Chapter 138 Frame-up

"Her mother broke up a military marriage and was caught red-handed. I heard she's still in prison. She'll probably be incarcerated for several years."

Hearing this, Zhou's mother's face turned black with anger. She glared at her son fiercely and said angrily, "Zhou Hao, Zhou Hao, you are really capable. You actually hid such a big thing from me together with this woman!"

"Mom, Xia Jing didn't do this, and it has nothing to do with her."

Hearing this, Zhou's mother was so angry that her face turned black. How could she, who was so smart, have such a stupid son?

"Your daughter-in-law's mother has been in prison. Do you think it will have no impact on the child in the future?"

Zhou Hao was stunned for a moment. He hadn't thought about such a long-term thing.

"I won't agree to your marriage!"

Hearing this, Xia Jing's face turned pale.

She pressed her hands against her belly and pushed forward, "Aunt, this is your grandson!"

"You can have grandchildren, but their mothers must be innocent."

"My Zhou family will never want a woman with a criminal record as a daughter-in-law!"

Xia Jing really wanted to say that she had no criminal record, but when she saw Zhou's mother's gloomy face, she knew that it would be futile to say anything at this moment.

Mother Xia had just heard the news and was still upset. She was the angrier at that moment.

Xia Jing turned around and saw Li Xue covering her lips and laughing. She wanted to go up and tear her smile apart.

It's all this woman's fault. They are close relatives, and there is no grudge between them in the past or in the present. Why does she keep holding on to me?

…

Xia Liang was not surprised to hear the news. She had long known how powerful Zhou's mother was. Even if Xia's mother hadn't been in trouble, she would not have been satisfied with Xia Jing as her daughter-in-law, let alone now that she had a better excuse?

As the matter is not resolved, she will stay here for one night.

Xia Jing will definitely come up with another solution.

Auntie Li looked at Xia Liang with a worried look on her face, but Xia Liang just smiled and said, "Auntie Li, everyone is here, we can start the opera now!"

Hearing that it was time to start, Auntie Li's eyes turned red with excitement. She patted her chest and assured, "Don't worry, my lady, I will help you do this beautifully today."

She is the loudspeaker of the village. Whatever gossip she knows, as long as she wants to tell it, it will spread throughout the village in less than half an hour.

While Xia Jing was still thinking about how to get her mother to agree to their marriage, rumors about her spread rapidly outside.

Li Xue and Yang Hongmei were both surprised when they heard the news.

"I don't think this rumor is credible!" Yang Hongmei frowned. She felt that someone must be trying to harm Xia Jing maliciously.

"Why is it not believable?" Li Xue scratched her head. She was thinking about how to tell Zhou's mother the news.

"Don't look at Xia Jing's expression. She has high standards. How could she possibly be attracted to Liu Quezi?"

"Liu Quezi is an old bachelor. The way he looks at women is so disgusting. And the smell on him..."

As Yang Hongmei was speaking, she suddenly thought of something.

Xia Jing? Liu Quezi?

They say there's no smoke without fire. To be honest, there's nothing going on. How could there be such a rumor?

There was also the strange smell on Liu Guizi's body, which she had smelled before.

And that day...

Yang Hongmei suddenly thought of the man who took advantage of her that day. Although he had been behind her the whole time and she didn't see who he was, she still remembered the smell of that man, which made her want to vomit.

In the past, she never thought that anyone in the village would be so brave.

But what if that person is Liu Guizi?

Did she do that to herself just for Xia Jing? Yang Hongmei remembered clearly that when that man controlled her, the first thing he did was to pull off the silver bracelet on her hand.

Wait, Yang Hongmei suddenly thought of something, and she didn't bother to talk to Li Xue anymore, she turned around and ran into the house.

Li Xue wanted to vent some more, but when she saw Yang Hongmei suddenly run away, she hurriedly shouted, "Yang Hongmei, why are you running away!"

Yang Hongmei ignored her and continued running into the house. Li Xue's eyes rolled around, and she had a feeling that something good was going to happen.

Not wanting to be left behind, she ran in.

Yang Hongmei ran directly to Xia Jing's room. At this time, Xia Jing was still sitting on the kang, and no one knew what he was thinking about.

Yang Hongmei ran in and grabbed Xia Jing's hand.

"Yang Hongmei, what are you doing!"

Xia Jing was also startled and struggled to pull her hand out.

However, at this moment, Yang Hongmei was indeed very strong. She pulled open Xia Jing's sleeves and indeed saw the familiar silver bracelet on her fair wrist.

"This silver bracelet..."

Seeing Yang Hongmei staring at the silver bracelet, Xia Jing felt a little guilty.

But she didn't dare to show any weakness at this moment: "What's wrong with the silver bracelet? It was originally given to me by my mother-in-law!"

"Xia Jing, have you forgotten that you have mortgaged this silver bracelet to me? She has been wearing it on my hand all the time, and I have not returned it to you. Xia Jing, can you tell me how you got the silver bracelet back?"

Xia Jing secretly complained in her heart, how did she know?

It was Liu Guizi who helped her get the silver bracelet back.

"Xia Jing, you deserve to die!" Seeing that Xia Jing did not refute, Yang Hongmei became even more furious. She simply raised her hand and slapped Xia Jing.

Xia Jing is not small in stature, but she is usually too lazy and doesn't do any work. In addition, Yang Hongmei is too angry, so she is no match for Yang Hongmei at this moment.

In the blink of an eye, five or six slaps were given, and the sound of "pa pa pa pa" was extremely crisp.

"Yang Hongmei, are you crazy?"

Xia Jing struggled hard, but how could she be a match for Yang Hongmei?

Yang Hongmei was panting from the beating. Li Xue was stunned watching from behind: "Yang Hongmei, stop beating her. She's pregnant!"

Li Xue reminded her from behind, and Yang Hongmei finally came to her senses. She couldn't help but let out a bitter smile, "Xia Jing, Xia Jing, you really are willing to be a lowly person."

She stared at Xia Jing's belly and sneered, "I originally thought the rumors outside were not true. Even if you, Xia Jing, are so despicable, you would not do such a shameful thing. But now..."

Yang Hongmei laughed out loud, with a hint of sadness in her voice: "Being pregnant with a bastard whose father you don't know, do you think Zhou Hao is being taken advantage of?"

The voice of these words was deliberately raised in volume, and Zhou's mother in the next room also heard it.

"Yang Hongmei, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Xia Jing's face changed. The Zhou family didn't want to marry her in the first place. If word got out at this time that the child was not Zhou Hao's, Zhou Hao's mother would definitely use this reason to directly refuse to marry her.

"I'm talking nonsense? It's all over the place. You sprained your ankle some time ago. When you were in the educated youth center, you were hanging out here with Liu Guizi every day!"

With a loud bang, Xia Jing felt everything in front of her eyes go dark.

Xia Liang! It must be that jerk Xia Liang who spread rumors outside!

She just can't stand seeing herself doing well!

Xia Jing bit her lip tightly and looked at Yang Hongmei coldly: "What nonsense are you talking about? How dare you frame me?"
