Chapter 516 Suspicion is very accurate
Wang Zhaoning's complexion was much better at this time, but her body was still very weak.
Giving birth is very damaging to a woman's qi and blood, so Shen Ci brought some qi and blood supplements from home.
Seeing Shen Ci, Wang Zhaoning’s heart suddenly relaxed: “Why don’t you sleep a little longer?”
"I slept for six or seven hours." Shen Ci pretended not to hear the conversation in the room just now, and handed the things to Yan's mother naturally: "Auntie, I got some supplements for my sister-in-law. You can make them for her later. They are all good things."
"Oh girl, you are so nice to Zhao Ning." Yan's mother took it happily, and did not forget to praise Chen Ci: "You are young and beautiful. Zhao Ning kept praising you this morning."
Shen Ci smiled and said deliberately: "Before my brother got into trouble, he specifically told me to take good care of my sister-in-law. I must do what I said, otherwise he won't be at ease in there."
This sounded like an ordinary sentence at first, but a careful analysis would reveal that Shen Ci meant that she was taking such good care of Wang Zhaoning because of her brother's instructions, so her relationship with Yan Wenxi was closer, and this was also said deliberately for Yan's mother to hear.
Yan's mother didn't react quickly and it took her a while to come to her senses.
"Then our Xizi must trust you very much, girl. Zhaoning also trusts you, which means you are a trustworthy person." said Yan's mother.
Shen Ci pretended to be humble, but actually said deliberately: “My brother helped me a lot, this is what I should do.”
Mother Yan lowered her eyes, her eyeballs rolling around, thinking that it seemed that this little girl was really closer to Xizi.
Thinking of this, she picked up two apples from the table and said, "Girl, I'll wash some apples for you."
"Auntie, please sit down. I'll go."
"Oh, never mind. Don't be so polite."
"Then I'll go with you and wash these too, so you don't have to run back and forth when you want to eat."
"Okay, the little girl is really sensible. Xizi is the same. She recognized such a good sister but didn't even bring her home to meet me." Mother Yan held Chen Ci's hand affectionately.
Chen Ci did not resist. She looked at Wang Zhaoning and gave her a wink. Wang Zhaoning immediately understood that Chen Ci had heard what she had just said, so she nodded slightly.
No matter what Shen Ci wants to do, she trusts him 100%.
Besides, in her current state, she doesn't have the extra energy to deal with these things.
After leaving the ward, Yan's mother talked to Chen Ci warmly as they walked, mostly asking her how old she was and whether she had any personal information after graduation.
It was not until they arrived at the pool that Yan's mother grabbed Shen Ci and showed a worried expression.
Seeing this, Shen Ci showed concern and asked, "What's wrong, Auntie?"
"Ah." Mother Yan sighed softly, looked at Chen Ci and said, "Miss, since you are Xizi's sister, Auntie will not treat you as an outsider. There are some things that Auntie doesn't know who to talk to."
"Auntie, just tell me what you want to say. You are my brother's mother. I am willing to take care of you for him while he is away."
Shen Ci spoke seriously, and Yan's mother had no idea how cunning a young girl like her could be. She just thought she was serious: "Zhao Ning has given birth to a child now, but there is no solution to your brother's matter."
"As for me, I don't have much ability. Once your brother went in, the backbone of the whole family was broken. I also always have wild thoughts."
At this point, Yan's mother lowered her voice with a nervous look on her face and said, "Miss, I heard Zhao Ning say that she's living in your house now. So you must meet her often, right?"
Chen Ci nodded: "Yes, she is pregnant, and she doesn't want to go to the hospital to give birth. Although Sister Lin takes good care of her, I basically go to see her every two days. Now that she has given birth, I feel much more relieved."
"Auntie, what do you want to say?" Shen Ci looked at Yan's mother and asked.
Mother Yan pursed her lips in embarrassment before saying, "I have something on my mind. I'm worried, but I don't know how to tell Zhao Ning."
She looked up at Shen Ci: "Miss, I'm afraid Zhao Ning will abandon Xizi."
"Ah?" Shen Ci was slightly surprised and followed her words: "Auntie, are you afraid that my sister-in-law will file for divorce while my brother is serving his sentence?"
Mother Yan nodded. "Yes, they say husband and wife are birds of a feather, but when disaster strikes, they fly away separately. I'm willing to believe Zhao Ning, but how can you be sure of that?"
"And I've consulted a lawyer. In a situation like your brother and your sister-in-law's, as long as your sister-in-law files for divorce, they'll definitely be able to get it."
Chen Ci nodded with an expression of "I see," and said with the same worry: "Auntie, what you said is not impossible. Although my brother and sister-in-law are very loving, no one can guarantee that this relationship will not have any changes in the future. In addition, my brother is serving a prison sentence, so it's really hard to say."
"Isn't it?" When Yan's mother heard Shen Ci agree with her guess, she immediately became energetic and continued, "And your brother is both smart and confused. When he was smart, you see, although he was arrested, the company was saved, the house and car he bought for me were saved, and even his brother was saved."
"Look, when he was confused, he didn't tell his family about the company or the property. Zhao Ning said she didn't know, but I definitely don't believe it. Your brother must have told her. Who else could he tell her? To an outsider? He wouldn't be that confused!"
Chen Ci nodded and said, "So, Auntie, you are worried that my sister-in-law will divorce my brother, and my brother will hand over the company and some private property to my sister-in-law. Then my sister-in-law will take everything away?"
"That's right!" Yan's mother clapped her hands, revealing a look of worry, but she also pretended to be conflicted. "Logically speaking, your sister-in-law gave birth to a son and a daughter for your brother. She's a great contributor to our Yan family. As a mother-in-law, I shouldn't doubt her like this. But as a mother, I have to consider your brother. He arranged everything so well and saved so much property. He's definitely going to make a comeback. If I don't help him protect it, wouldn't it be my fault as a mother?"
This set of rhetoric came down smoothly, and Shen Ci was secretly shocked that this uneducated old lady could think and explain it so clearly.
It seems that her suspicion was very accurate, these words were definitely taught to the old lady by Yan Wentao.
But as for the old lady, Shen Ci was not in a hurry to make a conclusion, because there were two possibilities. One was that she was in cahoots with Yan Wentao and wanted to plunder all the assets of her brother's company. The other was that she was brainwashed by her second son. Because most old ladies like her had no backbone, and with only her second son by her side, she believed whatever he said.
But no matter which one it was, Shen Ci couldn't do anything too excessive to the old lady.
The reason is simple, just because she is my brother's biological mother, I will never hurt her in any way.
There is one more update, but I’m writing it a bit slowly, so I’ll post it in half an hour.
