The chaebol's little wife: Uncle, you are going to spoil me!

Chapter 3201 The Pregnant Woman's Grievance

Xiao Bei had been feeling stifled for too long since her parents came to visit. She couldn't eat or drink certain things, and even though she had a washing machine and dryer, her mother insisted on hand-washing her clothes and hanging them on the balcony to air dry. "That's fine," she said. "But my underwear and stuff... well, I'm embarrassed about it. I keep it in my master bedroom, and Wang Dang sometimes washes it with me. My mom saw it and said that as a boy, I shouldn't touch those things. I told her she was old-fashioned and pedantic. If I wash it myself, my mom feels that since she's there to serve me, it's pointless for her to do it herself. She takes my clothes outside to wash them, but she puts them with other people's dirty clothes, sometimes even close to their socks."

Xiao Bei argued several times, and her mother pointed at her and said, "You grew up like this, what's wrong with you? Now that you're all grown up and living your own life, you're starting to look down on your dad and me for being old-fashioned? I won't even come to help take care of your child if you're like this."

"If you don't want to come, then don't come. I won't let you bring it to me."

The mother and daughter started arguing again.

Enraged, Xiao Bei ran out.

Finally, the biological mother went to her mother-in-law's shop to complain, saying that her daughter had grown up and was no longer interested in her.

Beckham's father pulled his wife aside, saying, "You fool! Who complains about their daughter to their in-laws?"

"I feel wronged, but I can't say anything."

"Incomprehensible!"

"Fine, if you two both dislike me and think I'm in the way, then I'll leave."

But Xiao Bei's mother was hesitant to actually leave. Childbirth is a life-threatening experience for her daughter, and she only felt at ease with her own mother by her side. Having been through it herself, she knew that no matter how good a mother-in-law was or how attentive a husband was, when they saw the photos of postpartum women with lochia, who could be as forgiving and heartbroken as a biological mother would?

Xiao Bei's mother was so angry that she sat by the roadside and cried in the middle of the night. "It's true that when children grow up, they can't live together anymore. Even my own daughter can't get along with me."

Xiao Bei was also full of grievances, "I told my mom that I don't need her or my dad to do anything, just stay by my side. Don't try to take care of me, and don't be moved by your own sacrifices. My mom saw some quack doctor on Douyin say that I can't eat too much salt before I die, so my food is tasteless every day!"

I went to my mother-in-law's house for dinner, and my mother chased after me and said I was heartless.

I wanted to eat hot pot, not spicy, not too strong-flavored, just mushroom broth, but they wouldn't let me have any of that. Then I had the clear broth, which my husband had already cooked for me, but my mom wouldn't let me eat it. Then, right in front of me, she threw my whole pot of food, chopsticks and bowl, into the trash can! Waaaaah, waaaah, waaaah, I'm so wronged!

Duan Ying listened, feeling immense pressure.

Xiao Zhu had already heard it all. "Attorney Duan, Auntie also made Xiao Bei and her husband sleep separately."

"Sleep separately?" Duan Ying asked.

Xiao Bei nodded, already in tears. "My mom said Wang Dang hadn't experienced this before and was worried we wouldn't be able to handle my symptoms in the middle of the night, so she told me to separate from Wang Dang and she would sleep with me. I didn't want to sleep with my mom, but she said Wang Dang works hard and has to work the next day."

I would go to her room without knocking. Sometimes she would lock the door, and I would get a lecture from her.

Xiao Bei was cheerful from the time she was pregnant until she was close to giving birth. After her parents came to visit, she almost became depressed.

"It's not that serious. Your mother is just worried about you. She cares too much and wants to do more for you," Duan Ying comforted her.

When the car arrived at the entrance of the residential area, Xiao Zhu got out to register the information, and then the gate was raised.

Fortunately, Xiao Zhu had bought a parking space in advance, so even though she didn't have a car, she could park directly there.

The three went upstairs.

When Duan Ying heard her apprentice complain about being wronged, she could indeed understand.

"Master, you are also an only child. How do you manage to balance the relationship between the two families, and live so close to each other?"

Both she and Wang Dang are only children, and their parents will be living together to take care of them from now on. Xiao Bei felt like her world was about to collapse.

Xiao Zhu once again felt that marriage was never a good thing.

If she wants solace for her soul, then success in her career can also provide that solace.

I poured Xiao Bei a glass of water, and she started complaining again, "I was thirsty last night, but my mom said that drinking too much water would cause edema and increase the risks of childbirth. She told me to go to sleep and drink water first thing in the morning."

Duan Ying: "..."

Beckham: "..."

Wang Dang's car was already parked on the side of the road near Xiao Zhu's house. He didn't book a room at a hotel because if something really happened, nothing was faster than running downstairs.

Duan Ying was somewhat powerless in this matter.

In interpersonal relationships, a sense of boundaries is sometimes very important.

I'm so glad I bought a downstairs apartment for my parents to live in.

“But my husband and I don’t earn enough to buy another house in Z city specifically for my parents to live in.” Xiao Bei also understands the reality.

While Duan Ying remained silent, Gu Nuannuan called, "Hello, Nuannuan?"

"Hmm, how is Beckham?"

"She's crying and talking at Xiao Zhu's house right now. How did you know?"

Gu Xiaonuan: "Aunt Wang didn't know what to do, so she called my mom. I'm staying at my house tonight, and I was with her when she called."

Duan Ying got up and went to the bathroom to answer the phone.

"Waaah, Sister Zhu, how come Gu Lu knows about this too?"

Gu Nuannuan is Wang Dang's older sister. Does she think I have too many problems on my side?

"Don't worry, don't you know Gu Lu's character? Otherwise, why would Duan Lu avoid taking the phone with us and insist on the other side coming up with dirty tricks?"

Beckham was still a little worried.

Ten minutes later, Duan Ying came out.

"Master~"

Duan Ying leaned against the door, lost in thought for a long while, hesitating and wavering, but when he thought that it was Nuan Nuan's idea, he instantly became determined, "Where's Xiao Dang?"

“My husband said we’re staying at a nearby hotel.”

"Call them out for a meal."

"what?"

"Let's eat hot pot."

Little Bei was immediately moved to tears again, "Waaah, Master~"

She hasn't eaten yet tonight.

Wang Dang arrived quickly. Duan Ying asked, "Did you sleep in the carriage just now?"

Beckham immediately looked at her husband, "Didn't you say we were staying at a hotel?"

"Staying in a hotel takes up too much time." It's more convenient in the car.

"Wang Dang, Xiao Bei wants to eat hot pot, did you know that?"

"I know, I bought all the seasonings for her, and I cooked the meat, meatballs, and vegetables for her before leaving the house." Wang Dang had no idea that his wife had suffered so much at home.

Duan Ying said, "Let's go, let's stuff something in our stomachs first."

Xiao Zhu, being very perceptive, escorted him downstairs. "Attorney Duan, I won't go. I still have some clues to sort out tonight. Besides, I ate quite a lot tonight. When you get back, just bring Xiao Bei here. Xiao Bei knows my door code."

Beckham nodded. Yes, she really knew.
