Chapter 370: Chapter 370: Debts Always Come Due

Compared to getting an unsuitable live-in son-in-law to come in and ruin their daughter, Dong Gensheng and his wife naturally wanted their daughter to have a good marriage.

However, Dong Sufen was worried that after she got married, the elderly couple would have no one to rely on, so she insisted on having the husband move into their home.

The old couple exchanged a glance, both feeling a joy in their hearts.

"This matter, Xingye, wait a moment, let me ask your sister Sufen’s opinion."

Li Fengying got up and went inside, and Jiang Xingye, with his good hearing, heard the mother and daughter discussing in low voices, with Dong Sufen saying quietly, "You and Dad make the decision."

It looked like things were settled.

Li Fengying’s eyes immediately filled with tears, and when she wiped them away, they wouldn’t dry up.

Her well-behaved daughter had stayed at home unmarried for so long, suffering countless rumors. A girl, taking on a man’s role to support the family, enduring hardships over the years, made her restless day and night.

Now, she finally had a good destination.

Jiang Xingyong’s character was unquestionable, and the family already had two sons. Although Sufen would be marrying for the second time, the daughter was not young, and when she had children, at least one would carry the Dong family name.

They lived in the same village, so even if she lived with the Jiang family, it didn’t matter. She could come over at any time and provide support morning and evening.

It couldn’t be more perfect.

Xu Qinghuan heard that the Dong family immediately agreed without hesitation, and she laughed, tapping Jiang Xingye on the nose, "Amazing, succeeding the first time matchmaking, I’ll help you get a pair of matchmaker’s shoes from sister Sufen next time."

"I don’t want them, let her make them for you."

Dong Sufen spent three nights making a pair of thousand-layer cloth shoes for Xu Qinghuan, with butterflies embroidered on them, showing the effort put into it.

"I won’t make any for Xingye, his feet are too big, it’s not worth it, so I took a shortcut and made you a pair of shoes instead." Dong Sufen handed the shoes to her.

Xu Qinghuan tried them on and was unwilling to take them off, "Comfortable, and good for the feet."

Dong Sufen felt as if a thousand-pound shackle was broken from her body, exuding a sense of ease from inside out, but her body had been overworked over the years, leaving the foundation injured.

Xu Qinghuan gave her three Qi Blood Pills, "Take one every three days, get your health better, and be a beautiful bride."

Dong Sufen knew Xu Qinghuan’s generosity was extraordinary; if it weren’t for her, the two elders of the Jiang family might not have survived last winter, and now they could go back to farming.

Her nose tingled, and her eyes moistened, "Too precious!"

"Take it, we’re all family now. Your health has deteriorated badly, even without my pills you could eventually heal, but it would take a long time."

Understanding the implication of Xu Qinghuan’s words, Dong Sufen recognized that she was not young anymore and wanted to have children sooner, "Then I won’t be polite."

The news that Dong Sufen was marrying Jiang Xingyong shocked the members of the Shangjiang Team, their eyes almost falling out.

Hu Hai heard and ran to find Jiang Xingye, "Brother Ye, you’re not being nice. You know I’m without a wife, now even the old sow looks attractive to me. Why didn’t you match me with Sufen?"

Jiang Xingye gave him a sidelong glance, "Does she fancy you? Even if you’re willing to live in, they may not want you. You’re just hoping to let someone raise you for free, and they’re not fools."

Hu Hai ran his fingers through his hair, "Even Dong Youfu has a wife! Did you hear that Lu Nianying’s belly is big? Do you think she’s carrying Dong Youfu’s kid or someone else’s?"

"How should I know!" Jiang Xingye was indifferent.

When Lu Mingqiu and Liu Qidong came to the Shangjiang Team, Lu Nianying came out with a basket to pick vegetables. She wanted to lie down at home, but Qian Datao kept saying if she always lay down, she wouldn’t be able to give birth in the future, it would cost her life.

Seeing Lu Mingqiu just as glamorous as before while looking at her own waist like that of a barrel, not even knowing whose child she was carrying, she thought her downfall was all because of Lu Mingqiu.

Lu Nianying picked up the basket and hurled it at Lu Mingqiu, "Lu Mingqiu, why don’t you just die?"

Lu Mingqiu’s face was scratched painfully by the basket’s bamboo strips, and she yelped loudly. Liu Qidong, in a reflex, slapped Lu Nianying, causing her to be knocked a good distance away, landing on the ground.

The two of them hadn’t recognized who Lu Nianying was at all.

She wailed, and only then did Lu Mingqiu see clearly that the one who attacked her was Lu Nianying. Witnessing her belly and the blood flowing, Lu Mingqiu was terrified, "Lu Nianying, it’s you, how could it be you? What happened to you?"

"Oh no, my golden grandson, what have they done to my golden grandson?" As soon as Qian Datao stepped out, she dashed over like the wind.

Seeing the blood under Lu Nianying, she held her belly and cried in pain. Qian Datao hurriedly shouted, "Someone, quick, call Xu the educated youth, my golden grandson has been harmed!"

The members who heard the commotion quickly gathered, some calling out, others demanding accountability.

Even Liu Qidong hadn’t expected this, and he protested, "She hit first, Comrade Lu’s face has been ruined by her."

Despite the blood on Lu Mingqiu’s face and her hair being matted, she didn’t dare to be vocal; after all, the life of the child in Lu Nianying’s belly was at stake.

"Lu Mingqiu, you made me go to the countryside, and now you’re ruining my child, I won’t let you off!" Lu Nianying gritted her teeth.

Her life was over. If not for Lu Mingqiu sending her to the countryside, she would have had a good job in the city, eventually marrying into a high family, living a glamorous life. Now, she lived like a rat in a ditch, unseen by the light, and even despised her own filthiness.

She didn’t care about the child in her belly, but she wanted Lu Mingqiu to pay an equivalent price.

Qian Datao said, "Report to the police, we must report to the police. You’re in for it, harming people even in the Shangjiang Team, are city people bullying us country folk?"

Liu Qidong chose not to speak, they weren’t afraid of involving the police.

The reason he was standing here was to wait for Xu Qinghuan.

When Xu Qinghuan arrived and saw Lu Mingqiu, she understood everything. She hadn’t expected the Lu family to come so quickly.

Lu Nianying hadn’t stepped out of the house in almost half a year, and just one outing with her sister caused such a commotion, it was indeed destiny.

After taking Lu Nianying’s pulse, she took out a Fetal Protection Pill and handed it to her, "Ten yuan, who will pay?"

Lu Nianying threw the pill on the ground, "Ten yuan, are you robbing me?"

Xu Qinghuan laughed, "You don’t want it, you can give it back, throwing it on the ground means I won’t take it, but I still want the money."

Qian Datao hastily picked up the pill and wiped it clean, "My golden grandson was harmed by you, shouldn’t you be the one to pay?"

Without a word, Liu Qidong handed a large note to Xu Qinghuan.

Qian Datao shoved the pill into Lu Nianying’s mouth, she resisted strongly, but the pill was strangely quick to dissolve. As Qian Datao pushed it into her mouth, she couldn’t spit it out before it flowed down her throat.

The child in her belly grew stronger.

She could feel the spasms stop, her belly quiet down, the bleeding cease, and strength returning to her body.

Lu Nianying got up from the ground and charged at Lu Mingqiu, who couldn’t resist and fell backward, hitting her head hard against the tractor’s hood behind her, making a loud crash.

Her movements were too quick and unexpected, Liu Qidong didn’t have time to react.
