Chapter 42: Shen Jiao Seeks Death
Shen Qin has never cared much about family matters.
As for Wu Wenwan, she didn't care about the child and never thought about changing his name.
Because she had always called the child Niu Niu, Niu Niu, Chen Baomei had never paid attention to the name, so she didn't expect that Shen Qin and others didn't even change the child's name.
It was not until Chen Baomei discovered the truth on her child's tombstone after his death.
In her previous life, the name Cao Niu followed her granddaughter for eighteen years and never changed until her death.
Don’t they think it’s inappropriate to call a little girl Cao Niu?
They knew, but they just didn't care about the child.
When Chen Baomei suggested changing the name back, Shen Jiao's face suddenly turned pale and he looked at Wu Wenwan with hazy eyes.
If she doesn't even have a name, can she continue to live in the Shen family in the future?
Chen Baomei added, "You can keep the person, but the name must be changed."
Shen Qin pondered and said, "We didn't think it through. We'll go change Niuniu's name later."
Chen Jiao bit her lip and said, "Mom, I don't want the name Cao Niu. It's too ugly."
"Ugly? It's your biological parents who gave you the name. You kept calling me 'Cao Niu Cao Niu' before, and I thought you liked it."
Chen Baomei didn't think there was anything shameful in arguing with a half-grown child.
She speaks very directly, clearly stating her attitude.
She hates this fake granddaughter!
He deliberately called his granddaughter Cao Niu, wasn't he just trying to make fun of her?
If she had no ill intentions, why would she be unhappy when it happened to me?
"Old lady, can you please stop provoking her?" Wu Wenwan said resentfully.
Chen Jiao was almost crying, which made Wu Wenwan feel particularly distressed.
"Okay, if the name doesn't change, let's just give Niuniu a new name."
"real?"
Shen Jiao looked at Wu Wenwan, then at Shen Qin.
Shen Qin nodded in agreement.
There is no need to change the name, just give Niu Niu another name.
As for Chen Jiao, they were used to calling him that, and they couldn't adapt to the sudden change to another name.
Like his mother said, changing the name back would be even worse.
Nowadays, who would name a girl Cao? They wouldn’t be afraid of being laughed at if they told others about it.
Chen Baomei sneered.
"You couldn't bear to see a criminal's daughter named Cao Niu, yet they wanted to kill your own child. You are so generous and kind that you and your wife should be given seats at the Leshan Giant Buddha."
Hearing the sarcasm in Chen Baomei's words, Shen Qin was also helpless.
Everyone knew that Shen Qin and his wife did not want to send Shen Jiao away, but after learning what Shen Jiao's biological parents had done, they also fell into deep doubts.
What exactly do Shen Qin and his wife want?
Don’t they feel sorry for their own daughter?
Pairs of scrutinizing eyes fell on Chen Jiao again.
Chen Jiao finally couldn't bear it anymore and ran away with his face covered.
Wu Wenwan glared at Chen Baomei unhappily, "Old lady, do you really have to be so picky about a child like her?"
After she finished speaking, she quickly ran out to chase Chen Jiao.
Wu Hui stamped his feet and ran out as well.
Chen Baomei snorted.
"Genes are something you can't change. When a child is born, doctors always ask if there are any genetic diseases. She has the blood of that vicious couple in her veins. She's taken over Niuniu's wonderful and happy life. How can we not care?"
Shen Qin ignored his wife and children, but seemed to be lost in thought, no one knew what he was thinking about.
Shen Xingguo said impatiently: "Today is a great day for the child, so please say less."
He wanted to bring Gao Xiuyun to the dinner, but Shen Qin did not agree.
Because of this, he was a little unhappy.
Now that Chen Baomei has caused such a fuss again, he feels even more upset.
Chen Baomei raised her eyebrows. "Hey, you still have objections to my fair words? What? Do you want to raise someone else's child too?"
Shen Xingguo is not the type of person who would help others raise children. He values bloodline more than anyone else.
He also offered suggestions, but unfortunately Shen Qin and his wife did not listen to him.
Shen Xingguo scowled, "I'm not a fool. I don't want to raise my own child, but I'm being taken advantage of and having someone else raise one. It's fine if I have a conscience, but I'm afraid I'll be so ungrateful that I end up raising an ungrateful child!"
Shen Qin's eyebrows trembled when he heard this.
My heart, which was already somewhat wavering, completely tilted to the other side.
The atmosphere was quiet for a moment because of the departure of Wu Wenwan and the two children, but soon everyone became lively again with drinks and chatter.
After eating and drinking, Chen Baomei suggested taking Lu Caoniu back home to stay for a few days.
There is still some time before school starts, and there are a lot of things to deal with at home. If the child stays at home, he will inevitably be affected, so Shen Qin agreed.
Chen Baomei had already vacated the room originally reserved for Shen Qin's family, and after rearranging it, she let Lu Caoniu live in it.
The three generations of grandparents and grandchildren returned to the village. As soon as they got home, Lu Caoniu couldn't sit still. Just like before, she never stopped working.
There were a few fallen leaves in the yard that Chen Baomei had just swept yesterday. Lu Caoniu also picked up the broom and swept it again, sweeping it clean without a speck of dust.
Chen Baomei couldn't stop shouting.
The grandmother and granddaughter cooked dinner together, but Chen Baomei didn't let her do more. She basically just helped Chen Baomei and did some light work.
I originally wanted the child to stay here for a few more days, but Wu Wenwan called me early the next morning.
It is said that Chen Jiao committed suicide by cutting his wrists at home this morning.
Let Chen Baomei take Lu Caoniu to the hospital to visit Chen Jiao.
When Lu Caoniu heard the news, she was completely shocked.
Soon she fell into deep self-blame.
"Grandma, is it because I'm back that she's unhappy that she committed suicide?"
Chen Baomei was so angry that smoke came out of her head. This Chen Jiao was so scheming at such a young age. No wonder Niuniu was harmed by her in her previous life.
"Don't worry, she won't die. If she really wanted to commit suicide, she should have chosen to do it in the dead of night when no one would notice. She ran to the bathroom and cut her wrists so early in the morning, as if she was afraid no one would notice. What a clever trick!"
Lu Caoniu didn't understand, "She cut her wrists with a knife, it must have been painful."
Would anyone really threaten their loved ones with their own lives?
Lu Caoniu couldn't quite believe it.
But she also felt that what her grandmother said made sense.
People like her who are reluctant to die will try their best to find a way out for themselves.
If one day she really doesn't want to live anymore, she will definitely find a place where no one knows and end her life quietly.
Chen Baomei didn't want to go to the hospital and even dragged Lu Caoniu to stop her from going.
Just cut your wrists. They are not doctors who can cure diseases. Why go to the hospital?
Besides, she hated Chen Jiao, and Chen Jiao didn't like them, so why bother making this trip?
Wu Wenwan called several times, but Chen Baomei hung up every time.
Shen Qin called again. Chen Baomei knew without hesitation that it was about Shen Jiao cutting her wrists, but she didn't answer the phone.
Just when Chen Baomei thought they had calmed down, Shen Qin actually drove back.
He looked tired and exhausted, but he didn't blame Chen Baomei for not answering the phone.
He opened his mouth and wanted to take Lu Caoniu to the hospital.
Since her biological father had come to pick her up, Lu Caoniu had no choice but to follow him back.
Chen Baomei was afraid that her child would suffer, so she got into the car as well.
It turned out that Shen Qin had mentioned to Wu Wenwan that he wanted to send Shen Jiao away. Wu Wenwan disagreed and had a big fight with Shen Qin. When Shen Jiao found out, she couldn't accept it and committed suicide by cutting her wrists.
The three rushed to the hospital.
I saw Shen Jiao lying on the hospital bed with a pale and weak face, and a thick bandage wrapped around his right wrist.
Wu Wenwan and Wu Hui were both there, and they were carefully coaxing Shen Jiao.
When she saw Lu Caoniu, Wu Wenwan suddenly stood up, walked up to Lu Caoniu, and slapped her hard.
"It's all your fault. If it weren't for you, how could Jiaojiao commit suicide?"
