Become a burden in a period novel

Chapter 523 Discussion about children

Should we name it?

Xu Huaici looked at the somewhat thin boy hiding behind Li's mother and said, "Let's call him Dongliang."

He then looked at Li's mother, "Not only can he support your family, but he can also become a pillar of the nation in the future!"

Hearing this, Li's mother was very happy. "This is a good name, a good name! From now on, we'll call him Dongliang!"

Although she wasn't very educated, she had attended literacy classes and naturally knew what the word "pillar of the nation" meant.

So Li's mother and Xiao Dongliang stayed with the Xu family. Xu Huaici found someone to help them move so that they wouldn't have to work hard.

There was now a child in their group, and Qin Wangshu was also talking to Aunt Luo about the child.

Aunt Luo mentioned the child not to pressure him to have one, but because Yang Mingye had finished his honeymoon and returned to the army, and she was a little worried about Qin Wangshu.

Newlyweds are always very close, and since they had no experience, Aunt Luo was a little worried about Qin Wangshu's health.

"I..." Qin Wangshu was also unaware of this issue. She naturally knew that she would have children after marriage, but she had never really paid attention to this problem.

“You should be a little more careful these days. I’m not trying to pressure you, but I’m busy with my career. Even if you were pregnant, I wouldn’t be able to take care of you. I know you have your own plans,” Aunt Luo said, placing her hand on the back of Qin Wangshu’s hand. Her warm palm, covered with thin calluses, reassured Qin Wangshu.

"Whether or not to have children, and when to have children, is a decision you two should discuss. You are the ones who live your own lives, so don't worry about what others say."

She herself had heard a lot of gossip and didn't want Qin Wangshu to be hurt by those words again.

"Mother, you are so kind!" Qin Wangshu was deeply moved.

People at that time believed that having many children brought good fortune. Even after the implementation of family planning, they still wanted to have more children, and some even went into hiding to have a son.

Qin Wangshu really didn't expect Aunt Luo to be so open-minded, considering that Yang Mingye was Aunt Luo's only son.

"Is that all?" Aunt Luo patted Qin Wangshu's hand again. "Although I am your mother-in-law, our relationship is more than just that of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. I really want you to live well. In addition, Mingye is not often at home and cannot take care of you, so you should think more about yourself."

Aunt Luo liked Qin Wangshu very much, especially since Qin Wangshu encouraged her to work and help her find her own value. Now, her business is growing bigger and bigger, and she has gained more experience and understands that women shouldn't be confined to the mundane details of daily life.

Qin Wangshu is an outstanding person. Her businesses support many people, and she also does business abroad. Now is a critical period for her, and if she gets pregnant and has a child, it will delay many things.

However, if fate brings them together, Aunt Luo believes Qin Wangshu will definitely not give up. But Qin Wangshu has no experience, and she is afraid that their neglect will hurt Qin Wangshu.

"Then I'll go to the hospital for a check-up in a few days." Currently, there are no pregnancy test strips or pregnancy test sticks available in China; if you want to determine if you are pregnant, you'll need to go to the hospital.

"Okay, I'll go with you when we go."

It was only after Aunt Luo mentioned her pregnancy that Qin Wangshu realized she was really married and that pregnancy was one of the issues she would soon face.

"Does Mother want me to get pregnant?" Qin Wangshu asked.

"That depends on whether you're ready. Okay, I'll go prepare dinner. Is there anything you'd like to eat?"

"I want to eat noodles, let's have noodles for dinner tonight."

"Okay, I'll go knead the dough!"
