Chapter 801: The Newlywed Couple
Mingzhu's vomit caused the entire room to be filled with a sour rotting smell. An You's nose scrunched up. As he looked at Mingzhu who was bent over the side of the bed, vomiting, he felt like something in his heart had been destroyed.
In An You's heart, Mingzhu was gentle like water, a poetic and perfect beauty. It was a bit hard for him to accept this Mingzhu who was currently vomiting in front of him.
However, the moment this thought arose, he became shocked by his own feelings. He loved Mingzhu so much, how could he think something like this?
An You felt that there was a need to sort out his own feelings, so he got off the bed and left Mingzhu's room almost like he was fleeing.
Mingzhu stared blankly in disbelief as tears silently streamed down her cheeks.
An You spent that night in the study. He stood by the window the entire night, looking at the bright moon in the sky like he was a block of wood.
The next day, it was time for the new daughter-in-law to meet her in-laws, so Ning Shu and the old madame waited for An Yu and Li Nianlei in luxurious brocade clothing.
One thing that surprised Ning Shu was that An You came very early today and his facial color didn't look good. He had dark circles underneath his eyes and his face looked wan and yellow.
Why wasn't An You with Mingzhu? Weren't they joined at the hip?
Ning Shu was very curious, but on the surface she maintained her virtuous and dignified manner.
After a while, Mingzhu came as well, supporting her waist. Her face was extremely pale to the point that veins were visible on her forehead.
When the old madame saw how delicate Mingzhu looked, like she was so weak she couldn't even take a gust of wind, she hastily asked, "What happened? Did you not rest well?"
Mingzhu glanced at An You before saying to the old madame, "It's nothing. I just can't eat. I keep feeling nauseous."
"All pregnancies are like this. Everyone goes through it. Even if you feel nauseous, you still have to eat," exhorted the old madame.
Ning Shu saw that the atmosphere between An You and Mingzhu seemed a little strange. They seemed uncomfortable around each other.
The newlywed couple came in. An Yu held Li Nianlei's hand as they walked in together. When Li Nianlei saw that so many people were looking at her, she hastily tried to shake off An Yu's hand, but An Yu just tightened his grip on her hand. Li Nianlei's face flushed bashfully.
Everyone just looked on with gentle smiles.
When Mingzhu saw Li Nianlei like this, she suddenly felt very jealous.
Li Nianlei first knelt in front of the old madame to offer her tea. The old madame laughed merrily as she gave Li Nianlei a pair of flawless white jade bracelets. The old madame said, "This was something your grandfather gave me back then, now it's pa.s.sed onto you."
"Many thanks, Grandmother." Li Nianlei smiled in delight. Following that, it was An You, this father-in-law's turn. An You gave a red packet.
