I Bacame the Mother of His Child-Chapter 117: Mentioning Steamed Buns for the First Time
Chapter 117: Chapter 117: Mentioning Steamed Buns for the First Time
Later, Xu Xiuxiu learned that the old man in Aunt Wei’s family was named Ma Tianlong, a highly respected old General who had made tremendous contributions to the country during the desperate Korean War. When Xu Xiuxiu talked to Song Yuanhuan about the old man, Song Yuanhuan always showed a look of admiration, and it was then that Xu Xiuxiu found out the old man had just been transferred from the Capital to the Tiger Wolf Military Region before the New Year.
The outcome for Lu Xiangxiang went without saying, as there was no way she could continue to act high and mighty after provoking Old Sir Zhou’s woman.
Xu Xiuxiu also later found out by word of mouth that, after receiving Old Sir Zhou’s "cordial" phone call, Zhou Yumin immediately issued a transfer order, and the next day, Lu Xiangxiang was transferred from the Cultural Troupe of the Tiger Wolf Military Region in Z city to the neighboring Y city Military District. Her rank went from Major in the Cultural Troupe down to sergeant, plummeting rapidly! When Zhou Jiaki, Lu’s mother, found out, she cried her eyes out, creating a huge scene in Zhou Yumin’s office, but it did not change Lu Xiangxiang’s demotion and reassignment one bit.
Of course, this time Lu Xiangxiang had really hit a steel plate, and Old Sir Zhou, even if he wanted to protect her a bit, was left powerless.
At night, when Xu Xiuxiu mentioned this to Song Yuanhuan, he too sighed, "Our Si Ya is that formidable?" Clearly, Song Yuanhuan couldn’t understand the combat strength of this kind of woman. How could scratching and pulling hair become so vicious!
"Yes! I was scared by Si Ya today too," Xu Xiuxiu said, smiling in agreement, her eyes narrowed with amusement.
This girl was indeed fortunate; even a fight let her get acquainted with two heavyweight military wives. Aunt Lai even grabbed hold of her, clamoring about wanting to take Jingjing as her goddaughter.
Listening to Xu Xiuxiu’s account, Song Yuanhuan quietly organized his thoughts and suddenly felt he should treat his sister-in-law Jingjing better. After all, the little girl’s battle had solved quite a few potential security risks for their happy domestic life. Even though Lu Xiangxiang was unlikely to affect their marital relationship, she could disturb their peace! With Xu Xiuxiu’s temperament, she was just extremely disgusted by Lu Xiangxiang now, not yet provoked to the point of desperation. But if she really were pushed too far, she definitely could take her son and remarry.
Song Yuanhuan was terrified at the thought, but having not held his soft wife in over half a month, he confessed to himself, a starved man at this moment didn’t want to think about anything else but to eat his fill, and then flip a certain woman over to eat once more and nibble again. With his mind set, his rough palm began to cause trouble on Xu Xiuxiu’s body without any decorum.
Xu Xiuxiu, somewhat unable to resist, protested softly, "Don’t touch me, Si Ya is still sleeping in the next room! The sound insulation here is not good!" Xu Jingjing was sleeping with Song Chengguang in the next room; how embarrassing would it be for the young girl to hear anything if the couple made a fuss?
"The sound insulation is actually quite good!" Song Yuanhuan had already succeeded in nibbling on someone’s little ear, implementing his seductive policy.
"..." Is the sound insulation really good? Xu Xiuxiu wasn’t so sure.
"If the sound insulation isn’t good, you can just keep quiet," Song Yuanhuan said mischievously, seeing Xu Xiuxiu hesitating with knit brows, which made her face instantly turn deep red.
"Pervert." She punched Song Yuanhuan’s chest with her hand.
Song Yuanhuan, undeterred by this, immediately seized the opportunity to pursue his advantage, not stopping until he had successfully pinned down Xu Xiuxiu and devoured her to his satisfaction after tossing her back and forth.
After the storm passed, Xu Xiuxiu was so exhausted she could barely keep her eyes open.
Yet Song Yuanhuan, after having his fill, was still bursting with energy. With his broad chest, he hugged Xu Xiuxiu tightly and quietly placed his large hand on her stomach, "Wife, let’s have a daughter!" Just as Xu Xiuxiu was about to fall asleep, Song Yuanhuan suddenly whispered, like a muffled thunder, chased away her drowsiness in an instant.
Have a daughter? Xu Xiuxiu’s foggy thoughts were instantly alert, surprised and shocked by Song Yuanhuan’s words, but as her thoughts cleared, she couldn’t help but laugh and shake her head.
Since she had come here and had their precious son Song Chengguang, Xu Xiuxiu had never thought about having another child. Now, with the national family planning policy in action, the slogans were widespread in rural areas, and the ban on second children was strictly enforced. Given that Song Yuanhuan was in the military, after having Song Chengguang, they were legally not allowed to have a second child, so the idea was basically out of the question.
But when Song Yuanhuan brought it up, Xu Xiuxiu inexplicably felt some hope, although she truly considered Song Chengguang as her own and hadn’t thought about having another child. In her previous life, she hadn’t married and had actually hoped to experience the miracle of carrying a child for nine months, feeling the child grow slowly in her belly. Even if she might become swollen and suffer during those nine months of pregnancy, Xu Xiuxiu still harbored some expectations.
"Forget it! We’re not allowed to have a second child." Xu Xiuxiu thought and sighed softly, slightly dejected as she turned to continue nurturing her sleepiness.
"Xiuxiu, what if we have a child and register it under my brother’s name, then raise the child by our side, would that be alright?" Song Yuanhuan had seen this kind of drama in the military many times; children’s hukous registered under someone else’s name while being raised by their biological parents, an open secret no one would pointedly expose.
"I disagree." As soon as Xu Xiuxiu heard this, she went completely cold.
She was aware that under the family planning policy, many people found loopholes, resorting to all sorts of underhanded tactics.
In a previous life, she had heard from a friend from Fujian about the severe preference for boys over girls. After the family planning policy, many families eager to have sons would, upon having daughters, choose either to give them up for adoption to other families, or register the girls under another family’s household registration, while keeping them at home to raise themselves, which were somewhat conscientious options. Worse were the heartless parents who would simply kill the girl after birth or wrap her in a small quilt and abandon her on the street, not caring whether she lived or died. Hearing these stories, Xu Xiuxiu had once been deeply alarmed.
She could not comprehend the mindset of those people and would never allow her child to be registered under someone else’s household registration book; she wouldn’t let her child suffer such an absurd indignity.
"Song Yuanhuan, if the baby’s hukou is put under big brother’s name, I would rather not have the child at all." Xu Xiuxiu felt strangely firm about this, even though it was clearly exploiting a legal loophole, she just wasn’t happy. If her baby found out that they were not recognized by the law from birth, how sad that would be.
