Originally he planned to buy a cow, but thinking that he had to buy the land, he decided to buy a milk goat first. Besides, even if they buy a cow now, they couldn’t finish so much milk every day. He didn’t want the little bun to keep nagging again.
"Really? That’s great. If you can really remove its awful smell, goat’s milk is really something good. Jingxuan, I know you may hate to hear this, but I still have to remind you. It’s true that you have earned some money recently. You can buy anything you think you need. But as for those unnecessary things, you better restrain yourself. In the future, there are a lot of places that need money. You shouldn’t save some for yourself. We have no special skills and could do little for you and your brothers. So you should calculate when you spend money.”
Lady Wang doesn't know he earned a one hundred and twenty tales of silver today. Seeing that today he bought piglets and chickens, it was only reasonable she had a word of it. But Ling Jingxuan didn’t show any trace of impatience. He took the initiative to hold his hands, “What are you talking about, mom? With such parents like you and dad, we couldn’t be happier. How could we…Hmm? Mom, you haven’t had your period for a long time, right?”
In the middle of the sentence, Ling Jingxuan suddenly pressed her hand on the table, fingers gently resting on her pulse.
He just asked that kind of thing before so many people, Lady Wang couldn’t help blushing, stammering, “Yes, two months, I guess. But my period often doesn’t come regularly. So it won’t be a problem.”
"Hehe...It’s fine. Congratulations, mom, you and dad are going to be parents again.”
Withdrawing his hand, Ling Jingxuan cupped his hands wearing a smile. That is life. Soon, their family would have one more little prince or princess.
pαndα`noνɐ1--сoМ "Huh?"
Ling Chenglong and his wife both wide opened their eyes, so big that it could accommodate an egg. Ling Jingpeng who was standing aside said happily after coming to his sense, “Great, dad, mom! If you bring us a little sister, our life will be happier!”
The biggest son and third son of Ling family both had a daughter, so he had long been expecting that his mom could give birth to a little sister for him. But when his mom gave birth to him and his second elder brother, her body was too weak and she didn’t get enough nutrition. So the doctor said it would be very hard for her to get pregnant again. But never expected...he would finally have a little sister for real!
"So humiliating. You are so big and I get pregnant now..."
Speaking of which, Lady Wang covered her face, and the ears exposing showed faint red color. Ling Jingxuan and his younger brother gave each other a look. Then he said, “What’s there to be feel humiliated about? You and dad are only in your thirties. Isn’t it a normal thing to get pregnant? We are happy for you.”
"Yeah, mom, you have no idea how much I want a little sister."
"Look at what they are talking about, Long, look at them."
After they said these, Lady Wang only felt more humiliated, and then threw herself at Ling Chenglong for help. But Ling Chenglong only gave a silly laugh while scratching his head, “It’s a good thing. We should feel happy. We should feel happy…”
“Haha…”
The two brothers laughed so hard, while Lady Wang gave her silly husband a stare, then couldn’t help smiling. Recently they are so blessed. One good thing after another. So their good days are really coming?
"Mom, you can't do farm work any more, better not housework too. You are not the only daughter-in-law of Ling family. You know, the first three months are very important. Just in case. We could never be careful enough. I will go to town to get some antiabortifacient herbs for you some other day. Your body has weakened a lot when giving birth to them two. So you should be extremely careful this time.
After the joke, Ling Jingxuan suddenly became serious. Fortunately he grabbed her hand and felt her pulse, otherwise she might even have no idea when she had a misbirth due to hard farm work. Thinking about yesterday’s thing, Ling Jingxuan still felt scared. Fortunately everything was fine, otherwise he’d definitely let those people pay!
"Oh, I know. Today didn’t we drop the farm work and come here? Your dad and I have thought it through. Things we should do, we wouldn’t stall, but things that are supposed not to be us to do, we wouldn’t struggle to do like before.”
After what had happened yesterday, she had seen it through. No matter what they did for the family, they could never forgive them, let alone feeling grateful. Since it doesn’t make any difference whether they do it or not, why not save some energy?
"It’s supposed to be like that. The weaker you are, the harder they bully you. Dad, mom, it’s not that I’m asking you to be unfilial to your parents, but being filial also has skills, or it’d be silly filial piety. The most important thing is, you should steal other’s chance to show their filial piety, right?”
Finally his joking rhetorical question amused everyone, and four of them smiled at each other heartily. As they talked, the sky turned dark, and the herbs for Ling Jinghan were also decocted well. Seeing that the two buns hadn’t come back, Ling Jingxuan felt a bit worried, so he went out together with his parents.”
"What? They went away already?"
When he knocked opened the gate of Zhao Dalong’s house, Han Fei told him that after sending Tiewa back, the two buns went home. Ling Jingxuan’s face immediately turned pale, a storm rapidly formed under his deep eyes. And the smile on Ling Jingpeng who came with him and his parents instantly vanished. As Zhao Dalong, who heard them, came out and heart this, his face also sank, feeling something was wrong. Both he and Han Fei looked at Ling Jingxuan worriedly.
"Damn it! Jingpeng, do you know anything about Ling Jingwei?"
Suddenly looking back, Ling Jingxuan showed a murderous look. When they came over, he specially paid extra attention on the road, only afraid he would miss the buns or what on the way. Since Han Fei said they already went back, they should have gone. The only explanation is they were taken away by someone using force. And the one who took them away could only be his big uncle’s wife, or how to explain their abnormality?
"Jingwei? Have you seen him?"
Lady Wang took a step forward, eyes brows tightly knitted, apparently she also knew what happened. Ling Jingxuan twitched his mouth, “We met him yesterday in the market. Mom, what did you and dad hide from me?”
"But, mom didn’t mean to hide it from you, after all it was just some random talk, so I didn’t put it in my heart.”
"So, what happened?"
Ling Jingxuan really couldn’t stand their procrastination, and his voice deepened a lot. Ling Jingpeng was afraid his mother couldn’t explain it clearly, so he hurriedly pulled his mother aside and then looked up at Ling Jingxuan and said, “Ge, there’s something you don’t know. Brother Jingwei and his wife have been married for years but still don’t have any kid. Normally, in that case, he could have a concubine. But my sister-in-law didn’t agree. For that variety store, he could only swallow it. About two or three months ago, he suddenly asked his father to our parents, saying that his son wants to adopt your kids, our parents turned him down immediately…but…Ge, is it really brother Jingwei?”
That is like abducting! How could they ever do this?
"Quite possible. I also didn’t tell you something. Aunt Ling came to me this morning, saying she wanted to visit me and my kids. Through her words she was apparently trying to cotton up to me. You know what kind of person I am. Of course I didn’t show her a good face. Now think it back. She should have told Ling Jingwei, or discussed it with her husband and knew I wouldn’t agree. So they took risk to take them away using force. Hum! How dare they touch my kids? Jingpeng, you wait here for me here. We’ll go to town later.”
Speaking of which, Ling Jingxuan turned to Zhao Dalong and Han Fei and said," Brother Zhao, please send us to the town.
"No problem."
If he still had no idea what was going on, he was a true fool. Zhao Dalong nodded, handed Tiewa to Han Fei and went to the backyard.
"Jingxuan, how about we go to Ling family to check. Maybe the kids are there.”
Holding Ling Jingxuan who was about to run home, Lady Wang asked anxiously. She never expected they even dared abduct the kids under the daylight!
"Impossible. If Lady Li has a lit bit of brain, she wouldn’t take two breathing kids home. If I guess it correctly, the kids should be at Ling Jingwei’s place in the town. Dad, mom, don’t let anyone know after going home. Just pretend nothing happened. Trust me. I will take the kids back safe and sound.
To kidnap his children under his nose? He would like to see if they were really brave enough to be so ambitious!
"Hmm. You two be careful! If there’s really something, report to the yamen. I don’t believe they could escape from laws.”
"I know, dad, you take mom home first."
Speaking of which, Ling Jingxuan turned to run home. Since he was going to town to visit ‘his relatives’, how could he go empty-handed? Hum! He couldn’t give birth, so he laid his eyes on his kids. Son of a bitch! If he didn’t get them crippled or what, he’d write his name Xuan Jingling!
