Back to the 60s: The Struggle Career of a Charmed Wife

Lu Jiang’s father’s expression cleared slightly after hearing Wen Ruyu’s words. Xibao took a sip of soup, her cheeks creasing into a frown, "Bitter!"

"That’s bitter herbs. Your grandmother Wenyue didn’t squeeze out the bitter juice properly, how could it not be bitter?" Wen Ruyu patted her pocket, and it took her a while to remember that she had fallen to this rustic place and had long lost the habit of carrying a couple of sugar cubes with her, "Xibao, how’s your brother? Are the triplets identical? Are they cute?"

They already knew from Guanchengkou, but they still wanted to hear it from Xibao.

Xibao uttered an ’ah’ sound and shook her head, "Dundun is fine, Xiongxiong is the troublemaker, and Zhuangzhuang is small. Zhuangzhuang is sick, and mom is sick too."

Upon hearing this, everyone hurriedly asked what happened.

Lu Jiang’s father summarized the truth in a few words, "Zhuangzhang was born weak and sickly, so his mother applied to be discharged from the army, and now we have hired a nanny, who takes care of Zhuangzhuang full-time."

"It’s good as long as he’s alive, good as long as he’s alive. He can be weak, as long as we prioritize the nutritional supplements for him," Wenyue was the first to speak, a trace of sorrow flashing in her eyes, "We’re all old folks in our sixties and seventies, what haven’t we experienced? It’s good as long as you look on the bright side. The fortunate thing is that Qingxue is very skilled in medicine, and Zhuangzhuang... didn’t Single Blind say so? Qingxue and Ajiang are destined to have four sons and a daughter, who will surely grow up safe and sound. Maybe when Zhuangzhuang grows up, he’ll be just like Xibao."

Zhu Ling gripped his wife’s hand, offering comfort, knowing that she was thinking of their eldest son who had not lived past three days.

Lu Jiang’s father, however, said, "Zhuangzhuang takes after his mother, almost identical."

Jin Ruochu clapped her hands and laughed, "That’s even better, that’s what I call good fortune! What’s that old saying? ’Boys who take after their mother are lucky, girls who resemble their dad are blessed.’ Zhuangzhang takes after his mom—his good luck is yet to come!"
