However, since getting married, Yang Kai has been supporting his family less and less. He used to send 20 yuan a month, but now he only sends 10 yuan a month.

Yang Kai’s parents and brothers had quarreled before, but every time Yang Kai only said one sentence.

"My parents are not mine alone, and the burden of supporting them in their old age should not be borne by me alone. I have helped the family enough over the years, and from now on I will just be responsible for the monthly income for my parents. As for my two younger brothers, they are not too old, and it is time for them to work hard, so they should go out and fight on their own. You can't pin all your hopes on me, right?"

The parents wanted to make a fuss at first. After all, they had been accustomed to Yang Kai raising their whole family over the years. However, the amount of money they received as filial piety had dropped drastically. How could they accept this?

But Yang Kai stood firm. No matter how they made a fuss, he only had that one thing to say.

When he joined the army, Yang Kai's household registration was removed from his family. In other words, he now has an independent household registration book. From the perspective of a rural person, he has now separated from his family.

Even if there is no separation, he is right no matter where he stands.

There are three brothers in the family. It doesn't make sense for him to bear the burden of supporting his parents in their old age alone, and it's even more unreasonable for him to bear the burden of raising his two younger brothers' families, right?

Although ten yuan is not a lot, for rural people, having a stable income of ten yuan every month is enough to beat 90% of the families.

Yang Kai's mother made a fuss, but after that, Yang Kai didn't send any money the next month.

Gradually, everyone in the Yang family knew that Yang Kai particularly liked Li Lingling and was willing to break up with his family in order to marry her.

The Yang family members are not without resentment, but what can they do?

Can they really refuse to accept the money Yang Kai gives them every month?

That's obviously unrealistic.

In the countryside, ten yuan is enough for a family to live happily for a month.

Therefore, before Li Lingling became pregnant, although Yang Kai's parents did not say that they liked her very much, they also maintained a calm appearance.

After learning that Li Lingling was pregnant, Yang Kai's mother suddenly turned into an evil mother-in-law and forced Li Lingling, who was only two months pregnant, to give birth to a grandson for their family.

So, from yesterday to today, Li Lingling has been in a bad mood, for she was afraid that she would give birth to a daughter and be disliked by the Yang family.

She knew too well how difficult life was for an unfavored daughter at home, and naturally did not want her daughter to have the same experience.

Even though she still doesn't know whether the baby in her belly is a son or a daughter, she has already started to worry about it.

Xu Wanning looked at Li Lingling and comforted her softly, "The most taboo thing for pregnant women is to be in a bad mood, which will directly affect the baby in the belly. Therefore, if you want your child to grow up healthy and strong, you must maintain a good attitude."

"In addition, whether you give birth to a son or a daughter is not a matter for Yang Kai's parents. As long as Yang Kai treats you and the child wholeheartedly, what difference does it make? As for the Yang family's opinion, it cannot be said to be completely unimportant, but you should not take it too seriously. Just leave everything to Yang Kai."

After being enlightened by Xu Wanning, Li Lingling's mood wasn't exactly brighter, but it was almost there.

She nodded vigorously, "Yes, I understand. If I give birth to a daughter and the Yang family embarrasses me because of this, I will let Yang Kai protect us. If he can't figure it out and despises it because it's a daughter, then I will divorce him! Anyway, I earn so much salary every month, there is no need to look at anyone's face."

Xu Wanning put her hand on Li Lingling's shoulder: "That's right. If you have this kind of awareness, your life will definitely not be difficult. Don't be afraid. In addition to Yang Kai, you also have me and your comrades to back you up. If anyone wants to make you unhappy, just tell us openly and we will support you."

Listening to Xu Wanning's words, Li Lingling couldn't help but redden her eyes.

She sniffed and said in a muffled voice, "Wan Ning, thank you."

If she hadn't met Xu Wanning, Li Lingling felt that she would never have the good life she has now.

Not only was she able to sever ties with her original family that had caused her decades of pain, she was also able to find her own happiness. All of this was given to her by Xu Wanning.

Xu Wanning patted his shoulder and said, "Don't let your imagination run wild. The most important thing for you now is to take good care of yourself and the baby in your belly."

"The first three months were quite unstable. Anyway, it's vacation now, and there's nothing to do at the snack shop. You can decide whether to stay at the snack shop or go to Qizhou to find Yang Kai. Try to take good care of yourself."

"Yes, I will!"

After chatting with Li Lingling, Xu Wanning looked at the other eight people.

"You guys are probably all still single, right? Do you have someone you like, or someone you're already in a stable relationship with?"

Yang Rong and the other eight looked at each other and laughed: "We don't have the time to find a partner."

"That's right, men only affect the speed at which I make money!"

"There aren't many good men, and the good men our age have basically been picked up. Now the ones left are all ugly. I'd rather be single than settle for anything."

"Marriage is just like that. I've seen too many cases where life becomes difficult after marriage. I'd rather stay single and go to my husband's house to take care of the whole family."

"Anyway, we earn a lot of money every month, so we save it all. When we have enough, we can buy a small house to live in. It's much more comfortable than getting married and serving someone else's family!"

After listening to what these people said, Xu Wanning really didn't know what to say.

If you say that they are wrong, Xu Wanning really can't say anything against her will, because she thinks what they said is so right.

But if you say they are right...

In the 1980s, women already had this awareness and always felt that something was strange.

But there is a saying that is true, even though you are living a good life alone, after getting married you end up wearing yourself out. Instead of this, it is better to be single, with money and free time, how wonderful it is.

After all, today's new-age women are quite different from those in later generations. Once they get married, they are expected to serve their parents-in-law by default. If there are many brothers in the family and the family has not been divided, their wages have to be handed over.

Not only do you not have money to spend, you also have to serve others. It's not something most people are willing to do!

Everyone has their own destiny. Xu Wanning does not have a God's perspective and does not know what kind of life the eight of them will live in the future. All she can do is not interfere and let them develop freely.
