"Xiao Chu, everyone's here. What's up?"

After Yang Xingyu carried Wang Fengxian out, Grandpa Xia said, "My wife hasn't slept since noon today. I'm worried she'll feel uncomfortable sitting for too long."

"Okay, Grandpa."

Xia Yichu recounted what happened after she took the water inside, omitting the part about her threatening Wang Fengxian and her grandson.

"Wang Fengxian, is this true? You're the one who harmed my son."

Grandma Xia stood up, trembling, and Xia Yichu and Luo Yuechuan immediately got up to help her. Grandpa Xia was also filled with disbelief; he had considered countless possibilities, but he never imagined things would turn out this way.

The two elderly people in the Zhou family were quite calm. They already knew about it; Xia Guohua had told them when Grandpa and Grandma Xia applied to go to the Northwest.

"Mom and Dad, it's all my fault. Mom did it all for my sake."

Yang Yunxia knew this matter was not over, so she immediately knelt on the ground and begged for forgiveness.

"Yes, if it weren't for me, would the Xia family have such an outstanding grandson as Xia Zhiheng? Who knows, maybe another woman could have given birth to two granddaughters for you, causing your Xia family line to end."

Wang Fengxian was unaware of her mistake and even took pride in it, talking to the Xia family about her contributions.

"Mom, stop talking."

"Don't drag me down. I didn't say anything wrong. You're spineless. Why are you kneeling? Get up!"

Grandma Xia was dumbfounded. She hadn't expected things to turn out this way; no wonder her eldest son didn't seem happy at his wedding.

He wrote home saying he would bring a girl back during his vacation and asked his parents to prepare to propose. Grandma Xia and Grandpa Xia were very happy. Although they hadn't officially confirmed their feelings, they knew their eldest son liked the Zhou family girl.

He had said since he was a child that he would marry her when he grew up, and Grandma Xia was overjoyed and prepared things. She had been looking forward to her son's return for a long time, but he didn't get home until it was almost dark that day.

He returned and barely said two words before saying he was tired and needed to go back to his room to rest. The next day, with red eyes, he told them he wanted to marry Yang Yunxia.

No matter how much she pressed him, her son wouldn't say why he wanted to marry Yang Yunxia, ​​even though he clearly liked the girl from the Zhou family. He neither denied liking Zhou Wenhui nor admitted that he wouldn't marry Yang Yunxia.

Two days later, he and Yang Yunxia hurriedly held their wedding. That day, Grandma Xia saw Zhou Wenhui arrive at the wedding with red and swollen eyes.

After the guests left, Zhou Wenhui stopped her son and cried, asking him why he had married Yang Yunxia. What had she done wrong to want to break up with her unilaterally?

His son stared at the Zhou family girl for a long, long time, as if trying to etch her into his very bones. Finally, he left her with only one sentence: forget him and live a good life. She wanted to go to him, but the old man wouldn't let her.

She even slapped her son for this, and for a while she was too ashamed to face the Zhou family. She couldn't understand why her son did that, until one day Wang Fengxian let slip that Guohua had saved her daughter and that the two were destined to be together.

Only then did she realize that her son had his reasons; he must have been framed by the Yang family for saving someone. Looking at Yang Yunxia's five-month pregnant belly, she had no choice but to swallow her anger.

Yang Yunxia is hardworking and ambitious; she even studied while pregnant. She is exceptionally kind to her parents, completely different from the rest of the Yang family.

Gradually, she began to accept her daughter-in-law. There was nothing she could do if she didn't accept her, since they already had a child.

"Am I not telling the truth? Zhiheng became deputy director at such a young age, and the benefits went to your Xia family. Now you're blaming me."

"Wang Fengxian, I don't want these benefits. I just want my son and the people he loves to live happily."

You ruined his life's happiness and killed him. There are so many men in the world, why did you have to target my son? He had a girl he liked, aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning for doing this?"

Her son only came home once every year or two, and she couldn't understand why Wang Fengxian had run into him. Now, Grandma Xia finally understood: Zhou's girl was gone, and her son didn't want to live a life of suffering.

"Who told your son to meddle and save my daughter? And he happens to be a military officer. If I don't take action against him, I'll be letting down the Yang family ancestors who delivered this great opportunity to our doorstep."

"you…"

Grandma Xia clutched her chest, unable to understand how there could be such a cruel person in the world. Xia Yichu helped her sit down.

"Grandma, don't be angry."

"grandmother"

Su Qingyan brought the child over so that Grandma Xia could see her great-grandson.

"Grandma"

"Old woman, how are you?"

Grandpa Xia asked worriedly, explaining that it had taken him a long time to recover and he couldn't accept the situation.

"Suqin, don't be angry, it's not worth it. Guohua was afraid you would worry, that's why he didn't dare to tell you and Lao Xia."

To be honest, Lao Zhou and I knew about this when you went to the Northwest, but we haven't dared to tell you all these years. On one hand, Guohua didn't want you to know, and on the other hand, even if you knew, it wouldn't change anything.

We have to think about your two grandsons and my grandson's future. Think about it! If Zhiheng and Zhiqian find out about this, or if this gets out, how will they ever be able to hold their heads up in the future?

So many years have passed, and both children have passed away so young. It's better this way; at least they have each other company in the afterlife.

Does Wu Jingshu feel any regret? Of course she does. Her daughter has had a smooth life from childhood to adulthood, and her only regret is that she couldn't marry the person she loved.

What's even more regrettable is that, despite their mutual affection, she ended up marrying Pei Feng, that treacherous and ambitious man. Fortunately, they have their grandson, Pei Shizhou.

"Mom, are you alright?" Yang Yunxia squeezed in and asked, holding Grandma Xia's hand.

"Don't touch me! I'm not your mother! Where is your mother? Old man, let's send Wang Fengxian to jail. I'll make her pay!"

"Sure! Do you want the police to arrest me?"

Grandpa Xia shook his head at Grandma Xia. Not only was Wang Fengxian unable to walk due to her leg injury, but at her age, the police couldn't do anything about her. Moreover, more than twenty years had passed, and they had two grandsons to consider; they really couldn't do anything about Wang Fengxian for the time being.

"Grandma, we can't do anything to Wang Fengxian. But we can send her daughter and Yang Xingyu in. Yang Xingyu said that the water in my hand has been poisoned by his aunt, and they're going to give it to me."

"Drug? What kind of drug?"

After Grandma Xia finished speaking, she realized what she meant and said, "Xiao Chu, you mean she gave you that kind of disgusting drug?"

"Yes, Yang Xingyu said it himself, that it was his aunt who gave birth to it."

"I'm innocent! I didn't. That water was for my mom. How could I possibly put that kind of drug in her drink? Mom, please believe me, I really didn't."

"Yes, I didn't say that."

Xia Yichu didn't waste any words with them. She took out a voice recorder from her pocket and turned it on. She kept the glass of water in her hand the whole time she listened; it was crucial evidence.

More than twenty minutes passed, and everyone had finished listening to the recording. Wang Fengxian looked grim, and Yang Xingyu thought to himself, "It's over. I'm definitely going to jail."

The grandfather and grandson looked at Xia Yichu in disbelief. This little bitch had somehow found this thing and managed to record their conversation inside word for word.

Grandpa Xia slammed his fist on the table in anger, saying, "Yang Yunxia, ​​you have disappointed me greatly. I thought you were different from your family, but I never expected you to be so heartless."

Xiao Chu is not even twenty years old yet. You Yang family ruined my son, and now you want to ruin my granddaughter too! This is outrageous! I'm calling the police; this isn't over!

"Dad, I didn't. I promise there was absolutely no drug in the water."

"That's easy. A hospital checkup will tell us whether or not drugs were used," Wu Jingshu said calmly.

Xia Yichu nodded; she thought so too. Seeing Yang Yunxia approach, Xia Yichu shielded the water.

What are you going to do?

"No need for that. Just give me the drink, and I'll prove my innocence."
