You\u2019re afraid to have a second child, worried it might be a son, and so am I.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The two women then turned their gazes to Serenity, both with envious expressions.<\/p>\n<p>Serenity: \u201c\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Yes, she had both a son and a daughter.<\/p>\n<p>A harmonious family, a loving husband, and two children\u2014her life was perfect.<\/p>\n<p>People outside said she was Heaven\u2019s favorite daughter, that God had been too good to her.<\/p>\n<p>Thinking about it now, Serenity felt she truly had a good life.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSister-in-law, Second Sister-in-law, Dr. Cheng.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>While the three were discussing their future in-law relationship, Zhan Yue brought Zeng Xiao Ya over.<\/p>\n<p>Serenity was a little surprised to see the two of them. Had they returned so quickly?<\/p>\n<p>Looking at the time, she realized they had been chatting for quite some time.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSister Tong, Sister Chu,\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Zeng Xiao Ya greeted them.<\/p>\n<p>After greeting them, she looked at Dr. Cheng. Dr. Cheng\u2019s youth surprised her. She knew Dr. Cheng was the only apprentice of the legendary doctor, skilled in both medicine and poison, but she hadn\u2019t expected him to be so young.<\/p>\n<p>She looked a few years younger than her, not at all like a mother of a seven-year-old.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Cheng also looked at Zeng Xiaoya, discreetly sizing her up, guessing that Zeng Xiaoya was Zhan Yue\u2019s girlfriend.<\/p>\n<p>The eighth young master of the Zhan family had finally found love.<\/p>\n<p>Over the past few years, she had watched the Zhan family\u2019s sons end their single lives one by one; time really flies. Now even the eighth son of the Zhan family had a girlfriend. Oh, and the once sweet-talking ninth son was already in his mid-twenties.<\/p>\n<p>She had entered middle age, and these boys younger than her had naturally grown up too.<\/p>\n<p>Serenity smiled and introduced Zeng Xiaoya to Cheng Lingling: \u201cLingling, this is Xiaoya, the eighth son\u2019s friend.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHer surname is Zeng.\u201dSuppressing her excitement, Zeng Xiaoya smiled and extended her right hand to shake hands with Cheng Lingling. \u201cDr. Cheng, hello.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Cheng Lingling shook her hand, smiled back, and then asked, \u201cMiss Zeng, you\u2019re a doctor, right?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Zeng Xiaoya smiled, \u201cHow did Dr. Cheng know?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou have a medicinal smell on you. You\u2019re either a doctor or a nurse, but I think you must be a doctor.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The person Zhan Ba \u200b\u200bShao likes must be very outstanding, so she concluded that Zeng Xiaoya was a doctor.<\/p>\n<p>Zeng Xiaoya raised her arm and sniffed. \u201cI didn\u2019t even know I smelled like medicine. Dr. Cheng has a really good sense of smell. I am indeed a doctor, working at the Dongguan Central Hospital.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Cheng Lingling shook her hand again, and Zeng Xiaoya was flattered.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re colleagues now,\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Cheng Lingling said with a smile.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYes, we are colleagues. Dr. Cheng is my senior.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Serenity and her sister-in-law both invited Zeng Xiaoya to sit down. Serenity then instructed Zhan Yue, \u201cOld Ba, we don\u2019t want to go back inside yet. Go get us some fruit, brew some tea, and also get some snacks the children like.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOkay.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Zhan Yue immediately turned and walked towards the main house.<\/p>\n<p>Cheng Lingling laughed, \u201cLet\u2019s just have some fruit. We\u2019ll have dinner later. I\u2019ve been looking forward to your delicious food for a long time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you like it, come anytime, or stay here a little longer.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe can only relax for two days this weekend. I have to go back on Sunday afternoon. I need to get my crybaby back to his studies so he won\u2019t be listless on Monday.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ning Yunchu suggested, \u201cYou can let Jun Qin take his son back to school, and you can stay here and play for a few days.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI can\u2019t now. He cries so much. I don\u2019t want to go back, and Jun Fei doesn\u2019t want to go back either. He can roll around on the ground. He\u2019s such a big kid. If he keeps rolling around on the ground, I\u2019ll lose face.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Cheng Lingling laughed, \u201cI\u2019ll wait until the New Year holiday to come and visit and stay a few more days. When I come during the holiday, your sixth son will be back too. I really miss his cooking.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"fpm_end\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ning Yun Chu laughed, \u201cIf I had a daughter, I\u2019d want to become in-laws with you, but I don\u2019t have [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[20],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-18846","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-married-at-first-sight"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18846","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=18846"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18846\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":18909,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18846\/revisions\/18909"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=18846"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=18846"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=18846"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
