Protagonist:

Li Xiulan

Du Xiaojuan is pregnant; this is a good thing.

That very evening, Wang Dashan made a phone call back to his hometown.

He told his parents the happy news.

"Xiao Juan is pregnant?"

Upon hearing this news, Wang Zhanggen immediately beamed with a radiant smile, happy like a child.

However, his first reaction was not to praise Du Xiaojuan, but to say:

"I knew it — Wu Banxian is the most efficacious! After his operation, your and Xiao Juan's fate has truly changed from 'wealth without children' to 'wealth with children'!"

Wang Dashan laughed embarrassedly.

Because he knew that Wu Banxian's previous actions were all merely the result of his Third Brother operating behind the scenes.

But being misunderstood by Wang Zhanggen like this is also a good thing.

At least it can make Wang Zhanggen show a bit more respect whenever he sees Du Xiaojuan in the future.

So Wang Dashan not only did not expose his own father's ignorance, but instead said:

"Dad, Wu Banxian also said we must protect Xiao Juan; otherwise this child won't be born easily."

Wang Zhanggen immediately said:

"That's a must! No need for you to say it — your mom and I will protect Xiao Juan too. As for you, brat, don't you dare do anything out of line while Xiao Juan is pregnant, or I'll take a long-distance bus down to Guangzhou and break your legs!"

Wang Dashan gave a dry hehe laugh:

"Dad, rest assured, I have my limits; I definitely won't do that kind of thing!"

But Wang Zhanggen said:

"Don't speak so absolutely; I know you young people — you're the worst at holding back!"

Then he also said:

"Give the phone to Xiao Juan; I want to say a couple of sentences to her."

Wang Dashan handed the phone to Du Xiaojuan:

"Wife, my dad wants to say a couple of sentences to you."

"What does he want to say to me?" Du Xiaojuan took the phone.

"Who knows; you know his temper. If he says something unpleasant, you absolutely must not take it to heart."

Wang Dashan was worried Wang Zhanggen would misspeak, so he said this line in advance.

Du Xiaojuan took the call:

"Hello, Dad."

Wang Zhanggen's voice came from the other end:

"Xiao Juan, Dashan says you're pregnant — is it true?"

"It's true."

"You must take good care of your body; absolutely don't overwork like before. If that brat Dashan bullies you, you must tell me at once — I'll come help you break his legs!"

Du Xiaojuan couldn't help laughing out loud:

"Dad, rest assured, Dashan treats me very well; he never bullies me!"

Wang Zhanggen spoke again:

"How about you don't go to work from now on? Just stay home and nurture the pregnancy; let Dashan support you!"

Although Du Xiaojuan did not agree with Wang Zhanggen's suggestion, she did not refute him to his face, but said:

"Okay, I'll discuss it with Dashan later. Anything else?"

"Right — now that you're pregnant, eat less outside food; outside food isn't clean. I saw on the news that many shops use gutter oil. Cook more at home; if you don't want to cook, make Dashan cook for you!"

"Okay, Dad; we'll eat at home more from now on."

"By the way, we just pressed fresh peanut oil at home; how about I personally deliver it to you another day? And I'll slaughter a few old hens to send down for you to stew soup — now that you're pregnant, you should supplement more!"

"No need, no need; it's such a long distance, having you deliver it would be too much trouble!"

"Then let Dashan drive back to pick it up; how about that?"

Miss Du felt a bit like crying and laughing; she thought for a moment, then said:

"Alright, then let Dashan go back and get it."

After hanging up Wang Zhanggen's call, Miss Du handed the phone back to Wang Dashan:

"Say, when did your dad become so talkative? Never saw him this chatty before!"

In Miss Du's impression, Wang Zhanggen was a typical rural taciturn old man — few words, low EQ, and he'd fly off the handle at the slightest disagreement.

But today, his every word and action toward Miss Du shattered her stereotyped impression of him.

Unexpectedly, this old man actually knows how to care for someone!

Although his care is a bit stiff, it all comes from the heart!

"What did he say to you?" Wang Dashan hurriedly asked.

"He said if you bully me, I should tell him, and then he'll come help me break your legs." Miss Du couldn't help laughing; she continued: "He also said I shouldn't work anymore, just nurture the pregnancy at ease, and let you support me and cook for me. Also he said he'd send our home-pressed peanut oil down; I told him not to, it's a long trip and the travel expenses alone would be a lot; then he said to let you drive back to get it, and bring a few old hens down to stew soup for me. I couldn't refuse him, so I agreed."

Wang Dashan laughed helplessly:

"My dad's just like that. When I was little, he'd always threaten to break my legs at the drop of a hat; he's probably said it no less than a hundred-odd times. Now I'm this old and he still says he'll break my legs."

Miss Du smiled:

"Looks like you've got quite a few legs, after all these years you actually still have two legs left."

Wang Dashan's face was full of embarrassment, at this time he said again:

"He told you to compare with going to work, just listen to it, but if you really don't want to go to work, that's also okay, just afraid you won't be willing."

Miss Du asked:

"Making me cook and prepare dishes every day, you'd be willing too?"

Wang Dashan immediately said:

"Why wouldn't I be willing? As long as you don't dislike my cooking being unpalatable, I can cook for you every day!"

Miss Du then said:

"Then tomorrow you go back to Hometown and bring Peanut Oil down, your dad said a lot of things that might be wrong, but one sentence was very right, eating Outside food too much is indeed not good, now that you're Pregnant you should cook more yourself, that way it'll be better for Infant."

Wang Dashan nodded:

"Okay, then I'll go home tomorrow!"

In a blink it arrived at the next day morning.

Wang Dashan said a word to Hu Wanjia, today not going to Company, whatever matters he handle himself is fine.

Then drove home.

Before setting off, he also gave Wang Zhanggen a call, saying returning home this morning.

Wang Zhanggen learned this news, immediately had Li Xiulan kill chicken.

Kill one Rooster to worship gods.

Kill three old hens, let Wang Dashan bring down to give Miss Du Stewed Chicken Soup to drink.

Li Xiulan learned Eldest Brother was returning today, was also happy beyond measure.

Immediately rolled up sleeves to work.

Full of spirit.

Most importantly, Eldest Brother's wife is Pregnant, this is a sky-great Good Thing!

This matter reached Wang Erhai's ears, Wang Erhai also sincerely felt happy for his own Eldest Brother.

At the same time, Inner Heart envied endlessly.

Own Eldest Brother, has career has career, has virtuous wife has virtuous wife, before long will also have children!

Truly career, love, family, all aspects extremely perfect.

Unlike self, dated several relationships, all ended in Defeat.

Company opened in County Town, built high-rise then collapsed.

Still Eldest Brother gave him several million to wipe buttocks, only then let him land safely, otherwise his Lifetime would've been ruined long ago.

Recently he took over Town's New Era Restaurant, also own Eldest Brother helped pay money.

As the saying goes, without Contrast there is no Harm.

Compared with Eldest Brother, Wang Erhai felt, his own life, simply a thorough Defeat!

However Wang Erhai did not therefore become dispirited, in his heart secretly vowed, he afterwards must make a comeback.

No Matter What, must mix out an Expression!

Cannot give his Eldest Brother Shame!
