Married to My Ex-Fiancé's Cousin-Chapter 467: Don’t take you seriously. _1
Chapter 467: Chapter 467: Don’t take you seriously. _1
While they were chatting, Qi Cheng’s mother mentioned Yangyang to the second sister-in-law, "Shi Xuan, Qi Cheng said he wants to bring Yangyang back."
Upon hearing this, the second sister-in-law froze. She instinctively looked at Yangyang next to her. Finally, the moment arrived. She bit her lip, continued eating her meal, and said nothing.
Qi Cheng’s mother knew she was throwing a tantrum, so she tried to persuade her, "I know you can’t bear to part with Yangyang, but he’s grown up now. It’s better for him to be with his biological parents."
The second sister-in-law said, "I am his biological mother."
"Shi Xuan!"
"Mom, if you really want to take Yangyang away from me, then let me die!" The second sister-in-law said coldly.
Her attitude made Qi Cheng’s mother sigh helplessly, "How can you say that?"
"Yangyang is my life. All these years, how have I survived? Can’t you see?" She raised her head and happened to meet the eyes of Ji Yunhuan and Qi Cheng. She sighed again, "I know Ji Yunhuan and Qi Cheng have had a hard time too, but I really can’t let go of Yangyang. No matter what happens, I don’t want to let go of Yangyang. He’s my only son!"
After saying this, the second sister-in-law stood up angrily. The issue seemed to be a sore spot for her. Whoever touched it would earn her wrath!
Yangyang saw the second sister-in-law leave and followed her out of the dining room.
Qi Cheng’s mother looked helplessly at Yangyang, who loved clinging to the second sister-in-law.
She said, "Your second sister-in-law is like this. Give her some time to get used to it. Yangyang has been accustomed to being with her; he can’t easily accept you. Spend more time bonding with him."
Ji Yunhuan remained silent, staring blankly in the direction where Yangyang had left. Qi Cheng said, "The second sister-in-law doesn’t want us to interact with Yangyang at all."
"She won’t," Qi Cheng’s mother said. "I will talk to her."
Lin Xiang had been sitting quietly beside them like a background character. No one spoke to her. She finally said, "When Yangyang was young, the second sister-in-law always took care of him. Now that Ji Yunhuan is back, she wants to take the second sister-in-law’s child away. Isn’t that excessive?"
"..." Her sudden words brought an awkward silence.
Ji Yunhuan remained silent.
Lin Xiang continued, "If you really cared about the child, you shouldn’t have left him and Qi Cheng in the first place. Now, you not only want to take Qi Cheng back but also the child. I’ve never seen a woman like you."
Qi Cheng frowned upon hearing this. He glanced at Lin Xiang, who lowered her head.
Although Lin Xiang aimed her comments at Ji Yunhuan, she feared angering Qi Cheng. Only in front of others did she dare to say a few words.
Afraid Qi Cheng would get angry, which could lead to violence, Qi Cheng’s mother said, "Grandfather’s birthday is next month. Qi Cheng, you should plan when to go."
The Qi Family would gather for Grandfather’s big birthday celebration.
Qi Cheng was always adored by Grandfather, so naturally, he had to go. The first year Qi Cheng married, Ji Yunhuan was pregnant with Yangyang, so he couldn’t go. Qi Cheng had only been away for two days.
"Alright, I know," Qi Cheng nodded.
Lin Xiang couldn’t help but glance at Qi Cheng upon hearing this.
Seeing an opportunity, she felt hopeful. frёeweɓηovel_coɱ
She continued eating her meal quietly.
The older brother had already taken Leilei back to the room.
At night, the baby kept fussing, so Ji Yunhuan didn’t sleep until very late. She woke up late the next morning. Qi Cheng was already up. His health had improved recently, and sometimes he woke earlier than Ji Yunhuan.
The baby was still asleep as Ji Yunhuan went downstairs alone. Qi Cheng’s mother was in the living room. Ji Yunhuan greeted her first, and Qi Cheng’s mother responded slowly. Lin Xiang had just come from the kitchen, carrying fresh breakfast. Seeing Ji Yunhuan, she sneered, "Ms. Ji, you woke up early! Why don’t you sleep a bit more?"
"When I wake up is my business." She didn’t care that Qi Cheng’s mother was there.
Lin Xiang smirked coldly, "Yes, it’s your business. But you don’t get up to help Auntie make breakfast for Qi Cheng. You wake up late and don’t find it disgraceful?"
As she spoke, she placed the freshly made breakfast in front of Qi Cheng’s mother and said eagerly, "Auntie, try what I made. Is it good?"
Qi Cheng’s mother, giving face, tasted a bit, "Lin Xiang, your cooking is excellent."
"I learned all this from my mom. She loved making good food for the family. When I was abroad, I missed her cooking so much. My biggest dream is to be a good wife and loving mother like her." She finished and glanced scornfully at Ji Yunhuan.
In comparison, Ji Yunhuan seemed very lazy.
Ji Yunhuan felt uncomfortable under Lin Xiang’s gaze and asked, "Mom, have you seen Qi Cheng?"
"He’s outside. Go look for him," Qi Cheng’s mother didn’t dwell on Lin Xiang’s words.
Watching Ji Yunhuan leave, Lin Xiang said to Qi Cheng’s mother, "She’s so disrespectful to you. I bet she’s never cooked a meal for Qi Cheng, right?"
"It’s nothing. We have servants," Qi Cheng’s mother said, though she wasn’t happy.
Her ideal daughter-in-law was like the second sister-in-law, respectful outside, capable in the kitchen, considerate, and good to her.
Even though Ji Yunhuan was polite, her personality was distant. She wasn’t close to anyone and treated Qi Cheng’s mother coldly.
So even though Ji Yunhuan was courteous, she always seemed like an outsider to Qi Cheng’s mother.
She had never genuinely enjoyed a meal prepared by Ji Yunhuan. Though they had servants, the sentiment was different.
In many ways, Ji Yunhuan had too many shortcomings for Qi Cheng’s mother to disregard. Yet...
Qi Cheng loved her.
For family peace, Qi Cheng’s mother endured.
Ji Yunhuan left the house and heard Lin Xiang comment, "Auntie, you’re too kind. Qi Cheng spoils Ji Yunhuan so much she doesn’t respect you at all."
Qi Cheng’s mother smiled, saying nothing.
But Ji Yunhuan could feel Qi Cheng’s mother’s dislike.
She only tolerated Ji Yunhuan for Qi Cheng’s sake.
Before this, their relationship had been particularly strained.
Just as the older brother left, Qi Cheng returned. The morning air was fresh. Ji Yunhuan stood by the flowerbed, gazing at the blossoms.
He approached and looked at his wife, "What are you thinking?"
Ji Yunhuan glanced at Qi Cheng, "Where did you go? I couldn’t find you."
"Couldn’t find me, and that’s why you’re unhappy?" Qi Cheng looked at her curiously.
Ji Yunhuan said, "No. I just met someone annoying early in the morning. It ruined my mood."
"Lin Xiang?" In this house, the most annoying person had to be Lin Xiang.
