Sure, here’s the translated text:
Upon hearing this, Qi Yuancheng dared not delay any longer and imdiately went in to intervene.
Of course, the one he defended the most was his wife Qin Rou. Although the other was his mother, Qi Yuancheng still knew who was truly good to him.
In the room, Qin Rou was crying as she spoke to Qi Yuancheng: "Before the treatnt, I didn’t agree to your brother’s child being adopted by us. Now since you can be treated, we have hope of having our own child."
"Qi Yuancheng, I cannot stay under the sa roof with her. You must make her leave, otherwise, we’ll get a divorce!" Qin Rou knew that in reality, her mother-in-law brought her youngest son’s child over, and it wasn’t Qi Yuancheng’s fault. But at this mont, Qin Rou was venting her anger at Qi Yuancheng—the person to bla was his mother.
"A Rou, don’t talk about divorce. I won’t divorce you." Qi Yuancheng held Qin Rou’s shoulders with both hands and gently wiped away the tears on her face. "In fact, what you want is exactly what I want. I also don’t want to adopt my brother’s child. I will go and explain everything to my mother right now."
With this said, Qi Yuancheng turned and left the bedroom, stepping outside.
Seeing Shuanzi still eating from a fruit can, as if the chaos around had nothing to do with him, Qi Yuancheng’s gaze turned cold. His youngest brother’s sons had all been spoiled by their and the parents’ upbringing, even showing cold-hearted traits. Just monts ago, when Qi Yuancheng stepped in, his mother and A Rou were entangled in a fight, yet the protected Shuanzi continued eating.
Qi Yuancheng felt powerless to change his youngest brother’s son, but just as Qin Rou had said, such a child was absolutely not the one they wanted.
After a brief glance, Qi Yuancheng entered his mother’s room.
Upon entering, he faced his mother’s accusations against Qin Rou. Bai Lan Hua cried pitifully, her words full of attempts to sow discord between Qi Yuancheng and Qin Rou.
Qi Yuancheng listened to her complaints without saying a word.
Only after she finished did he express his stand in a deep voice, "Mother, take Shuanzi back. A Rou and I won’t adopt him."
"Eldest child, what do you an by that? Do you believe your mother did this for whom? It was for you. You’ve been married to that woman for years without a child. She’s just a chicken that won’t lay eggs, and..."
"It’s who cannot conceive!" Qi Yuancheng’s words imdiately silenced Bai Lan Hua.
Bai Lan Hua stared blankly at her eldest son.
"Are you joking? Are you saying this to defend that woman?"
"Mother, it’s indeed my issue, and it was diagnosed by the doctor. Lately, I’ve been undergoing treatnt. The doctor assured that once the treatnt is successful, A Rou and I can have our own children, so there’s absolutely no need to adopt the third-brother’s son. So, don’t worry, just take Shuanzi back ho." Qi Yuancheng plainly stated it was his issue, without feeling a sense of sha about it. At least, he wouldn’t let Qin Rou be misunderstood again.
Originally, yesterday and today, around this ti, he should have been heading for treatnt.
But due to his mother’s visit, especially like today, he was entirely stuck and unable to go for treatnt.
Bai Lan Hua, stunned by this revelation, wanted to refute the possibility but looking at her eldest son’s earnest deanor, knowing him well enough, she realized he wasn’t lying. It was true.
So, is the problem not with that woman Qin Rou, but rather with her eldest son?
Is the eldest son still undergoing treatnt? Can it be cured?!
If the treatnt succeeds and the eldest son and Qin Rou have children, then adopting the third son’s child wouldn’t be necessary?
But, then what will beco of the third son’s family?
Yes, Bai Lan Hua’s initial reaction wasn’t jubilation for her eldest son’s potential to have his own children but worry for the third son’s family.
It’s said that fingers of a hand are of different lengths, as parents, one may also show favoritism among multiple children.
Bai Lan Hua’s naturally favored the youngest she raised herself— the sweet-tongued third son.
As for the eldest and second son, they were raised by their grandmother, especially the eldest, who had joined the army since the age of ten plus, hence they spent very little ti together, yet he was the most accomplished.
Bai Lan Hua knew well what the third son’s family was like, lacking working capabilities, having a slothful nature.
Fortunately, the third couple bore three sons, whereas the eldest couple couldn’t conceive.
Thus, she always harbored thoughts of having the eldest "support" the third’s family.
In her view, childless as the eldest son was, eventually all his belongings should belong to the third son.
But now, suddenly things have taken a turn, and the eldest is close to having his own children. So, what about her third son’s family?
Even after Qi Yuancheng left, Bai Lan Hua was still in a daze, only realizing long after.
No, she couldn’t let the eldest have a child!
If the eldest has children, the third son’s family, without the eldest brother’s support, would have tough tis ahead. Just thinking about it broke Bai Lan Hua’s heart.
Therefore, the eldest must not have children!
But how could she prevent the eldest from having children?
"No treatnt ans no children—Yes, the doctor!"
Quickly, Bai Lan Hua ford a plan, intending to find out who’s treating the eldest’s condition, and then she’d decide what actions to take.
-
Gu Jia Ning wasn’t aware that trouble was brewing.
Seeing Qi Yuancheng absent for another treatnt session, Gu Jia Ning rely furrowed her brows, deciding not to mind it further.
Even though she was intent on treating him, helping him and Qin Rou have children, if they opted not to treat, there was nothing she could do.
This matter didn’t affect Gu Jia Ning’s mood.
At noon, returning ho from work, Gu Jia Ning saw Sheng Zexi had co back first and personally prepared a al.
Gu Jia Ning was pleasantly surprised, "You ca back so early today?"
"Mm, there’s good news today."
Gu Jia Ning went forward to embrace him, blinking her eyes: "What’s the good news?"
"I’ve been promoted to Deputy Regint Commander, so now you’re the Deputy Regint Commander’s wife."
Gu Jia Ning’s eyes shone brightly, "Really? That’s wonderful! I just knew you could do it."
Seeing Gu Jia Ning happy made Sheng Zexi delighted as well.
In truth, if it weren’t for his father weighing him down, he’d definitely be way beyond deputy commander by now. After completing the last mission, his father finally couldn’t keep holding him back, allowing him the chance for promotion.
As he recalled, in the previous compound, the only person comparable to him had been Li Family’s Li Tingxuan.
He rembered that Li Tingxuan is now at a regint-level officer.
However...
Previously, when his mother was alive, he and Li Tingxuan were seen as exemplary children, but once his mother was gone, he beca his father’s "rebellious child," serving as Li Tingxuan’s foil.
Thinking of Li Tingxuan, Sheng Zexi rembered sothing. He heard from Beijing-based comrades that Li Tingxuan plans to apply for a transfer to the Northwest Military Region.
Why?
Sheng Zexi found it odd.
After all, having a position in either Northwest Military Region or the Beijing Military District, anyone with common sense would know which offers better prospects.
Why would Li Tingxuan be eager to transfer to the Northwest Military Region?
