Don't play the emotional card to teach your parents
Huo Chengfeng pressed his chest, ignoring the pain in his heart, and looked at Shi Mingzhu and his son.
Shi Mingzhu looked at him and said, "He won't eat even if I feed him. He's not crying because he's hungry. It's because the thunder is too loud and Yangyang is scared."
Huo Chengfeng looked at the only window in the room. It was not closed before he went to bed, so he got up and closed it tightly. There was a loud thunder outside the window and the rain was heavy, hitting the window like firecrackers.
“Ah ...
The children were sobbing.
"I'll coax him." Huo Chengfeng took the baby in his hands with concern, held him in one hand, paced around the room to coax him, and covered Yangyang's ears with the other hand.
"You go to sleep first." He said to Shi Mingzhu.
Shi Mingzhu looked like she was still sleepy, with eyes drooping and sitting on the bed in an ungraceful manner. When she heard his words, she yawned and fell asleep as soon as she lay down.
Huo Chengfeng looked down at his son. His two little hands were clenched tightly, tears were in the corners of his eyes, and he was not sleeping well.
Huo Chengfeng carefully wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes. He hoped that Yangyang would sleep peacefully like the Yangyang he had just seen in his dream.
After the thunder died down, Huo Chengfeng put the child on the bed.
It was a big bed, he slept on the outside, Shi Mingzhu slept on the inside, and the child slept in the middle. Fortunately, Yangyang didn't wake up when I put him down.
After settling Yangyang down, Huo Chengfeng lay down and carefully moved the child to his side.
On the second day, Shi Mingzhu felt her milk was swollen and she woke up early. Then I found the father and son sleeping in the same bed.
She reached for the child.
Hearing the noise, Huo Chengfeng opened his eyes blankly.
"What's wrong?" The man's body reacted faster than his mind. He propped himself up on the bed with his hands and sat up. The thin blanket on his body slipped off, revealing his well-defined abdominal muscles. They were as beautiful as a work of art, causing Shi Mingzhu to take a few more glances.
"My breasts are swollen and it's uncomfortable. Go feed the baby." Shi Mingzhu lowered her head and looked at her son in her arms with a worried look on her face.
Still sleeping, not awake.
"He has slept for a whole night. Isn't he hungry?" Shi Mingzhu held her son's little hand and shook it gently, but he didn't wake up.
"An hour ago, I fed Yangyang milk powder. You didn't wake up at that time and I didn't call you..." Huo Chengfeng also understood. When he was discharged from the hospital, the nurse had reminded him that he should not feed the child while he was asleep, otherwise he would easily choke.
"Then why didn't you call me!" Shi Mingzhu glanced at him and said angrily, "What should I do now?"
“You look like you’re sleeping soundly…” That’s why I didn’t call you.
After a pause, Huo Chengfeng looked at her, his eyes resting on her chest for a few seconds before moving away. In just those few seconds, the tip of her ear turned red, hot and itchy.
Huo Chengfeng touched his ear and prepared himself mentally before asking, "How about I help you?"
As soon as the words came out, Shi Mingzhu understood. The two looked at each other, and Shi Mingzhu felt hot all over. Huo Chengfeng's eyes were too charming and seductive.
She looked down at her son, who was still asleep.
She looked up at him again. Huo Chengfeng understood what he meant instantly. He held his son and put him on the crib. As soon as he put him on the bed, Yangyang moved a little, found a comfortable position, and slept even more soundly. Huo Chengfeng smiled gently.
Facing Shi Mingzhu, Huo Chengfeng became much more nervous.
Shi Mingzhu smiled and warned him, "Don't use too much force."
Huo Chengfeng nodded and lowered his head to bite it.
For a moment, the only sound in the room was the sound of swallowing, sometimes slow and sometimes fast.
Huo Chengfeng just followed his instinct. The juicy peaches were sweet, and the pink and white peach flesh was delicate and crystal clear. The juice burst in his mouth as soon as he bit it, filling his mouth with sweetness. In the end, he just loved it more and more.
Hearing Shi Mingzhu's voice, he lingered on the last bite of the fruit and then stopped with regret.
But his eyes could not move away from the sweet peach, which was still dripping with juice, making him want to swallow it in one gulp.
There are obviously many more.
He looked up at her.
"Help me get a towel." Shi Mingzhu said softly, gently pushing his head away. I still want to eat. What should Yangyang eat after you finish eating? !
"No need, I can do it." Huo Chengfeng supported her and licked the juice off the peach. In the end, he was reluctant to let her go.
He couldn't bear to part with anything.
Shi Mingzhu grabbed his ear, pulled him away, and then quickly put her clothes in place. He can't eat any more.
Huo Chengfeng gently leaned behind her, hugged her again, and took a deep breath, "Next time you feel uncomfortable, call me again."
Shi Mingzhu's face turned red and she pushed him away, but Huo Chengfeng took the opportunity to lie down on the bed and moved even closer to her.
Huo Chengfeng buried his face in the pillow and just laughed silently.
Just as I was having fun, I heard voices coming from outside the door.
Shi Mingzhu heard the voice of her father-in-law Huo Jiafeng.
"Go and see what's going on! Bring another basin of hot water!" Shi Mingzhu patted the man on the back.
"Okay." Huo Chengfeng responded in a muffled voice, and moved quickly. He got up, dressed, and opened the door to see that his father had come home by himself.
Huo Chengfeng frowned. He glanced at the sky outside. It was already daybreak. Why did he come home so early?
"Chengfeng," Huo Jiafeng was standing in the yard, talking to Yu Meizhen. When he saw his son, he called out.
Huo Chengfeng nodded, ignored him, and went straight to the kitchen. He picked up the thermos, filled half a basin with cold water, and returned to the room.
"Dad is here." He said to Shi Mingzhu in a somewhat depressed tone.
"I didn't call him. I asked him to wait for news in the hotel."
He frowned in annoyance. He was annoyed that his father didn't listen to him and didn't take his words seriously at all. He promised Shi Mingzhu last night that he would listen to her, but his father turned out to be like this.
This would only make him push Shi Mingzhu further away.
Shi Mingzhu just said "oh" to indicate that she understood. No more publication was made.
As for what she was thinking, she felt that there was no need for her to tell Huo Chengfeng.
Her mood was not affected at all. She poured some hot water, wiped her chest, and asked Huo Chengfeng to take it out and pour it.
Huo Chengfeng glanced at her and went out with the water. But this time when he came out, he didn't see his father again.
He asked Yu Meizhen, "Mom, what is Dad doing here?"
"Your father is here to deliver something." Yu Meizhen pointed to the basket and old hen placed in the corner of the kitchen stove.
"I went out to buy groceries this morning, and I ran into your dad when I came back. He brought half a basket of eggs and an old hen."
Huo Chengfeng looked at the eggs and the old hen without saying anything.
"He didn't stay long," Yu Meizhen said, glancing at her son's face. "He was just about to leave when he spoke to me, but you bumped into him."
"He knew Mingzhu wouldn't let him come home..."
Huo Chengfeng glanced at his mother when he heard this. He knew that she came even though she was not allowed to. He sighed and felt a headache. "I asked him to wait for a few days. Can't he wait for a few days?"
"Your dad is just anxious to show off. He just told me that he thought it through last night. He would accept any last name Yangyang has. He just can't get over it for the moment."
"Mingzhu, please ask your father to understand. Your father, and even me, are not progressive enough. It's all our fault. Now that we have figured it out and have made progress, shouldn't we give them a chance?"
"We used to go to an old-fashioned school and learn old ideas. Now we are trying to keep up with the times. You see, Mingzhu must give us a chance to see our progress."
Huo Chengfeng could tell his mother was trying to play the emotional card. "Mom, Mingzhu doesn't like playing the emotional card. Don't use your little tricks on her. You did have a prejudice against Yangyang's last name at the beginning, but now that she has accepted it, if you speak openly and honestly, she will be more willing to accept it."
"Mingzhu wants attitude. She doesn't like you to have prejudice against Yangyang. Besides, she is my wife and Yangyang's mother. She is the mistress. She can make the decision for me and Yangyang. Don't make the decision for her."
Yu Meizhen listened quietly, then sighed and nodded. She understood, "Your father and I are also people who want to save face. Please give us some time to digest this.
"...As for the eggs and the old hen, tell Mingzhu. If she doesn't want them, I'll send them back to your father.
Huo Chengfeng patted Yu Meizhen's shoulder and said, "Mom, don't let your imagination run wild. Mingzhu didn't have any problem with everyone at first, but she just had a child, and because of the child's surname, she suffered prejudice and the child was not accepted, so she insisted on asking for these things, and she was not wrong. She beat Chengyu, and Chengyu deserved it. If I had an aunt, and she treated you like this, you would hate her too. So between the two of them, don't take Chengyu's side no matter what. If you really want to help, help whoever is right for you."
"We are a family, and we should work together."
Yu Meizhen's eyes felt a little hot after listening to this. She glanced at her son, held back her tears, and nodded with a smile.
Huo Chengfeng didn't stay in the kitchen for long. He hugged his mother and left.
As I walked out of the kitchen, I saw Shi Mingzhu's back in front of me.
He walked over quickly and saw that she was wearing thin clothes. He scolded her while protecting her from the wind. It was still a little chilly in the morning after the night rain.
"Why are you out? Why don't you wear more clothes?"
"It's okay, I'm not cold, I even feel a little hot." Shi Mingzhu glanced at him and then looked towards the kitchen. "I want to go to the bathroom and brush my teeth."
"I'll take you there, wash up, and I'll get you some water later." Huo Chengfeng half-hugged and half-carried her to the bathroom.
The bathroom is next to the kitchen.
After going to the toilet, Shi Mingzhu returned to her room. Not long after, Huo Chengfeng came in with some water and asked her to brush her teeth and wash up in the room.
After seeing her rinse her mouth, Huo Chengfeng handed her a wet towel.
Shi Mingzhu wiped his face and returned them to him, "Keep those eggs and the old hen for now. There's no rush to eat them, and you don't have to return them."
After that, Shi Mingzhu asked him to help her prepare breakfast for today. "I want to have some chicken noodle soup for breakfast. The chicken soup from last night should still have the soup base."
Huo Chengfeng was stunned for a while and asked her, "Did you hear everything?"
Shi Mingzhu nodded, "I started hearing this from the moment you asked your mother not to play the emotional card. You performed quite well and even knew to ask your parents not to play the emotional card." She smiled at him. She was very satisfied with the first two sentences, so she turned a blind eye to the fact that her father-in-law brought things to play the emotional card and waited to see how they would perform afterwards.
The son has broken down the methods and told them the details, so the father-in-law should know what to do, right?
