Chapter 209 - Jiang Ruolan Was His Wife, So It Was Only Right For Her To Take Care Of The Guest (2/2)
After three rounds of drinking, Old Man Xian looked very happy. Jiang Bingqing and Cui Liuxian were like two children that were snuggling around him.
Xian Guiying only ate a few mouthfuls of food before suddenly returning to her room. Jiang Ruolan knew that Xian Guiying was pregnant and had a terrible nausea, and as she watched her leave, she was sighing in her heart. The symptoms of her vomiting were really severe.
But all of a sudden, she just happened to take a bite of the fish and somehow felt her stomach churning as well.
Jiang Ruolan's stomach churned uncomfortably. She quietly put down her chopsticks, not allowing anyone to notice her discomfort. She just stared at the fish in the bowl, feeling waves of nausea assaulting her.
However, this feeling of nausea wasn't very clear. If it weren't for the fishy smell, she probably wouldn't have noticed the strange state of her body until now.
Judging from her recent drowsiness, and the fact that her period times have been irregular, Jiang Ruolan unconsciously placed her hand on her stomach, looking a little surprised.
”What happened to you, Ruolan? Could it be that you are also uncomfortable?” Zhan An also put some food into her bowl. Seeing that her expression didn't look good, she smiled amiably and asked her if she was unwell.
At the same time, Xian Zihao also noticed the change in Jiang Ruolan's expression. ”Ruolan? Are you feeling unwell?”
”I'm fine.” Jiang Ruolan looked up and smiled sweetly at Zhan An. Moments later, she turned around and smiled back at Xian Zihao as well, then said, ”I was thinking about Guiying and was wondering if I could send her some food later. Even if she doesn't have any appetite now, she'll still be hungry at night.”
”That's right, Guiying likes to be pampered at times like this.”
Zhan An smiled happily. ”How about this, I'll go get some food for her. She stayed in America for too long and probably still has jet lag. When she came back last time, I noticed that she looked bad. I need to check on her.”
After saying that, Zhan An immediately got up and planned to go to the kitchen with Nanny Cheng to find some leftovers that had not been served on the table.
Zhou Shufen suddenly stood up. ”Auntie, let me accompany you.”
Jiang Ruolan didn't expect Zhan An to be so polite to Zhou Shufen.
Zhan An glanced at Zhou Shufen and smiled amiably, ”No need. You're a guest here. I can't let you come with me.”
”It's alright, auntie. I saw that Nanny Cheng is very busy all day, why don't we let her rest? I will accompany you.” Zhou Shufen was very cordial as she turned around to say goodbye to everyone, and was about to get up.
”Don't, don't! Miss Zhou, just stay sitting there.” Zhan An quickly pushed Zhou Shufen to her seat, then turned around, and said to Nanny Cheng, ”You should go rest as well. Ruolan and I will bring Guiying some food. We will be fine.”
These words caused Jiang Ruolan to turn her gaze towards Zhan An who was smiling merrily. At the same time, Zhou Shufen's expression froze for a moment, but she continued to smile.
She was rendered speechless by Zhan An's words, which were filled with smiles and politeness.
”Ruolan, come and help mom get some food for Guiying. Don't let the guests do it, come quickly.” Zhan An turned and gave Jiang Ruolan a wink.
One was her daughter-in-law, the other was her guest. Her words were so ingenious that no one could detect the flaw in it.
Jiang Ruolan stood up and walked towards her. Zhan An then pulled her into the kitchen.
