Heavenly Blessed Baby: Fleeing Famine, Busy to Prosper!-Chapter 82: Don’t Tell Anyone

The more Yi Meng thought about it, the more she felt her analysis was correct.

But holding such a big secret all by herself, she wasn’t sure if she could keep it.

In her previous life, Yi Meng was just an ordinary person without much ambition, going to work and back each day, and using her salary to buy herself food, drinks, and necessities.

She had thought about buying a house, but it was just a passing thought.

With her meager salary, buying a house seemed impossible.

It was more practical to think about finding a man who already had a house to marry.

However, she didn’t even manage to meet a suitable man before she muddled through and time-traveled.

After arriving here, she met Qi Quanjin, and naturally, she married him.

Though life was a bit tough, Yi Meng never considered creating a big stir to become a leading lady.

She really didn’t have much ability; she truly lacked the skills of those omnipotent heroines in novels.

So she thought of herself as merely having a dream about her past life, and she has lived in this era for nearly nine years.

Now with the sudden arrival of a daughter from the heavens, Yi Meng was both delighted and anxious.

But the daughter had caused so much trouble in such a short time, and Yi Meng felt such events would not be rare in the future.

She might be able to cover up once or twice, but can she keep it up every time?

Yi Meng’s greatest strength was her self-awareness.

She knew she couldn’t do it alone, so she had to find a way to pick someone who could help her keep the secret.

But who should that person be?

Yi Meng was worried.

But her face, furrowed with worry, appeared to others as if she was unsatisfied with the recent series of events.

A wife who usually had a good relationship with Yi Meng came over and whispered, "Fourth sister-in-law, don’t be upset. The Liew family just isn’t upright, and now they’ve reaped their consequences. They can’t extort you over the bathing issue anymore."

"Mm."

That’s not what Yi Meng was worried about, but she nodded for the sake of cooperation, "I understand."

With concerns in her heart, coupled with seeing the life-or-death uncertain Liew Sanya, she started worrying whether a crime had been committed.

Yi Meng didn’t feel like helping anymore; she bid farewell to the young wife beside her and hurried back to her family.

The Liew family wanted to trap the Qi Family, so no one expected Yi Meng to help. Seeing her leave, they couldn’t help cursing the Liews for being unscrupulous.

Yi Meng returned to her family.

The men hadn’t returned yet; only her mother-in-law and several sisters-in-law were there.

"Mama."

Seeing her mother-in-law, Yi Meng suddenly felt relieved.

Her mother-in-law was sharp-witted, and even with so many people inside and outside the home, there were no petty disputes, which showed the old lady’s managerial ability.

So Yi Meng directly went to Mrs. Qi.

Ai Zhaodi was helping Mrs. Qi by patting her back smoothly.

The old lady was truly aggravated; her face looked ashen.

Yi Meng said to Ai Zhaodi, "Younger sister-in-law, you should take a break! I’ll accompany Mama."

"Well, alright!"

Ai Zhaodi actually didn’t want to crowd her mother-in-law at this moment.

Her mother-in-law’s expression was terrifying; since marrying into the Qi Family, Ai Zhaodi had never seen her mother-in-law so angry.

So Ai Zhaodi quickly left.

In the radius of nearly two meters around Mrs. Qi, there was no one else except Yi Meng.

Yi Meng looked around and, seeing no one was paying attention here, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Though Mrs. Qi was angry, she hadn’t intended for her daughters-in-law to suffer.

But seeing Yi Meng like this, Mrs. Qi couldn’t help but lose control of her temper.

"What are you doing? Stealing?"

"Mama..."

Yi Meng wasn’t angry and wrapped her arms around Mrs. Qi’s arm, gently shaking it, whispering, "I just want to have a private chat with you!"

"What chat?"

Mrs. Qi raised an eyebrow.

This fourth daughter-in-law of hers was so different from the others.

Not only was she unafraid of her mother-in-law, but she also frequently adopted this little girl posture to act coyly.

Before there was precious Qi Manman as her granddaughter, Mrs. Qi truly treated Yi Meng like a real daughter.

Now seeing her like this, her anger dissipated unconsciously, though she still kept a stern face.

Yi Meng sighed and quietly recounted the event of the three thunderbolts, finally asking, "Mama, do you think these could be related to our Manbao?"

"No relation at all!"

Mrs. Qi suddenly raised her voice, only realizing the mistake afterward, quickly lowered her tone, and glared at Yi Meng, "Don’t babble nonsense about this!"

Talk about anyone, but not their precious granddaughter, which was the old lady’s last line.

Yi Meng smiled wryly, "Mama, look at how you’re talking. I truly treat Manbao as my own daughter, wishing desperately I could give her my heart."

"Then what do you mean by that earlier?"

Mrs. Qi squinted at Yi Meng, feeling a pang of worry.

If it really was like the fourth daughter-in-law’s analysis, wouldn’t that mean the secret she and the old man agreed to keep hidden might crumble?

If others found out that Manbao was a daughter of the heavens — well, granddaughter — then, then...

Although Mrs. Qi didn’t understand the saying "The unseemly comes with dangers," she knew some secrets couldn’t be revealed. If revealed, her granddaughter might not fare well and could possibly be burned as a monster.

"Mama, I’m just thinking I can’t handle covering it up alone over and over. That’s why I’m considering finding someone to discuss together on how best to deal with this."

Yi Meng sighed, "Manbao is still just a four-year-old little girl. If all these things are pinned on her and outsiders find out, I, I’m afraid..."

Saying this, Yi Meng couldn’t continue.

Thinking of her beloved daughter being burned as a monster made her heart ache, and tears unconsciously fell.

Mrs. Qi understood her meaning immediately.

After thinking it over, Mrs. Qi said, "Don’t mention this to anyone for now, not even the fourth child."

Yi Meng wiped her tears, looking at her mother-in-law.

Mrs. Qi continued, "Later, I’ll talk to your father, and then we three will sit down and think it through properly to see how best to handle this."

Upon hearing this, Yi Meng knew her mother-in-law believed in her analysis.

She was happy but also a bit puzzled.

Wasn’t this acceptance way too smooth?

Seeing the calm manner, could it be the old lady, even the old man, had long suspected such a thing?

Confusion aside, Yi Meng’s heart settled down somewhat, and she truly felt relieved.

Thankfully, she was no longer carrying the secret burden alone.
