Chapter 363 I Only Recognize This Daughter-in-law
The news of Ji Siman's pregnancy soon spread back to the Ji family.
The couple's engagement ceremony, originally scheduled for next week, was moved forward by three days.
Tan Qinghuan has not been discharged from the hospital yet, and Zhong Shaoqing is taking care of her in the hospital.
I was not surprised to hear the news that Zhong Bochuan was engaged.
He didn't want to go, but Tan Qinghuan considered that he was the eldest son of the Zhong family, so he had to go.
Tan Mingzhu stayed to take care of her daughter.
Zhong Shaoqing stayed in the ward for a long time.
Tan Qinghuan pushed him and said, "Shaoqing, be obedient. You must attend this kind of occasion."
The man sighed and put his arm around her shoulders: "I'll leave later."
Tan Mingzhu pushed the door open and saw the young couple being affectionate with each other, and smiled knowingly.
Zhong Shaoqing blushed: "Mom, please take care of Qinghuan today. I will be back after dinner."
Tan Mingzhu waved her hand: "Okay, go ahead, your wife won't get lost."
The man reluctantly left the ward.
During this period of time together, Tan Mingzhu was very satisfied with her son-in-law.
This made Tan Qinghuan feel a little jealous: "Mom, stop looking. Who is your biological child?"
Tan Mingzhu raised her hand and nodded her head: "You, women's hormone levels drop after giving birth. Shaoqing is worried that you may suffer from postpartum depression."
The confinement nanny next to him also smiled and said, "Yes, the relationship between the eldest young master and the eldest young mistress is really good."
Tan Qinghuan smiled, feeling sweet in her heart.
Zhong Shaoqing did a great job indeed.
During the time she was in the hospital, he stayed by her side almost every step of the way, responding to her every request and complying with her every request.
As a medical student, she naturally understood that hormone levels would drop after childbirth. If the family did not care about the mother during this period, she would be very likely to suffer from postpartum depression.
But these past few days, she felt a little annoyed with Zhong Shaoqing. He was too clingy!
I wish I could hang on her.
Tan Mingzhu glared at her and said, "You are such a nagging girl. Look at the flowers on the windowsill. They are never the same. I later asked Jinmo about it and she said Shaoqing went to the flower shop to buy flowers every morning because he was afraid that you would feel bored staying in the hospital."
Tan Qinghuan stuck out his tongue and couldn't suppress a smile.
As for Zhong Shaoqing, he was indeed too good to her.
Not to mention Zhong's mother, who has been focusing on taking care of her during this period and has lost a lot of weight.
Tan Mingzhu was also very pleased. She made a good choice of son-in-law!

Ji family.
According to the customs of the imperial capital, the engagement ceremony was held at the bride's home.
It's rare for there to be happy events at home, and there have been two recently.
Ji Siman was wearing an off-white embroidered cheongsam with pearls on the cuffs and collar, making her look more gentle.
Only close relatives from the two families were invited to today's engagement ceremony.
Old Mrs. Ji's face was also beaming today as she greeted the guests.
Ji Mingkang never stopped smiling, and glanced at Ji Minghua next to him: "Ah, the difference between people. My daughter married into the Zhong family, and some people's sons were sent to prison because of the Zhong family, and now they have to flatter and say nice things to them."
Ji Minghua ignored his sarcasm.
It's not like she doesn't know who Zhong Bochuan is. It's obvious that they are together because of conflicts of interest.
Zhong Bochuan was dressed in a suit and tie today, but he didn't look very happy.
She kept checking her phone, and a series of red exclamation marks indicated that the other party had deleted her.
Looking at the figure not far away, he felt a little resentful.
It must be Ji Siman who revealed the news of their engagement to Meng Shanshan.
She was helpless abroad, without even any relatives or friends. His heart ached when he thought of her hiding in some corner and crying secretly.
After the simple ceremony, the feast began.
There are only five tables today.
After all the dishes were served, Zhong Bochuan was nowhere to be seen.
Ji Siman looked around, with some guesses in his mind, and his expression became increasingly uglier.
"Grandma, you eat first. I'll go find Bochuan."
She went around to the backyard, and sure enough, the man was on the phone with a gentle look on his face.
"Shanshan, listen to me and I will explain. She and I are only involved in interests. The person I love has always been you."
It was the first time she saw Zhong Bochuan like this.
He couldn't help but clench his fists, feeling a little unwilling.
Why can that bitch Tan Qinghuan easily get Zhong Shaoqing's love?
Last time in the hospital, everyone was talking about how the eldest son of the Zhong family loved the eldest daughter-in-law so deeply that he even came in person to change the maternity pad.
Zhong Bochuan had his back to her and didn't notice her behind him at all. He continued to coax the person on the other end of the phone with a gentle voice.
"Yeah, okay, I'll come to see you in a few days, don't cry..."
Before he finished speaking, Ji Siman couldn't bear it any longer, so he quickly stepped forward and snatched his phone.
Zhong Bochuan was caught off guard and his phone was snatched away and the call was hung up.
"What are you doing?" He frowned and looked at her, puzzled.
"Zhong Bochuan, today is our engagement day, you should at least respect me, right?"
“Give me the phone!”
"No!" She straightened her neck, her eyes red. "I know you have no feelings for me, but don't forget that I'm pregnant with your child. Today is our engagement day. If you call her and the two parents see you, what will they think?"
Zhong Bochuan only felt his temples throbbing.
"You also know that we have no feelings for each other, we are just doing this for the sake of profit, so just stop interfering in my business."
Perhaps it was because of the sensitive nature of the pregnancy, Ji Siman started to shed tears.
"Don't forget, you will be my husband soon! I have been very generous, but you didn't even give me face at the engagement ceremony!"
The man didn't want to talk to her any more and went straight to grab the phone.
During the tug of war, Ji Siman fell backwards, and Zhong Bochuan was only concerned with grabbing his phone.
This scene happened to be seen by Ye Jinmo who came out of the bathroom.
The child will definitely fall if he falls like this.
Before she could get over there, a figure supported Ji Siman.
Chi Yan glared at her son and said, "What are you doing? Bochuan, don't tell me you are still thinking about Meng Shanshan!"
Ji Siman was protected by Chi Yan behind her and cried softly.
Zhong Bochuan explained helplessly: "Mom, you know very well that she and I have no feelings for each other. We got married just for profit. We will get divorced sooner or later!"
As soon as the words fell, a crisp slapping sound was heard.
He couldn't believe it: "Mom, you hit me?"
"I'm telling you, the Zhong family doesn't have the habit of abandoning their wives and children! If you marry Si Man, I will only recognize this as my daughter-in-law. I have tolerated you bringing Meng Shanshan to Country M. From now on, if you contact her again, I will cut off all ties with you!"
"Mom, Shanshan saved you back then!"
"Save? She just called for emergency help. I, Chi Yan, have already repaid her debt. The person who really saved me was the doctor! Look at what you have become because of her. I tell you, you must treat Si Man well. I don't care why you got married. She is pregnant now. If my grandson is gone because of you, I will never forgive you!"
After saying that, Chi Yan pulled Ji Siman away.
Zhong Bochuan closed his eyes, sighed, and chased after him helplessly.
Ye Jinmo walked out slowly from the corner with a serious expression.
Meng Shanshan is released from prison?
