Switched Marriage The Coddled Little Wife novel Chapter 680

Chapter 680: Chapter 680: Gratitude

Qin Juan knew this person’s character. The more she paid attention to him now, the less proper he became, without considering where they were.

After all, they were the managers of the store, and Jia Liang was in charge of two stores, yet not at all steady.

She simply turned her head to look elsewhere.

Jia Liang’s gaze finally fell on her belly, and he went to work with a smile.

That evening, the two of them went home together.

Old Mrs. Jia hadn’t gone to bed yet. Hearing the noise outside, she knew her son and daughter-in-law were back.

She slipped on her shoes, came out of the room, and saw the two of them, her gaze falling directly on Qin Juan.

"Why are you home so late today? Tired, huh? Did you feel uncomfortable today? What did you have for dinner? Want me to make you something else to eat?"

Qin Juan stepped forward and supported our old lady’s arm, "Mom, I’m doing well, you don’t need to worry about me. I’ve been feeling much better these days."

"Oh dear, no matter how much better you feel, how much better can it be? I’m also a woman and I’ve been through that time. Pregnancy is naturally a tiring thing for a woman, and you can never be as brisk as when alone."

After finishing, Old Mrs. Jia glared at her son, "And you, didn’t Mr. Lin tell you to watch over these two stores? Still, you let Juanzi come back so late. Spending a whole day at the store is exhausting. I think you should talk to Mr. Lin; why not just let Juanzi stop working? We’re not bound to live a lavish life; the current state is already better than many families. There’s never enough money to earn; people are what’s important. Juanzi is Mr. Lin’s older sister-in-law. If we ask, Mr. Lin will definitely let her off."

Jia Liang glanced at Qin Juan.

In fact, what Old Mrs. Jia said was exactly what he wanted to say.

When he found out that Qin Juan was pregnant, Jia Liang discussed this matter with her, but she refused.

Qin Juan’s reason for refusal was simple.

In her previous marriage, she was also persuaded by her mother-in-law and husband to rest at home after getting pregnant.

Saying it was to rest at home, all the work at Zhang Family fell on her, and her job was given to Zhang Wenbin’s sister.

She certainly knew Old Mrs. Jia and Jia Liang were not like that, but she also wanted to realize her self-worth.

She really liked her job at Qin’s Restaurant and wanted to do something for the sister-in-law who saved her from the pit.

After knowing Qin Juan’s thoughts, Jia Liang didn’t push much, only noted that her reactions were bigger these days and wondered if she might change her mind.

No matter what decision his wife made, he would support her.

Qin Juan smiled gently and reassured Old Mrs. Jia, "Mom, I’ve truly felt much better these days and am already accustomed to this life. If you really let me idle around, I might get sick from inactivity. But it will be hard on mom later; when the baby is born, you’ll have to help look after them."

Old Mrs. Jia immediately smiled, her face wrinkling, "What hardship would there be? I’ve been looking forward to this day for over ten years now. Just rest assured and leave the child to me. I’ve got plenty of experience taking care of kids now; look how well Xiao Long has grown under my care."

"Yes, mom is the most meticulous caregiver. The child is blessed to have a grandmother like you."

Qin Juan said from the heart, for Old Mrs. Jia was exceptionally good to both Xiao Long and Ningning.

From the start of her pregnancy, Old Mrs. Jia had been filled with anticipation for this child.

Though Qin Juan often compared the Jia Family mother and son to the previous Zhang Family,

it was instinctive due to her personal experiences.

It was precisely because of the comparison with Zhang Family that she was grateful to heaven for not treating her harshly, thankful for meeting such a mother-in-law and husband.

Qin Juan had eaten well at the restaurant and didn’t have a habit of eating late-night snacks.

Old Mrs. Jia boiled some water on the stove for them to wash and soak their feet.
