Lu Fan naturally understood Wu Hui's words.

I was too frugal when I was young, and now I still find it hard to get used to the feeling of spending money like water.

"Mom, look, you're here again. It's time for you to enjoy your retirement."

Seeing this, Lu Fan smiled and sat down next to Wu Hui.

Wu Hui sighed softly and said:

"I'm still a long way from enjoying my retirement. I'll be grateful if you two little devils don't keep causing me any more trouble."

Parents' greatest wish is for their children to be happy, and Wu Hui is no exception.

Lu Xi, who was standing to the side, immediately joined in when she saw Wu Hui doing this.

He jumped onto the sofa and threw himself into Wu Hui's arms.

She started to whine, "Mom, my brother meant well. Besides, being closer to my brother and sister-in-law will ensure my safety, and you won't have to worry about me anymore, right?"

"Okay, okay, as long as you two don't cause me any trouble, everything is fine!"

Wu Hui was completely defeated when she saw Lu Xi's feigned sincerity.

She's been the most mischievous of all my children.

As soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Manyue came out of the kitchen carrying a plate of cut fruit.

"Mom, don't worry. I'll take good care of them both."

When Lu Fan saw Jiang Manyue come out carrying a plate, he immediately took it from her.

"Honey, you can leave these things to the housekeeper. You're not ready for any heavy work right now. We can't let our son suffer."

Upon hearing these words, Jiang Manyue, supporting her belly, slowly sat down.

"Don't worry, it's nothing serious. Mom, Xixi, you two should try some of the freshly cut fruit."

Looking at Lu Fan's cautious manner.

Lu Xi looked at Lu Fan with a mischievous smile: "I never expected that my dear brother would have such an understanding side."

Sister-in-law, you are so lucky!

Lu Xi teased her for a while, and Jiang Manyue became a little embarrassed.

"Yueyue, you're only a few months along, aren't you? You have to be very careful and make sure you don't bump or hurt yourself. Otherwise, our Lu family's child will be in danger."

Wu Hui's words suddenly brought the atmosphere to a freezing point.

This naturally made Jiang Manyue feel somewhat uncomfortable.

Since becoming pregnant, Wu Hui has been thinking day and night about when her baby will be born.

There was very little concern for her, although Jiang Manyue could understand the old woman's feelings.

But I'm not one to be bullied; I can tell the difference between a good mother-in-law and a bad one.

So she quickly turned to look at Lu Fan, maintaining a smile on her face, and said:

"Honey, ever since I got pregnant, I don't know what I would have done if you hadn't been there to take care of me."

Lu Fan wasn't stupid; he could naturally smell the gunpowder in the air.

"Honey, this is what I should do. Just like Mom said, you should focus on your pregnancy now. When the time comes, Mom will be happy to hold her grandson."

Lu Fan's words instantly calmed the two of them down.

Seeing this, Wu Hui didn't say anything more.

She didn't want to put her son in the middle and put him in a difficult position.

Seeing the awkward situation, Lu Xi could only feign a yawn.

"I'm so sleepy, it's getting late, everyone should go to sleep."

Wu Hui didn't say anything, and got up and walked towards her room.

"Mom, you should get some rest!"

After saying that, Lu Fan helped Jiang Manyue up and prepared to go back to her room to rest.

To everyone's surprise, Jiang Manyue dodged it and walked away.

Lu Xi sighed, realizing that a storm was just beginning.

Lu Fan was naturally helpless, and Lu Xi walked to his side.

He sighed and said, "Brother, you should go back and talk to your wife, and try not to make her angry."

"Of course I know that. You'd better supervise the work these next few days. All the renovation work will be done by you."

Lu Fan rolled his eyes, but Lu Xi was overjoyed and made a victory sign.

"Don't worry about these small things, just leave them to me. I guarantee you'll be amazed by the results when they're ready. Okay, I'm sleepy, goodnight."

After saying that, he swaggered into his room.

Inside the room, Jiang Manyue was holding a book on childcare, flipping through the pages randomly.

Thinking about what Wu Hui had just said, he was furious.

It's not that she's being overly sensitive, it's just that she's said this more than once or twice.

On the surface, it was to tell her to take care of her health, but in reality, it concerned her family members.

"Knock knock knock..."

A knock came at the door, pulling Jiang Manyue back to her senses.

She knew it was Lu Fan who had returned, but she was still angry and didn't want to talk to him.

The door opened slightly, and Lu Fan slowly walked in. Jiang Manyue turned her back upon seeing this.

Lu Fan could tell that Jiang Manyue was angry, so he climbed onto the bed and hugged her from behind.

He gently comforted her, "What's wrong, honey? Are you still upset about what Mom said?"

Although Jiang Manyue was angry, she didn't want to lose her temper.

She could only calm herself down and say, "What Mom said makes a lot of sense, but how can she do this? Has she ever cared about me, her daughter-in-law? Her heart and eyes are only for her precious grandson."

Lu Fan naturally understood that he, too, was somewhat displeased with it.

But he couldn't say anything to his own mother.

Jiang Manyue was also puzzled. Since becoming pregnant, Wu Hui hadn't taken care of her daily life much.

Even making soup is a rare occurrence.

If we're talking about other mothers-in-law, when their daughters-in-law are pregnant, they'll definitely be busy taking care of them.

But Wu Hui is different; you can't see her anywhere all day.

Jiang Manyue was naturally unhappy, and Lu Fan understood this perfectly well.

But on one side is his wife, and on the other is his mother.

Since we can't get along harmoniously, we can only try to find a balance.

"Honey, listen to me. You know Mom has worked hard all her life, and her health isn't good. Leave the taking care of you to me."

Lu Fan's words of comfort made Jiang Manyue feel a little better.

I didn't take it too seriously, but it still made me uncomfortable to talk about it.

She knew that Lu Fan wanted to be a good son and a good husband.

"Then I'll just focus on my pregnancy, and your mom won't have anything to say then."

Jiang Manyue didn't want to dwell on it too much, pouting to show that she didn't care.

Lu Fan breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that Jiang Manyue had calmed down, and turned Jiang Manyue around.

He hugged her affectionately and said, "My wife is so perceptive. I'll talk to Mom about it properly when I have time."

"If I hadn't been so perceptive, you would probably have been caught in the middle of us. Thank you, my husband."

Indeed, Jiang Manyue didn't want to dwell on these things; it wasn't a big deal.

It's just that it's during pregnancy and the pregnant woman is more sensitive.

If it weren't for Lu Fan's meticulous care, she probably wouldn't have made it to today.

"Silly wife, do we need to be so polite between us? Alright, go to sleep."

After Lu Fan finished speaking, he put his arm around Jiang Manyue and prepared to go to sleep.
