Chapter 4497: The Exaggerated Old Man
rom the heavens, and its trunk blazed with fireballs as large as those found in Xīxiāo Basin.Later, half of the old maple tree's trunk was charred, and then the lightning subsided.The scent of osmanth...Liu curled her lips: "I don't believe it. Liao Meiying went out just as I did, and I spent so long chatting with your mother before she left. She was at yours for exactly that amount of time. I don't believe you two only discussed having children. There must be other things."
Yang Ruqing smiled, not taking the bait. She sat beside Sun Shi, grabbing some melon seeds to shell and listening to their chatter.
Seeing that she couldn't get any information from Yang Ruqing, Liu began to talk about the affairs of the Yang family's eldest house.
Yang Ruqing called this move "Temptation."
Liu shi smacked her lips and said, "The villagers all say that the tomb relocation of Qing'er's uncle brought good fortune. Just after it was moved, Liao shi became pregnant. But in my opinion, it's not that simple at all!"
"The reason Liao was able to conceive was because she took medicine to regulate her body. She hadn't been able to get pregnant for so long before, it was because something was wrong with her health."
Bao Suyun was surprised and said, "Fourth Sister-in-law, this is unfounded. You can't talk nonsense! Master Qinger values most the protection brought by his great uncle's grave."
Sun Shi also said, "Yes, fourth sister-in-law, this is something we can say between the two of us sisters-in-law, but we can't say it outside. Qinger's husband went to great lengths to do so much, it was all to protect her, so we can't say it wasn't effective!"
As for Yang Ruohua, she remained impassive, munching on melon seeds as if nothing had happened, leaving Liu unaware of any change in her.
Liu's eyes blinked twice, a sneer curling at the corners of her mouth.
"We've been sisters-in-law for so many years, when have I ever said anything that wasn't true" Liu said.
“The Lios always go back to their mother's home in January. They stay there for half a month at a time. My mother’s sister-in-law’s cousin lives in Liaojiacun Village, and they say that the Lios burn the midnight oil every day, and the path behind the village is littered with medicinal dregs from their concoctions.”
“I wouldn't say it was for Liao Meiyin to drink, the Liangs said it was for her mother who wasn’t feeling well. But I guess, in all likelihood, it was for Liao Meiyin. Her mother is just a smokescreen.”
Liu continued to speculate, weaving a tale as if she had witnessed it herself.
Sun and Bao Suoyun were also taken aback. Yang Ruoqing was secretly surprised too. This fourth aunt was born at the wrong time. If she were born in modern times, she would be a great detective. She could uncover anything.
What Liu said about Liao Meiying was indeed accurate. She had indeed gone back to her parents' home to drink medicine and recuperate. Liao Meiying personally told Yang Ruqing this herself.
After Liu finished speaking, she picked up the teacup beside her and took large gulps, her mouth dry.
Yang Ruqing smiled and said, "Auntie Four, no matter if your guess is right or wrong, the current result is that my elder sister-in-law is pregnant. So how the child came to be doesn't matter; what matters is the child."

Liu said, "Qing'er, you haven't given birth to many children, so you don't understand. This child, if he is truly blessed, his eight characters will definitely be strong."
"If this child was conceived after taking medicine and needles, going through a lot of trouble to get pregnant, then the foundation of this child would not be stable. It's only when the child is truly born that it counts." Liu said.
"Auntie Four, you mustn't say that. If my aunt heard it, she wouldn't be happy." Yang Ruqing said with a smile.
Yang Huamei initially became pregnant after she lost weight because she was overweight and her endocrine system was severely out of balance. It took a long time to regulate her body before she could conceive.

Hearing Yang Ruqing's words, Sun Shi also quickly said: "That's right, Meier also took some time to adjust before she became pregnant. She had two sons at once, look how good the two big boys are doing now!"
Liu curled her lips, "The bad karma of the Wang family for generations has all fallen on her alone. As for others, it's not necessarily so."
"Besides, and I'm not saying this to be mean, but those two boys from the Mei family, they're tough as nails, but their brains aren't so sharp, if you ask me."
"That kid Dabi, he's small but cunning. He's got a scheming mind and is stingy and petty. His words are always sly and roundabout. Xiao Hei is just simple and naive. Last year during the New Year when he came back, his fourth uncle casually gave him a math problem to solve. He rolled his eyes for ages and tried with all his might but couldn't figure it out. Pfft..."
Liu shook her head repeatedly, her face full of disdain.
On this topic, Sun and Bao Suyun were not good at following up.
Yang Ruqing had never experienced it, so naturally she wouldn't rashly comment. Besides, even if she had, she shouldn't always talk about other people's children.
Everyone is not perfect, before speaking ill of others, first look at yourself.
"Auntie Four, let's change the subject. It's no use always talking about this. After all, they are just children. They don't understand things when they are young. Maybe they will understand when they grow up. Auntie will definitely teach them! We adults, especially relatives, should have a tolerant heart." Yang Ruqing spoke.
Mrs. Liu smiled shyly, turned her head away and continued drinking tea, as if she hadn't heard the dowry mentioned.
Yang Ruqing was too lazy to delve into it further with her. She continued munching on melon seeds, listening to Mrs. Sun chat with Bao Suyun.
Before they had even chatted for a while, Liu suddenly elbowed Sun and said, "Third sister-in-law, look quickly, just now Qing'er walked past your courtyard!"
"Ah" Mrs. Sun was startled, then immediately stood up to go and greet him.
Just as Yang Ruqing was about to reach out and press Sun Shi back down, Liu Shi moved faster and pressed Liu Shi back down first.
"Third Sister-in-law, don't go. Just let him wander around. I want to see if that old man will come in himself, hahaha…"
Mrs. Sun was pulled by Mrs. Liu and had to sit down, stretching her neck to look at the entrance of the courtyard.
Bào Sùyún said, “Could it be that we’re going to my house”
Liu asked, “Since the fifth son went to Qianyuan County, has your father visited your home”
Bao Suyun thought for a moment, then shook her head: “I’ve never been there.”
Liu said: “Isn’t that settled then Rest assured, it's definitely not going to your house.”
Then, Liu looked again at Yang Ruqing beside Sun, "It's definitely not going to the Luo family. It must be to show the third brother and sister-in-law, I guess I'm right."
Sun smiled awkwardly, "Who knows, maybe he went to the fields in front. You never know, right For a while, no matter what we did at home, when we asked him over, he wouldn't come. How could he suddenly come visit us now"
Liu excitedly said, “Hey, Third Sister-in-law, you don't understand! This old man and woman, especially the old man, are very dramatic!”
“The more you pay attention to him, the more he'll act entitled. If you ignore him, who knows what he'll do... Oh, he's back! Come here, come here, take a look!”
Everyone stole glances at the door, and sure enough, Lao Yang was walking past the road in front of Yang Huazhong's house with his hands behind his back. He kept his hands behind his back, looked straight ahead, stood tall and straight, and his profile bore the dignity of a head of household.

"He's gone past, yet he still hasn't come in!" Mrs. Sun exclaimed in surprise.
Yang Ruqing smiled, "That's because no one went to the door to invite them. If they had invited them, who knows if they would have come in."
"Mother, do you want to invite them" Yang Ruqing asked again.
Sun shi thought for a moment, then hesitated and shook her head.
Mrs. Liu chimed in, "Third Sister-in-law, you've eaten too much closed-door food and are afraid to invite people over, hahaha..."
The Nine Heavenly Emperorsers up, and they all sat around the table, drinking tea and eating snacks, chatting casually.The children then went out to the courtyard and started setting off fireworks.In a while, footsteps and lau...
