Li Shufang said with a smile, "Father-in-law, could you please bring me back some breakfast?"
Chen Xiaowei felt embarrassed to refuse, so he smiled and said okay, but in his heart he thought Li Shufang was really scheming.
Is it possible to give five cents for your granddaughter's medical treatment and also bring her breakfast?
Li Shufang didn't know what Chen Xiaowei was thinking. When she saw that Chen Xiaowei had agreed, she smiled and praised him.
"My dear in-law, you're so kind. I'm even a little envious of your wife for having such a wonderful man."
Chen Xiaowei exclaimed, "Don't say that."
He pretended not to care, but was secretly delighted.
Seeing the child start crying again, Chen Xiaowei frowned and decided to hand the child over to Chen Jiayi so that she could take the child to see a doctor.
Doesn't this 50 cents belong to him?
On the street, Chen Jiayi set up her stall early in the morning.
Business was pretty good today; we sold out a lot of vegetables.
Just as Chen Jiayi finished calculating the bill for the customer, a hand snatched the money from the customer's hand as she was receiving it.
Chen Jiayi looked up and saw Chen Xiaowei.
He held the child with a gloomy expression, and the child kept whimpering.
The moment Dingxiang saw Chen Jiayi, she reached out to hug her.
The customer said angrily, "Who are you? Why are you robbing me?"
Chen Xiaowei glared at her. "I'm Chen Jiayi's father! My daughter's money is my money, isn't it?"
The customer chuckled and said, "Then you should give me your change! It'll be 82 cents."
Upon hearing this, Chen Xiaowei immediately said to Chen Jiayi, "Didn't you hear me? Hurry up and give her the money!"
Chen Jiayi shrugged. "I haven't received the money, how am I supposed to find it?"
Upon hearing this, the customer immediately said fiercely to Chen Xiaowei, "Give me back my money, or I'll call the police!"
Chen Xiaowei glared fiercely at Chen Jiayi, then reluctantly returned the money to the customer.
Chen Xiaowei watched helplessly as Chen Jiayi gave the customer 82 cents in change, while keeping one dollar for herself.
He stared at the one yuan, his eyes filled with desire.
Seeing that Chen Jiayi was free, he directly handed the child over to her.
Chen Jiayi frowned. "Where's Ding Haowen?"
When Chen Xiaowei saw that Chen Jiayi wouldn't take the child, he simply placed the child on Chen Jiayi's stall.
"The child is sick, and you, as the mother, aren't doing anything about it! Take the child to see a doctor!"
His tone was commanding, and he left without waiting for Chen Jiayi's reply or not, abandoning the child and leaving.
Chen Jiayi laughed in exasperation, but at the same time she realized that if she continued to stay in Lotus Town, she would be harassed every day.
Chen Jiayi glared at Dingxiang, holding her breath, and rubbed her temples.
We can't let the child stay here all the time; it'll interfere with her business.
She gave the woman next door two cents and asked her to watch the stall for her.
Chen Jiayi was holding her child when she smelled a foul odor on the road and noticed that her pants were wet, realizing that she had defecated.
Helpless, she took the baby home, changed the baby's diaper, washed the baby's bottom, and hung the baby's pants to dry.
Chen Jiayi's face turned pale. "You have diarrhea and your dad doesn't care?"
The thought of Ding Haowen dumping his child with his mistress on her made Chen Jiayi laugh in anger.
She took Dingxiang to a phone booth and made a call to Ding Haowen's workplace.
When a voice came, Chen Jiayi suppressed her anger.
"Is Ding Haowen one of your graduate students?"
"Please wait a moment—"
Chen Jiayi heard the sound of documents being retrieved, and looking at her restless and fussy child, she was furious.
A moment later, a voice came from the other end.
"What can I do for you?"
Although the other party did not directly confirm it, Chen Jiayi was certain that it was this graduate student.
"Ding Haowen abandoned his child, leaving him on the street and ignoring him completely. Would your company accept someone with such moral character?"
The comrade's voice immediately turned serious, "Hello comrade, thank you for your call. We will verify the truth!"
After making the report, Chen Jiayi felt relieved.
She frowned as she looked at Dingxiang. Although the child was pitiful and suffering now, Chen Jiayi felt heartbroken when she thought about how she had raised the child for the mistress for so many years in her previous life and Dingxiang's ungrateful words before she died.
When she heard that Li Yuzhu was still in town, she immediately decided to send the child to Li Yuzhu.
When Chen Jiayi arrived at the hospital, she asked Li Yuzhu what department she was a doctor in.
Only then did I realize that Li Yuzhu actually worked in the pediatrics department of a hospital.
She couldn't help but laugh. Li Yuzhu looked after so many children every day, yet she didn't care about her own.
What a wonderful mother!
Chen Jiayi carried the child directly to Li Yuzhu's office. When Li Yuzhu saw Chen Jiayi there, her expression changed.
Chen Jiayi curled her lips, "Li Yuzhu, you don't care about your own child and you dump him on me, what kind of behavior is that?"
There were other doctors and patients in the office, and when they heard Chen Jiayi's words, all their eyes immediately turned to them.
Li Yuzhu was shocked! She never expected Chen Jiayi to know the truth.
But she forced herself to remain calm and said, "Sister-in-law, what nonsense are you talking about? My husband has been dead for years, how could I have a child?"
Dr. Zhang, Li Yuzhu's colleague, couldn't help but speak up for her, saying, "Yes, comrade."
Chen Jiayi sneered, "Isn't Dingxiang your child with Ding Haowen!"
It was like a shocking revelation, causing an uproar among the crowd.
Li Yuzhu's face turned pale, and she put on a wronged expression.
"Sister-in-law, how could you frame me? Haowen and I are completely innocent, we have no relationship whatsoever. If you frame me like this, my reputation will be ruined, how am I supposed to live?"
“Exactly! You’re a woman too, why make things difficult for other women?” Dr. Zhang frowned. She had a pretty good impression of her new colleague, Li Yuzhu.
Li Yuzhu speaks gently and is kind to everyone. She never complains about her patients in private.
The patient who came to see Li Yuzhu looked at her suspiciously. She felt that Li Yuzhu looked very familiar. When she saw Chen Jiayi, she immediately remembered who Li Yuzhu was.
She exclaimed in sudden realization, "Oh! You're the mistress! I saw you all arguing with that woman's husband outside the police station that day!"
She stood up abruptly, her eyes filled with disgust.
"I want to change doctors. I don't want to be treated by the doctor who treats mistresses."
Upon hearing this, Li Yuzhu's eyes welled up with tears of anger.
Damn Chen Jiayi, what's she doing causing trouble in her office?
She bit her lip. "Sister, how can you talk such nonsense? I've been doing an internship in western Sichuan. This child is almost two years old, and my husband has only been dead for a little over two years. I can't possibly come back here specifically to have an affair with her husband, can I?"
Chen Jiayi sneered, "You can't come back. My husband will come looking for you!"
Ding Haowen was studying in Haicheng City and didn't go home during that time. Who knows if he went to see Li Yuzhu?
Li Yuzhu shed tears, looking like a delicate beauty who had been bullied.
Her voice choked with sobs, "Sister-in-law, are you trying to force me to die by framing me like this?"
Chen Jiayi placed the child on Li Yuzhu's desk and pointed to Dingxiang.
"Do you dare to do a DNA test with this child?"
