1764 Father Qi’s Solicitous Ingratiation

They were mature adults, but this time, they actually bickered in the car over the child’s gender. Even when the two entered the living room of the old Qi residence, Chi Shuyan didn’t give the man a good face.

When the couple returned to the old residence, the Qi family was overjoyed, especially Grandpa, Father Qi, and Mother Qi. The three of them had already been waiting for the couple to return to the old residence. They asked about their well-being, and wished they would move back to the old residence to stay.

Unfortunately, Zhenbai insisted on living outside. Grandpa was a sensible person and didn’t press the issue. As for Father and Mother Qi, they didn’t have the confidence to do so. Who asked this son of theirs to be so opinionated since he was young? No one could change his mind.

Moreover, their son exuded a strong aura. Not to mention outsiders, even his parents often felt that their son was too vicious and imposing, and was especially scary. In addition, their son had been raised by the old man himself. His biological parents had neglected him a lot in the past, and now that they wanted to be involved in their son’s life, they didn’t have the confidence.

Qi Zhenbai’s face was quite cold when facing Father and Mother Qi; it was only in front of Grandpa that his cold and hard face softened a little. As for Chi Shuyan, she definitely couldn’t give her mother-in-law and father-in-law a bad face. Besides, her mother-in-law and father-in-law might have ignored Qi Zhenbai when he was young, but they were really good to her.

Mother Qi immediately said kindly, “Daughter-in-law, I just made you pigeon and seaweed soup. Eat more later. It’s good for the baby!”

Ever since her daughter-in-law got pregnant, Mother Qi had a lot to say to her. Now, she seized the opportunity to immediately exhort her on all sorts of things that pregnant women should pay attention to. Chi Shuyan listened especially seriously. Although Qi Zhenbai was talking to Grandpa, he didn’t forget to listen seriously to Mother Qi’s exhortations.

After all, Mother Qi had experienced it before, so it was vital to listen to her opinion.

Mother Qi couldn’t help but nag a little more. Father Qi was a little impatient when he heard this. He interrupted Mother Qi and spoke to his daughter-in-law with a pleasant face and with an even more obsequious tone than usual. “Daughter-in-law, how have you been? And how is my grandchild?”

“Daughter-in-law, don’t feel stressed about the firstborn. Our Qi family is not one to just value boys over girls. In the future, you and Zhenbai will have a few more children. I’ll take care of them for you and your husband!” Even though Father Qi said that, he hoped that Zhenbai’s wife would give him a fair and plump grandson as her firstborn. Moreover, Father Qi was a traditionalist who felt that a son had to carry on the family line.

But with Zhenbai here, Father Qi didn’t dare reveal his thoughts. In addition, he wanted to curry favor with his daughter-in-law this time, so how could he reveal anything?

After a pause, Father Qi continued, “By the way, have you and Zhenbai chosen a name? If not, I can pick one for you when I have the time.”

Chi Shuyan hadn’t spent much time with Father Qi before. This time, Father Qi’s solicitous, enthusiastic and open-minded words flattered her. She didn’t know if she was thinking too much, but she felt that her father-in-law was trying to curry favor with her. She had never seen Father Qi take the initiative to say so much to her before

Chi Shuyan slapped her forehead and felt that she was probably thinking too much. Looking at Father Qi’s cautious gaze, she was really a bit puzzled. After listening to Father Chi’s simple request, she was about to nod in agreement.

Who would have thought that a certain man next to her would refuse first? “There’s no hurry to name the baby. We’ll talk about it later!”

With Qi Zhenbai’s refusal, the atmosphere turned a little awkward. Father Qi’s face also inexplicably stiffened and looked quite unsightly.

Mother Qi wanted to say a few words on Father Qi’s behalf, but Grandpa Qi said disdainfully at that moment, “Zhenbai is right. There’s no hurry to name my great-grandson. If anyone really is to name him, it’ll be me as the great-grandfather. Anyone else can forget it!”

The old man’s words made Father Qi feel even more upset, but he didn’t dare refute. His excited face immediately turned a little listless. In the end, Father Qi could only grit his teeth and say that he hoped that his daughter-in-law would have more children with Zhenbai. In any case, the Qi family was big and powerful, and could afford to raise as many children as possible. Even if Zhenbai’s wife gave birth to ten children, they could still afford to raise them.

In the future, he would have a chance to choose a name.

Chi Shuyan was especially embarrassed by Father Qi’s hopeful expression. If Qi Zhenbai urged her to have more children, she would immediately retort and ask the man if she was a pig.

Even as she thought this, Chi Shuyan still replied politely to Father Qi on the surface. “Got it, Dad!”

Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, the man next to her said again, “If you really want to have a child, just have another one with my mother. As for my wife, we only plan to have one child for now. We won’t consider anything else!”

The man’s tone was especially cold and indifferent, and didn’t contain the slightest bit of warmth, which rendered Father Qi speechless and embarrassed until his face flushed red. Father Qi really almost flew into a rage. It was only when Grandpa deliberately coughed a few times that Father Qi gritted his teeth and swallowed his anger. However, he still couldn’t help but say angrily, “I’m talking to my daughter-in-law!”

Qi Zhenbai couldn’t be bothered with Father Qi, who choked even more with anger. In the end, Grandpa broke the father and son apart, and sternly told Zhenbai to go sit in the study for a bit. As for Zhenbai’s wife, the old man was afraid that she would go hungry, so he immediately had Mother Qi take her to drink some nutritious soup.

Before going upstairs, Grandpa said especially kindly, “Zhenbai’s wife, just tell your mother and the housekeeper what you want to eat. We’re all family, so don’t stand on ceremony!”

“Got it, Grandpa!”
