Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife

Chapter 332: Chapter 332: Looking for Trouble

When Qi Taiguo entered the room, Mother Qi was angrily stuffing clothes into the red, white, and blue bag she had brought, while Qi Fenglian was ceaselessly trying to persuade her, but upon seeing her younger brother, it was like she had seen a savior.

”Mom, calm down, Cheng Su is just talking nonsense. Don’t you know her temperament? She has to be the first in everything,” Qi Taiguo braved himself to step forward.

Mother Qi’s hands halted, and she swiftly looked over, her voice cold, ”Nonsense? It’s exactly because I know her temperament that I know she’s telling the truth. Tell me, is what she said all true? Did you two really agree to not have children for the next two years?”

Qi Fenglian kept making meaningful glances.

”This...” Qi Taiguo saw his older sister’s signals and truly found it difficult to speak.

”Well then, Cheng Su said I’m being fooled like a fool, but it seems you two are the ones treating me like a fool! Here I was, thinking there might be something wrong with your health, and I went out of my way to drag her to get checked. All my efforts were in vain; it turns out you two had colluded in advance. I’m the fool, I’m truly a fool!” Mother Qi began to tear up as she spoke, and her tears started flowing.

Qi Taiguo felt a throbbing pain at his temples and involuntarily reached up to press his forehead, saying, ”Mom, it’s not that we conspired, we just had a mutual agreement.”

Qi Fenglian tugged at him and deliberately scolded, ”What nonsense are you spouting at a time like this? If you have any difficulties leading to such a decision, just speak up, so mom can understand and be sympathetic!”

”No need, I don’t have that much face for them to care; let them be. Once their wings are hardened, they can do whatever they please. I, a simple country wife, can’t control them.” Mother Qi began packing again, and sternly glared at Qi Fenglian, ”Are you leaving or not? If you’re not going, then I, this old lady, will go by myself.”

”Mom, listen to me,” Qi Taiguo walked over, pressed her to sit down on the bed, and said, ”Mom, we also carefully discussed and planned before making this decision.”

”What plan? What could be more important than having kids? Out with it,” Mother Qi scoffed.

”It’s not that it’s more important, but our careers have just started, and we want to create better conditions, so your grandchild can have a head start in life!”

Mother Qi opened her mouth to speak, but Qi Fenglian interjected, ”Mom, first listen to what he has to say, there’s no rush to scold him.”

Hearing her daughter say this, Mother Qi had to hold back.

”Mom, look at Cheng Su now. She opened a restaurant, and she’s partnered to run a factory. You’ve seen how busy she is, right? Not to mention, she’s even signed up to go back to studying, to retake the college entrance exam. If she has a child now, what’s going to happen to all these things?” Qi Taiguo tried to speak in a gentle tone.

”What? She’s retaking the college entrance exam?” Mother Qi was so surprised she widened her eyes and then burst into laughter, ”That’s ridiculous. She’s already a married woman, so why go to college? Isn’t that just nonsense? If she was capable, why didn’t she do it before? She stopped attending school after her first year of high school, and now when she should be having children, she talks about college? I think she’s just idle and causing trouble.”

Qi Fenglian was also taken aback, but thinking of Cheng Su’s ways, she chose to remain silent.

”Mom, if she has this aspiration, I will support her. Besides, wouldn’t it reflect well on me if other people can say that my wife is a college graduate? That would be something to be proud of, wouldn’t it?” Qi Taiguo spoke slowly, ”Even if we don’t consider my pride, just think about our future child. His mother will be a college graduate, and his father a military officer. You see how envious others will be?”
