Chapter 70: Chapter 69
Sure enough, this meal wasn’t for free.
Zhang Xiaoshan had long been prepared in his heart.
"Auntie, you’ve come to borrow money, haven’t you? I know it’s not easy for you to take care of Little Ya by yourself. Here’s what, I’ll go get you some money, and you can use it first,"
Zhang Xiaoshan wanted to stand up and get Su Xiangmei some money, but Su Xiangmei pressed down on Zhang Xiaoshan’s arm, smiling and said.
"Little Shan, you’re really good to your auntie. But today, I’m not here for money; it’s for another matter."
"What else could it be?"
Zhang Xiaoshan was utterly confused. What other troubles could Su Xiangmei have besides money?
"You tell me, if I can help, I’ll definitely help."
"Good, these are your own words," Su Xiangmei’s face brightened into a smile.
That smile made Zhang Xiaoshan feel uneasy; why did he feel like Su Xiangmei had dug a hole for him?
"Auntie, just speak directly. When you look at me like that, I really do get a bit scared."
"Hehehe, don’t be scared, don’t be scared. Actually, for a strapping young lad like you, it’s no big deal at all."
"As long as you’re willing to help your auntie, it will take just a few minutes."
Zhang Xiaoshan was getting more and more bewildered.
"Umm... well... since you’re practically family, you know how things are at your auntie’s house. The man died early, leaving just me and Little Ya, mother and daughter, relying on each other. Little Ya is also growing up day by day, and in a few years, she will have to get married. At that time, I’ll be left alone with no one to rely on, so your auntie wants to make some plans."
"Plans?"
Zhang Xiaoshan listened with a baffled face, staring at Su Xiangmei in disbelief.
"Auntie, you’re not thinking about remarrying, are you? You’re still young and attractive. It’s not unreasonable to find a companion. But, but you should find someone your own age. I, how can I help with that?"
After Zhang Xiaoshan spoke, Su Xiangmei’s cheeks instantly turned crimson.
"You, you naughty boy, why do you speak so harshly? I’ve been a widow for so many years, never remarried, and it’s been hard enough to wait until Little Ya grew up. How could I possibly ruin my reputation now? Besides, you’re a talented and educated man. I have some sense in my head; how could I possibly expect you to marry me?"
"Then, what do you want me to help with?"
Su Xiangmei’s cheeks were so red they looked like they could bleed, and after hesitating for a long time, she spoke with difficulty.
"Well, the planning I’m talking about is not to remarry but to have a son and leave a descendant. As long as I have a son, I will have hope for the future."
"Have a son?"
Zhang Xiaoshan was startled by Su Xiangmei’s idea, staring at her in astonishment.
Su Xiangmei, having already spoken her mind, had no more reservations.
"Right, I came to you because I want your help having a son."
"Little Shan, you’re young and strong. Help me out, let me have a son?"
Su Xiangmei looked at Zhang Xiaoshan with emotional anticipation in her eyes.
Su Xiangmei’s idea was too crazy, too outrageous, and Zhang Xiaoshan was so shocked that the chopsticks fell from his hand.
"No way, Auntie, you’re not joking with me, are you?"
"I mean, you want me to get you pregnant?"
"Not to mention whether I’m willing or not, let’s talk about Uncle Li; he’s been dead for several years now. What will people think if you get pregnant now? Aren’t you afraid of the villagers pointing at your spine? And besides, having a son isn’t something I can decide. What if you do get pregnant and end up with another daughter?"
At this moment, Zhang Xiaoshan was truly at a loss for words.
Xiang Mei and Li Ya are indeed mother and daughter; their ideas are crazier than the other’s.
Sure enough, after hearing Zhang Xiaoshan’s words, Su Xiangmei’s face showed a moment of dejection, but her emotions quickly became intense again, as she said very determinedly,
"I, I already have a plan. Anyway, Little Ya is about to go to college. I’ll go work in a big city and accompany her to school; then quietly have the baby. No one in the village will know, unnoticed by gods and ghosts. Also, if it indeed turns out to be a daughter, I’m resigned to it. But I really don’t want to give up without trying."
"Little Shan, please, it doesn’t matter whether it’s a son or a daughter; I don’t want you to take responsibility. I will raise the child myself. I won’t be a burden to you, and no one will know this secret."
Saying this, Su Xiangmei gripped Zhang Xiaoshan’s arm with excitement.
Crazy, Su Xiangmei had lost her mind.
