Pei Anan was stunned for a second, and then a nameless anger rose.
Who on earth did this?!
Daughter? You mean her? She's been staying indoors all day, so where did the temptation come from?
Pei Anan thought of many gossips in the village, but he couldn't match their names, nor did he have any connection with them, so he had no clue.
But the only thing that is certain is that this must not be seen by Pei's father and mother, who have high blood pressure risks, otherwise they will definitely faint from anger.
By the time she was busy she couldn't help, and two more people fainted. What would she do as a pregnant woman?
But who hates her so much?
Pei Anan sat down like a headless fly for a moment, his eyes a little confused.
Li Jing'er, who was not far away, snorted coldly. Seeing Pei An'an's pale smile when he left, she happily withdrew her hand and returned to the Lu family.
Mother Lu looked confused and slightly angry. "Where have you been? Why haven't you been here all afternoon? What if Zhicheng comes back and doesn't see you? And you don't care about Xiaobao anymore?"
"How can you be a mother and still need your grandson to be taken care of by your mother-in-law?"
Li Jing'er rolled her eyes and said, "I'm going to do something serious. Can you please stop controlling me so strictly every day?"
"You're not my real mother."
The last sentence was muttered quietly, but it was still heard by the sharp-eared Lu Ma.
She stood up suddenly: "What, you said I'm not your biological mother? I am your mother-in-law, not your biological mother but better than your biological mother. From now on, you will only be filial to me, not your biological mother!"
Li Jing'er was also a little unhappy. What did she mean by it had nothing to do with her biological mother? What kind of words were those?
"You didn't give birth to me. When I'm happy, I call you mom. When I'm unhappy, I call you grandma. Do you think you'd be angry?"
"Come on, hit me! If you dare to hit me, I'll complain to Zhicheng!"
Now Lu Zhicheng loves and pampers her the most. She is afraid that she will divorce him accidentally. If Lu's mother hits her, Lu Zhicheng may really help Li Jing'er.
Lu Ma paused her raised hand, and the next second, Lu Zhicheng opened the door and came back.
He rubbed his temples irritably.
"Why do you guys quarrel every day? Don't you know I'm very tired from work every day?"
Li Jing'er complained: "Zhicheng, your mother is being unreasonable, please find some justice!"
Lu Ma retorted: "I didn't, Zhicheng. Your wife doesn't even want to call me mom. Listen to what I'm saying!"
Li Jing'er was dumbfounded. "What? I never said that. You're twisting right and wrong. If I hadn't recorded what I just said, Zhicheng would have known the truth long ago. Do you think you can just talk nonsense here?"
Mother Lu was so angry that she almost exploded: "You, what's your attitude? I'm your mother-in-law!"
Lu Zhicheng threw his bag down and said, "Alright, what are you guys arguing about? I'm already very tired, and I have to deal with such a small matter when I get home. Can't you guys be a little understanding?"
Li Jing'er felt a little guilty: "Zhicheng, I'm sorry for making you worry."
Lu Zhicheng rubbed his brows and said, "Jing'er, Mom is old, can't you give in to her? She already has a child, what else do you want to do? Haven't I been good enough to you these days?"
Li Jing'er's eyes widened: "Zhicheng, how could you say that to me..."
Lu Ma was immediately elated: "See, my biological mother is still closer. You are just a daughter-in-law after all. What qualifications do you have to show off in front of me? Even if you have a child, it's still the Lu family's blood!"
Li Jing'er couldn't believe that the Lu Zhicheng in front of her was the same person who had been obedient to her in the past few days, but she could only blame it on the fact that Lu Zhicheng was too tired these days.
She stepped forward softly and said, "Zhicheng, I'm sorry. I was wrong. I know you are very tired from work. I shouldn't have quarreled with Mom."
Lu Zhicheng breathed a sigh of relief and said to Lu Ma: "Mom, you should be less angry. You are old, and this is not good for you."
Lu Ma snorted, "It's because the wife you married never listens to me."
Seeing that Lu Zhicheng looked tired, she quickly went over to him, poured him a glass of water, and applied a hot towel. Then she said to Li Jing'er in a bossy manner, "Jing'er, go get Zhicheng some water to wash his feet. He just came back from work and must be very tired."
Li Jing'er was unwilling: "I still have to take care of the children. Besides, the foot washing water is so strong, I don't want to go."
Lu Zhicheng rubbed his brows and closed his eyes, looking sleepy and tired: "Jing'er, be good, I'm really tired."
Li Jing'er glanced at Lu Zhicheng, then reluctantly went to pour water.
When Li Jing'er came back, she had to help Lu Zhicheng soak his feet. Lu Zhicheng sighed and asked, "Jing'er, by the way, have you quit your job?"
Li Jing'er suddenly felt guilty.
Seeing that Li Jing'er didn't reply for a long time, Lu Zhicheng frowned and said, "Jing'er, are you not going to listen to me? I work hard for this family. Do you want me to be criticized by others outside because they say my wife is still working in a bar?"
Li Jing'er finally replied, "That's not the case, Zhicheng. I tried very hard to talk to the manager, but if I leave rashly, it will be hard for the bar to recruit new people. So, they temporarily transferred me to a half-day shift. It's better than before, isn't it?"
She didn't dare say that her salary would be reduced by one third. If she did, Lu Zhicheng would definitely ask her to resign immediately.
