The room was silent and had an indescribable strangeness.
Fu Hansheng grabbed my wrist and walked through the crowd towards the bed.
Grandma Fu was leaning against the headboard and looked rather energetic. She held my hand excitedly the moment she saw me.
“My dear granddaughter-in-law, why did you only come now? I’ve missed you so much all this while. It would be great if you came earlier. I could still share a piece of cake with you!”
Grandma wiped her tears as soon as she saw me.
It was as if she had been wronged in the Fu household. Fu Hansheng’s father did not know what to do with Grandma Fu, and she did not have an outlet to vent her frustration.
“Mom, the doctor said that you have vascular embolism and need to eat less sweet food. How could you snack behind our backs? If anything happens to you, how are we going to live?”
“How could you say that? Are you cursing me to die earlier? If I die, it will benefit all of you. Only Little Ran will be bullied to death!”
“Grandma.” Fu Hansheng let go of my hand and sat beside Grandma Fu. His tone softened.
“Don’t spout nonsense. Watch what you eat from now on. Only if you take care of your health and live a long life, can Jiang Ran come visit you more.”
Grandma ignored him and looked at me instead. “Little Ran, have you carried forward your plan with Hansheng? When are you going to have children? Don’t you learn from those young people and use contraceptives.”
Grandma held onto Fu Hansheng and me with both hands. She said earnestly, “I hope that in my limited time left in this world, we can have four generations living together under one roof.”
“Uh.”
I didn’t expect Grandma to say that. For a moment, I was speechless.
Grandma’s eyes suddenly widened. She saw there was something amiss with my expression. “I understand, I understand. You’ve already carried out your plan to have kids.”
This made me even more unsure of how to respond.
Fu Hansheng frowned subconsciously, but then relaxed his brows. His delicate face was full of certainty. “Don’t worry, I promise we’ll give birth to your great-grandson.”
I felt bitter, but I did not dare to speak.
He’s pushing all the blame on me. He has affairs outside all day, but does not even look me in the eye. So am I supposed to reproduce asexually?!
After exchanging pleasantries, the butler brought a small bowl of pumpkin porridge along with a lightly pickled cucumber. Grandma did not like to eat these, so she shook her head and refused.
No matter how others tried to persuade her, she wouldn’t budge. In the end, Fu Hansheng placed the bowl into my hands and said in a low voice, “You do it.”
“It’s not like I can read her mind.”
I muttered under my breath. In the end, I complied with him obediently upon receiving his sharp warning gaze.
After he left, I sat next to Grandma and held up the bowl to feed her. However, she immediately rejected me. “I refuse to eat this swill!”
I saw that Grandma’s face was very grim, and instantly had an idea. I immediately put on an aggrieved expression and looked at her with teary eyes. “Grandma, do you want to lose me?”
“What do you mean?” The old lady frowned and stared at me in confusion.
“Fu Hansheng has always looked down on me. If I can’t even serve you well, I’m afraid he’ll kick me out of the house. If that’s the case, how am I supposed to visit you from then on?”
Grandma Fu pondered for a long time and weighed the pros and cons seriously. She knew very well how much Fu Hansheng had objected to my marriage to him back then.
Out of repulsion towards that outcome, she gritted her teeth and said, “Alright, alright. I’ve lost to you as an old woman. You better be on good terms with Hansheng. I don’t like any of the other girls.”
“Alright!”
I fed Grandma bit by bit until she finished the bowl of porridge. Then I took the bowl out.
Out of the blue, Fu Hansheng’s deep and glacial voice sounded from above my head.
“Finished?”
“Are you trying to scare me to death?”
I was startled and raised the bowl again.
He raised his eyebrows, and a mysterious smirk flashed across his lips. He said slowly, “You should be able to understand what that old lady meant just now. You’re not allowed to leave the old residence tonight.”
“What do you mean?”
At that moment, I didn’t yet understand what he meant. The next second, he threw something at me. I quickly caught it and realized that it was Durex!
“D… Durex?” I asked.
He sneered, his eyes full of scorn. Out of his shamelessness towards me, he kindly reminded me. “I never took any precautions in that aspect. Please prepare this for me.”
Uh oh!
Initially, I was afraid that he would accidentally leave his seed outside and cause troubles in the future, so I secretly left emergency measures in each of his coats.
My good intentions were not rewarded..
