Chapter 728: Chapter 727: Who Made My Wife Angry?
Yang Wanng’s mother-in-law was curtly interrupted by Hao Xiaoyun before she could finish, which upset her, “It’s only this ti and you’re already making lunch!
Don’t worry! At my age, I shouldn’t be arguing with a pregnant junior.”
Her son had told her that this daughter-in-law’s family had a strong background.
She ca to look after her daughter-in-law during her confinent to help her son, not to cause him trouble!
Lin Xia was ready to retort a few more words, but Hao Xiaoyun abruptly stopped her, “Lin Xia!”
Hao Xiaoyun wore a polite smile, “Auntie! Then why don’t you go for a walk? We’ll head back first! There’s still a pile of chores at ho!”
“Okay! You go ahead!”
Hao Xiaoyun pulled Lin Xia by the wrist, and they entered the apartnt building’s hallway together.
Hao Xiaoyun then asked softly, “Lin Xia! Why were you so emotional just now?”
She had known Lin Xia for quite so ti and had never seen her speak so impolitely.
Lin Xia was still fuming inside but there were so things, despite their good relationship, she couldn’t share with Hao Xiaoyun.
“I just didn’t like the sound of what she was saying!”
Hao Xiaoyun sighed, “Alas! Older people are like this! If I hadn’t had a son, who knows what my mother-in-law would’ve been like!”
Hao Xiaoyun actually felt uncomfortable too, considering Yang Wanng was soone they had to deal with on a day-to-day basis.
Now, seeing her mother-in-law act this way, if Yang Wanng really had a daughter, the future might bring strife.
Lin Xia actually understood that these deep-rooted ideas of preferring boys over girls wouldn’t change, not just in this era of the eighties, but in the future as well.
Even many people feel their lives are aningless and incomplete without a son!
Seeing Lin Xia’s expression soften slightly, Hao Xiaoyun suggested, “How about you co to my place for a while?”
Lin Xia directly shook her head refusing, “No, thanks! Sister! I’m a bit tired! I just want to go ho and lay down!”
She knew Hao Xiaoyun ant well and wanted to chat with her.
But there were so things she could discuss with Lu Zheng, but not with soone outside the family.
In the end, she was still troubled by Fang Youlan’s past actions.
On normal days, when life was stable and smooth, she generally didn’t dwell on those matters.
But seeing Yang Wanng’s mother-in-law speak so matter-of-factly, she found a common ground with them and that’s why she was particularly upset.
“All right! Then I’ll give you so of these green onions to take ho, you can use them as scallions with sauce!” Hao Xiaoyun handed Lin Xia a handful of green onions.
The two went upstairs and parted at the door, each entering their own hos.
When Lu Zheng ca ho at noon, he keenly noticed sothing off about his wife’s expression.
Usually, as soon as he entered the door, his wife would definitely greet him with a cheerful smile.
But today, her face was crumpled, and her lips were drooping, very much like she had just been angry.
“Wife! What’s the matter? Are you feeling unwell?”
“I’m not feeling unwell! Is noodles okay?” Lin Xia wasn’t in a great mood, and she didn’t feel like cooking sothing complex, so she casually made so scalded noodles with broth.
However, she added four eggs to it, and just before serving, she sprinkled a layer of green onions on top, which also tasted quite nice.
“Sure!” Lu Zheng was not picky at all; as long as his wife made it, he’d be happy eating pickles.
The couple sat at the dining table to eat.
Lin Xia had one bowl and then put her chopsticks down, saying she didn’t want to eat anymore.
Lu Zheng looked at Lin Xia, and instantly had an idea, “Who exactly upset my wife?”
Seeing Lu Zheng had eaten two big bowls and was halfway through his belly, Lin Xia started talking to him about Yang Wanng’s mother-in-law.
“…The mont I heard it, I got so upset! She’s a woman herself, why would she say having a daughter is a misfortune?”
Although Lu Zheng usually loved seeing Lin Xia puffed up like an angry little cat, he knew she couldn’t be angry under these circumstances.
“Wife! Calm down! There’s no need to get this upset over sothing an irrelevant person said!”
In Lu Zheng’s view, that person was Yang Wanng’s mother-in-law, not hers, and their opinions did not concern them.
It would be normal if Yang Wanng herself was very upset after hearing it.
Lin Xia pursed her lips, then started to share her true feelings, “I know I shouldn’t mind! But maybe it’s because I have empathy.
You see, since I got pregnant, your grandmother has been acting up; later, I was almost hard by ng Xiangzi’s mother’s scheming—all because she thought I was carrying a daughter!
Lu Zheng was about to speak when Lin Xia stopped him with a wave of her hand, “Let finish! I don’t know why, but sotis I just feel so anxious.
If one of the kids was a boy, it would be easier, but if it turns out they are all girls, the people in your family would definitely…
Lin Xia knew she shouldn’t think this way; she realized that a woman goes through lots of physical and psychological changes during pregnancy.
She used to be a very strong person, always reliant on herself. Wherever she faced challenges, she would bravely confront them, ignoring what others thought.
But now, she has beco sensitive, fragile, sentintal, and prone to overthinking.
Lu Zheng’s expression darkened; the things his grandmother did still provoked anger in him to this day.
Even his grandfather, enraged and in fury, had hit his grandmother.
He deeply knew that with ti, his grandmother would likely revert to her old ways.
Lin Xia’s conflicted worries were clear in his eyes.
Honestly, he felt heartache.
It was his family’s actions that robbed Lin Xia of her sense of security, making her anxious.
“Wife! Our life is our own! No matter whether it’s a boy or a girl in your belly, they are our children, and none of them have the right to criticize or treat our children badly!
If they really say so nasty things or do sothing bad just because we have two daughters, then we can just keep our distance from them, close our door, and live our own happy life!”
Lu Zheng’s forceful words temporarily soothed Lin Xia’s troubled emotions.
Feeling a bit embarrassed, she blinked and asked him, “Do I seem unlike myself now?”
Originally, she would never complain to Lu Zheng about his family.
Lu Zheng reached out to stroke her cheek, unable to suppress a smile, “No matter how you change, you are still my wife! I love the changes in you now, I am your man, who else should you share your feelings and worries with if not ? Rember to keep it this way in the future!”
Lin Xia smiled sweetly, “Okay! As long as you don’t find annoying!” She then touched her stomach, “I think I didn’t eat enough!”
Lu Zheng affectionately tweaked her nose, “Silly wife! Then eat! I’ll eat with you!”
