Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife

Chapter 330: Chapter 330: Stepping on the Reverse Scale

Cheng Su returned home with a belly full of anger, with Mother Qi trailing behind her like a wronged little wife who had done something wrong.

Concerned, Qi Taiguo had been waiting at home early. Seeing Cheng Su come back, he didn’t even take a close look at her expression and asked in a hurry, ”How did it go? What illness does the doctor say my mother has?”

Cheng Su looked at him and scoffed. Annoyed, she said, ”Your mother is very healthy, according to the doctor. She could live another few decades without any problems, so there’s no need to worry.”

This...

It was then that Qi Taiguo felt something was off. Cheng Su wasn’t a spiteful person, so why would she say something like that? Seeing her so hurried and angry, he couldn’t help but feel strange and asked, ”What’s going on here?”

Cheng Su glared at Mother Qi as she entered, snorted coldly, and said, ”Go ask your mother!”

With that, she slammed the door and went into the room.

Qi Taiguo frowned and looked toward Qi Fenglian, who was also feeling a bit baffled.

When Mother Qi came in and saw Cheng Su throwing a tantrum, her wronged little wife act disappeared instantly. She said, ”Hey, who is she getting angry at like this? Look at that temper, she’s nearly breaking the door!”

”Mom, what’s going on here?” Qi Taiguo asked, his intuition telling him that there must have been some dispute between his wife and mother.

Since getting married, apart from that one big argument with Li Qiulan, he hadn’t seen her lose her temper like this at anyone. Yet today, she was incredibly furious.

His old mother must have crossed Cheng Su’s bottom line!

”Yes, Mom? What’s the matter, how did the check-up go?” Qi Fenglian asked.

”Nothing. How severe could it be?” Mother Qi stammered.

”Mom...” Qi Taiguo’s face grew stern.

Seeing this, Mother Qi felt uncomfortable and said, ”What could be wrong? I just took her for a medical examination, saw the doctor—what’s got her so angry?”

When Qi Fenglian heard this, she felt a chill down her spine and asked hastily, ”Mom, what doctor did you take her to? It wasn’t the gynecologist, was it?”

”A woman giving birth—what other kind of doctor would it be?” Mother Qi muttered.

”Mom, you weren’t dizzy, but you made up an excuse to take Taiguo’s wife to the hospital?” The color on Qi Fenglian’s face changed slightly, and she glanced at Taiguo, no wonder Cheng Su was so angry.

”What’s the big deal about seeing a doctor? She’s perfectly fine; her body has no issues. What’s there to fear about the doctor finding something? Isn’t it because she hasn’t had any sign of pregnancy for so long? I am just worried for you both!” Mother Qi said, annoyed by her daughter’s mildly reproachful tone, and her voice began to rise.

Qi Taiguo felt a headache coming on and said, ”Mom, you should have at least told us first. It’s no wonder she’s upset with you being so secretive.”

”Would she have gone if I’d told her outright?” Mother Qi, irritated at her son speaking up for Cheng Su, glared and retorted, ”Are you blaming me now, blaming me, your mother, for meddling too much and upsetting your wife? Fine then, I raised you with great difficulty, and this is how you repay me, forgetting your mother as soon as you have a wife.”

As Mother Qi spoke, her voice grew louder, and tears of injustice welled up in her eyes. ”If you can’t stand to have me around, I won’t obstruct your view any longer. I’ll leave right now, go back to my hometown. I clearly don’t have the fortune to enjoy the blessings of having a son like you!”

As she spoke, she started to rush toward her room.

Qi Fenglian hurriedly tried to calm her, ”Mom, Taiguo doesn’t mean it that way at all, look how you’re taking it.” She then signaled Qi Taiguo with desperate gestures.

Qi Taiguo, feeling a headache himself, could only say kindly, ”Mom, Big Sister is right, I didn’t mean it like that, please don’t be angry.”

”What do you mean by it then? Are you not just siding with your wife because you find me disagreeable!” Mother Qi pointed at Cheng Su’s room door and raised her voice, ”She’s been married into the Qi family for so long and there’s not a peep. I just took her to see a doctor out of concern, and she has the nerve to lose her temper?”
