Chapter 485: My Husband Favors Another Woman
Fang Shuyu felt that the passbook in her hand was like a hot potato. She was about to hand it back to Mingzhu, but Mingzhu held her hand tightly.
"Don't give it to me. Just keep these things. I won't die if you take them. I just want an insurance policy. Otherwise, I'll have to worry every day that Jiang Duo will think too much and be sad when he sees these things. I'm still pregnant and anxiety is bad for my body."
Fang Shuyu was helpless after hearing what Mingzhu said. She could only stare at the passbook for a long time and then nodded:
"You didn't lie to me. You made such preparations just because you are afraid of having a baby. There is nothing else, right?"
Mingzhu pursed her lips: "Of course not. Didn't you see that I can eat and drink? But you must not tell Jiang Duo about this, or he will be worried. If he is uneasy, he won't be able to sleep well at night. If he can't sleep well at night, how can he do his job well?"
Fang Shuyu's expression became a little solemn, and finally nodded.
But she couldn't hide her thoughts. When they were having dinner, Jiang Duo still found out that something was wrong with her. After
he served Mingzhu some food, he looked at Fang Shuyu and said in a serious tone, "Mom, what's the matter?"
Fang Shuyu tensed for a moment, raised her eyes to look at Jiang Duo, and immediately lowered her head to eat as if nothing happened, "I'm fine, what can happen to me?"
Jiang Duo looked at her with sharp eyes .
It would be strange if she was fine. Normally, she talked the most during dinner, but today she was silent as if she didn't open her mouth, and she raised her head from time to time to secretly look at Mingzhu, which showed that there was something wrong.
"You are very abnormal."
Fang Shuyu felt uneasy when she was stared at. Couldn't her son be less sensitive? She has already tried her best to cover it up, why...
Mingzhu chuckled: "Ms. Fang, stop pretending, just tell Jiang Duo directly."
Fang Shuyu was stunned: "Ah?"
But Mingzhu did not give her a chance to react or speak, and turned to look at Jiang Duo: "Kang Jingzhi came to my house to see me this afternoon. Ms. Fang was worried and felt it was not safe for me to go out with that man. She probably wants you to keep an eye on me."
Fang Shuyu:...
That's right...she is indeed worried.
"The main reason is that the Kang family has a bad reputation. I think it is necessary to keep a distance."
Mingzhu nodded: "So, I have already told him that we will all live in the family compound from now on, so we can't go to the courtyard to supply him with raw materials. The medicinal tea has also been suspended. Husband, can you take some time in the evening to help me deliver the raw materials to the factory and hand them over to the Niu family's sister-in-law? In this way, I don't have to meet Kang Jingzhi again."
Recently, because of Mingzhu's arrangement, the Niu family has made a lot of money. The medicine for the old man's treatment is better than before, and his health has improved significantly.
So most of the time, the Niu family couple helps in the factory, and the old man takes his grandson to sell melon seeds outside the cinema.
Life was going well. The whole family was grateful to Mingzhu. They were very attentive to the things Mingzhu arranged. They did whatever she asked them to do and worked a few extra hours every day without complaint. It was reassuring.
Jiang Duo raised his eyebrows and said, "No problem. I'll take it home after dinner every night."
Mingzhu looked up at Fang Shuyu. Fang Shuyu tried to calm down and smiled at the two of them. "Okay, as long as Zhuzhu doesn't have contact with Kang Jingzhi, I'll feel at ease. Let's eat."
After dinner, Fang Shuyu cleaned up the dishes and went back to the sewing machine.
She was inexplicably depressed today and had to be busy to stop thinking too much.
Jiang Duo and Mingzhu returned to the room. Mingzhu pulled Jiang Duo into the space to collect the original liquid. She had already prepared the large barrels.
After not coming in for three days, Jiang Duo found that the mist in the space had almost dissipated, and the surroundings were almost all surrounded by darkness. All that could be seen were the spiritual spring and the coordinates, which were only two or three meters away.
Standing inside made people feel a little depressed.
Mingzhu seemed to be fine. She sat directly on the stool beside the spiritual spring, with her elbows on the stone trough, her palms holding her cheeks, and looked at Jiang Duo lazily: "Husband, I don't want to move at all. You can collect the raw materials yourself, I'll cheer you up."
"Well, I don't need you," Jiang Duo pursed his lips hard, pulled the first large barrel over, lowered his head and worked silently.
Mingzhu looked at Jiang Duo's expression, it was obvious that he was suppressing his emotions with all his strength. She smiled brilliantly but said slyly: "Husband, come on, husband, come on..."
Jiang Duo raised his eyes to look at her, his brows obviously relaxed: "Don't make a fuss, no need to come on."
Mingzhu pouted: "I just want you to feel my company, no, it's the company of me and your three kids, otherwise we would feel so guilty letting you work alone, people who don't know would think we are enslaving you."
Jiang Duo said calmly: "This is very easy, it doesn't count as work." Mingzhu pouted
: "But this is not for me... It is very hard to be a mother, so my husband is really super awesome, he handles all the things I can't do and don't want to do."
She looked down at her belly and stroked it gently: "If there are sons in there, listen carefully, take a good look at how great your father is, loving mom, protecting mom, helping mom solve all her problems, you must learn from him in the future, of course...no need for a daughter-in-law, our daughter-in-law is the same as mom, she just needs to enjoy the happiness." As
she spoke, she saw that her belly was bulging a little here and there due to the punches and kicks of the little guy inside.
Mingzhu pointed at her belly and looked at Jiang Duo with a smile: "Look, I guess the son inside heard that we favor our daughter and is rebelling against me."
Jiang Duo came over and gently stroked Mingzhu's belly: "Stop kicking, mom will be tired."
The room suddenly became quiet.
Mingzhu: "Oh...bully the weak and fear the strong."
Jiang Duo took his hand back and smiled, then continued to work: "Maybe you spoil them too much, and they are not afraid when they hear your voice."
"Why don't you spoil them?"
Jiang Duo was very calm: "Children don't need to be spoiled too much, or
they will get used to it." "Hey, what you say now doesn't count. If you don't believe me, think about it. What if the girls you give birth to in the future are all as soft and tender as me? I don't believe that you can still bear not to spoil them and get used to them. Maybe then...as a mother, I will have to stand aside."
Thinking of this, Mingzhu pouted and said unhappily: "When I think of my husband spoiling another woman, my heart starts to feel sad, and it's dripping...tears, pat pat, can you hear it?"
I wanted to say dripping blood, but then I thought about the old feudal lord standing opposite me, so I gave up immediately.
Jiang Duo's uncomfortable mood just now has been coaxed by Mingzhu's poor acting skills, and he has calmed down a lot, and smiled.
"Don't worry, I don't spoil them, they will have their own husbands to spoil them in the future, I only spoil you, because after decades of twists and turns, only you will always be mine."
