Rebirth or let the ungrateful wolf be born

Chapter 20: Even if you are unfamiliar with me, I will still protect my shortcomings

Lin Musen couldn't understand why there were still people who didn't eat dinner when there was no shortage of food and clothing in this day and age.

"You already live in a villa, why are you still so frugal! What ingredients are there at home? I'll cook for you!" Lin Musen had never seen Jiang Jie cook before, so he thought that she wouldn't cook if she didn't want to eat.

"It's not to save money, it's to keep in good shape. I gained weight during the confinement period after giving birth. After you brought the baby home, I started fasting after noon, and I've been sticking to it. I don't think it's bad for my body, on the contrary, I feel more comfortable. So this method is still very suitable for me."

Lin Musen no longer worried about whether Jiang Jie would have dinner or not.

"Then I'll go cook some noodles for myself." Lin Musen said and went to the kitchen.

Jiang Jie is still following her favorite TV series.

After Lin Musen finished eating and cleaned up, he sat next to Jiang Jie and wanted to hold his wife's hand to cultivate their relationship.

Lin Musen and Jiang Jie are husband and wife, but their relationship is not close. Lin Musen longs to be close to Jiang Jie, but Jiang Jie always avoids contact with him intentionally or unintentionally, which makes Lin Musen very frustrated and angry.

Lin Musen tried to reach out and pull Jiang Jie's hand, but Jiang Jie would always find something to do with her hand when he reached out, seemingly unintentional but so coincidental. This made Lin Musen very annoyed, but he couldn't find a reason to be angry.

"Musen, are you going to sleep here today?" Jiang Jie took a sip of tea and asked the awkward man beside her casually while watching TV. Her tone was calm, but Lin Musen could feel her inner alienation.

"What else?" Lin Musen got a little angry when he heard this question. He was not a bachelor, but a legal couple with this woman. But now the woman was like a stranger to him, and it was difficult for him to even touch her hand. Now it was even a problem for them to be in the same room.

"I don't mean anything else. I just want to tell you that you know where the tumor is in my body, so we definitely can't have sex. And my mother's room doesn't even allow me to live in it, let alone a man like you. If you insist on living here, you can only sleep on the sofa. I'll get you a thicker quilt, which will definitely be very comfortable." Jiang Jie coaxed her nominal husband in a soft voice. Her voice was very gentle, but Lin Musen could feel her determination.

Lin Musen felt very lost, and he didn't know how to face this problem. He knew that Jiang Jie was in poor health, but he also longed for close contact with her. He felt that he was caught in a dilemma.

"I understand." Lin Musen finally accepted the fact reluctantly. He knew that he couldn't force Jiang Jie to do anything she didn't want to do. He could only silently hope that as time went by, Jiang Jie's physical condition would improve and their relationship would become closer.

"I'm not a person who doesn't know how to take things seriously. Is it necessary for you to be on guard against me to this extent?" Lin Musen thought about the embarrassing location of the thing inside his wife's body.

"It's not that I don't trust you, it's that I don't trust myself. We are both young, and we're afraid of an accidental conflict when we're together." Jiang Jie said it very directly, leaving Lin Musen speechless.

"Then I'd better stay at the hotel! I've already paid, but I didn't stay because I was in a hurry to come to see you." Lin Musen heard his wife's words and found that his self-control was not strong. Whenever he thought of Jiang Jie's figure, his body would feel a little hot. It's better to stay away from her to avoid unnecessary harm.

Since he had decided this, Lin Musen walked out with his bag, thinking as he walked, as long as Jiang Jie asked him to stay, he would sleep on the sofa reluctantly. But he didn't see Jiang Jie until he walked out of the yard, and he felt a little depressed. He secretly decided to give this woman the cold shoulder, and he didn't say hello to her when he returned home the next day.

Lin Musen had been waiting for Jiang Jie to come to the hotel, but after nine o'clock, when breakfast was over, his wife still hadn't shown up. He checked out angrily and took a bus directly from the hotel entrance to the train station in M ​​City.

He was depressed and silent all the way. He didn't know why he was angry. Just like when they were in love, Jiang Jie often made him jump up and down in anger, and she didn't even know she was angry. After marriage, he didn't have such emotions. After marriage, Jiang Jie was considerate of him in everything. She would think of things he didn't think of. Now after giving birth to a child, Jiang Jie has returned to the way she was when they were in love. Not only is her personality similar, but her appearance is also similar.

Jiang Jie like this made Lin Musen feel itchy. He thought that after getting married, he would no longer have such romantic feelings. However, he did not expect that after his wife gave birth to a child, such feelings came back again. He did not know whether he should be happy or sad.

Lin Musen staggered on his way home, his heart full of contradictions and anxiety. His thoughts kept drifting, sometimes thinking about the troubles at work, sometimes thinking about the trivial matters at home, and sometimes thinking about his future. He didn't know how to face these problems, nor did he know how to find the answers.

This conflicting feeling continued until I got home and saw my baby.

"Dad!" The babyish call brought a big smile to Lin Musen's face.

"My baby, you still recognize your daddy!" Lin Musen grabbed his son from Lin's mother's arms and lifted him up high.

As soon as Lin's mother saw her son coming back from afar, she taught her grandson to call her dad. As expected, this name made her son so happy, and she felt a little proud. The thing she was most proud of was giving birth to this handsome son. Time passed too quickly, and she couldn't understand her son's mind. When she saw her son and daughter-in-law being affectionate together, she felt very uncomfortable and always wanted to interfere. When she heard her son yelling at his daughter-in-law, she felt very happy.

Lin Musen hugged his son, kissed his cheek, and felt his warmth. His heart was filled with love and tenderness, as if all his troubles disappeared at this moment. He looked into his son's eyes, those bright and clear eyes, and he felt endless strength and courage.

"Dad?" Zizi called Lin Musen curiously.

Lin Musen smiled, touched his head, and responded to his son, saying that he hoped his son could grow up happily.

Mother Lin came over, looked at Lin Musen and said, "Look at you, you just hugged your son as soon as you came back, and didn't even talk to me."

Lin Musen smiled awkwardly and said, "Mom, I just miss my baby."

Mother Lin snorted and said, "You only know how to love your son, but you don't know how to love your mother."

Lin Musen sighed helplessly and said, "Mom, how could I not love you? You are my mom, and the people I love most are my parents and my kids."

After hearing this, Lin's mother felt a little better.

Lin Musen held his son and walked into the living room. He sat on the sofa and watched his son playing on the floor. His heart was filled with happiness and satisfaction, as if everything was no longer important. He only hoped that he could always accompany his son like this and watch him grow up happily.

Mother Lin didn't want to let Lin Musen relax, and kept saying bad things about Jiang Jie in his ear. Now she complained that she wasn't affectionate enough to her son last time. This made Father Lin very unhappy. He warned her more than once, and she promised not to complain again, but when she saw her son being nice to that woman, she couldn't help it.

Jiang Jie was a good person to talk to. She seemed to understand her feelings and rarely argued with her. But after giving birth to her son, when Lin's mother saw her daughter-in-law again, she found that she had changed. She was no longer close to her and was indifferent to her provocations. She was also distant from her own son, Zizi.

Mother Lin looked around the room and saw that they were all her favorite relatives. She felt very satisfied and wished it would be like this forever. She was the only woman in this family and it would be best if Jiang Jie never came back.

Thinking of this, a satisfied smile appeared on her lips.

"Mom, Mom." The little guy suddenly pointed at the woman singing on TV and called out "Mom."

This title made Lin's mother's smile disappear without a trace, and she walked to the kitchen angrily to start making noodles. The idea of ​​being the hostess of this family seemed to be something that could only be imagined, not realized.

Lin Musen was saddened by the constant shouting of "Mom". Since his wife gave birth to the baby, she has obviously become a different person. He can't feel the love of his wife at all. It was not like this before. His wife used to look at him with eyes full of love. Although she always quarreled with him, she always gave in to him. Now his wife doesn't quarrel anymore, but she doesn't love him anymore.

Lin Musen finally figured out why he was depressed. It turned out that he could not feel his wife's love. Although she always spoke softly to him, he missed the scene when she quarreled with him when they just got together. He only realized now that quarrels occur because of care. If you don't care anymore and don't love anymore, you will be calm.

Mother Lin invited the family to come to the table to eat, while she herself fed her grandson, who was sitting in the stroller, a small bowl of noodles.

"Did you go to Jiang Jie's house during this holiday? Why didn't she drive back with you?" Mother Lin asked her son while feeding him.

Lin Musen only had his job in mind, so he answered mechanically, "I'm going."

He felt a little uncomfortable. He didn't like his mother asking him this, as if it was something inappropriate for him to go to his wife's parents' home.

"Then why didn't she come back? They probably don't allow married daughters to go back to their parents' home for the New Year." Lin's mother asked again.

Lin Musen doesn't like others saying bad things about his wife, even if that person is his own mother.

"She's not at her mother's house." Lin Musen's voice rose a little, and his face became a little ugly. He didn't understand why his mother always had so much dissatisfaction and prejudice against Jiang Jie.

Mother Lin didn't seem to notice her son's change of mood. She continued, "Hey, this Jiang Jie is really unfilial. She didn't even come back to see us during the Chinese New Year. Does she think our family is not good?"

Lin Musen became more and more angry as he listened to his mother's words. He didn't know how to answer his mother's questions, and he didn't want to hear his mother's complaints and accusations against Jiang Jie anymore.

"Mom, don't talk about Jiang Jie like that. She is my wife and your daughter-in-law. You should respect her." Lin Musen finally couldn't help it. He stood up and said to Lin's mother.

Lin's mother was shocked by her son's behavior. She didn't expect her son to contradict her for Jiang Jie.

"What's wrong with you? I just said a few words to her, why are you reacting so strongly?" Lin's mother was a little dissatisfied.

"Mom, I know you have a problem with Jiang Jie, but you can't always say that about her. She is my wife, I love her and respect her. I hope you can respect her too and stop saying that about her."

Lin Musen said it seriously, his eyes were full of determination and unquestionable. Lin's mother looked at her son's eyes and understood his intentions.

She sighed and said, "Okay, I get it. I won't say that again."

Lin Musen felt relieved after listening to his mother's words. He knew that this was not easy, but he believed that as long as he and Jiang Jie worked hard together, he would be able to make his mother truly accept Jiang Jie and make the family more harmonious and happy.

Father Lin was not angry when he saw his son finally confront his wife for Jiang Jie. Instead, he felt relieved. He had always felt that Jiang Jie was too frustrated in this family. One was his biological son, and the other was his wife. No matter how unfair he felt for his daughter-in-law, he could not openly stand by her side and support her in fighting with her family.

The son used to be like a mama's boy, always standing on Lin's mother's side to deal with his wife. And because Jiang Jie was pregnant, she also endured and did not argue with them. At that time, Lin's father felt that this daughter-in-law would leave as soon as the child was born. However, Jiang Jie did not insist on giving birth to the child as Lin's father thought, but took Lin Musen away and returned to her parents' home in the late pregnancy. Even if Lin Musen did not follow her, she was determined to leave.

At that time, Jiang Jie said to Lin's father: "Dad, the bigger my belly gets, the more scared I am. I still want to go back to my mother to wait for the birth of the baby. I will bring the baby back to see you when it is born healthy."

At that time, in order for Jiang Jie to give birth to the child smoothly, he had to spend a lot of effort to convince Lin's mother to let her son and daughter-in-law return to City M.

Lin Musen was still unwilling to go, and it was Lin's father who persuaded his son earnestly: "Giving birth to a child is like walking through the gates of hell. You still have to think about her. Without her closest relatives here, she will feel insecure, and this is not good for the baby in her belly. It's better for her to go with her mother, so you don't have to worry about it. Let her mother take care of her, and you will be much more relaxed!"

Lin Musen was finally convinced by Lin's father's words, and he took his luggage and his pregnant wife to his mother-in-law's house.

But they were not welcomed when they showed up at the Jiang family.

"She's about to give birth, why are you still taking her around? It's so dangerous!" Jiang's sister-in-law happened to be home for something, and when she saw her sister-in-law coming back to her parents' home with a big belly, she felt a little dissatisfied. It was not easy to lose her temper with her sister-in-law who was pregnant, so she directly opened fire on Lin Musen.

"Jiang Jie was scared and insisted on returning to her mother to give birth. Our family had no choice but to give in to her."

Lin Musen also seemed innocent and explained the reason for his return. This answer made Jiang Jie's sister-in-law even more furious.

"How can a married daughter return to her parents' home to give birth to a child? Mom, don't you say anything about her."

When Jiang's mother saw that her daughter had not gained weight during pregnancy and her face was as thin as a palm, she felt so distressed that she would never blame her daughter.

When Jiang's sister-in-law saw her mother-in-law's attitude, she was so angry that she took her daughter back to her parents' home that day.
