Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife

Chapter 1481: Chapter 1482: Bringing the Child Home When the Time Comes

Facing Qi Taiguo’s vulnerability, Cheng Su turned around and hugged him, gently patting his back, offering silent comfort.

”Both the baby and I are here, you’re not alone.” Cheng Su said softly.

No matter how strong and tough a person is, everyone has a fragile side, and the man in front of her was no different.

After a while, Qi Taiguo calmed down and recalled what Cheng Su had said earlier, he lifted his head to look at her and asked, ”Who were you talking to just now? Your mom?”

Her mom, according to his understanding, should be the mother-in-law, right? She wouldn’t refer to Mother Qi as her mom, at most she would call her mother-in-law.

What’s going on, did the mother-in-law come, what about his mom?

Cheng Su’s expression turned serious, she said, ”The day you went on a mission, wasn’t mother-in-law supposed to come over? The weather was bad that day, the road wasn’t easy to navigate, and the vehicle she was in overturned...”

”What?” Qi Taiguo’s expression changed drastically, he stood up suddenly, his eyes wide open: ”The vehicle overturned? What about the people, the people...”

”Don’t worry, don’t worry, they’re okay!” Cheng Su quickly said.

Hearing that the people were okay, Qi Taiguo let out a sigh of relief, sat down again, and urgently asked, ”What exactly happened, how did it overturn? Are the people really okay? Was the accident not severe?”

”It was quite serious, I heard that two people died. Although mother-in-law was okay, one of her legs was crushed and the bones were shattered...” Cheng Su saw his face turn pale again, and without keeping it from him, she detailed the whole incident, and in the end said, ”Now mom has gone back to her hometown to recuperate, the compensation matters are still not settled, probably it will take some time to reach a conclusion.”

”I’ll go call back home!” Qi Taiguo couldn’t sit still anymore, and he walked out of the hall with big strides.

Cheng Su also understood his urgency and said nothing, got up from the bed, supported her waist and followed him out.

Qi Taiguo was already on the phone, from his words, it seemed like it was Mother Qi on the other end.

”Mom, I just got back from a mission, not sure if I’ll have time off, if I can get leave, I’ll come back to see you, for now, you should rest well...” Qi Taiguo said.

On the other end of the line, it was unclear what was said, Qi Taiguo glanced at Cheng Su and said, ”Okay, okay, if by then you still can’t move around, we’ll bring the child back to see you!”

Cheng Su raised an eyebrow.

After talking for a while, Mother Cheng had returned from shopping, Qi Taiguo, upon seeing her, quickly said a few words and hung up the phone, greeted Mother Cheng.

”Mother-in-law, my mom got into an accident, and her legs are not convenient, this time I’ll have to trouble you to take care of Susu!” Qi Taiguo said gratefully.

”Oh my, we’re family, why say such things? Look at you, was this mission tough? You’ve lost weight. Don’t worry, I’ve bought pig knuckles, I’ll stew them for you to have a good meal!” Mother Cheng raised her grocery basket and cheerfully walked out of the room.

Qi Taiguo’s heart warmed, he looked at Cheng Su and helped her sit down, saying, ”Luckily mother-in-law is here, otherwise I wouldn’t know what to do!”

Cheng Su recounted the personnel arrangements she had discussed with Father Qi and the others, saying, ”Now Liu Wenjing and her family have also moved over, if my mom can’t handle it at that time, we’ll ask her to help as well, and we’ll pay her a wage, what do you think?”

”That’s good, it not only gets her help but also lets her earn some money for the household, and it won’t overburden mother-in-law!” Qi Taiguo nodded.

Cheng Su smiled slightly and eyed him, ”What did mother-in-law say?”

Qi Taiguo felt a bit awkward, and said, ”Just complained a bit, thinking that if her legs are still not flexible by then, she’d have us bring the child back.”

Cheng Su let out an oh and didn’t say anything further.
