Reborn and Divorced: I'm Raising My Kids and Lying Low to Get Rich

Opening her eyes, Chen Hong was reborn. She was reborn just before she was about to take her children back to her parents' home. Not wanting to live a life of looking at others' faces for a...

Chapter 188 Mother Gone, Father Remains

She rattled off the whole story of how her daughter had been dating Yu Hai for several years, and how Yu Hai had divorced and then married her daughter.

Yu Hai said that these past few days, the people in his ward and the nurses have been ignoring him and not being enthusiastic at all.

He finally caught her red-handed and realized it was his mother-in-law who had done this stupid thing. She's quite the character, digging her own grave.

Damn it, if someone's unreliable, they're unreliable, but they especially target their own people! Yu Hai quietly told Liu Lan about this.

Liu Lan: No wonder she felt the doctor was squeezing her uterus harder on the last day. Was it because she listened to her mother and had a bad impression of her, that the doctor deliberately tried to punish her?

Liu Lan and Yu Hai said, "Anyway, we don't need to remove the stitches. Go ask the doctor when we can be discharged."

The baby needs to stay in the incubator for a few more days, so we need to get him discharged quickly. I don't want him to stay in the hospital any longer!

Yu Hai didn't want to stay in the hospital anymore; he couldn't stand the strange looks from others!

They were supposed to stay for seven days, but they checked out on the fifth day. The child will have to stay for another four days before they can take him home and feed him themselves.

They hailed a taxi, and the three of them, laden with bags and belongings, left the hospital looking rather dejected.

Lying on her comfortable bed at home, Liu Lan finally felt relaxed and at ease. She pulled the covers over herself and fell asleep immediately.

Once home, it's Grandpa Yu's domain. He buys groceries, cooks, makes soup, cleans, and does laundry. Grandpa Yu comfortably becomes a caregiver.

Aside from food and daily necessities, the old man didn't care about anything else. Serving soup and meals, and taking care of Liu Lan during her postpartum period were all her mother's responsibilities.

Every evening after his son got off work, Yu Hai took care of everything. This period of time had really worn Yu Hai out; he always had dark circles under his eyes and looked like a zombie that had crawled out of a graveyard.

Old Yu was heartbroken. When he was making postpartum meals for his daughter-in-law, he added extra ingredients, intending to also nourish his son.

Unexpectedly, it benefited her mother-in-law. This heartless old woman could only get her to do chores with her daughter; she wouldn't lift a finger to do anything else.

She could eat and sleep well, and she could devour everything, whether it was leftovers from Liu Lan or food that Old Man Yu had specially saved for his son.

This infuriated Old Man Yu, but he couldn't very well refuse to let his mother-in-law eat.

She had no choice but to buy more ingredients and cook more. Her son and daughter-in-law were fine, but after Liu Lan finished her postpartum confinement, her mother gained 30 pounds.

Looking at his mother-in-law's narrowed eyes, Old Man Yu was so angry that his gums ached.

This body fat was all built up with money and good stuff, but instead of nourishing her son, it went to this hapless old woman.

Fortunately, both the adults and children are doing well. The second son is growing stronger and stronger, weighing seven and a half pounds by the time he was a month old. All that money was well spent!

Liu Lan and Yu Hai were planning to throw a full-month celebration to recoup some of the money they'd received as gifts. The birth of this child had cost them over 25,000 yuan in the first month.

Now they not only have no spare money, but they also borrowed 10,000 yuan from their work unit. Fortunately, medical insurance reimbursed them about 5,000 yuan, otherwise they would be even more strapped for cash!

This time, their main goal is to make a profit, so they don't plan to hold a fancy banquet at a big restaurant. They'll just find a small restaurant and set up about ten tables.

Send a message to close relatives and friends, have some celebratory eggs and noodles, spend a little money on a simple banquet, and gather the guests together for a meal.

They're not going to send letters to relatives who don't value relationships or give small monetary gifts. The money they give to such guests wouldn't even cover the cost of the food at the restaurant!

This time, they didn't care about saving face anymore. They've almost lost everything, so they're not going to be so particular anymore.

During Liu Lan's postpartum period, her mother-in-law staged a farce, causing her to develop postpartum illness.

It's unclear which rural relative Liu Lan's mother mentioned the placenta to, especially in front of Liu Lan.

Yu Hai and his son, along with Liu Lan, then learned that Liu Lan's mother had sold the placenta to a small restaurant that day for one hundred yuan!

Upon hearing this, Liu Lan felt nauseous and vomited repeatedly, so she immediately called her father to complain.

It was only then that Yu Hai and his father realized what Liu Lan's mother had done.

That morning she went to the scene of the bombing and murder, to witness the crime scene that had been reported in the news the day before.

When she got home, she even showed off to Liu Lan, as if she had personally experienced the incident.

Liu Lan was so frightened that her water broke. Her excuse about straining her back was just to cover up for her mother!

This mother and daughter are recklessly courting death, and there's no stopping them. Liu Lan's mother has only been here for less than two months, and she's already caused trouble both upstairs and downstairs.

Yu Hai was not surprised at all that her neighbors nicknamed her a "war profiteer".

I'm just a little curious: how did the neighbors know about Liu Lan's nickname? Do rumors spread faster than online news these days?

The anger wasn't the main problem; the key issue was that Liu Lan was still in her postpartum period, even though her father immediately dropped everything at the construction site after receiving the call.

That evening, he came home and beat his mother-in-law, but it still caused irreversible and serious damage to Liu Lan: she could not eat meat or smell meat!

As soon as I smell or see meat (whether it's beef, lamb, pork, chicken, duck, or goose), I can't help but feel nauseous and vomit. Sometimes I vomit so hard that the vomit even comes out of my nostrils, which is quite frightening.

During the second half of her postpartum period, she could only eat soy products, chicken and goose eggs, and fish.

When I brought the baby home, my breast milk was working well, and the baby was changing every day, getting all chubby.

After all that trouble, Liu Lan and her baby's breast milk supply decreased immediately. If they hadn't quickly mixed it with formula, the baby would have gone hungry.

Liu Lan's weight hadn't increased for several days, which worried her family greatly. Finally, after trying many methods, including medication and folk remedies, she was able to eat fish and drink fish soup again.
