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

Chapter 178 Struggling with a Lack of Evidence

Ji Shuyin spoke with absolute certainty, and this time Yang Leyu didn't react much, just staring intently at the two of them.

The old woman was only surprised for a moment, and then she went back to her nonchalant attitude.

"What's the point of telling them? You're the ones who took this person away."

Even if something goes wrong, it will be your responsibility.

Zhang San understood what his mother meant and immediately chimed in, "That's right, you took my wife away, and I haven't even asked you for her back yet."

Those who are still gossiping and making irresponsible remarks, let me tell you, we will not pay a single penny of the hospital fees.

Upon hearing this, the old woman patted him on the shoulder.

"Oh dear, Mother, what are you doing?"

What are you doing?
I told you, you just don't use your brain. They took your wife away and then abducted these two good-for-nothings.

Not only do you need to pay for the hospital expenses, but you also need to compensate our family.

At least two, no, fifty yuan.

"Yes, we'll lose money."

Zhang San thought his mother's mind worked incredibly fast, and he immediately sided with her.

With a wave of her hand, she saw such a big face that Ji Shuyin was so angry she laughed.

"Old woman, have you forgotten how you begged for mercy just now?"

No one noticed how she took out the dagger.

The two people opposite were also a little scared and shrank back.

"What, in broad daylight, you want to use a knife?"

"So what? I can just do whatever I want. Do I have to report to you?"

Without hesitation, she picked up a fire poker next to her, and with one swift stroke, the thick stick, as thick as a child's arm, snapped in two.

This dagger is truly incredibly sharp!

The mother and son opposite them both stood up abruptly, looking somewhat frightened.

“Ji Zhiqing, don’t be impulsive, let’s talk this out.”

Zhang San pointed at her, not knowing what to say. The old woman was quick-witted.

"Well, I came here to take my granddaughter home."

Since you don't want to go back, then don't go back at all. I have something to do, so I'll be leaving now.

After saying that, he quickly went out, staying close to the edge.

Zhang San followed closely behind and ran out as well.

"Shameless! Don't ever come to my house again, ptooey..."

Huang Chunjing stood behind and spat.

Seeing the sunflower seed shells and peanut shells scattered on the ground, Daya quickly grabbed a broom and started sweeping.

"Oh, little girl, you don't need to do these things."

After Yang Leyu finished speaking, she reached for the broom in her hand.

Before we even touched him, the child suddenly knelt down with a "thump".

Er Ya didn't know what was going on, but since her sister knelt down, she knelt down too.

"Hey you two, what are you doing? Get up right now!"

Yang Leyu went to help them up, but the two girls wouldn't get up at all.

"Sister, don't send us back. My grandma said she's going to beat us to death."

My mom's not home, I'm scared..."

Both children had tears in their eyes.

Yang Leyu couldn't bear to watch, and she also shed tears.

"That damned old woman deserves to die."

Huang Chunjing also rushed over and helped pick up the child.

"Don't worry, I won't send you back."

"Wait until your mother comes back before you leave."

"Really?"

Daya was a little incredulous and asked timidly.

"Really, more real than real gold."

Having received this promise, the two children stood up and worked even more diligently. They not only swept the floor but also cleaned the kang table.

It's impossible to stop them from doing it; there's no stopping them.

Ji Shuyin sighed. Growing up in an environment where she had to depend on others for everything, this child was already frighteningly sensible at such a young age.

"How are you? Is Sister Guihua alright?"

Huang Chunjing didn't go with them, so she doesn't know what's going on there.

"It's alright, mother and daughter are safe."

In one sentence, a lot was explained.

"So, what they said is true, and it's another daughter?"

The two nodded, and Da Ya was also listening intently!
Huang Chunjing had them sit on the kang (a heated brick bed) and gave them some biscuits, which the two children nibbled on.

"Yes, judging from their attitude, they probably won't accept it..."

Yang Leyu was still very agitated, mainly because she was angry.

"There's nothing we can do about it. The baby has already been born; we can't just put it back in."

Besides, whether a child is a boy or a girl is not something a woman can decide.

The root of the problem isn't men.

Ji Shuyin understood, but many people couldn't understand or explain it.

They only believe that children come from a woman's belly, so they put all the blame on the woman.

"By the way, Shuyin, it seems you were right."

This old woman Liu is definitely plotting with Zhang San and his mother; she's probably the kind of person who'd just stand by and watch someone die.

"Perhaps, it was just a matter of inaction that happened to coincide with breech presentation."

“This is murder, and they must pay the price.”

"Wait a minute, the more I listen, the more confused I get. What's going on?"

Huang Chunjing interrupted their conversation and raised her own question.

Yang Leyu slapped her forehead, realizing that she had no past, and quickly offered an explanation.

"My God, how could this happen? This is inhuman!"

"We currently have no evidence, and we estimate that it will not have any impact on those three people."

Even if you go and complain, just say they said it themselves, no one will believe you, especially since no one is hurt.

Yang Leyu was still unconvinced, and even a little irritable.

"So we're just going to do nothing? I can't swallow this."

At this point, Ji Shuyin had no other choice.

You went and spoke up, but they didn't admit it, and there was no substantial evidence. What else could you do?
"At present, it's great news that Sister Guihua is alright."

Let's not overthink it, let's just take it one step at a time.

The greatest comfort is that everyone is safe and the child is alive.

Ji Shuyin felt that she had done everything she could and had fully repaid her for the kindness of delivering the message.

After a moment of sighing, the three of them shifted the topic back to the two children.

“I had no choice but to let them leave, and the mother and son just stayed here and wouldn’t leave.”

Unable to be in two places at once, we can only let them be.

It's a pity about those peanuts and melon seeds; they were originally meant for Daya and Erya.

Now, they've ruined everything.

"Oh, right, Shuyin, I'll take those eggs you brought over this morning."

She assumed that Ji Shuyin had bought it herself.

"No need, it's for you, you can keep it."

I buy most of my things in the county town. Now that it's cold, you shouldn't go out too often.

"Okay, then I'll give you the money."

Ji Shuyin pretended to be angry and rolled her eyes at her.

"Why are you being so polite with me? Next time you go out, just buy some for me."

"That's fine, I'll take it. We've been out of food at home for the past couple of days."

By the way, what about these two children?
I didn't mean anything by it. It's fine at my house, I'm just worried those two will come over and cause trouble again!
