After worrying about it for a long time, Shen Xiaotao asked the housekeeper how to make up for it.
"Make up for it …"
The housekeeper was a little embarrassed. After all, the word "make up" was very suggestive.
"I think he might be too tired from work recently and needs to replenish his energy.
Do you understand what I mean? "
Shen Xiaotao blinked her eyes in anticipation. She couldn't just say that they were preparing for pregnancy, could she?
"How about having some oysters for dinner?"
"Okay, we'll have oysters for dinner."
In fact, Shen Xiaotao didn't like oysters very much, but for the sake of having a baby, she endured it!
When Chi Jiu came back, he saw a table full of oysters, grilled, steamed, and fried. Not only that, but there was also oyster hotpot?
Looking at his little wife's expression that was begging for praise, he felt very complicated.
How weak was he? Did his wife have to tell him so clearly?
"Honey, isn't it a little … exaggerated?"
He really couldn't care less about his desire to survive. The table full of oysters made him feel tired.
"Because I don't know which cooking method you prefer, I asked the chef to make all of them.
Don't be too burdened. Eat whichever you like. "
This coaxing tone made Chi Jiu feel even more tired.
He wasn't against preparing for pregnancy, but it was obvious that he was a little too concerned about Shen Xiaotao's current state.
Chi Jiu even thought that if she couldn't get pregnant, the pressure in her heart would be even heavier. Shen Xiaotao looked carefree, but in fact, she was very thoughtful. She was the type of person who only reported the good news and not the bad.
"Okay."
In order not to let his wife down, he forced himself to eat more.
However, Chi Jiu never expected that one wrong step would lead to many wrong steps. In the following week, Shen Xiaotao made up for him in different ways.
Chi Jiu, who had become a lab rat, really had no place to complain.
Of course, Shen Xiaotao was a very fair person. He was also willing to torture himself.
Unknowingly, a month had passed, and there was still no news at all.
He worked so hard, but there was no result at all. Shen Xiaotao felt very depressed.
In the end, he could only turn to Shen Yujun for help, hoping that she could give him some advice based on her experience.
After listening to Shen Xiaotao's preparations for the past month, Shen Yujun looked at him as if he was looking at a fool.
"Child, when did you become so tight-lipped?
We didn't mention anything about you preparing for pregnancy before.
After a month of torment, you finally remembered your mother? "
Shen Xiaotao pursed his lips after being scolded.
"It's not that I don't want to bother you. I just want you to have a good square dance."
"You're filial now?"
"Mom, why do you make it sound like I'm not filial?"
"Alright, I'm just pitying my son-in-law now, so I'll let you do as you please.
Shen Xiaotao, you really can do whatever you want. Why didn't you listen to me? What are you doing?
What kind of brain does he have? How did he get to university? "
Shen Yujun's tone was simply oppressive.
Shen Xiaotao snorted.
"A dragon will give birth to a dragon, a phoenix will give birth to a phoenix. In any case, I will follow you."
"…"
Shen Yujun thought about it and felt that it was true. Wasn't he scolding himself for his daughter's brain not working well?
"Find a time to make an appointment for a physical examination.
Make sure there's nothing wrong with your body first, then make other preparations. "
Shen Xiaotao suddenly fell silent.
She was just worried that what if there was something wrong with their bodies? What should she do?
Shen Yujun seemed to have seen through her daughter's thoughts and held her daughter's hand.
"Are you afraid that something might happen to one of you?"
"Mom … I mean, what if I can't give birth? What should I do?"
"What should you do? What should you do?"
Shen Yujun's tone was calm, as if Shen Xiaotao's assumption was like her flatulence after eating too much.
"Mom, do you think that if we don't have a child, will …"
"If your biological father and I have you, won't we still get a divorce?"
"…"
Ahem, ahem, this mother was really a werewolf.
"Mom, can we not talk to death?"
Shen Yujun laughed and held Shen Xiaotao in her arms, as if she was still a child, and patted her arm.
"Daughter, you only have so many years to live. You can live however you want.
Don't be stubborn. You have to know what you want first.
It's understandable that you and Jiu want a child after marrying each other.
But if our bodies really don't allow it and we don't have this fate, don't force it.
The important thing is how the two of you will face it.
From a mother's point of view, of course, I hope that you can be accepted no matter what.
However, people had feelings and principles.
You're already an adult. There are many things that you can handle on your own without me telling you.
I believe in you. My daughter is the best. "
Shen Xiaotao couldn't help but cry. All the uneasiness in her heart was instantly comforted by Shen Yujun's gentleness.
Indeed, life was only so long. She should ask herself what kind of life she wanted.
Let nature take its course and don't force it.
"Mom, thank you."
"Yes, I said no, but I want to eat cola chicken wings. You can cook for me tonight."
"…"
She knew that her old lady was very cunning. She knew that she didn't like to work in the kitchen.
But seeing that she had made such a big bowl of chicken soup today, she decided to show off her excellent cooking skills.
Soon, four dishes and one soup were served. They were all Shen Xiaotao's signature home-cooked dishes: cola chicken wings, broccoli with garlic, stir-fried meat with green peppers, cucumber with garlic sauce, and mutton and winter melon soup.
She rarely cooked since she went to university. It was rare for her mother to appoint her today, so she naturally had to show off her skills.
Fortunately, she did well.
"Xiaotao, Gu Xun has been wanting to apologize to you for what happened last time. But he was afraid that you wouldn't want to see him, so he asked me …"
"Uncle Gu, let bygones be bygones. But my position remains the same. Don't feel pressured.
In fact, you and my mother live together. As long as there is no problem between the two of you, nothing else matters. "
Shen Xiaotao's words were not harsh, but she also told Gu Renshou that she didn't forgive many things. She just let it go.
It was unrealistic to expect her and Gu Xun to pretend that nothing had happened.
Not to mention how much trouble he had caused her before, just the fact that he had impure thoughts was enough for Shen Xiaotao to feel that there was no need for them to interact too much.
Not to interfere with each other was the best state.
"Okay, Uncle Gu understands."
"Eat more. My cooking skills are not bad today."
Shen Xiaotao still had a smile on her face, but Gu Renshou sighed secretly.
It seemed that he shouldn't ask too much. This child was determined to draw a clear line between him and his son.
In fact, he asked for it. No wonder others were not magnanimous.
It was good if nothing happened. After all, everyone was still harmonious.
Shen Yujun didn't interrupt. She just immersed herself in her daughter's good cooking.
Her daughter had indeed grown up. She was an adult now and could make good decisions in many matters.
