My sister-in-law thought apple snails laid lots of eggs, and that eating them would help her have many children.
So she prepared a whole basin of raw, marinated apple snails.
When I found out, I threw them away and warned her that apple snails were full of parasites. But she was greedy and still ate quite a few.
Afterward, her belly gradually swelled, and something began wriggling beneath her skin.
I took her to the hospital for an examination and learned that the snails' eggs had made themselves at home inside her.
It cost nearly all my savings to get her treated.
Later, when my sister-in-law couldn't conceive, she actually claimed that I had taken her to the hospital to have her baby aborted!
My mother cursed me for ending the Xia family's bloodline and married me off to an old man, where I suffered until I died.
When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the day my sister-in-law ate the apple snails.
Looking at her swelling belly, I chuckled. “Mom, your daughter-in-law is about to give you a precious grandson!”
