Chapter 67: Despair (7)

(11) Children who come as scheduled

I had almost fallen in love with his faded youthful face, and I was determined to bury my dream of becoming a calculating little woman who calculated firewood, rice, oil and salt, and started from scratch.

At this time, I found that the child had arrived as scheduled.

He didn't look happy, but said, "Now it's okay for you to tell others about our affairs."

He was referring to the rest of the editorial office we first met. My teachers were really surprised and unanimously said: If you ask for advice in advance, I will definitely not agree.

But you say he's the best-looking, I say, I don't see it! I complained to one of the seniors who was also a radio fellow.

How many years can the appearance last? The teacher asked rhetorically, once you are deformed, what do you rely on to maintain your marriage? Now it's okay, child! Like you two who don't drink alcohol and haven't taken birth control pills, the first child must be a boy, so take care of it.

The teacher was the editor of the Central People's Radio when he first founded the broadcasting station to Taiwan. After I retired, I was hired to edit a book at a publishing house, and she said that I had a noble temperament and was especially good at listening to the advice of my elders, so she had high expectations for me.

I told him what the teacher said about the boy, but he sighed: It's all the same, it's just one more man who loves you, and I have no status. After saying that, he actually shed tears.

I feel very abnormal, the men in movies and television are happy to pick up their wives and turn around, and listen to their stomachs or something, how can there be such a melancholy father-to-be.

There must be something I don't know. He must have been hiding something from me, and my heart was filled with fear.

(12) Fragile love

The hunch was really good, and he saw that I didn't have any pregnancy reaction, and that I had a good appetite and slept well every day, so he said that he wanted to confess an important thing to me. He had intended to never tell me about it himself, until I found out for myself.

My mind was racing and I wondered if something was going to bring me down?

Could it be that he had already married and had children in his hometown? Their children in the countryside were precocious, and they were also fashionable to marry and have children early. But I immediately denied it, no matter how bad my interview level is, it will not be too wrong, and I will not be a "second wife" in a daze! Besides, the ancestors will not just be a test, but will intervene.

The ancestors had actually intervened, they already had children, and I hadn't had a chance to meet my in-laws yet, which was almost incredible.

Other than that, self-confidence doesn't make me lose my temper, so I say, "It's okay, you say, I can stand it."

He took out the ID card that I was familiar with and said—

My birthday is December 19th of the lunar calendar......

My body immediately went numb, and I couldn't move for a long time.

Do you want me to show you a perpetual calendar?" he said with a pitiful look at me.

Idiot! I gritted my teeth! Everyone knew that it was a spring famine! Not only would I not get a grain of rice in their house, but I would have to stick it upside down for the rest of my life!

Oh my God! I fell to my knees in front of the portrait of my ancestors.

I was the shortest-lived bride in the world, and I became an expectant mother after my honeymoon.

I was the most desperate bride in the world, and I picked and chose all over the country to finally get a fake!!
