Reborn as His Intellectually Disabled Wife-Chapter 38: Must Become Pregnant Within a Year

After closing the door, Shi Lingyan felt a headache coming on.

He couldn’t let Shi Mei continue to stay at home.

It was just too annoying!

Lunchtime.

By the time Shi Lingyan came out, Shi Mei had already obediently taken her seat.

A scarf was tied around her neck, and she sat upright, waiting for Aunt Chen to feed her.

Elder Shi began to speak once he saw Shi Lingyan sit down, "Your grandmother just called."

Shi Lingyan took the bowl of rice passed to him by the servant, his movements pausing slightly.

Shi Lingyan’s parents had died in a plane crash twenty years ago.

That year, Shi Lingyan was only 8 years old.

Since then, Shi Lingyan had been raised under the care of his grandparents.

Elder Shi and Old Mrs. Shi were deeply in love; throughout their decades of marriage, he could be said to have been completely obedient to Old Lady Shi.

However, there was a great disagreement between the old couple regarding Shi Lingyan’s marriage.

Elder Shi believed that one should be grateful and return favors; since Shi Mei had saved Shi Lingyan’s life, he should take responsibility for her until the end.

After all, Shi Mei’s family background was terrible.

But Old Lady Shi thought her grandson deserved the best lady from a prominent family.

How could a woman like Shi Mei, with her family background and history, be worthy of her grandson?

And now, she was even mentally incapacitated.

Shi Lingyan thought that his grandmother’s call must have been triggered by learning from one of the old servants that Shi Mei had stayed the night at their house.

And sure enough, Elder Shi soon added, "She said, you’ve been married for half a year now, it’s time to give some news."

Shi Lingyan, "News?"

Shi Mei, "..."

Did he even need to ask?

It was definitely news about pregnancy or something! freeweɓnovel.cøm

Elder Shi, "Ordinary couples, if not pregnant or with child, at least share a bed."

Shi Lingyan, "..."

"Lingyan, I know you can’t forget Tang Wu, but right now Shi Mei is your wife; you need to be clear about that," Elder Shi continued.

Shi Lingyan looked down, his eyes shaded, "I understand."

Seeing this, Elder Shi sighed lightly, "I don’t want to force you, but you should know that all my arrangements are for your sake."

If it were Old Lady Shi, she definitely wouldn’t want to arrange a marriage in name only for Shi Lingyan.

In her eyes, marriage was marriage, and it was essential to share a bed and have children.

So when she heard that Shi Mei finally came home last night, she didn’t hesitate to make an international call to offer her sympathies.

The old lady had many friends and had already gone overseas a week ago to attend her close friend’s 70th birthday.

Shi Lingyan’s brow twitched, "Wasn’t grandma originally against it?"

"Mm," Elder Shi nodded, "It was after I told her that an idiot would be less trouble and that you liked her too, that she reluctantly stepped back, insisting on pregnancy within a year before finally agreeing to the terms."

Shi Mei, "..." What a harmonious and wonderful family!

But, could they have asked for her consent first?

Shi Lingyan also frowned, "I didn’t agree to that."

"You did agree," Elder Shi said calmly, with an even tone, "When you agreed to marry her, didn’t you agree to have children for the Shi family?"

"I only agreed to the marriage..."

"Marriage and having children are major events in life; I know they can’t be rushed," Elder Shi said magnanimously, spreading his hands, "So starting from today, you two should cultivate your affection. From now on, you must come back home to stay every night."

Shi Lingyan didn’t even need to think, "No way."

Elder Shi, "Why not?"

"Busy."

"How busy can you be," Elder Shi snorted coldly, "No matter how late you come back, you must return home to sleep."

Shi Lingyan furrowed his brows.

Elder Shi added, "This is also your grandmother’s wish."

Shi Mei, "..." Your grandmother this, your grandmother that, why does it feel almost like cursing?
