Chapter 173 Move with Us
Shang Ruoting felt extremely satisfied. Although she had traveled to another world, she had two people who truly loved her by her side.
She took the roast duck wrap and took a bite, and almost cried. The taste was the same as the one she had eaten in the roast duck restaurant in Beijing in her previous life. Compared with the roast duck she had eaten in Beijing with Tan Chen a while ago, this was the authentic one.
"Grandma, the roast duck you made is much more delicious than the one we had in the capital last time."
Old Mrs. Shang was also happy at the moment and accidentally let the secret slip while she was talking.
"That's right, this is our family's ancestral craft, how can anyone else make it?"
Shang Ruoting and Tan Chen's eyes fell on Old Lady Shang at the same time. Old Lady Shang also realized that she had said the wrong thing and quickly changed the subject.
"Hehe...eat, eat."
Seeing that Old Lady Shang didn't want to continue talking about this, Shang Ruoting and Tan Chen were also very tactful and didn't ask any more questions.
In order to ease Mrs. Shang's embarrassment, Tan Chen talked about moving.
"Grandma, Ruoting, our new house is almost finished. I want to discuss moving with you."
When Mrs. Shang heard Tan Chen mention moving, she couldn't help feeling a little disappointed. After all, she was used to living with her two children.
Shang Ruoting noticed something was wrong with the old man at a glance.
"Grandma, this time you will move to the new house with us."
Tan Chen also meant this: "Yes, grandma, if you move to the new house with us, it will be convenient for Ruoting and I to take care of you."
Although Mrs. Shang was reluctant to part with them, she still refused.
"No, grandma will stay here. You two can move. We are in the same village and live not far away, so it will be convenient for us to travel back and forth."
Shang Ruoting was unwilling to let the old lady stay here alone. She hugged her arm and said coquettishly, "Grandma, I can't bear to leave you... You have to move with us."
Old Lady Shang tapped her forehead and said, "How old are you? You're still acting like a child!"
"I'm used to being alone, so I won't move with you."
Just when Shang Ruoting wanted to continue persuading her, Tan Chen used a big move.
"Didn't grandma say she would help us take care of the kids? Besides, Ruoting also likes the food you cook, so let's help together! We'll be a family from now on."
In fact, it’s not that Mrs. Shang is unwilling to stay with her granddaughter and grandson-in-law. She’s just a person who thinks a lot as she gets older.
The first thing she considered was her background, and she didn't want to affect the reputation of the young couple because of herself.
Besides, she always thought that her granddaughter was her biological daughter, so there was nothing to say. But Tan Chen was her granddaughter's husband who had nothing to do with her. Even if he was a good man, there was no reason for her to move to her husband's house with her granddaughter.
When Mrs. Shang heard Tan Chen ask her to help take care of the child, her originally firm determination wavered...
She looked at Shang Ruoting's flat belly and asked, "Tingting, are you pregnant?"
Shang Ruoting's face turned red when her grandmother suddenly asked her this.
The scene of her and Tan Chen's lovemaking appeared in her mind.
Tan Chen kissed her gently: "Wife, give me a child?"
She panted slightly, her hands resting on his chest: "Can we have the baby two years later?"
Tan Chen kissed him again: "Why?"
She said she didn't want children because she wanted to wait until she took the college entrance exam and then continue her studies, but she couldn't tell the truth, so she could only make an awkward excuse: "I always feel that we are still young, and it's not too late to have children after we live our lives..."
Tan Chen rubbed her head lovingly: "Okay, I'll listen to my wife."
Shang Ruoting pushed his broad shoulders again: "Then why don't you be more careful..."
Old Mrs. Shang thought that Shang Ruoting was blushing because she was really pregnant.
"Tingting, are you really pregnant?"
Seeing that Old Lady Shang had misunderstood, and that he had used this reason to convince her, Tan Chen explained, "Grandma, as long as I work harder, I'll have a baby soon."
Shang Ruoting smiled at Old Lady Shang, but reached out and pinched Tan Chen's leg.
"Hehe... Grandma, anyway, you have to listen to me this time and move with us."
Old Lady Shang also realized that Tan Chen and Shang Ruoting had invited her sincerely, and it would seem pretentious if she refused again.
"Okay then, I'll move in with you guys. Let's try living together first. If you're not used to it, I'll move back."
Seeing that the old lady finally agreed, Shang Ruoting's smile widened again: "That's great, grandma. From now on, I can eat the delicious food you cook every day."
Old Madam Shang scolded: "You are just greedy..."
Although Shang Ruoting was only accompanied by Tan Chen and Old Lady Shang on her first birthday in another world, she was already very satisfied.
Isn’t that what life is all about?
There is a man who loves you and relatives who care about you...
Shang Ruoting was happy today and ate a little too much. Tan Chen was worried that she would have indigestion, so after dinner he arranged to take her out for a walk.
The two of them held hands and came to the reed marsh. From afar, they could see that the reeds had grown very tall and the sound of frogs croaking could be heard from time to time.
"Do you think we can catch fish at this time?" Shang Ruoting asked, pointing at the reed marsh.
