Zhao Wan was puzzled: "What do you mean?"

Then he reacted, "Are you pregnant?"

Su Yan nodded somewhat embarrassedly. Could it be that this Guanyin who sends children had been accumulating wishes all the time and would deal with them all at once when the time comes?

Zhao Wan: "No wonder. I was wondering why I didn't receive any reply from you in the past few days. I thought something happened to you, so I came to see you."

Su Yan didn't tell her what happened during the Mid-Autumn Festival. After all, it was a family scandal and Grandmother He had already punished her.

Now the land deeds as compensation have been given to her, and He's mother has been copying the Diamond Sutra at home day and night. It would be inappropriate to tell anyone about it.

So I just casually said that I had just gotten pregnant and the fetus was unstable, so I needed to stay in bed and rest for a few days.

It's okay now.

Zhao Wan nodded and sighed, "I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence. I just found out about it two days ago, just like you. The child will have a playmate when he is born. Hey? Maybe we can arrange a marriage for him."

Su Yan led her into the house, and when she heard this, she raised her hands and refused repeatedly.

"Don't do that. Let the children decide for themselves when they grow up. If they are really meant to be together, it won't be too late to decide when they grow up. If they are just siblings, then why force them? Besides, maybe we will both have a boy or a girl."

Zhao Wan sat down on the chair and thought that what Su Yan said was quite right.

She naturally loves her child and of course she couldn't force him.

I just said it emotionally, but after listening to Su Yan's explanation, I think she makes sense.

Zhao Wan reached out and stroked her belly, which had not yet shown its pregnancy, with a motherly glow on her face. "I don't ask for anything else, I just hope that the child will be healthy and safe in the future. As long as he doesn't kill or burn people in the future, I will support him in whatever he wants to do. This is my life, I hope he can do what he wants to do and walk the path he wants to walk."

Su Yan sat opposite her, was silent for a moment, and sighed, "We are still young, why say such depressing words? Did Grandma Qi cause you trouble again? Wasn't she locked up in the yard to worship Buddha?"

Zhao Wan smiled bitterly: "What's wrong with worshipping Buddha? The old master in the mansion is always thinking about her, and my son is always thinking about her. Everyone is afraid that I will treat her badly."

"I originally thought that the old lady was bad-tempered and unreasonable, but the old man was reasonable. These days, it seems that this is not the case."

"The old lady is being domineering in the mansion. Doesn't the old master really know about it? He is just on the old lady's side in his heart and doesn't care."

Su Yan was shocked: "How could it be? Grandpa Qi looks okay?"

Zhao Wan: "I used to think so too. After all, the old man has been praising me and never hesitated to speak for me in the past few years since I got married. But now I think about it, it's just because I didn't resist the old lady. If I didn't resist, he would naturally speak a few words for me. Anyway, I have suffered a lot, and it won't hurt to say a few words."

"But after I rebelled last time, the atmosphere in the mansion immediately changed. The old man would not speak to me, and He Qiong ignored me. Now their family is eating in the courtyard where the old lady is worshiping Buddha, and in the end, I am the only outsider."

Su Yan couldn't believe it. "Why are they like this? You are their daughter-in-law, married to them in a formal ceremony. Why are you doing this? Could it be that the whole family is divided into different camps?"

Zhao Wan was disheartened and laughed, "Don't you want to take sides? Before I got married, I only heard people say that the old lady was difficult to deal with and the old man was pitiful. Now I realize that people are alike. The old man has always been the silent accomplice of the old lady. It's also my fault that I was too young and didn't see through them before."

"But think about it, the old lady is domineering at home. If the old man really wants to control her, will he be unable to control her? It's nothing more than what the old lady does is what he wants to do, so he doesn't interfere, but only talks about it, so that outsiders seem to think he is on my side."

Su Yan opened her mouth wide. This sentence contained too much information.

If all this is true, it means that Grandpa He Qi actually agrees with Grandma He Qi's suppression of Zhao Wan.

It is possible that he was afraid that Zhao Wan would not treat his step-children well, or it is possible that he was afraid that Zhao Wan would have children in the future and would want to fight for the family property.

It may even be the case that both are true, which is why he has always allowed Grandma He Qi to take the lead.

But if you were really that scared, why did you marry her in the first place?

He Qiong already has children and has provided birthright for the family, so there is no need to keep another wife at home!

Su Yan thought so and asked Zhao Wan.

Zhao Wan was surprised that Su Yan would think this way, but after thinking about it, she felt that what Su Yan said made sense.

However, "if a fifty-year-old man's wife dies, he will arrange to remarry, not to mention that He Qiong was less than thirty at the time."

Su Yan was silent, not knowing how to comfort Zhao Wan.

This kind of isolating others is not like the last time when I pretended to be sick with Grandma He Qi and got caught.

Even if this kind of thing is made public, people will just think it's a big deal and won't see anything as a big deal.

But Su Yan knew that being isolated by everyone would only cause mild depression, and in severe cases it could be fatal.

The most important thing is that Su Yan wanted to help Zhao Wan but she didn't know where to start, which made her helpless for a while.

There was silence in the room.

Zhao Wan looked back at the scenery outside the window. It was sunny and full of vitality.

Only the grass near the roots of the tree seemed unable to escape the shadow of the big tree forever.

The breeze blew and the grass swayed. At this moment, Zhao Wan felt like she was trapped under a big tree like the grass and could only go with the flow.

Just as she was in a daze, she heard a call from her ear. She turned around and saw Su Yan looking at her worriedly.

Zhao Wan smiled and said, "I'm fine. I just suddenly felt a little emotional. Men and women are really different."

"To be honest, I didn't have this feeling when I was little. My parents loved me and would help me achieve whatever I wanted, no matter how difficult it was."

"I still remember when I was little, I saw a little boy from my neighbor's family go to school, and I wanted to go too, so I secretly went to a private school without telling my parents. But the school told me that they didn't accept female students, and told me to stop making trouble and leave quickly."

Zhao Wan looked at Su Yan and continued, "I was very angry and went home to complain to my parents. In fact, I didn't really want to go to school, but I just felt that why boys can do things that I can't? In the end, do you know what my parents said?"

Su Yan: "What did you say?"

Zhao Wan fell into reminiscence, "My parents said that I was too smart and the private school teacher was afraid that he couldn't teach me well, so he didn't let me go. Then a few days later, they hired an old scholar with a large sum of money to teach me at home."

"I was so happy at that time! I felt that there was no difference between men and women, so I studied very hard. In the end, the old scholar praised me for being smart and able to draw inferences from one example. I was very excited and felt that I had finally gained the recognition of the teacher. But the teacher said one more sentence at the end, which I will never forget for the rest of my life."

Zhao Wan stared at Su Yan in a daze, her face full of smiles, but her smiles did not reach her eyes. Without waiting for Su Yan to answer, she solved the mystery on her own, "He said it was a pity, hahahaha, he said it was a pity."

Su Yan looked at Zhao Wan, who was acting crazy, and called her worriedly, "Wan Wan, are you okay?"

Zhao Wan reached out her hand and wiped the corner of her eyes, then turned around and gave Su Yan a stiff smile, "I'm fine. I was a little rude today, I'm sorry. I just came to see you, but I don't know how I ended up saying so much."

Hong Xiu was crying as she listened to this. She cried out in pain, "Miss—"
