear?
Besides, she had no preference over Lu Weixi having a boy or a girl. They had been married for so many years, and Qin Zhiyou was nearing thirty. The ancients said that one should establish himself at thirty. Wasn’t this age sufficient?
With great expectation, she looked at Lu’s mother, feeling she was quite reasonable. But after waiting for a long while, Lu’s mother did not utter a word, and her expression seemed to worsen. After some thought, she added a few more sentences, “Of course, I’m very open-minded. I won’t favor boys over girls, I won’t be like the third branch of the family, insisting that my daughter-in-law must bear a son. In this day and age, a daughter can inherit the family business just the same, and if not up to the task, hiring a team to run it isn’t out of the question. As long as the young couple is willing, aside from the month of confinement after birth, Weixi can do whatever she wishes afterward. The Qin family may lack many things, but not the means to hire several people to take care of and teach the child, which won’t interfere with her affairs. I also know your health has always been poor. Don’t you want to see your daughter have children sooner at this moment? Don’t you want to hold your grandchild?”
Lu’s mother still did not take a stance, and Yang Mogui, thinking it over, figured it must be because of Qin Zhiyou’s excessive behavior in the past. Although slightly displeased, she still made a promise, “About Zhiyou, I can assure you, he definitely won’t dare fool around anymore. His grandfather and I have already given him an ultimatum, as long as he isn’t divorced, such scandals will never emerge again.”
Finally, Lu’s mother spoke, taking a deep breath and saying indifferently, “There’s a saying, ‘Once unfaithful, forever untrustworthy.’ I don’t know how Xixi has endured this marriage, but Qin Zhiyou’s past actions were incredibly disgraceful. Since this time it’s Xixi’s own decision, as her mother, I will support all of her wishes. I also agree that now is not the best time for them to have children.”
