Chapter 799 - 795: Infertility

Xu Wenwan casually made up an excuse. "That man just now is a friend of my brother’s. I saw him carrying medicine and got a bit worried about whether something happened to his family.

"If something did happen, he wouldn’t say anything, and we’d be kept in the dark. He’s quite withdrawn."

Hearing they were acquaintances, the man breathed a sigh of relief. "He picked up medicine for treating a woman’s cold condition."

Xu Wenwan didn’t understand. "What is a cold condition? What kind of illness is that?"

Seeing her confused expression, the man explained further, "It’s bad for a girl to have too much cold in her body. The more severe it is, the greater the impact on her health. In the worst-case scenario, it can lead to infertility."

Xu Wenwan’s eyes widened in shock before she left the pharmacy with Sun Yeshu.

Sun Yeshu had heard their conversation loud and clear. To sum it up: Leng Yuan came to the County Town to get medicine to treat a cold condition, and a cold condition could cause infertility. Therefore, Gu Jiaojiao truly couldn’t get pregnant!

This was a huge deal!

Surprisingly, Sun Yeshu’s first reaction was joy. If Gu Jiaojiao really couldn’t conceive, there were so many ways she could exploit this. Lost in thought as she pondered the possibilities, she didn’t even realize when they walked out of the pharmacy.

By the time she snapped back to reality, the two of them had already reached a residential area. Sun Yeshu looked up to see Xu Wenwan taking out a key to open a door. As she gazed at the beautiful two-story house before her, a flash of envy crossed her eyes, quickly followed by jealousy.

She used to think the Leng family was well-off and that Leng Qingtian was a good catch, but compared to this house, the Leng family’s home was worlds apart. Curious, she examined the two-story building, finding it grander the longer she looked. This feeling only intensified when she followed Xu Wenwan inside and saw a set of sofa chairs in the living room.

Sun Yeshu had never seen such high-end furniture before. For a moment, she stared at everything in absolute shock.

Xu Wenwan felt a twinge of disdain as she watched Sun Yeshu act like she had never seen the world, but she kept a bright smile on her face.

"Have a seat, Ye Shu!" After saying this, she prepared to take the large meat buns she was holding into the kitchen.

Sun Yeshu glanced at the food and spoke up, looking a bit embarrassed. "Wen Wan, I’m pregnant and a little hungry."

Taken aback for a moment, Xu Wenwan pulled out a meat bun and handed it to her.

Life with the An family was quite good. Not only did they always have enough to eat, but they also had meat on the dinner table every now and then. However, no matter how much money one had, meat ration coupons were limited. The black market had been deserted lately, with even fewer people selling goods. While one might occasionally find grains for sale, meat was a rare commodity. If you were lucky, you might run into someone selling a hen; if you were unlucky, you wouldn’t see a single meat vendor for an entire month.

Because of this, Xu Wenwan was also craving the large meat buns. After giving one to Sun Yeshu, she took the rest into the kitchen.

"Stingy," Sun Yeshu muttered in her heart, though on the surface, she happily munched on the large meat bun. The meat buns from the state-run restaurant were huge and generously stuffed; eating just one was enough to fill her up.

They weren’t cheap, though—they cost twenty cents each! Fortunately, Xu Wenwan was the one paying, which made the bun taste even more delicious.

Xu Wenwan frowned as she watched Sun Yeshu eat. If she didn’t need the woman’s help with something, she never would have brought her home!

Once Sun Yeshu finished the bun, Xu Wenwan finally spoke up. "Ye Shu, thank you so much for your help today. I just didn’t expect that you were already married, and pregnant too! Congratulations."

Since leaving the Qingshan Team, Xu Wenwan hadn’t heard a single piece of news about the village. Hearing that Sun Yeshu was pregnant suddenly brought on a wave of nostalgia.

It had been almost a year since she moved here.
