Lily Turner lowered her head to look at her belly in the direction Alia Linton pointed, then smiled and looked at her, "The baby isn’t that fragile anymore, and is very well-behaved."
Now, with a big belly, she can’t do heavy work, but she doesn’t do nothing at all. She is not that fragile, nor is the baby in her belly.
"Not even so..."
"Let Lily help you. She knows her limits and knows what tasks she should and shouldn’t do."
Alia had just said two words when Callix Linton interrupted her with a aningful comnt.
If it were the early days of Lily Turner’s pregnancy, he certainly wouldn’t agree to let her help Alia with work, but now she’s more than five months pregnant, and she fully understands what to be careful about, so he no longer worries as much.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law rarely get along like this. He thinks they should interact more before the great-grandchild is born to make the relationship harmonious, which is good for everyone in the family.
Alia understood the old father’s aningful hint, looked at the thoughtful old father, said no more, and shifted her gaze to Lily Turner, "Since your grandfather has spoken, help bring these two pairs of shoes in."
She bent down, picked up the bag with shoes on the floor, and handed it to Lily Turner, who stood in front of her.
"Alright!"
Lily Turner reached out to take the bag handed by Alia Linton, smiling. For the sake of the baby in her belly, she didn’t try to carry other things, and with two bags of shoes, she followed Alia Linton into the room.
Callix Linton wouldn’t really let pregnant Lily Turner help Alia with work, and as soon as they were inside, he imdiately called Aunt Li to assist.
Aunt Li has been in this family much longer than Lily Turner and knows a lot more about the housework. Seeing these changes in Alia Linton, she was genuinely happy for Mr. Linton and Easton Hols.
Actually, without Callix’s instructions, she decided to step in and help, not because she’s the housekeeper, but truly wanting to help Alia Linton with the work. If it were before, she wouldn’t have willingly done so.
With Aunt Li’s help, Alia quickly tidied things up. Afterward, Aunt Li astutely exited the room, leaving space for Alia and Lily Turner, allowing the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to have ti alone to connect and talk.
"Lily! Sit."
Alia pointed to the bedside, inviting Lily Turner to sit down. She understood the good intentions and efforts of the old father and Aunt Li, which she would not let down.
She was sincerely grateful for the old father giving her a chance to repent and the rare opportunity to reconcile with her son and daughter-in-law.
"Auntie! You sit too."
Lily Turner proactively reached out to hold Alia, sitting beside her. She could feel the change in her mother-in-law’s attitude.
At this mont, she silently resolved in her heart to build a better relationship with her mother-in-law and have her accept her soon.
After sitting down, Alia hesitated briefly and spoke first, "Well, Lily! Could you change the way you address in the future? You’ve married Easton now, isn’t it ti to call mom?"
Previously, hearing her being called mom made her uncomfortable and even repelled. Now, hearing herself being called aunt makes her feel uncomfortable again.
