Li Xiulan

"I know, I know, it's the New Year, what are you shouting about!"

Facing Wang Zhanggen's pressure to have children, Wang Erhai's face was full of impatience.

"What kind of attitude is this, I tell you to have children and you're not willing! Wait until you're old and can't have them anymore, I'll see if you regret it then!"

Wang Zhanggen scolded Wang Erhai with a dark face, then turned back to Liu Meiqi and said:

"Meiqi, don't spoil him, prepare for pregnancy when you should, have children when you should. If he dares to bully you, call me and I'll take the bus down to help you beat him up. Anyway, Shangou Village to County Town isn't that far!"

Hearing these words, Liu Meiqi was very happy:

"Dad, you're so thoughtful, thank you. With you saying this, I'm reassured!"

Then she said to Wang Erhai:

"Wang Erhai, did you hear that? You can't bully me anymore from now on!"

Wang Erhai's face was full of gloom.

He really couldn't understand why his own father was so biased toward Liu Meiqi.

Liu Meiqi was a troublemaker who made life miserable; weren't the usual arguments all started by her?

Besides, he truly didn't want children. First, work was busy now, right at a critical period of career advancement—where was the time to take care of children?

Second, he didn't love Liu Meiqi. He was very worried that children born to him and Liu Meiqi would be emotionally unstable like Liu Meiqi.

If it was a boy, that would be fine; if he was unreasonable and made trouble, he could be beaten and scolded to teach him a lesson.

But if it was a girl, she couldn't be beaten or scolded, and spoiling her too much would probably spoil her rotten, which would be troublesome.

"Heard, heard. If I don't bully you, I'll burn incense in gratitude. How could I possibly bully you?"

Wang Erhai replied impatiently.

Wang Zhanggen then showed a satisfied smile.

Feeling that he had taught this son a lesson, and taught him very well.

As for why he was so biased toward Liu Meiqi, there was no other reason, only because Liu Meiqi was willing to give him grandchildren.

Especially after learning that Du Xiaojuan and Wang Dashan had wealth without children, Liu Meiqi's willingness to give him grandchildren seemed all the more precious.

He didn't care what Liu Meiqi's personality was like, what her character was like, or what her mental state was like. As long as she could give him grandchildren, she was his best daughter-in-law!

Just then, Wang Erhai's mobile phone rang.

It was Wang Dashan calling.

"Hello, Big Brother, where are you?"

Wang Erhai answered the phone.

"I've already arrived at County Town, right at the gate of your residential complex. Where should I park the car?"

Wang Dashan's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Wait for me, I'll go down to guide you. Drive straight into the underground garage below my building; that's more convenient!"

"Okay, okay, I'll wait for you!"

Wang Erhai hung up the phone and said to everyone:

"Big Brother is back. I'll go down to pick him up."

Liu Meiqi then called out to stop Wang Erhai:

"What about lunch? It hasn't been started yet, and no ingredients have been bought."

Li Xiulan said:

"Why don't I make it? Didn't I bring two chickens down? The chickens raised at home are very fat. Killing one chicken is enough for everyone to eat one meal!"

Wang Erhai said instead:

"Mom, let's kill the chicken tonight. It's too late now. Later we'll all go out to eat outside."

After saying this, Wang Erhai went downstairs.

He saw his elder brother and his elder sister-in-law at the entrance of the residential complex.

He sat in the back seat and directed Wang Dashan to drive the car into the underground garage of the residential complex.

After entering the underground garage and parking the car properly.

Du Xiaojuan took big bags and small bags of gifts out of the trunk.

Seeing this, Wang Erhai hurriedly said:

"Eldest Sister-in-law, it's enough to just have New Year's Eve dinner during the Spring Festival. Buying so many things back is a bit too much expense."

Du Xiaojuan said with a smile:

"These are all gifts for you. There are some for Mom and Dad, some for your wife, and some for Xiao Hua."

"Is there one for me?" Wang Erhai asked with a beaming smile.

"Rest assured, of course there is!" Du Xiaojuan replied with a smile. "Everyone's gifts have been bought. It's impossible not to buy yours!"

Then she said to one of the gift bags: "That one is for you. Take it yourself!"

Wang Erhai took it over, opened it, and was immediately overjoyed:

"Eldest Sister-in-law, you're so thoughtful. You actually bought me the Cigarette Alcohol Tea Set, and they're all good cigarettes, good alcohol, and good tea. Adding them up, it must be several thousand at least. Are you treating me like an official?"

Du Xiaojuan smiled and went along with it:

"Officials aren't treated as well as you. My husband Dashan and I have to visit Xiao Xueqing tonight. She invited us to be guests at her place. We can't not give her face. After all, she is the Deputy County Magistrate. My husband Dashan and I bought her a fountain pen, a thermos cup, and a piece of cosmetics."

These things, at first hearing really weren't as valuable as precious cigarettes, alcohol, and tea.

But actually, just that one fountain pen alone was far more expensive than the cigarettes, alcohol, and tea given to Wang Erhai combined.

Wang Erhai, hearing this, was immediately flattered:

"How could I bear to, Eldest Sister-in-law? Why not give the cigarettes and tea you were going to give me to Xiao Xueqing? She's a Deputy County Magistrate; if the gift is too cheap, she probably won't even look at it!"

Wang Dashan stood up at this time and said:

"Second Brother, you don't need to worry about this; we've already planned it all out. Besides, back then it was Xiao Xueqing who begged Xiao Juan to come to the County Town for business, not us asking her for something, so the gift we give her just needs to be a token gesture."

After hearing these words, Wang Erhai stopped saying anything more.

Several people carrying big bags and small bags of gifts took the elevator upstairs.

Wang Erhai opened the Living Room Gate; just as he entered, Du Xiaojuan hurriedly smiled and greeted everyone in the room:

"Dad, Mom, Happy New Year, Mei Qi Happy New Year, Xiao Hua Happy New Year!"

Wang Erhai smiled and said:

"Eldest Sister-in-law bought New Year gifts for everyone!"

Liu Meiqi, hearing there were gifts, hurried forward to greet:

"Really? There are actually gifts!"

Du Xiaojuan hurriedly handed over the gift for Liu Meiqi:

"Mei Qi, this is for you!"

Then she took out the gift for Wang Xiaohua:

"Xiao Hua, this is for you!"

Wang Xiaohua accepted the gift, said thank you, and said nothing more.

Liu Meiqi looked and saw it was actually an LV Bag, and immediately became even happier:

"Wow, an LV Bag, Eldest Sister-in-law, thank you so much! I've wanted to buy an LV Bag for a long time!"

Wang Erhai was also somewhat surprised; he didn't expect Du Xiaojuan would give his wife such an expensive bag:

"This bag is quite expensive, right?"

Du Xiaojuan, however, smiled and said:

"Not very expensive; this is just a basic model, not worth much money."

Liu Meiqi smiled happily:

"Even a basic model costs over ten thousand yuan!"

Li Xiulan and Wang Zhanggen standing nearby heard this, and their expressions were not too good.

Li Xiulan even couldn't help but feel the pain of spending:

"Heavens, a handbag costs this much money? This is too wasteful, isn't it? Xiao Juan, we need to save our money……"

Du Xiaojuan hurriedly said:

"Mom, we only spend this once for the New Year; as long as you like the gifts we bought, that's fine. There's no need to care about this little bit of money. By the way, Mom, this is for you—a consecrated Buddha amulet pendant. Wear it, and it can protect your health and safety."

Li Xiulan's face was full of anxiety:

"This consecrated Buddha amulet, how much does it cost?"

Du Xiaojuan said honestly: "Not expensive, a few thousand yuan."

Li Xiulan felt the pain of spending: "This isn't expensive?"

Then she hurriedly asked: "Can this Buddha amulet protect Dashan, Erhai, and Xiao Hua, my three sons?"

Du Xiaojuan hurriedly said: "Mom, as long as you wear it, it can not only protect you, but also protect your three sons!"

Li Xiulan then accepted the Buddha amulet:

"Fine, then I'll wear it every day from now on, so the Buddha can protect my three sons all being safe and sound!"

Du Xiaojuan then took out the gift for Wang Zhanggen:

"Dad, this is for you—a suit. Wearing it will make you look very impressive!"

Wang Zhanggen, who had been keeping a dark face, finally spoke at this time:

"I don't want your gift, you barren good-for-nothing wife who doesn't bear sons!"
