Shocking! My Rugged Husband is the Hidden Tycoon in the 70s Novel-Chapter 259: The Child Is Mine, Isn’t It?
Jiang Chengxu and Xu Manman went to the production team to get a marriage certificate and then went to the commune to get it stamped.
When she got it in her hands, Xu Manman felt ironic.
She had always wanted to marry Jiang Chengxu, but didn’t expect it to be under such circumstances.
"Give me the marriage certificate!" Jiang Chengxu reached out his hand.
Xu Manman was quicker and put it away with a smile, "Chengxu, I’ll keep it. Although it’s not a marriage license, the village and commune have records of it. Even if you get it and tear it up, it won’t be of any use."
Jiang Chengxu’s intentions were exposed by her, and in anger and embarrassment he said, "Who said I want to tear it up? Aren’t you going to use it to get an abortion? Go ahead!"
At the county hospital, Song Yanqing examined Xu Manman, "The child is so healthy, why do you want to abort? Where’s your husband?"
Xu Manman came alone. She asked Jiang Chengxu to accompany her, but when he saw her, it was as if she had told him a joke of enormous proportions.
"The production team is busy with harvesting, there’s no time to come. I want a son, this is a daughter, so I want to abort," Xu Manman said.
As Song Yanqing was writing the medical records, he said, "You can’t just abort as you wish; in your condition, it’s not possible anymore. The embryo has implanted, forcing an abortion could cause severe bleeding, who will take responsibility?"
The fetus implanted pretty early, which is quite baffling.
"Isn’t this a formal hospital where abortions aren’t allowed? Then how can I get one?" Xu Manman was anxious.
"Even formal hospitals don’t perform abortions on every fetus, and moreover, you can’t even tell if it’s not a daughter yet. This preference for boys over girls isn’t acceptable!" 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢
Perhaps it’s because recently, Song Yanqing has convinced three patients with incurable illnesses to be discharged; his medical skills may not be improving, but his ability to persuade people surely is.
When Xu Manman walked out of the county hospital, she turned back blankly and glanced at the sheet in her hand, feeling lost, when suddenly someone rushed over and grabbed her.
"Xu Manman, did you abort? Did you?"
Zhou Chang’an yelled, looking like he had gone mad.
He was drenched in sweat, with dried corn leaves sticking to him, bloodstains from moving through the blue gauze fields marked his face, his eyes were a mixture of intense emotion and anger.
Xu Manman was so scared that she shivered all over and struggled, "Zhou Chang’an, let go of me!"
Zhou Chang’an said, "You’re pregnant, it’s mine, right? The child is mine."
Xu Manman looked at him in shock, as if this person forgot the public scene with Jiang Chengxu or was it that she remembered incorrectly and Zhou Chang’an was inside then?
"What nonsense are you talking, what’s yours?" Xu Manman retreated in terror, "Don’t talk nonsense, I’ve already married Chengxu."
It was because Xu Manman married Jiang Chengxu and came to abort that Zhou Chang’an was certain the child was his.
He didn’t care when there was no child, but upon hearing there was, Zhou Chang’an became restless, and the feeling of becoming a father arose spontaneously.
"You are carrying my child, and you dare to abort it to marry someone else? Xu Manman, how cheap are you?" Zhou Chang’an was furious.
Once there is that kind of thing between man and woman, the atmosphere changes significantly.
There were people watching on the road, but Zhou Chang’an wasn’t afraid and dragged her into an alley, pinning her on the wall, holding her wrist, "Xu Manman, that day, you all knew I heard, I also know why you let me come in.
If I go to the police station and say that you also participated in plotting against Xu Qinghuan and Jiang Xingye, will they also make you sit in a cage?"
Xu Manman was so scared she was trembling, shaking her head desperately, "I didn’t, you’re lying, you can’t falsely accuse me."
"I heard it all!" Zhou Chang’an said, "I heard everything, I can be a witness, what do you say?"
In fact, he had already been a witness once, but Jiang Chengxu was so well-connected that he made Xu Hongtu take all the blame.
Of course, Xu Hongtu wasn’t a completely innocent person either.
Xu Manman didn’t know that, she felt weak in her knees and almost collapsed, "What do you want? Please, I didn’t do anything, I really didn’t."
Zhou Chang’an filled with malice, his gaze like knives cutting across Xu Manman’s belly, "What do you say, you actually aborted my child, what do you think I want?"
Xu Manman felt a rush of relief, "No, no, it didn’t happen yet, it’s still there, I haven’t done it."
Zhou Chang’an obviously didn’t believe her, Xu Manman hurriedly pulled his hand to touch her belly, "Really, I really didn’t abort, originally, I couldn’t bear to."
It was really unlucky, the child had actually rooted itself in her belly, making it impossible to abort.
Now, she was stuck with this situation, wondering how she could become Chengxu’s wife!
Zhou Chang’an finally believed, although he temporarily felt nothing, he saw the sheet in Xu Manman’s hand that hadn’t yet been torn, which stated the diagnosis very clearly.
"Six weeks? Xu Manman, you cheap woman, it’s been six weeks and you still say it’s my child? Are you freaking lying to me?" Zhou Chang’an exploded upon seeing a six-week pregnancy.
He and Xu Manman did the deed, not even half a month passed.
He also didn’t have the experience, not really understanding the ten-month pregnancy process.
Xu Manman quickly explained, "No, it’s based on my menstruation cycle, not the timing of that deed."
Once she explained, Zhou Chang’an was somewhat convinced due to the fact that Xu Manman was already married to Jiang Chengxu, if the child was Chengxu’s, why would they abort it?
"Chang’an, I’m hungry!" Xu Manman said pitifully.
Now she had no money, nothing at hand, the pregnancy symptoms were getting stronger, and hunger was extremely uncomfortable.
Zhou Chang’an glanced at her belly and took her to a state-run restaurant.
Zhou Chang’an didn’t have much money either, he had been here for almost seven years, and his family no longer cared for him. He earned work points in the Shangjiang Team, how much could he get?
But he extravagantly ordered Xu Manman a bowl of plain noodles while getting nothing for himself.
Without even meat buns, Xu Manman found it extremely undesirable. Marrying a pauper like Zhou Chang’an wasn’t going to happen. After a few bites of noodles, she couldn’t eat anymore and rushed outside, vomiting dramatically at the entrance.
Zhou Chang’an hurriedly followed her out.
After vomiting, Xu Manman felt better, her face pale as she leaned on Zhou Chang’an, "Chang’an, do you think it’s quite a torment?"
Zhou Chang’an’s expression softened slightly, and when his gaze swept past Xu Manman’s belly, there was even a hint of tenderness.
Xu Manman couldn’t eat anymore, and the remaining half bowl of noodles went into Zhou Chang’an’s stomach. On the way back, Xu Manman was carsick and fell asleep on Zhou Chang’an’s shoulder, waking up to familiar scenery outside, realizing it was the most restful sleep she had had since going to the countryside.
Even if it was just over an hour.
In the evening, Xu Qinghuan prepared dinner early, mixed flour buns, mostly white flour, soft and fluffy, chicken stewed with mushrooms, old cucumbers stewed with preserved meat, and half a pot of rice.
She had quite a few people eating at her place, Chen Dewen’s three often came over to share meals, adding Qiao Xinyu and Yu Xiaomin, now Jiang Xingye and Qin Baifan too, making eight people altogether.
After filling their stomachs, people began to talk.
"Today Zhou Chang’an and Jiang Chengxu had a huge fight, man, Zhou Chang’an looked like he wanted to kill Jiang Chengxu," Chen Dewen was full of doubt.
Qiao Xinyu was also curious, "What’s the grudge between them?"
