Rebirth of a Village Girl novel Chapter 999

Chapter 999: 238: Total Outbreak!_4

Zuo Ling made up the story about the past pregnancy; his goal was simply to make Shangguan Xi believe him.

After all, the Zuo Family had only moved to Beijing twenty years ago, and many old neighbors weren’t clear about their old affairs, so even if Shangguan Xi had the intention to inquire, she wouldn’t find out anything.

Shangguan Xi nodded, "Oh, I see."

Zuo Ling continued, "My mother still remembers my unborn sister to this day. Every year on Tomb Sweeping Day and the Cold Clothes Festival, she burns paper money for her. Xiaoxi, you must remember never to bring this up in front of my mother; I don’t want to resurrect her grief."

He knew Shangguan Xi too well; she was simple and kind-hearted. Considering his mother, she would not ask his mother to verify this.

"Mmm, I understand. Don’t worry, I won’t say anything."

"That’s good then."

As the conversation ended, Shangguan Xi added, "By the way, Zuo Ling, there’s another thing I want to make clear to you."

"Go ahead," Zuo Ling said with a smile, "I’m all ears."

Shangguan Xi said, "Nowadays, birth planning is so strict. If we were to get married in the future, regardless of whether our first child is a boy or a girl, I will not have a second child, and even your parents cannot interfere with our decision. If you agree, then we can continue our relationship; if you don’t, then let’s just end things here!"

Some things needed to be made clear in advance.

Having been advised by her family, Shangguan Xi didn’t want to end up in an ugly dispute over such matters!

This... this was absolutely unacceptable!

Even though birth planning was strict, if one spouse could resign from work, not both being in employment would allow a second child.

Besides, wasn’t it a woman’s duty to carry on the family line?

Would a woman who couldn’t bear children be brought home just to be revered like an ancestor?

But of course, Zuo Ling would never speak these thoughts aloud. He was, for now, quite content to revere Shangguan Xi like an honored ancestor.

Shangguan Xi was beautiful and well-educated, and they shared deep feelings. Zuo Ling did not want to part ways over the issue of children.

That would definitely happen! _{fгeewebnovёl.com}
