She reclaimed her family property and broke off her engagement to go to the countryside.

Chapter 177 Staying at Huang Chunjing's House

"What does that prove?"

She was already quite old, and she didn't have much of a relationship with Sister Guihua.

It's normal not to feel bad.

Moreover, if something goes wrong, they will naturally want to avoid taking responsibility.

Yang Leyu's analysis was very logical, and under normal circumstances, it was indeed the case.

"I just think this person is too calm. Sometimes, the biggest flaw is the absence of any flaws."

This time, Jiang Shi'an did not support her either.

"Shuyin, I also think this person seems to be fine."

Do you feel there's something wrong with her, or do you suspect something?

She couldn't very well say that she had a very strange dream.

Based on this dream, you can infer that she has a problem. Even if you saw it with your own eyes, it was just a dream.

"I can't quite explain it, but something just feels off."

Zhang San and the old woman weren't in a hurry at all, which is wrong.

Although they didn't care whether Sister Guihua lived or died, they still wanted a child.

To be precise, she wants a boy.

At this moment, Jiang Shi'an also realized what was happening.

"So their reaction was so calm and collected, as if they had given up on the child."

There's only one possibility for this to happen.

Yang Leyu probably guessed it too, but she was still not convinced and asked nervously.

"What's possible?"

"She knew the child wasn't a boy. In the whole production team, only Granny Liu was the most experienced in this regard."

My worldview has collapsed. I knew some people favored sons over daughters, but I never imagined it would be this serious.

"So, they conspired to set up this scheme."

"Is it possible to disregard someone else's life just to have a boy?"

I guessed it, but I can't accept it.

Yang Leyu's voice trembled with tears, because she was a girl and couldn't bear to see such things happen.

Because Sister-in-law Guihua was kind to her, the thought of those people's ugly faces made her even angrier.

"This is just my guess. The actual situation may not be like this. Just take it as a guess."

That's right, there's no concrete evidence right now.

Even if they utter some grand pronouncements, it would still be nothing but empty talk.

It's better to give an uncertain answer, so you can extricate yourself from the situation, but others may not see it that way.

Once something becomes deeply ingrained in people's minds, no one cares whether what you're saying is actually true.

"So, if that's the case, then Granny Liu and that mother and son are in cahoots."

She must have taken bribes from those two; she's shameless.

"Le Yu, don't get agitated. We don't have any evidence at the moment."

But one thing is certain: the mother and son must have thought they had given birth to a daughter, and that is indeed the case.

What we should be worried about is Sister Guihua's future livelihood.

The three of them had the same thought: she already had no status in the Zhang family, and now it was even less so.

"The brigade leader said that Sister Guihua's family home isn't far from here. I'll ask around and go there!"

For now, this is the only option.

"Then I'll trouble you, Jiang Shi'an. I thank you on behalf of Sister-in-law Guihua."

Yang Leyu felt that she was closer to Tian Guihua, so she said something more polite.

Ji Shuyin was also worried; she didn't know if her family would take her side.

After all, she's a married daughter, and many things are hard to explain.

It was getting late, so they split up.

Jiang Shi'an needed to find the other team leaders. He didn't know which production team Guihua's family lived in, so he needed someone to go with her. She was also worried about Yang Leyu, and there were also Guihua's two children. The two of them agreed and went to Huang Chunjing's house.

"Chunjing, we're back, you..."

As soon as they entered, a miraculous scene unfolded.

The old woman and Zhang San were sitting on the kang (a heated brick bed) in Huang Chunjing's house, eating melon seeds and roasted peanuts.

Huang Chunjing was standing by the wall opposite them with her two children.

"Oh dear, the person who went to the hospital is back."

"So, has that spendthrift woman given birth yet?"

The old woman spoke first, and Ji Shuyin looked at the sunflower seed shells and peanut shells scattered on the ground, somewhat displeased.

"Whether she's given birth or not, you'll know for yourself if you go and see for yourself. Why are you asking me?"

Zhang San leaned lazily against the kang table.

"Didn't you go?"

"If we don't ask you, who should we ask?"

"Ask whoever you want, I just don't want to talk to you."

Huang Chunjing had already arrived behind her, her eyes filled with anger.

"Shuyin and Leyu, this mother and son are shameless."

Needless to say, it's obvious.

To act so recklessly in someone else's home is truly remarkable.

"Don't talk nonsense. I just came to see my granddaughter. There's still food waiting to be cooked at home!"
"It was you who wouldn't let them go back, so we had no choice but to stay."

"You are utterly shameless..."

Huang Chunjing was furious; the two of them must have been using the child as an excuse to stay here on purpose.

She was worried that her child would suffer if he went back, so she didn't resist.

Or rather, resistance is futile, as the other party is even more shameless than a rogue.

Ji Shuyin took her hand, offering her some comfort, but Yang Leyu refused to accept it.

"You guys are shameless, what kind of people are you?"

"Your own wife is giving birth, and you don't even care about her. You're just hiding at someone else's house, freeloading off them. How can you be so shameless?"

Zhang San was not angry at all when he heard this.

"So what? She's just a little girl. I don't want her."

"That's right, if you can't give birth to a boy, what else do you want from us?"
"In our Zhang family, we don't support idlers."

The mother and son were singing in unison, without the mother even moving her buttocks.

Yang Leyu glanced at Ji Shuyin, and it matched her earlier guess. It seemed that the two of them knew in advance.

"Oh my, does your family have a throne to inherit?"

We're dirt poor, what good is having a son? He'll hate you all anyway.

"Sister-in-law Guihua is truly cursed for eight lifetimes to have run into a family like yours."

"So you all don't care because you're certain she'll have a daughter."

So you deliberately let Granny Liu leave, didn't you?"

Ji Shuyin, with a cold face, chose to question him directly.

The old woman was smug and didn't try to reason with her.

"That's your own idea, it has nothing to do with us."

Everyone says that with her belly, it's a girl, so what's there for me to be embarrassed about?

"She can't carry on the Zhang family line. We should at least hire a midwife for her; sending her to the hospital is just too much. She's so delicate."

At this moment, Huang Chunjing also spoke up.

"Nonsense, Da Ya found the midwife herself, what does it have to do with you? Stop trying to make yourself look good."

Now that you put it that way, everything makes sense, and my guess was correct.

"Old woman, what are you still trying to argue about? You're doing this on purpose."

Granny Liu has told you everything, you just wait and see!
