Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife novel Chapter 18

Chapter 18: Chapter 18: Biological Mother

The bride and her husband returned to her parental home, and they were accompanied by her brothers and male relatives. The Cheng family had few members; Father Cheng only had one younger brother in his generation. Before him, there was an elder sister who was mentally disabled and had died young after falling into the river as a child.

In Cheng Su’s generation, there was only her and her brother in the family. Her third uncle had a pair of twin brothers, not much younger than Cheng Zhi.

Now, they had all been called to the Cheng family home, and Third Aunt also came over to help make lunch.

The women were busy talking and working in the kitchen, while the men gathered in the main room. Mother Cheng first pulled Cheng Su aside to have a private conversation, even asking about the marital affairs, causing Cheng Su, who lived in an open era herself, to blush with embarrassment.

"Mom, you’re asking too many questions," she said in annoyance.

Seeing her daughter’s red face, Mother Cheng pinched her teasingly and mocked, "Oh, you’re blushing? Weren’t you the one who was so eager to get married? Why are you embarrassed now? What were you doing earlier?"

Uh...

How was Cheng Su supposed to respond to that? Could she say she wasn’t really her daughter? But looking at Mother Cheng’s face, she couldn’t bring herself to say it.

In her previous life, Cheng Su was an orphan and didn’t even know what her biological mother looked like. Now she had Mother Cheng, who wasn’t her real mother, but the body’s mother. Seeing the lady’s teasing smile, she felt an unusual sense of affection.

It was as though her mother was supposed to be just like that.

So now, hearing her mother tease her, she couldn’t bring herself to get angry.

Thankfully, Third Aunt came to her rescue, saying, "Sister-in-law, stop teasing her. A newlywed young lady is still shy!"
