Chapter 429
“My child, give it to me. I promise that I won’t take her back without your consent.” Miriam put the notebook back into her bag and stretched out her hand in the direction of the child, with a solemn and serious expression.
Shao Mu’s gaze dropped, avoiding Miriam’s gaze.
The remarks just now, even if they didn’t want to admit it, still struck her heart like a bell in the evening and the morning.
“Mummy…” The child who had been crying all morning finally stopped crying, and at the same time leaned his body towards Miriam, his little hands scratched in the air. Mother Shao pretended to be unaware, and let someone else pick up the small weight.
Miriam held the child in her hand, and the little guy fell on her shoulder and gnawed her fingers. She reached out and probed her forehead and wrinkled her brows.”What did the doctor say?”
Mother Shao took out the list from her bag, frowning her brows tightly: “If you want to make a film, you need… a blood test.”
Miriam opened her lips and teeth, and then she tolerated some words and walked to the elevator door with her baby in her arms. Tao Waner had already pressed the elevator and was waiting. The three of them went upstairs to the laboratory.
In the elevator, Mother Shao stood behind Miriam, saw Anxi lying on her shoulders clearly, and gnawed her fingers neatly. This well-behaved appearance made her dumb and shocked.
When the blood was drawn in the laboratory, the little guy seemed to have a premonition. He shrank his neck and cried again, with a hoarse voice. Mother Shao couldn’t bear it. She was about to step forward several times, but she was caught by Tao Waner next to her.
Miriam helplessly glanced at the little nurse opposite, “Trouble, can you lend me the windbreaker behind you?”
Although the little nurse didn’t quite understand it, after a stalemate for a long time, she didn’t have any idea. She still refused to calm down while watching the child cry. She didn’t dare to get the needle easily, so she handed out the windbreaker jacket.
Miriam put her coat in front of her and looked around. Although it was difficult to let go of her self-esteem, she gritted her teeth and opened the clothes in front of her.
The little guy has the instinct to forage. When he sucks milk, he eats a lot, and he doesn’t care about crying or struggling.
There were people coming and going behind him, and the child was relieved to eat, but Miriam’s face turned red and red.
She is relatively strong and can’t let go of this level. In the past, when taking her children out on weekends, she always squeezed the milk in a feeding bottle, and never easily undressed in public.
Tao Waner stood aside, looked dumbfounded, and noticed that the arm she was holding next to her was also stiff. After a quiet glance, she saw that Shao’s mother’s face was heavy and she could not judge the specific emotions.
After the examination, Anxi also drank milk, and lay down in Miriam’s arms and fell asleep. Maybe it was uncomfortable. The shallow eyebrows were slightly twisted after falling asleep, soaked in anxiety.
Miriam looked down and couldn’t help but curl her lips, she looked like an unsmiling Bryan.
After the examination, Shao Mu and Miriam sat outside the hospital corridor and waited. The old man turned around, his face hesitated: “Where is the smile?”
Miriam was patting the child, and the sleeping song in her mouth suddenly stopped, “I asked her to buy something for me.”
“You will instigate others.” Shao’s mother coldly looked at Tao Wan’er and picked up the injustice.”She will enter our Shao’s house in the future, and it is Mrs. Shao.”
Miriam didn’t care much, she curled her lips and smiled lightly, her face covered with indifference and numbness.
Shao mother looked at her eyes sideways, and she couldn’t help but be speechless.
“I asked her to do it. The communication between the two is based on equality, and there is no so-called instigation.” She paused, because she took care of the child in her arms, and even the indifferent words were light and shallow.”As for Mrs. Shao, you don’t have to use this to test me. I am not interested in the lintel of your Shao family.”
The old man was originally worried that Miriam had other intentions, but after hearing such words, not only did he not feel relieved, but felt humiliated, and raised his tone with anger, “I said Miriam, now I am not satisfied with you…”
Her voice was sharp and harsh, Miriam noticed that the child in her arms moved as soon as she spoke, and then saw her holding her small pink fist, opening her mouth as if to cry.
The old man stopped his mouth for a while and took a careful look at Miriam.
The little guy hasn’t slept so peacefully for a long time. She didn’t tell Miriam, but she knew it very well.
Miriam said in a deep voice, coaxing the child to calm down again, and then said: “This is the best way. We finally reached a consensus on one thing. If you are willing to give up the child, our two families can never talk to each other.”
“You want to be beautiful…” Shao Mu nerdy, poked a finger out, and said something else, when Tao Waner turned the corner and came out with a big bag.
“Sister Miriam, I bought things.” Tao Waner raised the bag in his hand.
Miriam narrowed her eyes and answered, then turned her head and glanced at Mother Shao, “Can you hold the child?”
Mother Shao’s eyes trembled, and she seemed a little unbelievable. She didn’t expect that one day she could still take the child from Miriam calmly.
“Hey…” She murmured and stretched out her hand.
Miriam sent Anxi into Shao’s mother’s arms and looked at it for a while, then got up and lifted her foot out, took the bag from Tao Wan’er, and went straight to the nurse’s station.
Miriam lasted for more than an hour. When she came back, the child was already awake, crying hard in Mother Shao’s arms, crying and blowing her nose while crying, “Mummy”.
The big eyes looked around, but refused to look at Mother Shao.
Shao’s mother followed Miriam’s appearance and hummed the sleeping song, but it didn’t work at all.
When it was about to collapse at this time, it happened to see Miriam returning.
The subconscious reaction was like seeing a savior, opening his mouth, and perceiving something, instantly reducing the emotions on his face, and staring at the woman who was approaching.
“Give it to me.” Miriam put the bag in her hand aside and reached out to Shao Mother.
As soon as the child got into her arms, she stopped crying, chewing on her fingers and staring at Mother Shao, lovely and pitiful. Miriam hugged Anxi and paced back and forth in the corridor, and said as she walked: “Anxi has been born very well since she was a child, so she only let me and my mother hug. She is very vigilant, and was snatched by you from my mother. Will k!ss you.”
She analyzed it lightly, without any emotion.
Hearing this, Mother Shao tugged her clothes silently, her face still calm, but her voice was dull, “Then An Yan, An Yan was very close to me last time…”
Miriam pierced through her mind and gave him a cold look, “An Yan has been born with weak physique and poor gastrointestinal tract, so he has to go to the hospital every once in a while. No matter where I go, the home will provide him with enough breast milk. Fortunately, it was not him that you took away this time. Otherwise, after a few days of tossing, it might not be as simple as a blood test.”
As soon as she finished speaking, before Mother Shao had time to speak up, Tao Waner came out of the doctor’s office with a medicine list in her hand, “The test result came out. The doctor said it was not pneumonia. After taking a few medicines, let’s take two days first and observe the situation.”
Miriam lowered her eyes and answered, her expression faint, but her heart was relieved.
Tao Waner greeted briefly and went downstairs to fetch the medicine. Miriam held the child downstairs. When she turned around, she glanced at the bag in the seat. Mother Shao understood her heart. Although she was not happy, she still followed Behind.
Putting the child in Tao Waner’s car, Miriam thanked her for taking care of her, and told Mother Shao, “The milk I left for Anxi, you feed her with milk powder, enough for her to eat for a week.”
Mother Shao gave a cold “um” and took the child from Miriam. Before getting in the car, the little guy cried again.
Miriam didn’t hesitate. Even though the cry was louder, she walked straight to her car, and as soon as she put on her seat belt after getting in the car, the door next to her was “banged”.
Rolling down the car window, Tao Waner’s frowning eyebrows appeared, “Auntie let go, the aunt at home has already prepared the meal, let’s go after eating.”
Miriam curled her lips slightly, but the emotion in her eyes was very weak.
Chapter 430
When she returned to the Shao’s apartment and opened the door, Shao’s mother’s complexion became stiff, and she stared at Bryan, who was reading the newspaper on the sofa, and couldn’t help but hesitate: “Didn’t you say that the company will open? Why are you back…”
Hearing this, Bryan slowly closed the newspaper, and replied casually: “The meeting is over, come back for dinner.”
After he finished speaking, he got up, and when he headed towards the entrance, his footsteps noticeably stopped. His eyes fell on Miriam, and his voice was cold: “Why are you here?”
Miriam didn’t look at him, and was teasing with Anxi in his arms. When Shao mother saw this, she blocked the conversation and replied first: “I have something to come back, and you don’t need to worry about it.”
When Shao’s mother went to the restaurant with a bag of baby bottles, the two looked at each other quietly, smiled silently, and understood nothing without saying anything.
At this time, Tao Waner, who had just approached, saw everything in his eyes, and couldn’t help but contempt, “Is this enough for you two?”
Bryan raised his eyes and looked at her, pursing a smile on his lips, and did not respond.
Miriam pretended to be stupid and sat down on the sofa with her baby in her arms. At this moment, Mother Shao poked her head out of the dining room and greeted people over: “Come to eat.”
At the dinner table, Shao’s mother deliberately arranged for Bryan and Tao Wan’er to sit together. Miriam held Anxi and occupied one side by herself. Shao mother sat in the main seat, smiled and looked at the two people on the left hand side. In front of Tao Wan’er, “Wow, it’s really hard for you to accompany your aunt for a day.”
The expression on Tao Waner’s face was stiff and stiff, and he glanced at Bryan for a while, and then at Miriam. She couldn’t refuse the hospitality of Shao’s mother. After only two bites of a meal, she felt like sitting on pins and needles.
But the other two expressions are the same indifference and indifferent. Bryan ate slowly and turned a deaf ear to what Shao’s mother said, while Miriam was busy eating while taking care of Anxi, and had no time to take care of other trivial matters.
It’s just that no one noticed that the man’s leg under the dining table stretched out again and again, touching the woman’s calf opposite, trying to get some response from her.
Tao Waner put a chopsticks of white rice into his mouth, and couldn’t help but start to wonder what kind of medicine the two men sold in the gourd.
Miriam ate a small bowl of rice, and Anxi still tossed in her arms. Mother Shao looked at her and screamed at the door, “Is she hungry?”
Miriam pushed aside the chair under him and got up. Mother Shao didn’t lift her head when she saw it. She stretched out her chopsticks and said, “The innermost room is the baby room.”
She didn’t answer, and went straight to the baby’s room. The three people at the rest of the table had their own thoughts. Tao Waner took advantage of Shao’s mother not paying attention, and quietly took out the phone and dialed out.
When the mobile phone in the living room rang, she poked the man next to her with her elbow: “Brother Chen, did your mobile phone ring?”
Bryan twisted his eyebrows, put down his chopsticks and got up to the living room. After seeing the caller ID on the phone, he smiled knowingly, and walked straight to the baby room with the phone.
Shao’s mother drank the soup slightly, she seemed to be worried. She put down the soup bowl and wanted to chase it out, but the arm that was resting on the table was grabbed by Tao Wan’er who had reacted.”Auntie, you last time Didn’t you say that you want the limited edition bag from abroad? I asked a friend to ask. She just posted a few colors and let you pick which one you like.”
After speaking, he took out his phone and flipped through something. The old man’s move to get up stopped there. It seemed hesitant, but in the end he sat down again.
Miriam was sitting on the sofa breastfeeding Anxi. He immediately became alert when he heard the sound of pushing the door. He looked up and saw Bryan’s figure in the crack of the door.
Before she could speak, the man walked over in two steps, pinched her chin with one hand, and the fierce k!ss swept away. The hot lingering continued for a long time, until the child in the woman’s arms groaned in protest, and he reluctantly separated from her lips.
Miriam’s eyes trembled, she couldn’t help but glanced toward the door, breathing in a low voice, “Bryan, are you crazy? Your mother will come here later…”
Bryan didn’t seem to care very much, his eyes fixed on Miriam, and his eyes were full of affection. He stretched out his hand to treat the broken hair on her temple, and his voice was dull: “Miriam, I miss you…”
Miriam’s words stopped suddenly because of the hot “missing you”, her throat became astringent, and she echoed his eyes affectionately, and murmured, “Me too.”
He chuckled swiftly, with a gentle smile that is rare.
Miriam could not hold on to herself, and fell deeply into his gentle eyes. It took him a long time to suppress the beating heart, and drove people away: “You go out quickly. If your mother finds out, she may never Will let me in this door.”
After hearing this, Bryan inevitably felt unbearable and pressed her chin and pressed a light k!ss on her forehead, “I’m wronged you.”
Before leaving the house, he looked back at her again, his eyes firm and persistent: “Miriam, you don’t have to do this. If you change your mind, please tell me at any time.”
“Okay.” Miriam smiled lightly, although her smile was pale, her eyes were full of passion and affection.
As soon as Bryan returned to his room, Mother Shao knocked on the door of the room. He pretended to have just hung up the phone and stood at the door and asked with a faint expression: “What’s wrong?”
Shao mother pursed her lips and smiled, without saying anything, then turned around and folded into the baby’s room.
Anxi was full of milk and was already asleep at this time. Miriam hugged her in her arms and coaxed her. Seeing Shao mother coming in, she just stared at her legs and feet as she stepped in, without raising her head.
“I will leave when she is asleep.” Miriam shook her body lightly, her voice soft.
Mother Shao looked down. Since she took Anxi home, she had never seen her sleep so peacefully. The aunts at home changed a few waves, and none of them could coax her well.
Looking at Miriam at this time, and then at the child, there are various emotions tumbling in his heart.
“Yeah.” After a long while, she responded in a low voice and sat down beside her without saying a word.
Not long after, Miriam put the sleeping Anxi on the bed. The little guy slept very sweetly. After watching quietly for a long time, she turned her head and pulled out the light gray plush doll from the bag beside her, “This is Anxi. My favorite, you can use this to coax her, it will be more useful.”
After speaking, he took out the previous notebook and handed it to Shao’s mother together, “There is also this, you can see if you are interested, it can be of some help.”
After she finished speaking, she raised her foot and walked out without waiting for Shao’s mother to respond.
When she left the apartment and walked downstairs, Miriam let out a sigh of relief. She raised her head unconsciously, and stared at the building behind her for a long time, whispering in her mouth: “Xiaoxi, wait for mom…”
Suddenly, her heart hurt so badly, as if it were struggling, and then she felt her stomach churning again, and she lay down beside the grass for a long time.
When I was about to get up and leave, the phone in my bag suddenly rang, and I clicked on two messages from Liao Qiu.
One is a photo of her from the obstetrics and gynecology department of the hospital, with a question that does not see the specific emotions: “Director, someone posted on the company forum today, are you really pregnant?”
Miriam silently closed the phone heavily.
