Give the child a ho?
Shen Manting smiled awkwardly and said, “Well, since you’re back now, please look after the child while I unpack my belongings.”
Just as she finished speaking, she retreated and hurried out of the room.
Mrs. Shen was slightly startled.
She turned around to glance at Shen Longyue and realized that he was staring at her with a reproachful look. He chided, “Look at you. You’re getting ahead of yourself.”
Mrs. Shen felt offended. She pursed her lips and rebuked, “Aren’t you thinking the sa, too?”
“Indeed, I’m hoping for the sa as you are, but Manting has only just returned, after all. There’s always ti for expressing your intentions later.” Shen Longyue reached out and patted his wife’s back. “Luo’an has made many mistakes in the past. I’m afraid she might not be able to forgive him as of yet. Give her so ti.”
“How much ti does she need?” Mrs. Shen felt even more distressed. “Luo’an is an adult now. They even have a child together...”
She lowered her voice and whispered, “Now that she has moved in with us, what if the neighbors see her and think she’s our daughter? Won’t they think that she and Luo’an are in an improper relationship?”
The more Mrs. Shen thought about this, the more anxious she felt. Staring at Shen Longyue, she urged, “Hubby, I think this matter should be settled as soon as possible. It’s not my business to worry about this, but Luo’an is your son, your mother’s grandson. Even if you’re not worried about him, your mother will definitely be concerned.”
Mrs. Shen had a valid point. The sa issue had occurred to Shen Longyue.
He frowned and replied, “Luo’an must have his plans for asking Manting to return here as a nanny. We’ll leave him to his arrangents, for only he knows best. Let’s wait for Luo’an to solve the dilemma.”
“Mother will never accept this.”
“I’ll talk to Mother and leave it to her to consider the matter. She’s coming in a few days, isn’t she? We’ll talk about this then.”
Although Mrs. Shen was not quite satisfied with the reply, she knew that Shen Luo’an’s temperant was the sa as Shen Longyue’s.
He must have thoroughly weighed the matter before carrying out his plans.
She would do better to not interfere in any way.
By the ti the couple reached an agreent, Shen Manting had already started to tidy up her small room.
The room was small, but at least it was independently partitioned off.
She lay down on the bedding, turned on the light, and settled into her new living environnt.
She had traveled to a lot of places lately. Although the room was small, it was in decent condition.
The infant seed to have an acute sense of timing. As soon as Shen Manting had finished sorting her luggage, she heard the infant crying, as if on cue.
She quickly washed her hands and hurried over to hold him.
Mrs. Shen had already cradled the infant in her arms and was coaxing him. When she saw Manting approaching, she smiled at her, looking genuinely delighted. She offered, “Change his diapers, Manting. Maybe the baby pooped.”
“All right,” Shen Manting answered. Then, she looked at the ti and added, “It’s ti for his dication. I’ll feed him so milk first.”
Mrs. Shen felt even happier.
Although Manting was unwilling to marry Luo’an, she was nevertheless the mother of the child. No nanny would ever be able to replicate the ticulousness she demonstrated in taking care of the infant.
Give her so ti. Longyue was right.
Rushing the matter wouldn’t help.
When Manting had finished fussing over the child, Nanny He had already prepared their al.
Shen Zhilie and his wife didn’t co ho for dinner, while Shen Luo’an couldn’t leave the laboratory, so only a few mbers of the family partook in the al.
Shen Manting was persuaded to sit at the dining table to have dinner with them. She used to dine together with the family often, but now that she had returned to them with a different status, she felt awkward and uneasy.
