Marriage First, True Love Later-Chapter 131 - Strong mother-in-law
“If I say that my child is gone because of you, will you still think that I hate you for no reason?” Tong Xiaojie questioned her like this, and her expression became twisted and ferocious.
An ran was a little surprised, and only then did she realize that her sickly face was because of a miscarriage. It was just that she said that the child’s disappearance had something to do with her. Ha, did she look like she was particularly easy to bully, so everyone pushed the responsibility to her?
&Quot; do you know how you feel when your husband is hugging you and calling out another woman’s name? ” Tong Xiaojie looked at her and asked, ” do you know how much you’ve done and how much effort you’ve put in? you’ve spent six years and still can’t get into a man’s heart. Do you know how much despair you’ve felt? Did you know?”
Auntie Zhang, who was standing on the side, looked at the scene in front of her in a daze. She couldn’t react to what was going on.
Anran looked at her indifferently without any expression and said coldly, ” &Quot; I don’t know. I thought that my husband would never hug me and call other people’s names, and he would never reject me out of his heart. &Quot;
Tong Xiaojie looked at him with some resentment and almost gritted her teeth as she said, ” “Are you trying to show off your happiness to me?”
&Quot; I’m not showing off. It’s the truth. Yicheng treats me very well. &Quot; Not all men could do this. Even when he was at his sweetest with mo Fei, mo Fei could not do even one-third of what he could.
Then, she looked at Tong Xiaojie, who was so angry that she could almost eat her up. She said expressionlessly, ” &Quot; since you knew all this, but still chose him, then you should have expected this outcome. You should be responsible for your decision back then and not blame others. &Quot;
Tong Xiaojie sneered, ” yes, you’re right. I deserve this. I asked for it. &Quot;
An ran didn’t say anything and only looked at her. If what she said just now was true, then she did ask for it. She couldn’t blame anyone at all, could she?
“Aren’t you going to ask me how I lost the baby?” Tong Xiaojie looked at her and sneered.
Anran shook her head. &Quot; I don’t want to know. &Quot;
“But I just want to tell you.” Tong Xiaojie looked at her and said,”what did you say to mo Fei?” That’s why he had a big fight with me. If we didn’t fight, I wouldn’t have fallen!”
Anran frowned and tried hard to recall, but she couldn’t remember when she had looked for mo Fei or what she had said. Wait a minute, she seemed to have recalled something. That day at the restaurant, she had indeed met mo Fei and questioned him about the blueprint.
“What, you remember now?” Tong Xiaojie looked at her coldly.
Anran raised her head. She really thought it was ridiculous. Were all the Tong family members so self-righteous? Tong Wenhai had ‘implored’ her not to interfere in his daughter’s marriage without distinguishing right from wrong, and now Tong Xiaojie was even worse. She had directly pushed all her mistakes and carelessness onto her!
Anran took a deep breath, feeling a little angry. She looked at her and was about to speak, but someone beat her to it.
&Quot; what’s wrong with you, woman? you’re the one who’s not careful, yet you’re pushing the blame and faults onto someone else. Are you out of your mind? ”
No one knew when Qin Yun came back, but it was obvious that she had heard their conversation. She came in from the door and looked at Tong Xiaojie with a face full of disdain.
“Mom,” she said. An ran looked at Qin Yun in surprise.
Qin Yun looked at her and smiled, waving her hand.
Tong Xiaojie was a little surprised by Qin Yun’s appearance. She looked at her and asked in a harsh tone, ” “Who are you?”
He turned to Tong Xiaojie and said, ” “How do you know who I am? are you really okay? you came to my house to make a scene. Is my su family’s daughter-in-law someone you can bully as you please?”
“You!” Tong Xiaojie glared at her. Facing Qin Yun, she seemed to be unable to resist.
&Quot; what about me? I’ve never seen such a stupid person like you. You clearly know that you’ve chosen a man you don’t love, but you’re still willing to marry him. Are you a fool or an idiot? happiness is your own. If you don’t know how to cherish it, who would care about you? ” Qin Yun said disdainfully, ” you have a problem with your own marriage, yet you’re trying to find fault with someone else. I don’t think it’s a problem with your stupidity. You don’t have a brain at all, or is it that your brain has been kicked by a donkey? it’s fine if you don’t have a brain, but don’t get water in your brain. If you have the time to throw a tantrum at others, why don’t you divorce that man? ” Using you to get to the top, and then hugging another woman at night, how can you expect a man like this to give you happiness?”
&Quot; I … &Quot; Tong Xiaojie was at a loss for words. She looked at Qin Yun and bit her lip. Her hands were clenched tightly and she glared at Qin Yun with hatred. Even her pale and sickly face had turned red from anger. After waiting for Qin Yun for a long time, he finally squeezed out a sentence, ” you don’t need to care about my business. Who Do You Think You Are? what right do you have to point fingers at me?! &Quot;
“Tsk.” Qin Yun was disdainful. &Quot; I don’t have the time to point fingers at you. Who Do You Think You Are to me? I have a lot of things to do. I have to take good care of my wife and the grandson in her stomach. If it wasn’t for you being so insensible and coming here to cause trouble for no reason, do you think I would have the time to look at you? I can’t be bothered with you. Those words just now were good for you if you could listen to them. If you can’t, I can’t do anything about it. I just want to trouble you not to come looking for trouble in the future. I really don’t like to hear those words of yours. &Quot; I don’t like you even more.” Qin Yun looked at her with a dark expression. She didn’t care if her expression was ugly or interesting. She turned her head and smiled gently at Anran. &Quot; Ranran, let’s go. The procedures are all done. &Quot;
Anran nodded. Thinking about what she had just said, she couldn’t help but laugh.
Qin Yun looked at Auntie Zhang, who was standing at the side, and said, ” “Mrs. Zhang, let’s go after we’ve taken our things. Little Zhang is probably getting anxious from waiting downstairs.”
Auntie Zhang quickly came back to her senses and replied, ” “Oh, Okay, okay.”
Qin Yun took Anran’s hand and walked to the door of the ward. There, they met Mrs. Tong, who had come to look for Tong Xiaojie.
“Xiaoxiao.” When Mrs. Tong saw her daughter standing in the ward, she bit her lip tightly and glared at Anran and Qin Yun with hatred. She didn’t even ask what was going on and directly shouted at Anran and the others, ” stop right there! &Quot; Then, he strode over to an ran and the others and said in a harsh tone, ” &Quot; what did you do to Xiao nuo?! &Quot; He pointed at her, and his action almost hit an ran.
Qin Yun frowned unhappily and pulled Anran to stand behind her, blocking her from the front. She looked at Mrs. Tong with some contempt and said, ” “Do you have any manners? can’t you speak properly? why are you touching me like this? what are you trying to do?”
“What do I want to do? I want to ask you what you did. What did you do to my daughter?” Mrs. Tong pointed at Tong Xiaojie and said fiercely.
Qin Yun turned to look at Tong Xiaojie and pretended to be surprised as she said, ” &Quot; so she’s your daughter. As the old saying goes, a Crooked Stick will have a crooked shadow. Only a mother like you could raise a daughter like that. &Quot;
“You, what do you mean by this!” Mrs. Tong looked at her. Her eyes were so angry that they almost burst into flames.
Qin Yun looked at her with some disdain and said with some sarcasm, ” “What do you mean? you’ll know what I mean when you see your own faces.”
“You!” Mrs. Tong was angry, but she couldn’t argue with her, so she could only stare at her.
“What about me? I don’t have the time to talk nonsense with you. It’s a waste of energy. What kind of family are you?” Without even looking at them, Qin Yun turned her head in disdain and took Anran’s hand again. &Quot; let’s go. &Quot; He walked out of the ward.
&Quot; there are really all kinds of people here. Even a random cat or dog has to come here and cause trouble. Hmph, do you really think there’s no one in our su family? ” Even after they left the hospital, Qin Yun still spoke with a hint of resentment. She had just gone to complete her discharge procedures, but she wasn’t sure if it was because of the time, but there weren’t many people lining up to go through the procedures, so it didn’t take long for her to recover. When she returned to the ward, she didn’t expect there to be someone inside. She thought that it was Anran’s friend. Just as she was about to go in, she heard that woman angrily questioning Anran and saying that she hated Anran. When she heard that, she didn’t rush in. She wanted to hear what they had to say. So, she stood outside for a while. However, he didn’t expect that the more he listened, the more upset he felt. What kind of people were they? they robbed someone and still had the face to question him. Did they still have the face to establish their chastity memorial archway even though they were prostitutes?
Anran had a smile on her face. Her mood didn’t change at all because of Tong Xiaojie’s trouble. On the contrary, she was secretly happy and delighted. He held Qin Yun’s hand tightly and slowly stopped in his tracks.
Seeing that she wasn’t leaving, Qin Yun turned around in confusion and asked, ” “What’s wrong?”
Anran shook her head, looked at her seriously, and said, ” “Mom, thank you!”
Qin Yun was stunned for a moment before she reacted. She looked at her and said in an unpleasant tone, ” “I thought you were going to say something.” He pulled her along and continued to walk forward. &Quot; is our su family’s daughter-in-law someone that outsiders can bully as they please? they’re really tired of living! &Quot;
Anran couldn’t help but laugh at her words, and even Mrs. Zhang, who was sitting beside her, laughed along.
Knowing that su Yicheng would only be back the next day, Qin Yun had wanted Anran to go back to the courtyard with her so that it would be more convenient for her to take care of him. However, Anran rejected her offer. She knew that su Yicheng would come to find him as soon as he returned, and she didn’t want him to work so hard because she wanted to share his burden. Since she couldn’t help him, she didn’t want to cause him any trouble. She wanted to stay at a place where he could easily find her. Once he came back, he would be able to see her. At least, he wouldn’t have to work so hard.
Qin Yun was also an experienced person, so how could she not understand what she was thinking? besides, her son was also hers. As a mother, it was natural for her to be reluctant to part with him. As for Anran, with aunt Zhang around, it wasn’t like she didn’t have someone to take care of her. After a few days of interaction, she could tell that aunt Zhang was a good person. She didn’t feel worried about leaving Anran in her care, so she didn’t insist. He only gave Mrs. Zhang a few instructions and asked her to take good care of Anran. He didn’t stay in the apartment for long before returning to the courtyard.
Unlike other people, Anran was now more than two months pregnant. Ever since she found out about it, her pregnancy reactions hadn’t been serious. She only felt a little nauseous when she brushed her teeth in the morning and in the evening, but everything else was fine. However, recently, she had clearly felt that she was sleepy. She went to bed early at night and woke up late in the morning, but she always slept for two and a half hours a day.
After Qin Yun went back, Anran went back to her room and lay down for a while. She fell asleep in a daze, and when she woke up, it was almost five o ‘clock. She came out of her room in an annoying manner. In order to match her daily routine, Mrs. Zhang was preparing dinner in the kitchen. When she saw Anran come out, she slowly asked, ” Madam, you’re awake. Are you hungry? I have some chicken soup that your mother-in-law brought this morning. Do you want me to heat it up for you? ”
Anran shook her head. If she continued to eat and sleep like this, she would probably become a pig soon! She remembered that the doctor had told her in the morning to take more walks as exercise when she was free, so she wanted to go down for a walk.
He had to do this, so he turned to Mrs. Zhang and said, ” “I’ll go down for a walk.”
“Uh, why don’t I accompany you then?” Qin Yun had told her and su Yicheng had also told her to take good care of Anran. It could be seen that the SU family treasured this daughter-in-law so much, so she didn’t dare to let anything happen to her.
“No need, Mrs. Zhang. I’m just going to walk around the neighborhood. Besides, I’m not in labor yet, so there’s no need to be so nervous.” Su Yicheng was nervous, Lin xiaofen was nervous, and Qin Yun was also nervous. Right now, she was also so nervous that she was almost a little neurotic. It was clearly not a big deal, but they had made it too exaggerated.
Aunt Zhang thought about it and agreed. In the past, the women in the countryside were not so pampered. They still worked in the fields when they were seven or eight months pregnant. The children were born healthy. Now, people were Living a Good Life and were spoiled. As he thought about this, he nodded and said to her, ” &Quot; then you can go down and walk around first. I’ll prepare the meal first. We can start eating when you come back later. &Quot;
Anran nodded, put on her coat, and went downstairs.
The apartment was located in the city, surrounded by commercial office buildings. Although Anran’s apartment was in a good location, in reality, where every inch of land was worth its weight in gold, it didn’t take up much green space. So, an ran walked out of the neighborhood.
Anran had originally just wanted to walk around for about half an hour, which was considered some exercise, before heading home directly. However, she hadn’t expected to run into Xiao Xiao nearby, and in such a situation at that. After running into her, she remembered that, yes, this place was only five minutes away from Jing Cheng. As she walked along the street, she would reach Jing Cheng’s office building at the next corner.
In reality, Anran wasn’t someone who liked to gossip. She saw a group of people gathered in front of her, looking at something. In the midst of the chaos, she also heard a woman’s voice. She was pregnant, and Anran subconsciously knew that she had to avoid the crowd, so she turned around and walked across the street. However, as soon as she walked across the street, she saw a black Audi suddenly turn and stop in front of the crowd. Then, Anran saw Huang Dexing get out of the car with a dark expression on his face. He angrily pushed the crowd aside and was about to enter. When the crowd turned around and saw that he was one of the people involved, they all made way for him. Only then did Anran see the two women fighting in the crowd. One of them was slightly chubby in her forties, while the other had a pretty figure in her twenties. The woman in her twenties was none other than Xiao Xiao! Anran also recognized the slightly chubby woman in her forties. She was Huang Dexing’s wife. Back then, Huang Dexing had brought her to the company’s Annual Meeting, and Anran had even offered her a toast.
However, from Anran’s point of view, no matter how strong Xiao Xiao was, she couldn’t be stronger than Huang Dexing’s real wife in terms of action. Mrs. Huang was scolding Xiao Xiao for being a mistress who stole her husband, but she grabbed Xiao Xiao’s hair with one hand and smashed Xiao Xiao’s head and body with her bag with her other hand. She didn’t vent her anger, and she even kicked Xiao Xiao’s thigh from time to time. Xiao Xiao held her head tightly with her hands, unable to fight back at all. Her clothes were also torn apart, revealing the sexy black underwear inside. She could only scream and call her a crazy woman. The crowd just looked on, but no one came forward to pull the two apart.
Huang Dexing stepped forward with a dark expression and pulled Mrs. Huang toward the car. Mrs. Huang refused. She reached out to shake him off and was about to turn around and beat Xiao Xiao up again. She cursed, ” &Quot; Hmph, I’m going to beat this B * tch to death today. How dare she seduce my husband, Vixen! &Quot;
&Quot; enough, are you done yet? how am I supposed to face others when you’re making such a ruckus in front of my office building?! &Quot; Huang Dexing shouted at her.
&Quot; Hmph, you’re afraid of being embarrassed too. You’re playing with women in your own company! &Quot; Mrs. Huang retorted.
As the two of them argued, Xiao Xiao-who had been beaten up badly-got up from the ground and was about to hit Mrs. Huang back with-vicious look in her eyes. However-Huang Dexing-who was standing to the side-saw it and pulled his wife away. He strode forward angrily and raised his hand-” slap! Bang Bang! &Quot; He slapped Xiao Xiao’s face so hard that Xiao Xiao fell to the ground again. He glared at her and said sternly, ” “Don’t come to work tomorrow!”
Without even looking at Xiao Xiao, he turned around and pulled Mrs. Huang’s hand into the car. This time, Mrs. Huang didn’t resist and let him hold her hand. However, the moment she turned around and was about to leave, she didn’t forget to kick Xiao Xiao on the ground and curse, ” “B * tch, let me see you again next time!”
The onlookers looked as if they were watching a farce. After watching, they sighed a few times and then turned to leave. No one went up to help Xiao Xiao up.
Xiao Xiao was lying on the ground, half of her face red and swollen. Her clothes were torn, and even the sexy black bra strap inside had slipped off. There were still tears on his face as he looked forward in a daze. His eyes were unfocused, and his face was expressionless.
The onlookers gradually dispersed. No one would pity the mistress that everyone was scolding, and no one would help a bad woman who destroyed the happiness of someone else’s family. Even if she looked pitiful now, no one felt that she was worthy of sympathy.
Anran slowly stepped forward. She didn’t know how to describe her feelings when she saw Xiao Xiao like that. She felt that she was a little pitiful. He took off his thin coat and covered her with it, then went forward to help her up.
After Anran helped her up, Xiao Xiao slowly came back to her senses. She looked at Anran, who was next to her, and stared at her in a daze for a long time. Then, she suddenly broke down and burst into tears.
Seeing her like this, an ran sighed and shook her head. She couldn’t go anywhere like this, so Anran couldn’t bear to leave her like this. She wasn’t a Saint, but Anran also hated her for setting her up, especially when the design was torn. She really hated her to death, but seeing her like this now, Anran still had compassion. He helped her back to his apartment.
When Mrs. Zhang saw Anran helping a woman, who was covered in injuries and in a disheveled state, back home, she cried out in surprise, ” Oh my God, what’s going on? ” As he spoke, he quickly stepped forward and helped an ran into the room.
After settling her down on the sofa in the living room, Mrs. Zhang turned around to pour her some tea. Anran went back to her room to get her clothes and was ready to let her change.
When he came out again, Xiao Xiao was still sitting on the sofa in the same position as before, her expression numb and unconscious. He sighed and handed her the clothes in his hands. &Quot; change your clothes first. &Quot; he said softly.
After a long time, Xiao Xiao finally reacted. She raised her head and looked at her, asking, ” “Why … Why did you help me?” She had always thought that she hated her, but she was a little surprised that she was the one who was willing to help her in today’s situation.
Anran handed the clothes directly to her and said, ” “No matter what, we’re still acquaintances.” She couldn’t completely ignore her. Of course, that was all she could do. She helped her up and let her change into a clean set of clothes. At least, she wouldn’t look so disheveled.
Xiao Xiao didn’t say anything else and looked at her with her hands on her clothes.
Anran pointed in a direction and said,”the bathroom is over there.” &Nbsp;
Xiao Xiao got up and went to the bathroom.
When Xiao Xiao went into the bathroom to change her clothes, Mrs. Zhang came out of the kitchen with a cup of freshly brewed ginger tea. She looked at Anran and couldn’t help but ask curiously, ” Madam, what’s going on? why is that child covered in wounds like he’s been beaten up? ”
Anran glanced at her, shook her head, and said, ” “Don’t ask anymore.”
Since she said so, Mrs. Zhang didn’t ask any more questions. She only said that she was still making dinner in the kitchen and then went straight back to the kitchen.
When Xiao Xiao came out of the bathroom, she had already changed her clothes and freshened up a little. The palm print on her face was red and swollen, and the corner of her mouth was bruised. Even her arms were covered in blood. Her leg seemed to have been kicked by Mrs. Huang, and she limped as she walked.
Anran looked at her and asked her to come over. She pointed to the ointment she had just found on the low table in front of the sofa and said, ” “Wipe it.”
Xiao Xiao nodded and sat down on the sofa without saying anything. Then, she took the ointment and applied it on her wound.
Anran didn’t ask or say anything. She just sat on the sofa and looked at her quietly.
After a while, Xiao Xiao applied a layer of ointment on her hand and looked at her with a serious expression. &Quot; “Thank you,” he said.
Anran nodded. Looking at her, she finally asked, ” “Do you want to stay for dinner?”
Xiao Xiao looked at her, her face moved. She bit her lip and asked, ” “Don’t you hate me?”
