BXBX NOVEL Chapter 136 - 137: Trying on Clothes (1)
“Mom.” Before Qin Zhiyou could say anything, Lu Weixi’s temples were throbbing, making it hard for her to restrain herself.
Upon hearing her call, something jolted Yang Mogui’s memory, and she turned to leave, “Look at my memory, I would have forgotten if you hadn’t reminded me.”
Just when Lu Weixi thought she had finally departed, Yang Mogui returned swiftly. This time she was accompanied by Aunt Hao, who was holding a tray with a bowl of dark medicine.
At a glance, Lu Weixi knew what the medicine was and was too stunned for words. Yang Mogui calmly said, “I had this body-toning medicine prescribed for you at the hospital today, and asked someone to prepare it for you. Once your health is well-regulated, you can give birth to a healthy son sooner.” Embarrassed and uncomfortable, Lu Weixi would not be so easily led by Qin Zhiyou if it were him, to carry out puppet-like actions. However, this person was her elder, and that kind of elder with whom she had less contact, but held a lot of authority. Even in the face of Grandfather Qin, she dared to speak. But facing Yang Mogui, she dared not.
Lu Weixi had no idea what to say and glanced at Qin Zhiyou for help. Qin Zhiyou, on the other hand, showed no strong reaction and simply said, “Mom, you don’t need to worry so much.”
“How can I not worry? You two have been married for five years and still no kids!” Yang Mogui raised an eyebrow. Previously, she had been too lazy to intervene, but now with Qin Zhigu’s return, who knew what the old man was thinking and what would happen if he asked his son to abdicate his marital position.
“Look at yourselves, buying so many contraceptive pills. If you’d taken a few less, my grandson would’ve been born by now. Now we’ll need to invest another half year in your health care.” Yang Mogui was upset recalling the bottle of medicine she’d found while cleaning in the afternoon, “We’re not an ordinary family. If you have a child, it’s not like you’ll spend a lot of time raising it. Even if you wish to have a world for just the two of you, it’s no problem; worst case scenario, send him to the big house, and I’ll help you watch.”
And then there’s Lu Weixi, it’s not that she looks down on her. When she saw her dating Qin Zhigu, the girl was quite brightly dressed. But after a few years of marriage with Zhiyou, her clothing started to resemble a nun’s. Look at all the clothes in the closet, not a single piece looks good. No wonder her son tends to stray, unwilling to spend the night with her. At their age, it’s up to her as the mother to teach them how to hold on to their husbands, acceptable or not?
It was clear to Lu Weixi that Yang Mogui was looking at her with disdain. It was almost visible on screen. Yang Mogui continued, “Today, I took Weixi shopping, she bought several beautiful outfits, and she’ll wear them for you.” Upon hearing this, Lu Weixi was ready to melt down, on the verge of tears, “Mom…”
Finally, Qin Zhiyou reacted. He had been standing by, and only now did he nod lightly, “Weixi and I will handle our matters appropriately.”
“What is ‘appropriately’? I’m warning you; you better treat her right. Even if you can’t have a child in the next six months, you still need to cultivate your relationship.. Come home every night, understand?”
