Courtyard House: Drunk and barging into the Xu family's house, I woke up numb.

Later, no one knows how these people negotiated, but the matter was simply dropped.

When her father-in-law came back, he told them not to mention the matter again, and that as long as the neighborhood committee didn't come to take the house, the Liu family could stay there for the time being.

After Zhou Yan finished recounting the story, Chen Liping, the older accountant standing to the side, spoke up.

"Go on, what happened next?"

Zhou Yan looked at Chen Liping, who had a curious expression on her face.

"Then I started working here."

Accountant Chen Liping rested her chin on her hand and said.

"What about the house?"

"They said they wouldn't change it, so you just didn't change it?"

Zhou Yan leaned against the counter and said.

"If they won't exchange it, I can't just run into the house and throw my things out for them, can I?"

"If this gets out, how can I ever face anyone again?"

"But I'm not in a hurry, since I've already made my point clear."

“If their family doesn’t agree to change houses, then I won’t register with Liu Guangtian.”

"Let them handle this themselves."

Seeing this, Yu Li couldn't help but ask.

"Zhou Yan, if your second uncle's family insists on not agreeing to the house exchange, are you really not planning to marry Liu Guangtian?"

Chen Liping, who was standing nearby, felt that it was inappropriate and spoke up to persuade her.

"Yes, Zhou Yan, this is a major life event for you, marriage is a lifelong commitment."

"Although Liu Guangtian is a bit cowardly, you can easily win over a man like him."

"Isn't it a bit too frivolous to not get married just because we're moving to a different house?"

At this moment, someone next to her looked at Yu Li and asked.

"Yu Li, don't you and Liu Guangtian live in the same compound?"

"Tell me, what should we do about Zhou Yan now?"

As soon as she said that, everyone's eyes fell on Yu Li.

Even Zhou Yan couldn't help but look at Yu Li, trying to get a good solution from her.

"Don't all look at me like that. As the saying goes, even an upright official finds it hard to settle family disputes. How can I possibly explain this kind of thing?"

"If I say anything wrong and ruin your relationship, you'll both complain to me to death."

Zhou Yan took the initiative to ask.

"Yu Li, tell us your opinion."

"I'm just offering this as a reference; the final decision is still mine, and I won't blame you."

Yu Li looked around and reluctantly agreed.

"Okay, this is what you asked me to say, for reference only, it doesn't count."

Seeing Zhou Yan nod, and knowing she had a way out, Yu Li finally spoke.

"I think the key issue is whether you really want a house in the north. If you do, then you have to stick to it."

"My second uncle's family is headed by a patriarch; they are the kind of people who always have the final say."

"If you want to change houses, you have to do it before you get married. You have to stick to this and not wait until after the wedding."

“If you don’t change it before you get married, once you’re married, given your second uncle’s temper and Liu Guangtian’s personality, you’ll probably never get to change the house.”

"You have no idea how much effort Yan Jie and I put in to get half of my salary back from my stingy in-laws. I regret not bringing up the point that we wouldn't hand over our salaries before we got married."

"So now you not only need to think about the housing issue, but also about your salary with Liu Guangtian."

As soon as Yu Li finished speaking, Zhou Yan fell into deep thought.

Seeing this, Chen Liping waved to the people beside her, signaling them to leave so she could think it over herself.

Before long, Liu Guangtian, who had been rushing, finally ran into the supply and marketing cooperative and went straight to Zhou Yan.

"Zhou Yan, come out here for a moment, I need to tell you something."

Zhou Yan looked up at Liu Guangtian and said.

"Just tell me what's on your mind."

After looking around, Liu Guangtian offered his advice.

"It's not convenient here, let's go outside to talk. I have a solution for the house."

Zhou Yan, who was still in a dilemma, immediately perked up upon hearing this. She left the counter and followed Liu Guangtian to the corner outside.

After looking around to make sure no one was around, Liu Guangtian leaned close to Zhou Yan's ear and explained his plan.

After hearing this, Zhou Yan looked at Liu Guangtian with a shocked expression.

"What did you say, ten?"

Zhou Yan looked at Liu Guangtian with some uncertainty.

"Liu Guangtian, do you want me to fake a pregnancy to deceive your parents?"

Zhou Yan was truly shocked by Liu Guangtian's idea, and she raised her hand to slap Liu Guangtian on the head.

"Liu Guangtian, are you trying to be mean?"

"You asked me to fake a pregnancy to fool your parents, did you even consider my feelings?"

"Are you stupid? Do you know how much of an impact it will have on me to be labeled as pregnant out of wedlock?"

Liu Guangtian was already on guard, and as soon as he saw the big hand coming, he immediately dodged to the side.

Seeing this, Zhou Yan glared at Liu Guangtian and snorted.

"Well done, Liu Guangtian, you've really grown some guts, daring to hide now, huh?"

Liu Guangtian hid to the side and raised his hands in surrender.

"Yanzi, don't be angry. Listen to me first, and you can hit me after I've finished speaking, okay?"

Zhou Yan lowered her hands and tucked them into her sleeves, leaning against the wall as she looked at Liu Guangtian.

"Go ahead and tell me, let's see if you can come up with something truly remarkable."

Liu Guangtian leaned closer and whispered.

"Yanzi, do you know what my dad is most looking forward to right now?"

Zhou Yan shook her head.

How would I know what your father is hoping for?

Liu Guangtian said.

“What my dad wants most right now is a grandson. He’s been thinking about having a grandson ever since my sister-in-law got pregnant.”

Zhou Yan understood something after hearing this.

010 "Could it be that your sister-in-law is pregnant with another girl this time?"

Liu Guangtian nodded.

“That’s right. My older brother and his family asked when they went to the hospital for a checkup. The doctor said they were having a girl.”

At that time, family planning had not yet begun, and the practice of identifying the sex of babies was not yet prohibited.

The sex of the baby can usually be determined after three months, and the doctor will not hide it from the family if asked.

Therefore, many families usually find out the baby's gender in advance; they can get a general idea at three months and are basically certain at four months.

Although hospitals have regulations prohibiting abortion and induced labor except in special circumstances, this practice can still affect the attitude of the in-laws towards their daughter-in-law.

Whether in the city or the countryside, the idea of ​​valuing sons over daughters was still very serious at that time, and many families regarded carrying on the family line as more important than life itself.

Therefore, as soon as Liu Guangtian finished speaking, Zhou Yan immediately thought of Liu Guangtian's sister-in-law.

What Liu Guangtian liked most about Zhou Yan was her quick wit, which was much better than his previous blind dates.

"Yanzi, you're so clever! You guessed it as soon as I opened my mouth. You're amazing!"

Zhou Yan ignored Liu Guangtian's words and asked directly.

"So you want me to fake a pregnancy so you can get the house by scamming me, right?"

(bieh) Liu Guangtian nodded.

"That's right, this is called 'established facts cannot be changed,' and my dad taught me this method."
