Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“You’re really stubborn!” Chen Lian was exasperated. “Even if that Zuo Huo treats my eldest grandson like an ancestor, he’s still our Yu family’s flesh and blood! How can he call another man father?”
Chen Lian was so angry that she was about to vomit blood. She looked over from afar and saw two farmers working behind her. The two of them carried hoes and seemed to be chatting about family matters.
Originally, it wasn’t a big deal, but Chen Lian stubbornly thought that these two farmers were gossiping about her. She was so angry that she placed her hands on her hips and said to He Xi, “Our Yu family’s reputation has been completely ruined by you, you ignorant thing!”
She rolled her eyes in anger. When she thought of Baby Xuan’s conflicted expression when he saw her, Chen Lian’s heart skipped a beat.
This child was so against the Yu family now. Song Yao must have instigated it!
Thinking of this, Chen Lian was even more furious!
She had already told Yu Yong that Song Yao could get a divorce, but the child had to stay. However, Yu Yong had to listen to Song Yao no matter what!
Now, even his only son was calling another man ‘Dad’!
Chen Lian was very worried.
No! She had to find an opportunity to snatch her grandson back!
Otherwise, if this child continued to live with Song Yao, he might not remember who his biological father was when he grew up!
She asked He Xi angrily, “Let me ask you, when is Yong coming back?”
Ever since Pang Jiao lost her child, Yu Yong had gone out to find an electronics factory to work. Every day, he woke up early and worked late to earn money. Chen Lian had not seen him for a few days.
He Xi thought for a long time before saying, “Yong is working the night shift today. He’ll be back tomorrow morning at the earliest.”
Chen Lian frowned. “Then when Yong comes back tomorrow, I’ll tell him about Yu Xuan. This time, no matter what, I have to bring my eldest grandson over!”
Song Yao coaxed Baby Xuan for a long time until he fell asleep. Only then did Song Yao follow Gu Li out of the house.
Gu Li still had lingering fears when she thought of Chen Lian snatching the child just now.
She sighed and said to Song Yao, “Do you think Yu Yongs mother wants to snatch the child from us?”
Song Yao opened the clothes that He Xi had brought over and realized that Baby Xuan could not wear them at all. Moreover, the style of the clothes looked very old. It was obvious that they were old clothes that He Xi’s youngest son had grown out of.
She threw the clothes aside and said to Gu Li, “Snatch the child? That depends on whether they have the ability.”
“But what if Yu Yong’s family fights you head-on?”
Gu Li began to worry. “We’ve raised this child for more than a year. If he’s sent back, he might be provided with good food and drinks a few days ago. What will happen after a long time? Will Yu Yong take care of the child? With a stepfather, there will be a stepmother!”
Hearing Gu Li’s words, Song Yao recalled Baby Xuan’s tragic experience in her dream.
Song Yao couldn’t help but tear up. She clenched her fists and pretended to be calm. “Mom, don’t worry. No matter what, I won’t let them take the child away!”
“Moreover, when we divorced, we made it very clear that Baby Xuan is mine to raise. If Yu Yong really wants a child, then let him sue. I want to see who the court is speaking up for!”
Although Song Yao said it beautifully, her heart was already in a mess.
If Yu Yong wanted to bring Baby Xuan back no matter what, then even if she had to risk her life, she would keep Baby Xuan by her side!
“Sister! Good news! The big boss has taken a fancy to the river at the back of our mountain! Now, the villagers are waiting to split the money!”
A sudden and happy voice came from downstairs. Song Xiao carried the carp upstairs and was stunned when he saw Song Yao and Gu Li sitting on the stairs unhappily. “What’s wrong?”
“I’m fine.” Song Yao wiped her tears and asked Song Xiao, ‘But what did you say just now? The big boss took a fancy to the stream at the back of our mountain?
“That’s right!” Song Xiao couldn’t hide the joy on his face. “Isn’t there a stream in our village? The fish by the stream can only be caught by braised meat bait! This matter was discovered by the big boss trom the south. He tound a tew protessjonal torejgners to do a Checkup and said that those tiSh are all human-like koi fish! As long as you make a wish to the stream, everything will come true!”
Gu Li smiled. “Isn’t that more effective than the Guanyin Temple?”
Song Xiao scratched his head. “That’s what the big boss said too! He even said that he wanted to book the entire stream and the back mountain.. He has already gone to the village council to look for the village chief, but the village chief said that the back mountain and the stream are everyone’s common wealth, so everyone should have a share of the money for the back mountain! Now, the villagers are all rushing to the village council, waiting to split the money!”
