The old man was stunned. "Yes, that's right. Didn't your father tell you that? He's also involved in this matter. He doesn't care enough about your mother."
After their daughter died, they had many complaints about their son-in-law, which is why they have less contact with each other now.
Zheng Jianjun came several times, but the old couple didn't want to see him at all.
"Why are you eating so much all of a sudden? Pregnant women shouldn't eat so much, right? Wasn't it okay when you were pregnant with me?"
The old couple was silent for a while. "Don't mention it. At that time, in order to take care of your mother, your father found a relative to come and cook for her. Your mother ate very well during her pregnancy."
Zheng Wangshu's heart skipped a beat. She didn't know these things before, but after watching a costume drama, she had heard a little about these things about family feuds.
Too many supplements, a too big belly, and difficult childbirth are fatal, which is also a means for a concubine to ascend to power.
My mother knew Gu Meiqin before. Is it possible that Gu Meiqin wanted to get promoted and killed my mother?
No, no, my grandparents said that my father asked relatives for help. Could it be that this matter is also related to him?
Thinking of this, Zheng Wangshu got goosebumps. She didn't want to believe that Zheng Jianjun would be such a person.
But what's the saying? Don't judge a person by appearances. It seems we'll have to investigate not only Gu Meiqin but Zheng Jianjun as well.
"What's wrong, kid? Why are you asking these questions all of a sudden? Did something happen?"
The old lady was more alert and asked immediately.
Zheng Wangshu shook his head. "Nothing, I just missed my mom, so I asked casually. By the way, have you guys eaten yet?"
The old lady shook her head. "I haven't eaten yet. Aunt Wang is making it. Do you want to stay and eat with us?"
Zheng Wangshu had actually eaten, but she thought that since she had come here with great difficulty, she naturally wanted to get closer to the old couple.
"I haven't eaten yet."
The old lady hesitated for a moment, then said, "Then stay and have dinner together."
Although she felt resentment in her heart, this was her daughter's only flesh and blood after all. But she now knew she was wrong, and he had a face just like her daughter, so she couldn't help but feel a little more tolerant.
"Okay, you and Grandpa wait, I'll go help Aunt Wang and make you two of my specialties."
Having said that, Zheng Wangshu stood up and prepared to go out.
Unexpectedly, the old lady reached out and grabbed her arm.
"You're pregnant now, so don't work. Aunt Wang can handle it alone."
Zheng Wangshu turned her head, feeling the warmth on her arm. Her heart warmed, and she said seriously, "Grandma, I haven't been here for a long time. Now that I'm here, it's natural for me to show my filial piety. Now that my mother is gone, as your granddaughter, I should have taken better care of you. I was ignorant before and did a lot of wrong things. Now that I'm pregnant and will soon be a mother, I understand your painstaking efforts and should do what I can. Besides, I'm not that weak, and being pregnant won't affect my cooking."
Zheng Wangshu said this and then left the living room and went to the kitchen.
The old couple looked at each other with surprise in their eyes.
"This child is finally getting his bearings. It's not easy."
The old lady nodded, and then said, "Don't keep remembering the past. Yanlin has been gone for such a long time. Wangshu is her flesh and blood after all. Even if he was naive, that was in the past. Be nice to this child in the future, otherwise Yanlin's spirit in heaven will not be able to rest in peace."
The old man sighed and patted the back of his wife's hand.
"Okay, I understand."
After the meal was ready, Zheng Wangshu stayed with them for a while before leaving.
The old couple were reluctant to let her go and asked her to come back often when she had time.
Zheng Wangshu nodded. After leaving the hospital, the smile on his face disappeared almost instantly, and instead became a little more frosty.
No, this matter must be investigated thoroughly. If her mother's death was really premeditated, she would not let any of these people go!
We took a bus to the farm and found that my sister-in-law had already started selling braised food. Business was pretty good. There were many people doing small businesses on the road next to the farm, and many of them were selling food.
Zhou Jingchuan is quite efficient in his work. Yesterday he helped Zheng Guiying prepare the cart for selling braised food.
Zheng Guiying was also very happy to see Zheng Wangshu and quickly called her over.
"Wangshu, you are amazing. Just from the braised food you taught me, guess how much money I have made today."
Zheng Wangshu raised his eyebrows. "She should be around 20 or 30, right?"
Zheng Guiying shook her head. "It's more than twenty or thirty, it's almost fifty. I didn't expect to make so much money."
Zheng Guiying was very obedient. Before she started selling the goods today, she put some for everyone to try. If it tasted good, they would buy it. If it didn't taste good, they wouldn't buy it. This was also taught to her by Zheng Wangshu.
Unexpectedly, after trying the food, the customers all thought it was delicious and bought a lot of it.
"That's good, as long as we make money."
Afraid that Zheng Guiying couldn't handle it alone, the old lady also helped out. She would take out the money she earned and count it when she had nothing to do. She was so happy.
At the same time, I felt more and more grateful to Zheng Wangshu. Without her, how could I have such a good life?
Zheng Wangshu stood here for a while before returning to the factory.
Zhou Jingchuan was in a meeting with the workers in the factory. When he saw Zheng Wangshu coming, he said a few words casually and then adjourned the meeting.
"Why did you come here so late today? Did you go home and take a nap?"
Normally, Zheng Wangshu would come to the factory after get off work, but at this time he should be doing something else.
Zheng Wangshu shook his head and said, "I went to my grandparents' house."
Zhou Jingchuan nodded and suddenly said, "There's some progress on the matter I was investigating for you. Let's go to the office and talk about it."
Zheng Wangshu immediately became interested and followed Zhou Jingchuan into the office, eagerly asking, "What did you find out? Tell me quickly."
Zhou Jingchuan nodded. "That child is indeed not the biological child of that couple. They adopted one. They had been married for many years and couldn't have a child. They thought there was something wrong between them, so they adopted one. But they didn't expect that the woman would get pregnant a few years later. That's why they have such a bad attitude towards adoption."
Zheng Wangshu's breathing became much faster due to nervousness.
Sure enough, the child’s background was not simple.
Soon, Zheng Wangshu thought of something else, "Oh, by the way, how old was the child when they took him back?"
If the dead baby boy everyone is talking about is the child we met that day, he should have been sent away right after he was born.
But for most people who adopt a child, it will take at least a few months.
She was confident in Zhou Jingchuan's work. Since he was going to investigate, he would naturally check every detail.
Zhou Jingchuan nodded, "Indeed, they brought him home when he was very young, probably just a few days after he was born."
The two looked at each other and saw something in each other's eyes.
