Seeing that the old lady of the Feng family had vented her anger enough, Xia Jia walked over, squatted down, and slapped Hu Juan several times.
"Do you know who I am? I am Cheng Yue's mother."
Hu Juan opened her eyes and struggled to stand up, but the old lady of the Feng family wouldn't let her turn over. The old woman, who had worked all her life, was quite strong and quickly pushed her down again.
"Isn't that surprising?"
"All of this was caused by Cheng Yue," Hu Juan asked angrily. Wasn't Cheng Yue supposed to be stupid? How could she do such things?
Liu Haifeng didn't say he could "get rid of" that woman; this is what he meant by "get rid of."
"Oh, so you hate my daughter now?" Xia Jia grabbed her hair and met her hateful gaze. "I heard that when you got together with my son-in-law, you both had your own families. You two are having an affair. I have to be a concerned citizen and report you. I'll at least be a starving couple for once. Otherwise, how can I face you after all your scheming?"
Knowing that the situation was hopeless, Hu Juan decided to vent her anger and said, "Your daughter can't give birth to a son, but I gave birth to a son for Haifeng. If it weren't for the fact that the child looks like him and I was afraid that the Feng family would find out, I wouldn't have bothered to raise her daughter."
Do you know what kind of life your granddaughter is living here with me? She's my little slave. If I tell her to go east, she won't dare go west. If I tell her to catch a dog, she won't dare chase a chicken.
Every time I see her struggling to survive in my hands, I feel an extraordinary sense of satisfaction.
By the way, you haven't seen that wretched girl yet, have you? She looks exactly like your daughter, but with that same face, she suffers my abuse every day.
Haha, well, this is the worst-case scenario anyway. At least I've lived a comfortable life these past few years.
"When you meet people," Xia Jia said, pulling out a handful of her hair. "You've had a comfortable life these past few years, but your good days are coming to an end."
Do you want to know what happened to your lover? And don't forget your own son, that bastard…”
"What did you do to that child?" Hu Juan struggled, but this only resulted in her being beaten.
"Now you know how to love your son, but that's your own doing."
Now that the whole truth is out, he'll forever carry this stain on his reputation, and he can forget about ever living an upright life again. Having parents like you is his tragedy. Xia Jia suddenly felt a sense of despondency. What good did it do to beat up both sides?
With her son's help, Xia Jia stood up and looked at Old Mrs. Feng, "We have already received compensation from the Liu family. You are also victims, so don't let her get away with it so easily."
Old Mrs. Feng had the same idea; she wanted to get back the principal with interest, so she told her nephew who had come with her to go straight into the house and ransack it.
No one dared to stop them, especially since Hu Juan was now the daughter-in-law of the Feng family. They couldn't possibly interfere in her family affairs.
By the time the song committee members arrived, everything was already set in stone. All they could do was hold a protest against the culprit, which would be a way of giving everyone an explanation.
Seeing that the show had come to an end and that Hu Juan and the Liu family's fate was sealed, Hua Xiangyun took Jiang Yi to the nearby clinic.
The county town is only so big, and they knew its general location, so they found it quickly.
I thought I would see a heartwarming reunion, but I didn't expect Cheng Yue to linger outside the clinic, not having the courage to go in.
The other women standing nearby quietly stood by, their faces full of sympathy.
As mothers themselves, they couldn't even imagine what they would do if their own children were maliciously switched like this.
I heard that the child has had a very difficult life all these years; it can only be described as miserable.
Although Cheng Yue was innocent in this matter and could not imagine that the Liu family would be so ruthless, there were signs all these years. If she had been more careful, would this matter have come to light sooner?
Sister-in-law Cheng remembered what her sister-in-law had said. She knew that she had been enlightened by the master, which meant that the master had some real skills. When the next fortune-telling day came, she would have to go early to queue up and also have her family's future predicted.
“This step has to be taken eventually,” said Sister-in-law Cheng, seeing that no one else was saying anything. She gritted her teeth and went up to her, supporting her shoulder. “For that child, it’s like he’s come out of the mud. What’s there to hesitate about?”
Cheng Yue, "I'm scared..."
Sister-in-law Cheng was confused. They had come this far, how could they still hesitate? "What are you afraid of? The Liu family has already been dealt with, and you can't go back. What's there to be afraid of?"
Cheng Yue said, "I'm afraid my child won't accept me, and I'm also afraid I won't be able to give her a good life in the future."
Second Sister-in-law Cheng released her hand, looking at her with a complicated expression. "So you don't want to acknowledge this child either, or you want to give her up?"
If that's the case, then she really needs to get to know her sister-in-law better; after all, she's her own flesh and blood.
Cheng Yue said, "It's not that I want to give up, but I'm not sure. I don't know if she will hate me."
And what about my parents…”
When I sought justice from the Liu family before, I didn't mention the child at all.
Sister-in-law Cheng sighed, "Why are you thinking so much? You have a job, and in your situation, you can apply for a single room in the factory dormitory. Your salary is more than enough to support your child, not to mention the large sum of compensation you're entitled to."
Although the Cheng family envied the existence of this money, they never really had any designs on it. Their sister-in-law had had a really tough time all these years, constantly being deceived.
Even though the compensation is currently in the hands of my in-laws, they will not try to keep it for themselves.
Cheng Yue said, "I'm afraid I won't be a good mother. I've devoted myself to Liu Yi all these years, but I haven't been able to warm his heart. I've been absent from his life for more than ten years. Will the child recognize me?"
Her inner turmoil made Hua Xiangyun, whose sisters-in-law were secretly watching from the sidelines, want to splash her with a basin of water to wake her up.
Sister-in-law Cheng said, "No matter what, we're already here. Why don't you go in and check on the child? She'll find out about this sooner or later, and see what she has to say. She's a teenager now, and she has her own ideas."
Cheng Ersao simply pushed her inside. As soon as they stepped into the clinic, they saw several people guarding the corridor.
The other person didn't recognize them; they just glanced at them and started talking in hushed tones.
"That widow Hu is truly heartless; I never expected her to bring her lover's child back and abuse him."
"If it weren't for Old Mrs. Feng causing a scene today, we would still be completely in the dark."
"Tingting is too honest. Even though she heard the old lady say that she wasn't the widow's biological daughter, she still went up to protect her. Look how weak she is, one slap knocked her out."
"This is terrible. Didn't the doctor just say it's severe malnutrition?"
