Chapter 48 Explosion
Just as the family was celebrating little Wen Jing's birthday, an unexpected guest came to visit.
It was Chen Xueying who knocked on the door, and Meng Ruoxi went to open it.
Seeing that she had a bruised face but still smiled brilliantly, her white teeth sparkled brightly under the dazzling sunlight, surprise could not help but flash across her eyes.
He had a fierce battle with the Lu family yesterday, and today he came back to me with full health. His mentality is really good.
She just didn't know why he was looking for her, so she planned to wait and see.
The vicious female supporting role is like an iceberg beauty, with a cold attitude, but Chen Xueyingsi is not affected by her attitude at all.
As the saying goes, don't hit someone who smiles at you, so she greeted him with a smile.
"Ruoxi, good morning. I have thought of a good way to make money. As a good friend, I must help you get rich. You only need to provide the starting capital, and we will split the money we make 50-50. How do you think?"
Not very good, Meng Ruoxi refused, and advised her seriously, saying some words that made her feel sore.
"Speculating is illegal. People are stronger if they keep their feet on the ground. As long as they work hard and earn work points, their lives will get better and better. Besides, I am not the head of the family, nor do I have power, so I am powerless to help."
Ever since Meng Ruoxi opened her mouth, Chen Xueying's mouth corners have been twitching.
It's easy to talk without any pain in the waist. How can you say that you are lazy and don't do any work, but you encourage others to work hard?
You lie so easily. Are you not in charge? You can fool ghosts but you can't fool yourself!
The betrothal gift from the Shi family was as much as 500 yuan. During the two years, I lived and ate at the Shi family, so I definitely didn't spend all the money.
Besides, the villain was very nice to her and must have given her a lot of money.
I really don't know how big a hole the author has in his brain. He has an extreme preference for the vicious female supporting role. All the good things are hers, and all the bad things are the heroine's. It makes people's breasts feel blocked.
Looking into her unclear eyes, Meng Ruoxi smiled slightly, "It's almost late for work, you should go to work quickly, otherwise your work points will be deducted."
Not only did she not get the expected support, but she was also driven away. Chen Xueying's face was twisted in an uncontrollable way.
You are such a vicious female supporting role! You really deserve your vicious reputation!
Having been spoiled since childhood, she couldn't stand this humiliation. She looked at the vicious female supporting role with resentment, turned around and left, her back revealing a burning anger.
Meng Ruoxi found it funny. After closing the door, she walked into the house leisurely.
When Shi Yanjin saw her come in, he asked, "What does she want from you?" He really disliked Chen Xueying.
Meng Ruoxi felt that there was nothing to say, so she shook her head and said, "Nothing."
Little Wen Jing took the toy and looked for his mother, "Mom, Mom."
Meng Ruoxi nodded, and little Wen Jing threw himself into her arms, looked up at her dependently, and reached out for a hug.
Looking at the child's round little body, Meng Ruoxi reached out his hand hesitantly.
It felt heavy in my hand at first, and after a while, my hand started to feel sore and weak, so I put it down.
Shi Yanjin felt sorry for his wife, and waved to his son who was still acting coquettishly, "Come here, daddy will hold you."
Little Wen Jing ignored him and still insisted on being held by his mother.
Her body was swaying back and forth, and the noise in her ears was non-stop. Unable to bear it any longer, Meng Ruoxi pushed him away, saying in a gentle tone, "Be good, go to your daddy."
Little Wen Jing looked at her with a wronged face, pouted his lips, and was ready to cry.
Seeing him like this, Meng Ruoxi put her hand on her forehead and scolded, "Shut up!"
Li Taohua couldn't bear to see this, and felt sorry for her grandson who had to meet a mother who didn't love her child, so she couldn't help but say, "Ruoxi, don't be so fierce, the child just wants you to hug him, look, he's about to cry, hurry up and hug him and comfort him."
Meng Ruoxi didn't want to spoil the good times, but Li Taohua's words made her angry again. Her brows were cold and she spoke rudely, "Mom, he's about to stop crying, don't help him."
The words were so harsh that Li Taohua's eyes suddenly turned red and her voice trembled, "You said I was helping the tyrant?"
I just felt sorry for my child, how could I be aiding and abetting the evil?
Besides, the child is not a heinous criminal, so how can a mother say that?
Meng Ruoxi looked away, not wanting to speak, her expression becoming even colder.
Seeing that things were not going well, Shi Yanjin quickly hugged his son and admitted his mistake, "Xixi, don't be angry, it's my fault for not teaching the child well."
Then she comforted Li Taohua, "Mom, the child is indeed not well. Xixi didn't mean to target you. Don't worry."
Li Taohua wiped away her tears, feeling sad and upset.
I was open with my heart to her, but she said this about herself.
"What do you mean she's not targeting me? She's saying I'm helping the evil, not spoiling my own child, and treating him coldly all day long. I'm not a stepmother, but I'm worse than one."
Shi Yanjin had a headache, "Mom, what's the use of stepmother and biological mother? It's not good for the child to hear that. Xixi is straightforward and said something in anger. You are a prime minister and you can hold your head high. Don't take her angry words seriously."
Li Taohua couldn't listen. Her mind was filled with her daughter-in-law's words "aiding and abetting the evil", and she felt very disappointed.
"You just make excuses for her."
Shi Lujing, who had been silent the whole time, spoke up, "Ruoxi, even if your mother did something wrong, you can't say that about her. Elders should be respected. You are going too far."
Shi Yanjin's heart tightened, "Dad, this is a misunderstanding. There is no need to make a fuss. It's true that mom loves her child, but Xixi didn't mean any harm. It's all my fault for spoiling the child. I will discipline the child well in the future and will never let what happened today happen again."
She lowered her head and scolded her son, "You little bastard, can you behave yourself? Look how mad you made me. Apologize to me."
He actually put all the responsibility on his one-year-old son.
Little Wen Jing was confused and pointed at his grandmother and called out in a vague voice, "No, baby, be good."
As if she had finally found an outlet for her anger, Li Taohua hugged her grandson and started crying, "My dear grandson, your mom is such a piece of shit."
Little Wen Jing didn't know what happened. He subconsciously raised his eyebrows and shouted angrily, "Good boy, good mother."
Li Taohua cried even harder and hugged him tightly, "Our Wen Jing is so well behaved, but your mother is just biting Lu Dongbing like a dog, and she doesn't know how to be kind."
She cried non-stop. At first, little Wen Jing could still speak, but gradually, he also started howling. The crying of the old and the young was so loud that it hurt people's eardrums.
When things got serious, Lu Jing became more serious. He reached out to his wife and grandson and tried to comfort them.
Shi Yanjin talked a lot, but the old man and the child were still crying and ignored him.
Meng Ruoxi watched coldly.
This was the first time she had seen a grandmother leading her grandchildren in crying. As for what Li Taohua said to her, she was not angry at all.
Maybe she was right, and she was just a bitch, not knowing how to appreciate good intentions.
But having one child is so exhausting. If the baby in her belly continues to be spoiled like this, she will be crippled if not dead.
After a long time, the crying stopped.
After crying out her frustration, Li Taohua felt better.
Little Wen Jing followed suit and started crying. After he finished crying, he sat on the ground and played with his toys heartlessly.
Shi Yanjin's tense heart relaxed. Sandwiched between his wife and mother, he felt suffocated for the first time.
He turned around and saw that his wife still had a cold face. He relaxed instantly and moved closer to her, trying to comfort her with eager eyes, "Don't be angry. It's all my fault. I admit my mistake. You are still pregnant. Getting angry is not good for your health."
Meng Ruoxi pulled away his hand that was tightly holding hers and looked at him coldly.
"You planted the seeds, and I have to bear the consequences. Just because you love your child doesn't mean I should too. I am not cold-blooded now. It's too late to blame you."
Everyone present knew who these words were referring to.
Then he looked at Shi Lujing and said, "Dad, my words were harsh. You can criticize me, but I won't apologize."
When she looked at Li Taohua, she was silent for a moment before she spoke, "Mom, you are really good to me. It's not an exaggeration to say that you are my biological mother. I regard you as my biological mother from the bottom of my heart, so I have no scruples when speaking to you. If you think what I said is unpleasant, I will just say less in the future."
Li Taohua said after a long while, "You treat me as your own mother, and I treat you as my own daughter, but you really don't care about the children, you are cold and fierce, and it hurts my heart to see you like that."
After all the talk, we are back to the issue of children. I can only say that she really loves her grandson.
Shi Yanjin couldn't help but hold his forehead.
Mom, you poked my lungs.
Meng Ruoxi, who was already cold and aloof, became even colder.
She knew she was not a good mother, but after being blamed so many times, her heart began to become numb and even disgusted. The child became the last straw that broke the camel's back.
The door slammed shut, and the room fell into silence.
As soon as Meng Ruoxi left, Shi Yanjin couldn't sit still and hurriedly followed her back to her room.
He opened and closed the door, and began to behave himself modestly, coaxing his wife carefully.
