Chapter 70 -070: Shouldn’t Wade into Muddy Waters
A crowd had gathered outside the Liu Family’s gate in Mountain Village, all coming to watch the spectacle.
At this moment, Wang LaiDi, the wife of the once three young sons of the Liu Family, was crying and wailing, garnering sympathy from some tender-hearted persons.
“The child in my womb is truly of the Liu Family.
Will the Liu Family deny their own flesh and blood and watch the child die?” Wang LaiDi saw the Liu Family’s old lady adamantly refusing her entry and couldn’t help but threatening harsh words.
The Liu Family matriarch was in a very bad mood.
She was too old to put up with these kinds of people.
Her eldest daughter-in-law was unwilling to intervene, arguing it was inconvenient.
But with so many onlookers outside, she had to step up herself.
She gave a cold snort and said disdainfully, “We don’t even know whose seed it is.
What’s more, we don’t need a disgraceful mother like you in the Liu Family!”
At this moment, the child that Wang LaiDi had with Liu San started crying loudly.
He was still young and didn’t understand what was happening.
He had not seen his mother for several days and wanted to find her for a hug, but he was held back by the adults in the yard.
When Wang LaiDi caught sight of her son through a gap in the yard gate, her tears fell more heavily.
The onlookers couldn’t bear to see a mother and child crying so heart-wrenchingly.
A compassionate old woman couldn’t hold back and said, “Maybe the child in her womb is indeed from your Liu Family, can you bear to watch her give birth outside?”
An angry countenance descended upon Madam Liu.
The outsiders didn’t realize the implication.
If the child turns out to be a descendant of the Cao Family and the Liu Family ended up raising it, it would be akin to cuckoldry.
Thinking of this, the Liu matriarch cast a peculiar glance towards the crying child in the yard, wondering if he was part of the problem.
Unfortunately, the child was too young, his features not clearly developed, and one could not discern who he resembled.
Wang LaiDi had suffered considerably and lost her former haughtiness, but what was more significant, was the substantial blow she received today.
She had known all along that her parents had disowned her while she was in jail.
They not only refused to pay her fine but hadn’t even visited her once.
So, as soon as she was released from jail, she went straight to the nearby Cao family to find her cousin Cao LeSheng who once professed to love her to death.
However, she didn’t even make it to the Cao Family’s gate.
Her aunt, who didn’t like her to begin with, was now even more inclined against her after her actions had almost led to the Cao Family’s bankruptcy.
Wang LaiDi could only desperately claim to bear Cao LeSheng’s child and demanded to meet him once.
Cao LeSheng had been having tough days.
His family was relying on monetary aid from his wife’s family, the Yue Family.
His wife was causing a scene, threatening divorce.
He had no choice but to keep a smile on his face to appease her.
Just as things were about to look up, Wang LaiDi came knocking.
Cao LeSheng, of course, did not believe that the child was his.
He leapt to the gate, gave Wang LaiDi two resounding slaps, and roared, “You lowlife, you are here to bring disgrace upon me again.
Get as far away from here as you can!
How could the seed in your belly possibly be mine?
Would I let someone like you birth a child?”
Wang LaiDi was completely stunned by the beatings. freёweɓnovel.com
Her ears were buzzing yet she could still clearly hear what Cao LeSheng said before he turned and went back to the house, not coming out again.
She cried in front of the Cao family’s gate for a long time before finally leaving.
She couldn’t return to her birth family and the Cao Family was even less likely to accept her.
Her only option was to approach the Liu family.
Recalling her simple-hearted husband, Liu San, who always blushed when he saw her, she felt there was still some hope.
Now she began to appreciate Liu San’s kindness.
Unfortunately, despite all the ruckus she made outside the Liu Family’s gate, she never saw Liu San.
Straining her ears, she could hear Liu San trying to rush out from inside the house, but he was held back by his brothers.
She cried and pleaded for longer and even swore on heaven and earth that her unborn child truly belonged to the Liu family.
But old Madam Liu remained impervious to her pleas, speaking only one sentence: “Beat it!
You are not welcome in the Liu Family!”
The more Wang LaiDi thought about it, the more she felt cornered.
In her desperation, she blurted out, “Fine, you all shall regret this!
If you refuse to recognize the child in my womb, then I will die with the child right here at the Liu Family’s gate, and you will have to watch your own flesh and blood, unborn as he may be, die before your eyes!”
Old Madam Liu was a ruthless woman.
She scoffed, “At this early stage of your pregnancy, the child has barely taken form.
Who are you trying to scare?
Our Liu Family isn’t lacking for male heirs and we don’t dare to take in one that a despicable woman like you gives birth to!”
Some of the older onlookers tried to intervene, fearing that someone might get hurt.
As Wang LaiDi pretentiously charged towards the Liu Family’s yard gate, a few older women hurriedly rushed up to hold her back.
“LaiDi, don’t be impulsive.
Think about the child in your womb!” said Old Madam Li, with her white hair.
She was quite soft-hearted and began trying to persuade Wang LaiDi.
Whether Wang LaiDi was genuine or faking it, she acted like she was going to throw herself at the gate, disregarding her own life.
Old Madam Li, who was too old and unsteady on her feet, ended up spraining her ankle while trying to hold Wang LaiDi back.
She cried out in pain and sat down on the ground.
As a result, she accidentally let go of Wang LaiDi, who subsequently collided with another older woman who was rushing over to help Old Madam Li, and inadvertently let go of Wang LaiDi…
Just when everyone thought that nothing would happen, Wang LaiDi’s body uncontrollably crashed into the gate of the Liu Family’s yard.
Wang LaiDi’s head started bleeding from the impact and she got knocked back onto Old Madam Li.
She let out a horrifying scream and couldn’t get up thereafter.
It was Fang Guizhi who ran to deliver the news that Bai Ruozhu’s family came to know about all this, and they couldn’t help but sigh despairingly.
“Ruozhu, it’s lucky you didn’t go.
I was scared to death.
Wang LaiDi miscarried.
People have gone to fetch the doctor, but I’ve heard some old Sayings say that the child is probably…” Guizhi couldn’t bear to say it might not be saved.
Upon hearing this, Bai Ruozhu was somewhat restless, she stood up and said, “I’ll go take a look.”
Her mother quickly grabbed her, anxiously saying, “What are you going to see?
You’re still with child, don’t scare away the child in your belly.”
“Mother, the baby is innocent; perhaps I can find a way to save the child in her womb.
If I don’t go and see, I won’t be able to get past this,” Bai Ruozhu replied, giving her mother’s arm a little shake, her tone slightly spoiled.
“You’re not a doctor.
What could you know?” Her mother Lin PingEr had a look of exasperation as she glared at her daughter, suddenly recalling that time when her daughter had saved Celebration Eggs from drowning by the riverside, and began to second-guess her stance.
Everyone in the room turned towards Bai Ruozhu.
Bai Ruozhu felt she shouldn’t get dragged into this murky situation, but as she herself stated, she couldn’t pass her own guilt.
Perhaps due to her impending motherhood, she couldn’t bear the idea of an innocent life being lost.
Bai Ruozhu thought for a moment and said, “I don’t know how I knew about these life-saving measures.
It all came to me after a dream where an old fairy with white hair and beard patted my head, and then gradually, methods of saving people and curing diseases began to appear in my mind.”
