Chapter 1868: When I Gave Birth…

“We didn’t used to have things like this. When I gave birth, I started working only three days after giving birth. Now, you just lie in bed, and yet you are still being picky about your food,” An Jinwei’s mother said, dissatisfied.

An Jinwei’s expression showed a little impatience. This was obviously directed at Ning Shu, who had brought up the topic. She never stopped looking for trouble.

In An Jinwei’s opinion, his wife should do everything well, so that he could go to work without worries, and then relax at home.

Ning Shu ignored An Jinwei and coaxed her child.

This child would only feel safe if she was emotionally stable. If the child felt safe, she wouldn’t cry all the time, and it would also make things easier for Ning Shu.

For dinner, there was a bowl of pork knuckle soup, but it had very little meat. There was just a bit of fatty skin without any lean meat.

Smiling, Ning Shu picked up the bowl and walked out of the room. She went to the dining table and saw that there was a pot of pork feet and hind legs.

Ning Shu directly poured her bowl of soup into the pot and scooped out a bowl of meat.

At the dinner table, the An family looked at Ning Shu blankly. Ning Shu picked up a piece of meat and stuffed it into her mouth.

An Jinwei frowned. “What are you doing?”

“Just eating. It doesn’t make sense for you to eat meat, while I drink soup. If you do this, we really can’t get along with each other.” Ning Shu licked the oil off her fingers.

“You really…” An Jinwei looked at Ning Shu, who had eaten ‘til her whole face was covered in oil, with disgust. He was very dissatisfied with the trouble Ning Shu caused.

“Chen Ning, the elders are still at the table. How can you act like this?” An Jinwei’s mother was dissatisfied. “If there were guests here, the An family would lose all their face with you acting like this. Even if you don’t care, we do.”

Ning Shu wasn’t using chopsticks. She just picked up the meat and ate it with her fingers. When she heard her mother-in-law’s words, she said, “You know, seeing you guys eat such a lavish meal while I get soup really makes me want to flip the table. Maybe next time I will…”

“Chen Ning, are you crazy? How dare you speak like this!” An Jinwei’s mother was shaking with anger. She felt that her authority had been challenged.

“Actually, do you know that I’m sick?” Ning Shu had a weird look on her face. “I have severe postpartum depression, so I might do some uncontrollable things.”

“Actually, flipping the table is such a trifling thing. I’m more worried that I’ll do something that hurts other people.” Ning Shu tilted her head and said this with a smile.

Ning Shu smiled at An Jinwei. Although it was a brilliant smile, it also had a bone-deep coldness. An Jinwei’s heart jumped and a thought emerged in his heart.

His wife really was sick.

“What are you making trouble for? Do you have to throw this family into disarray before you’re satisfied?” Her father-in-law, who usually didn’t get involved in matters at home, finally spoke. He looked at Ning Shu. “You’re the daughter-in-law. Act like one. You should be striving to create a stable and peaceful family.”

Ning Shu laughed silently, open-mouthed. This peace and stability relied on others suffering grievances and making sacrifices in order to maintain it.

Making any tiny request was like murdering the harmony of the family.

The father and son had the same values and expected others to handle everything. If others had any grievances, they had to bear it silently. Those two were the emperors.

This kind of peace was kept by sacrificing certain people and in this family, Chen Ning belonged to those sacrificed.

Dedication and sacrifice were not respected. They just thought of it as her duty. She was supposed to protect this kind of joke?

Ning Shu clutched her heart. “I’m so sad, so angry! I really want to flip this table!”

While talking, Ning Shu grasped the table with her hands, then lifted it up. The bowls and chopsticks started sliding off.

An Jinwei’s parents turned pale and An Jinwei stretched out his hand to pull Ning Shu away. Ning Shu let go and the table fell. The soup splashed everywhere, making the table of dishes extremely messy.

An Jinwei’s mother was closest to the soup pot. Since Ning Shu quickly picked up the table and then let go, the soup splashed onto her body. She immediately jumped up and wiped the soup on her body with a tissue.
