?Chapter 1025:


    Gabri turned to face Le, who was walking towards them. Her expression turned serious as she nodded and said, “Great-grandma bought me fish and let me enjoy the sun. She said you will return with a new baby!”


    Le, who had just reached Gabri’s side, halted in her tracks upon hearing her words.


    “Grandma, why did you say that to her?” Eileen was amused.


    “Aren’t you pregnant?” Le asked. In her generation, it was believed that frequent vomiting was a sign of pregnancy.


    “No,” Eileen lifted Gabri and gestured towards the collection of medicine Bryan had removed from the car. “I have gastritis, and the doctor has prescribed various medicines that taste quite bitter.”


    Today, after she had been diagnosed with gastritis, the doctor had prescribed some medicines for her. Le’s disappointment was palpable. She then looked at Bryan, silently seeking confirmation.


    “Yes, she is just suffering from gastritis, not pregnant,” Bryan confirmed.


    He couldn’t help but feel for Eileen. She was so thin now.


    “When will Eileen get pregnant?” Le sighed, turned, and walked into the yard, muttering, “Will I still have the chance toy eyes on my second great-grandchild before I die?”


    Just a few days ago, Le had told Eileen that her greatest desire now was to pass away soon and share the joyful news that Eileen had returned to the family with Dottie in heaven. However, now it seemed that she had since revised her wish.


    Eileen passed Gabri to Bryan and hastened to Le’s side, gently taking her arm. “Don’t worry. It’ll happen.”


    ???????? ?????????????? ???? ??????????????????.??????


    Le rolled her eyes at her. “How can I not be worried? Come with me.”


    Eileen trailed behind Le into the living room, feeling confused. There, she noticed an invitation card lying on the table.


    “I’ve received an invitation from an old friend of mine who established a renowned family in Alverton. She has five generations in her family. Now, she has asked me to attend a celebration marking her great-great-grandson’s hundredth day.” Le emphasized that her friend had a great-great-grandson.


    Eileen looked resigned and replied, “Then maybe you shouldn’t attend.”


    Gabri was still just a young child, and it would be at least two decades before she would be old enough to get married and have a child. By then, the family of Le’s old friend would have expanded to include six generations.


    Her family couldn’tpare with her friend’s at all!


    “No, I can’t. You have finally returned to our family, and I need to show you off! While we can’t match my friend in terms of generations, we can outdo her in the number of descendants. Her family has only one child per generation, so you need to have more kids to help us win!” Le said with a serious expression.


    A surge of pressure washed over Eileen, and she was struck by a scene from her imagination: she was holding two children in her arms.


    “Le, you make a valid point, but Eileen’s health is fragile at the moment. She needs to rest now. Once she’s stronger, she’ll be able to meet your expectations regarding the number of children.” Bryan approached, subtly nudging Eileen’s shoulder.


    The corners of Eileen’s mouth twitched. What did he mean?
