Faced with Wufu’s stubbornness, Wu Lihong felt not only annoyed and powerless but also a bit apprehensive; the firr her stance beca, the more he felt that everything was slipping out of control.
The only thing that might suppress that girl now is probably bringing Madam Zhou back to the Wu Family. That stubborn girl surely can’t ignore her own mother, can she?
As long as she enters the Wu Family, hmph!
Wu Lihong organized the words he should say to Madam Zhou while slowly sipping tea, thinking that he must stoop a bit in humility!
It’s truly enough; aren’t won supposed to regard their husbands as heaven? Madam Zhou has also been influenced by the rebellious Wufu, no longer as docile as before.
Madam Zhou entered the Floral Hall and saw him holding a cup of tea and drinking, his expression sowhat complex.
This was her first man, and the one Shao Ai still stayed wholeheartedly committed to; he was also her last man. They had two children together and thought that coming to Changan would an family reunion for life.
But reality had rcilessly slapped her in the face. Her assumptions were so laughable; there wasn’t much that was taken for granted in reality.
"You’ve arrived!" Madam Zhou coughed lightly.
Wu Lihong heard the voice, hurriedly stood up, looked at her, and smiled: "With Mid-Autumn Festival approaching, I’m here to see you. Hmm, your complexion seems much better, a bit plump. How are the children?"
He looked at her belly, high and pointed; surely it’s a son, and at this thought, his heart ward.
Madam Zhou replied: "The child and I are well, you can rest assured."
Wu Lihong then said to the nanny beside her and Qiu Xiang: "You two can leave first; I want to talk with your madam."
"Madam’s body is getting heavier, the girl instructed us not to leave her side." Nanny Cheng said.
Again, that old hag!
Wu Lihong said coldly: "I am the biological father of the child in your madam’s belly; could I possibly harm the mother and child?" Really such a subservient servant, hmph.
Madam Zhou said to Nanny Cheng: "It’s fine, you may leave first, it’ll only take a mont."
"Then we will stand far away." Qiu Xiang said smartly, and indeed retreated far, and Nanny Cheng had no choice but to leave.
Wu Lihong was dissatisfied yet knew it was better than having them guarding closely.
He stepped forward a few paces and tenderly said: "i Niang, are you resenting ?"
Madam Zhou caressed her belly, lifted her head, and quietly looked at him.
"I know you resent , as does Wufu; it’s my fault as a father for not being capable. But I have difficulties too, and just thought everything would gradually improve, isn’t it all about taking things step by step?" Wu Lihong looked at Madam Zhou with deep and sincere affection and said: "i Niang, we are most in harmony, you are my understanding flower, always knowing my heart, can’t you understand a bit?"
"Understanding you ans letting our daughter serve as a servant girl in your household?" Madam Zhou softly said: "Mr. Wu, you’ve failed as a father. You have many daughters, not missing Wufu, so to you, whether she’s a servant or a maid makes no difference."
"But not to , I only have this one daughter, she’s suffered enough without a father’s care, as her mother, I can’t neglect her care. Otherwise, how can we be worthy of the title as parents?" Mada Zhou looked at him and said: "Mr. Wu, I understand you, and so I’ll no longer demand anything. We, mother and daughter, will no longer demand anything!"
Wu Lihong’s heart skipped a beat, intuitively sensing that her next words weren’t going to be good.
