Chapter 1202: Chapter 1202: Return to the Country

Zhou Siyu couldn’t understand Zhao Xinlan’s thoughts. If she stayed, that would mean competing with Zhao Xinlan for the same husband. Did Zhao Xinlan not feel jealous at all?

Zhao Xinlan sneered, "Siyu, don’t you understand our situation yet? In my heart, Xiaolong has never been a husband; he’s a liar, a human trafficker. Do you think I’d have any feelings for him? If it wasn’t for relying on him to live, I’d have thoughts of killing him. Besides, Xiaolong doesn’t have just the two of us. He has several other wives. If we don’t stick together and support each other, we’ll be bullied to death."

Now, they were grasshoppers on the same rope.

Zhou Siyu was convinced by Zhao Xinlan. Zhao Xinlan was right; Xiaolong was a human trafficker. It seemed that Zhao Xinlan understood life more clearly.

"Fine, in the future, we’ll raise the children together and match wits with them."

"I have four children now, and with another on the way, that will make five. The eldest are already over four years old. In another decade or so when the children are grown, life won’t be as hard," Zhao Xinlan glanced at Zhou Siyu’s belly. "You’d better have more children too. With children to support us, no one will be able to bully us."

Hearing about having children, Zhou Siyu felt unhappy but also knew that indeed, having more children was a way out.

The two silently reached an understanding, deciding to stick together and slowly make things better in a foreign land.

...

Lu Siyuan had been abroad for over half a month before returning to his home country. Upon returning, he didn’t even go home but went straight to Shen Mianmian’s place. Sitting down, he deliberately left them hanging, "Guess who I ran into abroad."

"Zhou Siyu."

Shen Mianmian and Yang Xiaoxi said in unison.

They looked at each other and then turned their gaze to Lu Siyuan together.

"It wasn’t really Zhou Siyu, was it?"

They all thought of Zhou Siyu first because, amongst the people they all knew, there was no one else.

"You guys are good; you guessed it right away," Lu Siyuan sighed and looked at He Xiaobei playing in the yard. He smiled and said, "Look, out of all of us, Mianmian is the first to have a child, and she only has one. Do you have any idea how many children Zhao Xinlan and Zhou Siyu have?"

Before they could respond, he continued, "Six. Both of them have six children, and each of them is pregnant with another."

Shen Mianmian was somewhat surprised but, after thinking about the situation over there, didn’t find it surprising after all. Zhou Siyu and Zhao Xinlan were both good-looking and petite, naturally becoming sought-after there. There was no family planning policy there; having children whenever you have them was the norm.

Yang Xiaoxi was shocked, "No way? Is she a pig? One child a year, four births in a row, doesn’t she care about her health at all?"

"Zhou Siyu has been sold seven or eight times now. Do you think anyone cares about their health?" Lu Siyuan said, "You’re still too naive."

"What about Zhou Lanfang?" Shen Mianmian was curious. If Zhou Siyu was so popular there, wouldn’t Zhou Lanfang be in demand as well?

"She’s not much different, sold twice already," Lu Siyuan sneered. "Both Zhou Lanfang and Zhou Siyu got what they deserved. Mianmian, don’t waste your sympathy on them."

Shen Mianmian smiled, "I’m not sympathetic towards them; I’m just curious."

Hearing this, Lu Siyuan shared Zhou Siyu’s situation, "As soon as they arrived there, Xiaolong took away their passports. Zhou Siyu was not as sensible as Zhao Xinlan and was quickly sold. Zhao Xinlan had several children, all Xiaolong’s. Although life is tough for her too, compared to Zhou Siyu, it’s like heaven and earth."
