Li Hanchen deliberately walked up to Qianqian, carefully examined his masterpiece, and said in a serious tone, "Hmm, these pink plum blossoms look pretty good."
Ouyang Qian didn't react for a moment. Where did the plum blossoms come from?
Suddenly meeting the man's teasing gaze, she realized she had been tricked, and her face immediately turned red.
Thinking of the happiness of the evening, Li Hanchen didn't dare to go too far. He touched the tip of his nose and whispered coaxing words in his wife's ear.
"Wife, I'm sorry, it's all my fault. I promise I won't leave any marks on your neck again."
Ouyang Qian glanced over with a resentful look; she was already immune to those words.
“You said the same thing last month.”
She absolutely cannot be soft-hearted this time.
"You go out first, I still need to wash my face and change my clothes."
Seeing that his wife seemed genuinely angry, Li Hanchen didn't dare to go out and just lingered behind her.
If his wife washes her face, he hands her a towel; if she changes her clothes, he hands her clothes.
"I need to change my clothes, you should leave now."
Ouyang Qian was truly stunned by the man's shamelessness.
Li Hanchen obediently went out this time, unaware that his little wife was giggling foolishly after closing the door.
It took half an hour in total, and by then it was already seven o'clock.
I just applied some powder to my neck, and it finally covered the hickey.
"Get up! How did you sleep last night?"
Chen Shufang came out of the kitchen carrying a pot of porridge. When she saw the young couple coming down the stairs, she immediately smiled at them.
Seeing her mother-in-law busy taking care of everything, Ouyang Qian felt bad.
"Mom, I'm sorry, I overslept."
"We don't have that many rules, so don't worry about it too much."
Chen Shufang waved her hand, "Oh right, I asked Aunt Yang to make pigeon soup to nourish your body."
To be precise, Han Chen instructed her this morning, and also told her and Yang Ma not to disturb Qianqian.
As someone who had been through it all, she immediately understood the unspoken meaning in her son's words.
The young couple is so loving, so her grandson must be just around the corner.
"Thank you, Mom." Ouyang Qian sometimes felt that finding a good mother-in-law was more important than marrying a good husband.
In a typical family, the mother-in-law would definitely have a problem with her.
Chen Shufang patted Qianqian's hand, "No need to thank me, this is what Han Chen instructed."
Ouyang Qian was stunned for a moment, only her mother-in-law's last words flashing through her mind.
So it was Ah Chen who instructed her; that's why the old woman knew about their events last night…
Biting her lower lip, she looked up at her husband. Before she could ask for confirmation, Ah Chen smiled at her.
Ouyang Qian suddenly understood everything. How was she supposed to face her mother-in-law now?
The atmosphere at the dinner table was fairly harmonious. Chen Shufang was concerned about the young couple's daily life, and they were happy to share.
"Han Ting will bring Jing Jing and the child over later. Qian Qian, are you going grocery shopping with Mom later?"
As people get older, they yearn for their families to gather together happily, and Chen Shufang is no exception.
Before Jingjing's personality changed, it was difficult for them to get together.
Han Ting rarely takes the two children back to the old house because Jingjing doesn't want An'an and Yuanyuan to have too much contact with them.
"OK."
Ouyang Qian happily agreed.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had just left the house when Li Hanting returned to the old house with his wife and children.
"Aunt Yang, where are my parents?"
Upon entering the living room, finding it empty, Li Hanting couldn't help but feel puzzled.
Yang Ma answered truthfully, "The leaders are in the study, and Madam and the eldest young mistress went out to buy groceries."
At that moment, Li Yuan, who was in the study, seemed to hear his youngest son's voice and quickly interrupted Han Chen's report.
"Han Chen, is it your brother and the others who are back?"
Li Hanchen listened carefully and said, "It seems so."
Let's stop here for today.
Li Yuan got up, opened the door, and walked out.
When An'an and Yuanyuan downstairs saw their grandfather, they chattered enthusiastically, making him smile broadly.
An elderly person and two children in the courtyard were doing the most childish things, yet their actions revealed warmth and affection.
Shortly after, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law returned, carrying several bags.
"Mom, sister-in-law, you're back."
Su Jingjing stepped forward and took the bag; it was quite heavy.
A month has passed, and Ouyang Qian feels that Jingjing has changed a lot. She is not only much prettier, but also more gentle.
Chen Shufang nodded, telling the two girls not to follow, "Yang Ma and I will cook, you two go sit over there."
Su Jingjing secretly observed her sister-in-law's face, and for some reason, she felt that her sister-in-law was not in good condition.
"An'an and Yuanyuan are so cute."
Looking at the two children playing with their father-in-law not far away, Ouyang Qian felt truly envious.
Why can't she have a child?
Su Jingjing became even more certain of her thoughts. "Sister-in-law, there's something I'm not sure if I should ask?"
"What are you saying?"
Ouyang Qian smiled and said, "It's alright."
Su Jingjing then voiced her doubts.
"Sister-in-law, have you been overthinking things lately?"
The book mentions that the eldest brother treats his sister-in-law extremely well, and the two have never had a serious argument in all the years they've been married.
Therefore, it can only be said that it is the child's problem.
Ouyang Qian awkwardly picked up her hand and touched her cheek. Was it really that obvious?
"Um."
Although she didn't know Jingjing's purpose, she didn't sense any malice.
“Sister-in-law, sometimes when you relax, you’ll get unexpected results.”
"Sister-in-law, do you believe me?"
Ouyang Qian nodded as if possessed.
"Starting today, you don't need to take any more medicine. Just relax every day, and you'll have a big, healthy baby boy eventually."
Ouyang Qian immediately understood Jingjing's meaning, but how did she know that she was taking medicine?
At this moment, she wanted to say all the things she had kept bottled up for years.
“Jingjing, you don’t know, the issue of children has always been a worry for me. Without children, our marriage wouldn’t have lasted.”
"Sister-in-law, it will happen, it's just that the time isn't right yet."
After the conversation, Ouyang Qian felt much better.
With the arrival of the two children, the Li family's old house became even more lively.
They are still staying at the old house tonight, and An'an and Yuanyuan are still sleeping with their grandparents.
Su Jingjing didn't want to experience that awkward situation again, so she refused to let A-Ting touch her that night.
How could Li Hanting possibly give up such a good opportunity?
However, he still considered his wife's feelings and didn't ask for too much.
In another room, Ouyang Qian and her husband were leaning against the headboard.
Li Hanchen could clearly feel that Qianqian's mood had brightened considerably.
"Ah Chen, I will never take medicine again."
Just like Jingjing said, maybe it's just not meant to be.
Li Hanchen didn't press for the reason; instead, he was curious about his wife's good mood.
"Honey, I think you're especially happy tonight."
"Really?" Ouyang Qian finally suppressed the smile on her lips.
"Actually, it's nothing. I just chatted with Jingjing for a while at noon, and I felt much better."
