Chapter 109: Money Worship and the Wheelchair Boss 25
The young master raised his clasped palms high, almost touching them to Cha Jiu's face.
He opened his palm, and a ferocious green grasshopper flew towards Cha Jiu.
The young master raised the corner of his lips into an imperceptible smile.
But the screaming scene he imagined did not happen.
Cha Jiu was calm and quick in grabbing the grasshopper.
The next second, she chuckled, unhooked the young master's collar, and put the grasshopper in.
“Ah—wow—”
A scream followed by a burst of crying.
The noise in the living room startled the mother and son who were still talking in the study.
Jiang Tingxu was worried that something had happened to Cha Jiu, so he hurried downstairs to check.
Uncle Chen had already helped the young master take the grasshopper out of his clothes, but his delicate skin had been bitten in several places and was red and swollen.
The young master threw himself into Madam Jiang's arms, crying, "My aunt threw the grasshopper into my clothes..."
Uncle Chen quickly explained the whole story.
Old Madam Jiang didn't like Cha Jiu in the first place, and now she was even more angry, but she couldn't be angry with a pregnant woman.
She suppressed her complaints and tried to speak to Cha Jiu in a calm tone: "Qing Huan, the child likes you, so he gave you his favorite gift. He is not sensible, so don't take it too seriously."
Jiang Nan had been with old lady Jiang since he was a little over one year old. He was sweet-spoken and obedient, and was very much loved by her.
Jiang Nan also sobbed and apologized, looking pitiful: "I'm sorry, little auntie, I like you too much, so..."
Cha Jiu chuckled: "He used a grasshopper to scare me. This is not because he is ignorant, but because he has bad intentions."
Old Madam Jiang had never been talked back to like this by a younger generation before, and her face looked very unhappy.
Jiang Tingxu looked Cha Jiu up and down nervously, and only relaxed a little after making sure that she was safe.
When he turned his gaze to Jiang Nan, it suddenly became as cold as a pond.
Jiang Nanxia subconsciously hid behind Madam Jiang.
The other children also stood obediently in the corner, not daring to make a sound.
The stalemate lasted for a while, and Jiang Tingxu finally spoke.
"Mother, I know you are lonely during your illness and want to be around more people. But choosing a person is the same as choosing a pet. You need to choose someone who is smart, but not too smart. It is better to choose someone who is gentle, well-behaved, and has no ulterior motives."
Madam Jiang frowned: "What do you mean?"
Jiang Tingxu took the live grasshopper from Uncle Chen's hand and placed it in front of Jiang Nan: "Eat it."
Don't mention Jiang Nan and Old Lady Jiang.
Cha Jiu was also stunned.
Jiang Nan stared at the green grasshopper with bulging eyes and swallowed hard.
Madam Jiang wanted to say something, but Jiang Tingxu said, "If you don't eat, you will be sent back to your parents today. You know, no one can change my decision, and it's useless for the old lady to plead for you."
Jiang Nan didn't want to go home because his biological parents were from the lowest branch of the Jiang family and had no future at all.
He wanted to stay with Madam Jiang.
He wanted...the chance to inherit the Chiang family.
Even if it's very slim.
So he gritted his teeth and put the live grasshopper into his mouth.
He could even feel the bitter pulp that flowed out as his teeth bit into the grasshopper's abdomen.
“Tsk——”
Jiang Nan held onto a pillar and vomited continuously.
Mrs. Jiang was also stunned.
She used to think Jiang Nan was an ordinary, good boy.
But today she saw the ambitious side of this child.
After tasting this layer, her closeness to Jiang Nan diminished a lot.
Jiang Tingxu said in disgust: "Okay, get out and vomit, don't dirty my place."
It would be bad if Chajiu also suffered from morning sickness.
Recently, Dr. Jiang examined Cha Jiu and said that she ate well and slept well, and was a rare pregnant woman who did not suffer from morning sickness.
This point must be maintained well.
Mingcheng received Jiang Tingxu's signal, strode over, picked up Jiang Nan and threw him out.
Old Madam Jiang was no longer in a good mood. She gave Cha Jiu some instructions on how to take care of the pregnancy and then left.
But she still had some doubts in her heart.
When they returned to the courtyard, Jiang Nan wanted to go forward to help her, but she dodged him.
Jiang Tingxu carefully observed Cha Jiu's condition and found that she showed no signs of vomiting, so he felt relieved.
Cha Jiu threw herself into his arms, raised her head and blinked her eyes: "I thought you were going to help your mother scold me for bullying children."
Jiang Tingxu rubbed her head and said, "Why is it that she protects her child? I will naturally protect my child."
Cha Jiu was a little curious: "Your relationship as mother and son is not close at all."
Jiang Tingxu smiled bitterly.
The mother-son relationship between him and Madam Jiang was actually not very deep.
His parents had a typical business marriage, without any affection.
When Mrs. Jiang gave birth to Jiang Tingxu, she felt as if she had completed a mission in life. She breathed a sigh of relief and separated from her husband.
Jiang Tingxu learned from his strict father how to be a good heir since he was a child, and rarely saw his mother.
Even if she did meet him, Mrs. Jiang would just ask some common questions and show her polite concern.
She prefers lively and cute children, like Jiang Nan.
Instead of being like him, lifeless and mature beyond his years.
"In my mother's eyes, I am first the heir of the Chiang family, and only secondarily her son."
A son who is not very likable.
Jiang Tingxu's tone was very calm, as if he was talking about someone else.
Cha Jiu felt very distressed after hearing this. She got up from his arms and put his head on her shoulders.
Uncle Chen and Mingcheng dispersed as if nothing had happened, leaving the two of them some space to be alone.
"In my heart, you are first my lover, secondly the father of my children, and finally the person in charge of the Jiang family in everyone's eyes."
Cha Jiu lowered her head and rubbed him, messing up his combed hair and causing a few strands to fall off.
Jiang Tingxu chuckled softly, put his big hand on her lower back, and said submissively: "Okay, I am your lover."
Cha Jiu: “Hmm.”
“Then I can…exercise my rights as a lover”
Cha Jiu: “Hmm.”
A deep kiss fell.
…
Chajiu had an easy pregnancy and hardly suffered any hardship during the pregnancy.
Jiang Tingxu was worried that she would have cramps in her legs and feet at night, so he learned massage techniques, but he never used them.
Instead, he felt more and more pain in his own legs and feet.
After Cha Jiu secretly gave him repair drugs for several months, combined with special massage methods, Jiang Tingxu's chances of leg recovery have greatly increased.
He underwent another repair surgery and anxiously awaited the results.
This time, what he waited for was no longer disappointment.
The operation was successful.
The subsequent rehabilitation process was extremely painful. After Jiang Tingxu finished one round, he was already sweating all over, and he looked as if he had just been pulled out of the water.
It hurts so much.
But when he thought of Cha Jiu and the child, Jiang Tingxu gritted his teeth and persevered.
By the time Cha Jiu was due to give birth, Jiang Tingxu was finally able to stand up again and walk without any external assistance.
But the distance I can walk is not far enough, so I have to sit down and rest after walking for a while.
Cha Jiu wiped the sweat off his forehead with a handkerchief and kissed him: "You are already great."
When Jiang Tingxu let his hair down, he looked gentler, not as sharp as usual.
With a smile in his eyes, he gently stroked Cha Jiu's bulging belly: "I really hope that when he turns one year old, I can hold him and do the "Zhuazhou" ceremony."
The little guy under the belly seemed to hear his father calling, and kicked his big hand covering his belly with his little feet.
Jiang Tingxu was a little surprised.
He leaned close to Cha Jiu's belly and asked softly, "Do you understand what your mother and I are saying?"
Another small movement.
Jiang Tingxu found it amazing: "Then do you know that when you were born, your mother had a hard time carrying you."
After eating well, drinking well and sleeping well, Chajiu looked up at the sky, speechless.
The young man punched Jiang Tingxu in the palm.
Jiang Tingxu laughed: "If you want to be born, choose a good weather, don't choose a day with thunder and lightning, it will scare you and your mother, understand?"
He turned his head and looked out the window at the sunny day, and sighed: "Today's weather is very good."
Cha Jiu wanted to respond, but his face suddenly froze.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Tingxu turned around to look at her and became nervous in an instant.
"I think... I'm about to give birth."
