Chapter 750: I Agree
I highly recommend "1990, I'm Back"! Watch the exciting parts directly.
After Huang Erhe came out of the study on the first floor, he looked preoccupied. He did this all the way to his own home. Cheng Jing naturally noticed this. On the way home, she couldn't help but want to ask Huang Erhe what was wrong several times, but considering that the two children were also in the car, she refrained from asking.
After arriving home, Cheng Jing settled Maowa and Miguo in before going to the study on the third floor to find Huang Erhe.
She walked over to Huang Erhe, gently placed her hand on his shoulder, and asked with concern, "What's wrong? Did something happen?"
Huang Erhe patted Cheng Jing's hand on his shoulder reassuringly, "I'm fine!"
Then he took Cheng Jing's hand and said, "Don't stand, sit down. I need to discuss something with you!"
Upon hearing this, Cheng Jing realized that there was still something going on. However, she still sat down, wanting to hear what Huang Erhe had to say to her.
On the way back, Huang Erhe was thinking about how to tell Cheng Jing about this. When the couple were alone in a room, Huang Erhe decided to be honest and tell Cheng Jing about it.
"My mom just called me over to discuss having another child with me!"
Cheng Jing was stunned. Why would she suddenly think about having a child? This is too...
Seeing that Cheng Jing was a little caught off guard, Huang Erhe placed his hands on Cheng Jing's knees and said to her in a very calm manner, "I know you can't figure it out right away. Actually, I felt the same way you do now, but can you let me finish what I have to say first?"
After calming herself down, Cheng Jing nodded.
Huang Erhe observed Cheng Jing for a moment, and seeing that she did not show much resistance, he continued, "It's like this, my parents are quite traditional and believe in the idea that many children bring many blessings. The reason they think this way is..."
Huang Erhe told Cheng Jing the whole story of why his parents had such thoughts.
Huang Erhe concluded by saying to Cheng Jing, "That's roughly the situation. And your parents have assured us that we don't need to worry about policy or financial difficulties, as they have solutions for that. Even so, I will still respect your opinion. If you don't want to have children, then we can continue living our lives, and I'll handle things with my parents."
After hearing this, Cheng Jing was in a state of confusion, and she didn't know what to do.
Having a baby? It's not impossible, but I'm worried about mistreating Migo, and I'm also afraid that Maowa won't be able to accept it right away. After all, children who have experienced their parents' divorce are quite sensitive.
If she doesn't have children, her in-laws will definitely be unhappy. To be honest, Cheng Jing is quite understanding of her in-laws' thoughts, but this matter cannot be handled so hastily. She needs to consider it more carefully, or perhaps go back to her parents' home to discuss it with her parents, brothers, and sisters.
As for Old Huang and Zeng Lijuan, the elderly couple, believing that everything should be done sooner rather than later, they had already brought gifts to visit Cheng's family.
"Oh! In-laws?" Cheng's mother was surprised when she opened the door and saw Lao Huang and Zeng Lijuan standing at the door.
She immediately greeted them warmly, "Oh! My dear in-laws, you've arrived!"
He didn't forget to call out into the house, "Lao Cheng, your in-laws are here! Come out and greet them! Don't dawdle!"
Zeng Lijuan warmly took Cheng's mother's arm, saying, "Mother-in-law, why are you being so polite! We just happened to be passing by and thought we'd drop by. It's just a small token of our appreciation, please don't mind!"
"Oh my! What's going on! What's going on! I'm so happy that you guys came to visit!" Cheng's mother said politely to her two in-laws.
As they were talking, the two went inside, and Old Huang followed behind carrying the gifts.
At this moment, Cheng's father also came up with a smile: "Oh, my dear in-laws, you're here! Please have a seat!"
He then instructed Cheng's mother to boil water and make tea. After putting down the gifts, Lao Huang waved his hand and said, "Lao Cheng, we're all family, don't be so polite!"
But Cheng's father insisted, "You should at least have a cup of tea!" He then took out a cigarette and handed one to Lao Huang.
Old Huang glanced at Zeng Lijuan first, then took the cigarette from Cheng's father and lit it with the lighter Cheng's father offered. Zeng Lijuan didn't say anything, but instead went to help Cheng's mother boil water.
As soon as she entered the kitchen, Zeng Lijuan began to flatter Cheng's mother: "My dear in-law, to be honest, I'm extremely fond of Cheng Jing. Ultimately, it's because your family has such good traditions, and you and your father-in-law have done a great job educating your children that you've raised them all to be so well-behaved. I'm truly envious!"
Cheng's mother quickly replied modestly, "Oh dear, please don't say that. If you do, I'll lose all face (sorry). Look at your three sons, each one is an outstanding individual. Aren't they all the result of your and your father-in-law's upbringing?"
Just as the two were talking in the kitchen, Cheng Yiwu, the youngest son of the Cheng family, and his wife Xing Jia returned from her parents' home.
As Cheng Yiwu helped Xing Jia, who was about to give birth, into the house, they saw Lao Huang. The couple quickly went up to greet him.
"Hello, Uncle Huang!"
"Uncle Huang!"
"Good, good, good! You're back!" When Old Huang saw Xing Jia with her big pregnant belly, he quickly put out the cigarette in his hand.
The young couple saw Zeng Lijuan in the kitchen again and quickly went to greet her.
Zeng Lijuan responded with a smile, her eyes constantly fixed on Xing Jia's belly. She watched the young couple return to their room, then said to Cheng's mother with an envious look, "Mother-in-law, congratulations! You're about to have another grandson!"
Cheng's mother replied with a beaming smile, "Congratulations to you too! But we don't know yet if it's a grandson or a granddaughter. However, Lao Cheng and I don't discriminate against boys; boys and girls are the same!"
Zeng Lijuan nodded in agreement, saying, "Yes! Whether it's a boy or a girl, we'll be happy."
Then Zeng Lijuan changed the subject: "Mother-in-law, to be honest, I've come here this time because I really have something to discuss with you!"
Upon hearing this, Cheng's mother's heart skipped a beat. She instinctively thought of her daughter, Cheng Jing, and worried that there might be something she hadn't done well.
Just then, the water boiled, and Cheng's mother, trying to remain calm, said, "Mother-in-law, let's go outside and sit down to talk this over!"
Zeng Lijuan replied with a smile, "Okay!"
And so, the two returned to the living room together.
After Cheng's mother finished brewing the tea, Zeng Lijuan spoke again: "To be honest, father-in-law and mother-in-law, Lao Huang and I came here this time because there's something we'd like to discuss with you both!"
Upon hearing this, Cheng's father paused for a moment, glancing subtly at Cheng's mother. Cheng's mother immediately smiled and replied, "What is it? Mother-in-law, please speak freely. We're all family!"
Seeing that Cheng's mother had said this, Zeng Lijuan then shared her thoughts: "It's like this, my Erhe and Cheng Jing have been married for a while now, and their relationship is very good. I was thinking, wouldn't it be even better if they could have a child of their own?"
When these words were spoken, both Cheng's parents were stunned.
Cheng's parents exchanged a glance, and before Cheng's mother could speak, Zeng Lijuan said again, "My dear in-laws, I know what you're worried about! Old Huang and I are here to make our stance clear to you."
All issues regarding childbirth will be handled by our family. You don't need to worry about policy matters. I've already discussed it with Erhe's father. As long as Chengjing agrees to have the baby, I'll transfer one million yuan to Chengjing's account tomorrow. Regardless of whether it's a boy or a girl, we'll give another two million yuan after the baby is born. All future expenses for the child will be covered by me and his father.
Cheng's parents didn't respond to Zeng Lijuan immediately. They still had some reservations, mainly because of their granddaughter, Miguo, who had come with them when their daughter, Cheng Jing, married into the Huang family. They were worried...
Unexpectedly, Zeng Lijuan seemed to be able to see through their thoughts and continued, "I know you are still worried about Miguo. Please rest assured, now that she has come to our Huang family, she is our Huang family's granddaughter, just like my other grandchildren. In the future, her grandfather and I will prepare a separate dowry for Miguo. We will definitely not mistreat this child."
Good heavens, they've considered all of this! What else is there to say? The Huang family has considered every aspect. Besides, this is also beneficial to their daughter. If they don't agree, wouldn't they be out of their minds?
Cheng's father slapped his thigh and exclaimed, "I agree!"
