Falling in Love with My Contracted Husband - Chapter 228
Chapter 228 Design Drawings
Very quickly, the two of them returned to the Xu mansion. When Lin Qiyuan arrived at the garage, he discovered that Elder Xu’s car had returned. He knew that Elder Xu and Madam Xu had returned. He then instructed the butler to get the things in the car into the hall and helped An Zixi into the hall.
As soon as An Zixi and Lin Qiyuan returned, someone notified Elder Xu and Madam Xu, so the two of them waited in the hall. When they saw Lin Qiyuan helping An Zixi in, Madam Xu hurriedly walked to An Zixi’s side and helped An Zixi.
An Zixi couldn’t help but say, “I, I’m fine. You didn’t deliberately come to help me, and didn’t Xiao Qi still support me?”
“This is not going to work. Child, this is a crucial period for you. Be careful no matter what you do. Of course, I can’t ignore you! You just have to be obedient.” After saying that, Madam Xu said to Lin Qiyuan, “Little Yuan, let’s eat at Auntie’s house today. I’ll cook for you myself later.”
‘”Auntie, even if you don’t tell me, I have already planned to stay for dinner. Yesterday, auntie had a meal, but it tasted good on my stomach. When I eat other meals today, I feel that they are not delicious. I can’t eat any more. I still want to eat what auntie cooked.”
“That’s good. In the future, when Xiao Yuan is free, he can come over to eat. He can come every day.”
“Auntie, that’s what you said! I have nothing to do in the future, so I have to come to eat often!”
Seeing that his mother and Lin Qiyuan were chatting so happily that he had forgotten that An Zixi was a little jealous, he said to Madam Xu, “Mom, you’re too kind to Xiao Qi. You’re almost on par with your own mother. Why don’t you let Xiao Qi do as you please?”
Madam Xu and Lin Qiyuan both spoke with a strong sour tone in An Zixi’s words. Madam Xu smiled and said, “Silly girl, no matter how good my relationship with Xiao Qi is, it’s not as good as my family’s Zixi! Zixi is my life, the apple of my eye, no one can compare to it.”
Madam Xu said, “Zixi, look at how good aunt treats you! I’m so jealous, so don’t be jealous. You’re not afraid of losing your teeth.”
An Zixi suddenly felt that as long as Lin Qiyuan was in front of her parents, he would be especially bold and would even apologize to her. Thus, he rolled his eyes at Lin Qiyuan and said, “Alright, you two are two living treasures. Sit down quickly! Tell us where you went today.”
When mentioning this An Zixi, she remembered that at night, Madam Xu had repeatedly instructed him not to go to places with too many people, but he forcefully pulled Lin Qiyuan to go shopping, so he was stunned and didn’t dare to say anything. Unfortunately, at this time, the servants happened to bring in all the things in Lin Qiyuan’s car.
Seeing this situation, An Zixi knew that it had already been revealed. Elder Xu and Madam Xu also knew clearly when they saw this big and small bag of things. Elder Xu didn’t ask An Zixi anymore and directly asked Lin Qiyuan, “Xiao Qi, you two didn’t have to go shopping all day today, did you?”
When Lin Qiyuan saw An Zixi’s honest appearance, he knew that Elder Xu and Madam Xu must have instructed An Zixi before, but An Zixi didn’t listen. However, she still defended An Zixi and said, “Uncle and aunt, it was my fault. I didn’t think about taking An Zixi shopping. Don’t blame Zixi.”
‘”Alright, Xiao Yuan, you don’t have to speak up for Zi Xi anymore. Who doesn’t know that you’re facing her? You can’t beat her at all. He must have dragged you there. You don’t have to defend her. She’s just disobedient, and she’s like a child.” Although Elder Xu was strict at first, he was full of doting.
In the end, she even smiled at An Zixi. In her opinion, as long as An Zixi was fine, he could do whatever he wanted. He followed her. Even if An Zixi was clamoring for the stars in the sky, he was willing to find a way to give them to her. Therefore, he simply couldn’t be angry with An Zixi.
An Zixi stuck out his tongue when he saw Elder Xu smiling. He drilled into Elder Xu’s embrace and said, “Dad, I was originally a child in front of you!”
Everyone laughed when they heard An Zixi’s words. After all, women were very sensitive when shopping, so Mrs. Xu walked over to An Zixi and said, “Zixi, what did you buy with your big and small bags? Just tell the housekeeper if you need anything at home.”
After saying that, Madam Xu also walked in front of the things An Zixi bought. After flipping through it for a while, she said to An Zixi, “Zixi, it turns out that you’re going to buy something for the baby in your stomach today! Then why didn’t you tell me in advance! I want to accompany you! But why don’t I have clothes! But it’s good that mother and you go buy something for the baby.”
Hearing Madam Xu say that An Zixi was buying for the baby, Master Xu was interested and stood up from the sofa. He also walked towards An Zixi’s shopping. She prepared to see what An Zixi had bought for the baby.
Lin Qiyuan and An Zixi looked at each other and smiled when they heard Madam Xu mention clothes. An Zixi said, “Mom, I’m not going to buy clothes outside. The clothes I discussed with Xiao Qi today have no special meaning, so I’m going to personally design clothes for the baby and then customize them. Let the clothes be filled with my love.”
Hearing An Zixi’s words, Elder Xu and Madam Xu were stunned for a moment. Then Elder Xu smiled and said, “This is a good idea. Why didn’t we think of that before? If the baby found out that his clothes were personally designed by his mother, the baby would definitely be very happy.”
But Mrs. Xu was a little unhappy, “Isn’t that why I can’t buy clothes for the baby? I don’t know how to design clothes, so I can’t give anything to the baby, right?” Mrs. Xu couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed at the thought of not needing her.
When Elder Xu saw this, he hurriedly held Madam Xu in his arms and said, “Old woman, who said you can’t do anything! Don’t you need someone to look after the child in the future? When the child is born, you don’t have to follow me to manage the company’s affairs. You just have to play with your grandson at home and take good care of him. Wait for Zi Xi to accompany me to the company.”
After Old Xu finished speaking, An Zixi hurriedly said, “Yes, Mom, I definitely won’t be able to accompany the baby every day in the future. When the time comes, I will have to work hard with you, so you don’t need to worry at all, because there are still a lot of places for the baby to need you in the future!” And you have to design clothes for the baby with me! “Although you don’t know how to design, you can tell me what you think and I’ll add it in!”
‘”Yes, Auntie, you don’t have to worry. There will be more places for the baby to need you in the future. Besides, Zi Xi can’t design clothes for the baby forever! So she definitely has to buy clothes in the future. When Zi Xi works, she won’t have time to design clothes for the baby. At that time, you can follow your thoughts.”
Hearing the three of them persuade her, Madam Xu understood a lot, so she smiled and said, “Alright, I know. I’m not sad anymore. It’s getting late. You three can chat here! I’ll go cook for you.”
“Mom, I’ll go with you! Just let Xiao Qi chat with Dad. I’ll accompany you.”
Madam Xu nodded and led An Zixi into the kitchen. Elder Xu and Lin Qiyuan sat on the sofa and began to chat. Elder Xu had to roughly understand what the two of them had done today and ask Lin Qiyuan to tell him what had happened to An Zixi.
Because he wanted to use this method to make up for his previous vacancies. In the past, he did not participate in An Zixi’s life, but he could understand An Zixi’s life. Lin Qiyuan knew what Elder Xu was thinking, so he patiently told Elder Xu about An Zixi’s past.
An Zixi looked at Madam Xu’s busy figure in the kitchen and felt that Madam Xu was really much thinner than before. Moreover, when she looked carefully at the many white hairs hidden in her black hair, An Zixi couldn’t help but feel sad, because she knew that the main reason for this was because Madam Xu was worried about her.
So Fang Kexin said, “Mom, I saw pictures of you and Dad before today. There’s a big difference between the past and the future. You and Dad are much older. I know that you’ve been worried about me these past few years. Dad and Mom, we won’t leave anymore. I won’t let you worry anymore.”
Madam Xu did not expect An Zixi to look at their previous photos, nor did she expect An Zixi to clearly see the changes in the photos. Therefore, Madam Xu was stunned and wondered how she would comfort An Zixi.
But before Madam Xu could think of anything, An Zixi hugged Madam Xu from behind and said, “Mom, I know that there must have been some reason why you lost me back then. However, we will never be separated again. I want to make you look as cheerful as before.”
Hearing An Zixi’s words, Madam Xu was really gratified. She put her hands on An Zixi’s and hugged her own hands and said, “Good child, thank the heavens for letting us find you. In the future, your father and I will definitely protect you well. We will never let you leave, nor will we let you get hurt again. We will compensate you for all the tears you’ve eaten these past few years.”
“Mom, I don’t want any compensation. I just hope that in the future, our family will live together forever and never separate again.”
“Zixi, don’t worry. No matter what, we won’t be separated anymore.”
An Zixi quietly hugged Madam Xu for a while before letting her go. The widow herself stood aside again and did not disturb Madam Xu’s cooking. An Zixi really wanted to personally cook a meal for his wife and Elder Xu while watching her cook.
However, she knew that Madam Xu would not let her make a move now, so she could only give up this idea and prepare to personally cook a meal for the two old men after the child was born.
With An Zixi accompanying Madam Xu in cooking, it was almost time for a sumptuous dinner to be served. Madam Xu arranged An Zixi directly in the dining hall. The living room she went to was called Elder Xu and Lin Qiyuan.
The dishes that An Zixi served to Elder Xu and Madam Xu during the meal made the two of them very happy. Their appetites were booming. After dinner, the four of them chatted in the living room for a while before sending Lin Qiyuan away. Elder Xu and Madam Xu also went back to their rooms to rest.
When An Zixi returned to her room, she took out a pen and paper and prepared to start designing clothes for the baby. Although it was already very late, she couldn’t wait any longer. She was afraid that her progress would be too slow and the baby wouldn’t be able to put on the clothes she designed after birth. So she made up her mind to come up with a satisfactory dress design as soon as possible.
Make this dress, let him put it on after the baby is born and give it to his baby as a gift. Let the baby feel her strong love.
