Wang Guihua sighed and said, "How could she not speak up for us? It was the village party secretary's wife, that troublemaker, who kept saying bad things about you. Your eldest and second sisters-in-law and I even had a fight with her."
"The village party secretary's wife?!"
Cheng Mingyue's face suddenly turned gloomy. She chewed on these words in her mouth, and soon a mean face suddenly appeared in her mind.
It's her!
Why did she target her like that?!
Cheng Mingyue was suddenly shocked. Could it be because of that scoundrel Wang Can?!
What Wang Guihua said next just confirmed her thoughts.
"Her youngest son was arrested and sentenced to several years in prison, and she insisted that you were the one who seduced her son and caused him to be imprisoned. She also lied to the investigators. Luckily, they didn't believe her, or else she would have been in big trouble."
As soon as Wang Guihua finished speaking, she saw Cheng Mingyue's face change. She was startled and blurted out: "Could they have found you already?!"
Cheng Mingyue nodded and said a few simple words.
"At that time, I was taken away for investigation right after giving birth to little Shitou. It is a blessing from God that I can stand here safely with little Shitou now.
But I won't be afraid anymore. I've already explained everything to the organization, and there won't be any more trouble!"
Although Cheng Mingyue's words seemed to be understated, Wang Guihua didn't think things were that simple.
She was taken away for investigation right after giving birth. How could this not be serious?
It’s all that old hag’s fault. I’ll never let that old woman have an easy time in the future.
Soon Cheng Xiangdong came back with Lu Chen. Cheng Mingyue glanced at them but didn't see Xiao Shitou. She asked quickly, "Where's Xiao Shitou?!"
Cheng Xiangdong tilted his chin back, and Cheng Mingyue turned around to see the village chief grinning and holding Xiao Shitou. Her eyebrows twitched slightly, and her heart felt a little swollen.
The village chief was still feeling guilty and didn't dare to look Cheng Mingyue in the eye. He only looked up at her secretly when she wasn't paying attention. His sneaky look made Wang Guihua roll her eyes.
Should!
Let you be so pretentious!
After scolding, I felt a little uncomfortable.
Accepting the current Yue'er does not mean that they will forget their biological daughter.
Wang Guihua quietly leaned over to the village chief's ear and whispered, "Okay, don't be sad. We'll build a cenotaph for her in a while, and then burn some paper money for her every year. It will be considered as a token of our love as parents."
In the final analysis, it was her own fault. For a man, she jumped into the river and hanged herself. She didn't care about them as her parents at all.
After the village chief and his wife finished speaking, they sighed deeply, looked down at the little stone in their arms, and then they regained their spirits.
Cheng Mingyue went into the kitchen again and took a look around, only to find something was wrong.
"Brother, didn't you say that your sister-in-law gave birth to a daughter? Where's the child?"
"She's still sleeping! She's probably asleep. She spends most of the day sleeping. How could she be so excited?"
When talking about her little girl, Zhang Hongying's eyes and eyebrows were full of joy. Although she said unpleasant words, the smile on her face became deeper and deeper.
"Children are in the growth stage, so it's good for them to get more sleep. Not only will their brains become smarter, but they will also grow taller."
Zhang Hongying's eyes lit up with surprise when she heard this: "Is it true? I used to complain that she slept too much."
"It's okay, as long as I have a regular sleep and rest schedule, I'll be fine." Cheng Mingyue said, then looked at Zhang Lan: "Second sister-in-law, Dad wrote to say you're pregnant too. How long have you been pregnant?"
Zhang Lan said very straightforwardly: "I'm only two months pregnant, it's still early to give birth, and I also hope that I can give birth to a daughter this time."
After Zhang Lan finished speaking, she approached Cheng Mingyue mysteriously and whispered, "Yue'er, I heard that Chinese medicine can tell the baby's gender in advance by taking the pulse. Can you help me check it?"
Cheng Mingyue laughed and said, "Why, if the pulse shows it's a boy, you're not going to keep it?!"
"How could that be possible! A daughter would be even better. If it's really a boy, I'll just accept it!"
After hearing what she said, Cheng Mingyue reached out to feel her pulse. In just a few breaths, Cheng Mingyue was sure.
"Then congratulations to my second sister-in-law for getting what she wanted!"
Zhang Lan was a bit incoherent, holding Cheng Mingyue's arm and shaking it: "Yue'er, you mean that this time I'm really having a girl?"
"That's right! From now on, I can just keep my eldest sister-in-law's daughter company. What a wonderful thing!"
While eating, the whole family knew about this.
The village chief and his wife were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling.
Cheng Mingyue stayed in the Baihe Brigade for more than half a month. Lu Chen received a notice that he would be on a mission and was asked to return to the team as soon as possible. Only then did they prepare to set off for Jing City.
Before leaving, Cheng Mingyue once again asked Cheng Tianlai: "Master, are you really not going to Beijing with me? You are such a good doctor, now is a good time to open a clinic."
Cheng Tianlai shook his head like a rattle again: "No, let's talk about it in a few years."
Cheng Tianlai was the most direct victim of that era. He didn't want to take any more risks. Mingyue asked him to wait for two more years until the situation stabilized before he would consider opening a clinic.
Seeing his firm attitude, Cheng Mingyue no longer forced him and only told him to take good care of himself. She would send things back every now and then and asked him to remember to check them.
After saying goodbye to Cheng Tianlai, Cheng Mingyue returned home and said the same thing again. This time Cheng Xiangnan was also at home.
"Yue'er, do you think it's really feasible to do business now?"
Cheng Mingyue immediately sensed a hint of meaning and hurriedly asked, "Why, second brother, do you have any ideas?"
