" If that"s how you think then it"s great," said Xu Jia with a smile as she swooped lower to Ji Shan"s eye level. " Because she is the one whose position you are sitting in, with her returning you will happily scamper back to your Ju house right?"
Ji Shan paused and every bone in her body stiffened as she looked at Xu Jia who was smiling, as if she could understand exactly what was going on in her head. " I know that you are a good child, you wouldn"t want Wan Wan to be upset right? Then when she returns you will have to return to your house with a smile, don"t make a fuss or it will hurt mother"s aunt."
" Third aunt, why are you saying this, it"s so upsetting——" began Ji Shan though her heart felt like it was on fire, she was still smiling. This was nothing compared to the things that she has to listen to when she was living at her house. Leave with a smile? On what basis! That girl wasn"t even here and she wasn"t the one who was taking care of the Old madam day and night, she was the one who was doing all that! After doing all that, she wasn"t going to budge from this house without taking a good deal of their a.s.sets as her dowry.
Leave she wasn"t going to ever leave! No matter what!
" What"s upsetting is that you stand here, acting like my niece when you aren"t," said Xu Jia, she was raised by her parents to be upright and steady, she didn"t mince her words and hardly lost her temper but that didn"t mean that she couldn"t bring anyone to tears with just a few of her words, she was even more apt in dealing with people than the eldest daughter in law of the Shen family.
Xu Jia raised her hand and tipped Ji Shan"s chin with her forefinger and whispered, " But you aren"t, you will never be and my husband will never accept it either and if my understanding of my brothers in law is correct they won"t either. You can pretend all you want, Ji Shan but I am not as muddleheaded as my mother in law. Even if my niece never steps in this house, I still will not take you as one."
" Because it will bring nothing but dishonour to my sister in law."
And Ji Shan would be lying if she said that these words that Xu Jia said before leaving didn"t crush her heart. Dishonour? She just wanted a happy life that wouldn"t be filled with scheming what was wrong with it?
Now she could only wish that whoever this Wan Wan was, she might as well fall in a ditch and die without anyone knowing, that way she will be the only one who will be the Shen family"s granddaughter.
" Acho!" Su Wan rubbed her nose after she sneezed, sniffing she looked a bit troubled. Did she catch a cold but that was impossible, because of her husbands and uncles who were in their overprotective mode, she couldn"t even touch cold water and wasn"t allowed to drink cold water either. According to her aunt drinking, cold water will bloat her stomach and she would never be able to return to her old figure.
Thus, now she not only couldn"t drink cold water, but she wasn"t even allowed to touch it either.
As soon as she sneezed, Lin Yan who handed his restaurant to Lin Jing to take care of at the moment rushed inside with a warm porridge. "What"s wrong why did you sneeze?"
Su Wan took the porridge from him and somehow managed to stop rolling her eyes at him, she was actually really annoyed with his overprotective behaviour. It was like she just didn"t get pregnant but somehow turned into a gla.s.s doll that will break if he wasn"t around her. " I don"t know, must be because I kicked the bedsheet off in my sleep."
As she expected, Lin Yan"s expression turned sour and just like always he started to lecture her again. " You ..how many times have I told you, you are not alone now, you are with a child and should take care of yourself better. I heard from your aunt that if a pregnant woman gets cold, there is a likely chance that the child"s immune system might get affected, you can"t fall sick in these nine months or else, it will hurt our child,"
" I know, in fact, I have this stored in my head like a second memory," said Su Wan as she finally couldn"t resist herself and rolled her eyes. " I don"t think that you need to react like this though, it was just a sneeze. I don"t think that I will catch a cold just because of a sneeze you see?"
Lin Yan simply muttered as he ignored her. " You wouldn"t even know when a simple sneeze will turn into a cold."
" You—-" fortunately before an argument could break, Shen Junxi rushed in with a crucian carp in his hands. " look, Wan Wan, this crucian carp that I caught for you, is so plump and I bet it will taste delicious. I heard from your aunt that drinking the soup of a crucian carp is beneficial in pregnancy. Let that Yan brat cook it for you."
As he was speaking, he noticed Lin Yan who was sitting on the bed with a porridge bowl in his hand and grinned. " Good thing that you are here, here take this." Throwing the fish that was still fighting for its life at Lin Yan, Shen Junxi walked over and sat next to Su Wan and asked, " How do you feel today? Is my grandniece giving you trouble today as well?"
Su Wan patted her stomach lightly and loving splayed her hand on it. " It"s usually as always. I can"t eat or drink anything without throwing up but I think it"s going to be worth it soon."
" That"s right, with us as parents, our daughter will be the most pretty looking girl in the village," said Lin Yan like Shen Junxi he was looking forward to a daughter as well.
However, as Su Wan felt another wave of nausea wash over her——- she couldn"t help but think that the child might be a son.
