Chapter 1121: Chapter 1121: Expectations (5)
"What are you looking at?"
Liu Xiaoqin walked over, clutching her barely showing belly, and said, "Why are you talking to yourself?"
"Oh come on, sister-in-law, finally you’re here." Liu Qiao Lian laughed as if she’d found a kindred spirit, "What could I be looking at? Just some people cozying up to the Madam of the leader."
The term "Madam of the leader" immediately soured Liu Xiaoqin’s expression.
Although her husband Jiang Jiuming also got a promotion and is now the brigade’s chief of staff, Yang Yunhai is still the top leader.
No matter where it’s talked about, her husband Jiang Jiuming still needs to bow to Yang Yunhai.
Even though, age-wise, he’s quite a few years older than Yang Yunhai.
"Madam of the leader?" Liu Xiaoqin chuckled, "Who knows if that will still be the case in the future."
Even with an engagement, anything can happen before you’re actually married.
"You’re quite open-minded, sister-in-law." Liu Qiao Lian laughed, "Living next door, seeing each other every day, yet you can tolerate it."
"What else can you do if you can’t tolerate it? She’s the leader’s wife." Liu Xiaoqin sneered, "And every day, whether the kids are good or bad, they all end up at her place."
The meaning behind these words was plentiful.
Liu Qiao Lian glanced at Liu Xiaoqin with gossip-filled eyes, "Sister-in-law, really?"
"Really what?" Liu Xiaoqin rolled her eyes at her, "What else would a bunch of brats do inside? Really studying? Don’t kid me; if they were all so obedient, then what’s the point of school?" frёewebηovel.cѳm
Liu Qiao Lian put on a knowing look, "No wonder."
"Despicable, really shameless." She added, "Sister-in-law, you really know your stuff."
"I bet your son will be like that in the future." Liu Qiao Lian gave a thumbs up, "Definitely better than that ’whoever’."
Whoever?
Liu Xiaoqin followed her gaze and saw Yang Yunhai talking to a bunch of new recruits, not knowing what he was saying. Anyway, they looked eager, ready to head to the battlefield to serve the country.
No wonder Jiang Jiuming always says, "Yang Yunhai is great at winning hearts."
They all gazed at him with adoration.
Who knows how many more hearts he’s won over?
Liu Xiaoqin pursed her lips, recalling the look on her husband’s face when he said those words. She thought she didn’t misunderstand.
"I don’t really expect much," Liu Xiaoqin touched her belly, "but since it’s ours, I won’t be like some who give birth and don’t raise them."
Liu Qiao Lian’s smile faltered.
The comment about giving birth and not raising the child has been said about her, regarding her negligence toward her eldest daughter.
But she knew Liu Xiaoqin was actually referring to Wang Shuyun, after all, Yang Yunhai wasn’t raised by his own mother, right?
Even so, he grew up to be so impressive; it’s unreal.
"I wasn’t talking about you, don’t take it to heart." Liu Xiaoqin said, rubbing her belly, "Once this little thing is born, I’ll definitely teach them well."
"Not that I’m lecturing you, but you should pay more attention to your eldest daughter," Liu Xiaoqin scolded, "Though she’s a girl, she’ll still bond with her mother."
"Besides, we’re both women; it’s one thing for men to favor sons, but we shouldn’t be like that."
Haha... as if she’s giving a lecture now.
Liu Qiao Lian silently rolled her eyes in her mind.
As if she herself doesn’t favor sons over daughters?
If this child turns out to be a daughter, let’s see if she can continue to say that!
That would be slapping herself in the face!
