Chapter 272: Swearing
"Mom, it won't. The water was boiling just now, and I was afraid that the porphyrium would come out and damage the gas stove. ”
Liping carefully explained to her mother-in-law.
"Ouch, if it's bad, it's bad! How much does a gas stove cost? At most, buy another one, so what does it matter? You're different! You get up from the couch, lift your legs and run into the kitchen, and if you get a tire, you can't make up for it! Silly girl! ”
As the mayor's wife spoke, she stretched out her hand and patted the back of her daughter-in-law's hand very lovingly.
Then, the mayor's wife turned around and asked Zhang Xueru and his wife:
"In-laws, Liping is pregnant, you know?"
"Huh——? Liping, do you have a child now? ”
As soon as Zhang Xueru heard this, he immediately shouted happily.
Before that, although he suspected that his daughter had slept with Mengdu before marrying Mengdu, and she might be pregnant! But that's just speculation after all. Now, having received the exact letter from the mouth of the mayor's wife, Zhang Xueru couldn't help but shout loudly.
"Oh, there's a baby, Liping has a baby!"
When Liping's mother heard the news, she happily repeated this sentence next to her.
"Two in-laws, do you know why I came to your house today? The main purpose of my coming here is to tell my two in-laws the good news! Of course, at the same time, I also came to see the two of you. ”
While explaining her intention to Zhang Xueru and his wife, the mayor's wife couldn't suppress the joy in her heart, and stroked the back of her daughter-in-law's hand and said:
"Let me tell you, not only does Liping have a baby, but she is two or three months pregnant! In the future, when Liping returns to her parents' home, you must remember that you must not let her be tired, let alone let her have fetal gas! If there aren't many things going on at home, it's best not to let her do anything! ”
"That's, that's a must! Mother-in-law, you can put 10,000 hearts, from today onwards, after Liping returns to her parents' house, her mother and I will definitely not let her do anything! Just raise her like a princess! Do you think that's good? ”
Zhang Xueru immediately made a clear statement to the mayor's wife.
"Yes, don't let her do anything! It's the best! ”
The mayor's wife slapped her thigh with a smile, and then said to Zhang Xueru and his wife in a mysterious tone:
"I said in-laws, let me tell you, in the past two days, I also took Liping to see a master, and specially asked that master to show Liping a look, forget the hexagram! The master said, said that the child in Liping's belly is a boy! ”
"Boys? Heck, that's great! ”
Zhang Xueru saw the happy appearance of the mayor's wife and knew that she was eager to hold her grandson!
Because he knew that the eldest son of the Wang family, Jiandu, and the eldest daughter-in-law, Yalan, had a daughter in front of them; Now, Mengdu is married, Mayor Wang and his wife must hope that the young couple can give birth to a grandson for the Wang family!
Now, seeing that the wish to hold her grandson is about to come true, can the mayor's wife not be happy?
As long as the mayor's wife is happy, and Mayor Wang is happy, then Liping's supremacy in the Wang family will become unshakable!
And as long as Liping's position in the Wang family is consolidated and strengthened, it goes without saying that I, Zhang Xueru, will naturally have a better life in the future!
Thinking of this, Zhang Xueru immediately celebrated with the mayor's wife.
However, in order to verify whether Liping was pregnant with a "boy" in her belly, Zhang Xueru also specially asked her mother-in-law to ask:
"Oh, mother-in-law, just now, you said that you asked the master to show Liping the face, and you have a hexagram?"
"That's right! Absolutely true! I personally took Liping and Mengdu together. But remember, it's a big secret! ”
The mayor's wife said, deliberately glanced at Zhang Xueru and his wife, and said with a serious face:
"I took them with me yesterday. Now, only the five of us know about it. I didn't tell anyone else. I didn't even tell him about his father. ”
"Huh? Mayor Wang still doesn't know about this? Mother-in-law, such a big happy event, why don't you tell your father-in-law? That's a great thing! ”
Zhang Xueru asked with some surprise.
"Yes, you're right, it's great news! However, father-in-law, you don't know how old-fashioned Mengdu's father is, no matter what it is, he knows how to stress principles and party spirit! If we let him know that we go to a master to look at the face and tell fortunes, I don't know how he will criticize us! ”
The mayor's wife shook her head at Zhang Xueru and said the reason why she didn't tell Vice Mayor Wang the good news.
"Oh, mother-in-law, you are still thoughtful. However, as a father-in-law, he is one of the main leaders of the city government and a senior cadre of the Communist Party. With him, it is not possible to speak without principles. If you don't object to superstition, that's even more inadequate! My father-in-law also has the difficulties of my father-in-law! ”
After listening to his mother's explanation, Zhang Xueru praised the mayor's wife for considering the problem thoroughly, and at the same time, he put himself in the position of Vice Mayor Wang and said a few "fair words".
"So, in this matter, I don't want to embarrass my father, so I won't tell him. Now, I can remind you two in-laws, about the fact that I took Liping and Mengdu to ask the master to see the face, no matter when, you can't tell my family Wang! Remember, right? ”
The mayor's wife said, and once again warned Zhang Xueru and his wife with a serious expression.
"Okay, mother-in-law, you can rest assured! In this matter, we will not reveal a word to our father-in-law. Whoever leaks his mouth will have his tongue cut out! ”
In order to express his determination to the mayor's wife, Zhang Xueru raised his hand to make a promise to his mother as if he had sworn an oath to a great man.
"Oh, my father-in-law, I absolutely believe in you. You don't have to swear. ”
The mayor's wife nodded with satisfaction and smiled:
"I came over today, in addition to telling my in-laws the good news, there is also a layer of meaning, that is, I hope that from today onwards, both of us will focus on Liping and protect her in an all-round way, I don't know if the two in-laws agree?"
"Is this still negotiable? In the event of such a great event, Liping is the key protection object of our two families. What is it called? It's called 'two dumb people sleeping on one end - nothing to say'! ”
Zhang Xueru danced excitedly and made a statement to the mayor's wife again.
"Mother-in-law, don't worry! We will definitely take care of Liping. ”
Zhang Xueru's wife, who had been standing next to him and didn't speak, would also whisper to the mayor's wife.
"Okay, then we're done!"
The mayor's wife nodded with a smile, and while she was happy, she reached out and picked up the teacup on the coffee table, took a sip of tea, and after a moment's pause, she turned to Liping and Mengdu and asked:
"Liping, Mengdu, it's rare for you to come back, do you want to sit with the two adults for a while?"
"Oh, don't sit down. Shall we go back together? Today, I still have a date with someone else! ”
As soon as Yumedu heard his mother's words, he knew that the mayor's wife was ready to go home, so he made it clear that he wanted to go back with his mother.
"No, it's still early, are you leaving? I said, mother-in-law, today, you are going to have lunch at home, right? ”
Zhang Xueru also heard that the mayor's wife had the intention of leaving, and immediately retained her.
"Oh, no. My father-in-law, my nanny, has already prepared lunch, so you don't have to worry about it. Two in-laws, if you're okay, let's go first? Oh, Liping, what do you think? ”
When the mayor's wife said this, she immediately thought of Liping, so she hurried to ask for her opinion.
Since she learned that Liping was pregnant with a boy in her belly, the mayor's wife treated this little daughter-in-law like a cream cake in the palm of her hand, for fear that she would accidentally break it, break it, and get dirty.
"Mom, since we're here together, let's go back together."
Liping saw that her mother-in-law meant to go home with her, so she answered her mother-in-law obediently, and then turned to Zhang Xueru and his wife and said:
"Dad, Mom, I'll go back with Mom and Dream first. I'll see you another day. Take care of yourselves! ”
"Okay, Ping'er, don't worry. Your mother and I are not children anymore, we will pay attention. Hey, mother-in-law, Mengdu, will you sit for a while? ”
Zhang Xueru saw that he couldn't keep his mother and Mengdu, but he still made a sincere gesture of retention.
"Well, my father-in-law, we are not far away, we can move around at any time, so don't be polite. Two in-laws, let's go back first! ”
After the mayor's wife finished speaking, she decisively got up from the sofa and strode towards the door of the living room.
Before going out, she told Zhang Xueru again and said:
"Two in-laws, please remember, before giving birth, if Liping occasionally goes back to her parents' house, you must not let her do things!"
"Mother-in-law, you can put 10,000 hearts! From today onwards, no matter when Liping comes home, I promise not to let her do a penny. Not only that, but we will also make offerings to the Bodhisattva like a god! ”
Zhang Xueru once again made a promise to his mother-in-law in an oath-like tone.
