Chapter 227 - Shunkou
He had left the country for a long time. With a creaking sound, the door was pushed open from the outside.
"Xiao Xiang, are you up yet?"
I hastily got up from the bed. I hurriedly folded up the blanket and awkwardly looked towards the entrance of the room where Zhao Xiyan's mother was beaming.
Before "Auntie" could finish, I could smell the pungent smell of medicinal food.
His emotions instantly became complicated.
"Xiao Xiang, I've already made it, hurry up and eat it while it's still hot. This aunty is afraid that you might not get used to it, so she specially made a little white sugar for you to eat after your medicinal meal."
The medicinal food was pushed in front of me, and the taste was even more stimulating.
When he had first left the hospital, he had come to Zhao Xiyan's house with Zhao Xiyan's mother. He had muddle-headedly become Zhao Xiyan's nominal girlfriend, and even the child in his womb had been treated as Zhao Xiyan's son by Zhao Xiyan's mother.
Ever since I knew that I had a child in my womb, the gentle Zhao Xiyan's mother seemed less gentle, especially after drinking the medicinal food she made every day.
I know that Zhao Xiyan's mother did it for the sake of my child, but I really can't accept the taste of medicinal food. It's an extremely weird taste, a taste that doesn't match the tolerance of humans.
"Auntie, can I not drink?" The five words stuck in my throat, meeting Zhao Xiyan's mother's expectant eyes, I couldn't refuse.
Zhao Xiyan explained to me that his mother is currently ill and can only be controlled. Given her current medical standards, there's no way she can be cured. She might be left with less than a year.
His mother was aware of this fact as well, but she continued to smile every day. I couldn't refuse her smile.
"Awesome, I knew it! Xiao Xiang is the best, our baby is the best!" Zhao Xiyan's mother looked at me as I finished the medicinal food. Her smile was exceptionally benevolent.
If it weren't for the fact that the bitter taste in my mouth hadn't disappeared, I would have been in the mood to laugh. After all, Mama Zhao's smile was very infectious, but unfortunately, it couldn't be.
"Alright, hurry up and wash up. I'll prepare breakfast for you." Zhao Xiyan's mother happily took the bowl down, leaving me to sprint a hundred meters into the bathroom.
In this period of time, Zhao Xiyan's mother had perfectly taught me what a true expert is, always being able to pull me into her circle. I didn't have any way to refute her.
I was really convinced of Zhao Xiyan's mother.
However, if I didn't have Zhao Xiyan's mother this time, I'm afraid that she would still be grieving over her parents every day, as well as the matter of being gentle. Zhao Xiyan's mother had helped me out of the shadows in some aspects, and I don't know whether to laugh or to cry every day.
The baby's growth is also a bit healthier, yesterday when we went to the hospital, the doctor also took a picture, the baby is very healthy, my heart is also a little bit relieved.
After a simple wash, I felt warm in my heart as I looked in the mirror at my face which had gained a little more flesh.
Just as he reached the staircase, he heard his aunt's resounding berating voice.
"Xi Yan!" Hurry up and help my daughter-in-law down! And my darling grandson, if anything happens to them, I want you to watch out. "
The corner of my mouth twitched. When she treated me, Auntie was always very gentle, but every time I met Zhao Xiyan, I always felt like Auntie had opened some kind of door, and instantly felt like a completely different person.
Zhao Xiyan complained right after, "Mom, do you think I'm your biological son or not?"
"Of course not, my daughter-in-law is my biological daughter." Zhao Xiyan's mother answered without thinking.
I didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Auntie, you don't have to be like this, I can come down by myself." I said as I went down.
In this period of time, while Zhao Xiyan and his mother were growing up together, I had indeed been living the life of a little princess.
One must know that Zhao Xiyan is the idol of many people. Now, under the guidance of his mother, he has to bring tea and water to me.
After all, I'm not Zhao Xiyan's real girlfriend. Every night, Zhao Xiyan would open a shop in my room, and in the end, the excuse I gave his mother was that he was afraid that I would hurt his child by resting with him, so he moved into the study.
"No, you're Auntie's darling aunt's baby now, so if you need anything in the future, just tell Xi Yan. If he doesn't do it, I'll break his legs." Zhao Xiyan's mother gestured in the air with the spoon in her hand.
This atmosphere, let me not smile.
"En, right, mother, don't worry. Next time, I will definitely follow your instructions. If he doesn't do it, we will break his legs together." I smiled and took Zhao XIyan's mother's arm.
The last bit of haze in his heart dissipated with the wind.
Lin Xiang, from today on, you have to forget the past and start a new life. From now on, your identity is Zhao Xiyan's wife.
Zhao Xiyan's mother wiped her eyes and rubbed her ears. I don't know where she put her remaining arm, but she looked at me with a face full of joy.
"Xiao Xiang, did you just …"
"Yes, I called you Mom just now. Zhao Xiyan and I will be getting our marriage certificates this week."
I smiled at Zhao Xiyan's mother.
However, there was still a little bit of guilt in my heart, because I knew that this was a lie to Zhao Xiyan's mother. There would be a day when she would know this, and all I could do was to make her never find out that this was a lie during her lifetime.
He gave me time to think it over and marry him. Of course, I was just his wife on the surface, we were just working together, I found a father for my child, and he, who let his mother live in peace for the rest of his life, didn't want his aunt to know that he liked men.
Because Auntie can't accept that.
Before that, Zhao Xiyan told me a story.
All these days, I've been thinking and I haven't been able to sit down and decide, but at this moment, I make up my mind.
Such a good aunt, a good mother-in-law, she was like my mother, how could I let her suffer such pain?
Sometimes, white lies are not frightening.
I had made up my mind that I would give her a happy second half, at least in her limited life.
Zhao Xiyan, who was standing at the side, didn't react. I took advantage of Auntie's lack of attention and kicked him.
"Mom, Lin Xiang agreed to become my wife? We're getting married! " Zhao Xiyan suddenly realized what was going on and became excited.
I have to say, I should be glad that I and Zhao Xiyan are both acting. Otherwise, just talking to Zhao Xiyan's mother would be full of holes. I'm glad that we can control our emotions.
"However, Senior, I feel that before that, you have to think of a way. After all, you are the Big Star, and if I were to be exposed, your crazy fans would be too much for me to handle." I pretended to be afraid and patted my chest.
Hearing this, Zhao Xiyan rubbed the back of his head.
"Don't worry, I would never let that happen, right? "Mom?"
"Of course, if you, brat, dare to let my daughter-in-law suffer grievances, don't even think about entering my home!" Zhao Xiyan's mother stared at him with a face full of arrogance.
"Hahaha." In the living room, it was our resounding laughter. I thought, growing up in this environment, birth, my child, must be very weird.
From now on, I am a mother, I am not alone, the doctor told me, parents when pregnant, can not give too many negative emotions, otherwise the child bad.
Xiao Xiang, hurry up and eat, I have experience in pregnant women, back then when I was Huai Xi Yan, I did not have a mother-in-law. Back then, I did not know anything, and it was only the beginning, and I did not know how to treat her.
I can only constantly nod in agreement with him as I address him as' mother ', and it can be said that his words were rather smooth to me.
