99 Your wife is so thin...

"You brat, don't keep eating yourself. Add some meat to your wife's plate also. Look how thin she is." Said Mother Qing while glaring at Qing Shan.

Knowing that he cannot escape nor retort, Qing Shan quietly started adding meat and vegetable in Zhi Ruo's plate while she was trying to control her laughter.

Father Qing and Grandpa Qing also quietly started filling up their wives plates else they would be scolded more badly.

This time Zhi Ruo was unable to control her laughter specially the sympathetic look that both the men;s gave Qing Shan after he was scolded.

"hahahha" laughed Zhi Ruo

"Good Good, you should keep laughing. Laughing increases life span and also helps in maintaining youth. This way you can keep a hold of your husband for a long time. " said grandma Qing

"See you look so beautiful while laughing." added Mother Qing

Going closer to her ear's Qing Shan also spoke,"You really look angelic while laughing."

Controlling her laughter Zhi Ruo resumed eating while trying to hide her embarrassment.

After dinner,

"Zhi Ruo, come let;s spend some mother daughter time." saying Mother Zhi dragged Zhi Ruo back to her room.

"Shan'er, come help your grandma in taking a walk" said Grandma Qing.

Grandpa Qing and Father Qing started playing chess while thinking about Zhi Ruo's job...

"Father, do you remember, Mr. Chu?" asked father Qing.

"Yes, I remember. I also know he is the chief of the department." answered Grandfather Qing

"Should we inform him once? What do you think?" asked Father Qing with a conflicted expression.

"Yes, let's inform him atleast. We don't want our daughter to suffer anything when she is in our territory." Grandfather Qing said with a determined expression.

"Perfect dad, let's go tomorrow then."

"Yes, let's go tomorrow morning. Good work's should not be delayed." said grandpa Qing.

Inside the room,

Asking Zhi Ruo to sit besides herself Mother Qing spoke, "Zhi Ruo, I understand your concerns."

Confused Zhi Ruo asked,"I didn't understand mother."

Patting her head Mother Qing explained her, "Zhi Ruo, I know you and Qing Shan were married with unusual conditions. I actually want to thank you for coming into my son's life.

I had been in your shoes as well once, so I know that you were anxious and worried about our reaction on your job. "

Zhi Ruo nodded her head and waited for her mother in law to continue.

"Zhi Ruo, Qing family was once patriarchal and narrow minded, but my mother in law changed everything. Now our family is open minded and much more happy.

I have always wanted a daughter after having Qing Shan, but my health didn't allow us.

You are no less than my daughter to me, so I will get it straight. You never have to get any permission from us for any of your decisions. You can discuss with Qing shan and do whatever you feel right.

But let me also warn you, if that brat dosen't agree with your decision, throw him out till he agrees with it, ok?"

Smiling Zhi Ruo hugged Mother Qing and said,"Thankyou mother, I was actually worried about everything. But your words have calmed me down."

Patting her head mother Qing murmured,"Silly daughter in law."
