My Demon Husband Is a Snake-Chapter 981: Your Turn to Be Slapped in the Face

"Ahhh~" Dumpling babbled in baby talk, gesturing wildly at Qing Li, without anyone knowing what he wanted to say, but it seemed so serious, as if his words had special meaning.

But really, even I, his own mother, don't know what he's trying to express.

Qing Li, however, listened intently, patting Dumpling's little head, "You say your surname is Lin, but you haven't been officially named yet, we can call you Dumpling Lin, right?"

"Ow ow ow~"

Little Dumpling seemed to have met a soulmate, his big eyes glistened with excitement, nodding vigorously.

"Ugh..." An ellipsis crossed above my head.

You have to wonder, how exactly did Qing Li understand him, it feels like...

The accuracy is quite good, right?

"Your father's surname is Yu; your surname should be Yu. Why do you think your surname is Lin? Did your unreliable parents suggest it?" Qing Li started off quite gentle, but then showed a hint of dissatisfaction, though he still spoke to Dumpling in a friendly manner.

Dumpling felt especially safe in Qing Li's arms, gesturing with hands and feet, "Ah ah ah~"

"Mm mm~ mm~" Qing Li seemed to understand, nodding repeatedly.

His expression was serious and thoughtful, as if he was convinced by Dumpling, without a trace of anger.

So, how exactly are they communicating??

Even I, the real mother, have no clue what kind of logic is being used here...

Just then, a little whirlwind blew into the attic.

Yu Rongling burst in excitedly, holding Shenshen's hand, "Mom, I brought my daughter-in-law… wait, you… you..."

"What do you mean what? Tongue tied and can't speak properly?" Qing Li withdrew his tenderness for Dumpling and cast a chilly gaze at Yu Rongling.

Yu Rongling stuck out his tongue, "I'm just surprised; you actually held someone other than me, even if it's my cute little nephew. Mom, am I still your favorite baby?"

"No, you're quite bothersome." Qing Li said coldly, then glanced at Shenshen, "This… your woman?"

"No no no, not at all, I'm not familiar with the second young master."

Little Shenshen forcefully shook off Yu Rongling's hand and hid beside me, "Mistress, don't misunderstand."

"Oh~ Ginseng Spirit, haven't seen you in years, how did you become female?" Qing Li finally recognized Little Shenshen, glancing at Yu Rongling, "If you dare to force her, I'll castrate you, behave yourself."

"Mom… you… you…" Yu Rongling seemed utterly shaken, completely devastated, "You even favor my household spirit over me, am I really not your biological child?? What happened to protecting your child?"

Poor Baby Rongling, how did he end up so pitiful?

How is it even possible to be disliked by your own mother?

"I am protective, the little girl grew up under my watch, no one can bully her." Qing Li curled her lips sardonically, commanding, "I have a task for you, gather all the baby formula on the market within half an hour."

"Half an hour?" Yu Rongling was stunned, seemingly not expecting his mom to assign such a tough task!

Qing Li replied matter-of-factly, "Or what? If Dumpling goes hungry, I'll stew you up for him to eat, and you too, Su Wan."

"Here, Mother-in-law." I instinctively responded on hearing Qing Li's voice, standing up straight.

Oh, the oppressive presence and authority of this terrifying mother-in-law!

Qing Li never objected to my calling her mother-in-law from the start, though hearing those words now, her gaze seemed a bit discontented, but she still didn't correct me, "Take your medicine properly; my grandson needs to start feeding on your milk tomorrow, understand?"
