Benjamin Martin was an extremely filial person. If someone offended Mrs. Martin, he would definitely be annoyed.
Danner looked at Mrs. Martin and angrily said, “She’s not my grandma!”
She didn’t have such a partial grandma.
This statement was like poking a hornet’s nest. Infuriated, Mrs. Martin said, “A waste of money and no manners whatsoever! How dare you talk back to your elders!”
Benjamin Martin looked at Danner and said sternly, “Danner, apologize to grandma right now!”
Once grandma was mentioned, even dad changed.
Danner felt extremely wronged and cried with broken breaths.
Benjamin Martin hated it when children cried. He said sternly, “Don’t cry!”
The more he scolded, the harder Danner cried.
Benjamin Martin pressed his temples, his head aching, “Shut up, did you hear me!”
After all, daughters are not as good as sons; little girls just love to cry.
As a mother, Kay Hutchinson felt heartache for her child and immediately got up to comfort Danner.
“Kay, don’t bother with her. Get back to bed and rest. You’ll have more milk if you’re well-rested!” Mrs. Martin helped Kay back to bed, “If she likes crying, let her cry her fill. I’ve lived so many years, and I’ve never seen a child crying to death!”
She couldn’t let her great-grandson go hungry because of this one.
Kay felt helpless, “Mom, Danner is still young ”
“How young? She’s already six! Back in our day, we could herd cattle and cook at six,” Mrs. Martin forcibly pulled Danner out, “You like to cry, right? Then cry all you want today! I don’t believe I can’t fix you, little girl!”
“Mommy, save me!”
Kay furrowed her brows slightly.
Benjamin Martin reassured her, “It’s fine. My sisters all went through the same thing when they were little. Don’t worry.”
Since Benjamin Martin had said so, Kay could only let it go.
Chloe Martin continued, “Sister-in-law, my brother is right. We’ve all been through it when we were young. My mother may be rough-spoken but reasonable. Have you ever seen a child cry to death?”
Kay nodded and turned to Benjamin Martin, “Benjamin, have you asked Mrs. Xu to clean up the downstairs room? Let Chloe and mom sleep there tonight.”
“I’m not sleeping downstairs!” Mrs. Martin walked in at that moment.
Kay was stunned, “Where will you sleep then?”
“Of course I’ll sleep with my great-grandson!” Mrs. Martin walked to the crib, bent down, and kissed the sleeping baby.
Kay grimaced in disgust. This old woman was so unhygienic!
Yet, she couldn’t say anything.
Mrs. Martin continued, “I’ll make do in this room for tonight.”
Without waiting for Kay to respond, Mrs. Martin looked at her, “Are you unhappy?”
Kay immediately denied it, “No, no, as long as you’re happy, mom!”
Chloe continued, “Brother, have you named my nephew?”
“It’s settled.” Benjamin Martin nodded.
Mrs. Martin immediately asked, “What’s my great-grandson’s name?”
Benjamin Martin smiled and said, “Alexander Martin.”
Mrs. Martin, while illiterate, was familiar with the idiom ‘glorifying ancestors’ and immediately asked, “Does it mean glorifying ancestors?”
“Yes.” Benjamin Martin nodded.
From three generations of poor farmers, the Martins finally rose to prominence in his generation. They had to choose a great name for their son and couldn’t be careless.
After all, he would inherit billions of dollars in the future.
“Brother, you’re amazing!” Chloe looked at Benjamin Martin, “Being educated really makes a difference! My nephew’s name sounds so nice.”
Mrs. Martin nodded in agreement.
Her son was truly incredible.
Not only did he graduate with a master’s degree, but he also had a woman willing to devote herself to him.
Just then, Benjamin Martin’s phone rang.
Seeing the caller, Benjamin Martin made a shushing gesture and answered the phone, “Hello, Claire.”
“Yes, I picked up mom. Don’t worry.”
“Okay, I’ll miss you.”
Watching Benjamin Martin on the phone, Kay’s expression darkened.
Since the day she became involved with Benjamin Martin, she knew he was a married man.
But what about it?
Benjamin Martin’s wife Claire may be beautiful and from a good family, but she belonged to the DINK (Dual Income No Kids) category and was unwilling to have children for Benjamin Martin.
As a man, who wouldn’t want to have a child of their own?
Luckily.
Luckily, she had a son this time.
In the future, Claire’s company and family fortune would belong to her son.
With this thought, a sneer of triumph flashed through Kay’s eyes.
After hanging up, Mrs. Martin asked with an unhappy face, “Was it that hen who can’t lay eggs who called?”
