Of course, Li Shu had a better choice now and that kind of thinking was just a thought.
Fortunately, her youngest brother’s wife was due in 2 months. 

Li Shu never considered her siblings’ opinions at all.
In her opinion, they were able to have such a good opportunity.
There would be no objections. 

Two months later, the Li family’s youngest daughter-in-law gave birth to a boy. 

Li Shu was disappointed that it wasn’t a girl.
However, when she held the child in her arms, the complicated feeling turned into her heart softening. 

Forget it.
A boy was a boy.
She didn’t dislike him. 

Li Shu’s eyes were red and she sniffed.
“Dad, mum, if you don’t choose… It’s him!” 

Mother and Father Li saw that Li Shu had chosen their own grandson, they were happy.
“Good!” 

Li Shu’s younger brother, Li Wei, was a little puzzled.
“Mum, dad, second older sister, what are you talking about? What do you mean by ‘it’s him’?” 

Mother Li wiped away her tears.
“A-Wei, it’s a good thing.
Your second older sister wants to adopt your son.
From now on, your son will be the son of the regimental commander.” 

Li Wei was stunned.
“What did you say?!” 

A member of the family of Li Wei’s daughter-in-law was nearby and overheard this.
That person immediately said a few words to Li Wei’s mother- and father-in-law.
Li Wei’s mother-in-law snatched her grandson from Li Shu’s arms! “My daughter exchanged her life for the child.
Who are you to say you will adopt him? If your Li family doesn’t want this child, we do! This child can have the same surname as our Qian family!” 

Then, Li Wei’s brother-in-law spat at Li Wei.
“Bah! You useless man! How shameless are you?! Are you that short of money? You can’t even feed a child?” 

Li Wei was full of grievances.
“No, I didn’t know about this! I really didn’t! Mum, dad, why didn’t you discuss such a big matter with me?! I won’t agree to this.
I definitely won’t agree to this!” 

Li Shu’s eyes widened.
She looked at the Qian family.
“Li Wei, you don’t want to? Are you out of your mind?! Do you know what this means?”

Li Wei was actually willing inwardly, but in front of his in-laws, he didn’t dare to admit it.
Otherwise, not only would he not be able to keep his marriage, but his life would be in danger.
He also complained about his parents.
If they had told him earlier, then there would have been some time to sort this out and it wouldn’t have ended up like this. 

“Second older sister, this is my first child.
I can’t bear it.
You have so many nephews.
Eldest brother and second older brother have kids.
You can choose them,” said Li Wei. 

Li Shu reddened.
She didn’t expect that there were people in this world who didn’t know good from bad.
“Okay, forget it.
You better not regret this!” 

She then turned around and went to leave.
She didn’t expect that a member of the Qian family was there and she bumped into them.
Li Shu fell awkwardly and felt a little pain in her lower abdomen. 

She frowned and clutched her stomach. 

Seeing this, Mother and Father Li quickly supported her.
“Second girl, what’s wrong? Hurry, go see a doctor.” 

Then, Mother and Father Li left to help Li Shu see a doctor. 

When the Qian family saw this, there was a lot of discussion. 

Li Wei was also a little unhappy inwardly.
Wasn’t it just a light bump? What was there to be so nervous about? And his parents… How could they not tell what was more important? They were just abandoning his in-laws’ family.
How could he raise his head there in the future? This was the talk of a lifetime! 

Mother and Father Li helped Li Shu go to the clinic.
The results of the examination made them stunned.
“What did you say? I’m pregnant? Really? Is it possible you are mistaken?” Li Shu was excited and was a little incoherent. 

Mother and Father Li couldn’t believe their ears.
They stared at the doctor in excitement. 

The doctor was a little unhappy.
“Although I’m not a professional obstetrician or gynaecologist, I can still take a simple pulse.
If you don’t believe me, then go to the ob-gyn department for a check-up.” 

Li Shu stood up excitedly, afraid that she would injure her stomach if she moved too vigorously.
She carefully supported her waist.
“Go to the ob-gyn department!” 

Finally, the ultrasound results came out and Li Shu really was pregnant.
She had been for about a month and a half.

Li Shu held the report and cried with joy.  

Mother and Father Li stood behind Li Shu and wiped away their tears. 

When Mother and Father Li sent Li Shu back to the Lu family house.
It was only when they left did they remember the people back at the hospital. 

The couple hurried back to the hospital. 

When faced with the accusatory gazes of the Qian family, Mother Li snorted.
“Don’t look at me like that! Don’t worry, nobody will take away your grandson.
My second girl is pregnant.
Our second girl is benevolent and wanted to adopt a child.
This kind of good thing should be offered to the family first.
We didn’t expect that some people wouldn’t appreciate it.
Well, good people are rewarded and my family’s second girl has a child.” 

Li Wei was a little embarrassed.
“Mum, second older sister really is pregnant?” 

Mother Li glanced at him proudly.
“Of course!” Then, she deliberately said loudly, “You regret it? It’s too late to have regrets.” 

Li Wei actually really regretted it, but he didn’t dare to say anything. 

As for the Lu family, they were very surprised to learn that Li Shu was pregnant, especially Mother Lu.
Li Shu was the one who said she couldn’t give birth, but now she was pregnant. 

But, when Li Shu showed the ultrasound to Mother Lu, Mother Lu believed her.
Maybe it was a quack doctor who misdiagnosed her before! Anyway, Li Shu was pregnant, which was a good thing. 

Mother Lu said with a smile, “Why don’t you call and tell Lu Wei the good news?!” 

Li Shu nodded shyly and was about to make a phone call, but her phone rang.
It turned out that Lu Wei had been successfully promoted. 

“Double happiness has come!” Mother Lu said, excitedly. 

Li Shu felt moved and she touched her stomach.
“I just found out that, with this little one, Old Lu was promoted.
What a coincidence!” 

Mother Lu glanced at her and knew what she was thinking.
She smiled warmly.
“If you are pregnant with a girl, then that would be great.
Then, she would be our family’s lucky little star.”

Li Shu was secretly delighted and patted her stomach proudly.
God treated her well and she would definitely make her dream come true.
This must be a daughter! 

Due to the matter of adopting and pregnancy, Li Shu didn’t write to Li Su for several months.
Li Su didn’t care.
She was very busy every day.
Xuechen was teething, had a fever, and was crying.
Her daughter was very pitiful. 

Li Su had to prepare lessons again and take care of her family. 

This morning, Li Su suddenly opened her eyes and looked out the window.
She rose quickly.
She had slept late. 

She didn’t expect to see Xuechen squirming on the blanket and smoke from something cooking on the stove when she was in a hurry to get dressed and head out.
Qiao Zhi heard movement and ran out.
“Mum, you’re awake.
I’ve cooked sweet potato congee with milk.
You can eat it right away.
Mum, hurry and wash up.” 

Li Su was a little surprised and moved.
How did they wash and cook the rice? Madam Qiao was blind and Qiao Zhi was so young.
There were also sweet potatoes.
How were they washed and peeled? 

When it was time to eat breakfast, Li Su took a bite of the sweet potato and ate a mouthful of mud.
She felt a little helpless. 

“Mum, I’ll make breakfast in the future!” said Li Su. 

Going from a frugal life to a life of luxury was easy, but the other way was difficult.
Madam Qiao was used to eating meals that Li Su made.
She also found it difficult to eat this sweet potato congee. 

Qiao Zhi was the only one who didn’t dislike it.
He blindly immersed himself in the joy of cooking something with his own hands.
He ate happily. 

Qiao Xuechen, who was in a simple walker, cried out unwillingly, probably because of the smell of food. 

Although Li Su knew that it wasn’t good for a child to use the walker so early, but she had no other choice.
Fortunately, Xuechen had no strength so she could only sit in it.
She wouldn’t be able to move around for the time being. 

Li Su quickly finished breakfast.
When she saw that there was still some congee left in the pot, she dug out some unwashed sweet potatoes.
She turned around and took some green vegetables from her space, blanched them, drained them, then chopped them up before putting them into the pot to cook. 

Xuechen was 6 months old, so she could eat a bit of solid food.
She was really interested in the vegetable congee.
She took a few bites.
It tasted very good.

Over there, Qiao Zhi was happily working.
After breakfast, he was squatting on the ground and washing the dishes. 

Li Su didn’t spoil the child.
When she saw that Qiao Zhi wanted to wash the dishes, she put some water in the basin and let Qiao Zhi play. 

After Li Su fed Xuechen, Qiao Zhi had almost finished washing the bowl.
He was covered in water.
Madam Qiao sat under the porch.
“Are your clothes wet? A-Su, hurry and change Big Zhi’s clothes.” 

Li Su went over to take a look.
The dishes were quite clean.
“Quickly, come here.
I’ll change your clothes.” 

Qiao Zhi stood in front of Li Su, cheerful.
He let Li Su help him change.
“Mum, am I good?” 

“Mm, our Big Zhi is the best.
He can help his mother!” Li Su changed his clothes and kissed him on the cheek. 

Qiao Xuechen, who was next to them, cried out.
Li Su also kissed her cheeks and Qiao Xuechen calmed down. 

Li Su couldn’t help but laugh.
“This little girl knows how to compete for favour at such a young age.” 

Suddenly, someone knocked on the door, saying that someone had sent her an express delivery. 

Li Su opened the door, signed for the delivery, and saw the big box.
She brought the box in, opened it, and found that it contained some clothes and shoes for a little girl.
There was also a letter inside.
Li Su took it out and saw that it was sent by Li Shu. 

The letter said that Li Shu was pregnant and that the Lu family happily hoped that she was carrying a girl.
She bought a lot of girl’s clothing and shoes, but couldn’t store all of them at home.
She thought it was a pity to waste them, so she decided to send some to Li Su since Li Su had a daughter. 

After reading the letter, Li Su nodded.
Lu Mingzhu was still here after all.
There were many things that were different from the original now.
Lu Mingzhu had a different mother and her relationship to Big Zhi was more distant.
Even if she had a kidney disease and needed a transplant, perhaps Big Zhi wouldn’t be suitable. 

It was just that Li Su was still a little worried.
In case the plot was unstoppable, Big Zhi was still Lu Mingzhu’s most suitable donor.
It wasn’t impossible either. 

Not to mention, their family had to stay here.
If they left, then the 50 yuan/month subsidy would be gone.
Besides, Madam Qiao might not be willing to leave.
She couldn’t tell Madam Qiao that her second older sister’s daughter was likely to have a kidney disease in the future, so it was likely they would ask Big Zhi to donate a kidney, therefore they had to go into hiding. 

What should she do?!
