Chapter 230 Bloodlust
Zhang Lao Er, "..."
"I wasn't kicked out, I'm getting a divorce!"
The woman said, "I don't want to become the next Su Hongying. To outsiders, your mother is gentle and virtuous, always smiling at everyone, a kind old woman. In reality, she's dark-hearted and only does things for personal gain. Right now, I still have my dowry in my hands, so she doesn't dare to do anything to me. But what if she tricks me out of all the money I have? Wouldn't that make me the next Su Hongying? I'm not stupid. Why would I keep you in your family to be a slave?!"
Zhang Lao Er was dumbfounded. He opened his mouth, but couldn't find any words to refute it.
The woman rolled her eyes, looked at Li Banxia, and continued, "...Their family keeps a stick at the door as a way to ward off misfortune. Su Hongying was heavily pregnant and used to carrying vegetables, so she didn't notice the stick at her feet. She protected her belly, smashed the plate, and steadied herself by holding onto the wall. As a result, she..."
The woman gestured for Li Banxia to look at Zheng Xiulan.
She said, "She scolded Su Hongying for wasting food and made her squat on the ground and eat the spilled food. Su Hongying naturally refused and argued with her with red eyes..."
At this point, the woman sighed, closed her eyes, and felt particularly disgusted with the Zhang family when she thought of the bloody scene at the time.
At that moment, Su Hongying was holding her stomach, her eyes filled with disbelief. "Mom, the food is all dirty from falling on the floor. How can I eat it? Can't I just cook two more dishes?"
"no!"
Zheng Xiulan gave her a cold glance, "Are you going to eat or not?"
"I won't eat," Su Hongying shook her head, her eyes red as she called to Zhang Haijun.
Zhang Haijun remained silent.
Zheng Xiulan slammed her hand on the table. "Boss, hold her down and stuff the food into her mouth. It's the New Year, and she smashed the plate and spilled the food. This is meat and vegetables. She feels wronged even though she's eating it. Eat it. If she doesn't finish it, she can forget about eating New Year's Eve dinner today."
Zhang Haijun sighed.
"Alright, it's the New Year, why are you making such a fuss with my mom? It was your own mistake, and besides, it's all meat and vegetables, you can get some nutrition from eating it..."
"Zhang Haijun, what are you saying?"
Su Hongying looked at her husband in disbelief, "This vegetable fell on the ground. No matter how much meat it is, there's no reason for a pregnant woman like me to eat it while lying on the ground!"
"If you can't lie down, can't you just put it in a bowl?"
Zhang Haijun frowned. "Is this even a big deal? Su Hongying, why have you become so delicate?"
"I think she doesn't know her own worth anymore, and still thinks she has her family backing her up," Zhang Lao Er added with a chuckle.
Zhang Lao Er's wife felt physically uncomfortable watching this and glared at Zhang Lao Er.
Zhang Lao Er curled his lip indifferently.
Su Hongying's eyes filled with tears, but she gritted her teeth and refused to give in, "I won't eat it, I can cook two more plates..."
She was heavily pregnant and her name was Zhang Haijun.
"Even if you don't want to look, you should look at your son. I'm carrying your child, and you just stand by and watch your mother bully me. Zhang Haijun, all those times you said you were good to me were lies, complete liars..."
Zhang Haijun looked impatient. "How did I lie to you? I didn't hit you or yell at you. I didn't use money to support a mistress outside, and I didn't divorce you over some trivial matter. What more do you want from me?"
"Zhang Haijun!"
Su Hongying was furious. Who was keeping a mistress outside with money? It was her father, Su Youfu.
Who got divorced over a trivial matter? Her mother, Li Banxia.
His words reopened two wounds in her heart.
Su Hongying's eyes reddened with anger, and she slapped Zhang Haijun's arm.
The young couple were just bickering. Su Hongying was pregnant, so she didn't have much strength to hit anyone. Zhang Haijun could easily push her aside.
However, just as he pushed the people aside, Zheng Xiulan shoved Su Hongying hard from behind.
"You vile slut, you hit my son in front of me, do you think I'm dead?"
Su Hongying never imagined that her mother-in-law would disregard even the baby in her womb and push her so hard.
Caught off guard, she fell headfirst onto a coffee table not far away, instantly drawing blood from a hole in her forehead.
His stomach also fell heavily to the ground.
Su Hongying didn't even cry out in pain. Her face turned as white as paper in an instant, and blood immediately appeared below her body, soaking her cotton pants in the blink of an eye.
The whole family was terrified.
Old Zhang sighed twice, "Zheng Xiulan, look what you've done! Bloodshed during the New Year, it's bad luck! You..."
The woman looked at Old Man Zhang in disbelief.
An eight-month pregnant woman, who could potentially die along with her unborn child, and his first reaction was that it was bad luck?
Su Hongying exclaimed, calling out to Zhang Haijun, "Child, child..."
"Yes, child."
In her panic, Zheng Xiulan realized what was happening and told Zhang Haijun to carry the baby inside, intending to deliver Su Hongying's baby at home.
"Are you all crazy?"
The woman stopped them, saying, "She needs to go to the hospital; she'll die if she gives birth at home."
"...No, we have to save the child, save my grandson..."
The woman couldn't believe it and shouted, "She can't have a child like this. If we don't send her to the hospital soon, she and her unborn child will both die. Not only will the mother die, but your grandson will also be lost."
Zheng Xiulan swallowed hard when she saw Su Hongying's pale and eerie face before finally letting go.
Even so, when she arrived at the hospital, all she wanted was her eldest grandson.
Even though the doctors and nurses repeatedly told her that there was no such thing as saving the baby, that the baby had no human rights before birth, and that the surgery had to save the mother first, Zheng Xiulan refused and kept delaying it.
She also said, "If you can't perform the surgery and don't deliver my grandson, we'll both die. I'll sue you unethical doctors and nurses..."
As the woman said this, her eyes still held disbelief as she looked at Zheng Xiulan, "Crazy."
Li Banxia was horrified. She stared at Zheng Xiulan and asked, "Are you even human? You've given birth to three children yourself. Don't you know that childbirth is a life-or-death situation? Are you trying to kill her?!"
"...Didn't we bring him to the hospital?" Zheng Xiulan felt guilty, but unwilling to lose face, she tried to argue her point.
Li Banxia's eyes were icy cold as she leaned towards Zheng Xiulan. "You actually dare to humiliate my daughter like this just because you can't get any advantage over my family? Zheng Xiulan, if anything happens to my daughter, I'll make you and your eldest son pay for her life! I'll make your Zhang family infamous in your workplace! I'll make sure your three sons never get married, and I'll make sure your Zhang family line ends!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she grabbed Zheng Xiulan by the neck!
At that moment, he truly felt the urge to kill.
"Ah ah..."
Zheng Xiulan was being choked and couldn't breathe. She clung to Li Banxia's hand and screamed, "Help! Li Banxia is going to strangle me! Ah... cough... ugh..."
Su Laosan was still spitting.
He said, "It would be best to strangle you; keeping someone like you around is just asking for trouble."
The woman sensed something was wrong. Zheng Xiulan's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. She cried out and rushed over to Li Banxia, "Auntie, Auntie, she can't breathe! If you really strangle her, you'll lose your case even if you were in the right. Don't worry, I'm on your side. I'll testify for Su Hongying. People like her should be punished by law. Let's go to her workplace and ruin her reputation. Don't dirty your hands, it's not worth it..."
Li Banxia wouldn't listen to a word. Su Laoda and Su Laosan exchanged a glance, then quickly let go of the small pen in their hands and went over to pry Li Banxia's hands open.
The two sons saw that Li Banxia's eyes were bloodshot, frighteningly red.
The eldest son choked up and said, "Mom, my sister is a lucky person, she'll be alright."
Su Laosan echoed with two "Hey, hey" sounds.
He said, "Yes, people say that evil deeds last a thousand years. Su Hongying was never a good person since she was a child, so she won't die so early."
Boss Su, "..."
