Zhao Zhenzhu remembered that when Zhao Tianyu was arrested in her previous life, Liang Xiaohe was already more than a month pregnant. In other words, Liang Xiaohe would be able to get pregnant in just two months.

Although the child was later miscarried by Liang Xiaohe.

However, this shows that Liang Xiaohe is healthy and can conceive normally, so there is no need for her to seek treatment from any "master of traditional Chinese medicine".

Sending Zhao Tianyu to the hospital for a checkup was a temporary delaying tactic devised by Zhao Zhenzhu.

Delaying it for two months will save you 600 yuan.

Zhao Zhenzhu thought it was a good deal.

"What if it turns out that it's Xiaoyu's problem? Will they still be able to live together?" Wu Meiyun asked worriedly.

In this day and age, men who are infertile are ridiculed.

Wu Meiyun didn't want her son to be pointed at and gossiped about because of money.

“Mom, it might not be Xiaoyu’s problem. I was just saying. Infertility is most likely related to genetics. Xiaoyu and I are both your and Dad’s children. I have two children, so Xiaoyu should be fine.” Seeing Wu Meiyun’s anxiety, Zhao Zhenzhu had a sudden idea and came up with these words to reassure Wu Meiyun.

In fact, Zhao Zhenzhu had not studied this subject, and she did not know whether infertility was related to genetics.

“You’re right, if you can give birth, Xiaoyu should be able to too.” Sure enough, Wu Meiyun was comforted.

"By the way, Mom, did you show Xiaohe's previous medical reports?" Zhao Zhenzhu asked.

“No, Xiaohe just told us that the doctor said she has a bit of uterine coldness and needs to take good care of herself before she can get pregnant,” Wu Meiyun said after a moment of surprise.

Reminded by Zhao Zhenzhu, Wu Meiyun remembered.

For the past two years, Liang Xiaohe has gone to see a doctor by herself. Wu Meiyun offered to accompany her, but Liang Xiaohe refused.

Of course, Liang Xiaohe's excuse was also perfect. She said that there were many germs in the hospital, her mother-in-law was not in good health, and she was worried that her mother-in-law would get sick.

Zhao Tianyu did accompany Liang Xiaohe to the hospital.

However, every time they arrived at the hospital, Liang Xiaohe would find an excuse to send them away.

“Mom, how about… we have Xiaoyu and his wife go to the hospital for a check-up tomorrow? I’ll go with them,” Zhao Zhenzhu said.

“Okay, I’ll talk to Xiaoyu about it tomorrow,” Wu Meiyun agreed.

Zhao Zhenzhu was relieved.

Once Wu Meiyun makes up her mind, she should be able to save the six hundred yuan.

Although Zhao Zhenzhu didn't lack the six hundred yuan, she had a flaw in both her lives: she couldn't stand the slightest waste.

Zhao Zhenzhu can buy fruit that costs several hundred yuan per kilogram without batting an eye, and then buy more after she finishes eating it.

The steamed buns cost only a few cents each. If Zhao Zhenzhu couldn't finish them at the first meal, she would save them to reheat and eat at the next meal.

"Pearl, there's something I find strange. Can you help me analyze it?" Wu Meiyun said after a moment of silence.

“Mom, please speak, I’m listening,” Zhao Zhenzhu asked.

"Your brother just reminded me not to mention your dowry in front of Xiaohe. Do you think... Xiaohe overheard our conversation at noon today?"

“Xiaohe has never given me or your dad a hard time before. But today at noon she was talking back to you and kicking the chair. Something just doesn’t feel right to me.”

“When Xiaoyu came to borrow money from us, I had some doubts. I wondered if Xiaohe knew about the dowry box and deliberately sent Xiaoyu to plunder our family’s wealth.”

"I know it's wrong of me to think this way. But I've never heard of any capable relatives in the Liang family. Where did they find out about the renowned traditional Chinese medicine doctor in the next county?"

"Although your father and I don't have a wide network of connections, we're still better off than the Liang family. We've inquired quite a bit over the past year, but we haven't heard of any renowned traditional Chinese medicine doctor in the next county!"

Wu Meiyun kept rambling on and on.

Zhao Zhenzhu was suddenly startled.

At noon, Zhao Zhenzhu and Wu Meiyun sat under the grapevines talking and did indeed bring up the matter of the dowry box.

At that time, Yunyun went outside and called out "Auntie" before Liang Xiaohe came in.

Could it be that... Liang Xiaohe was really eavesdropping on their conversation?

"Mom, don't overthink it. We'll just keep a close eye on things from now on," Zhao Zhenzhu comforted her. "If Liang Xiaohe has any complaints, she'll say them sooner or later. We just need to wait."

“You’re right, Mom is overthinking it.” Wu Meiyun’s brows relaxed.

After the worries that had been weighing on her heart dissipated, Wu Meiyun quickly fell asleep.

Zhao Zhenzhu, however, couldn't fall asleep.

She needs to sort out the things from her past life.

It's best to pick out something you can talk about and discuss it with your parents beforehand. That way, you can take preventative measures.

Thousands of miles away, in a military region in the south.

In the middle of the night, Zhou Bingchen woke up from his sleep in a cold sweat.

Zhou Bingchen had a nightmare.

In her dream, Zhao Zhenzhu's family members all met with misfortune at the end of this year.

Zhao Tianyu was imprisoned for embezzlement. Wu Meiyun was so shocked that she couldn't catch her breath and died. Overwhelmed with grief, Zhao Qingshan lost his mind and became mentally unstable.

Zhao Zhenzhu took her children back to her parents' home to take care of her father.

When Zhao Qingshan was insane, he held Zhao Zhenzhu's hand and called out "Meiyun". When he was lucid, he looked at Zhao Zhenzhu and silently shed tears.

In less than half a month, Zhao Qingshan lost more than 40 pounds.

Two weeks later, Zhao Qingshan committed suicide by jumping into a well in the middle of the night.

After her father's funeral, Zhao Zhenzhu was kicked out of her parents' home by her sister-in-law, Liang Xiaohe.

Liang Xiaohe called Zhao Zhenzhu a "jinx".

Liang Xiaohe blamed Zhao Tianyu's imprisonment and the deaths of Zhao Qingshan and his wife entirely on Zhao Zhenzhu.
