Chapter 3 Spirit Spring Space
Su Xiangwan had no idea that Gu Yanxiao had no intention of letting her suffer with them; he had already made arrangements for her and her child's future.
After leaving the ward, she found a corner to sit down, seemingly resting with her eyes closed, but in reality, she was trying to contact her spiritual spring space.
Yes, space.
After sensing that the Spirit Spring Space had indeed followed her, Su Xiangwan finally felt relieved.
She acquired this space by accident when she was a child.
Inside, there is a sacred spring, a bamboo house, and a huge warehouse in the backyard.
Inside the warehouse, various daily necessities were neatly arranged.
As an orphan, she never felt safe.
In a warehouse with a defined space, once time has stopped passing, any spare money will be used to buy and store living supplies.
Looking at the warehouse full of supplies, she finally understood where her previous unfounded sense of urgency and unease came from.
With these supplies, even in the 1970s when food and clothing were scarce, she no longer had to worry.
After confirming that there were no problems with the space, Su Xiangwan stood up and prepared to go home.
"Su Xiangwan?"
Just then, a voice called out to her.
Ahead, a chubby girl with two braids walked over with an arrogant expression: "What are you doing at the hospital? Are you here for an abortion?"
Su Xiangwan frowned, her gaze towards the girl carrying a complex and unreadable expression.
After all, it takes some skill to be able to eat yourself into a pig-like state during an era of scarcity.
If she hadn't completely inherited the original owner's memories, she really wouldn't have believed that this chubby girl was actually Gu Yanxiao's cousin.
"no."
Su Xiangwan shook her head, not intending to say anything more to her.
Gu Yanni's face darkened, and she stopped her directly: "What do you mean? Don't tell me you're not planning to abort the child again?"
Gu Yanni kept her parents' instructions firmly in mind and was determined to make Su Xiangwan abort the child in her womb.
Otherwise, if Su Xiangwan gives birth to a boy and regains her grandfather's favor, it will be troublesome.
They had gone to great lengths to persuade Grandpa to give up on the eldest son's family, and they couldn't let something happen to Su Xiangwan's child.
Su Xiangwan snorted coldly: "Whether I have the child or not is none of your business."
In fact, the original owner's antics over the past few months are inextricably linked to Gu Yanni in front of him.
After getting married, Gu Yanni, the cousin, tried every means to please the original owner of the body and tricked her out of a lot of good things.
Even the idea of having Gu's parents kneel and kowtow in public was suggested by Gu Yanni to the original owner.
Gu Yanni was taken aback by Su Xiangwan's words. Could it be that this fool had seen through her thoughts?
"Xiang Wan, why would you say that? We're good friends. I'm just concerned about you. Do you really want to have a child with that ex-convict Gu Yanxiao? Then your child will be a little ex-convict!"
Gu Yanni decided to appease Su Xiangwan first, and then deal with her properly after she aborted the child.
Looking at her hypocritical appearance, Su Xiangwan thought of something and deliberately sighed, saying, "Do you think I don't want to? But abortion costs money, doesn't it? I don't have any money right now, and the doctor won't perform the surgery!"
Hearing this, Gu Yanni breathed a sigh of relief and took out ten yuan from her pocket: "You should have said it was because of money earlier. We're good friends, how could I not help you?"
"Ten yuan?"
Su Xiangwan's face darkened: "Yanni, do you think ten yuan is enough? Besides, I'll need to recover and find a place to stay after the divorce, so I'll need at least a hundred yuan."
Gu Yanni was dumbfounded: "One hundred yuan?! Why don't you just rob me?"
Su Xiangwan curled her lips slightly. Wasn't she just scrambling for it?
"Actually, if I were willing to have the child, Gu Yanxiao would probably be willing to give me more."
Gu Yanni's face turned cold, it seemed she had underestimated Su Xiangwan: "I don't have a hundred yuan right now, I need to go back and ask my mother for it."
"Okay, I'll wait for you here tomorrow." I'm still going to bring Gu Yanxiao food anyway.
Watching Gu Yanni leave in a huff, Su Xiangwan smiled faintly and walked towards the Gu family home on her own.
In the corner, Shao Zijie spoke indignantly: "Commander, Su Xiangwan is definitely up to no good. She said she was willing to have the child, but she's clearly just trying to scam you out of your money! If you hadn't happened to be going for a checkup and witnessed this, you would have really been fooled by her!"
Gu Yanxiao stared at Su Xiangwan's departing figure, his gaze deep and unfathomable, making it impossible to discern his thoughts.
"Commander, should I...?"
"Wait a minute..." Gu Yanxiao shook his head. If it were before today, he would have had the same thought as Shao Zijie.
However, thinking of the glare Su Xiangwan gave him just now...
That domineering and irresistible concern made him willing to believe that Su Xiangwan was not that kind of person.
Family-oriented.
As soon as Su Xiangwan entered the door, Gu's mother carefully greeted her: "Xiangwan, you're back. Are you hungry? Mom will go get you some rice."
"Mom, you don't need to bother. I ate with Yan Xiao while I was at the hospital," Su Xiangwan quickly called out to Gu's mother.
When I heard her say the word "Mom".
Not only Gu's mother, but even Gu's father, who was standing to the side, was stunned for a moment.
Since the news broke that they were going to be purged, Su Xiangwan not only stopped calling her "Mom," but even pointed her finger at her and called them disgusting.
It's all their fault for offending someone, which dragged her down with them.
Otherwise, even if she were a capitalist, she wouldn't have been targeted by those people; she would have gone abroad to live a good life long ago.
Gu's mother was so angry that she cried more than once, but she forced herself to endure it for the sake of the child in her womb.
Gu Yanxiao didn't know how much longer he could live. If something happened to him, the child in Su Xiangwan's belly would be the only thing the old couple had left to live on.
"Then, would you like to go back to your room and rest for a while?" Mrs. Gu asked cautiously.
Seeing the expectant looks on the two elderly people's faces, Su Xiangwan said, "Dad, Mom, don't worry! I won't divorce Yan Xiao, and I will take good care of the baby."
Are you serious?
The surprise was so unexpected that Gu's mother, who had been exhausted for many days, swayed and almost fell to the ground.
"Mom." Su Xiangwan quickly stepped forward to help her sit down on the sofa. "Mom, are you alright?"
"I'm fine." Seeing the concern in Su Xiangwan's eyes, Gu's mother quickly waved her hand.
My daughter-in-law is pregnant now, so we can't frighten her.
"Mom is just too happy." As she spoke, Gu's mother's eyes reddened, and tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.
God knows how much pressure she's been under these days.
If Su Xiangwan really aborted the child in her belly, she might as well just kill herself.
Although that's what she thought, she didn't dare say it out loud.
She is a woman herself and knows how difficult it is to be a woman.
Especially considering Su Xiangwan's identity, if it weren't for the burden of their Gu family, she would have already escaped abroad and wouldn't be suffering here.
With her son in this state, how could she possibly ask her daughter-in-law to bear an uncertain future and have their child?
