By the time An Hongdou finished cleaning, Shen Xiangzhi had already washed the three children and put them on the bed.
An Hongdou lay at the door, watching him holding the child's hand, then the child's feet, looking him up and down, with a puzzled expression on his face.
He didn't even notice her walk in.
An Hongdou patted his shoulder and asked him, "What are you looking at?"
Shen Xiangzhi shook subconsciously, “I didn’t see anything, are you done?”
"Yeah." An Hongdou nodded, but when she saw him immediately let go of the child and walk to the other side, she clearly felt something was wrong.
She lowered her head, smiled and kissed all three babies on the face, then pushed them all down on the bed.
The eldest baby was swaying from side to side and rolling around, the second baby was screaming and backing away, and the third baby was the most obedient. He just lay there, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
An Hongdou ignored them, tidied herself up and lay down on the bed.
When Shen Xiangzhi followed and lay down, she suddenly opened her eyes and asked him, "Are you sure...you have nothing to tell me?"
Those eyes were bright and calm.
But Shen Xiangzhi felt her impatience for no reason.
"What?" Shen Xiangzhi asked her tentatively, "Are you talking about me looking at the child's hands and feet?"
"So what you mean is that you have other things that will make me unhappy?" An Hongdou asked him.
"Dad came over today, and I asked him if he went too far again and you didn't let him see the kids, would you be angry?" After all, as a man, it was actually quite rude to say such things.
"There's nothing to be angry about. It's better for you to give him a reminder, so that he won't be allowed to look after the child in the future. He said that no one greeted him." An Hongdou didn't think there was anything wrong with it, and Shen Wanhua did cause her some harm.
When facing the An family, she was not the original owner after all, but just a soul from another world that occupied the original owner's body.
Although this was not what she wanted, it was reasonable for her to take better care of the original owner's family.
She had taken possession of An Hongdou's body, so she owed the An family a debt. The one who was most indebted was Old Lady An, her mother.
Therefore, for the sake of her brothers' happiness, she could ignore the little calculations of her sisters-in-law.
Keeping An Changyue by my side will allow me to train her and make things easier for myself at the same time.
As for the other younger generations of the An family, she also did her best to get them into school. After all, at their age, going to school is their only option.
It was impossible to return the body. Regardless of whether she was willing or not, the original owner no longer existed, so she had no way of returning it.
But that doesn't mean she can take possession of someone else's body as a matter of course.
If possible, she hopes that the younger generations of the An family can become successful. She believes that whether it is the original owner or the old lady An, they also hope that their family can be happy and peaceful.
But she didn't owe the Shen family anything, and no one could ask her, as a daughter-in-law, to endure things that she shouldn't endure.
Therefore, she could use all her patience towards the An family because she owed it to the original owner, but she would not swallow her anger towards others because she did not owe anyone anything.
Chen Xiangzhi was silent for a while, then explained: "Hongdou, my father is actually very good to me. He has never lacked me in terms of food, clothing and daily expenses. But if you really say it's good, I always feel that something is missing. I have been at odds with him since I was a child. Since I was sensible, we have rarely had a good talk. If I rush to the front to protect you, it will definitely not be as effective as if you stand up on your own. Anyway, he knows that I am afraid of my wife and don't take charge of the family. You are the head of our family. As long as he still wants to see his grandson, he will definitely not dare to offend you."
Of course, this approach doesn't work for everyone.
The premise is that An Hongdou herself is very powerful and has long been famous. Before Shen Wanhua offends her, he always subconsciously thinks about how powerful this daughter-in-law is and thinks carefully about whether he can offend her.
On the other hand, it was different for Shen Xiangzhi. He was his own son, so beating and scolding him was justified. Some of his words were indeed not as powerful as bringing up An Hongdou.
"Afraid of your wife? Not in charge of the household?" An Hongdou really didn't think so.
Although, the current situation of their family seems to be like this, but Shen Xiangzhi hides it deeply, don't think she doesn't know.
Shen Xiangzhi smiled in a particularly flattering way, "I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid, my grandfather said that a wife is to be loved, I love you, and respect you."
Having successfully changed the subject, Shen Xiangzhi was quite proud of himself.
However, before he could be happy, he heard An Hong ask, "Let's not talk about this for now. Why did you look at the children before I came in just now?"
If this wasn't her biological father, she would have suspected that this guy had bad intentions.
The smile on Shen Xiangzhi’s face suddenly froze.
How come we are back to this topic after so many twists and turns?
"I didn't see anything." Chen Xiang knew: "I just wanted to see if the children look more like you or me."
"Then did you figure it out?" An Hongdou asked him.
Shen Xiangzhi shook his head, “No.”
An Hongdou stared at him for a long time, not quite believing the authenticity of this excuse.
Shen Xiangzhi was able to keep his composure this time. He just lay there and let her look at him, but he refused to say anything.
The three children fell asleep one after another. When Chen Xiangzhi saw that An Hongdou had also closed her eyes, he got up and turned off the lights. He habitually hugged An Hongdou's body and let her head rest on his shoulder. Only then did he close his eyes with satisfaction.
The air suddenly became quiet, and gradually only the breathing of each other was left.
Shen Xiangzhi was in a daze when he suddenly felt something moving on his waist.
He stretched out his hand to grab it, but suddenly felt that thing speed up and directly wrapped around his waist.
But in an instant, his body flipped over and fell to the ground with a flop.
Shen Xiangzhi wanted to move, but was tied up tightly, his hands, feet and body were wrapped like a pupa, except for his head which was exposed.
"Wife..." Shen Xiangzhi called out tentatively, but there was no sound. He was so angry that he yelled again, "An Hongdou..."
An Hongdou turned over and slept soundly facing the other side.
I don’t know whether she really didn’t hear it or was pretending not to hear it, but she remained motionless like a clock.
In the dark night, Shen Xiangzhi was afraid of attracting others, so he didn't dare to shout too much, and just lay miserably on the ground for half the night.
At first, I was so angry that my heart ached. I just stared at the person on the bed with my eyes open, not feeling sleepy at all.
Gradually feeling sleepy, he decided to just give up and fell asleep without even thinking about what was going on.
