Chapter 84 Mother and Son Talk
But soon, Chen Caiqi lowered her eyes and ate, while Wei Miaomiao was secretly happy, thinking that her elder brother must like his sister-in-law very much.
There were many dishes on the table, but Chen Caiqi, as usual, didn't touch the meat with her chopsticks and only ate the vegetables. Wei Dong specially put a few pieces of meat into her bowl.
She seemed to be scolding, "Mom doesn't like to eat meat, it gets stuck in my teeth, you guys eat more, and give Qing'er more meat."
Lian Yuqing, who grew up in a wealthy family, naturally had no such experience, but she could see Chen Caiqi's love for her child behind this awkward behavior. If the child couldn't get enough of meat, how could he not like it?
However, until the end of the meal, Chen Caiqi did not mention the pregnancy.
Wei Dong glanced at the bowl of the person next to him. She had finished her meal but didn't take any more dishes. Thinking she was feeling uncomfortable, he asked her while Chen Caiqi was in the kitchen, "Are you full?"
"Well, I just put too much salt in the radish and greens. They're a bit salty."
These two dishes were cooked by Chen Caiqi. She didn't know Lian Yuqing's taste. Wei Dong didn't say anything, but asked, "What do you want to eat tomorrow?"
"Stew chicken with wild ginseng for Miaomiao... and your mother. You don't know that Miaomiao looks like a skewer of spareribs, without any meat at all."
Wei Miaomiao looked down at herself and said, "Sister-in-law, I just don't have any flesh on my chest..."
Wei Dong smiled and tapped her forehead, "It's rare for you to be so virtuous."
"Please don't slander an excellent teacher."
Chen Caiqi came out and Wei Dong helped to clean up the dishes and took them into the kitchen.
Wei Miaomiao wanted to help, but Lian Yuqing dragged her somewhere else to play.
After a while, Lian Yuqing pulled Wei Miaomiao, both holding baskets in their hands, "I'm taking Miaomiao to the bathhouse!"
Without waiting for anyone to answer, he changed his shoes and ran out.
The daughter-in-law has a good relationship with the youngest daughter. Chen Caiqi's plain face softened. "Qing'er is not bad, but she is just like a child and easily loses her temper."
The sound of running water from the faucet filled the space between mother and son. Wei Dong rinsed the bowl hastily and said firmly, "Mom, why are you here just now?"
Chen Caiqi's eyes flashed: "Dongzi, do you know that Qing'er has difficulty getting pregnant?"
"Know."
It turned out that Chen Caiqi understood that the eldest son was the most favored one in the family. "In fact, when I first knew about it, my heart felt like it was being cut by a knife. Dongzi, you are different from your younger brother and sister. When you were born, our family was too poor and you suffered a lot. When your younger brother and sister were born, our family conditions became better, but you suffered in the army. Mom wanted you to get married and have a baby, so that good days would come."
At this point, Chen Caiqi choked up. Wei Dong was a quiet child, but he was also naughty when he was young and would go up the mountain to hunt birds and down the river to fish. Everyone in the village said that her son had made great progress, but she felt more and more sorry for her son. No mother wants her son to suffer.
"Mom, I don't feel it's hard." Wei Dong relied on his own efforts to give his family a good life, and he felt that it was all worth it.
"Your father advised me that you saved Qing'er, and she saved our family. Karma is a cycle, and this is fate! I accept it."
The water flowed for a long time. Wei Dong turned on the faucet and looked across with a far-reaching gaze: "Mom, I love her. It has nothing to do with the child."
Chen Caiqi was stunned. She knew that her eldest son was a romantic man.
The mother and son were silent for a while, and Chen Caiqi calmed down and asked, "Have you been to the hospital?"
"I checked it out. The doctor said that if I take good care of myself, there won't be any major problems."
This news gave hope to Chen Caiqi, who was already desperate, and she said three good words in a row, "Originally, your father and I planned to give you a child..."
"Mom, don't say that." Wei Dong interrupted Chen Caiqi.
