MIL's weird call

MIL called me this morning and asked me weird things. She started with asking me if I wanted kids, so I said of cos yes lah. Then she went on to tell me that her friend shared with her a 秘诀, and asked me if I'm keen to try. So I replied as long as it does not involve me eating meat, anything lah. Not that I believe in old folklore, but I think I have to appreciate her efforts and concern right? Then she repeated her questions of whether we wanted kids and and that this 秘诀 has worked for 2 of her friends but I will have to make some "sacrifice". Smelling something "fishy", I repeated that as long as it does not involve me eating meat, I can go along with it. So finally she said well, then don't say lah, cos it is eating something not vegetarian. Putting down the phone, I was wondering to myself if she knows that we only started family planning like last month. Is she wondering how come we are taking so long, as in married for a year already, still nothing? Still, I know she called me out of good intentions and wanted to share good stuff with me. I just hope these things don't get too "stressful" for me and I sure hope she is not banging her hopes on me for a grandson.
