Chapter 971: Chapter 971 no matter how close the two of them were, they still had to rely on their children to maintain their relationship

When the old general said this, the entire place burst into laughter. Huo Sikai himself almost vomited blood and died!

His ears were red from holding back for a long time. He said unwillingly, “I’ll Remember Grandpa Leng’s teachings!”

Everyone didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. This Huo Sikai was also a miserable person. If the Leng family’s eldest daughter took a fancy to him, he would definitely be beaten up in the future!

Shi Beiyu and the others paid their respects and then went to find seats together.

The dining table was quite big, with sixteen seats.

Mother Leng had finally returned. Leng Jiuchen and Leng Jiao naturally wanted to sit together with her to reminisce about the past. So, they simply sat together.

They even reserved a seat for the birthday star, old General Leng.

In fact, Mu Siyin really wanted to sit aside and hide, but mother Shi had to pull her everywhere. She had no choice but to sit with the crowd.

Mother Leng and mother Shi were very close friends. It was not easy to meet each other this time, so they naturally had a lot to talk about.

Mother Shi did not forget to introduce Mu Siyin to Mother Leng

Mother Leng stared at Mu Siyin and slightly curled her lips as she nodded. “Alright, as long as the children like it.”

Mother Shi nodded a little shamefully. “Yes, as long as their relationship is good, anything is fine.”

Leng Yunfeng, who was standing at the side, was jealous when she heard this. “No matter how good the relationship between two people is, they still need children to maintain it. Without children, as time pa.s.ses, the relationship will easily change.”

Mother Leng was well aware of Leng Yunfeng’s personality. She smiled faintly and said, “There will be children sooner or later.”

“That may not be the case,”Leng Yunfeng said with some schadenfreude.

Mother Leng did not understand what Leng Yunfeng meant, but others knew.

The news of Mu Siyin not being able to give birth had been spread for several months. Although the Shi family had avoided the rumors at the state banquet, two months had almost pa.s.sed, and Mu Siyin’s stomach still had not moved, the wives who had been slapped in the face had already started discussing in private.

They said that the Shi family had made empty promises to the public for the sake of their face, and that Mu Siyin was a barren woman, and so on and so forth!

Shi’s mother’s expression did not look too good

“What’s there to be certain about? Having a child also depends on fate. When there’s a time, there will naturally be a time.”

Mother Leng nodded in agreement. “Yes, this matter can not be rushed.”

Mu Siyin’s fingers that were holding the Teacup could not help but tighten slightly.

For a moment, the atmosphere was somewhat quiet.

Mei Qing looked at this and curled her lips. She deliberately raised her tone and said to Mei Ning who was beside her, “Xiao Ning, it’s rare for Auntie Leng to come back. You have to stay and have a good chat with her tonight.”

When Mei Ning heard this, her eyes immediately widened and she looked at Mei Qing in shock.

Mother Leng had some impression of Mei Ning, but that was when Mei Ning was young.

Now that Mei Ning was engaged to Leng Jiuchen, as her mother, she should be happy.

However, mother Leng was not happy. She looked at Mei Ning indifferently.

After hearing Mei Qing’s words, she smiled faintly, “I’m already a Buddhist. If you young people want to chat with me, there’s really nothing to talk about.”

Mei Ning nodded slightly, he smiled and said, “Auntie likes to read scriptures. When mother heard that you were coming back today, she asked me to bring a scripture book over and said that you would like it. I didn’t see you just now, so I had someone put it back in the car. I’ll give it to you later.”

Hearing this, mother Leng’s smile deepened, “Your mother is thoughtful. Please thank her on my behalf.”

Mei Ning smiled embarra.s.sedly. “Auntie, you don’t have to be so polite.”

Mei Qing could not help but frown. She pulled Mei Ning over and whispered, “Xiao Ning, why didn’t I know about this?”
