Chapter 703: Self-Inflicted Cleverness
"Old lady, this essential oil has been taken." While the few people were talking, Sister Yu put the essential oil box on the table.
"Grandma, what is this going to do?" Li Ning asked pretending not to know.
"I haven't slept very well recently, so I feel that my shoulders and neck are a little heavy, and it just so happened that Yao Yu said that she would massage and said to try to press it for me." Old Madam Shen replied.
"Miss Yao will know a lot." Li Ning tugged at the corner of Yao Yu's lips.
"I've only scratched the surface. I heard people say that newborns often need professional soothing massage methods, so I went to learn it, and by the way, I also learned some massage techniques, I hope the old lady doesn't think I'm stupid. Yao Yu pretended to be humble.
Having said this, the three of them took the child and went to the Xiaohua Hall to sit together, Li Ning was watching the child, and Yao Yu was rubbing the shoulders and neck of Mrs. Shen.
"Xiao Ning, you're almost four months old now, have you gone for a check-up to see if it's a boy or a girl?" Old Madam Shen asked suddenly.
Li Ning smiled, "Not yet, grandma." However, Mu Zhi and I both think that whether it is a boy or a girl, as long as the baby is healthy and safe, we are very happy with you. ”
Old Madam Shen smiled faintly, "That's true, but this treasure is hidden in a box, and I always want to take a look at it first." ”
At Renhe Hospital, there are many couples who want to know the gender of their babies every day, and although most couples are just trying to be the first to know the answer, it is not excluded that some couples are in a family because of the preference for sons.
As a doctor, Li Ning feels that it doesn't matter whether she knows it or not, whether it is a boy or a girl, it is her treasure.
But Old Madam Shen's words had already reached this point, and Li Ning immediately smiled lightly, "Then I'll take the time to take a look recently." ”
Old Madam Shen smiled with satisfaction and nodded.
Yao Yuzheng kneaded her shoulders for Mrs. Shen, listened to the words of the two and continued: "It would be great if Li Ning could give birth to a girl, so that a boy and a girl in the family would have the best of both worlds." ”
As soon as Yao Yu's voice fell, Li Ning teased the baby's hand slightly, and even Old Madam Shen frowned.
For ordinary families, boys and girls really don't matter, but for a big family like the Shen family, the meaning of boys and girls is far apart.
Besides, now that the big room and the second room have been fighting openly and secretly, Yao Yu's identity saying this will inevitably cause people to wonder what she is thinking.
Li Ning's expression seemed to be smiling, and his eyes were faintly silent.
After a moment of silence, Old Madam Shen suddenly smiled, looked at Li Ning and said, "Whether Xiao Ning is born a boy or a girl, they are the eldest sons of my Shen family's generation, and they are all the treasures of my Shen family." ”
"If the baby hears your grandmother's words, he doesn't know how warm his heart is." Li Ning smiled and answered.
Yao Yu suddenly found that the atmosphere between the three of them was a little awkward, and after a pause, he realized that he had just said something that he shouldn't have said.
But as soon as the words came out, it was naturally impossible to take them back.
Yao Yu suddenly felt a little panicked, worried that Li Ning and Old Madam Shen had misunderstood her, but she didn't know how to explain it.
"Actually, it's good for both men and women. Li Ning is still so young, it is the best time, she can give birth to two or three babies, and then she will have all her sons and daughters. Yao Yu hesitated for a while, and suddenly said with a smile.
But as soon as these words came out, I felt that it sounded awkward. I felt that I couldn't come back from this, so my smile became a little embarrassed.
"Then I can borrow Miss Yao's auspicious words, hoping that my children will be complete." Li Ning smiled generously and did not bother with Yao Yu.
As soon as Yao Yu heard Li Ning's words, he immediately nodded in response; "Of course, Li Ning is blessed at first glance."
"Grandma, Miss Yao is very comfortable pressing for you. Feel better? Li Ning looked at Old Madam Shen and changed the subject.
Yao Yu was behind, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
"It's not bad, I'm feeling more relaxed." Old Madam Shen bowed slightly.
"If you don't dislike the old lady, I will often come to give you a massage in the future." Yao Yu took the opportunity to show goodwill.
"That's good, you're not the one my Shen family invited to do things, it's okay to bring your children over and walk around occasionally."
Old Madam Shen's tone was indifferent, and Yao Yu was not sure what Old Madam Shen was thinking under these words.
"Usually Xun Ling is too busy and can't come over often, I will do some filial piety to you for him, it should be."
There is nothing wrong with Yao Yu's words, and it also seems that she is well-behaved and sensible as the daughter-in-law of the Shen family.
But when Old Madam Shen heard this, she slowly closed her eyes, and she didn't respond.
Yao Yu stood behind Old Madam Shen and couldn't see her face, but she didn't hear a response, and she was a little panicked in her heart.
And Li Ning sat opposite Old Madam Shen and saw it clearly.
When Yao Yu said that he wanted to do his filial piety for Shen Xun, a trace of strange emotions obviously flashed in Old Madam Shen's eyes.
The emotion was not disgust, let alone disdain, but simply seemed to be a little displeased.
But I don't know why her old man is unhappy.
"Old lady, dinner is ready." The butler approached the front.
"Alright, let's all go to dinner. Yao Yu also worked hard. ”
"Old lady, I'm not hard."
Yao Yu smiled, but saw Old Madam Shen get up and walk out directly, without looking at her.
In an instant, the smile on Yao Yu's face froze, looking very embarrassed.
Li Ning pretended not to see it, but slowly got up and smiled lightly at Yao Yu, "Let's go, Miss Yao, go to dinner." ”
There were only three people sitting at the long dining table, and there were a lot of food with different tastes on the table.
The dishes close to Mrs. Shen are mostly light vegetarian, Yao Yu's side is some nourishing things, and Li Ning's side is a gathering of various flavors, and the amount of each dish is very small, but there are many dishes.
Mrs. Shen said: "I heard Lao Zheng say, you like to eat a little bit of everything when you eat at home recently, so let the kitchen prepare more to see if there is anything you have to eat." ”
"Grandma bothered. I wanted to come to you for a casual meal, but I still made you work hard. Li Ning was a little moved in his heart.
"As long as you and the baby in your belly are happy to eat, don't say these ordinary things, grandma will prepare whatever you want to eat."
Yao Yu sat on the side, looking at Old Madam Shen's loving smile, she could understand that Old Madam Shen's love for Li Ning, her granddaughter-in-law, was not just because of the child in her belly.
Yao Yu was holding on to chopsticks, eating things that were light but could provide better breast milk for the child, and for a moment, she was suddenly very jealous of Li Ning.
She also hoped that Old Madam Shen's attitude towards her would be the same as that towards Li Ning, maybe only half of it......
