The queue outside the duck products store was instantly broken up.
The moment Aunt Zhao rushed over and grabbed Zheng Yulan's hair, all the customers who were chopping ducks and buying duck products formed a circle, craning their necks to watch the drama unfold.
Yang Jianguo immediately tried to step forward to protect Zheng Yulan.
But Zheng Yulan wasn't exactly a pushover; she was always considered inferior as a daughter-in-law, and there was nothing she could do about it.
But now that she's divorced from Wang Dacheng, why should she let Old Lady Zhao bully her?
The moment Aunt Zhao grabbed her hair, she grabbed Aunt Zhao's hair back, yelling, "You disrespectful old woman, stop spouting nonsense! I didn't kidnap your grandson, that's my son!"
"Let me tell you, I've already divorced Wang Dacheng. My son has absolutely nothing to do with your Wang family!"
Aunt Zhao screamed and was completely unable to fight back as Zheng Yulan pulled her.
Jiang Qiaoqiao frowned slightly as she looked at the situation before her, and whispered something in Zhou Yang's ear.
Zhou Yang nodded and ran off immediately.
At this moment, Xiao Guoqing heard the commotion outside and rushed out from inside.
With red eyes, she glared at Aunt Zhao and said, "You big bad guy, don't bully my mother."
"When I was sick, none of you wanted me except my mother. She took me to collect recyclables and eat other people's leftovers. Now that I'm better, I don't want you anymore. Go away!"
Children don't really know how to control their emotions, and as they talked, tears streamed down their faces like beads from a broken string.
Aunt Zhao was extremely embarrassed, feeling that Xiao Guoqing was being inconsiderate by saying such things in front of so many people, making her lose face.
She subconsciously glared at Xiao Guoqing.
Xiao Guoqing was so frightened that he took two steps back, his heels tripping on a raised part of the ground, and he almost fell to the ground.
It was a customer nearby who reached out and helped Xiao Guoqing.
Although Xiao Guoqing didn't fall, his little body was already trembling with fear.
Even the guest who helped Xiao Guoqing up couldn't stand it anymore and couldn't help but say, "That child was just telling the truth, and you glared at him, scaring him like this. If the child wants to go back with you, how can things possibly turn out well?"
Aunt Zhao was naturally shrewish and used to being assertive, so how could she tolerate being lectured by a stranger?
She immediately puffed out her chest and retorted to the man, "I'm taking my own grandson back home, what's it to you! Who do you think you are, interfering in our family's affairs!"
The man was clearly not good at arguing; he was rendered speechless by Aunt Zhao's retort. After a long while, he could only utter one sentence: "Incomprehensible."
"Hey, isn't this Old Lady Zhao? Why are you arguing in someone's shop? Did the people in this shop offend you?"
At this moment, Aunt Xie, who also lived in the cement factory's residential compound, squeezed in from outside the crowd.
Aunt Zhao frowned when she heard her voice.
She and Old Lady Xie had been neighbors for so many years, and the two had fought quite a few times.
This old woman's presence here is not a good thing for her.
But Aunt Zhao's eyes lit up, and she seemed to have instantly found a way to start the argument.
Ignoring Aunt Xie, she plopped down on the ground, slapped her thigh, and wailed and cursed, "Oh my god, that damned duck seller! He's so shameless! He kidnapped my daughter-in-law and grandson! Shameless bastard! May his ancestors for eight generations be covered in sores on his head and oozing pus from his feet..."
Aunt Zhao had no idea that this shop was related to Jiang Qiaoqiao.
But that doesn’t stop her from distorting the facts and cursing people with her mother at the center and her ancestors for eight generations as the radius.
Zheng Yulan looked embarrassed and apologized to Yang Jianguo while stepping forward to stop Aunt Zhao.
Yang Jianguo naturally wouldn't hold a grudge against Zheng Yulan. He was also prepared to step forward and help Zheng Yulan get rid of the old woman, but as soon as he took a step, he saw Jiang Qiaoqiao, who was standing on the outskirts of the crowd, gently shake her head at him.
Although he was somewhat puzzled, he stopped and let Zheng Yulan come forward alone.
When Zheng Yulan stepped forward, she was pulled back by Aunt Xie.
Looking at Aunt Zhao throwing a tantrum on the ground, Aunt Xie said, "Oh, it's too late for you to admit that this is your daughter-in-law and your grandson now, isn't it?"
Back then, when Xiao Guoqing was seriously ill with a high fever, people knelt down and begged you, but you still wouldn't give them money for treatment. Now that the mother has cured her child, divorced your family in Chengdu, and the divorce agreement clearly states that the child lives with his mother, takes the surname Zheng, and has no further connection with your Wang family. And you're still causing trouble?
Besides, weren't you telling everyone in the courtyard the other day that it was a good thing your son got divorced? Yulan was as dumb as a pig, and her son wasn't smart either. Now that they're divorced, are you going to find him a smart, young woman to have a smart grandson? What? Nobody wants your Dacheng, so you've set your sights on Xiao Guoqing again?”
Upon hearing Aunt Xie's words, everyone looked at Aunt Zhao with disdain.
"How dare such a heartless old woman try to snatch a child?"
"If she really takes this child back, and he gets sick again, won't they let him die of illness?"
"What? People like them, if a child doesn't have a mother to protect him, let alone if he gets sick, even if he doesn't get sick, they can torment the child to death."
...
Aunt Zhao was absolutely furious.
She did try to introduce many people to her son during this period, but once they found out that Wang Dacheng had divorced because his child was sick and they wouldn't pay for treatment, they all refused.
Now that the cement plant has changed from a state-owned enterprise to a private one, Wang Dacheng's secure job is no longer secure, and even fewer young women are willing to marry him.
Last night, the family discussed it and decided that instead of marrying a divorced woman who would raise someone else's child, it would be better to take their own child home and raise it themselves.
