Bai Xingxing rushed to the hospital to deliver food to Tang Liren and the others, and then hurried back.
The whole family then sat around the dining table in the courtyard to eat.
Bai Xingxing said, "...When I went to deliver the meal, I told mom about Fourth Sister making money by reselling eggs. Mom was so happy that she said Fourth Sister has made a name for herself and can do business to earn money to buy meat and honor her parents. I will make white sugar cake for Fourth Sister when I am done with my busy schedule!"
Bai Taotao's eyes lit up. "White sugar cake? Is it better than meat?"
Everyone couldn't help laughing.
Red Bean, "Auntie, white sugar cake tastes better than meat! Especially the white sugar cake made by grandma, it is soft and fluffy, eat it when it is hot, and it melts into honey in your mouth, fragrant and sweet!"
Bai Taotao licked her lips.
Soybean, "White sugar cake tastes a hundred times better than meat!"
Bai Taotao suddenly felt that the meat didn't taste good anymore. "Then let my second brother get a divorce quickly, and call mom back to make white sugar cakes for us!"
Everyone: ...
Tan Fenghui, "Taotao, do you dislike your second sister-in-law so much?"
Bai Taotao thought about it carefully, but couldn't recall any impression of Chen Lanfen from her memory, so she told the truth, "I don't even know her..."
Everyone looked at each other.
Yes, Chen Lanfen has been married into the Bai family for more than three months, but she is not close to anyone. Moreover, out of thirty days in a month, she lives in her mother's house for more than twenty days.
Even so, every time she came to her husband's house, she always quarreled with others and especially liked to gossip. Whenever they heard about some "confidential incident" in the eldest wife's house, they would turn around and tell Chen Juxiang, making everyone on edge all day long.
As long as Tang Liren gave Chen Lanfen a few words of advice, she would burst into tears and tell everyone how difficult it was to get along with her mother-in-law, sisters-in-law, and younger sisters-in-law...
Over time, her family members stopped talking to her.
Bai Taotao is the purest and simplest person, she knows best who treats her well. Even she said she didn't recognize Chen Lanfen, and everyone felt that this Chen Lanfen was indeed not on the same page as their family.
Everyone picked up their bowls and lowered their heads to eat.
Fragrant rice paired with stewed pork with cabbage and a spoonful of gravy, it’s so delicious!
While eating, Bai Xingxing suddenly remembered something, "Oh, I heard that my second sister-in-law had a difficult delivery! I heard from my mother that the baby was too big to be born, and she had to have an operation to cut open her belly..."
Bai Taotao was so frightened that she stared with her eyes wide open while holding a piece of stewed meat in her mouth, and even forgot to chew it.
——Is giving birth to a child so scary?
Tan Fenghui was also startled. She held her belly and asked, "Cesarean section? Has it been done yet?"
Bai Xingxing, "Let's do a cesarean section. It seems like they are doing it now..."
Tan Fenghui was still terrified. "If the baby is too big to be born, then I have to cut my belly? Oh my God, is the baby in my belly big?"
Bai Zhenggan, "Don't scare yourself! She is different from you! She is a woman. When she first married into our family, she was so thin that she could be blown away by a gust of wind... Look at her appetite! I didn't eat as much as she did when I was a blacksmith! She has been in our house for three months. She doesn't have to work and has a full meal every day. Look at her. Not only has she become whiter, but she has also gained weight... At least 50 kilograms!"
Bai Lili also comforted Tan Fenghui, "Don't worry, sister-in-law. Your previous births of red beans and yellow beans went smoothly, so this time it won't be a problem either."
Tan Fenghui thought about it and still felt uneasy. "I'll go to the hospital after dinner and change Mom back so that she can have a good rest. I can also ask Dongsheng to accompany me for another checkup."
Bai Zhenggan, "Go ahead! Li Zi should also go over and see if she can help!"
Bai Lili, "But I also want to go to the market to see if I can stock up on some live chickens and ducks..."
Tan Fenghui thought for a moment, "Lizi, let's do this. Let's go to the market to find out the situation first, and then we'll go to the hospital together. If your sister-in-law is okay at the hospital and I can handle it alone, then you can come back and do your thing. If I can't handle your sister-in-law alone, then you can stay there with me. Mom will be back when we get there, and with Mom here, we don't have to worry about not getting things done."
Bai Lili nodded, "Let's do it!"
Bai Taotao was not as strong as Xingxing. After running back and forth for the whole morning, she was really tired. And after having a full meal, she fell asleep in a daze.
When she woke up, she heard the voice of her mother Tang Liren.
"… By the way, when I came back, I met Caixia at the entrance of the alley. Caixia asked me if I knew anyone who knew foreign languages. I said I was a rural woman, how could I know anyone like that? She asked me if the educated youth in your village knew foreign languages. I said, well! They sound intellectuals, but in my opinion, they don’t know foreign languages…"
Bai Zhenggan said, "Xiao Song can speak it! Last time I heard him say that he can speak two foreign languages. By the way, why did Caixia look for someone who can speak foreign languages?"
Tang Liren said: "How would I know? She just asked me once, and I just heard it..."
"Mom!" Bai Taotao shouted excitedly, and jumped up. Sure enough, she saw her mother sitting beside the kang bed.
Taotao rushed over, "Mom, are you tired?"
Tang Liren hugged her daughter distressedly, "Mom is not tired, I have been back to sleep with you for two hours... But I woke up earlier than you, dear, I heard that you went to the street to sell eggs early in the morning? Are you exhausted?"
Bai Taotao nodded, "I was tired this morning, but I feel better now. Mom, I've earned money to buy meat. Is the Chinese cabbage stewed with meat for lunch delicious?"
"It's delicious!" Tang Liren said with a smile, "This is the first time Mom has eaten such delicious Chinese cabbage stewed with meat!"
Bai Taotao was very satisfied, "I will work hard to earn money in the future so that my parents can eat meat every day!"
Tang Liren laughed out loud, feeling that all her troubles were cured by her beautiful and well-behaved baby daughter, and she couldn't help but feel in a good mood.
Bai Taotao asked a few questions about things in the hospital.
Tang Liren doesn't like to talk too much, so she simply explained the situation:
——Chen Lanfen underwent a caesarean section and gave birth to a baby boy weighing 25 pounds. Both mother and child are safe.
——Now Bai Dongsheng and Tan Fenghui are guarding the hospital, while Tang Liren and Nansheng have come back to rest.
——From now on, everyone will take turns to go to the hospital to take care of Chen Lanfen.
——The doctor said that Chen Lanfen could be discharged from the hospital in seven days and the recovery time would be at least one month.
Then Tang Liren added, "Your second uncle and his family will arrive the day after tomorrow, everyone should come."
Bai Taotao understood clearly.
The divorce battle between my second brother and his wife is about to begin, and maybe this is also a battle for the Bai family to separate.
Bai Zheng laughed dryly and said, "Don't worry about having no meat, Taotao. Your sister-in-law, your third sister, and Xingzi went out to buy chickens and ducks. They bought thirty or forty of them, and an old hen. She laid an egg as soon as she got home... Do you want to go outside and take a look?"
Bai Taotao's eyes lit up!
She has never seen a hen lay eggs. She has heard from her sisters before that when the egg is just laid, the eggshell is soft and it takes a while to harden?
No, I have to go and see it!
==
Two days later, all the members of the Bai family arrived at the county town, exhausted.
Of course, this also includes Chen Juxiang and Bai Zhenggan’s three brothers and their families.
They all brought their children, the elderly and the young, and there were about seventy or eighty people. They didn't know the truth yet and thought they were here to congratulate Chen Lanfen for giving birth to a big fat grandson for the Bai family's eldest wife. So they were laughing and talking all the way, until they entered the Bai family's yard, and then they found that the Bai family... all had sad faces?
Everyone was startled, not knowing what was going on, so they all held their breath and dared not speak.
Chen Juxiang didn't notice how ugly Bai Zhenggan and his wife's faces were.
She cares more about this yard.
——This courtyard has white walls and green tiles, a high roof and a large courtyard. The layout of the houses is in the shape of an "奥" character. All of them are two-story buildings. The main house, east house and west house are all two-story. Moreover, the courtyard and the house, inside and out, are all kept clean and tidy.
At first glance, it is obviously a house where rich people live.
"Whose house is this?" Chen Juxiang asked.
Tang Liren: "Rented."
Chen Juxiang's eyes sparkled. "Rented? How much did it cost?"
Tang Liren: "Two dollars a day."
Chen Juxiang showed an expression of envy and heartache, "Two dollars a day! Are you willing to spend that?"
What can't you do with this money? I have to go to the city to rent a house!
Tang Liren, "Mom, we didn't come here to rent a house for fun, but because your grandniece Chen Lanfen is going to give birth to a baby!"
Chen Juxiang looked disapproving, "Which woman doesn't have children? Is it worth it to rent a house in the city just for her to have a child?"
Tsk tsk, the big house still has money, the rent is only two dollars a day, it’s rented immediately! It would be great if she could take this money!
At this moment, the children suddenly started to make a noise.
It turned out that Huangdou and Xiaoshitou (the eldest grandson of his second uncle, four years old) were playing together. Huangdou was showing Xiaoshitou his collection of the past few days: two wooden sticks of similar length and thickness, two "Y"-shaped tree branches of similar size, and several stones with particularly unusual patterns.
Huang Dou, "Look, little stone, these two sticks are our golden hoop! And this tree branch, we will ask Uncle Aimin (the second uncle's second son) to help us put rubber bands on it, and it will be a slingshot! And this stone... Look, the pattern on this stone, does it look like Sun Wukong?"
As a result, Guicai (the eight-year-old youngest son of Li Cui'er, the fourth wife) rushed over, snatched the stick and started swinging it.
Huang Dou was anxious, "Uncle Guicai, give it back to me!"
Guicai mocked Huangdou, "You two are worthy of being Sun Wukong? You are so fat, you are Zhu Bajie!" Then he pointed a wooden stick at Xiao Shitou, "You can't even make a fart after three hits, you are Sha Monk! I am Sun Wukong - hey! Monster, where are you going to escape!"
Not only did he steal the stick, he also wanted to snatch the stone that Huang Dou was holding in his hand.
But Huangdou was already on guard. He clenched his little hands tightly and resolutely defended his stone.
Unable to snatch the precious wealth, he pinched a handful of soybeans heavily.
Huang Dou felt the pain and cried, "Uncle Guicai stole my golden hoop and pinched me..."
Guicai became angry and humiliated, so he pushed Huangdou hard. Huang Dou couldn't stand steadily, fell to the ground and burst into tears.
Xiao Shitou quickly grabbed another stick and hit Guicai with it, screaming angrily, "Give the golden hoop back to Huangdou!"
Guicai rolled his eyes, threw away the stick, and fell to the ground, starting to cry and throw a tantrum, "Ah! I don't want to live anymore, you all bully me..."
I don't know who muttered -
"Guicai is just like his mother, crying and wailing at every turn!"
Chen Juxiang's attention was attracted by Guicai's crying and she hurried over. Without saying a word, she raised her hand and slapped Xiao Shitou hard, making a dull "slap" sound, and cursed: "You damn little bastard, who are you bullying?"
Little Shitou was stunned and in pain, tears welled up in his eyes, but he bit his lips stubbornly and refused to cry, looking at Chen Juxiang with a wronged and angry look.
Aunt Bai rushed over and hugged Xiao Shitou in her arms, and said to Chen Juxiang, "Mom, the child did something wrong. You could have talked to him nicely, why did you hit him? How old is he and how old are you?" As she spoke, she took off Xiao Shitou's clothes and saw a palm-sized red mark on the little child's shoulder.
Everyone has their own scale in their hearts, but Chen Juxiang is of a higher generation, so no one can say anything and just glares at her.
Chen Juxiang was also very angry.
The three boys from the fourth room are all her favorites. Xiao Shitou beat Guicai, and the second room's son dared to favor Xiao Shitou?
Chen Juxiang was furious and yelled, "Are you blind? Or deaf? Didn't you see that it was your little brat who beat Guicai? I am old and I still have to discipline your child for you. Don't you feel guilty? We can still talk nicely... If you can raise your grandson well, would he commit the crime of committing treason and beating Guicai? Guicai is his uncle!"
Second Aunt Bai was gentle, calm, and not good at speaking. When she heard Chen Juxiang's obviously biased but righteous words, she didn't know what to say for a moment. She could only hug Xiao Shitou tightly, her eyes red with anger.
At this time, Bai Lili had already gone over and picked up Huang Dou who was sitting on the ground and brought him to Bai Taotao.
——Bai Taotao is protected by the whole family, and it is safest to be with her.
Bai Taotao hugged Huang Dou, looked at the child's swollen palm, and said loudly: "Huang Dou, do you know why your grandmother is so partial?"
Huang Dou was only four years old. He only knew that A Tai had never liked his family and had always been partial to his fourth uncle's family, but he never knew why. So he cried and shook his head, "No, I don't know."
Bai Taotao, "Because she is your grandfather's stepmother. That's what stepmothers are like. They will beat up the descendants of the original wife without mercy."
The courtyard suddenly became silent.
Chen Juxiang's face turned pale.
Huang Dou was stunned and asked, "Then, then where is my dear A-Tai?"
Bai Taotao sighed, "Your dear grandmother is no longer with us! If she were still here, she would have felt so sad to see Huang Dou being bullied by his stepmother's grandson!"
Huang Dou cried, "I don't want to be a bad grandpa, I, I want to kiss grandpa..."
The eyes of seventy or eighty people were all focused on Chen Juxiang's face.
Chen Juxiang was so angry that she was like a Buddha born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven. She walked towards Bai Taotao with a gloomy face.
But was stopped by Bai Nansheng?
Bai Nansheng's expression was even uglier than Chen Juxiang's, and his eyes were filled with red murderous intent.
Chen Juxiang was stunned, and her arrogance immediately disappeared.
——Of course she knew how funny Bai Nansheng was.
When he was a child, he was bullied by villagers. He was small and could not beat them, so he got up in the middle of the night, went to the production team, opened the door of the pigpen, and drove three or four big fat pigs into that family's kitchen. The next morning, people discovered that all the food in the kitchen had been wasted by those pigs, and the owner was also branded as a pig thief! It was not until many years later when Bai Nansheng let the secret slip that everyone found out.
When he was a teenager, he was once framed and insulted by a gossipy woman. He held a grudge against her, so he caught a non-venomous rat snake and threw it into the toilet. When the woman went to the toilet, she saw a snake and was so scared that she ran out with her pants in her hands, crying and urinating in public, completely losing face... Although it was later proved that Bai Nansheng was indeed maliciously framed by the woman, no one dared to provoke him again.
Not only is he a bad guy, he also has high fighting power.
A few years ago in the autumn, blind bears often broke into the production team's cornfields and destroyed the corn. The villagers arranged a night watch to scare the blind bears away... Coincidentally, Bai Nansheng, who was on guard that night, came face to face with a blind bear. Everyone else was scared and ran away, so he was the only one who rushed forward with his fists raised, and in the end both he and the bear were injured.
Of course, it was the villagers nearby who hit the enamel basin with wooden sticks and shouted loudly, which scared the blind bear away.
Bai Nansheng holds a grudge.
After recovering from his injuries, he sneaked into the forest alone with dry food and a kitchen knife, and chased the blind bear for four or five days, driving it to the border of the next next next next township...
It was still discovered by other hunters. The blind bear had been tortured half to death by Bai Nansheng. They quickly reported it to the township government, which in turn asked the forest police for help. The forest police stopped Bai Nansheng in time, and the blind bear survived and was sent to the zoo.
Everyone then realized that Bai Nansheng had this ability, and no longer dared to look down on or offend the Bai family.
But because of this, no one dared to associate with Bai Nansheng, so much so that when Tang Liren wanted to find a wife for him, no girl in the surrounding area dared to marry him. Even if Tang Liren racked her brains to go to other places to meet him, the girl would run away after just one or two days with him...
Chen Juxiang wanted to marry Chen Lanfen to Bai Nansheng because Bai Nansheng couldn't find a wife.
After all, if one is notorious, no one will dare to marry him; if one is notorious, no one will want to marry him.
Under Chen Juxiang's arrangement, Chen Lanfen hooked him up and went into the cornfield - who among the girls from respectable families would dare to approach him actively? So Chen Lanfen's favor made Bai Nansheng lose his mind.
It was also because Chen Lanfen was the granddaughter of Chen Juxiang's cousin that after Bai Nansheng married Chen Lanfen, under the influence of Chen Lanfen, Bai Nansheng was no longer as cold and hostile to the old woman as before.
Chen Juxiang became more and more convinced that her decision was correct.
Now seeing Bai Nansheng standing in front of him again with a bad look on his face?
She thought, it’s a pity that Chen Lanfen went to the hospital to give birth and is not here now... Otherwise, this young man wouldn’t be like this.
Chen Juxiang cleared her throat and said, "Nansheng, Lanfen is giving birth to your child in the hospital, and you are just staying at home? When a woman gives birth, it's like having one foot in the gate of hell! When other women give birth, their husbands stay in front of the delivery room, why don't you go and take care of them?"
It would be fine if I didn't mention Chen Lanfen, but once I mentioned her——
Bai Nansheng looked at Chen Juxiang with an even colder look in his eyes. "Then other 65-year-old ladies are already dead, why don't you die?"
Chen Juxiang was stunned.
Everyone was also shocked.
——Although it is a new society now, traditional customs are still maintained in rural areas. For example, on good days, you cannot say words like "death", "miserable", "poverty", etc.
Isn't it the time for the eldest branch of the Bai family to have a new baby? Why is it that Bai Nansheng, the owner of the house, has no smile on his face and looks as if his grandmother has died? Even disrespectful to your grandmother?
Everyone felt something was wrong, but they didn't know how to ask.
At this time, Tang Liren finally spoke, "Mom, our Nansheng has to thank you very much! If it weren't for you being the matchmaker and arranging this marriage, Lanfen wouldn't have this good fortune today!"
Her tone was cold, without any expression of joy over the birth of a new baby. Instead, it was filled with a bit of gnashing hatred.
The two oldest elders in the Bai clan looked at each other and started asking questions.
Fourth uncle, "What are you doing? What's going on?"
Grandmother Seven, "I'm fucking my wife, could it be that Nansheng's wife is not good?"
Bai Zhenggan and his wife also looked at each other, and Tang Liren spoke again, "Fourth Uncle, Seventh Grandmother... Chen Lanfen is doing very well! She is now in the hospital. She also gave birth to a big fat boy safely, weighing 25 pounds!"
When they heard that Chen Lanfen was doing well now and had safely given birth to a baby boy, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and were happy.
It was not until they heard Tang Liren's last sentence that everyone felt something was wrong.
No, Chen Lanfen and Bai Er have only been married for more than three months... Even if they had sneaked into the cornfield before they got married and made a big fuss about it, Chen Lanfen became pregnant, so Bai Zhenggan and his wife had no choice but to let Chen Lanfen in.
But hasn’t Chen Lanfen always claimed that she is six months pregnant?
How come a premature baby weighs... 9.8 jin? Wouldn’t it be fatter than a full-term baby? ? ?
For a moment, everyone had different expressions and could no longer utter words of congratulations.
Chen Juxiang's eyebrows twitched violently.
It’s not that she didn’t understand the hidden meaning behind Tang Liren’s words. In fact, she was more sensitive to it. But she also had a countermeasure. She laughed immediately, "So, I said it at the beginning, Lanfen has a good physique! I was right, hahahaha, ever since she got married, you know how good her appetite is. The more she eats, the healthier she is. The baby she is pregnant with...he will be big too, hahahaha..."
There were seventy or eighty people in the yard, but not one of them spoke.
Only Chen Juxiang's shrill laughter echoed throughout the courtyard.
Chen Juxiang laughed for a long time...
Found that no one agreed with her?
So she turned her head and glared at her third daughter-in-law and Li Cui'er fiercely.
Aunt Bai pretended not to see it and turned her head away.
Li Cui'er had no choice but to applaud and said with a smile, "That's right! Nansheng's wife gave birth to a ten-pound boy after being pregnant for more than five months. Hahahahahaha... Isn't this a great joyous event!"
Seeing that no one showed up, Li Cui'er turned around and asked Aunt Bai, "... Third Sister-in-law, don't you think so?"
Aunt Bai was furious. "I have never given birth to a son. How can I know if giving birth to a 10-pound boy after five and a half months of pregnancy is such a great blessing! Didn't you give birth to three sons in a row? Maybe you only need to be pregnant for five months each time to give birth to a 10-pound boy!"
"What? You have to be pregnant for ten months to give birth to a child? What's the use of you! Others only need to be pregnant for five months to give birth, but you are so precious that you have to be pregnant for ten months!"
"What? The son you gave birth to after ten months of pregnancy weighed less than ten pounds? That means you are incompetent! Otherwise, how could Lanfen have such ability?" Aunt Bai started to curse loudly.
Aunt Bai gave birth to four daughters in a row but never a son. She was often scolded by Chen Juxiang. This time she finally got the chance, but she didn't dare to scold Chen Juxiang, so she had to vent her anger on Li Cui'er.
Li Cui'er opened her mouth stupidly.
Everyone: ...
Tang Liren slowly threw out the second bomb. "When Chen Lanfen was hospitalized for delivery, the doctor heard that she was only five and a half months pregnant. No one believed it, after all, her belly was so big. An obstetrician from the provincial capital personally examined her and found that the baby in Chen Lanfen's belly was full-term."
Everyone widened their eyes again.
Chen Juxiang, "Who, who... who is talking nonsense!"
Tang Liren took out something and threw it at Chen Juxiang, saying sternly, "Who said that? It was Professor Shi Yuhua, an obstetrician and gynecologist at the provincial capital's People's Doctors, who said that! It's clearly written in the medical record! Chen Lanfen was actually 40 weeks pregnant, and the placenta was at level three maturity, so the baby was born full-term!"
Chen Juxiang was stunned.
She bent down and picked up the medical record, but she was illiterate and could not understand what was written on it.
She only knew that her daughter-in-law Tang Liren had always been fierce and aggressive, but she had always maintained a sense of respect for her and rarely embarrassed her in front of so many people like she did now.
so?
The secret of Chen Lanfen's pregnancy...
Was it really discovered?
Chen Juxiang was so frightened that she broke out in a cold sweat.
At this time, Li Cui'er spoke up, "Sister-in-law, what is placental maturity?"
Tang Liren had been staying in the obstetrics department of the hospital for the past two days. She had been chasing after doctors and nurses about Chen Lanxiang's affairs. She had asked many questions and had learned a lot of professional terms. She immediately said:
"When it comes to a woman giving birth, it's not like you can give birth to a full-term baby just because you've been pregnant for three or five months. There's scientific evidence for how long a fetus stays in the mother's belly. Take the placenta for example, there are three levels of maturity. If Chen Lanfen was really only five months pregnant, her placenta should be at level two..."
"But her placenta has reached level three maturity, which proves that she has been pregnant for a long time and that the mother has been providing nutrients to the fetus for at least nine months! This was tested in the hospital using scientific instruments! It is more authoritative than your nonsense!"
The scene fell into deathly silence.
None of the women present who had given birth went to the hospital to do so; all of them gave birth at home. Sometimes when the situation is not good, we will go to the health center to ask a doctor to come to our home to check, or directly ask a barefoot doctor...
Tang Liren's words left most people confused, but they also found them very convincing.
Chen Juxiang was stunned for a while, and pretended to tear up the medical record.
Tang Liren sneered and said, "Just tear it up. There's another one at the hospital."
Chen Juxiang paused and said stubbornly, "Who tore it? Let me see... Is it not okay?"
Tang Liren stared at Chen Juxiang and asked directly, "Whose child is Chen Lanfen's?"
Everyone gasped and their eyes were all focused on Bai Nansheng.
Bai Nansheng's eyes were red as he stared at Chen Juxiang fiercely.
Chen Juxiang couldn't help but think of Bai Nansheng's vengeful character, and she felt inexplicably cold all over.
"explain!!!"
Tang Liren shouted loudly.
Chen Juxiang was so frightened that her whole body was shaking. She tried to keep herself calm, and said tremblingly: "Liren, you, you... I, I am your elder after all, you, you..."
"Don't put the blame on me!" Tang Liren yelled angrily, "I told you, I can tolerate your bullying of me, but why don't you try to bully my child?"
Chen Juxiang couldn't help but think of the time when Taotao was still little. Because she was spoiled and small, the girl of eleven or twelve years old looked only seven or eight years old. Tang Li felt sorry for her silly daughter. She knew that Taotao would not say anything when she was cold, hungry, or wronged, so she thought of ways to make her silly daughter eat a boiled egg every day to nourish her body.
Once, Fugui, the eldest son of the fourth room, snatched Taotao's boiled eggs. Tang Liren was not at home at the time, and Chen Juxiang was in charge of the situation. She wondered why a silly girl had to eat eggs every day. Besides, Fugui was a boy and her grandson, so of course she favored the fourth room.
As a result, when Tang Liren came back, she heard that Taotao’s eggs were snatched away by Fuguier? She went crazy and took the door bolt and smashed all the pottery and porcelain in the fourth room's house into pieces! She also beat Fugui, who was only thirteen or fourteen years old at the time, half to death. In the end, even everything in Chen Juxiang's room was smashed by Tang Liren.
Not only that, Tang Liren's parents and brothers also came to support her. More than a dozen strong men "talked" to Chen Juxiang in the Bai family yard for two days and two nights...
Finally, Chen Juxiang was forced to kneel down in front of Tang Liren's mother and kowtow, vowing never to bully Taotao again. Only then did Tang Liren give up.
From then on, Chen Juxiang finally understood a truth - Tang Liren was extremely protective of her child, and even if Taotao was a silly child, she could not be bullied.
Thinking of this, Chen Juxiang began to tremble all over.
--what to do? Bai Nansheng is also Tang Liren’s child! Bai Nansheng is already a scary person, and now there’s Tang Liren? ? ? sky! Why did she come up with such a stupid plan and force Chen Lanfen to seduce Bai Nansheng? !
Chen Juxiang stammered, "I, I...well, I'm just an illiterate old country woman. How would I know what you're talking about...science and evidence?"
As soon as Chen Juxiang loosened her lips, the whole place suddenly became like a hornet's nest, and everyone started whispering to each other.
"Could it be that Chen Lanfen was already pregnant before she married Nansheng?"
"But this marriage was arranged by the old lady! Did she do it on purpose?"
"In my opinion, she did it on purpose, knowing that Zhenggan's family is strong and hardworking!"
"No wonder she's a stepmother. She's so vicious!"
"Nan Sheng spent all his money to support someone else's wife and son. How absurd it must be..."
Li Cui'er stared at Tang Liren for a long time, and suddenly said, "Sister-in-law, if you say that, if we can use machines and science to find out how long Lanfen has been pregnant, then can we also find out who the father of Lanfen's child is?"
Tang Liren had asked the doctor a long time ago, and the doctor said that current scientific research technology could not achieve this, and they could only use the elimination method based on the blood types of the child and Chen Lanfen. Nansheng has already had his blood drawn and tested, confirming that he and Chen Lanfen's child have no blood relationship.
Tang Liren already had an idea in mind. When she heard Li Cuier's question, she answered firmly: "Of course! But..."
As she spoke, she glanced at the tribesmen present and continued, "But the doctor said that in order to find out who the father of Chen Lanfen's child is, we have to do a blood test. Fellow villagers, I want to apologize to everyone in advance..."
Tang Liren bowed to everyone, stood up straight again, and then said: "I hope all the men present, young and old, will go to the hospital to draw blood. I must find out who the father of Chen Lanfen's child is!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone burst into laughter again.
Although most people are not afraid of being criticized for their actions, being asked to do this... is basically humiliating, right?
The fourth uncle said tremblingly, "My dear lady, I am almost ninety years old, so I won't go for blood draw, right?"
Tang Liren smiled and said, "Fourth Uncle, for the sake of fairness, you should go and draw some blood and have it tested. First, you can set an example and take the lead. Second, it's good to have a blood test to check your blood routine to see if you are healthy."
