Marry a female star at a bargain price

Chapter 179 178. You owe me two children

Ronghua Hotel is very close to Jili Garden.

So after the dinner, Han Xixi, the only person who didn't drink, drove her parents-in-law back to Tianlanyuan, while Liu Liyun and Han Haijun walked home.

The in-laws from both sides waved goodbye warmly at the hotel entrance.

In front of the man's family, Liu Liyun gave her husband enough face.

But as soon as her daughter's car merged into the traffic, her expression changed immediately.

"Are you drunk? What nonsense are you talking about in front of your in-laws?"

Liu Liyun was obviously angry, but she tried her best to lower her voice when questioning, keeping the volume low enough that only she and her husband could hear it.

The couple walked home.

Han Haijun smiled calmly and said, "It's just a few glasses of wine. Can I drink too much? I came up with this idea after careful consideration!"

Liu Liyun was silent.

She knew that her husband had always regretted not having a son, so to be honest, she was not surprised when he made this suggestion today.

But understanding is understanding, and it doesn't stop her from being angry.

"I understand that you want to have a grandson! Please discuss this with Xiaolin and Xixi!"

Liu Liyun said coldly, "Xixi is your own daughter, and Xiaolin is not an unreasonable person. Sit down calmly as a family, and talk to them nicely. How can they not agree with you? Why did you have to launch a surprise attack when the in-laws met, and didn't even tell me in advance, making the situation so awkward today!"

Han Haijun strolled leisurely without saying a word.

Liu Liyun asked anxiously: "Why aren't you talking again?!"

Han Haijun then spoke slowly: "When you get angry, can you listen to what I say? Wait until you calm down!"

Seeing her husband's calm and composed look, Liu Liyun knew that although his actions today seemed reckless and impulsive, they actually had deeper meaning.

I became more and more curious about his original intention.

She suppressed her anger and said, "You talk, I listen!"

Han Haijun then said, "You said Xiaolin is reasonable? Not really! You saw it at the dinner table just now. I said so much, most people would definitely give in. But he was very eloquent and blocked my words in a few seconds... Do you think he would agree to it in private?"

Liu Liyun frowned and was speechless for a moment.

After a long while, she said, "Maybe Xiaolin just doesn't like being forced. Maybe if we talk it over, it will make sense."

Han Haijun smiled and shook his head: "You don't understand this matter as well as Xiaolin!"

Liu Liyun was puzzled.

"What do you mean?"

"This matter cannot be discussed. The more we discuss it, the less likely it will work!"

"Please explain it more clearly!" Liu Liyun became anxious again.

Han Haijun smiled bitterly and said, "To put it bluntly, it's what Xiaolin said at the dinner table!"

He paused and continued, "Having two children, one with the surname Lin and the other with the surname Han, sounds fair. But in fact, you can tell from what I hear that I want a grandson. If I have a granddaughter with the surname Han, it doesn't make much sense!
"If we sit down and discuss this matter slowly, it will be like what Lin Xiao analyzed. We have to consider what to do if Xixi gives birth to a son and a daughter, or two daughters? This will not satisfy both families. Since there is no way to satisfy them, there will be no result from the discussion. It is better not to discuss it!

"So, I deliberately wanted to take advantage of the warm atmosphere when the in-laws met and suddenly bring up this matter, so that they would agree without thinking it through - if they agree first, after Xixi gives birth to a child, there will be a chance for the grandson to take my surname!"

When Liu Liyun heard this, she suddenly realized.

She was wondering just now that her husband had always been a cautious person and rarely took rash risks.

Why would he suddenly have such an idea after drinking two glasses of wine with his in-laws and making everyone unhappy?

It turns out he had his plans.

Just as he guessed, if he sat down and considered this matter in advance, he would have to analyze every possibility.

If a man gave birth to a son and a daughter, would the son’s surname be Han and the daughter’s surname be Lin?
After giving birth to two daughters, do I still have to try for a son?
The first one is the son, is his surname Lin or Han...

Every possibility must be taken into consideration. The more detailed the discussion, the more likely it is that the talks will fail!

It would be better to have a sudden idea at the dinner table, betting that the in-laws are honest and the son-in-law is thin-skinned, and agree to it without thinking.

The subsequent details can be discussed slowly!
There is nothing wrong with the South Korean Navy's strategy - it is better to seek danger than to take risks!
He never expected that his son-in-law would see through his plan at a glance, and then directly rejected it without giving him any face!
This made the Han Navy very depressed!

After Liu Liyun understood her husband's painstaking efforts, her anger subsided and she sighed.

"Now that your son-in-law disagrees, what are you going to do?"

"If your son-in-law disagrees, just discuss it with your daughter!"

Han Haijun smiled and said, "Our family's conditions are better than theirs, that's a fact! And we have brought up our daughter so well, and we don't want a penny for the bride price. Isn't it just for a daughter to have a position in her husband's family after marriage?
"Lin Xiao also said just now that he would fully respect Xixi's wishes regarding having children. If my daughter is willing to give me a grandson, he will have nothing to say, right?"

Han Haijun looked mature and determined.

Liu Liyun curled her lips.

She thought to herself that girls are outgoing. Have you not seen how your daughter is now? She can't even stay at home for half a day. She put down her luggage and drove to find her husband. With such clinginess, how can you expect her to give birth to grandchildren for her father? I think if she gives birth to ten or eight children, they must all be from the Lin family!
He kept these words in his heart, but did not say them out loud in front of Han Haijun.

Let Mayor Han dream on!
……

the other side.

Han Xixi sent her parents-in-law to Tianlanyuan. In order to reduce the risk of being recognized, she did not go upstairs.

Lin Xiao knew that his wife must have something to say to him, so he let his parents go up by themselves, and he took the initiative to volunteer to accompany her for a walk in the dark neighborhood.

After walking around, the atmosphere became a little awkward.

At the beginning of the second round, Han Xixi finally mustered up the courage to speak: "Brother... I really don't know what my father said at the dinner table just now. He never mentioned it to me at all..."

His tone was somewhat humble, and it was obvious that he was afraid that Lin Xiao would misunderstand that the three of them had colluded, so he deliberately forced him to submit at the dinner table!

Lin Xiao just smiled and pinched her little face: "I know!"

Han Xixi breathed a sigh of relief.

The two held hands tightly and slowly started the second circle.

"so……"

Han Xixi mustered up the courage to speak again, "Brother, my father's suggestion... is it really not possible?"

Lin Xiao stopped and looked at her.

A pair of pitch-black eyes reflected soft light under the dim street lights in the community, looking charming and touching.

He snorted lightly and said seriously: "Let's analyze this problem bit by bit!"

Han Xixi frowned slightly, looking extremely serious.

"First, have you decided to have two children?" Lin Xiao asked.

"..."

Han Xixi paused, then shook her head.

Lin Xiao expected this and continued to ask: "Let's assume that we really have two children in the future, regardless of whether they are boys or girls. Let one of them be surnamed Lin and the other surnamed Han. When the children grow up and ask you why one of them has the father's surname and the other has the mother's surname, how will you explain it?"

Han Xixi frowned: "Just... tell the truth!"

Lin Xiao smiled and said, "Okay, tell the truth! If we have a boy and a girl, and the boy has your father's surname Han, your daughter will immediately ask you if your grandfather doesn't like her and despises her for being a girl. How will you answer?"

Han Xixi had nothing to say.

Lin Xiao continued, "Let's assume that we have two sons. The elder brother's surname is Lin, and the younger brother's surname is Han like your father. Then the younger brother asks us in the future if we don't like him and why he doesn't have our father's surname? How would you answer?"

Han Xixi became less and less talkative, and his brows furrowed more and more.

Lin Xiao said: "Even if these questions are answered truthfully, we can gain the children's understanding. But since the two children have different surnames, the elders on both sides will definitely treat them differently. Everyone will love their own 'grandson' more. This is human nature, right?
"Over time, there will definitely be a gap between the two children, and even various conflicts will arise. But the premise of having two children is definitely to hope that they can have each other as companions, right? Aren't these two things completely contradictory?!"

After some explanation, Han Xixi finally understood Lin Xiao's painstaking efforts, and her frown slowly relaxed.

Put yourself in their shoes.

If she had a younger brother who took her mother's surname, Liu, she would definitely find it strange.

"And guess what, why didn't your father discuss it with us in private, but had to bring it up suddenly at the dinner table?" Lin Xiao asked with a smile.

"Ok?"

Xixi was a little surprised.

Her attention was always on whether this matter was feasible, and she didn't realize that the time and place when her father mentioned this matter were actually a bit outrageous.

"Why?" she asked, really unable to figure it out at the moment.

"..."

Lin Xiao sighed.

In fact, I am reluctant to deconstruct my father-in-law's selfishness in this way, but I have to say: "Because your father doesn't have the confidence to control me!"

This wording made Xixi frown.

She is not an ignorant little white flower who knows how the world works. She knows how complicated the relationship between father-in-law and son-in-law can be. She has personal experience of this from her grandfather and father.

Han Haijun’s successful career is inseparable from the support of his father-in-law Liu Zhongshan.

Han Haijun is also very grateful and respectful to his father-in-law.

But now, his official position has surpassed that of Liu Zhongshan before he abdicated. This leap inevitably made him feel proud in front of his father-in-law.

As for Liu Zhongshan, he had been planning for his entire life, but his two sons were cowardly and his two grandsons were mediocre. However, his two daughters were capable, his sons-in-law were also outstanding, and his only adult granddaughter was nationally famous in her career.

In this situation, Liu Zhongshan didn't even know whether to be proud or sigh.

He knew that the future of his two grandchildren and even great-grandchildren would depend on his eldest daughter's family.

So as he got older, his attitude towards the Korean Navy became more friendly and even a little flattering.

Han Xixi saw all of this.

Being well aware of this, she could naturally guess quickly that if Lin Xiao was just an ordinary cadre, he would be able to gain a foothold in the organization and rise rapidly with the help of his father.

Then what my dad proposed at the dinner table today is not a problem at all.

There's no need to drag this matter out until the in-laws meet. It can be resolved over any meal!
He mentioned it casually, and as a son-in-law, Lin Xiao had no room for objection at all. He even had to thank his father-in-law for his kindness for not requiring all the children to have the surname Han and for leaving descendants for the Lin family!

But what Han Haijun didn't expect was that his son-in-law was so capable.

A grassroots cadre can actually write songs!
As soon as a few hit songs came out, Han Xixi immediately gained a firm foothold in the music scene and became a well-known singer that attracted much attention. Even after being blackened by the entire internet several times, she was able to quickly turn the situation around and take her career to a higher level.

Not only can he write songs, he is also very courageous and capable at work.

As the father-in-law, Han Haijun just wanted to work on behalf of his son-in-law in Ninghai and second him to the higher authorities.

As a result, he immediately signed up for the Qingmiao Program to go to the townships.

Still doing well in the town!

Before he had the chance to take advantage of his father-in-law, he used his personal connections to bring in the Benda Group, thus giving his father-in-law a political achievement!
In this case, even if Han Haijun wanted to show off in front of his son-in-law, he really couldn't do it.

This was the only way to take a risky move, to catch them off guard at the in-laws' dinner party, and also catch Han Xixi off guard. After figuring this out, Xixi looked a little embarrassed, not knowing how to face Lin Xiao.

My parents thought they fell in love at first sight and were in love freely.

But she knew how she and Lin Xiao got their marriage certificate.

In the beginning of this marriage, she asked and he responded, so in the end, she owed him a favor.

Now her father doesn't know what's going on and wants to take advantage of her husband.

This sudden change made Xixi feel embarrassed and her face was full of shame. She felt that she was the one who brought Lin Xiao into this fire pit.

If I didn't have a family like mine.

With Lin Xiao's looks, abilities and family background, his priority in choosing a spouse would definitely rank among the top few in Anyang County, and the question of whose surname the child will take would not even be raised as an issue!

Thinking of this, Xixi felt more and more apologetic.

"Brother, I'm sorry..." She said with her head lowered.

"What are you sorry for?" Lin Xiao was surprised.

Xixi sighed: "Today, the parents of both sides met, and the atmosphere was pretty good. My dad suddenly became like this... Your parents must be very sad, right? And you, too..."

Before he finished speaking, Lin Xiao burst into laughter.

Han Xixi was a little confused, and then a little angry, stamping her feet and said, "I'm serious, why are you laughing?"

Lin Xiao quickly stopped laughing and said with a smug look on his face, "People say that when you get a wife, you forget your mother, but in your case, how come you forget your father when you get a husband? The wedding hasn't even started yet, and you're already rushing to speak for your husband and leaving your father aside?"

The sudden sarcasm made Xixi feel embarrassed and awkward.

"You...I'm ignoring you!"

The girl was so angry that she shook off his hand and walked away.

Lin Xiao hurried over to grab him.

Just as they reached the shade of a tree, he exerted force, pulled his wife into his arms, and held her tightly.

The calf in his arms struggled for a long time, but when he saw that he couldn't get free, he finally gave in and stopped moving.

Lin Xiao then said: "Wife, you don't have to apologize. In fact, your father is not wrong, and neither am I!"

Han Xixi hummed in confusion.

"Whose fault is that?"

"No one is wrong, it's just a matter of different concepts!"

Lin Xiao said seriously, "In traditional marriage customs and mainstream social concepts, it is fine for children to take the man's surname. But the premise for the child to take the man's surname is that the man bears all expenses such as buying a house and betrothal gifts, and the woman leaves her original family and joins the man's family, and the child will naturally take the man's surname.

"This type of marriage and love still occupies the mainstream of society! However, with the gradual popularity of the idea of ​​gender equality, men and women now jointly contribute money to form a small family. The proportion of this new marriage and love model is increasing, and we are this type.

"Your income is higher than mine, and your family conditions are better than mine. In terms of the standard of living after marriage, you definitely don't have to take advantage of the man. In this case, I certainly have no right to demand that our child must have my last name in the future. So, your father's request is actually very reasonable, he is right!"

Lin Xiao's speech confused Han Xixi.

"Brother, so what you mean is... that you agree that one of our future children will have the same last name as me, Han?"

"That's it!"

Lin Xiao's smile was a little strange.

Han Xixi was even more confused: "But didn't you reject my dad at the dinner table just now?"

Lin Xiao sighed and said seriously, "Silly Xixi, don't you understand what I mean? I am not against the child taking your last name. I am against your father insisting on having a grandson. Although he didn't say so, we all know that's what he meant, right?"

Han Xixi nodded.

Lin Xiao said seriously: "If I agree to him at the dinner table, then what will you become, a fertility machine? If the first child is a daughter, you must have a second child. What if the second child is also a daughter? Will you keep giving birth like this?"

Han Xixi stopped talking and frowned, then realized the seriousness of the problem.

Lin Xiao said: "I can understand your father's desire to have a grandson, but no one can arrange this matter. It depends on God. Since no one can make the decision, I can't agree to him. Do you understand what I mean now?"

Han Xixi looked confused, nodded, and then shook her head.

Lin Xiao smiled speechlessly.

He poked his stupid wife's head and said patiently, "Let me ask you, have you decided how many children you want to have in the future?"

Xixi shook her head.

Lin Xiao clapped his hands and said, "That's right! You haven't even decided how many children you want to have, how can I agree to your dad to give birth to two children, one with the surname Lin and the other with the surname Han?"

Xixi finally understood, and a glimmer of hope appeared in her eyes.

She thought for a moment and said embarrassedly: "Brother, um...if you agree, then...I think having two children...seems like it's okay..."

The more she spoke, the softer her voice became, and she almost buried her head in Lin Xiao's neck.

Lin Xiao was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter in surprise and unexpectedly.

"So sloppy?"

"Well...it's not too hasty!"

Xixi drew circles on his chest with her fingers, tickling him.

She said softly, "You and my father are the two most important men in my life... I don't want to disappoint either of you, and I also like children very much. When I was a child, I always wanted to have a brother or sister... Now that we have the conditions, I really want to have two... or more..."

After saying this, Han Xixi was too embarrassed to raise her head. Her warm lips moved on his shoulders and neck, and she exhaled light hot air from her nose.

Lin Xiao felt even more restless.

"Have you thought it through?" He asked softly, touching his wife's long hair.

"Well... of course I need your consent. I can't have a baby alone..."

"I agree!"

Lin Xiao's mouth was filled with a smile from the bottom of his heart, "I agree, I totally agree!"

Xixi chuckled and stopped talking. She tilted her head on his shoulder, as soft as a kitten.

The night is peaceful and the air is calm.

The sweet atmosphere slowly ferments in the early summer night breeze.

"Oh, that's not right!"

Han Xixi suddenly thought of something, loosened her arms and said seriously, "Brother, but didn't you just say that if the two children took their father and mother's surnames respectively, it would cause estrangement between them?"

Lin Xiao nodded and said with a smile: "It is indeed possible, but as long as we as parents can predict it in advance and hold the bowl of water in the middle, there will be no problem!"

Han Xixi nodded in confusion.

Then he looked excited, tilted his head and asked, "Then the problem is solved, right?"

Lin Xiao poked her forehead and said helplessly: "Where is the solution? This plan can only ensure that your father can have a third generation with the surname Han, but not necessarily a grandson. What he wants is a grandson!"

Han Xixi suddenly realized and fell into confusion again.

"Yeah, what should we do then?"

"There's no solution to this!"

Lin Xiao said helplessly, "Two children with two surnames, I agree, and I can also make one more concession and let your father choose for himself, whether he wants the first child to have the surname Han, or the second! This matter must be decided now!"

Han Xixi was surprised and suspicious: "Why do we have to decide now?"

Lin Xiao said: "For this kind of thing, the longer you delay, the more likely you are to complain, and once you complain, it's easy for something to go wrong! Anyway, I firmly disagree with checking the gender in advance, and I also disagree with your father regretting after you get pregnant, affecting your ability to keep the fetus - after all, he values ​​his grandson. But no matter whether the surname of the baby in your belly is Lin or Han, it is my child. Your health and their health are the most important to me!"

These words were said sincerely, which warmed Han Xixi's heart.

Then he thought that he and Lin Xiao had just reached the step of meeting each other's parents, and now they took a sudden leap and even discussed the matter of having a second child.

The speed is a bit too fast.

She was a little frightened and a little shy, but more of her was the calmness and sweetness of marrying the right person.

"Brother, have you really decided?" she asked in disbelief.

"It's decided!"

"What if my dad chooses a son and you choose a daughter? Wouldn't you be angry?"

"why are you mad?"

Lin Xiao laughed, "I'm not the emperor. If I don't have the throne, I have to give it to my son! And I still say what I said just now, no matter if it's a son or a daughter, they are all my blood, and this is a fact that cannot be changed!"

Although the words were rude, Xixi found them extremely pleasant to hear and thought the man in front of her was extremely handsome.

I couldn't help but stand on tiptoe and give her a kiss.

Lin Xiao was caught off guard by the kiss. He felt as if the world was brightened up and he wanted to drag his wife into the woods on the spot.

He forced himself to hold it back.

"Brother, your parents..."

"Don't worry, I'll do their job!"

Lin Xiao smiled slyly, "Even if my son really takes your father's surname, it doesn't matter... We still have Lin Yu to carry on our family line!"

Han Xixi was shocked and felt guilty when her brother-in-law was suddenly mentioned.

When I think of the boy's handsome and introverted face, I always feel sorry for him.

She immediately patted her chest and assured: "Brother, with your words, I feel relieved. Don't worry, I will do my dad's work, and I guarantee that he will accept this plan!!"

Lin Xiao grinned, but still had some doubts.

"Are you sure you can handle him? I see that the mayor's desire for a grandson is very strong!"

"Do not worry!"

Han Xixi was full of confidence. "If he doesn't accept it, I will directly accuse him of favoring boys over girls and ask him if he despises me! Even if I can't cure him, there is still my mother! If he refuses to give in and insists on having a grandson, isn't that the same as complaining that my mother didn't give him a son? Can my mother forgive him?"

When Lin Xiao heard this, his eyes lit up. It was indeed the case.

I immediately felt relieved, and breathed a sigh of relief as this farce ended successfully.

Looking at the girl in front of him, with a bright smile and eyes like stars, she was so beautiful that he saw the most beautiful life at a glance.

He walked closer, leaned over and kissed her delicate cheek, then pressed his forehead against hers and called her name.

"Han Xixi!"

"Ok?"

"You owe me two children now... When will you give them to me?" Lin Xiao said in a hot tone.
