Chapter 916: Chapter 916: Disappointment "Mom, the weather outside is changing today, so maybe you shouldn’t take the little one out," Liu Juanhao said to Wang Meili, holding her pregnant belly. "Just play with her in the yard."
"What? I’m looking after your child, and you’re still complaining?" Wang Meili said angrily to Liu Juanhao.
If it weren’t for her blabbering to Gu Haojun about meeting Gu Lingling, her son wouldn’t have gone to see that brat, and wouldn’t have bought so many things.
And she wouldn’t have argued with her son because of it, nor quickly blurted out about the money Gu Lingling had hidden in her clothes to return to her son.
As a result, Gu Haojun didn’t talk to her for several days and even confiscated her monthly pocket money.
It’d be hard to ask him for money in the future.
All that money, Gu Haojun actually gave to Liu Juanhao, letting her manage the house.
Wang Meili never liked Liu Juanhao before, and now she finds her even more annoying.
This Liu Juanhao happens to be very clever, always pretending to be good in front of Gu Haojun, tricking her foolish son into doing whatever she says.
Every time Wang Meili thinks of that money, her liver aches with anger.
Seeing Liu Juanhao interfere in her affairs now, she’s even more infuriated.
She had already promised Wang Meiqi she would meet her today, how could she not go out?
Today, she decided to set some rules for this daughter-in-law.
"If you find me bothersome, then I’ll head back to the countryside," Wang Meili said, sitting down on the doorstep. "You take care of the little one yourself, so I won’t take her out only for you to worry again."
How could Liu Juanhao possibly feel at ease?
When Wang Meili takes the little one out, it’s either to gossip with those old ladies or to play cards with them, not paying attention to the child at all.
The child can walk now and has run off two or three times.
They’ve been lucky to find her, but what if they couldn’t? Liu Juanhao shudders at the thought.
But she herself is pregnant, having someone helping out is already a blessing.
"I’m not finding fault with you," she quickly explained. "Mom, the weather outside is bad, see, it’s about to rain. You’ll surely get soaked if you go out."
"If it’s not fault-finding, then what is it?" Wang Meili said angrily. "If you’re worried about the little one getting wet, you can take care of her yourself, I’m going out to clear my mind. Staying home all day looking after your child, I’m suffocating."
There’s nothing wrong with that.
But she, big belly carrying, taking care of a still-walking child, doing chores and cooking, Liu Juanhao feels she’s about to collapse.
Moreover, she’s about to give birth soon, what if something happens?
"Stop dawdling, should I take the little one out, or will you take care of her and I leave by myself?" Wang Meili looked at her.
She’s definitely going out today.
Liu Juanhao was too angry to speak, but seeing her in such a state, she didn’t dare to entrust the little one to her, so she watched Wang Meili walk away, head held high.
She looked like a victorious rooster.
With a sense of disappointment in her heart, Liu Juanhao felt even more empathy for her husband, Gu Haojun.
Having such a mother, it’s better to have none like her.
Heart so tired.
Too troublesome.
She wonders how Gu Haojun grew up, and wasn’t led astray, could it be considered a miracle?
If Gu Haojun were here, he would tell her that as a child, he mostly stayed with his second uncle and grandfather, and as he got a little older, he joined the army.
He really wasn’t raised much by Wang Meili.
