Chapter 355: Chapter 351: Er Mei: Holding My Family’s Child!

In the past two or three days, Sun Xiaolian still hasn’t given up seeking Wen Ran’s help.

With her many inquiries, she came to know that Wen Ran was indeed holding a pair of twins in her arms.

"Child," an aunt witnessed the whole incident firsthand that day.

Caught in the middle, not knowing what good she should say.

From anyone’s perspective, everyone seems right.

The young girl sincerely cared for her family, hoping her brother and sister-in-law could soon have a child.

She wished for the household to be peaceful and that lovers wouldn’t be torn apart.

But looking from the position of the twins’ mother.

All her suspicions were well-grounded.

The train was a mixed crowd, all sorts of people were there, and as the mother, she naturally had to prioritize her children’s safety.

Being wary of strangers is expected.

If she refused to let the young girl’s brother and sister-in-law hold the children to try their luck, it’s understandable too.

Moreover, the children’s mother wasn’t one to be trifled with, she may appear weak and unremarkable, but her hands showed fierce decisiveness.

"Good child," the aunt knew there was no point in clashing with Wen Ran, and simply advised Sun Xiaolian, "Just listen to this auntie’s words, don’t provoke their family anymore.

Besides, the mother of the children had some valid points.

If you have money to spare for red envelopes, instead of chasing after their fleeting luck, it would be better to save the money and spend it on your brother and sister-in-law’s health.

With money, you can heal their bodies so they can give birth to healthy little ones."

These words made sense.

Sun Xiaolian understood too.

But...

The brother and sister-in-law were just made up.

Selling children of her own, not to mention the harm to the body, the cycle is too long.

Birthing naturally is nowhere near as fast.

After all, infants don’t remember, whoever raises them, they see as parents and are devoted to them.

Sun Xiaolian hung her head, sobbing, "But, we really meant no harm, we just want to hold the children.

If they find the money insufficient, we can, we can even add more money."

"Crash~"

The door beside them opened, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl holding a child, not caring about the man’s interception by her side, looked excited, "Are you serious?"

"Er Mei!" The man frowned, "Stop messing around, give me the child."

"I won’t!"

Er Mei stood up with the child and ran straight to Sun Xiaolian, "If I let you hold the child, can you give me that red envelope?"

Fearing Sun Xiaolian would refuse, she half-squatted with the child, showing the child’s face to Sun Xiaolian.

"Though it’s not twins, it’s still a boy child. If your brother and sister-in-law hold the child, they get a boy, surely thanks to my little nephew!"

Watching her enthusiasm, Sun Xiaolian almost laughed to death.

How could there be such a foolish person?

"Enough!" The man chased after them, "Give me the child."

"I won’t!" Er Mei complained, "Xu Changhe, since you got married, your focus has been all over the place.

Before, you used to give me three to five bucks a month, and I thought that as I grew up, you should give more.

But what did you do? Not even a penny anymore, and you’re saying that as your sister, it’s our parents’ duty, not yours."

She glared at Xu Changhe resentfully, "Such a load of fancy words, totally unlike something you could say.

If I’m not mistaken, it’s probably my sister-in-law taught you that.

She’s so stingy with me, so why can’t I use her child to earn myself some pocket money?

Besides, don’t forget it was you who begged me to watch over your child."

Xu Changhe fell silent, he sighed, "Er Mei, I’ve gotten married and now have the duty to support the family.

Previously, being unmarried, my expenses were less, so I could give you some money, but now, having a child, can’t you try to understand me a bit?"

Er Mei was getting annoyed, impatiently, "Yes, yes, I know, I understand you, fine.

But can you please understand my situation right now, okay? I just want to earn a red envelope now. If you continue to block me, don’t blame me for getting mad at you."

Xu Changhe sighed, tacitly agreeing.

Sun Xiaolian looked at Er Mei, eyebrows slightly raised. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

Alright, initially thought after a hustle of two, three days, a dead end would be met.

Now this one’s offered up, though not twins, something’s better than nothing.

However, twins, two or thirty bucks is quite good.

A single child, not really valuable.

Sun Xiaolian sobbed, "Oh? But I want twins."

"Tsk!" Er Mei held the child, arguing with reason.

Seriously, "I’d say you’re very stubborn.

Why stick to twins or not? What if you encounter twins, but end up with two girls, what then?

Raising girls is pointless, daughters once married, are like spilled water.

Struggled to grow them up, they marry off, isn’t that a waste of effort?

This one’s better, as long as there’s a child, guaranteed to be a boy, succeeding with a boy.

Your brother and sister-in-law’s task would be complete, and they would remember your achievements as the sister-in-law, how good for you!

If you think it’s too much money, I won’t ask for that, just give me twenty bucks."

Er Mei felt she’s made concession, eagerly waiting for Sun Xiaolian to hand over the money.

Unexpectedly, Sun Xiaolian wasn’t willing.

"Ah?" She hesitated, "There are quite a few around us who’ve birthed boys, my sister-in-law has held quite a few, none have worked."

Er Mei: "?"

She was briefly stunned.

Thought, the sure money before receiving went flying.

She testily said, "Hey? How can you say that! You did mention it’s holding children from your surroundings, is it the same as this?"

Xu Changhe seized the chance, "Alright, Er Mei, stop talking, hurry and take the child back."

"Why are you rushing?"

Er Mei unwillingly said, "Anyways, I feel those before had no luck, my little nephew truly has luck, my brother before had a monthly wage of thirty-two bucks.

Since having my little nephew, his wage doubled instantly!"

She proudly raised her head, "People in our brigade say my little nephew is the reincarnation of a lucky spreading child.

Born with a bowl (of fortune)!"

The words at the door, faintly passed through not-so-soundproof door.

Xiao Chenye frowned, "Ranran, I feel something’s off."

Wen Ran lowered her gaze, thinking, "You feel it too, do you?"

"Yes."

Shen Yueyue approached, murmuring, "Do you think they could be human traffickers?

Their attitude towards the child seems overly attentive."
