Chapter 39 Why don’t you have a child yet?
In the evening, the men in the family were drinking outside. After talking to her mother and sister-in-law, Chen Qi went to wash up.
I went back to my room and changed into comfortable home clothes. I was combing my hair in front of the mirror in my room when I suddenly heard a knock on the door.
Chen Qi put down the comb and hurried to open the door. It turned out that it was her mother.
"Yue'er, you're not asleep yet."
"No, mother, why don't you rest yet? My sister-in-law and my eldest brother have agreed to let him clean up the dishes tonight, and you can go to bed."
When the mother walked into the room and saw her daughter combing her hair, she picked up the carved comb and slowly combed Chen Qi's black hair, just like when she was a child.
"Today I remembered when our family first came to Baihe Town. You were born not long ago and were as small as a kitten in my arms. I was too busy to take care of you, but you didn't cry. You played with your own hands and feet, and smiled at the shadows of the trees all day long. In the blink of an eye, you have grown into a big girl."
The mother looked at her precious daughter carefully.
Although she was not wearing any makeup, her skin was fair and delicate, like white jade covered by the first snow. Her eyebrows and eyes were lively, and she had a natural smile on her face, making her look like a piece of delicate jade.
"Mother~"
Chen Qi turned around and hugged her, acting coquettishly in her arms, while her mother stroked her daughter's hair with a smile.
"You don't know, I couldn't sleep well in the days before you came back. I kept dreaming that you were wronged in the Xie family, crying alone. My heart was boiling. Now, seeing that you have married such a good husband, he is smart, capable, and caring. The stone in my chest has finally fallen to the ground."
"Well, we are fine, don't worry, mother."
Chen Qi closed her eyes and smelled the familiar scent of her mother, feeling at ease.
"My girl, now that you're married, you're an adult. Let me ask you, why... aren't you pregnant yet?"
Zhang finally got to the point, her tone a little worried - compared with the Shen family, the Xie family was considered a wealthy and powerful family, and she was afraid that her daughter would not be able to gain a foothold there.
"Mother~"
Shen Qi was a little shy.
"We two... are in no rush."
"That being said. I heard that his cousin has been married for many years and still has no children. As for you two, it's already late to get married. If you don't hurry up, I'm really worried."
Chen Qi thought, when she was still single, her mother was always worried about her marriage. Now that she was getting married, she worried about her daughter being wronged. Now that she knew her daughter was not wronged, she hoped she would have a child soon.
As a mother, I can never let go of this feeling.
"Mom, don't worry. Maybe it's not our destiny yet. Let's wait a little longer."
After all, the two of them have tried extra hard to have a child.
"Now that your sister-in-law is pregnant, I have one less thing to worry about. Now I only have you to worry about. I knew you would come to celebrate your birthday today. The other day, your second aunt and I went to Pushan Temple on Nanshan Mountain and asked for a Guanyin statue for you. I heard that the Guanyin statue in Pushan Temple is the most effective for praying for children and ensuring safety."
"mother!"
Chen Qi was a little amused and helpless.
She clearly feels like she is still her parents' youngest daughter, so how could she have the desire to be a mother?
"I'll bring it home to you tomorrow and place it in your room. You can worship the Buddha and light incense every day. This is all about your piety. You see, when I was at home, I worshipped the Buddha every day. Isn't it to bless you children with safety and good fortune?"
Zhang's tone left no room for doubt.
"Also, you've had a summer fever since you were a child. When summer comes, you can't eat or sleep well, and your period won't come for months on end. I know this firsthand. Even though the Xie family runs such a large herbal medicine shop, they don't know how to diagnose and prescribe medicine. When you're in the city, keep an eye out for a good doctor, male or female, to take your pulse and prescribe some medicine. Only after you've taken care of your body can you have children."
"I know, I know."
Chen Qi played with the ends of her mother's hair and responded nonchalantly.
"And what else..."
Zhang continued to talk a lot, and was finally pushed by her daughter back to her room to rest.
Before leaving, she grabbed Chen Qi's hand and gave her repeated instructions before she let go.
Chen Qi said goodbye to her mother and returned to her room. Seeing that Xie Yuduo had not returned yet and the room was empty, she sighed silently.
When she was lying on the bed and about to fall asleep, her husband came back smelling of alcohol.
Chen Qi took a look at him under the light; his sword-like eyebrows and phoenix eyes were hazy with intoxication.
"Humph, drunk again!"
Xie Yuduo sat in front of the bed, grabbed her hand and touched his hot face.
"I'm not drunk. I just... I even washed myself clean. If you don't believe me, smell it."
He took off his coat and exhaled. He was still conscious, but obviously drunk.
Chen Qi stood up and helped him lie down on the small bed. Seeing his long arms and legs stretched out, there was no place for him to sleep.
Chen Qi complained, "This bed is indeed a bit small. There's no room for anyone to sleep on it. I'll ask Dad to buy a bigger one someday."
Xie Yuduo was lying on the bed, his eyes hazy with drunkenness. He stretched out his long arms and said, "Come into my arms, and you can sleep!"
Chen Qicai ignored him and told him to roll inside.
Xie Yuduo really rolled in again and again, barely making some space.
Chen Qi lay down contentedly, but just as she lay down, the huge monster that had just rolled into the corner came up to her shamelessly.
"Xiao Yue'er...please take care of me..."
Chen Qi blushed and her heart beat fast. She struggled slightly, but her hand was squeezed even tighter.
"Um...be gentle..."
"Bah! You're drunk today, so be quiet and don't mess with me... don't..."
After a lot of pulling and tugging, I finally gave him a little sweet treat and coaxed the drunk man into silence.
The two of them had just rested for a while, playing hand in hand, but Chen Qi really didn't feel sleepy.
"Tonight, my mother came to see me."
"Um?"
The man was still a little absent-minded.
"Let's have a baby soon."
"Um!"
The man suddenly perked up, straightened up, and immediately revealed a large area of his naked upper body.
A pair of warm hands held Chen Qi's face solemnly.
"Xiaoyue, listen to me, listen to me."
Shen Qi saw that he was very serious and felt a little nervous.
"You said...what do you want to say?"
"...With the way you just did, we can't create a child."
His tone was extremely serious, and he said such frivolous words, which really made Shen Qi laugh, causing her to not help but hit him.
The two of them quarreled for a while.
With the support of his mother-in-law's order, the man seemed to have received a divine order. He was no longer satisfied with those little sweet treats and kept pestering his wife until half the night.
The small bed began to shake again under the heavy weight.
…
After a satisfying sex, the weathered little bed was almost intact.
"Well... let's get a new bed..."
