ex-wife she is charming

Chapter 8 Birth, Maintenance

Xu Zhi said so, but Shang Jiming didn't listen at all.

The man put down the medicine box in front of her as if he had never heard of it, opened it, and found alcohol to disinfect her fingers.

Xu Zhi looked at the serious man sitting beside him in a daze.

For a moment, she hoped that time would stop at this moment.

Shang Jiming knew that this person was cold-hearted and indifferent, and he treated others even more coldly.

His appearance today was beyond Xu Zhi's expectation.

Therefore, the woman had to wonder if he had heard something at the kitchen door just now.

That's why he couldn't wait to run in front of him and pretend to be a good person, the purpose of which was to preserve the image of his darling in front of grandma.

After Shang Jiming put the iodophor back into the medicine box, Xu Zhi withdrew his hand without thinking.

"I didn't speak ill of Song Ning in front of grandma, nor did I mention the two of you. Don't worry, for now, you are still safe."

Shang Jiming frowned upon hearing this.

He didn't understand what this had to do with Song Ning.

Why are they not safe now.

In Shang Jiming's view, what Xu Zhi said was endless.

It's hard to understand for a moment.

But he didn't ask much, just frowned the whole time, looking very impatient.

Xu Zhi looked at his face, and gently rubbed the fingers of his left hand against his right wrist.

That place seemed to still have the residual warmth of the man's palm.

"Thank you."

Xu Zhi murmured softly, then got up and walked out of the house.

At the dinner table, Xu Zhi sat between Grandma and Shang Jiming, and opposite Ms. Fei and Song Ning.

At the beginning, the atmosphere on the table was relatively harmonious, and no one mentioned what happened yesterday, as if there was a tacit understanding built up invisible.

The old lady took the serving chopsticks and kept adding vegetables to Xu Zhi's bowl.

After a while, hills piled up in her bowl.

This feeling of being hurt and cared about made Xu Zhi feel so soft in his heart.

It's just that when she came to her senses, grandma was holding a piece of crispy meat and was about to put it in her bowl.

"Grandma, enough is enough, I can't eat so much and it will be wasted."

"Where is this? You, you just eat too little. Look at this thin wrist. It feels like I could break it with one hand."

Xu Zhi smiled helplessly.

"Grandma, I have gained a few pounds recently. I was only ninety pounds before, but now I am 94. I think I am fine now."

"Well, that's good, I like it."

Xu Zhi didn't think he was thin.

He is 1.6 meters tall and weighs 94 pounds.

Saying fat is not fat, saying thin is not thin.

Seeing that although it is slender, there is flesh where it should be fleshy, and lean where it should be thin.

Shang Jiming is very clear about this point.

It's just that at such a time, he suddenly added such a sentence, and the atmosphere changed inexplicably.

Xu Zhi glanced in his direction.

I don't want the man's eyes to fall on me.

At the same time, the trouser legs of the suit under the table brushed her calves vaguely, causing a burst of numbness.

Four eyes facing each other.

Xu Zhi's face burned for no reason.

This elder is still there, why is he so bold.

Seeing this, Ms. Fei who was sitting next to her frowned imperceptibly.

"How can you have a baby if you are too skinny? Last time I asked someone to send you the traditional Chinese medicine. Both of you should drink it on time. It is good for your body. I have told people to keep an eye on you every night, don't try to be lazy. The most important thing is to strive to conceive the child as early as possible."

Ms. Fei's tone was up and down, and the matter of having a baby came to her, as if it had become a heavy task that the two of them had to complete.

When Xu Zhi heard this, he couldn't help but glanced to the side.

The matter of having a child is not up to her alone.

Besides, the most important thing is that this man is now secretly giving her birth control pills...

Xu Zhi felt angry when he thought of this.

Didn't he know that taking too many contraceptive pills would hurt her health, and it might really cut off her chance to become pregnant and become a mother in the future.

The ambiguity that had arisen between the two before disappeared without a trace in an instant.

She raised her head and looked at Ms. Fei, her eyes were slightly lowered, and she said in a helpless tone, "Got it, Mom."

But at this moment, her appearance fell into Ms. Fei's eyes, and she didn't please her very much. On the contrary, she deliberately sighed heavily, and then looked at Shang Jiming.

"You know, when I went out two days ago, I ran into old classmates from the past, each of whom had already embraced their grandchildren, but I can only lead a dog every time I go out, and I will be thirty soon, your father When you were your age, I had already given birth to your sister and you."

"Yeah, my eldest sister got married earlier than me and hasn't given birth yet. I'll send some of the traditional Chinese medicine at home to their house tomorrow."

Shang Jiming also has an older sister, Shang Jiqing, who is three years older than him, and has already married and started a career, but has not yet had children.

Ms. Fei probably didn't expect Shang Jiming to refute it in person, and she was at a loss for words.

That Shang Jiqing was as capable as they were.

This daughter is married, whether they have children or not is a matter for the husband's family to discuss by themselves, and she has no right to control it.

But Shang Jiming is different from Xu Zhi, one is her own son and the other is her daughter-in-law, if she lets go, who cares.

He compared himself with Shang Jiqing, and he didn't know who he was trying to piss off.

"you……"

"Also, next time I will ask Jiang Zhi to get you two more Tibetan mastiffs to raise. They will definitely be more prestigious than your Chihuahua."

Normally, at times like this in the past, Xu Zhi faced Ms. Fei's storm by himself, but today Shang Jiming rarely took the initiative to speak up for him.

But to be honest, Xu Zhi couldn't be happy.

Because she knew that Shang Jiming didn't want to have a child with her, that's why he said this.

"Okay, I know I can't talk about you kid, and I don't like to talk about it anymore, so do what you like."

Ms. Fei was angry and helpless.

She really owed him, one day she got high blood pressure, and it was all their fault.

Seeing this, the old lady interjected in a timely manner: "Okay, okay, what are you doing talking about all this, some things are better to let nature take its course, and the fate of this child and grandchildren is even more so, I can't force it. I am an old woman, I just hope to be able to It's enough to see my great-grandson before I kick my legs and shut my eyes."

The reason why I didn't speak before was because the old lady wanted to stand up for her daughter-in-law.

But usually in this kind of situation, it is she who plays the bad face and Ms. Fei who plays the red face. If she speaks too early, it may hinder Ms. Fei's performance.

But as the old lady said herself, her age is here, maybe one day she will kick her feet and she will not be able to wake up after sleeping.

The only thing I can think about now is to see my great-grandson born, and I am satisfied.

But at the same time, she also knew that pushing the children too hard might backfire.

Xu Zhi felt distressed when he heard grandma's helpless and pitiful tone.

She raised her head and held the old lady's hand sincerely.

"Grandma, just wait, Ji Ming and I will definitely fulfill your wish."

The old lady smiled when she heard the words, and held Xu Zhi's hand behind her back, "Is it possible this year?"

Xu Zhi laughed helplessly, and turned to look at Shang Jiming beside him.

When she turned around again, her face was pink and shy, "I'm not the only one who has the final say on this kind of thing."

"You two, as long as you have the heart, you can do it!"

Obviously, the atmosphere that was still dignified one second, returned to normal the next second.

Because of Xu Zhi's words, everyone at the dinner table had a slight smile on their faces, except for Song Ning who was sitting there.

She was like an outsider. After silently listening to the family's discussion at the dinner table, no one noticed the change in her heart.

The chopsticks in her hand were firmly held by her, and at the same time, the hand on the table was clenched tightly. The pain of nails digging into the flesh could temporarily numb her restless heart at the moment.

Looking up, Xu Zhi and Shang Jiming were right in front of him.

Such a close distance, that position should belong to her.
