Countdown to Awakening

For so many years, she has always told her daughter this, always telling her that you will understand when you get married. What your mother taught you is right. As long as you are more diligent and do more work, you will not be despised when you get married.

Her in-laws were pretty good, at least they didn't have a son like her. With only one son, there was no need to worry about sister-in-law relationships. In the future, the money they earned would belong to them. Everything in the house would belong to them, too. There was no need to worry about anything else.

Zhong Shanshan was also very obedient to Xiao Guilan. She had never slacked off at work during her years at her parents' home. She was very diligent and could do everything, from washing clothes to cooking. She even babysat Zhong Tianlong when he was young. So, she had some experience raising children. She would be able to take care of them if she had children.

This wasn't surprising. Everyone in the village taught their daughters this way. They all hoped their daughters would find a good husband and not be looked down upon. They also hoped their daughters would give birth to sons to carry on the family line. Only then would they avoid being criticized.

Zhong Shanshan's mother felt a sense of relief at the sight of the daughter she had personally raised. She also hoped to find a daughter-in-law like this, someone who was sensible and capable of work. Her daughter should be like this, too. That way, she wouldn't be despised by the Liao family. The next important task was for Zhong Shanshan to quickly give birth to a big, fat boy for the Liao family. That would be perfect, and her position in the Liao family would be consolidated.

Qi family.

Qi Rongfeng really started to educate Qi Yuanyuan.

"You said you had nothing to do, so why did you have to say a few words? Will you be happy if you say these two words? Do you know that everyone is watching us? The villagers are talking about you like that, aren't you afraid? Everyone knows who Sister Xie is. Do you have to say it? You love to show off so much, what are you going to do in the future? You should restrain your personality!" He said while shaking his head.

Qi Yuanyuan also shook her head. She was afraid of Qi Rongfeng saying these things to her. These old-fashioned, feudal words.

Is it not okay to speak up when you do something wrong? If everyone does this, who will still follow the rules?

Qi Rongfeng also knew that Qi Yuanyuan wouldn't listen to anything he said. Besides, Qi Yuanyuan had the guts to publicly point out Sister Xie's behavior at the banquet... and judging by the way she was talking to him now, she might not hold back either...

"My daughter, don't blame me for being nosy. I just want to tell you not to do this kind of thing again. After all, so many people in the village don't like you. It will also mean that your mother and I are not good at raising children. I told you that you will leave the village after you get into college, but we are still here. We will stay in Tianfu Village all our lives. Do you want us to be talked about by others in the village for the rest of our lives?"

Qi Yuanyuan said helplessly, "I understand, Dad. I won't say it anymore. I won't care about other people's affairs anymore."

"Yuanyuan, why do I feel like you've become a different person? You used to not care about these things, but why do you like to meddle in these things now? Did your low blood sugar affect your brain?"

Qi Yuanyuan felt a little guilty after hearing this. She couldn't possibly say she had traveled through time, could she?

"Mom, I don't think so. Haven't I always been like this? Before, I was under pressure from the college entrance examination, so I didn't like to meddle in other people's affairs. But now that the exam is over, I will definitely let go of my thoughts... I will also pay attention to the affairs of the village..."

After hearing this, Liang Xiaocui didn't find it strange. Instead, she felt that what she said made sense.

Liang Xiaocui added, "In short, from now on, don't get involved in things that have nothing to do with you. If you do, everyone will point the finger at you. You'll become a sitting duck."

Qi Yuanyuan nodded. It made sense. Just ignore it. She'd have to go to college anyway.

Then, Liang Xiaocui asked again: "You saw someone get married today. Do you want to get married? If you do, I will ask someone to help you find someone right now. We can have the wedding later."

Qi Yuanyuan: "..." She was speechless. It was always the same topic. Why was it always this? Was there nothing else? Was marriage the only thing she could think about?

How could you want to get married just by watching someone else get married? What did you think of her?

She shook her head. Liang Xiaocui continued, "Look, Liao Bin was supposed to be yours, and today was supposed to be our family's wedding. But you messed it up and started meddling in other people's affairs... Look, Liao Bin is pretty good, too. Why can't he be my son-in-law? You're just not up to the task."

Qi Yuanyuan ignored her and went into the room alone.

She doesn't like men either. So why let her find a man? How is that possible?

Liang Xiaocui sighed and shook her head. Who did this girl look like? Neither she nor Rongfeng had the same personality, so how could they have given birth to a daughter like this? She didn't know who she took after.

She shook her head again

night.

Xiao Guilan, Zhong Jianhua and the other two prepared to go back after the family dinner.

Before leaving——

Xiao Guilan looked at Zhong Shanshan and said, "Shanshan, don't forget what your mother told you. Don't forget. It's very important. Do you understand?"

Zhong Shanshan: "Mom, how many times have you told me all this? My ears are so callused from hearing it all. Don't say it again, I will definitely not forget it." She smiled after saying this.

Ding Xiaoxiao also came out. "Mother-in-law, don't be so specific about these things. They're enjoying their wedding night tonight, and we're only disturbing them. A night of love is worth a thousand gold. You should go back." Then she told Zhong Shanshan to go back to her room and wait.

Having all been through this before, Xiao Guilan also said after listening, "That's right, there's still the wedding night. We won't keep you any longer, we'll be back soon."

Then Zhong Shanshan was called into the bedroom by Liao Shengnan and her two sisters.

-

Liao Bin pushed open the bedroom door and glanced at Zhong Shanshan, who was sitting beside the bed. He didn't know what to say for a moment. After scratching his head, he remained stunned.

Although he didn't say anything, his face was already red all the way to his neck...

He just thought Zhong Shanshan was very beautiful today. Really beautiful.

Hearing the noise, Zhong Shanshan raised her head and looked at him. "We are husband and wife, don't be shy, come here." She waved to Liao Bin.

Liao Bin said "Oh" and walked away.

At this time, Liao Bin's mother came in from outside. "Shanshan, eat something first." After that, Liao Shengnan appeared in front of Zhong Shanshan with a small fruit plate.

Zhong Shanshan looked at it and lowered her head shyly. There were big red dates, longans and some chestnuts in the fruit bowl.

The meaning of this fruit plate is to have a baby soon.

Later, Liao Bin's mother brought in another bowl of glutinous rice balls. "Shanshan, eat the glutinous rice balls first. Come."

Zhong Shanshan took the glutinous rice ball, scooped it up and took a bite.

"Raw...raw?" Zhong Shanshan exclaimed in surprise. Liao Bin's mother clapped her hands and cheered, "Shanshan, that's exactly what I wanted from you! Come, have a few more red dates."

Zhong Shanshan picked up the fruit from the fruit bowl and stuffed it into her mouth.

"If you eat this, you will have a baby soon. It will carry on the Liao family's bloodline." Ding Xiaoxiao said with a smile.

Zhong Shanshan smiled shyly. Then she nodded. Of course, she had to give the answer her mother-in-law liked to hear...

Liao Bin's mother was finally relieved. "Okay, you two are doing well." Just as she was about to leave, Liao Shengnan reminded her, "Mom, did you forget? That..."

Upon hearing this, she slapped her forehead and said, "Oh, look at my memory! I've forgotten all this. Zhao'er, go and get it in. How could I forget something so important?"

Liao Bin and Zhong Shanshan were confused. What?
