Dragon King Palace: Urban Affluent Son-in-Law
Chapter 1508: Waiting to Hold a Grandchild!
At this moment, Lin Chuxue’s mood was extremely tense.
The ultimate test had come; whether she and Jiang Feng could successfully pass depended on this moment!
She took out the two fake marriage certificates from her bag and handed them to Li Yaqin for inspection.
Li Yaqin took them and carefully scrutinized them, as if afraid of missing any detail.
Lin Chuxue’s heart was pounding like a drum, but she sat silently beside her mom, watching with Li Yaqin.
She tightly clenched her small hands, her knuckles turning white, and sweat seeping into her palms.
After a while, Li Yaqin finished looking at them, raised an eyebrow, and asked Lin Chuxue, "Just this?"
"Just this, what’s wrong?" Lin Chuxue felt her heart in her throat.
"You silly girl!"
Li Yaqin tapped her daughter’s head lightly with the two marriage certificates: "Turns out that Xiaofeng is even younger than you, and you’re still bullying him. What were you thinking?"
"Mom, what do you mean?" Lin Chuxue was bewildered, stunned.
"Mom’s telling you, in this lifetime, mom might not have other great skills, but I’m good at reading people! Xiaofeng is a good kid; he looks honest and reliable, and he listens to you. You better treat him well, understand? Be devoted and live a long life together!" Li Yaqin returned the marriage certificates to Lin Chuxue, speaking earnestly.
Lin Chuxue was taken aback; she realized that Li Yaqin hadn’t noticed anything was off and was more concerned about her relationship with Jiang Feng!
But, Li Yaqin seemed to have said it wrong, right?
Jiang Feng being honest and listening to her?
He clearly bullies her everywhere, takes advantage of her, and forces her to listen to him!
It seems Jiang Feng’s self-characterization was accurate; he was good at acting and gaining the trust of elders!
"Mom, I know! But I’m a woman after all; I can’t let him have his way in everything. Sometimes he needs to be held in check, or he’ll get out of line." Lin Chuxue said seriously.
The tone, as if she and Jiang Feng were really a couple, fighting for family dominance.
"You silly child!"
Li Yaqin sighed: "How many explanations do young couples living together need?"
She smiled and then dotingly said: "To be honest, before you both came back, especially before we met Xiaofeng, I was always worried sick for you."
"You said you’ve been working hard alone in another province; your dad and I can’t go over and help you. What if you met the wrong person and got deceived? We only have one daughter; wouldn’t that just break our hearts?"
"Even if you’re not deceived, if you find someone who doesn’t know how to cherish you, we’d still be worried!"
"You were raised with care and spoiling from a young age by your dad and me. How could we possibly trust you with someone who wouldn’t treat you well?"
"But now, seeing Xiaofeng, mom thinks you’ve got good taste! Now mom and dad can finally be at ease."
"Mom..."
Hearing her mother say this, Lin Chuxue’s nose stung, and she almost cried.
As expected, it’s true that her parents care the most about her!
But when she thought about the fact that it’s all just a deception, and in the end, it would bring sadness to her parents, she felt unbearably guilty, and very sorry for Li Yaqin.
Most importantly, if her mom and dad found out the real motive between her and Jiang Feng was for their money, how heartbroken would they be!
"Mom, your daughter is unfilial, sorry to you and dad..."
Lin Chuxue couldn’t help but have red eyes, blaming herself immensely.
Li Yaqin misunderstood her meaning, smiled and said, "Silly child, didn’t mom say? Those were mom’s past worries, but now you’ve met the right person, what is there to worry about? Now mom just hopes you and Jiang Feng will live a long, safe, and happy life together, without too much hardship..."
As mother and daughter were talking, Jiang Feng happened to come out of the kitchen looking helpless.
Since Lin Hanqing didn’t want his daughter to help, he certainly wouldn’t let his new son-in-law cook!
No matter how much Jiang Feng confessed he could cook, Lin Hanqing didn’t believe it and insisted on "chasing" him out.
"Hmm? What’s wrong with you two? Lin Chuxue, why are you crying?"
Jiang Feng looked at Lin Chuxue with confusion, then turned to Li Yaqin: "Aunt—"
"Still calling me Aunt?"
Li Yaqin rolled her eyes at him: "Time to change that!"
"Change?" Jiang Feng was puzzled.
"Silly kid, you’ve married my daughter. It’s time to call me mom!" Li Yaqin smiled gently: "Or were you planning to call me Aunt forever?"
"Uh..."
Jiang Feng felt awkward.
He couldn’t bring himself to say the word mom.
His mother had long passed, and besides, having been reborn for hundreds of years, invincible in the world, who would dare make him call them mom?
But right now, seeing Li Yaqin’s warm smile and Lin Chuxue’s pitifully pleading eyes, he reluctantly scratched his head and forced out, "Mom."
"Ah~"
Li Yaqin finally smiled in happiness, pulling Jiang Feng’s hand over, and placing her daughter’s pale jade-like hand in his, she smiled: "Jiang Feng, from now on, my precious daughter is officially in your care, you better take good care of her! Otherwise, I won’t let you off easily!"
"..."
Jiang Feng felt uneasy, it was becoming too formal, making him feel guilty and awkward.
But he still put on a calm smile and said: "Don’t worry, I will!"
At this moment, Lin Chuxue was already teary-eyed, looking at Jiang Feng with deep emotion and unspeakable gratitude, feeling that despite the immense guilt of bringing him back, being with Jiang Feng could make up for everything!
"Ha ha! That’s good! Mom recognizes you as my son-in-law!" Li Yaqin laughed: "By the way, Mom also prepared a big red envelope, take it!"
Saying so, she took a carefully wrapped red envelope from a box under the coffee table and handed it to Jiang Feng; it was bulging with cash.
"I can’t take this, how can I take your money..." Jiang Feng really felt uncomfortable, deceiving people was bad enough, but to also take their money, how could he be at peace?
"Jiang Feng, just take it, it’s a token of Mom’s intentions, and it’s also Jiangzhong’s custom, there will be another one from Dad later! If you don’t take it, it would seem impolite, you know!" Lin Chuxue reminded Jiang Feng to receive it, wiping her tears with a tissue.
Our mom...
Jiang Feng felt more embarrassed but helplessly accepted it with both hands: "In that case, thank you A... Mom!"
"That’s more like it!"
Li Yaqin’s face couldn’t hide her joy, then she said with a smile: "Alright, let’s get back on track. Now that you two are married, when do you plan to have children? I’m looking forward to quickly holding a grandchild with Old Lin!
