Chapter 111: Birthday Banquet, Constant Turmoil
Because of pregnancy, Shi Xinliang felt that he had almost become a special protected animal, with special nutritious meals for three meals a day, almost nothing to do, and he had to accept his mother-in-law's cold greetings every day, and his life was quite free.
After a period of conditioning, Shi Yan has also improved a lot. A large part of Sututu's child's medical expenses were concealed under Zheng Weixi's instructions, and she could afford the rest of the share, and it seemed that everything was developing in a good direction.
However, there are always some people who will come to disturb the peaceful life with a haunting ghost.
Mu Yifei's birthday banquet was not grand, and only a few good friends were invited, including Su Qiu's mother and daughter, whom Shi Xinliang did not want to see the most.
Under the pretext that she was uncomfortable, she left early.
The lights were bright, and she held on to the handrail and walked up the stairs cautiously.
Her child, in fact, no one needs to be reminded, she is more nervous than anyone else, for fear that there will be the slightest mistake.
When I was about to reach the second floor, I felt that my legs and feet were sore, it should be because I had just stood for a long time, and my steps couldn't help but slow down, and I was a little surprised when I saw Su Qiuwen coming from the corner of the stairs on the second floor.
On the first floor of the villa is Shen Qinghao's bedroom, dining room and living room, as well as Zheng Weixi's study when he was working at home, as well as Wei'an's residence and playing place, while the second floor is the bedroom and gym of the couple and Mu Yifei. It stands to reason that as a guest, Su Qiuwen shouldn't be here.
Before and after people, Shi Xinliang didn't want to have any intersection with her, her face was pale, she hung her head, just ignored, counted the remaining seven or eight steps, and walked up step by step, but she was careful in her heart - I don't know why, this woman made her feel dangerous widowhood for no reason.
"Sister-in-law, why don't you play?" didn't seem to notice her indifference and alienation at all, Su Qiuwen greeted her with a bright smile: "It is said that pregnant people are easy to get tired, and it's good to rest more." ”
Shi Xinliang still didn't look up, and said lightly: "Why are you upstairs?"
ruthlessly let out the doubts in her heart, between her and her, there is no need to hide and tuck, is there a third person here, so there is no need to have any scruples.
Su Qiuwen's face changed, something flashed in her eyes, but then she squeezed out a smile again, as if she couldn't hear the hostility in her words at all.
"Auntie asked me to come up and get something. ”
Shi Xinliang noticed that she was holding a box of candy that Mu Yifei brought back from abroad a few days ago, and she also had a box in her own house, so she recognized the package - it turned out that she went upstairs for this.
It seems that Mu Yifei has completely lost the suspicion between her and her under the bombardment of this woman's sugar-coated cannonball.
seems to be a cold-blooded and ruthless strong woman, sometimes she also misses her old feelings after watching it, and it is not surprising, after all, Su Qiu's mother is her best friend.
"Oh. Gently spat out a word, walked past her, and walked straight to his room at the end of the hallway.
"Sister-in-law, are you still holding a grudge against me?" Su Qiuwen stopped in front of her.
Hold a grudge, not exactly, as a rival in love, she has lost the capital worthy of her care, after being together for so long, Shi Xinliang already clearly knows that Zheng Weixi does not have her in his heart at all, it was, it is, and it will be in the future.
If there is a woman who makes her linger all the time, then that person should be Qinglan, not her Su Qiuwen, she doesn't have this capital.
"Why should I hold a grudge against you, and what are you to me?"
Shi Xin looked at her coldly, and a sentence rushed out of her mouth, I don't know why, she also wanted to say a few perfunctory polite words to her on the surface, but when she looked at her aggrieved face, she felt disgusting for no reason, and she couldn't say anything she wanted to say.
The intuition she gave her was that she was a wicked person with a honey-bellied mouth and a sword belly, and was uneasy about the good-natured.
Su Qiu's eyes flashed with anger, and she had swept away the pity she had seen before, and there was a trace of disdain on her lips.
Finally, are you going to show the fox's tail - Shi Xinliang smiled at her expression that instantly became hideous, and somehow she was in a good mood.
But the unexpected happened.
Su Qiu's expression returned to the same in an instant, and she looked like she was hurt: "Sister-in-law, I have apologized to you more than once, why do you still hold on to the past, even if you hate me again, it must be for the sake of Auntie and Brother Wei Xi's face, don't treat me like this, what do you want me to do to forgive me, kneel down and beg you?"
Shi Xin was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Okay, then you can kneel, but even then, I'm not sure if I will forgive you."
She couldn't understand why she was acting again so quickly, but she could guess why.
Although the footsteps behind her were slow and calm, it was not without a sound, it was the footsteps of a single person, and she naturally knew it.
She just wants to see if this man will believe the words of the woman in front of him, and whether he will choose to stand on his side - she has always suffered from losing his feelings for her, and after Sututu's incident, she is even more unsure of his thoughts, sometimes she wants to talk to him, he is always busy, and people are rare to see, she suspects that she is pregnant and cranky, on the other hand, she also suspects that he is deliberately avoiding herself.
Speaking of returning to it, it's not because he's not sure how much he has feelings for him.
Without love as the foundation of marriage, who will have a full sense of security?
"Cold-hearted, are you too much?"
Behind him, the sound of footsteps approached, and a deep male voice sounded, which suddenly shattered the smile on Shi Xinliang's face, and replaced it with a full of astringency.
She saw Su Qiu's slightly raised eyebrows, that kind of smug look, needless to say.
It was like a huge stone in her heart, which made her so sullen that she couldn't breathe for a while, and she couldn't even speak, only a cold self-deprecating smile hung on her lips little by little, for him and for herself.
"Brother Wei Xi, it's nothing, I think my sister-in-law misunderstood me too deeply. ”
is still a gentle and soft tone, which reminds Shi Xinliang of the words "fox spirit".
"Don't you know how to tolerate people, why do I think you are more ignorant than you are?"
The footsteps paused behind her, and the smell of grass and trees on his body had already hit, but Shi Xinliang only felt a chill all over her body, which made her subconsciously wrap her thin dress.
She's not sensible, she can't tolerate people?
Biting his lip and holding back the astringency in his eyes, Shi Xinliang quickly passed the person in front of him, and went straight to his bedroom without looking back, his steps were surprisingly fast.
She seemed to hear the footsteps of the man behind her, but it should be just an illusion, how could it be?
In his eyes, when did she really exist?
For the sake of such a woman, what does it mean to blame his wife?
She walked in a hurry, and she didn't want to be seen by others in her embarrassed appearance, so she only cared about her feet, but she didn't pay attention to a small figure that bumped out of a room next to her.
Seeing this, the two people are about to inevitably collide.
Pregnant for two or three months, it is the easiest time to miscarry, and Shi Xinliang's physique is not the kind of strong key, the doctor has repeatedly told her to pay attention everywhere and avoid all collisions, so as not to hurt the child and cause irreparable consequences.
When he reacted, it was too late to dodge, Shi Xinliang was stunned in place, and he couldn't do any defensive measures.
The boy in front of him is, of course, Vian.
But he shouldn't be here, the children's toys are all downstairs, what is he doing here for no reason, why didn't the nanny come along?
Shi Xinliang's mind flickered with many kinds of speculations, and he also thought of Su Qiuwen, who was also not very suitable to appear on the second floor just now, but he couldn't figure out any clue.
In a trance, the boy's sturdy body was already able to hit her lower abdomen, and at the last moment, a pair of arms in front of her came over at the right time, and the iron tongs generally isolated the boy to the side, and the child's body was hurt without accident, his small lips were pursed, his brows were tangled, and he went to the front brother and sister-in-law with hostility, with a face of questioning.
"Why did it hurt me, she suddenly came over and hit me"
Shi Xinliang stood in place in shock, looking at Aunt Su, the nanny who hurried out of the gym, in a daze, she was explaining with an uneasy face: "Wei An recently fell in love with his wife's treadmill, and he had to come over to play just now, and after playing for a while, I said that he should not mess with a pair of gloves that his wife left here, he was in a hurry, so he ran out, it was me who was not good, and I didn't take good care of the child." ”
It's so simple to not look at children - but it sounds so reasonable, after all, a child of seven or eight years old, it is his nature to be willful and naughty.
"Pay attention in the future, I pay you such a high public fund, just trust you to take care of him, don't let me down. Zheng Weixi was obviously shocked and angry by what had just happened, and rarely lost his temper at Aunt Su.
Aunt Su Nuo continued to speak, looking very honest and honest.
"It was she who hit me, why don't you say she doesn't have long eyes when she walks" Vian looked hostile: "You are all bad people, I hate you"
Aunt Su nervously pulled him away, refusing to let him continue to say things that should not have been said at his age.
I don't know why, this child's mood has become more and more bad recently, and from time to time he will play with Mu Yifei and Shi Xinliang, and it is the first time that he has made a face in front of Zheng Weixi - he is only normal in front of Zheng Qinghao, lively and well-behaved like a normal child.
Shi Xinliang broke away from the man's hand and went directly into the bedroom, subconsciously, she wanted to slam the door vigorously and isolate the man, but she couldn't do it, her strength couldn't match his, so she had to follow up with him.
"Why are you alright?"
She wanted to go straight into the bathroom to wash and sleep, but someone pulled her over and forced her to look at him.
There was anger and sadness in her eyes, and a faint smile on his face.
"What's wrong, angry?" he rubbed his rough fingers on her face, with some pity in his eyes: "Why is it that after pregnancy, it is a child's temper." ”
When you are pregnant, what is the child's temper?
Shi Xinliang tried to open his hand, but instead gave him a big palm and wrapped it firmly: "That's what I said, on that occasion just now, she must be a guest, and she can't hold it on her mother's face if she makes a big fuss, are you really serious?"
It seems to be very reasonable, very knowledgeable, and it also verifies her unreasonable troubles in disguise?
Shi Xinliang turned his face away from looking at him, and snorted coldly: "Yes, I shouldn't take it seriously, I'm not sensible, I don't tolerate people, isn't it better for you to go to her, what are you doing with me?"
"It's not that I'm worried about you. ”
He half-embraced her body, imprisoning her from a chance to escape, warm breath squirting in her ears
, a burst of crispy numbness made her whole body stiffen instantly.
I have to admit that she has no resistance to this man......
Did he say that he didn't worry about himself and came with him, so that means he cared about himself very much?
The warmth in my heart overflowed all of a sudden, and most of the resentment in my stomach just now disappeared in an instant.
But when I thought about it, I felt that something was wrong.
"Are you worried or I'm not worried about the child, you might as well make it clear, if you're just nervous about this child, I don't think there's any need to tell this lie, I know this very well, you haven't loved me, just to make grandpa comfortable to take me into the door, nervous children are also because of grandpa, right. ”
Zheng Weixi couldn't help laughing, since she was pregnant, it seems that she has changed a lot, and her heart is a lot smaller.
He had said more than once that he had grown to like her, but it seemed that she had never believed him thoroughly.
If he chose to get married only for the sake of his children, then how could he choose her who was so different from him?
sighed: "Cold-hearted, are you so unconfident in yourself, why can't I like you, I am indeed nervous, child, but it is the same for you, is it that the company has been busy snubbing you recently, so you have cranky thoughts?"
Shi Xinliang instinctively wanted to shake his head, but he felt that he was going to say everything in his heart.
Could it be that I think too much, and I am really making trouble?
But that Su Qiuwen didn't have good intentions at all, Mu Yifei brought her to block herself, and he Zheng Weixi actually welcomed her very much, in this family, there are a few people who care about her feelings - isn't it ridiculous.
"Actually, my heart is cold, I also hate Su Qiuwen as much as you do, but her mother and my mother have had a good relationship for so many years, and I can't interfere in the affairs of my elders, so I just treat it as giving me face, and I will have a better attitude when I see her in the future, okay?" Zheng Weixi's tone was almost a little low, rare softness: "The scene just now, if I see my mother, she can't hang up so face-saving people, maybe what will happen, I really don't want you to have a stiff fight with her." ”
It turned out that this was the real reason why he was calm, not because of Su Qiuwen, but because of Mu Yifei, because of her.
She has always tried her best to harmonize the relationship between her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and after she became pregnant, all this became extremely easy, Mu Yifei's attitude towards her turned 180 degrees, but if as he said, the situation just now was correct, then the relationship between them was bound to be further tense.
It was indeed her, on the spur of the moment.
"Do you know, just now I saw that I almost bumped into you, how scared I was, don't think I'm just nervous, in fact, in my eyes, you are the same as a child. ”
Shi Xinliang felt that his eyes were a little astringent, just because he said "She is the same as the child".
It's scary to think about the scene just now, if it really hits, it's likely to lead to a miscarriage, right?
But such a young child, even if he gets into some trouble, who will blame him too much?
Zheng Weixi sighed: "I don't know why, I'm always very worried about our children, I'm very worried, I heard that there is a drinking party at home, I'm worried that there are too many people, you can't take care of yourself, and rush back early - look, your husband and I have telepathy, I bumped into this incident as soon as I came back"
Shi Xinliang's heart couldn't help but move, he was always worried about this child, how could she not be like this, she would have nightmares every day, her heart always seemed to be bottomless, and she always felt that there was a pair of invisible hands that were trying to take away her child all the time.
There was a commotion downstairs, the sound of people lighting candles and cutting cakes.
"Let's go down" Shi Xinliang retracted his thoughts, and although he was very reluctant to go down and see some people, he still proposed.
"No, I'm too lazy to move, I don't want to join in the fun. Zheng Weixi kissed her on the lips, and reluctantly let go of her: "Go take a bath, if Mom asks, I'll say you're uncomfortable." ”
There was no need to go downstairs, Shi Xinliang's mood improved, and she planned to wash and go to sleep, so late, she was really sleepy, but just walked outside the bathroom door, and before she could open the door, the mobile phone lying on the table was shouting......
