"Where's your husband? I haven't seen him. Your child fell into the water, such a serious incident, why didn't he show up? Is it because he dislikes your changed figure, so he'd rather live in the boiler factory dormitory than live with you?"
"If your husband won't come, you still have your mother-in-law, right? Why won't your mother-in-law come to take care of your daughter? Is it because she doesn't want to? Why? Is it because she's upset that you only gave birth to a granddaughter and didn't get to hold her big, healthy grandson? Sigh, you used to be the most beautiful girl in our cotton mill. How could you have married into such a family? It's so pitiful!"
"Oh, I'm just feeling sorry for you, I didn't scold you, why are you crying?"
Liang Guiying knew that her sudden intrusion would embarrass Zhou Yue, so she wanted Zhou Yue to handle it herself. However, even after hearing all this, Zhou Yue still didn't react and even cried.
How could she possibly tolerate it?
Liang Guiying pushed open the door and entered.
Besides Zhou Yue and her daughter, there was a cleaning lady sweeping the floor in the ward, and a woman with a high ponytail sitting in front of the empty bed.
The woman was about twenty-four or twenty-five years old, wearing a cotton mill uniform with a name tag that read "Trade Union" pinned to her chest.
Liang Guiying didn't even look up: "I heard that there was a woman in the cotton mill whose brain was damaged when she was a child after being caught in a door. She always liked to eat feces, which caused her to spew feces whenever she opened her mouth when she grew up."
After a few seconds, Liang Guiying's eyes locked onto the woman. "It's you, isn't it? Your mouth stinks so badly, I can smell it downstairs."
The cleaning lady burst out laughing.
Zhou Yue had been so upset by Yang Lan's words that she was almost in tears, but after hearing Liang Guiying's two sentences, she suddenly felt much better.
She immediately covered her own nose with one hand and gently pinched Zhou Xiaonian's nose with the other.
Zhou Xiaonian felt uncomfortable and tried to push her hand away, but Liang Guiying said, "There's poop, it stinks, quickly cover your nose!"
The little girl immediately covered her nose: "Ugh~~ Poop stinks!"
Yang Lan was furious.
She jumped up, pointed at Liang Guiying, and demanded, "Who are you? What business is it of yours if I talk to Zhou Yue? I'm warning you, don't meddle in other people's business, or you'll make Zhou Yue regret it tomorrow!"
"I am Liang Guiying, Zhou Yue's mother-in-law. How are you going to make things difficult for her tomorrow?"
"So it's that country bumpkin!" Yang Lan said with disdain. "Since you're Zhou Yue's mother-in-law, then you should keep your daughter-in-law in check! She's a good-for-nothing who was born of a mother but has no father to teach her! She's married and has children, and she's still trying to seduce other women's husbands all the time! She's utterly shameless!"
Snap!
Liang Guiying slapped him across the face.
Yang Lan was dumbfounded: "You dare hit me? You're crazy—"
Smack! Smack! Smack!
Liang Guiying was about to deliver a few more slaps when someone rushed into the ward: "What are you doing?! Stop!"
Yang Lan burst into tears: "Mom, Zhou Yue's mother-in-law hit me, waaaaah!!"
The woman who entered was a shrewd middle-aged woman. She helped Yang Lan up and her sharp eyes locked onto Zhou Yue: "Zhou Yue, is this your mother-in-law?!"
Liang Guiying rushed to Zhou Yue in a few steps, protecting her chicks like a mother hen with her feathers ruffled: "Zhou Yue, who is she?"
Zhou Yue's face turned pale: "She, she is Yang Lan's mother-in-law, and also Director Ye, the director of our cotton mill's trade union."
