When Shen Ning came out, she could only smell the strong scent of perfume in the living room.
"Aunt Chen, are you feeling unwell? Your face doesn't look good."
Chen Mingli hummed feebly.
She was so angry that she couldn't get angry at Shen Ning. After all, the person who caused her diarrhea for a long time was her own daughter. She couldn't blame Shen Ning.
But when it comes to the source, it's her fault!
Shen Ning immediately said: "Since Aunt Chen is not feeling well, please go back to your room and rest. I will prepare dinner."
Her well-behaved and docile appearance made Chen Mingli give up his doubts about her.
She was a little suspicious at first, whether she had changed the porridge bowl on purpose, but it didn't look like it.
This girl didn't have roundworms in her daughter's belly, so how could she know there were laxatives in the porridge.
It seems that I am overthinking it.
"Well, I'll leave dinner to you."
She was very satisfied with Shen Ning's sensibleness.
It’s not a bad idea to let her stay at home for a few days and help her with housework.
she thought.
Although she hated Shen Ning, she liked the feeling of being bossed around her.
She knew that Shen Ning's grandfather was a high-ranking official in the capital, because Shen Qingshan would occasionally mention that if his father-in-law hadn't died early, he would have risen to prominence long ago.
Chen Mingli was born in the countryside and felt that her status was much lower than that of Shen Ning's biological mother. This was a thorn in her heart.
Although she used various ways to cover it up, every time she heard Shen Qingshan mention Shen Ning's biological mother, she couldn't help but be jealous, jealous and hateful.
Although that woman has died long ago, in Shen Qingshan's heart, that woman will always be noble, much nobler than her.
Now, seeing the woman giving birth to a daughter lying low in front of her made her feel very happy, as if she had let out a breath of bad breath that had been in her chest for many years.
She went upstairs to rest in a complacent mood.
Shen Ning smiled slightly, entered the kitchen, and began to prepare dinner seriously.

Shen Qingshan came back from get off work and frowned as soon as he walked into the living room.
"What does it smell like?" He sniffed and couldn't help but look in the direction of the kitchen.
There was no one in the living room.
Chen Mingli did not greet him from the kitchen with a smile on her face as usual, helped him take the briefcase, hung up his coat and changed his slippers.
This made him feel a little uncomfortable for a while.
He changed into his slippers, hung up his coat, put down his briefcase, and walked towards the kitchen.
"Mingli!"
He called out, and then heard the sound of the door opening upstairs.
Chen Mingli seemed to have just woken up. She was wearing pajamas, her face was pale, her eyes were green, and her hair was uncombed, like a poodle, as she poked her head out of the room.
Shen Qingshan was startled, and he didn't recognize it at first sight.
"Ah, Lao Shen, you're back? When did you come back? Oh, it's already six o'clock, I, I..." Chen Mingli fell asleep in a daze, and when she heard someone calling her, she walked out.
When she looked up, she realized that Shen Qingshan had come back from get off work. She was even more shocked than Shen Qingshan.
"I, I..." She stammered, closed the door in a panic, then hurried to the dressing table and tidied herself up in a hurry.
When she came downstairs again, she had already taken care of herself.
Her black and soft curly hair was spread out, and her face was beautifully painted, and she didn't look pale or haggard at all.
"Old Shen."
Even the smile is as sweet and touching as usual.
