After being replaced, she changed from a miserable daughter-in-law to a lucky wife
Chapter 10 Preparing for the Return Gift
Xiao Zisen bit his lips, his eyes filled with tears as he lowered his head, and tears fell drop by drop on the back of his hand.
Xia Wanniang noticed that his little body was twitching, so she reached out and picked him up, sat on the stool he was sitting on, and put him on her lap.
Only then did she realize that Xiao Zisen had been crying like a tearful child. She couldn't help but feel worried. She gently wiped the tears from his face with her rough fingers and coaxed him softly, "What's wrong? Tell mom, are you feeling unwell?"
Xiao Zisen raised his big wet eyes and looked at her worried expression. He felt even more sad: What should he do? He seemed to like this mother a little. Would she hate him if he ate too much?
Thinking of this, he became more sad and began to cry silently.
Seeing that the child cried even harder the more she talked, Xia Wanniang was at a loss. She looked in the direction of Aunt Xiao and Xiao Chiye for help, wanting to ask what was going on.
Auntie Xiao felt bad when she saw her grandson crying. She raised her hand and touched Xiao Zisen's little head: "Mrs. Wan, he just saw you frowning and thought you disliked him for eating too much."
Xia Wanniang was stunned when she heard Aunt Xiao's explanation. She lowered her head and looked at the child who was crying in her arms. "I don't dislike you for eating too much. I think you eat too little. I'm thinking about how to fatten you up in the future. You'll be so cute when you're fat and white!"
Xiao Zisen looked up at her, tears still on his face, his eyes asking if what she said was true.
Xia Wanniang wiped the tears from his face with her sleeve, smiling gently, "I didn't lie to you. I feel so light and a little uncomfortable when I hold you. It's more comfortable to hold you when you're plump."
Xiao Zisen twisted his body somewhat unnaturally and glanced at her secretly.
Xia Wanniang picked up the bowl in front of him and said, "I'll feed you."
When Xiao Zisen saw that the spoon next to his mouth was full of food, he smiled with his eyebrows curved into crescents, opened his little mouth wide, and ate the food on the spoon in one bite.
When Aunt Xiao saw this scene, she turned her head and secretly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her sleeve, then smiled and picked up some food for Xiao Zimu, asking him to eat slowly.
Xiao Zilin and Xiao Chiye saw all of this and both smiled inadvertently.
Aunt Xiao then said, "Mrs. Wan, when life gets better at home, I will host another banquet for you."
Xia Wanniang didn't care at all: "Mom, the villagers don't have so many rules for getting married."
Xiao Chiye kept this in mind. Regardless of whether he married her out of sincerity or not, based on what she did today, as long as she was his wife, he would protect her and treat her sincerely.
Aunt Xiao was so happy that she didn't expect that she had picked up such a treasure by accident. It was really the blessing of the Xiao family's ancestors.
Thinking of this, she remembered another thing, the visit to her parents' home three days later.
Now that we are struggling to make ends meet, it is a bit troublesome to prepare decent gifts for the return visit.
Everyone enjoyed the meal happily. While Xia Wanniang was cleaning up the dishes, Aunt Xiao called Xiao Chiye: "Sanlang."
Seeing her worried look, Xiao Chiye stopped and walked over to sit beside her: "Mom, is there something wrong?"
Aunt Xiao nodded and said, "The day after tomorrow is the day when Wan Niang will return home. We don't have much money now, so I'm afraid we can't prepare a decent return gift for her."
Xiao Chiye frowned slightly. The things a woman brings back home can reflect her status in her husband's family. If she brings something shabby, people will inevitably talk about her.
"Mom, why don't I go to the mountains again."
Aunt Xiao quickly grabbed his hand and said, "No, you just got married today. How can you leave your wife behind when you get married? If someone sees you, they will definitely poke Wan Niang in the back."
Xiao Chiye felt helpless when he heard this. There was no other way around. What should he do?
