"What...what could I possibly be hiding from you..."

Qin Xiang'e looked unwell, her eyes darting around, avoiding Qin Zheng's gaze.

Qin Zheng's expression darkened further.

“Yes, I admit my thinking was too cautious,” he said, his voice serious and deep. “But Aunt, you’re not such a forceful person. You’ve always been easygoing. If I wanted my wife to stay in the city for her postpartum confinement, you wouldn’t have stopped me even if you had concerns.”

Qin Xiang'e nervously clutched the hem of her clothes and said, "Zhengzi, don't think such things. I'm just worried about your grandmother..."

"Don't use my milk as an excuse."

Qin Zheng got even angrier and said forcefully, "You handed my grandma over to Aunt Tian. We've been neighbors with Aunt Tian for so many years. We all know what kind of person she is. I don't believe she can't help us take care of the old lady for a month."

"Just tell the truth, has someone been spreading rumors about you?"

During her hospital stay these past few days, Qin Zheng has taken the initiative to handle almost everything for Ye Yun, big and small.

Some trivial matters fell to Qin Xiang'e.

They were hospitalized at the health center. The village had called the health center twice looking for them, and Qin Xiang'e answered both times. He suspected that Qin Xiang'e's unusual behavior today was related to the calls from the village.

Ye Yun looked at Qin Xiang'e with a puzzled expression.

Qin Xiang'e's face was filled with anxiety.

Under the gazes of Qin Zheng and Ye Yun, she gripped the hem of her clothes tightly, so hard that her fingertips turned white.

It's impossible for someone not to be ghosts looking like this.

Ye Yun thought of a possibility, her eyes darkened slightly, and she said softly, "Aunt, you can speak freely about anything. Don't you know what kind of people Zhengzi and I are?"

Her voice was much softer than Qin Zheng's.

Looking at Qin Xiang'e, she also had a faint smile on her face, which made people feel her powerful peace.

Qin Xiang'e looked at Ye Yun, seemingly having made a decision, and then looked up at Qin Zheng and said, "Alright, Zhengzi, come out with me for a moment."

"What are you going out for?"

Before Qin Zheng could speak, Ye Yun said.

Seeing Qin Xiang'e's expression, Qin Zheng realized it wasn't a trivial matter. He turned to her and smiled, "Wife, I'll go out and talk to Auntie. If something really happens, I can handle it all by myself."

"Need not."

Ye Yun resolutely refused.

She was still smiling, her tone calm yet carrying an undeniable force: "Say it right here, there's nothing I can't hear."

"young married woman……"

"explain."

One word was enough to render Qin Zheng speechless.

In fact, he was also afraid that what Qin Xiang'e said would be too absurd, and Ye Yun had just given birth and couldn't withstand the shock.

But with Ye Yun being so assertive, he really didn't dare go out with Qin Xiang'e.

He didn't know if Ye Yun would be angry after hearing Qin Xiang'e's words, but if he went out with Qin Xiang'e now, his wife would definitely be very angry, extremely angry!

"Alright."

Qin Zheng also lowered his hand that was pushing Qin Xiang'e.

He walked to the bedside, took Ye Yun's hand, and said in a deep voice, "Aunt, you speak."

Qin Xiang'e hesitated before speaking, "This..."

"Speak freely."

"Oh dear, it's just those villagers who have nothing better to do than gossip!"

Qin Xiang'e closed her eyes, seemingly resigned to her fate, and gritted her teeth, saying, "They say our child was born at eight months, that the child isn't yours, but belongs to that guy surnamed Zhao, and that your wife slept with that guy surnamed Zhao before we got married, making you a cuckold!"

Ye Yun: "..."

Qin Zheng: "..."

After Qin Xiang'e finished speaking, she was so angry that her body was trembling. She took a deep breath and said, "Don't be angry, you two. I know they're just talking nonsense!"
