Chapter 1365: Outsider - 8: Healing, Nightmare_2
Looking at the steaming bath barrel, emanating the scent of medicine, Cui Qingrou finally understood what her daughter had been busy with all morning without her knowledge, and couldn’t help but feel a mix of laughter and tears, "Yanyan, Mother feels very well now and doesn’t need to go through the trouble of a medicinal bath."
Mo Yan tested the water temperature and found it just right. She stepped forward to pull her mother over, "Mother, if you trust your daughter, strip down now and soak in it. I guarantee you won’t regret it."
Worried that this medicinal bath might fail or not achieve the desired outcome, Mo Yan decided not to reveal to Cui Qingrou the true purpose of the bath, to spare her from greater disappointment should their hopes be dashed.
"You child, of course, Mother knows you have my best interests at heart, but ever since I started on the medicinal meals you’ve prepared, my health has improved day by day. I don’t want you to worry about me any longer! With the time you have, you’d be better off giving Mother a grandchild sooner, while I can still move around and take care of you during your confinement. If you don’t want to look after the child, Mother can take care of them too."
Cui Qingrou was touched by her daughter’s care but wished even more for her daughter to have a child soon. She dreamed of holding a soft little baby in her arms!
Mo Yan was caught off guard by her mother bringing up the subject of children again. While helping her undress, she looked for an excuse to change the subject, "Your niece-in-law just gave you a grandnephew; if you like children so much, go see him more often."
Not long ago, Fangcao went into labor and gave birth to a big, chubby boy of over eight pounds, which left Cui Pingan so thrilled he lost his sense of direction, and Cui Qingrou herself had visited several times. If it were not for having remarried and thus unable to return easily, she would have loved to visit and hold the baby every day.
Cui Qingrou was well aware of her daughter’s tricks and shook her head helplessly, not allowing herself to be swayed, "Xiaoqi is Xiaoqi, and you are you. Xiaoqi is already a father and doesn’t need my worry. Mother just wants to see you become a mother soon!"
