Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife

Chapter 1504: Chapter 1505: The Debt Collector

Adding a new member to the family is a great joy. Although they haven’t seen their grandson yet, Mother Qi was quite generous this time, asking Father Qi to buy a basket of eggs, dyeing them red with red paper, and distributing them to each family to inform them that the Qi family now has a grandson. It’s also meant to silence those who say that their daughter-in-law is infertile.

So, with this move, the Qi family can hold their heads high, and Mother Qi’s back is straighter. If her legs weren’t inconvenient, she’d probably walk around the village to boast that the Qi family now has an heir.

Having a child is an occasion for celebration, but Qi Taiguo is a soldier, and the military has its discipline—he can take one day off but not consecutive days. So, the next day, he couldn’t go to the hospital; he could only see them after work.

Therefore, Qi Taiguo asked Qi Fenglian to help take care of them for two days because Mother Cheng had to cook for Cheng Su, and someone needed to watch over the mother and son when she left the hospital.

Cheng Su herself was catching her breath, thinking the pain was over, only to find that breastfeeding was equally painful.

Watching her son suckle contentedly, Cheng Su felt bittersweet and numb inside. She said to Qi Fenglian, ”You only understand the kindness of parents when you raise a child; it’s really not easy. It’s hard during pregnancy, even harder giving birth, and breastfeeding is no different, not to mention the confinement period afterward, sigh.”

Qi Fenglian chuckled and said, ”Going by what you say, raising them later will be even harder!”

Cheng Su nodded seriously, ”Yes, raising a child to a hundred years, worrying ninety-nine.”

”When he goes to college in the future, it will be easier.” Qi Fenglian said.

”No way, there’s still marrying him off and taking care of grandchildren.” Cheng Su said, ”In short, children are here to collect debts!”

As soon as she said this, the baby in her arms suddenly stopped sucking, as if he understood her words, and even glanced at her.

”Oh, you little rascal, did you understand?” Cheng Su raised an eyebrow and gently pinched his cheek.

Qi Fenglian happened to see it and said, ”He’s still small, don’t pinch his face, or his mouth will be deformed.”

Cheng Su felt embarrassed, glared at the child, thinking you treasure him too much, I’m not even allowed to pinch.

”Children are all here to collect debts, and weren’t we the same for our parents?” Qi Fenglian said while folding diapers, ”Becoming a mother makes you realize how insufficient you were before!”

Cheng Su murmured in agreement and shifted the topic to ask about the shop.

Qi Fenglian paused her hand from folding diapers and said, ”Shi Ling said she won’t continue!”

Cheng Su was taken aback, ”Why’s that? She seemed to be doing well.”

Shi Ling had been around for two years and always did well, but now she’s saying she’s quitting?

Qi Fenglian laughed, ”Don’t worry, it’s good news! I mentioned before that someone was interested in Shi Ling, and now she agreed to marry that man. She said she’s going to develop near the Capital.”

”Oh, I see. Well, there’s nothing that can be done about that, so when did she say she would leave?” Cheng Su asked again.

”This month.” Qi Fenglian replied.

Cheng Su nodded, ”Then look for someone in the shop who’s suitable, promote them for the future, and hire another person!”

Qi Fenglian agreed.

After seeing the child eat and sleep, Cheng Su handed him to Qi Fenglian to put in the stroller and asked, ”Shi Ling has found her second chance in love, have you found someone suitable, big sister?”

Qi Fenglian blushed and reproached, ”I haven’t thought about it yet.”

Cheng Su glanced at her, ”Really?”

Qi Fenglian stammered and shook her head.

Seeing this, Cheng Su knew she was shy, and there might be someone but couldn’t be sure. Well, when she feels like it, she’ll definitely talk about it.
