Boss, He’s Becoming a Father [Arc 1] Chapter 30.1: The Prodigal Son (57)
“She says you are kind-hearted and down-to-earth.” When Shao Yu said this, he felt that it was difficult to connect these four words with Shao Dabao.
But this is indeed what the woman said.
Shao Yu originally wanted to deal with the matter coldly and continue to observe his cheap son for a while, but the woman recognized Shao Dabao.
Dr. Lu has always been very optimistic about Shao Dabao because of his life-saving grace in the past. With this filter, Dr. Lu couldn’t see any of Shao Dabao’s shortcomings, and even caused his daughter Lu Yun’er to be misled. .
Doctor Lu doesn’t dislike Dabao for being just a salesman now, but feels that Shao Dabao, who can calm down and walk around the streets is stable, and he is more willing to marry his only daughter to Shao Dabao, even at the expense of the girl’s face, he took the initiative to come to Shao Yu to mention this matter.
Shao Dabao has performed well during this period, and the woman has such an attitude which is so determined, it seems wrong if they don’t marry, and so Shao Yu can’t continue to block. Shao Yu then thought again and felt that nothing could happen with Shao Dabao as long as he was watching. The best thing is to leave more protection for the woman.
“Really?” Shao Dabao couldn’t suppress the smile at the corner of his mouth, and asked again: “Why is she so blind… No, how can she be so discerning.”
Shao Yu smiled and said, “Maybe it’s not you that people are interested in.”
After hearing this, Shao Dabao’s face suddenly fell and he said: “It turns out it’s not me who they fell in love with, so I was happy in vain.”
For a moment, Shao Dabao felt as if he had gone from heaven to hell.
Seeing him change his face like this, Shao Yu didn’t find it strange, and continued: “People are looking for a great hero who encounters injustice on the road, are you a great hero?”
Shao Dabao now knows himself well enough, shook his head, and said, “I just want to live well, being a hero is too dangerous.”
“Forget it, I will tell her that she got the wrong person.” Shao Yu said.
After hearing this, Shao Dabao felt that things could turn around. He didn’t expect the duck to fly, so he asked one more question: “Why did she recognize the wrong person? Dad, who are you talking about?”
Shao Yu did not return directly, but asked: “If there is a girl who likes you, and her family is also very reasonable and unwilling to embarrass you for the bride price, how would you feel?”
“I would feel she really likes me.” Shao Dabao’s answer was very true.
He has experienced days when he was doted on by his family, and he has also experienced days when he was rejected by his family. After experiencing life and death, he also understood that if he had no money, it would be really difficult for him to marry a wife.
Therefore, if there is a girl who is willing to do this, she must have fallen in love with him.
Shao Yu didn’t want to hear such an answer, so he stopped trying to be pretentious and asked directly: “Will you look down on her because of this?”
Shao Dabao immediately said: “How can this be? How could I treat someone who is good to me like this? I am not that kind of person.”
Shao Yu just smiled when he heard this. Shao Dabao had no shortage of people who were kind to him in the past, but none of these people had a good ending. Therefore, these words naturally had no credibility in Shao Yu’s eyes.
“Being nice to someone is more than words.” Shao Yu said with a smile.
“As long as she sincerely lives with me, I will give her what she wants even if I risk my life. As long as she says a word, I will do it even if it means going up mountains of swords and seas of fire.” Shao Dabao said.
He has been a bachelor for more than 20 years. Seeing his peers getting married and having children, but he is still alone, Shao Dabao has always been very anxious, but he is completely unable to do anything. Now that he has such an opportunity, he naturally allows everything.
“What’s the use of talking? If you’re serious, you should hand over your money to her.” Shao Yu said.
Shao Dabao’s expression changed after hearing this. For a man, money is like dignity. At this time, he was naturally unwilling to hand his dignity into the hands of a strange woman.
“Since you don’t want to, then let it go. You won’t even give the money to your wife. It shows that your sincerity is measured in weight.” Shao Yu said.
Shao Yu didn’t care whether the old Shao family was going to end, but Shao Dabao was very concerned, and immediately said, “Yes, I am willing.”
When he said this, he felt a pain in his heart, and he only felt that the days of fun and debauchery that he had been dreaming of were gradually drifting away from him, but when he thought of marrying a wife and having children, he immediately felt that everything was worth it.
“You are willing to give the money you earn to your wife, which shows that you are quite good.”
Shao Dabao nodded frantically. At this time, he was only interested in marrying a wife and having babies.
“But…”
Shao Yu’s sudden change of topic made Shao Dabao’s heart rise.
“Forget it, you are the one who wants to continue the old Shao family lineage. Even if such a good girl marries you, I’m afraid she won’t be able to bear such a heavy burden.”
Shao Dabao suddenly became anxious and said, “How come continuing the family line has become a heavy burden?”
“To carry on the family line, you must get pregnant again and again until you give birth to a son. Every time you give birth to a child, it is a gate of hell for a woman. It is better not to let such a good girl be harmed by you.” Shao Yu said.
After hearing this, Shao Dabao said: “Isn’t it something every woman has to experience when giving birth? Besides, it’s not that exaggerated. Didn’t my mother give birth to me the first time?”
“Every woman has experienced it, so it’s not hard?” Shao Yu asked.
Shao Dabao did not speak.
Shao Yu added: “Just from what you have heard, how many women have died in childbirth?”
“The wife of the Chen family at the entrance of the alley had a difficult delivery last month in order to give birth to her fifth child. Neither the child nor the mother survived.”
Shao Dabao lowered his head. During this time, he walked through the streets and heard a lot of things happening in the alleys. There were many rich people in the east of the city, so such things were relatively rare, but there were more poor people in the south of the city, so every once in a while, he would always hear the news that someone’s wife died in childbirth.
Even in the modern era with the rapid development of medical technology, giving birth to a child is still a matter of half-stepping into the door of death, let alone in a place where medical care is so backward.
“How can there be so many people who are as unlucky as they are, who have given birth to so many babies and failed to give birth to a son.” Shao Dabao said.
Shao Yu glanced at him and said, “According to you, a lucky person can give birth to a son as the first child?”
Shao Dabao nodded hesitantly, always feeling that there was a trap hidden in Shao Yu’s words, but he didn’t know where the trap was for the moment.
“The fact that she’s attracted to you shows that this girl is not very lucky. You’d better not harm her.” Shao Yu said.
Shao Dabao:…
He didn’t expect that he was so careful and still stepped into Shao Yu’s trap.
“What does daddy want me to do?” Shao Dabao asked in a low voice. Although he asked this, his heart was a little shaken. He just thought that if there were no children, it would be a good idea to have someone to accompany him and always go forward and retreat with him. Not a bad thing.
“Why do you have children?” Shao Yu asked.
