Husbands Lovely Wife - Chapter 97
Holding her other hand he also started supporting her while asking “Honey, why did you come down so early? You should have rested a little more. Did you forgot the doctor said you need a lot of rest”
Glaring at her husband Grandma Qing replied, “Is this still early? they will be here in next ten minutes. Do you want me to show them how weak I am. Shut up and take me down?”
“No No honey, you aren’t weak….you are so strong, see you also came down with your own decision…” appeased grandpa Qing while helping Grandma Qing with some water.
“What is been made for dinner?” asked grandma Qing
“I have asked Mrs Zhi and made all of Zhi Ruo’s favorite dishes.” answered mother Qing smiling widely and waiting for praise from her mother in law.
Slapping her thigh lightly grandma Qing also praised Mother Qing, “That’s like my daughter in law, always working smartly. I wonder how my dumb son was able to fool such a smart and a beautiful girl.”
“Mom, why am I dumb while she is smart?” asked Father Qing with a pout and thought ‘Everytime, everytime, I will be criticized. Even if I breath they ask me why. Now I am also a father in law, I should fight for my rights. yes….’
“Because she gave me Qing Shan. What did you give me?” answered Grandma Qing while holding Mother Qing’s hand and caressing it.
Before Father Qing could retort or speak another word he was shot daggers by Grandpa Qing. The expression was clearly saying, “Dare you speak against my wife”
After exactly ten minutes, Qing Shan and Zhi Ruo arrived and greeted everyone.
“Come child, come and sit besides grandma.” saying this grandma Qing patted the empty space besides her.
Following Zhi Ruo Qing Shan was just about to sit besides Zhi Ruo when he saw his mother grabbing the seat and gesturing him to go away.
‘So, this is how dad always felt’ thinking Qing Shan gave a pitiful look to his father, who was grinning from ear to ear while watching his son’s misery.
“Seems you went for shopping.” asked Mother Qing.
Nodding Zhi Ruo was about to speak when Grandma Qing said, “Zhi Ruo, make sure to drill a hole in your husband’s pocket whenever you go shopping.”
“Yes Zhi Ruo, always make sure that the bills should be sky high. That is the first duty of being a wife.” added Mother Qing
smiling at their suggestion, Zhi Ruo relaxed a little.
After talking a little bit about random things Zhi Ruo spoke hesitatingly, “Mom, grandmom, father, grandfather, actually…..”
“Yes Zhi Ruo, what happened?” asked grandma Qing wondering what would make Zhi Ruo hesitant
“Did this brat bully you?” added Mother Qing with anger evident all over her face.
“No, not that….” answered Zhi Ruo while shaking her head
“Actually, today we came here to discuss something.” said Zhi Ruo while observing everyone’s expressions.
“Go ahead and tell us child. Don’t hesitate, you are our daughter now and we will support you all that we can.” explained Grandfather Qing to Zhi Ruo after getting the cue from his wife.
“actually, …that…I had joined a job.” said Zhi Ruo gathering all of her courage with nervousness written all over her face.
“JOB” Exclaimed everyone except Qing Shan and Zhi Ruo.
