Chapter 194 Good Fate
Since ancient times, it seems that it is natural for mothers-in-law to torture their daughters-in-law. Lu Xiaojing lost a lot of weight because of the torture caused by her mother-in-law.
She felt aggrieved, so naturally she complained to her husband when she got home. Xia Ting'an became the emotional trash can. After so many times, who wouldn't have some emotional impatience?
In addition, the two were young and would quarrel over the slightest disagreement. After Old Mrs. Xia knew that her daughter-in-law had quarreled with her son, she simply asked her son to go home and live.
The more Old Lady Xia looks at Lu Xiaojing, the more she dislikes her. It's okay that she can't have children, but it's not natural for her to take care of her sick mother-in-law. She even quarreled with her husband just because of this.
The relationship between Lu Xiaojing and Xia Ting'an became precarious because of the intervention of Old Lady Xia, especially since Xia Ting'an actually listened to his own mother and moved back to his parents' home. The couple could not see each other and simply started a cold war.
After Ma Lian got the news, she often went to visit the old lady, and then she met Xia Ting'an from time to time. The two gradually started talking and became familiar with each other.
In this way, Ma Lian became Xia Ting'an's confidante. Xia Ting'an felt that she just had a new female friend with whom she could talk, but in Lu Xiaojing's eyes, this was Xia Ting'an's betrayal of their marriage.
The two of them even came to the point of getting a divorce. Xia Ting'an was so upset about this that he went out to drink to drown his sorrows.
Ma Lian, a good friend, naturally couldn't just ignore it when she found out about it. She naturally went to comfort Xia Ting'an and make him feel better.
This single man and woman drank some wine and ate some snacks. Xia Ting'an got drunk without realizing it, and then the two of them lay down on the bed in a daze.
After this happened, Ma Lian demanded that Xia Ting'an must be responsible for her. After all, she gave her innocent body to Xia Ting'an and she couldn't suffer in vain.
Xia Ting'an was very panicked. He didn't know how such a thing could happen, but he was unwilling to fulfill Ma Lian's request. Xia Ting'an knew that his idea was quite rogue. He owed Ma Lian and was willing to make up for it with money.
Although Xia Ting'an and Lu Xiaojing had a big fight, he still had feelings for her and didn't want them to break up like this.
Ma Lian knew about this situation so she didn't make a fuss. She quietly accepted the large compensation from Xia Ting'an and turned around to flatter Old Lady Xia. Her humble attitude made her look more like Old Lady Xia's daughter-in-law than Lu Xiaojing did.
Ma Lian waited for a month, then went to the hospital for a check-up. After confirming that she was pregnant, she ran to find Xia Tingan and showed him the test report.
Xia Tianan couldn't believe it. Just like that, a new life was born. Xia Tingan didn't want to acknowledge the child. He persuaded Ma Lian to abort the child. Ma Lian was really upset and the two started arguing.
This scene "happened" to be seen by Old Lady Xia who was out for a walk. Only then did she know that Ma Lian and her son had had such a relationship, and that Ma Lian was pregnant. The grandson she had been dreaming about was in her belly.
Xia Ting'an persuaded Ma Lian to beat the child, and he was willing to give her some money as compensation. Before Ma Lian could say anything, Old Lady Xia rushed out and stopped her.
That was her grandson, how could she just beat him? He had been looking forward to holding his grandson so much that his eyes were green with envy, and now he finally had one, but Xia Ting'an had to abandon him. That was his own flesh and blood, how could he be so cruel?
Xia Ting'an was scolded by the old lady, and Ma Lian was also aggrieved. She blushed and told the old lady what happened: "We just drank too much that night, and we didn't want this to happen.
But I’m pregnant now, and I can’t let the child be born without a father. ”
Then Ma Lian was taken back home by Old Lady Xia and settled down. The old lady turned around and asked her son to divorce Lu Xiaojing. The old lady's original words were: "You two have been arguing for so long, and Lu Xiaojing didn't come to me to give in. What's wrong? I am so unworthy of being her mother-in-law.
You see, it’s been how long since she got married, but there’s still no sign of pregnancy. I can’t care about so much now. You should go and divorce Lu Xiaojing immediately. I have to make sure my grandson can be registered after he is born! ”
Xia Ting'an left dejectedly. He really didn't want to divorce his wife. On one hand, there were his feelings, and on the other hand, there was his responsibility. This choice was too difficult. He didn't even know how to talk to Lu Xiaojing about it.
Ma Lian looked at the hesitant look on Xia Ting'an's face and she knew that he still needed another strong dose of medicine.
She wanted the Xia family to accept her willingly and without any reservations. Ma Lian didn't want the Xia family to point at her nose and say that she climbed into the family by climbing into bed one day in the future.
Because Ma Lian was brought into the Xia family by Old Lady Xia, it was very convenient for her to act on many things.
Ma Lian prepared a small spray bottle, diluted the rat poison with water, and then sprayed the diluted rat poison on the rice in the pot after serving her meal every day.
Taking too much rat poison can be fatal, but if it is a very small amount, you won't die, but you will definitely suffer from mild poisoning.
After our parents ate the poisonous rice without knowing it, they developed symptoms of dizziness and headaches.
Xia's parents didn't know that they were poisoned. They thought it was just because of their old age or some problem with internal heat. Although they took some medicine to reduce the internal heat, they didn't get better and the dizziness and headaches kept coming back.
These medicines didn't work, so the Xia couple turned to traditional Chinese medicine. Unfortunately, the effect was minimal. After all, no medicine was better than the rat poison that Ma Lian sprayed every day!
Ma Lian spotted the right opportunity. When Old Lady Xia and she went out for a walk, she heard someone muttering about a good fate. People with a good fate not only bring good fortune to their husbands and children, but also the elderly in the family who have some headaches or fevers can just let the person with a good fate donate some blood to the elderly as medicine, and the illness will be cured quickly.
When Old Mrs. Xia heard this, she thought it was nonsense. She had never heard of the pleasure of other people's blood being able to cure an illness.
But what the old lady didn't expect was that after they returned home that day, Ma Lian really took a fruit knife and cut her arm while making medicine for them. Blood instantly oozed out and dripped into the boiling soup pot that exuded the unique bitter taste of Chinese medicine.
This scene "happened" to be seen by Xia's parents. Regardless of whether Ma Lian's actions were useful or not, the two old people were deeply moved.
The old couple drank the bowl of medicine with half belief and half doubt, and they really felt less uncomfortable. After drinking the medicine a few times, their headache and dizziness were cured.
Xia's parents instantly felt that Ma Lian should be their daughter-in-law and the lucky star of their family. Look, she brought them so much prosperity that even their illnesses were cured.
Ma Lian smiled without saying anything, but in fact she just did not spray rat poison into the food. Without the poison continuing to invade her body and she was taking medicine at the same time, how could the disease not be cured!
Xia's parents were stunned by Ma Lian's actions and actually thought that Ma Lian had a good fate!
Xia's parents couldn't stop smiling at Ma Lian. When introducing her to others, they always said that Ma Lian was their daughter-in-law. As for Lu Xiaojing, well, she was their ex-wife.
This matter was passed around and finally reached Lu Xiaojing. Lu Xiaojing couldn't believe her ears. She didn't divorce Xia Tingan, so how could she become his ex-wife inexplicably?
Lu Xiaojing ran to her parents-in-law's house angrily, wanting to ask for an explanation. But when she opened the door, she saw Ma Lian with a bulging belly, and Old Mrs. Xia sitting next to her, peeling an apple for Ma Lian.
