Chapter 603: Chapter 595: The Divine Medicine Exists Chapter 603: Chapter 595: The Divine Medicine Exists Especially when hearing that someone had a child, someone else had a grandchild, a belly grew larger here, another belly grew there.
Each time she heard such news, she could get so frustrated that she felt like she would die of anger.
“Big sister, it looks like your daughter-in-law’s belly has grown a little bigger, hasn’t it?” Old Madam Song sulkily commented.
The sourness in her comments was so strong that it was nearly tangible even from a distance.
“It’s a boy.”
The middle-aged woman held her chin high in pride, while the pregnant woman proudly puffed out her stomach as if afraid others might not see.
When Old Madam Song heard it was a boy, it felt like a cat was scratching at her heart.
She felt so uncomfortable and miserable that she wished for a wall to scratch at in frustration.
...
It’s a boy, it’s a boy, it actually is a boy.
Why is it not her grandson?
“Don’t envy me,” the middle-aged woman said, pulling Old Madam Song aside and whispering in her ear.
But their voices were not low.
If they really had something secret to say, they would have gone somewhere private, instead of right here, in front of two women.
“Still no news from this one’s belly?”
The middle-aged woman glanced at Tang Yumin’s flat stomach.
It was clear without even looking, thin as a ghost, would be strange if something was there.
What was there?
Old Madam Song spit on the ground, hell no!
“Maybe she can’t bear children?”
The middle-aged woman once again looked Tang Yuxin over, “She’s too skinny.
People say women with big breasts and big hips can bear children, look at yours, seems like she can’t give birth.
If she can’t, why did you buy her?”
“Who knows?”
When Old Madam Song spoke about this matter, she got angry, “When we first bought her, they didn’t say she was mute.
She came home not able to utter a word and is as stupid as she looks.
I’ve never seen a woman brimful of stupidity like her.”
“So I see.”
The middle-aged woman seems to despise Tang Yuxin, perhaps she also resents all the women bought into the village.
These bought women are just trouble.
If they aren’t running away today, they are escaping tomorrow.
Every day, the whole village is helping to catch them.
It choked her, filled her with bitterness, almost making her choke.
The pregnant daughter-in-law seemed to have an idea, her eyes twinkling as she gave Tang Yuxin a scornful sidelong glance.
“Auntie, my mother-in-law has a secret recipe for bearing sons.
Would you like to try it?”
“A son, a son?”
When Old Madam Song heard this, she got so excited her brain seemed to spin.
A potion that could ensure the birth of a son?
If such a thing exists, she would pay any money to get it.
“This...” The middle-aged woman hesitated for a long time.
“Big sister, you must help me with this matter.”
Old Madam Song quickly grabbed the middle-aged woman’s hand, “You know our family’s situation.
Dalin is the only seedling in our family and he’s almost thirty.
However, he doesn’t have a child yet.
Although we old two are still around, he will starve if we leave.
Without a son to protect him, he won’t survive.”
Whenever Old Madam Song thought of the child she was waiting for and the son who is yet to be conceived, her heart aches and she weeps at the sorrow in her words.
“Ah...
”
“Sister-in-law, don’t cry.”
The middle-aged woman quickly comforted Old Madam Song.
“I have a medicine,” the middle-aged woman’s eyes shifted, her voice was low, and she put on a troubled expression.
Any discerning person could tell she was pretending, but one did not need to guess what she was pretending about, it would be obvious soon.
“Medicine, what medicine?”
When Old Madam Song heard the word ‘medicine’, her nerve endings tensed up.
Her small, pea-like eyes were shrouded in a layer of grim determination.
“What else could it be?” the middle-aged woman slapped her thigh, “that medicine!
The one that helps conceive sons.
The birth of my fat grandson is also credited to it.
Do you want to try this medicine for Dalin too?
It’s been kept in my family for generations.”
“Sister-in-law, please get me some of that medicine,” Old Madam Song said, mentally resolved to get her hands on the medicine for the sake of her grandson.
