He waved his hand as if he didn't care, "It was all thanks to my friend's introduction."

He's mother immediately responded, "That also requires knowing someone."

"And we have to know the goods and be quick with our hands. Otherwise, how can we get such a good thing?"

He Peng nodded modestly.

He Sansao stood beside her with her two children throughout the whole process, with a deep smile on her face.

A closer look reveals a sense of indescribable pride.

Uncle He and Uncle He looked at each other and turned away.

Uncle He considered his words carefully before slowly saying, "...this batch of Shu brocade...isn't it expensive?"

Grandfather He and Grandmother He were sitting at the head of the group, silent and silent.

But his eyes followed Uncle He's words and fell on He's father and mother.

He's mother's face was stiff. She looked at He's father without saying anything.

He's father didn't care. "This opportunity is rare. Why would we have time to worry about money?"

Grandfather He's face darkened. "How much is it?"

He Peng saw that his father looked unhappy, so he quickly stepped forward and answered, "Grandpa, it cost eight thousand taels!"

"However, once this batch of Shu brocade is resold, the price will double immediately!"

“You can earn it back right away!”

Grandfather He covered his chest and said, "Eight thousand taels? Have you already given it?"

He Peng nodded.

Grandfather He said angrily, "How could you give out so much money without telling the family?"

"Eight thousand taels! Did you sell the land?"

"No, selling the land is not enough, is it possible..."

Grandmother He couldn't sit still any longer, "You guys are selling the shop!!!"

Su Yan sat aside and touched her belly in shock.

Father He felt a little embarrassed facing his shocked and angry parents.

But then he thought about the money he earned from selling a piece of cloth in the past two days, and he felt justified again.

In this world, opportunities are always fleeting.

If you don't act decisively and seize the opportunity, the money-making business will be taken over by others.

He would never admit that he waited until the dust settled before telling his family about it.

He doesn't want his family to get involved and dilute his family's interests.

Grandfather He knew what he was thinking at a glance, and he was angry and disappointed.

In the end, I had to admit that my second son was such a selfish villain.

but···

"Take me there! Now!"

No matter how angry he was, he didn't want to see his second son's family being cheated and losing everything.

Seeing his father's unquestionable look, He's father thought that now that the Shu brocade had been bought, it would be inappropriate for others to interfere by offering financial support.

Just nodded in agreement.

At the same time, He's mother wanted to show off and called on everyone to go together.

Therefore, the crowd went there in a mighty way, and then came back in a mighty way.

However, unlike the worries when they left, Grandpa and Grandma He were obviously relieved when they returned.

But He's father and mother, as well as He Peng's family, are obviously more arrogant.

With a blatant boast on his face, he said, "I've already said that this is a relationship that Apeng worked so hard to find. How could his father and I not check on such a big thing?"

After He's mother finished speaking, she added bluntly, "Dad and mom are just worrying about nothing."

Grandfather He and Grandmother He had gloomy faces, but this time they didn't say anything.

The Shu brocade is genuine. When I went there, there were well-informed wealthy people in the county who were knocking on their son's door begging to buy it.

They were a little wrong this time.

Although the second brother is narrow-minded, he has been running his own business over the years and has some vision and means.

Grandfather He wanted to nag his son a few more times, asking him to be more careful in the future.

For them, there is really no need to gamble their entire fortune.

But before he could say anything, He's father announced happily, "After we sell this batch of goods, we plan to buy a house and settle down in the capital."

He's mother: "Yes, the house here has been sold anyway, it's just right!"

Everyone was shocked!

Aunt He couldn't help but exclaim, "So sudden! How..."

From the corner of his eye he glanced at Grandfather and Grandmother He whose faces were ashen, and he couldn't say the following words.

Forget it, it’s none of her business.

Grandpa and Grandma He could have spoken up to intervene, but the old couple didn't want to do anything this time.

Besides, people won’t listen.

Why bother.

Because of this incident, the atmosphere was very depressing when everyone had dinner together in the evening.

Su Yan ate the food that He An picked for her silently.

The dinner was over and everyone left.

Su Yan and He An also walked back slowly.

The two men sent the maid away and quietly evaluated what had happened that day.

As she was talking, Su Yan suddenly felt uncomfortable in her stomach.

Then something came out from between the legs.

She held He An in a daze for a moment before she realized, "I...I'm about to give birth!"

He An, who was looking back to wonder why she didn't leave, was shocked and said, "What!"

Subconsciously, she looked down at her feet and saw that there was indeed a trace of water.

"My water broke." Su Yan took a deep breath and said calmly.

He An said "Oh" twice in a daze.

Then he suddenly reacted and shouted to the servants who were a few steps behind:

"Go and ask for a midwife!!!"

Then he instructed the rest of the people, "Go boil some water, take out all the things you have prepared at home, and send them to our house."

"You, go to the kitchen now and prepare a bowl of chicken noodle soup, hurry up!"

···

Su Yan watched him arrange the maids and servants in an orderly manner, and her originally nervous mood gradually calmed down.

I still feel like teasing him, "You are so organized, have you thought about it in your mind a long time ago?"

He An turned around and looked at her deeply, "It has happened countless times, since you got pregnant!"

Su Yan looked at his face, speechless for a moment.

It was not until He An helped him back to the yard that he regretted not responding.

But now I want to say it, but I can’t.

The contractions came so fast and so hard that I had no energy to think about anything else.

The midwife had already arranged everything, but looking at Su Yan who was in pain in the yard with sweat pouring down his head like rain, she still insisted on walking.

He stamped his feet anxiously, "Oh, my young master and his wife! Come into the house quickly!"

"You guys keep going around in circles, are you going to have kids?"

He An grabbed Su Yan's arm with one hand and put the other hand around her armpit.

He tried his best to support Su Yan's weight and continued to move forward with her.

When the midwife asked, she took time out of her busy schedule to answer, "Why not? This is what we specifically asked the doctor about. It will be easier to give birth this way."

He An dragged Su Yan around twice more, and He's grandparents, who had received the news, came.

Seeing Su Yan like this, Grandmother He quickly stepped forward to support him, "How are you? Are you feeling okay?"

Su Yan leaned her head weakly in He An's arms, almost relying on his entire body weight.

The strands of hair on her forehead were sticking to her face, and her teeth were chattering.

“...it hurts...it hurts so much!”

Grandmother He cried out of distress, "My dear child, my dear child! You have suffered."

She carefully wiped the sweat from Su Yan's forehead and had to pretend to be calm.

Holding Su Yan's other arm, he and He An almost carried her and walked, "Take a few more steps. The imperial physician said that if you walk more, you will suffer less during the birth."
