Please make money.

"Congratulations, Afang - this little guy is so fat, is he so well-nourished?"

The woman who liked to wear red dresses put a bouquet of flowers in a vase and congratulated the woman lying on the hospital bed.

But the woman lying on the hospital bed just looked at the child in her arms with complicated eyes, even a little strange.

Just like that... I got married... started a family... and then had children... and then what?

She looked at the woman in the red dress blankly: "Second sister-in-law, what were you thinking about when you gave birth?"

"What are you thinking about?" The woman in the red dress recalled: "Probably something like it hurts."

"I mean—do you regret it?"

"Regret? Not really." The woman in the red dress sat on the bed and said, "You mean you're also a child, you haven't even learned how to be a mother yet, do you regret this?"

"I...I don't know."

"It's normal, endocrine disorder." The woman in the red dress smiled and said, "Of course, the more important thing is that your marriage is not happy."

"..."

"I know you're not after money, you're here to repay a favor. Even if you look at your personal conditions alone, Ai Ruhu is considered out of your league. You're a top student, and you have a lot to do in the world... That's what I think, and you think so too, right?"

"...I am very grateful to Mr. Ai."

"You either call him by his name, or you divorce him and leave the child to him. Choose one."

The red-dressed woman's voice was no longer smiling, but her expression became more serious. "I'm not trying to persuade you. I just want to tell you that this child is enough for you to repay your gratitude. If there is no love, your second half of life will be very difficult. It will hurt you, the child, and even Ai Ruhu."

“I don’t know.” The woman lowered her head, tears falling silently, but her expression did not show any sadness, and she even looked a little confused: “I… I don’t understand.”

"No one knows what the future holds, but you need to face it, because from today on, you are responsible for this little guy."

The woman in the red dress took the swaddling clothes from her arms and teased the wrinkled little one: "If you choose to leave, then you have to leave early. If you choose to be a mother, you will have to pay more and it will be very tiring and hard."

"Mr. Ai has never been bad to me."

"I know." The woman in the red dress said without raising her head: "I will tell him about his side, including my mother-in-law's side."

She naturally has the confidence to play a role that is almost like a judge. From now on, this "unfortunate" marriage has entered a new stage of countdown.

The woman was silent. She missed her youth, her scholarly spirit, the high-flying birds and the sycamore trees on campus, and she also missed her home.

But since when did my home no longer belong to my parents, but to another man and a child?

She looked down at her hands and could vaguely see the scratches from the bracelet.

When she had edema before, she couldn’t take off the bracelet that Ai Ruhu gave her. Ai Ruhu was so angry that he smashed the bracelet and said he would buy her a new one later.

Her wrist was scratched by the fragments, and when the doctor and nurse arrived, they scolded him. As a result, he almost argued with the doctor because he wanted to save face.

The man was rude, violent, self-righteous, and overconfident...but he had never done anything bad to her.

"Sister Lu--" She raised her head and looked at the woman in the red dress.

The latter sighed slightly: "I thought you would call me second sister-in-law."

"Do you want me to say that?"

"I don't know either. If you call me Second Sister-in-law, then I would like you to call me Sister Lu."

She put the child aside. The little guy would judge her mother's influence, so she had to put him aside for the time being.

"You can leave, or you can work with me. I'm going to send a group of people to study further, either in China or abroad. You can choose a place."

"What does it feel like to be a mother?"

"What do you feel?" The woman in the red dress looked at the child beside her: "Probably the first feeling is, I gave birth to such an ugly thing?"

"..."

"do not you?"

"Kind of."

"So when do you decide to leave?"

"I--"

“Crunch—”

There was a slight sound of the door opening, and both of them stopped and looked towards the door.

The woman lying on the bed subconsciously held her breath, while the woman in the red dress frowned: "Abei——"

"Ma'am, I'm here." A man poked his head in: "What do you want?"

"……who?"

"Um - Second Young Master." The man leaned over and picked up a little guy: "Here."

"Why is he here?"

"He came here with the old lady. The old lady was downstairs, and he ran up by himself."

“Ah—ah!” The little bean sprout-like creature twisted in the man’s hand and stretched out its hand towards the woman: “Ah! Ah!”

"He hasn't learned to speak yet." The woman in the red skirt stepped forward to take the child, who was only a few years old: "Don't cry, don't cry, be good..."

"Ah——" The child still eagerly reached out towards the woman on the hospital bed, with most of his body climbing forward.

"He seems to like you very much." The woman in the red dress took off his shoes, put them on the bed and stood beside him: "Does he think of you as his mother?"

"His original mother..." The woman on the bed hesitated: "Why did Mr. Ai divorce her?"

"They just have different tempers. One wants to save face, and the other wants it even more. They fight over the slightest problem in life. What else can they do but divorce? They even used a kitchen knife. The child was probably injured because of poor sleep and rest during pregnancy and domestic violence. He is born with a defect."

"...I actually rarely see him." The woman on the bed looked at the child who kept reaching out to him eagerly. Her heart softened and she raised her hands to hug him. Her movements were a little clumsy. "Mr. Ai left him with his mother-in-law. He doesn't seem to like this child very much."

"Love the house and hate the dog; hate the house and hate the dog."

"I have no prejudice against children. Why don't adults consider such young children when they are impulsive?"

The woman on the bed said this, and then burst into tears again: "Am I hypocritical? I say such things, but when it comes to me, I..."

The woman in the red dress sighed slightly. She and Rulong came back a step too late, and this silly child jumped in by himself. What else could she do?

Just as he was thinking about it, a woman with high cheekbones and sharp eyes pushed the door open and said, "Where's my son! My son—you stole my son!!"

"..." The woman in the red dress glanced at the bodyguard pretending to be stupid at the door, then looked at the mean woman who broke in, her voice turned cold: "Get out!"

"You-you...you are here too...Second sister-in-law...no, that, Xiao Lu..."

The moment she saw the woman in the red dress, the mean girl softened, and even showed visible fear.

"You don't have custody of the child. I warn you again, you can only visit one day a month, and it's not today."

The mean woman glared at the woman on the hospital bed with resentful eyes, then timidly looked at the woman in the red skirt, and finally shrank her neck and retreated from the room. In fact, she didn't even look at the child at all during the whole process.

She even had time to carefully examine the baby in the cradle with a cold look...

"Well, ma'am, it's mainly faster this way." The bodyguard smiled awkwardly, "You are more professional in this area."

"Get out and guard the door! No one is allowed to come in——"

"Okay..."

The bodyguard rolled out smoothly, closed the door, and stood guard at the door with his back turned.

The mean woman hunched over and looked at him with her neck stiffened, but she didn't dare to say anything for fear of angering the woman in the red dress inside.

The bodyguard snorted coldly, reached into the inner pocket of his suit, and took out a spray bottle.

The mean girl was startled and stepped back several meters in panic. Then she watched in shock as the bodyguard took off his sunglasses, sprayed liquid on both sides to clean them, carefully took out a glasses cloth to wipe them, and then put them back on. The lenses reflected cold light.

“……” The mean girl cautiously moved closer again, trying to eavesdrop on what was being said inside.

The bodyguard reached into his pocket again, but this time the mean girl was not afraid. She glanced at the silver-plated gun tip with disdain and didn't take it seriously.

The next second, the other party took out a small object and sprayed it on her face. She felt dizzy and her vision went dark, and she immediately fell to the ground.

The bodyguard picked her up with one hand, not letting her make any sound, and took her away from the scene as if she were a garbage bag...

Inside the room, the woman who had not yet made a choice was staring at the two children in front of her in a daze.

"He seems to like his younger brother very much." The woman in the red dress looked at the two little ones and said, "That's good. I will arrange for them to eat and live together and cultivate their relationship. Children always need a companion to grow up. It's great for Xiaoya to have these two younger brothers to protect her."

"younger brother!"

"Hmm?" The woman in the red dress and the dazed woman looked at the child at the same time. He actually spoke?!

"Brother—" The child clapped his hands, then carefully touched the baby's face with a toothless smile on his face.

Then he reached out to the dazed woman, eager to hug her: "Ah - ah -"

"So the first word he learned was 'little brother'. That's really rare. I thought his first word would be 'mom'... That's right, he doesn't have a mom now."

"Ah - numb, numb..." The child stood up, then staggered and fell into the arms of the dazed woman: "Number..."

The woman in the red dress stopped talking. She looked at the child, then at the woman who was crying for the third time, and crossed her arms across her chest, as if she understood something.

"The older one has a devoted personality, and the younger one also has the potential to lack a sense of security and fear being abandoned... Whose child is this..."

This child is quite a weirdo as he doesn't take after his biological mother but follows his adopted mother.

"Second sister-in-law..."

"Ok?"

"He called me mom, what does that mean?"

"You have to ask yourself that." The woman in the red dress crossed her arms, "You can get comfort from satisfying other people's needs, but if you care too much about other people's feelings, you will be very sad, and it will become more and more sad in the future. Now he wants you to be his mother, can you be his mother for a few years, ten years, or even a lifetime?"

"……I have no idea."

"so what?"

“So—” The woman took a deep breath, clumsily held the child’s hands and raised them in front of her: “Tell me, Mom—Mom—”

"Ma-Ma-"

The woman in the red dress leaned against the window, looking at the woman sitting on the bed. The sunlight shining on her was like a layer of gold like the Virgin Mary.

"A child, a fool...ah..."

……

……

"Afang...Afang?"

"Ah-ah?!" Aunt came back to her senses: "What?"

"Are you okay?" Ai Ruhu looked at her suspiciously: "Eat, it's cold."

"Oh, okay... just remembered something."

"What's the point of thinking so much?" Ai Ruhu looked at the message on his phone without raising his head. "If you are unhappy, go shopping, go to those ladies for beauty SPA, enjoy yourself. I ordered a few bags for you and will have them delivered to your home. I don't know which one you like. You can give the ones you don't want as gifts to those sisters."

My aunt smiled, not showing much joy, just as if she was used to it: "Okay, but don't be so wasteful, I won't need much."

"Hey, people see you carrying last season's model every day, and they think I, Ai Ruhu, can't afford it anymore - buy it! Buy new products, or if you like other brands, it's all fine."

"Um... Ruhu, I want to tell you something."

"what's up?"

"Xiao An said he wanted to have a pet, and I thought—"

“Ah!! Ahh ...

Accompanied by a crazy roar, a disheveled guy almost crawled down from the second floor.

He was still holding half an envelope in his hand. It seemed like there was something written on it. He was holding it so tightly that his knuckles turned white.

"…What's the matter with all the noise? What driver?"

When Ai Ruhu heard this word, his face darkened: "The driver has been changed, don't ask about this matter - and I warn you, don't provoke Lei Fan!"

"Lei Fan...Lei Fan?" Young Master Jing seemed a little confused, as if he had not yet come to his senses.

"Hmph, the previous driver was that Xiao Chen. Although he was a little bit taciturn, he was quite capable. In the end, Lei Fan asked him to be Alia's driver. You... forget it, don't worry about it. But how did you know about it so quickly?"

Ai Ruhu looked at his son suspiciously: "Who told you that? Your third uncle? Or is someone gossiping?"

"Raifan...driver...Alia...Alia!"

The second young master Jing rushed out of the door, screaming with a hint of roar, and in the roar there was a bit of trembling. Only the cry of "Alia——" lingered in the room for three days.
