Married at First Sight.


Chapter 4431.


“What are you thanking me for? We’ve been mother-in-law and daughter-in-law for decades— more like mother and daughter. If anything, I should be the one thanking you for giving me two wonderful grandsons. And now, I’m even a great-grandmother.”


The old lady gently patted Tania’s hand and said warmly, “As long as you and your husband take good care of yourselves and stay healthy, you’ll live to enjoy the blessings of your children and grandchildren. When you get to be my age, you’ll have a house full of family too.”


Tania smiled. “If I live long enough to become a great-grandmother, I’ll be smiling in my dreams.”


“Why not?” the old lady said. “You could easily live into your eighties or nineties. Just look at Mr. Jimenez—he’s nearly a hundred and still going strong. Now that he’s living with Audrey, he’s in even better spirits. He might just make it past a hundred. That’s what happens when someone’s at peace and happy. He’s done worrying—now all he has to do is enjoy his grandkids. Zack and Tatum are both good kids. You’ll see—just enjoy the blessings. This little one is only a few days old now, but time flies. Before you know it, he’ll be all grown up.”


She handed the baby boy to Tania, his grandmother.


As Tania held him, she said with a nostalgic smile, “Just like when Zack was born. One minute he was a baby, and now he’s in his thirties.” She laughed softly. “Yes, yes, I’ll listen to you, Mom. I’ll try not to worry so much or get too involved. I’ll relax and do my best to live a long life. I’m really falling for this little guy—he’s such a handsome baby.”


There’s something about holding your own grandchild—you never get tired of looking at them. To you, they’re the most beautiful baby in the world.


“They’re bound to be good-looking,” the old lady said. “Just look at Zack and Seren—they’re both beautiful people. Their kids were never going to be anything but cute. After four or five


years, maybe they’ll have a second child—a little girl. Then I can hold my greatgranddaughter, and when I see your father-in-law in the afterlife, I’ll be at peace.”


Tania looked at her mother-in-law, a bit concerned. “Mom, do you think that fortune-teller was right? Can Zack and Seren really have both a boy and a girl? Zack was so anxious during the whole pregnancy—and even more nervous when Seren gave birth. I’m not sure he’d be willing to go through that again. Honestly, I don’t want Seren to have a second child either. I already think of her as my daughter, and what mother wants to see her daughter go through all that again?”


When Tania was younger, she and her husband had tried for a daughter but were never successful. She had also watched her sisters-in-law go through multiple pregnancies hoping for a girl, but it didn’t happen.


Even with good living conditions and excellent postpartum care, pregnancy still takes a toll.


She did want a granddaughter in her heart, but she couldn’t bring herself to pressure her daughter-in-law to try for one.


After a moment of quiet, the old lady said, “The fortune-teller might be right, but whether or not to have a second child is entirely up to them. As elders, we should let things happen naturally and not pressure them. From now on, we should avoid bringing up the idea of having a daughter in front of the younger generation. Just let things be.”


She, too, felt sympathy for her granddaughters-in-law.


“Zack has eight brothers in this generation—so the odds are better. Let nature take its course. And if it doesn’t happen, we’ll just treat our daughters-in-law like daughters.”


She smiled and added gently, “I’ve always treated your three sisters-in-law like my own daughters, and I’ve always loved you like one too. We’ve always gotten along like a real mother and daughter.”


Just then, Serenity walked in after breakfast.


As soon as the two women saw her enter, they stopped the conversation. They didn’t want to put any pressure on her.


If word got out, people might say the mothers-in-law didn’t care about their daughters-in-law— that they were already pushing for a second baby just days after the first was born.
