It was said that in a marriage, the most beautiful moment was a wedding. In the following long years, the triviality of the rice, oil, and salt were like a dull knife, slicing back and forth on one's own flesh, sometimes feeling no pain, sometimes cutting out a wound at once, and sometimes adding a new wound to the old one.
The word that Nanny Liu used was very precise: "Awesome."
Some years passed after a short period of time. However, there were many difficult days in this process that only he could understand.
Fortunately, in addition to these hardships, there were still good things in life.
When I dragged my tired body home, I saw a different scene.
All the furniture that might have been harmful to the child had been removed. The corners of the dining room table were inlaid with soft leather, the sofa in the living room had been moved to make room for the child to play. Various wooden horses, swings, slides, and other toys were neatly placed on the floor.
The workers were going in and out of the house while someone was cooking in the kitchen. Qian Jin and Zaizai's clothes were already rotating in the washing machine. During this period of time, the chaos had suddenly been replaced by methodical work.
As for my husband, Sheng Yun, he was standing in the doorway with a bunch of pink carnations. His eyes were full of guilt …
"What's going on? How did it change so much? " I carried the girl in my arms and put her in the crib.
Sheng Yun closed the bedroom door, affectionately handed the flowers to me and said: "Wife, you've worked hard. I know you've been tired lately, and I don't understand you well enough. Today, I specially came to apologize to you. "
I took the flowers from him, and the smell of them assailed my nostrils.
I looked at Sheng Yun, at his still tall and lofty figure, at his still handsome face, and suddenly felt that nothing was important, that I still loved him, still deeply loved the man in front of me.
I put the flowers on the table and threw myself into his arms.
He hugged me tightly and planted a deep kiss on my forehead. "Mom told me that you went to the hospital alone with your daughter today. You didn't even tell me. I had a long, hard afternoon, and I wondered what made you stop relying on me when things went wrong. I think I must have let you down. I'm sorry, my lady. "
"I just feel that when I choose my present life, I should be able to bear all the hardships that my current life brings to me. I don't want to be the same bitch I was last night. I think I used to be able to face everything on my own. The two children will not embarrass me, and neither will the fat figure. " "No," I said.
"If so, what is the point of my husband's existence? What was the meaning of my hard work? If I can't take care of my family, what was my purpose in marrying you and having you bear my children? Wife, from now on, I won't let you suffer like this anymore. "This period of time is a period of dereliction of duty for a husband like me. In the future, I promise that I won't let this kind of thing happen again." Sheng Yun muttered, then he cupped my face and kissed me on the lips.
I was wearing the most ordinary and mundane clothes, and I had no makeup whatsoever on my face. He didn't turn his back on me at all. He still kissed me as he used to, without any shunning or evasion.
This was the feeling that once fascinated me and made me give up everything to form a family with him.
"Hubby, what are you busy with these days? I know it's for my own good that you didn't tell me, but I should have the right to know about the company. " "No," I said.
"I'm not telling you, but I wanted to come in front of you after a while with a school report with full marks. Wife, you're tired enough now. I don't want you to worry about anything else. I'll tell you in detail another day. Can we not talk about this today? Do you remember what day it was? " Sheng Yun asked me with a smile.
"Ah …" "Zaizai, Zaizai still hasn't come back from school." I suddenly thought of this and cried out.
"I've already sent someone to pick up Zaizai, don't worry," he quickly said to me, and then he said, "Wife, quickly think about what day it is today."
I was trying to think of a way to enter Sheng Yun's romantic world when the daughter began to cry in her crib.
I didn't have time to think about anything else as I quickly ran over to pick up the gold. Sheng Yun walked over and took the gold from my hands, then said to me: "Wife, what do you need to do, let me do it."
"You need to feed it, don't you?" I took the gold from him again.
This sentence inexplicably poked at both of us as we laughed. Sheng Yun and I both laughed. I took off my clothes and started to feed the money. Sheng Yun embraced me as he stared at the scene. He suddenly whispered in my ear, "Wife, I also want to eat now …"
CHAPTER 253 - SWEET FIRST ANNIVERSARY
I turned to look at him, and he brushed my hair behind my ear with his hand and looked at me with a doting smile.
It's been a long time since we've seen each other like this.
When the girl was asleep, I put her on the crib. Sheng Yun couldn't wait to pull me down and lie on the bed. Then, he started to kiss me crazily.
"Would you not like my current appearance?"
"No, I think it's beautiful. Like Mona Lisa, she has a unique kind of beauty."
"Would you still love me if I never lost weight?"
"Yes, I will always love you until the end of my life. But from now on, you're not allowed to ask such questions. Your husband is not a normal person. "
"What do you love about me?" Encouraged by his love, I finally found the courage to wrap my arms around his neck and passionately respond to his kiss.
"I love your tenacity, your patience, your soul. I love the sacrifices you made for me, the sacrifices you made for my children. I love you, my First Lady. I love you …" Sheng Yun kept whispering in my ear. Just when I was completely immersed in his love words, he suddenly slipped in.
At that moment, I shivered all over.
It was as painful as the first time we were together...
When he saw me frown, he didn't dare move. "Does it hurt?" he asked.
I nodded.
He comforted me with a warm kiss, then whispered, "I'm sorry, wife, I couldn't control myself."
"No, continue …" I took his hand and looked at him lovingly and said, "I have been carrying out my duty as a mother for so long, but I have forgotten my duty as a wife. My husband used to be a brave general. For a hero to live in such a useless place, you must be holding your breath, right? "
With my easy teasing, he also became relaxed, he said: "I'm worried about your pain, but today, I really want to have you again. I feel like we're back where we were before. "
"It's okay. Pain is normal. The doctor said so too." "No," I said.
Thus, Sheng Yun tried again. This time, his movements were quite gentle, and after my initial discomfort with the past, I began to relax.
Sheng Yun did a lot of things to make me forget the pain... It gave me a different kind of feeling.
At this moment, the bedroom door was suddenly pushed open. Zaizai walked in waving his small hands and shouted: "Mom, dad, what are you doing?"
The moment Zaizai opened the door, Sheng Yun had already pulled the blanket over us.
However, Zaizai's question still made both of us feel extremely awkward … I have seen such a hilarious scene on the Internet countless times, but I didn't expect that we also experienced such a scene.
Fortunately, Sheng Yun moved quickly. When Zaizai climbed up, we were both dressed and lying down.
Sheng Yun raised Zaizai with a smile and said, "Why didn't you knock on the door when you came in, darling?"
"Daddy will accompany me to play on the swing! Father will accompany me! " Zaizai shouted while pinching Sheng Yun's face.
Sheng Yun quickly made a "hush" gesture and then whispered to Zaizai, "Little sister is still sleeping and mother needs to rest. Dad will accompany Zaizai, Dad will cook for Zaizai and Mom tonight, ok? "
> The father and son walked out while talking and laughing. Sheng Yun didn't forget to turn around and blink at me. He pointed at the bedside table and said: "Wife, there's a surprise in the closet."
After the father and son had gone out, I opened the drawer of the bedside table and saw a delicate lavender box.
At that moment, a knowing smile appeared on my face.
I opened the box. Inside was a bright navy-blue heart-shaped gem surrounded by tiny diamonds, paired with a thin platinum chain. All the letters were strung together by the name of our family.
I took the necklace out of the box and saw a heart-shaped card underneath. It said, "Happy wedding anniversary, wife!"
When I saw this, I realized that today was the day of our wedding a year ago.
If he hadn't been so attentive, I would have completely neglected such an important day.
I looked at the familiar handwriting on the card, at the necklace, and I was filled with genuine joy. Then I saw that there was a small line of words on the card: "Wife, please open the middle closet. There is a surprise on the third floor."
I quickly put down the card and opened the wardrobe in the middle, following the message on the card. There was a large dark blue box on the third floor.
I took out the box and found that it was a dark blue evening gown, much looser than the ones I had worn before.
The instant I took it out, my heart tightened.
Can I still wear such a gown? The only thing I can match right now is a loose sweatshirt and sweatpants!
When I looked at the dress in front of me, I felt a mixture of emotions. I held it up in front of the full-length mirror and realized it seemed to fit.
There was also a note in the box, which read: "Wife, I love you more than ever. Thank you for everything you've done for this family! Please open the wardrobe on the far right. There is a third surprise inside. "
I put down my dress and opened the right-hand closet to find a pair of beautiful silver high heels, one of the most popular this year.
I couldn't wait to get my shoes out, so I tried them out and found they fit.
I held my dress and shoes in front of the mirror and looked at myself in the mirror, fat and bloated, and my heart skipped a beat.
But his intentions are precious, and I have to try them no matter what. The first anniversary, for us, is a very important day.
I mustered up the courage to put on the evening gown, which, surprisingly, fitted me perfectly, and was well cut, and although it still looked plump, I could still make out the curves.
I put on my evening dress and heels, sat down at the dressing table, took out my long-unused makeup, and began to work on my eyebrows in the mirror.
I know I won't be able to recover for a while, but I'm slowly beginning to accept this fat self in the mirror... I believe that this is only a short period of time, and that I will definitely be able to return to the past.
Unknowingly, Sheng Yun quietly walked in. He walked in front of the dressing table, took out that gemstone necklace from the box, and put it on my neck. Then, he leaned over and kissed my neck.
He said, "Wife, you're still beautiful like this, and even more beautiful than before."
"Really?" I asked softly.
He took my hand and kissed it lightly on his lips. "Of course it's true," he said. I like you now, and I hope my wife is as confident as ever. In my eyes, you are the most beautiful woman in the world. "
I stood up and turned to look at him. He looked at me approvingly and touched my face with his hand.
"I'm sorry," I said, "I forgot that today is the first anniversary. I was talking to you last night and arguing with you. I'm sorry."
"It's my fault. I didn't care about your feelings. I didn't care about your emotions. In the future, if I go home and fall asleep, you can wake me up in time. From then on, you did not sleep, and I did not sleep either. I will never let you face everything alone again. " Sheng Yun looked at me and said while feeling sorry for me.
"Hubby …" I looked at him emotionally. My heart was like a desert that had suddenly met with rain. My anxiety and mania had all calmed down. All that was left in my heart was peace and serenity. "I love you."
"I love you more." He smiled, then embraced me and said, "I've prepared dinner for us. Outside, I've prepared a gift for you."
"There's more? "What is it?" I asked in surprise.
"You'll know when we get out." Sheng Yun laughed.
I laughed heartily and followed him out the door. I was surprised to find three middle-aged women in the same overalls standing outside, side by side at the table, bowing slightly as we came out.
Sheng Yun introduced me with a smile, "This is Sister Zhang. She will be in charge of the meals and the supplementary food for the two babies. She will be in charge of Sister Li. She will be in charge of Zaizai's delivery and care. Every day, there will be hour workers who will come to clean up the house. Also, my wife, don't drive by yourself anymore, I've specially hired a chauffeur for you. He will be in charge of everything you go to in the future. "
"This …" Surprised, I whispered, "Are they professional enough? Are they competent? Where did you find it? "
"I hired them at a senior institution. They were all trained professionally and of the highest standard." It was my negligence to make my wife work so hard. I didn't realize how tired you were until we had a fight yesterday. I can't let you get so tired. I married you to make you happy. You don't have to worry about them leaving. I've already signed a three-year contract with them. If they cancel their contract ahead of time, they will pay us the penalty. " Sheng Yun said.
"Hubby …" I burst into tears of joy, unable to describe what I was feeling.
At that moment, not because of the unexpected arrival of the three babysitters made me happy, but because of my husband, Sheng Yun, who noticed my emotions at every moment, cared for me from the bottom of his heart, did not despise me because I was fat and fat, he knew that he had reflected on me and given me the care I needed in time … That's what makes me so happy.
He gave me warmth when I needed it, he gave me arms when I needed it, that's what a real husband can do for his wife, that's what a woman gets when she gives it all.
That night, for the first time in my life, we had a great dinner, with the nannies doing their job, and I felt an unprecedented sense of relief, as if we were back in the world of two people.
I drank red wine with Sheng Yun. After the wine, he struggled a little bit and carried me all the way to the bedroom. "Wife, I love you..." he said.
CHAPTER 254 - TRUST DIFFICULTY
"Can they take good care of Zaizai and Qian Jin?" I was still worried about that when Sheng Yun threw me on the bed.
"Don't worry, they are people who have received professional training and experience in parenting. I can guarantee that you won't hear any crying at night. And I've installed 24-hour surveillance in all the baby's rooms, so you can relax with us at night, okay? " Sheng Yun said gently.
His hand moved erratically back and forth over me. We drank red wine as we immersed ourselves in this precious world of two.
Love needs to calm down to experience, deep down, I can truly feel that deep love from him, he still deeply loves me, and my heart, also deeply loves him.
As expected, I didn't hear any crying that night. After the love affair ended, I rested my head on his arm. I finally slept peacefully for the first time since the birth.
He slept soundly, sleeping until noon. "When I woke up, there was a glass of warm milk, a sandwich, and a poached egg on a tray by the bedside table.
I sat up in bed and heard the sound of washing up in the bathroom. I knew that this was what Sheng Yun had prepared for me, and I immediately revealed a gratified smile.
I put on my pajamas and walked out. Everything in the living room was in order, the nanny in charge of taking care of the money was shaking the money in the cradle, the nanny in charge of taking care of Zaizai was playing with Zaizai while
the toys were sorted and put away neatly.
The other nanny, who was in charge of the meals, saw me up, so she hurried over and handed me the lunch list and asked me if it was all right.
Life suddenly became relaxed. I smiled and chatted with them for a while. I happily picked Zaizai up from the ground and teased him for a while. At this moment, Sheng Yun walked out of the room.
He was already dressed and in his business suit. He called to me, "Wife, come into the room for a moment."
I hurried in and closed the door. He took me in his arms and gently caressed my face. "Wife, I'm going to be busy again. With the three of them at home, I think it'll be a lot easier for you. I'm flying to the United States tonight. I'm taking a week with a couple of top executives. We're going to the United States, then Germany and Japan. I've tried to get the secretary to streamline the trip, but it'll take at least a week. "
"Hubby, I think if I rest for another month or so, I should be able to go back to work. Now that the three of them are here, it's much easier for me. " I heard him say that, so I said.
"I want you to be at home, not because I want you to take care of your children, but because I want you to take care of your body. He had invited the three of them here for the same reason. I want you to get well, so don't rush out to work. I will be responsible for my work. "Also, there is something I would like to discuss with you." Sheng Yun said.
I saw the solemnity in his eyes and knew it must be something important, so I said, "Go ahead."
"Right now, the power of the two groups is split between each other. It will be very difficult to manage them. Now that it's all my fault, I think so, "Sheng Yun pulled me down to a seat and then said slowly," Why don't we combine the two groups, merge the Xu family together, and unify it with Golden Age? This makes it easy to manage, and it also makes it easier for my staff to deploy. "
"What?" My heart sank. Although they were husband and wife, the fact that they were involved in some aspect of their interests still made me have an indescribable feeling in my heart.
