In the ward, Wang Xue was still under the effects of the anesthesia and had already fallen asleep.
The child was sleeping soundly in the crib next to the hospital bed.
Peng Cuiying went over, lifted the child's blanket, looked between the child's legs, and immediately grinned from ear to ear with joy.
What a grandson!
The child is alright; at least she can explain this to her eldest son.
She felt a little relieved at this point, thinking that things might not be as serious as she had thought.
After all, her eldest son is smart, while that woman He Nian is quite stupid.
Maybe her eldest son can coax He Nian into it, and the matter will be over?
Just as Peng Cuiying was thinking that everything was alright, footsteps sounded in the corridor outside the ward.
Peng Cuiying immediately recognized the sound as Jiang Yongxian's footsteps.
She immediately tensed up.
After adjusting her expression, she humbly went to open the door for Jiang Yongxian.
"Smack!"
The moment the ward door opened, before she could even see who was outside, a hard slap landed on her face.
Then came He Nian's vicious curses, "You old hag, are you so desperate for a pittance every day?"
The Jiang family gave you the house for free out of respect for our family. Yongxian and I also give you twenty yuan a month for living expenses. You're still not satisfied. You want to rent out the house to earn those two yuan in rent, and you even caused a pregnant woman to fall.
Let me tell you, it's fortunate that the pregnant woman and the child are both alright. If anything had happened to them, you could be going to jail!
I won't allow Yongxian to bail you out!
Peng Cuiying was initially stunned by He Nian's slap.
But after He Nian finished speaking, she knew that Jiang Yongxian had already smoothed things over in front of He Nian.
He Nian did not suspect Jiang Yongxian, nor did he think that the child was Jiang Yongxian's.
At this moment, she no longer felt any pain on her face; on the contrary, she felt that He Nian's slap was particularly well done and deserved.
She wiped away her tears with a wronged expression and said apologetically, "Niannian, Mom knows she was wrong. Mom will never be greedy for small gains again."
He Nian glanced at Wang Xue lying on the hospital bed.
Wang Xue wasn't particularly pretty; she had a round face and some freckles around her nose.
In addition, pregnancy caused weight gain, which distorted both her face and figure.
Compared to her, He Nian, who was somewhat dark-skinned and chubby, was full of confidence.
This is also what Jiang Yongxian explained to her: 'He admitted that it was Wang Xue's family member who signed the document, but Wang Xue was only born prematurely because Peng Cuiying caused her to fall.'
He worried that if he didn't sign, and something happened to Wang Xue and the child, Wang Xue's family would be implicated after receiving the news. This was a major reason why she trusted Jiang Yongxian at that time.
She was confident in herself; she didn't believe that someone as pretty as Wang Xue could steal her man.
He Nian felt annoyed when he saw Peng Cuiying like this.
He asked with a look of disgust, "Have you contacted her family?"
"Let me tell you, she has given birth now, and she and the baby are perfectly fine. Yongxian has already paid for the C-section and hospital fees, which is considered compensation for them."
It's impossible for them to stay any longer.
You should immediately notify her family to come over, then go back and pack her things, bring them over, and then avoid contact with her again.
"Also, that house, you're only allowed to live there alone. If you dare to rent it out again and let some shady people live there, I'll have the Jiang family take the house back, and you'll be sent back to Yun County."
Peng Cuiying nodded and agreed repeatedly.
Looking at Peng Cuiying like this, He Nian felt even more contempt and disgust.
She felt it was a waste to say any more words to someone like Peng Cuiying, so she grabbed Jiang Yongxian and started to leave.
He also warned Peng Cuiying, "You've caused this trouble yourself, so deal with it. Don't bother Yongxian anymore and make him and my dad unhappy, understand?"
“I understand, I understand…” Peng Cuiying replied repeatedly.
When Jiang Yongxian was dragged away by He Nian, he couldn't help but glance at the child lying in the crib.
That was his child, but he couldn't even hold him, and he didn't even know if he was a boy or a girl, before he had to leave.
Before leaving, he gave Peng Cuiying a look.
Peng Cuiying understood that her eldest son wanted her to take good care of the child.
She quickly gave her eldest son a reassuring look, while simultaneously signaling to Jiang Yongxian to appease He Nian and prevent her from causing any more trouble.
Peng Cuiying only breathed a sigh of relief after Jiang Yongxian and He Nian left.
Jiang Yongxian and Peng Cuiying spent the New Year in chaos, while Jiang Yiran had an exceptionally miserable time in Hong Kong.
For the New Year's Eve dinner, Zhang Wei bought a lot of braised food and a bottle of wine.
She hadn't eaten meat in a long time, and when she saw the braised dishes, her eyes were glued to them, and she kept swallowing her saliva.
However, Zhang Wei had no intention of giving her anything to eat.
Instead, he tossed her a steamed bun like he was feeding a dog, saying, "Eat up, and then hurry up and get me a few more customers."
"Since it's the New Year, those bastards are willing to spend money, you'd better hurry up and earn more for me!"
Jiang Yiran stared longingly at the braised dishes Zhang Wei had bought, but could only wolf down the steamed buns she had eaten.
Seeing her gaze, Zhang Wei grabbed her chin and asked maliciously, "Want to eat meat?"
Jiang Yiran swallowed hard and nodded frantically.
Zhang Wei, in a fit of rage, kicked her in the stomach, sending her flying. "You think you can eat meat? Get lost!"
Jiang Yiran gasped in pain from the kick, tears streaming down her face and blurring her vision.
At this moment, she couldn't even muster the thought of hating Yang Qiaoqiao.
Her vision blurred as she stared at Zhang Wei's arrogantly laughing face, with only one thought in her mind.
She's trying to escape!
She had to escape the clutches of Zhang Wei, that devil!
Otherwise, even if Zhang Wei didn't beat her to death, she would have contracted those venereal diseases and died sooner or later.
Only by escaping from Zhang Wei can she survive!
