Chapter 1416: That Way the Child will also be Healthy
Cai Anqi grabbed her hair in frustration and said, “Let’s just order food.”
Ning Shu calmly shrugged her shoulders. “Fine. It’s up to you.”
Cai Anqi felt the blood in her chest surging. Her rage felt pointless in front of the calm Ning Shu, if felt just like a fist hitting cotton.
Cai Anqi was feeling vexed, so she chose the most expensive dishes and ordered more than needed.
Ning Shu said nothing.
When Wang Bo returned from work at night, he saw how frustrated Cai Anqi was and asked, “What’s the matter?”
“I cleaned the entire house by myself today. What do you think is the matter?” Cai Anqi snapped in annoyance.
Wang Bo was a little surprised. Cai Anqi never did housework. Why did she suddenly start?
Wang Bo’s heart warmed up, and so he said, “You’ve worked hard. I’ll give you a massage.”
“No need, I’m too annoyed,” said Cai Anqi angrily.
Wang Bo didn’t mind Cai Anqi’s attitude either. At the very least, Cai Anqi was now treating this house as her own.
After a while, the delivery man arrived. By now, the delivery man and Wang Bo’s family were already familiar with each other. They made friendly conversation while the delivery man handed the food over.
However, when it was time to pay, Cai Anqi sat on the sofa and said nothing.
Ning Shu looked at Cai Anqi and said, “Give him the money.”
“Why should I pay for the food after all the work I did today?” Cai Anqi rolled her eyes. “You’re trying to take money from your daughter-in-law’s pocket every single time. Have you got no shame?”
Wang Bo was worried that Cai Anqi would say something worse, so he hastily took his wallet out and asked the delivery man for the bill.
But because Cai Anqi was feeling bitter for being worked to death today, she had deliberately ordered the most expensive dishes. So when the delivery man quoted more than one thousand yuan, it gave Wang Bo a severe shock.
Wang Bo resentfully looked at the exquisite dishes on the table, but he had no choice but to hand over the money despite his heartache.
Wang Bo’s good mood was destroyed once again. He tightly pursed his lips and frowned. Being the honest and simple man that he was, Wang Bo simply held his anger back.
Regardless, even if he had tried to reason with Cai Anqi, he couldn’t beat her in words, so it was best to just keep it bottled up inside.
“Let’s eat,” said Ning Shu softly.
Cai Anqi had been working all day, so she was already starved. She even ate an extra bowl of rice than usual.
Ning Shu looked at Cai Anqi’s appetite and said with a smile, “You should eat more to keep a healthy body. That way, when you give birth, the child will also be healthy.”
Wang Bo didn’t say a word.
Cai Anqi saw Ning Shu pretend to be a kind old lady, and the food felt like it was stuck in her throat.
This old woman was so good at acting and pretending to be a kind old lady in front of her son. But Cai Anqi would never forget what she went through today.
Ning Shu looked towards Cai Anqi’s ashen face and said with a smile, “I’ll take you to get a physical examination tomorrow.”
Cai Anqi’s heart clenched. She nervously asked, “Why take a physical examination for no reason?”
Ning Shu replied, “Of course, it’s to check whether your body is fit for pregnancy. You and Wang Bo are sure to have children in the future, but I just want to see my grandson before I leave.”
“I’m teaching Anqi to do housework because lately, I really haven’t been feeling very well. I’m not sure what’s going on and don’t know how long I’ll live. I just hope that after I leave, you two can support each other and live a good life.” Ning Shu said.
Wang Bo looked at Ning Shu emotionally and said, “Mom, you’re still young. Nowadays, most people live to be more than 70 years old. You still have a long time to live. Don’t say such disheartened words.”
“The outcome of life is always very uncertain. Who knows what will happen tomorrow?” said Ning Shu casually. She glanced towards Cai Anqi. “Let’s go to the hospital tomorrow to get a check-up.”
