Because of the arrest of Gu Tingting and He Aiqing, the atmosphere in the village suddenly became tense.
No one dared to escape when studying the quotations.
As luck would have it, this time Old Mrs. He and her companions sat next to the Su family.
"Jinzhi, do you want to eat egg custard?" Old Mrs. He asked quietly.
Gu Jinzhi nodded. She hadn't eaten since her mother was taken away.
Counting it up, she hasn't eaten for one, two, three, four... many, many days.
The baby fat on her face gradually disappeared.
"Do you see that person?" Old Lady He pointed at Su Qing and said, "She's the wife your father married before. She's half your mother, so to speak. If you want to eat egg custard, go find her. See, her child has milk powder to drink."
Gu Jinzhi was a little hesitant, but she was moved when she saw Xiaowu and Xiaoliu holding their bottles and looking very happy.
"Go ahead, call her mom, and she'll give you delicious food."
Hunger drove Gu Jinzhi to take that step.
She timidly walked to Su Qing's side, tugged at the corner of her clothes, and whispered, "Mom, I'm hungry. I want to eat egg custard and drink malted milk."
Although she spoke quietly, the Su family still heard every word Gu Jinzhi said.
Cheng Fangyi and Su Che hurriedly picked up Xiaowu and Xiaoliu who were drinking milk, fearing that Gu Jinzhi would snatch the children's bottles.
"Whose little kid is this? He's so old but he still doesn't recognize his own mother." Mother Su didn't lower her voice, and her words made everyone look back frequently.
Although Su Qing was not the original owner, he also felt a little uncomfortable.
Gu Jinzhi is only one or two months older than Si Ya, but her existence is blatant proof of He Aiqing's extramarital affair.
The confused onlookers responded: "It's the Gu family's baby. Who else could it be? Which family can raise a baby of this size?"
"Whose family is it? Take him away quickly. You're calling for your mother when you catch him. What's wrong with you?"
Gu Jinzhi looked back at Old Mrs. He, eager to know from her what to do next.
Old Mrs. He turned her head away and pretended not to see it.
"Grandma He is sitting right there. How could she not recognize her own granddaughter? Grandma He, why aren't you so anxious even though your granddaughter is missing?" The enthusiastic crowd pointed to Grandma He's location to Su's mother.
After being discovered, Mrs. He straightened her back, turned around awkwardly, and said with a specious argument, "That's a child, not a dog. Why are you tying me up wherever I go?"
Besides, the land is so small, where can I leave the child? Why worry about it?
Mother Su glared at her fiercely, "There are so many people here, and your child comes to call me his daughter. If there is nothing fishy going on, I will take your surname. Stop treating others like fools every day.
Isn’t there an old saying that goes, “In the end, all your calculations are in vain”? Some people want everything but end up with nothing.
Seeing that she could no longer play dumb, Old Lady He said awkwardly, "Her mother has been arrested. The child misses her mother, but what can I do? Besides, calling your daughter mother a few times won't hurt her."
"Of course not. Just the word 'mother' would make me feel so sick I couldn't eat for days. Don't you know how she came about? My daughter was already several months pregnant, and you still allowed your son to have an affair outside.
To put it bluntly, these two sluts have the nerve to prance around in front of my house. I didn't teach you a lesson, but you're still taking advantage of me."
Gu Jinzhi stood there at a loss, tears streaming down her face.
"Grandma said that she is also my mother. If I call her mother, she will give me egg custard."
"Still dreaming of eating egg custard? You don't care whether you want to eat it or not, damn..." Mother Su swallowed back her curse words. After all, it was all caused by Old Lady He. It was pointless for her to argue with a child like Gu Jinzhi, so she simply dragged the person in front of Old Lady He.
"If you dare to do anything bad to our family again, I will use my hands instead of my mouth."
After being warned, Old Mrs. He finally calmed down and did not find fault with the Su family until the end of the show.
The days passed by in a dull and uneventful manner.
The weather is getting hotter day by day, and you can sweat just by sitting there.
No one cared about the rice seedlings in the fields, and the only remaining well water was used to provide water for the villagers.
In the evening, there was a loud thunder in the sky.
When Xiaowu and Xiaoliu heard thunder for the first time, they were so scared that they kept hiding in the adults' arms.
But I couldn't resist my curiosity and looked outside from time to time.
A pair of big round eyes looked at the dark sky, as if trying to find the source of the sound.
After a while, raindrops as big as beans began to fall.
Cheers broke out in the village, and every household took out anything that could hold water.
Some men even rushed into the rain to take a shower in their shorts.
It was at this time that Cheng Fangyi and Su Che entered the house with their children.
As soon as Su Qianfan entered the door, he was like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins. He put his schoolbag inside the house and rushed into the rain to take a bath like an adult.
Seeing this, Xiaowu and Xiaoliu also wanted to rush out to play in the water.
Su Qing naturally wouldn't allow that. The child was almost one year old, and no matter how much he wanted to stay cool, he couldn't afford to get wet in the rain.
So I squatted down and coaxed her softly, "Wait for me for a moment, okay? I'll get you a bathtub, and we can sit in the bathtub and play in the water, okay?"
Xiaowu and Xiaoliu nodded and waved their hands, signaling Su Qing to go and come back quickly.
Letting Su's mother look after the two children, Su Qing turned and went into the kitchen to boil water.
During this period, Xiaowu and Xiaoliu made a lot of noise.
Looking at his brothers and sisters who were having fun in the rain, the fat boy kept scratching his hair with an anxious look on his face.
"Ahhh..." The whining turned into crying loudly.
