A woman in her 1970s remarried a tycoon with no heir, and gave birth to triplets, stunning the famil

Lu Qiyue raised an eyebrow: "This fruit doesn't look very big, but I didn't expect it to be quite substantial after being cut up."

Jiang Linwan's hand holding the fruit suddenly stiffened. She glanced at Lu Qiyue guiltily, and their eyes met. She felt as if Lu Qiyue had seen through her: "Yes, yes, there is quite a lot."

Lu Qiyue gave her a meaningful look and didn't ask any further questions. Back when Lu Chengyu and Sun Shuyao were caught cheating by the crowd, he was curious about how she managed to stick their hands together so subtly.

They even found the book later in his older brother's room.

Later on, it seemed like the food and other supplies at home would inexplicably increase, but the supplies on the island were always the same. He had even wondered if his memory was confused.

Now he's certain that his wife is hiding something from him, or rather, that it's a skill she possesses.

"What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?" Jiang Linwan asked, feigning composure after being looked at by him.

Lu Qiyue: "I think my own wife isn't up to par."

Tian Jingshu burst out laughing.

Jiang Linwan took a piece of apple and stuffed it into his mouth: "Speak less."

As she spoke, she picked up an apple and fed it to Xiuwan and Jingshu.

It was Tian Jingshu's first time trying it, and the sweet fruit flavor filled her mouth. She exclaimed with delight, "Delicious, so sweet!"

Seeing her like this, Jiang Xiuwan couldn't help but feel sorry for her: "If you like it, then eat more."

She often ate these things when she was at home.

"It is indeed very sweet." Tian Jingshu also ate a piece and said with satisfaction.

The meat delivered in the morning was plentiful, so Aunt Liu made a large pot of braised pork for lunch, along with a pot of bone broth, stir-fried cabbage, hot and sour shredded potatoes, and pork and vermicelli—a total of five dishes.

Another pot of steamed buns was made as the main dish.

In contrast to the lavish meals Jiang Linwan enjoyed, Liu Guiying's table only had one dish: stewed cabbage with pork and vermicelli, with more vegetables than meat.

As soon as the dishes were served, the Sun brothers picked up their chopsticks and started picking out the meat, occasionally rummaging through the other dishes.

Sun Miaomiao looked at it with disgust and instantly lost her appetite.

Battalion Commander Sun looked at the two men with disdain for their eating habits, slammed his hand on the table, and said sternly, "Take what you're eating, and stop picking at it here."

Upon hearing this, Sun Yaozong opened his mouth to curse, but Grandma Sun quickly covered his mouth, saying, "My little darling, shut up right now."

"If your second uncle kicks us out, we won't get anything to eat."

Sun Yaozong glared angrily at Battalion Commander Sun, muttering, "He dares!"

Battalion Commander Sun looked at him with a gloomy face.

Grandma Sun was furious at her grandson's disobedience and pinched his bottom hard, saying, "You better behave, or I'll take you back home."

She lowered her voice and said, "There won't be any meat to eat when you go back. You should listen to your second uncle and have him enroll you in school after the New Year."

"From now on, we'll stay here and eat meat every day."

Sun Yaozong cried out in pain, suppressing his anger upon hearing his grandmother's words, but his eyes remained fixed on Liu Guiying's swollen belly.

It's all because of this barren old hen that insists on having children. If she didn't have children, Second Uncle would definitely listen to him and wouldn't dare to disobey Grandma.

The thought of his second aunt's unborn child, which, if it were a boy, would prevent him from inheriting his second uncle's wealth, filled Sun Yaozong with rage.

He didn't want to go home and not have meat to eat, nor did he want to be beaten by his father. He wanted to stay at his second uncle's house, wear new clothes, eat meat every day, and have endless money.

Battalion Commander Sun, with his keen ears, frowned upon hearing his mother's words: "Mom, there are conditions for military personnel to study with their families in our military region. Only biological children are eligible for a spot."

Yaozong isn't my child; I don't have the ability to enroll her in school.

Upon hearing this, Old Mrs. Sun grinned from ear to ear: "That's perfect! Let Yaozong be adopted by you, then he'll be your child."

Battalion Commander Sun said helplessly, "Mom, I have my own child. Why did you have to give Yaozong to me as an adopted son?"

Even if you agree, do you think my older brother would agree?

Grandma Sun: "Why doesn't your older brother want to? He has two boys in his family, unlike you who don't even have a son."

Yaozong is too young to remember anything. If he's adopted by you, he'll definitely love you when he grows up.

Liu Guiying slammed her chopsticks on the table with a loud bang: "Mom, we have our own children, we won't take someone else's children."

"How can this be someone else's child? This is your older brother's child, and you are related by blood." Old Mrs. Sun immediately became unhappy.

"Mom, I will not agree to Yaozong being adopted into my family. You stay here until the end of the month, and I will ask for leave to send you back then," Battalion Commander Sun said decisively.

Grandma Sun immediately became displeased: "Second son, I'm doing this all for your own good. I'm worried about you not having a son."

Battalion Commander Sun: "The baby in my wife's belly is a son, so you can rest assured."

Grandma Sun's face stiffened, while Sun Yaozong, standing to the side, wore an expression of obvious jealousy.

No wonder his second uncle suddenly stopped caring for him; it turns out he's about to have his own son.

He looked at Liu Guiying's stomach with a sinister gaze.

"Mom, I'm full. I'm going to Aunt Jiang's house to do my homework with Chunya and Xiuwan." After saying that, Sun Miaomiao put down her chopsticks, quickly grabbed her schoolbag, and ran to the Jiang family's house.

Seeing Sun Miaomiao run to the Jiang family's house, Sun Yaozu dropped his chopsticks and quickly chased after her.

Sun Miaomiao looked aggrieved as soon as she saw Jiang Linwan: "Aunt Jiang."

"What's wrong? Who bullied you?" Jiang Linwan asked with a smile.

Just as Sun Miaomiao was about to express her grievances, Sun Yaozu swallowed hard and rushed towards the dining table, reaching out to grab the meat in the bone broth: "It smells so good, I want to eat too."

Lu Qiyue swiftly gripped his wrist, her face cold as she looked at him: "Get out!"

Sun Yaozu originally wanted to throw a tantrum like his grandmother, but when he met the man's cold and stern eyes, he felt inexplicably afraid and took several steps back, yelling at the top of his lungs, "Grandma, save me! This bad uncle is going to hit me!"

Grandma Sun ran over with heartache, but when she met Lu Qiyue's fierce gaze, she shrank back in fear.

"Commander Lu, I'll take them back right away." Battalion Commander Sun rushed over, grabbed Sun Yaozu by the collar, lifted him up, and quickly left with him.

Sun Yaozu looked displeased: "Miao Miao is here too."

"I like Miaomiao, so of course she can come. Have you left home yet? If not, hurry up and eat something." Jiang Linwan said, pulling Sun Miaomiao to sit down.

Sun Yaozu stared in fury.

Sun Miaomiao deliberately winked at him, looking smug.

He was so angry that his face turned red and he shouted, "Grandma, I want to eat meat too! You good-for-nothing, put the meat down! If you dare to eat it all and not bring it back for me, I'll have Grandma beat you to death!"

Battalion Commander Sun's face gradually darkened. He raised his head slightly, and their eyes met: "Who are you calling a money-loser!"
