Chapter 117
Although Lei Mu said "you guys", everyone knew that she was referring specifically to Yao Yi.
There were several times when Lei Mu was cleaning the room for Yao Yi and the others, and Yao Yi would lie beside them, directing Lei Mu to clean this and that. After a while, Yao Yi couldn't find something and would come to Lei Mu to ask where she had put her things.
Lei's mother was so angry that she laughed. Yao Yi was clearly watching her cleaning, and she clearly saw that she didn't move anything, but she still ran to ask her where she put the things.
Sometimes, Lei's mother wanted to just endure it because Yao Yi was pregnant.
If Yao Yi hadn't become more and more aggressive and been looking for trouble every day, Lei's mother really wouldn't have taken this opportunity to say it all out.
After Lei's mother finished speaking, no one spoke at the dinner table.
Although Yao Yi was obviously surprised and dissatisfied, no one paid any attention to her.
After dinner, Yao Yi pulled Lei Xiao to their room and complained to him.
"You heard what Mom said just now, right? How could she do this! I just complained that the egg custard was a bit fishy, and she told me to cook my own meals and clean our room! I'm pregnant with your Lei family's child, how could she do this to me!"
"You were the first one who was dissatisfied with what she did. Since you can eat the food in the state-owned restaurant, why do you always think the food at home tastes fishy? Do you really think the food at home tastes fishy?" Lei Xiao asked, his eyes as if he could see through her.
Yao Yi felt a little guilty, but she insisted, "I didn't mean to say the food at home was fishy. Pregnant women's tastes change. Sometimes I think this is fishy, and sometimes I don't think that is fishy. It's all normal."
"Since mom can't figure out your taste, and only you know it, it's normal for her to let you cook by yourself. It's better than her cooking and you not being able to eat it because it's too fishy, and then going hungry." Lei Xiao said.
Yao Yi's eyes widened. "Lei Xiao, what do you mean?! Do you think I should cook for myself? I'm pregnant with your child!"
"I know you are pregnant with my child. Ever since you confirmed your pregnancy, everyone in the family has been accommodating you, but you are always dissatisfied with this and that. What exactly do you want your family to do?" Lei Xiao said.
"I think what my mother said is very true. Nowadays, there are many families whose daughters-in-law don't have to do any work when they are pregnant. Take your sister-in-law for example. If she were pregnant, would your mother and you let her do nothing? The family has been very accommodating to you, and you are still dissatisfied. Mom only asked you to cook your own meals, not cook for the whole family, nor did she ask you to clean the house. What are you dissatisfied with?"
Yao Yi was furious, her eyes filled with shock and anger. "Even you're blaming me? I'm pregnant with your child, and yet I'm the one in the family who's been the most disliked and blamed for everything wrong?"
Lei Xiao is now annoyed by Yao Yi's words "I'm pregnant with your child".
At first, when he learned that Yao Yi was pregnant, he was very happy. He tried his best not to let Yao Yi do anything, just to make sure that Yao Yi and the baby in her belly were well.
The Lei family was the same. They didn't let Yao Yi do any work and would accommodate her in everything they could.
But what about Yao Yi? Not only was she always finding fault, but whenever she wasn't happy, she'd start saying things like "I'm pregnant with your child" or "I'm pregnant with your flesh and blood," as if the child had become her weapon of arrogance.
"No one blames you. You were the one who was dissatisfied with everyone first. What exactly do you want everyone to do to make you quiet down? Everyone is almost worshipping you, what else do you want?" Lei Xiao's tone was a little heavier.
Yao Yi was both angry and aggrieved: "When did you guys start worshipping me? You seem to care about me on the surface, but in reality, you all despise me behind my back!"
"Can you please be reasonable?" Lei Xiao was annoyed. "If someone really dislikes you, it's your fault!"
"You——" Yao Yi was so angry that her chest heaved violently and she couldn't speak for a long time.
"Okay, okay, I get it. Your Lei family doesn't want this child at all. You don't like me and don't want this child. That's why you stand on your mother's side. That's why your mother lets me cook my own meals and clean my own room." Yao Yi said, "Since you don't want this child, then I don't want it either!"
Yao Yi jumped up on the spot, hitting her stomach as she jumped.
Lei Xiao quickly grabbed her hand and stopped her: "You are crazy!"
Yao Yi really was like a madman, still jumping and hitting her stomach. "I'm not crazy! I'm just doing what your family wishes and don't want this child anymore!"
"Can you please stop making trouble?" Lei Xiao hugged her tightly, stopping her from jumping and hitting his stomach again.
Yao Yi was held in Lei Xiao's arms, unable to move, and cried aggrievedly in Lei Xiao's arms.
She sobbed and said, "It's you who don't want this child... It's you who don't want this child..."
Lei Xiao was angry and annoyed, and his head was full of headaches.
But at this juncture, he could only hold back and coax her: "No one said they didn't want this child."
"Wuwuwu..." Yao Yi continued to cry.
Suddenly, she froze.
Lei Xiao noticed something was wrong with her and thought she was going to cause trouble again. He suppressed his impatience and asked, "What's wrong again?"
The color on Yao Yi's face gradually faded, her lips began to turn white, and she slowly lowered her head.
Lei Xiao followed her gaze and lowered his eyes as well. Then, he noticed that blood was flowing down Yao Yi's legs...
…
Hospital.
The Lei family gathered around the bed. Yao Yi was lying on the bed, his face pale, too embarrassed to face them.
"So, the child was killed by her jumping or beating?" Lei's mother asked Lei Xiao.
Lei Mu's voice was very calm, without any anger in it, but the aura she exuded made it difficult to look directly at her.
Lei Xiao's expression was also very ugly. He nodded and said, "That should be the case. The doctor said the baby was aborted."
Mother Lei sneered, "In my life, I've only seen children aborted accidentally. This is the first time I've seen someone intentionally jump around to abort a child."
Lei Xiao didn't say anything, and Yao Yi was too embarrassed to speak.
If she had known earlier that she would lose the baby in her belly, she would never have jumped around and hit her belly on purpose.
She just wanted to scare Lei Xiao and the Lei family, and didn't really want to get rid of the child!
"Mom..." Yao Yi called out timidly.
Lei's mother didn't even give her a chance to speak, nor did she look at her directly. She interrupted her and asked Lei Xiao, "How long will she be in the hospital?"
"The doctor said to observe for two days and then decide on the date of discharge based on the situation."
Mother Lei nodded and said "hmm".
"Lei Xiao..." Yao Yi called out timidly again.
