Chapter 54 Alone in a Room (shuhaige.net)



Su Jingjing didn't understand why the other person asked that question, but she still nodded truthfully.

"You've lost so much weight in such a short time. You need to take care of yourself. That's enough."

However, Su Jingjing did look much more energetic after losing weight.

Su Jingjing was stunned; her mother-in-law's way of showing concern was indeed unique.

Ouyang Qian nudged her younger brother and sister-in-law's arm.

Su Jingjing then realized what was happening, and her tone softened, "Thank you, Mom. I've been taking care of my health."

"That's good."

Just then, the father and his two sons came down the stairs, and Xu Ma came into the living room to invite everyone to dinner.

The head of the family spoke up, "It's almost noon, An'an and Yuanyuan must be hungry, let's eat first."

Chen Shufang chimed in, "I'll take An'an and Yuanyuan to wash their hands first."

Just as Su Jingjing was about to follow, her wrist was suddenly pulled by a force.

She turned her head in surprise. "What's wrong?"

Seeing that she remained calm, Li Hanting assumed that she hadn't had a conflict with her mother, and he felt relieved.

"By the way, what were you guys talking about just now?"

Su Jingjing suddenly realized, "You don't think I'm going to cause trouble, do you?"

She wasn't the original owner of this body, yet she foolishly offended the Li family.

"Don't worry, I said I would be a good mother to An'an and Yuanyuan, and I won't break my promise."

After washing his hands, the little one ran over happily and called out to his parents, "Mom and Dad, dinner's ready!"

Su Jingjing said "Hey," and then asked the man, "Um...can you let go now?"

If other people see this, she won't be able to explain herself.

Watching the mother and daughter's backs, Li Hanting thought to himself, "Do you only want to be a good mother to two children?"

There's no rule about not talking while eating at the Li family's dinner table, but it's inevitably a bit quiet when the two adorable little girls, Yuanyuan and Huanhuan, aren't around.

Today, Yuanyuan ate with a satisfied look on her face, led by her aunt.

For the sake of his granddaughter's happiness, Li Yuan, unusually, did not scold his usually mischievous daughter.

Seeing Yuanyuan today, he felt much more at ease, as she seemed much more cheerful.

After dinner, Li Yuehuan took the two little ones out to play.

Su Jingjing suddenly had some free time and was also interested in taking a stroll around the Li family's courtyard.

Looking at the huge house, she thought to herself that it must be worth a lot of money.

Then she saw her sister-in-law watering the flowers, and she walked over out of curiosity.

"Sister-in-law, are these the flowers you grew?"

It looks like a rose.

Ouyang Qian stopped what she was doing, shook her head, and said gently, "I only come back every now and then, so I don't have time to plant flowers. These are grown by my mother."

Su Jingjing never expected her mother-in-law to have such leisure time.

By the way, my mother-in-law seems to have come from a respectable family. She was relentlessly pursued by my father-in-law, who was a poor young man at the time, which is quite a story.

"Jingjing, why aren't you going in for your afternoon nap?"

She doesn't sleep much, and she can't sleep when she gets home, so she came to the yard to water the flowers.

Su Jingjing responded in a hoarse voice, making up a random excuse to brush it off.

"I'm not actually sleepy, I just slept too much last night."

That used to be Li Hanting's room. She felt it would be strange for her to go in, and the man might not be willing to let her.

"Sister-in-law, what about you?"

Ouyang Qian smiled wryly and briefly explained her situation.

Can't sleep?

My sister-in-law isn't pregnant. Could it be related to her worries?

"Sister-in-law, do you tend to overthink things?"

But she came from a scholarly family, was pampered by her parents, and received the love of her eldest brother after marriage, so why would she have any worries?

Looking into her sister-in-law's eyes, Ouyang Qian looked away. She wasn't sure if the other party meant well or was there to make a fool of her, so she didn't say what was on her mind.

"I'm not thinking about anything, I just can't sleep."

Su Jingjing understood that her sister-in-law didn't trust her yet, so she smiled and didn't press the matter further.

Dinner was still at the Li family's house. Just when Su Jingjing thought she would go home to her family's residence after dinner, her mother-in-law asked her to stay.

"Han Ting, it's getting dark outside. Is tomorrow's training important? Why don't you stay home tonight?"

Since her youngest son's family moved out, they have never stayed overnight at home, but Chen Shufang has always had his room kept spotless.

She hadn't dared to bring it up before, for fear that Su Jingjing would cause trouble.

Su Jingjing has changed a lot now, and she wants her son to stay at home for one night.

Li Hanting subconsciously looked at Su Jingjing's reaction. There was no expression of disgust on her face, but rather she seemed worried and afraid.

Why does she have that expression?

Doesn't she want to be alone in a room with herself?

Thinking about this, Li Hanting suddenly felt a little looking forward to the two of them being alone in a room.

"Okay, Mom, then I'll stay home for the night."

Chen Shufang had a lot of things she wanted to say to persuade her son, but when she heard him agree, she was overjoyed. "Okay, okay, your room was cleaned yesterday."

ah?

So you agreed?

It's okay, An'an and Yuanyuan are in the room, so it won't be awkward.

The next second, Su Jingjing's hope was shattered.

"An'an and Yuanyuan, do you want to sleep with Grandma tonight?"

Chen Shufang hugged the two little ones and kissed each of them.

Li Yuanyuan hesitated in her heart. She wanted to sleep with her parents, but she also wanted to sleep with her grandparents.

Chen Shufang decided to take drastic measures and whispered in her granddaughter's ear, "Yuanyuan, let's let Mom and Dad cultivate our relationship tonight."

Li Yuanyuan's eyes darted around; she and her brother would only be happy if their parents had a good relationship.

"Okay, Grandma, I'll sleep with you tonight, and my brother will too."
