The wicked mother-in-law doesn't try to whitewash herself; she only abuses her awful children.

Chapter 321 Good news

Man'er clung to Chen Sufen's clothes, sobbing.

This made everyone feel even more sorry for him.

Tong Huaqiong stood under the eaves and said, "Sufeng, the child is already home, so there's no use making a fuss anymore. Think carefully about whether you want to stay at the Gu family or go back to your parents' home. If you go back to your parents' home, I will arrange for you and Dahan to divorce."

Chen Su-fen looked pale and seemed at a loss for what to do when she heard about the divorce.

Taking the opportunity, the others advised, "What divorce? How will you live alone after the divorce?"

Some young wives even whispered to her, "Su Fen, you see your mother-in-law doesn't want you to leave. Take this opportunity to make demands of her and grab whatever you can. You have to think about Man'er."

Chen Sufeng cried, holding Aunt Qin's hand, and said, "Who can I trust now? Even Da Han, who's so honest,..."

She was crying so hard that her eyes rolled back and she fainted.

Gu Taohua stood on tiptoe next to Tong Huaqiong and looked at her. She whispered to Tong Huaqiong, "Mother, does my sister-in-law have to put on such a show? She just fell straight down. If Aunt Qin hadn't caught her, she would have hit her head."

Tong Huaqiong sensed something was wrong.

Chen Su-fen wouldn't be foolish enough to risk her life.

"Su-Fen, Su-Fen, what's wrong?"

"Aunt Tong, Su Fen has fainted from anger."

Exclamations arose from the crowd.

Chen Su-fen really fainted.

Gu Dahan rushed over first, picked up Chen Sufeng around the waist, and carried her back into the room.

"Quickly, go and fetch a doctor!" Tong Huaqiong said urgently.

Gu Jingzhe quickly ran to fetch the village doctor.

Chen Sufen was laid down on the bed, her eyes closed and her face pale.

It doesn't seem like an act at all.

Tong Huaqiong suddenly remembered that on the way back from the prefectural city, she encountered Su Chengmin, who was covered in blood. Normally, Chen Sufen would have rushed to wipe the blood off him.

But this time, Chen Su-fen couldn't suppress her nausea when she saw blood.

Tong Huaqiong had a bold idea in her mind: was Chen Sufen pregnant?

Gu Dahan was so frightened that he held Chen Sufeng's hand tightly. This action made Qin Da Niang and the others think that Gu Dahan had a conscience and was a good person. They believed that he had a child with someone else for the sake of having offspring.

Originally, Aunt Qin wanted to complain a bit about how Gu Dahan had angered Chen Sufen, but seeing the genuine worry on Gu Dahan's face, she held back.

Chen Su-fen should forgive him; it's more important for the couple to make their lives better from now on.

Man'er's big eyes were filled with tears; she was truly scared this time.

I was just acting alongside my mother when she suddenly fainted.

Man'er held Tong Huaqiong's hand tightly and said, "I'm scared."

Tong Huaqiong gently patted Man'er's head and said softly, "Don't be afraid."

Xiao Long stood at the doorway, peering inside, immediately drawing everyone's attention.

Who would believe this child is a son? She looks exactly like a beautiful little girl.

"The doctor has arrived."

The village doctor, carrying his medicine box, came to Chen Sufeng's side, took her pulse, and congratulated Tong Huaqiong with a smile.

"Congratulations, Aunt Tong! Your wife is pregnant during the Great Heat season."

Tong Huaqiong's guess was correct; Chen Sufeng was indeed pregnant.

"Su-Fen is pregnant?" Gu Da-Han was overjoyed.

Tong Huaqiong asked the doctor, "How is my daughter-in-law's health?"

The doctor said, "Aside from being a little weak, she's fine. However, pregnant women tend to overthink, so it's best not to let her have any worries."

On his way here, the doctor had already heard the gossip about the Gu family, and he made a pointed remark.

Tong Huaqiong nodded. In order to clear the Gu family of suspicion of harboring remnants of rebellion, Chen Sufeng and Xiaolong staged a grand drama.

She really didn't expect her usually honest daughter-in-law to be so helpful in this incident; the director didn't even need to start filming.

There was crying, shouting, and violent tearing, as if Gu Dahan was filming a martial arts drama. When Tong Huaqiong suddenly heard that she was pregnant, she was worried that the morning's acting would cause Chen Sufeng to miscarry.

In this day and age, pregnancy is like walking through the gates of hell for a woman, and she didn't want anything to happen to Chen Sufen.

"Su-Fen is pregnant!"

"Be nicer to Su Fen during the coldest period of winter. Childbirth is not easy for women."

"You know what, Su Fen hasn't had any luck since giving birth to Man'er all these years, but now there are rumors that she's pregnant. I think it's all thanks to the baby outside during the Great Cold. So, it's definitely a happy occasion."

A group of older women and wives surrounded Chen Sufeng and kept talking.

Village Chief Liu Tielian stood at the door, coughed twice, and shouted, "Don't crowd in the house. Dashu's wife needs to rest now. Go back to your own homes quickly."

At this moment, Tong Huaqiong also stepped forward and said, "Everyone, please disperse. My daughter-in-law needs to rest."

Some people muttered, "Knowing that his daughter-in-law is pregnant, he still brought a child from outside to annoy her."

Tong Huaqiong remained unmoved by the sarcastic remark and calmly invited everyone out.

Xiao Long was still standing at the door, peeking into the house, his face showing concern for Chen Su Fen.

Xiaolong is so beautiful and eye-catching. Everyone was focused on looking at Chen Sufeng in the room just now, but now that Chen Sufeng is resting, everyone's attention has naturally turned to the beautiful and eye-catching Xiaolong.

Some people thought to themselves, "This child doesn't look like Da Han at all."

Aunt Qin couldn't help but pat Xiaolong's head, but Xiaolong quickly dodged away.

Aunt Qin said, "He's a pitiful child too."

Her hands were delicate and smooth, and she didn't look like she had suffered.

How could this child be a child born during the Great Cold?

At the same time, the village chief was also carefully observing Xiaolong.

The village chief never believed that this was Gu Dahan's illegitimate son.

But now the Gu family says he is Gu Dahan's illegitimate son, and that is him.

Not only did the Gu family say it, but Magistrate Liu also said it before he left.

The crowd gathered around Xiaolong, scrutinizing him.

"This child is so beautiful."

“Anyway, this child has no mother. In my opinion, Su-Fen should just acknowledge him. After all, he was born outside the family, and he can't be compared to the one in Su-Fen’s womb.”

"That's what we say, but it also depends on whether Su-fen can get over that mental hurdle. If Da-han had treated Su-fen a little worse than usual, Su-fen would have accepted it. But Da-han has always been so good to Su-fen. Now this child is telling Su-fen that Da-han's kindness to her was all fake. Who could bear that?"

“You have to endure it even if you can’t stand it. What else can you do? Get a divorce? Don’t be ridiculous. Su-Fen’s family doesn’t care whether she lives or dies. If she gets a divorce, the first people to kick her out will be her family.”

The crowd started a new round of discussion about Xiaolong.

Chen Su-fen suddenly became the most pitiful woman in Qinghe Bay, firmly standing on the moral high ground and becoming the object of everyone's sympathy.

Tong Huaqiong looked at Xiaolong with mixed feelings.

Now Xiaolong is not Gu Dahan's illegitimate son, but he is.

The key issue is that this matter cannot be denied.

Gu Dahan sat in the room with an expressionless face. From then on, Gu Dahan's image would change from honest and steady to heartless and hypocritical.

Gu Dahan's sacrifice was undeniably significant.

Xiaolong walked into the house under the curious and scrutinizing gazes of the villagers and sat down next to Chen Sufeng with Man'er.

Tong Huaqiong thought to herself that this Xiaolong was indeed a man who had experienced many big events; he was able to come up with a countermeasure the moment the soldiers entered.

He's only a little bit older than Yaozu, who still only sucks his fingers.

He's already orchestrated a whole drama about an illegitimate child.
