Chapter 58: A show?

Before Shi Yanjin reached the kitchen, he heard the crying of the twins. His facial expression froze and he walked into the kitchen resolutely.

"Mom, the child is crying, you go check on him, I won't go. Wen Jing said he's hungry, I'll make him some food."

When Li Taohua heard that her grandson was hungry, she became anxious. She patted her head with her hand, looking annoyed.

"Look, I was so busy that I forgot to prepare the meals for Ruoxi and Wen Jing first, and then for others. Can you do it alone? If not, let your sister come in and help you."

Shi Yanjin smiled faintly and shook his head, "No need, I can do it myself."

He is very good at cooking, and he is willing to cook for his wife and children and doesn't want others to interfere.

"Okay, I'll go see the kids." Heartbroken by the crying of the twins, Li Taohua left in a hurry.

Suddenly hearing a child crying, Meng Ruoxi slowly sat up from the bed, got out of bed, walked to the window, opened the window and looked out.

The door of her mother-in-law's room was not closed. She could clearly see her mother-in-law holding a child in one hand and coaxing him. A strange feeling passed through her mind. She slammed the window, turned around and walked back to the bed, her mood a little unstable.

"Mom." Little Wen Jing looked at his mother strangely, not understanding what was wrong with her.

Meng Ruoxi stared at him for a few seconds, suddenly reached out and hugged him, then quickly let go. Her fluctuating heart seemed to be poured with a basin of cold water, and suddenly calmed down. She spoke to the child in a rare gentle voice.

"Wen Jing, Mom is not a good mom, but you have to be a good child with good character and grow up to be a man with clear wind and bright moon and noble bearing."

It was similar to parting instructions, but unfortunately little Wen Jing didn't understand.

I looked at my mother in confusion, not understanding what she meant, and blurted out subconsciously, "Mom, the baby is a good child."

After touching his head, Meng Ruoxi said nothing more. She turned her head and stared at the closed window in a daze.

Little Wen Jing lowered his head, touched his drooping belly with grievance, and cried out in a sobbing voice, "Mom, I'm hungry."

Meng Ruoxi rubbed her brows, her mind drifting back to reality. Her expression faintly revealed the displeasure of being disturbed. "If you're hungry, go out and ask your dad for food. Mommy has nothing to give you here."

She was telling the truth. Like Shi Yanjin, she didn't like snacks, so there would be no snacks in the room. Apart from three meals a day, she never put anything else in her mouth.

After a day of getting along, little Wen Jing became a little braver. He wiped his tears with his hands and complained with sobs, "Mom, no, you can't be mean to the baby."

Sighing, Meng Ruoxi reached out and touched his soft face, and said helplessly, "When did I hurt you?"

She really didn't think she was being mean to the child, and even thought that this was the best attitude she had ever had towards the child. But the child said that she was mean to him, and she was confused and puzzled about this.

Little Wen Jing couldn't stop crying, "My aunt gave the food to my brother, but my mother didn't give it to the baby."

Meng Ruoxi, who originally wanted the child to shut up, was stunned for a moment.

I thought of the twins in my mother-in-law's arms, and I felt powerless.

The words seemed to be spoken to the child, but also to herself, "It's not that mom doesn't give it to me, it's that mom doesn't have it."

The older the children get, the more they will understand what a failed mother they are. They will hate having such a mother and even resent themselves for giving birth to them.

I looked up to stop myself from shedding crocodile tears, trying to get rid of the sudden depression.

My name is Meng Ruoxi. I am an independent person with my own dreams.

The Shi family is just a stepping stone, I won't fall into it.

She tried to tell herself this, and her face became colder and colder.

I ignored the child and lay down, closed my eyes and went to sleep.

"Wow..." Little Wen Jing cried heartbrokenly, and her mother ignored her again.

He reached out to pull his mother, but no matter how hard he pulled, his mother just ignored him.

"Woo woo, mommy, I want a hug."

Little Wen Jing was already hungry, and because of his mother's attitude, he completely broke down. He lay on his mother, crying and shaking all over.

Meng Ruoxi's body also trembled. The wound on her stomach was pressed by the child, and the pain made her face twisted for a moment.

"What's wrong? What is this?" Hearing the crying, Shi Changning pushed the door open and asked.

Meng Ruoxi turned her head and looked at her, "Sister, Wen Jing is hungry, take him out for dinner."

Shi Changning nodded, "Okay." He reached out and wanted to take little Wen Jing away.

Little Wen Jing twisted his body and struggled desperately, holding onto his mother's clothes with both hands and refusing to let go, "Wuwu, no, I want mommy."

Meng Ruoxi was in so much pain that she broke out in cold sweats. The pain in her stomach and lower body made her speechless for a while. She could only point at the child in her body and ask Shi Changning to take the child away quickly.

Having never taken care of a child before, Chang Ning was always busy and flustered. Little Wen Jing struggled desperately, but she really had no idea what to do. She was afraid that if she used too much force, she would hurt the child, so Meng Ruoxi felt pain again and again.

Shi Yanjin hurried over with the food. When he saw this scene, his face turned pale with anger. He quickened his pace, picked up his son and slapped him on his fat buttocks.

"I told you to listen to your mother, but you just won't listen. Mom is still injured, and you want to hurt her to death by pressing down on her with your big head?"

He was really angry with his son this time. He didn't stop beating the child until he cried. He beat him much harder than Meng Ruoxi usually did.

Shi Changning couldn't bear to watch it any longer, so he stopped his brother's hand from hitting him, "What are you doing! The child is still young, you just need to educate him well, why do you hit him?"

Shi Yanjin said with a cold face, "Sister, don't worry about it. Xixi almost died because of him this time, and he is still bothering Xixi now. He won't learn his lesson unless he is beaten."

Little Wen Jing covered his butt and cried loudly, "Wuwu, Daddy is bad, Mommy is bad, Auntie is bad, poor baby."

Shi Changning looked at his nephew in disbelief.

How could I be so bad? I was helping him!

After recovering from the shock, Meng Ruoxi was troubled by Shi Yanjin's insanity. She took a deep breath and said, "Shi Yanjin, put Wen Jing down for me. He's hungry. Give him something to eat."

The child is still young, so she naturally wouldn't bother with him about hurting herself.

As soon as Meng Ruoxi said to put the child down, Shi Yanjin immediately put the child down, "Okay, this beating should teach the child a lesson, don't be angry with the child."

His fists clenched suddenly, and he began to tremble uncontrollably from anger, and at the same time he felt a suffocating sensation coming towards him.

So I just called myself.

When have you ever blamed your child?

The reason I beat the child yesterday was because he ran to the mountain alone. What if something happened?

Just because I hit my child once, I become a nagging woman who beats and blames my child without knowing right or wrong?

Haha, as expected, I shouldn’t care about the child.

This time, she really gave up completely.

Shi Yanjin's original intention was not to make his wife dislike the child, and he really wanted to teach the child a lesson, but he didn't expect to backfire. Seeing his wife's silent and indifferent expression, his heart couldn't help but tremble, and his hands holding the child trembled even more, and it took a while to calm down.

He opened his mouth and explained, "Xixi, that's not what I meant."

Shi Changning looked at his brother and then at his sister-in-law in confusion, not understanding what was going on between them.

It's just teaching children, what's there to explain? It's really strange.

Meng Ruoxi whispered, "I'm a little sleepy, you take the kids to eat, I'll take a nap first."

Shi Yanjin didn't want to listen to her, "I'll let my sister take Wen Jing to dinner, and I'll stay with you."

Meng Ruoxi looked at him dimly, "I'm suddenly not sleepy anymore."

Shi Changning pulled the corner of his lips awkwardly, reached out and tugged at his brother's clothes, winked at him, and spoke.

"Ruoxi asked you to take Wen Jing downstairs for dinner, so just do it. I'm busy and don't have time to help you take care of the child."
