In the evening, when Andy got off work, Tina got a plate of snake meat from somewhere and placed it in the middle of the table.
I ate vegetables quietly, pretending to ignore others.
"Olivia has a good appetite, so it must be a boy. Sophia, look at you! You can't even bear a son for my family?" Tina complained, very unhappy about it.
Meanwhile, she kept talking about how nutritious snake meat was.
Andy didn't speak for me, just asking me why I didn't eat.
I considerately put the meat into his bowl and said guiltily, "Mom is right. Since I can't bear a son, how can I have the right to eat such high-quality food?"
He dispelled suspicions and nodded in agreement, swallowing deeply.
After ensuring that three of them had eaten it, I smiled with satisfaction.
Afterwards, I repented and apologized to the baby in my belly.
"Dear, I'm sorry, but there's nothing mommy can do."
After dinner, I stood up and went back to my room, but Tina stopped me.
