She Doesn't Want Kids After Seeing The Future

As the saying goes, a good life is better than a good death. Although she was already a grandmother, Li Jinhuan was only fifty years old. She had lived her whole life without any complaints. Not only did she raise two sons, but she also had good culinary skills. She was especially good at the food from her hometown in the south. Once her eyes were cured, there would be many good days ahead.

Knowing her mother-in-law’s temper, forcing her or persuading her would only backfire. This was the only way.

Chu Wei’s efforts were not in vain. After her mother-in-law returned to the main house, she came out of the courtyard to feed the ducks a short while later. She sat on the bench at the door and muttered as she sprinkled the feed. It was obvious that her mood was much better than before.

In the small courtyard, Chu Wei tidied up the dining table and quickly washed the dishes. She was shocked when she turned around. Chen Ji stood behind her silently and looked at her.

In the darkness, Chu Wei silently sized up Chen Ji. She didn’t know how he had lived for the past six years. Not only had his looks changed, but his figure was also different from before. His long legs made him look tall and handsome.

Chu Wei blushed. The more she looked at the man, the more embarrassed she felt. She changed the topic. “Little brother, Mom is feeding the ducks. If you go and persuade her now, she will probably agree to go for treatment.”

Chen Ji took a deep breath and sighed slowly. It was extremely difficult to coax his mother. Compared to persuading her to go for treatment, he was more willing to bear all the expenses.

Looking at Chen Ji’s helpless expression, Chu Wei felt very fortunate in her heart. A marriage like hers and Chen Ji’s was known in the city as arranged marriages. It was considered a feudal tradition and was despised by the people of the new era. People nowadays advocated freedom in love and found arranged marriages unacceptable.However, her view was the opposite. They were childhood sweethearts and knew each other well. Instead, they trusted each other and were very honest.

Understanding Chu Wei’s thoughts, Chen Ji turned around and walked out of the courtyard. Although Mrs. Chen had a bad temper and refused to listen to her advice, his wife had already done so much. He could only give it a try.

“Also, sleep with Mom tonight. If she wants to chase you away, say that I was angry and chased you away. There’s no place for you to stay,” Chu Wei said before Chen Ji walked out of the courtyard.

As a mother, she felt the same way as her mother-in-law. Firstly, she was afraid that she would implicate her daughters. Secondly, she was afraid that the two girls would not be happy in their marriages. She told Chen Ji to tell his mother that she had a tiff with Chen Ji. That was how she intended to force her mother-in-law to agree to treat her illness.

Chen Ji stopped in his tracks and nodded. He pushed open the courtyard door and Chu Wei said again, “If she insists that you come back to sleep, tell her that Chen Liang set our bedding on fire. There’s nothing to cover it.”

Seeing her mother-in-law getting older day by day, she knew very well what she was thinking. It was one thing to be afraid of spending money to treat illnesses, but it was another thing to be worried about spending money and not being able to be cured.

After Chen Ji left, the corners of Chu Wei’s lips curled up. Should she thank her sister-in-law for burning the blanket at the right time? How could her mother-in-law not be angry when she found out?

In addition, the first night Chen Ji came back, she chased him to Chen Hu’s home to sleep with Mom. How would her mother-in-law feel?

She knew her mother-in-law too well. Don’t think that she was easy to bully just because she was blind. That was just a small matter. If she was really pushed into a corner, she would definitely agree to go for treatment with Chen Ji. Once she was cured, with her mother-in-law’s personality, she would definitely not let Chen Hu’s family off easily.

Without waiting for Chu Wei to enter the house, Chen Ji turned around and came back. He held the burnt blanket in one hand and looked angry. “Chen Liang, that little brat, has rebelled. He actually dared to burn our bedding. I think he’s tired of living!”

Chu Wei was stunned. She had forgotten about this. When she went out to buy new bedding earlier, she had left this set of burned-out bedding at the entrance of the big room. She did not expect Chen Ji to see it and hear him gritting his teeth. She knew that he was really angry and felt that the hot-tempered Chen Ji had returned.

Shaking her head, Chu Wei quickly said, “It’s normal for a child to be mischievous. It’s just a set of bedding. I just bought a new set in the afternoon. I’ll put these aside for now. Some things can be settled after Mom’s eyes are healed.”

After standing at the entrance of the courtyard for a while, Chen Ji left with a gloomy expression. However, he came back after a while. Chu Wei was sweeping the floor. When she saw him return, she frowned. “Little brother, why are you back?”

Chen Ji said in a deep voice, “I brought a lot of things for you this time. Don’t forget to pack them up later.”

Chu Wei nodded and continued to sweep the floor. Chen Ji said again, “Xiaowei, after we treat mom’s eyes, I’ll bring you to the capital. I mean what I say this time.”

He had only been back for a few hours, but the foul atmosphere at home made him feel angry. It was hard to imagine how Chu Wei had survived the past six years. He had to bring her to the capital to make up for what he owed her and let her enjoy life.

Seeing Chen Ji’s serious face, Chu Wei pursed her lips and chuckled. “Okay, I’ll listen to you..”
