Old Mrs. Song is reborn; get out of here, you scumbag husband and illegitimate child!

She looked at Song Xianglan, "Third Aunt, you never lie to me. You're telling me it was a joke, right?"

The older women sighed as they listened.

Over there, a police officer called Song Xianglan over.

Song Xianglan gently patted Song Yulu's hand and walked over.

A short while later, Song Xianglan got into a heated argument with a young police officer.

"Officer, I heard it with my own ears. That slut admitted to giving her a sterilization drug. Cai Youde was right next to her, and he even chimed in."

Song Xianglan slammed her hand on the table. "This is intentional assault! They conspired to ruin my niece's life. How could you release them?"

The police officer held a pen, looking helpless.

"Comrade, we rely on physical evidence in our investigations. It's been over ten years, where are we going to find the medicine? The person involved is adamant about denying it, and we can't file a case based solely on the few words you overheard outside the door at the time."

"Furthermore, even the doctor's diagnosis cannot prove that your niece was drugged."

"So my Yulu was cheated by these two beasts for nothing?" Song Xianglan's eyes turned red.

Song Yulu walked over and tugged at Song Xianglan's sleeve.

"Third Aunt, don't worry," Song Yulu said softly.

Song Xianglan grabbed her niece's hand with her own.

It was icy cold to the touch, and I was still shivering uncontrollably.

Song Yulu's voice was trembling when she spoke.

Song Xianglan felt a pang of sadness in her heart.

She understood that her niece was trying her best to keep from breaking down.

"Yulu, don't be afraid, I'm here." Song Xianglan softened her voice. "Listen to your aunt, let's divorce this scumbag. Don't get ourselves stuck in this mess any longer, okay?"

Song Yulu smiled.

"it is good."

"I'll listen to my third aunt."

She turned to look at the gray walls of the police station, and a suffocating pain welled up from the bottom of her heart.

In recent years, she has visited numerous traditional Chinese medicine hospitals, both large and small.

The amount of folk remedies and herbs consumed could circle the village several times over.

Each time she held that bowl of dark, strange-smelling herbal medicine, she didn't even flinch, just closed her eyes and swallowed it.

On several occasions, centipedes and scorpions were added to folk remedies.

She vomited after drinking it and couldn't sleep all night.

Every time she went back to the village, the villagers would gossip about her behind her back, saying she was a barren hen and that she was a waste of a woman's body.

During holidays and festivals, my mother-in-law would smash and beat things in front of the whole family.

She got up before dawn to work and went to countless temples and Taoist monasteries to kowtow.

Even her mother, who was from her maternal family, would look at her with a cautious and worried expression whenever she came to visit.

When I was about to give up.

Cai Youde always stood up for her with great consideration.

"Yulu, if you don't have children, you don't have children. I don't care."

"As long as we're happy, that's all that matters. We can always be childless."

All I need is you.

At that time, she was filled with guilt.

She felt she must have committed some terrible sin in her past life to cause such a good man to lose his family line.

She even shed tears in the middle of the night, wanting to file for divorce and give Cai Youde away so that he could have a complete family of his own.

Looking back now.

I feel like a complete joke.

She always felt that she didn't deserve Cai Youde's kindness towards her.

She thought this was fate's compensation; it prevented her from having children, but gave her a shelter from the wind and rain.

After all that trouble...

All the storms in her life were brought to her by this man.

If it weren't for that soup with added ingredients, she would have been a mother long ago.

Even with family planning policies, there should still be a child running and playing in the yard.

Everything seemed so absurd.

Song Yulu reached into her pocket and pinched her thigh hard through the fabric.

Excruciating pain.

She bit her lower lip again, her teeth working hard, and a faint taste of blood rose in her mouth.

It hurts.

It's not a dream.

The sharp, dull pain in her chest, sharper than the pain in her thighs and lips, repeatedly reminded her that this was real.

Song Yulu tilted her head back and quickly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with the back of her hand.

Song Xianglan saw this and felt as if her heart was being torn apart.

Her niece has always been strong-willed and didn't want to show even the slightest bit of her weakness in front of all the outsiders in the room.

"Jade Dew," Song Xianglan called out.

Song Yulu turned her face, smiling calmly, "Third Aunt, why did you suddenly come to Xincheng today?"

Song Xianglan suppressed her anger and avoided mentioning the fact that she had brought her elder brother to see the doctor. "I just happened to be passing by, thinking of looking at a villa. I just happened to run into this disgusting thing."

The iron gate deep in the corridor was pushed open from the inside.

A policewoman was carrying a three- or four-year-old boy as she walked ahead.

The little guy just got a fever-reducing injection at the hospital and is now fast asleep, snoring loudly, nestled on the policewoman's shoulder.

Yang Axiu and Cai Youde followed one after the other.

Yang Axiu's left cheek was swollen, and there were bloodshot eyes. She walked with a limp, looking like a drowned rat just pulled out of a mud pit.

Cai Youde wasn't in much better shape; his nose was bandaged, his clothes were ripped shut, and one of his arms was drooping. He looked dejected.

Song Yulu's gaze passed through the crowd.

It was fixed on the little boy's face.

They really look alike.

Especially his mouth and slightly receding chin, which look exactly like Cai Youde's photos from when he was young.

Cai Youde raised his eyelids and met Song Yulu's gaze.

His blood froze instantly.

He doesn't want a divorce, absolutely not.

In his mind, he was worlds apart from Song Qiang, that beast who divorced his wife for another woman.

He didn't mind that Song Yulu couldn't have children; he believed that a man should be loyal and devoted to his family.

As for Yang Axiu drugging him back then, that was purely an accident.

It was Yang Axiu who, knowing he was marrying Song Yulu, became jealous and made a small mistake in a moment of confusion.

He was also a victim of this accident, so what did he do wrong?

Cai Youde rushed to Song Yulu's side.

"Yu Lu, listen to me." Cai Youde was full of regret, tears welling up in his eyes. "It's not what you think. It's all made up by outsiders."

Song Yulu took half a step back, dodging his outstretched hand.

"Not like that?"

"It was her wishful thinking that led her to cling to me. I wasn't married to you back then, and I was young and naive, so I drank too much and she took advantage of me."

"Her ex-husband's name is Cai Dapao." Song Yulu stared at him, her tone calm.

Cai Youde's throat tightened.

I can't make a sound.

"Yang Axiu's youngest daughter, whom she took with her after the divorce, is your child, isn't she?" Song Yulu said weakly, "Cai Dapao is your cousin, who is within five degrees of kinship."

You slept in the same bed with your own cousin's wife and even made her raise your daughter for several years. You're really something else.

Cai Youde's face turned red.

"Yulu, those were all mistakes I made before we got married. I swear that since I married you, you've been my whole heart and soul. Unlike Song Qiang, who abandoned Yang Liu, I've never had the thought of abandoning you."

The middle-aged woman with the floral print next to her couldn't stand it anymore.

"Pah! You're raising a bastard and still spouting such nonsense, have you no shame?"

Cai Youde completely ignored everyone else.

"Yulu, you really can't blame me for drugging her," Cai Youde argued with red eyes. "I had no idea what she was trying to do at the time."

"That wicked woman, Yang Axiu, was driven mad with jealousy when she saw I was going to marry you, which is why she did such a despicable thing. I was deceived by her too."

"You can't nitpick over one of my trivial mistakes. Think more about how good I've been to you."

"I'd rather get scolded by my mom for you."

Yang Axiu's eyes were filled with resentment and malice.

She was beaten today, and now even men want to trample her to death.

She couldn't stand Song Yulu's pretentious act, yet she hadn't lost her temper by now.

She sarcastically remarked, "Your man said that having the child I bore for him was enough; he married you out of necessity."

He was with me the night before your wedding. And every year since, we've been together several times a year.

"Shut up," Cai Youde told Yang Axiu to stop talking.

Yang Axiu insisted, "Do you know where I live in the new city? You live in building number 5, and I live in building number 9. Your balcony can see right out of my window, and he said he wanted to see me and the children every day."
