Chapter 137 - 138: Trying on Clothes (2)
After Yang Mogui finished speaking, she stood aside and watched Lu Weixi drink the bowl of medicinal soup before instructing Aunt Hao to clear it away. Before she left she said, “From now on, you’re not allowed to take contraceptives, it’s harmful to the body. Although the now goal is to have a child, it’s inevitable that you’ll want a second one later on, so better to prepare early.”
What? They don’t just want one child? They want a second one? It’s a relief that Mrs. Yang doesn’t demand a son or daughter, otherwise, it would be even more annoying.
Lu Weixi took a step forward intending to say something, but Qin Zhiyou pulled her back by the wrist, placed himself in front of her, and gently said, “Mom, it’s late, you should rest. You wouldn’t want to disturb our marital communication, right?”
Yang Mogui took a glance at her son before leaving for her room.
Qin Zhiyou waited for his mother to close her door before calmly leading Lu Weixi back to their room.
Once the door was closed, Lu Weixi couldn’t help but burst out, “Zhiyou, isn’t your mother being a bit too aggressive?”
Qin Zhiyou did not expect Mrs. Yang Mogui to act so swiftly. When he was at his mansion, he had only mentioned once that he wanted Lu Weixi’s body to be taken care of. In no time, she had everything arranged. Not only did she prepare the medicine, but she also moved into their West Mountain villa and reportedly bought new clothes for Weixi?
You see, after Qin Zhiyou and Lu Weixi moved to the West Mountain villa, although they prepared a bedroom for Yang Mogui, she only stayed for a day pertaining it was too far away from the city, inconvenient for traveling, and had no friends around, so she left promptly.
Yang Mogui and Lu Weixi didn’t share any emotional bond. Back when Lu Weixi was dating Qin Zhigu, her relationship with Kong Jie was good. As a result, it undoubtedly soured her relations with Mrs. Yang. Later, even when she became Mrs. Yang’s daughter-in-law, the negative first impression persisted with neither party able to change it.
In addition, Yang Mogui often spent a majority of the year outside the country playing around. When she was in the country, she was mostly wandering around. Their relationship remain strained as neither Qin Zhiyou nor Mrs. Yang were outgoing or fond of forming strong relationships with others.
Same was the cause with Lu Weixi, her personality had significantly changed following her family feud. She used to be an extroverted and cheerful person, but everything changed after she had experienced her parents’ divorce and a breakup. Her mother’s illness made her grow up overnight. The hearty laugh that once painted her face was gone. At the same time, she no longer trusted people easily.
It was the same for Qin Zhiyou. His parents always quarreled when they met since he was a child. The situation worsened when his father had an affair. Yang Mogui had a stubborn temperament, and her husband was neglecting her. Although she would not vent her dissatisfaction on her son, she naturally distanced herself emotionally from a son that looked a lot like her husband.
This resentment lasted until his father’s death. His father died during his philandering spree overseas, turning Qin Zhiyou and Yang Mogui into a laughingstock among Yan City’s upper class. Both Mrs. Yang and he had strong self-esteem, so they couldn’t stand being made fun of.
However, look at it now, this mother isn’t completely useless. She can create opportunities for her son, which is rather nice..
