“I…” Her words were somewhat incoherent.
“Your child is still young, that’s true, but you’re in a bad state. I know you’ll endure whatever it takes for your child, but what about someday in the future? Your personality will eventually affect your child.”
She said softly, “When your child grows up, you will tell him that you love him very much. He won’t always be a child; he will be able to feel your love.”
"Don't have so many worries," Lin Zhiluo said patiently, "Things can't get any worse than they are now, can they?"
"Okay, I understand." Xiang Xiuhui seemed to have found her pillar of support.
"You can contact me later; I have something else to tell you."
Xiang Xiuhui nodded, like a drowning person clinging to a piece of driftwood.
"What are you doing here? What are you chatting with, some wild man?" Xiang Xiuhui's mother-in-law suddenly opened the bathroom door, ignoring her red and swollen eyes from crying, and directly shoved the child into her arms.
“Look at the child you gave birth to, crying and crying and crying. You should take good care of yourself and give Wang Zong another child. Our Wang family line cannot be broken.”
Because she was carrying a child, Xiang Xiuhui's phone was visible. When she saw that the person opposite her was a beautiful woman, her unpleasant expression eased slightly.
She looked at Xiang Xiuhui with dissatisfaction: "Now that you're married into our family, you shouldn't contact any shady people outside. Just focus on having children. You'll be supported by Wang Zong in our family. Just do what you're supposed to do."
"Excuse me, sir..." Lin Zhiluo knew that people who favored sons over daughters existed in every time and space, and the attitude was even stronger in the world she came from. However, when she was doing divination at the foot of the mountain, she had also seen families who were willing to give their lives for their daughters.
"You good-for-nothing, your husband is cheating on you." Lin Zhiluo had taken the money, so naturally she had to help her out. Since this mother-in-law was so leisurely, she would find her something to do.
"What nonsense are you talking about? My husband and I are very loving, and we've never argued in all these years." After saying that, she tried to snatch Xiang Xiuhui's phone and disconnect.
But no matter what she did, she couldn't turn off the live stream.
Xiang Xiuhui, holding her child, snatched the phone from her hands: "Mom, if my phone breaks, I'll have to use your son's money to get a new one. I've been wanting the latest iPhone for days."
"You!" Wu Huilan's face contorted with rage.
[The master must have used some methods; someone else tried to disconnect last time but failed.]
From this moment on, I believe in Master Lin, and I am a loyal fan of Master Lin.
Suddenly, Lin Zhilu felt a warmth in her body. Looking at the comments of belief, she suddenly had a guess: could it be that the belief from netizens had generated faith?
This thing was a valuable cultivation tool in their previous world.
Lin Zhiluo suddenly became excited, clenching her fists tightly where the phone couldn't see.
Qi Zhiyang asked in confusion, "Why is she so happy all of a sudden? Did she see something extraordinary again?"
Cen Qi was also watching Lin Zhiluo's live stream outside the office. He rubbed his fingers together, thinking that once he got to know Master Lin better, he would definitely ask the master when he could become rich overnight.
“Auntie, please don’t speak so harshly. Your granddaughter is a woman, and you are a woman too. Belittling others won’t make you any more noble,” Lin Zhiluo said to Wu Huilan.
"And what I said wasn't wrong, your husband really did cheat on you for over thirty years. If I do the math, he was already cheating on you when you got married."
Wu Huilan shook her head: "You're spreading rumors. I'm going to tell you it's defamation."
Xiang Xiuhui suddenly felt less sad. She was now very eager to gossip. She had met her father-in-law before and could sense his coldness towards her mother-in-law and husband.
She used to think it was just his personality, but she never imagined that he liked someone else and had been cheating on her for so many years.
"Go and take a look in your study; you should be able to find some clues there."
Without thinking, Wu Huilan rushed out. On the sofa was Wang Zong, who was pretending to be dead. He glanced at his wife and child, and since they hadn't started fighting, it was fine.
Xiang Xiuhui was somewhat disappointed. Many times when she argued with her mother-in-law, she hoped that her husband would stand up for her, but he never did.
The master may be right; leaving this place temporarily is a good thing for her, and such a family environment may not be healthy for her children either.
Xiang Xiuhui went to her husband Wang Yongjie's study, a place he usually didn't allow her to enter.
Her husband is a university professor and a geologist. He is often away on business trips and rarely comes home.
Xiang Xiuhui held her phone, and the screen had already switched to Wu Huilan's side.
With trembling hands, Wu Huilan opened the drawer. Inside was a photo album and many letters.
In the past, when technology wasn't so advanced, they communicated through letters. Wu Huilan opened one and found it filled with Wang Yongjie's longing for another woman.
There were many such letters, but Wu Huilan never received a single one.
She opened the photo album, which was full of photos of her husband with another woman.
Inside was a happy family of four. The woman was well cared for by her husband, and their son and daughter looked more like a family than she did.
From a woman's perspective, I started to sympathize with her, but from the mother-in-law's perspective, I felt no sympathy at all.
That's not fair; she's already suffered enough.
[Am I the only one who noticed that her son gradually appeared in the group photo later on? Although I only caught a fleeting glimpse of him on the sofa earlier, I remember his face very clearly.]
Seeing Wu Huilan staring intently at a photograph, Xiang Xiuhui took the child and went over to look at it.
"Wang Zong?" She hadn't expected her husband to be on top.
There seemed to be a line of smaller characters next to it, which Xiang Xiuhui recognized as her father-in-law's handwriting.
"A family trip to commemorate the occasion on October 12th."
Wu Huilan never expected that they were a family: "They are a family, and the children I gave birth to are also from their family."
Xiang Xiuhui suddenly remembered: "Wasn't October 12th last year your birthday?"
She remembered it so clearly because Wu Huilan had given her countless troubles that day.
My husband was working overtime that day and couldn't come home, and my father-in-law was out on a business trip.
She didn't receive a single "Happy Birthday" from Wu Huilan, and she was even harassed by Wu Huilan while heavily pregnant. She remembers that day very clearly.
So her words now pierced Wu Huilan's heart once again.
"Wife, did you just call me?" Wang Zong was looking at his phone on the sofa when he vaguely heard his wife calling him.
When he entered the study and saw his mother and wife in front of his father's desk, he frowned and said, "Mom, Huihui, what are you doing in Dad's study? He doesn't like anyone entering his study. You two should come out right away."
Wu Huilan pointed to the photo album: "Wang Zong, on October 12th last year, tell me where you were?"
