My Happy Daily Life After Being Reborn-Chapter 297 - 18 Another One

After that farce had ended, Lin Xiaoguai and the others were somewhat at a loss.

Luo Yufang sighed and said, "That family really has no manners, family scandals should not be aired in public, even if they need to argue, there is no need to take it outside, right? They could have done whatever behind closed doors."

"I think they did it on purpose." Seeing the puzzled faces of the others, Lin Xiaoguai spoke up to explain, "Lu Rong’s mother made such threats, she obviously thinks it’s better to air them outside than at home."

The others suddenly understood, and Zhu Huixi said with awe, "With such a powerful mother protecting her, Lu Rong really has a good life."

A good life?

Lin Xiaoguai sighed to herself, that was not necessarily true. She intuitively felt that someone as outstanding as Lu Xiao was definitely not a woman who would be content being a mistress.

It was not that she was ambitious, on the contrary, Lin Xiaoguai felt that Lu Xiao becoming the third party in Yu Bingliang’s marriage had some backstory to it.

Such a woman, her pride was etched into her very bones.

Otherwise, how could Lu Rong turn out the way she is now?

To say that Lu Xiao could not teach a child, Lin Xiaoguai would not believe it, but what if she did not want to teach? She might not be able to hate her own flesh and blood, but the love she could give was also limited.

So Lu Rong turned out this way, but Lu Xiao would still fight for her daughter’s future well-being. As for Lu Rong’s younger sister, there was not much to see for the time being, but given her previous fight with Huang Xue Mei, no one would believe she had any upbringing.

"Looking at it, who knows what kind of trouble Lu Rong has encountered at her in-laws’." Zhu Huixi sighed.

"Don’t worry, with a mother like that, Lu Rong won’t suffer a big loss," Lin Xiaoguai said indifferently.

In the end, between fortune and misfortune, Lu Rong still belonged to the former.

When Shen Chi returned that evening, Lin Xiaoguai did not bring up anything about Lu Rong; after all, it had nothing to do with her.

It was Luo Yufang, however, who got excited by witnessing such "dramas of gratitude and grudges" for the first time and enthusiastically described the scene to Shen Chi.

Shen Chi looked indifferent, evidently not too concerned about Lu Rong’s situation either. After Luo Yufang finished speaking, he turned to Lin Xiaoguai and said, "I’ve found an experienced midwife, agreed to pick her up tomorrow."

"The person is reliable, right? I hope it’s not a young woman," Luo Yufang said anxiously upon hearing this.

"Rest assured, she’s an old lady in her eighties, no longer helps with childbirth, but was well-known in the area in her younger days, she alone has delivered five pairs of twins. Now, she might lack the strength for delivering babies, but the most important thing for determining the baby’s position is experience," Shen Chi explained slowly.

"That’s good," Luo Yufang breathed a sigh of relief, then remembered something, "Oh no, the mutton is still on the stove!" freewebnoveℓ.com

Saying this, she hurried off to the kitchen.

Lin Xiaoguai and Shen Chi exchanged glances, both feeling a bit helpless.

"By the way, do you know any skilled construction teams?" Lin Xiaoguai asked.

Upon hearing this, Shen Chi paused, then realized, "You’re planning to build a farm?" and then frowned, "Shouldn’t we put this off for now, wait until after you give birth to take on such tasks?"

"It’s not for building right now, just to get things ready so that when things are less hectic, we can start construction immediately," Lin Xiaoguai spoke softly.

Shen Chi thought for a moment and said, "There’s no problem with finding a construction team, I remember the military has one. Do you need me to arrange the purchase of building materials?"

"No need, I’ll handle it myself." Seeing his questioning look, Lin Xiaoguai explained, "A classmate of mine’s family is in the building material business, I have already agreed with them to buy materials at a slight mark-up from the cost price."

This classmate really existed, and the purchase of building materials was real, but what she did not say was that it was just a small part of the materials, the rest she needed to buy from the exchange store.

"Do we have enough money on hand? If not, I can arrange to get some more money in a short while," Shen Chi looked at her and said.

"It’s enough, I’ll ask you if I need more." In fact, Shen Chi had brought back a significant amount of money over the years, and together with the money Lin Xiaoguai had been earning from selling flowers, it was truly a fortune other people wouldn’t even dare to dream of.

Four months later, Lin Xiaoguai’s belly swelled as if it had been inflated, and by the fifth or sixth month, her belly was as big as someone else’s at full term, causing her family to watch anxiously, afraid she might have a bump or bruise that could cause premature labor.

Moreover, because their focus was on the pregnant woman, the Shen Family also had a rather subdued year.

Now, wherever Lin Xiaoguai was, no one dared to leave her alone.

"What did the midwife say?" One day, as Shen Chi massaged Lin Xiaoguai’s cramping legs, he asked.

"She said the baby is positioned well, if things continue this way, a natural birth shouldn’t be a problem," Lin Xiaoguai, feeling sleepy, responded groggily.
