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

Jiang Linwan asked, somewhat puzzled, "What's wrong? Is this young man not up to par?"

Lu Qiyue: "I know this person without even asking around. He is clever and good at dealing with people, but his family relationships are complicated."

His family is a blended family; he was brought in by his mother after her death. He also has a younger sister, and his stepfather has two sons and a daughter.

His stepfather and stepmother had two sons and a daughter together.

Jiang Linwan couldn't help but gasp in amazement; she was quite prolific.

With eight children in the family, it would be fine if they got married and didn't live together. But if they did, not to mention whether there would be enough space, there would be plenty of petty squabbles.

She would never marry into a family like that.

Lu Qiyue smiled as he looked at her and said, "What's wrong? Do you think his family has too many children?"

Jiang Linwan nodded.

Lu Qiyue rubbed her head: "That's quite a lot. Most families have at most five children, but they have eight. There will be a lot of friction in the future."

Jiang Linwan: "Then could you help me look around and see if there are any other suitable candidates for Ximei? You've met her before; she's beautiful and well-educated, but she hasn't met the right person yet."

"Okay, I'll keep an eye on it in the meantime."

The next day, Aunt Liu woke her up at 9:30 sharp, and she finished washing up and getting ready around 10:00.

"Aunt Liu, will Sister Guiying come this morning?"

Aunt Liu shook her head: "I've never been here."

She had arranged with Sister Guiying yesterday to meet at her house at 10 o'clock to go to Sister Anrou's house together, but it's almost 10:30 now and she still hasn't arrived.

Could something have happened at home? Without hesitation, Jiang Linwan quickly left home and went to Liu Guiying's house.

When she arrived, Liu Guiying was being cornered by Old Lady Sun and Sun Yaozong and a few others.

Upon seeing Jiang Linwan, she looked anxious: "Linwan, you go to An Rou's house first, I'll talk to you later."

Before Jiang Linwan could ask what happened, Grandma Sun, seeing that she was alone, asked, "Linwan, are you going to An Rou's house by yourself?"

"Mom, aren't you ashamed?" Liu Guiying exclaimed anxiously, having noticed her mother-in-law's ulterior motives.

Grandma Sun immediately got angry: "How am I shameful? In our village, everyone can afford to go out for a meal with just a few cents as a gift."

Besides, so what if many people only give a few dollars as a gift? If you won't let me go, I can just go with Dr. Jiang.

After saying that, Grandma Sun looked at Jiang Linwan ingratiatingly and said, "Dr. Jiang, please let me go with you. I've never been to a military wedding banquet before."

Liu Guiying: "Lin Wan, don't worry about her. If you want to go, go by yourself. Don't drag Lin Wan into it."

In the end, Grandma Sun was left behind, and Liu Guiying and Jiang Linwan took Miaomiao to Commander Yang's house.

As Jiang Linwan entered the courtyard and walked with Liu Guiying toward the room where Gu Anrou was recuperating after childbirth, Lu Qiyue followed her in. He gently placed his fingertips on Jiang Linwan's shoulder, and this unexpected touch startled her.

Almost reflexively, a flash of cold light appeared between his fingers as he turned to stab the person who had just entered.

In an instant, a warm and strong hand suddenly gripped her wrist. Lu Qiyue chuckled softly, her breath slightly hoarse: "Are you trying to murder your husband?"

Jiang Linwan was surprised to hear the voice: "It's you."

"Nothing's happening in the troupe today, so I came back early." As soon as Lu Qiyue finished speaking, Lu Wanyun's dissatisfied voice came from behind her: "Jiang Linwan, you studied medicine to heal the sick and save lives."

"I'm not trying to scare my man with silver needles."

Upon hearing the voice, Lu Qiyue turned around and said sternly, "Aunt, it's none of your business what happens between my husband and me."

Lu Wanyun: "You call me 'Auntie,' so I should protect you. She throws tantrums and pricks you with needles outside; who knows how she'll bully you at home?"

Her loud shouting silenced everyone in the courtyard, and they all turned to look at Lu Qiyue and Jiang Linwan.

Sun Shuyao, who came to the full moon banquet with Researcher Su, ran over quickly as soon as she saw Lu Wanyun: "Grandma, calm down, Auntie definitely didn't mean it."

"It must be that your brother-in-law made your sister-in-law angry. But sister-in-law, you need to change your temper. Brother-in-law, you two are husband and wife, not outsiders. You can't be so guarded."

Sun Shuyao claimed to be mediating the fight, but in reality, she was just stirring up trouble.

Lu Wanyun grew angrier the more she listened: "Jiang Linwan, now that you're married to Qiyue, you should be of one mind as husband and wife. Don't think that just because things have changed a bit in your family, you can start acting like a capitalist's daughter..."

"That's right, Jiang Linwan is not fit to be a doctor at all. She's heartless. My grandson bumped his head the other day, and she didn't even pay for it..." Seeing that these two people didn't get along with Jiang Linwan, Grandma Sun immediately found an accomplice and excitedly ran over to start berating them.

Lu Qiyue's face grew increasingly gloomy as he listened: "Enough. You know perfectly well why my wife won't take your grandson to the doctor. There's no need to twist the truth here."

"Auntie, Wanwan and I have a very good relationship. What we were just doing was just playful banter. There's no need for you to lecture me." After saying that, Lu Qiyue pushed Jiang Linwan into the house: "You go inside and rest. I'll take care of things outside."

Jiang Linwan didn't want to cause a scene at Gu Anrou's wedding banquet, so she nodded and went inside.

Liu Guiying glared at her mother-in-law, then followed Jiang Linwan into Gu Anrou's room.

Gu Anrou sat half-upright on the bed and excitedly called out to Jiang Linwan and Guiying, "Linwan, Sister Guiying, come in quickly."

What's going on outside? I hear them arguing.

"She's not even Lu Tuan's aunt, let alone the deputy division commander's wife. She's like a shrew," Liu Guiying said disdainfully, recounting what had just happened.

Mentioning her mother-in-law only fueled her anger, and she looked at Jiang Linwan somewhat embarrassedly: "Linwan, I'll explain things to everyone after the wedding banquet."

My mother-in-law loves to talk nonsense; she left just before the New Year.

Jiang Linwan shook her head: "It's okay. Everyone knows what kind of person I am. If I were to be fooled by someone in just a few words, there would be no point in explaining to them."

"That needs to be explained clearly. Why should our reputation be ruined by these people for no reason?" Gu Anrou said angrily.

Jiang Linwan smiled instantly at her reaction: "You've just finished your postpartum confinement period, you can't get angry."

After she finished speaking, she looked at the little baby next to Gu Anrou with a fondness. The little one was so cute and chubby. She reached out and pinched the little one's chubby cheeks.

The little one didn't cry; instead, she smiled at her, which made Jiang Linwan like her even more: "Have you named her yet?"

"It's named Haiying. My dad named him that. He said he was born on an island and he hoped that Haiying would be a talented person like the sea. We soldiers' children should have a strong character, like the plants and trees by the sea, with vigorous vitality." Gu Anrou said with a look of disdain on her face.

"When you name your child, please find someone with intellectual background. Don't give her a name like mine. What's the point of a girl being resilient? I just want her to be clever and intelligent."
