"It's perfect for nourishing the skin, give me a bowl too," Ning Fengmian said.
Jones brought over the bowl and spoon again, ladled soup for Ning Fengmian, and placed it in front of her: "Please enjoy your meal, Madam."
Ning Fengmian nodded, signaling Jones to step down.
As Jones left, she glanced at Ning Qiluo, who kept giving her meaningful looks, signaling her to tell Jiang Yingchi that her mother had arrived. Jones understood and nodded.
"What's wrong with your eyes?" Ning Fengmian asked, noticing Ning Qiluo blinking.
Ning Qiluo exclaimed, "I... I got an eyelash in my eye."
Which eye?
"Left eye."
"Then don't blink, Mommy will blow on it for you and see if you can blow it out."
Then he cupped Ning Qiluo's head, carefully placed his fingertips close to her left eyelid, pried it open, gently blew on it, and asked, "Are you feeling better?"
Ning Qiluo said, "Okay."
There was never any; she lied.
Ning Fengmian then removed his hand, but stared at Ning Qiluo for a few more moments and said, "My dear daughter, you haven't been controlling your diet lately, and you've gained weight again."
Ning Qilu could only laugh awkwardly: "Oh, really? Jones has recently learned a lot about making soup. She makes it every day, and I drink it every day. I guess I've gained weight without even realizing it..."
The time for lying without blushing is about right now.
Lying is never a good thing.
I really feel guilty.
"Drinking stewed soup is good, but you can't drink it every day, my dear. It will cause you to have too much nutrition, which is not good for your health." Ms. Ning Fengmian pays great attention to health preservation.
Feeling very guilty, Ning Qiluo suddenly stammered when she spoke again, "I know, but Mom, Mom, Mom, why, why did you suddenly come to Beicheng?"
They didn't even notify her in advance.
"A mother is a mother. What do you mean by 'mother, mother'? I've raised you for nothing, my little darling. You can't even call me 'mother'."
Ning Fengmian snorted and picked up a spoon to take a sip of the pig's feet soup. "Mom comes when she misses you, but you never come back to be with me. Sometimes I still think it was the right thing to do to stop you two from being together. Look, when you're with him, you forget about your old mother."
"No, not at all," Ning Qiluo said.
"If you don't have a sweet tongue, Mom won't believe you."
The pig's trotters were stewed for a long time, and it felt like the tendons had melted into the soup. The soup base was very thick and had the fresh aroma of peanuts. It was a very delicious soup.
The main problem was that my mother's arrival was too sudden.
Ning Qiluo was completely unprepared.
Normally, this wouldn't be a problem, but it's different now—she's pregnant!
The crucial point is that the person who least wants her to be pregnant is her mother. Therefore, Ning Qiluo naturally has to be careful not to let her mother find out. What if her mother takes her to have an abortion?
She must protect her and Jiang Yingchi's first child.
At this moment, Jiang Yingchi arrived.
Upon meeting Qi's mother, they exchanged polite greetings, and then she stayed by Ning Qiluo's side, peeling the walnuts that Jones had brought over.
With Jiang Yingchi around, Ning Qiluo was no longer afraid of revealing her weaknesses.
During dinner, all the meals were focused on nutrition, and although there were some ordinary dishes, Ning Fengmian still noticed something was wrong.
Ning Qiluo knew it! She had specifically told Jiang Yingchi to change the dishes tonight, and her mother, being such a shrewd person, would definitely notice.
But Jiang Yingchi reassured her, saying he had his own plan.
Ning Qiluo thought it was a response.
But what I didn't expect was a showdown.
Yes, it's time to lay our cards on the table.
Jiang Yingchi personally confessed to Qi's mother that she was pregnant...
