When Lu Wanling returned home at noon, she learned that Lu Yue had been picked up, which she found hard to accept.
"Mom and Dad, how could you let Gong Ting take the child away?"
Hearing her eldest daughter's words, Lin Guojin asked with some surprise, "Why can't we take her away? Gong Ting is Yueyue's mother after all. If her biological mother wants to take her daughter away, we can't just stop her, can we?"
Lu Wanling said, "But Gong Ting didn't want the child when she got divorced."
Upon hearing her elder sister's words, Lu Wanhong immediately chimed in, "That's right, she's worried that having her daughter with her will hinder her from marrying into a better family."
Lu Chengzong glared at his youngest daughter: "Lu Wanhong, what nonsense are you talking about?"
After being glared at by her father, Lu Wanhong naturally dared not say another word.
Lin Guojin continued, "Alright, Gong Ting is, after all, the child's mother. What mother wouldn't feel sorry for her daughter? She probably just misses her daughter, so she took her away for a few days. You can pick the child up on the weekend."
Hearing her mother say this, Lu Wanling felt somewhat helpless and said, "Even if you're going to take Yueyue away for a few days, you should at least tell us in advance, and then I can prepare things for Yueyue, right? Some of Yueyue's clothes are at our house, as are some of Yueyue's favorite things."
Lin Guojin said, "When Yueyue goes home with her mother, how could her mother not prepare things for her?"
Lu Chengzong reassured her, "Alright, don't worry so much. I believe that as a mother, Gong Ting can still take good care of her daughter."
Lu Wanhong couldn't help but say again, "That's not necessarily true. Yueyue's hair used to be so messy. When she first came, she couldn't even comb it after washing it. I think it's because Gong Ting doesn't take good care of the child."
Lu Chengzong glared at his youngest daughter again: "Can you shut up? You think you're so great? Then go and get the child back?"
Lu Wanhong could only remain silent once again.
Lu Wanling's face was still full of worry.
Lin Guojin could only comfort his eldest daughter: "Alright, alright, Wanling, you've had a tough time taking care of Yueyue lately. Let Yueyue go back to stay with her mother for a few days so you can relax a bit. Otherwise, it's too hard for you to be pregnant and taking care of two children."
Upon hearing her mother's words, Lu Wanhong looked at her eldest sister in surprise: "Sister, you, you're pregnant?"
Lin Guojin quickly stopped his youngest daughter: "What are you shouting about?"
Lu Wanhong quickly covered her mouth and looked at her eldest sister in disbelief.
Lu Wanling could only say, "Yes, I am pregnant. Your brother-in-law and I plan to keep the baby. I have been quite nervous during this time."
Lu Wanhong said, "Big sister, you and brother-in-law are really brave."
Lin Guojin said, "Don't make a fuss here. You're not allowed to tell anyone outside."
Lu Wanhong immediately assured her, "Mom, don't worry, I promise I won't tell anyone."
Lin Guojin continued to reassure his eldest daughter: "Don't be nervous. You should get some rest these next few days. If necessary, let Fanfan stay with us. That way, you and Haidong can get a better rest when you go home at night."
Lu Chengzong also said, "Yes, let Fanfan stay with us for the next few days so you can get some rest."
With her parents' comfort, Lu Wanling, though still worried about her little niece, could only temporarily put aside her thoughts.
Feng Haidong went to the factory to clock in in the morning and chatted with some people there for a while, which took up a lot of time. So he didn't go to his parents-in-law's house for lunch; instead, he ate lunch with everyone at a crayfish restaurant.
During lunch, Yang Chengjian and Dong Xia told Feng Haidong about Gong Ting taking Lu Yue away.
Although Feng Haidong was somewhat surprised to hear the news, he did not react like his wife.
"Oh, it seems that Gong Ting still knows she is a mother and hasn't completely forgotten her child. It's alright, it's a good thing to let her take her daughter away for a few days, so that your Sister Lu can rest for a few days."
Yang Chengjian and Dong Xia were somewhat surprised by Feng Haidong's statement.
Dong Xia hesitated for a moment before asking, "Brother Feng, aren't you worried?"
Feng Haidong asked curiously, "Why should I worry?"
Dong Xia said, "Gong Ting hasn't shown up for a long time, why did she suddenly come to pick up her daughter?"
Feng Haidong said, "There's nothing strange about that. Actually, I've been asking around about her family situation. During this time, Gong Ting should be busy exchanging houses with her brother and sister-in-law."
Yang Chengjian and Dong Xia were taken aback: "Change houses?"
Although Feng Haidong is very busy every day, he appears indifferent to certain things on the surface.
But in reality, he has always been a gossip, and with his extensive network of connections, he is always able to find out about many things.
Feng Haidong heard about Gong Ting's house swap with her brother and sister-in-law not long ago when he ran into his brother-in-law's neighbor on his way to pick up crayfish.
"After discussing it with her brother and sister-in-law, Gong Ting returned the house that my brother-in-law had given her when they divorced to her brother and sister-in-law so that she could take her nephew to live there, and she moved in with her parents."
Yang Chengjian and Dong Xia were taken aback again.
Yang Chengjian, regaining his senses, asked in surprise, "Is it possible to do that?"
Dong Xia asked, "In this way, isn't Gong Ting at a disadvantage?"
Feng Haidong said, "I don't know whether she lost money or not. Maybe her older brother and sister gave her some benefits. Anyway, Gong Ting is living with her parents now."
Before Yang Chengjian and Dong Xia could express their feelings.
Feng Haidong continued, "So, a while ago, it wasn't that she didn't want to come and pick up her child, but she was quite busy. She was busy moving with her brother and sister-in-law and taking care of her parents. She should be less busy recently, so she took her daughter to stay for a few days. After all, they are mother and daughter."
