The Evil Mother-in-law: Torment Children, Work Hard, Be Rich!-Chapter 321: Good News

Man Er clung to Chen Sufen’s coat corner, sobbing.

This made everyone feel even more sympathetic.

Tong Huaqiong stood under the corridor and said, "Sufen, now that the child is already home, there’s no point in making a fuss. Think carefully if you want to stay with the Gu Family or go back to your own family. If you decide to go back, I’ll make the decision to let you and Dashi separate."

Chen Sufen looked pale, and upon hearing about the separation, she seemed utterly confused about what to do.

The crowd took the opportunity to persuade her: "Separate? What separation? How will you live on your own after separating?"

Some young wives even whispered to her, "Sufen, look, your mother-in-law doesn’t want you to leave. Seize this chance to make some demands to your mother-in-law. You have to think about Man Er."

Chen Sufen started crying and held Aunt Qin’s hand, saying, "Who can I trust? Da Han is so honest, yet he..."

As she cried, her eyes rolled back, and she fainted.

Gu Taohua stood beside Tong Huaqiong, tiptoed to take a look, and whispered to Tong Huaqiong, "Mother, is it necessary for sister-in-law to act so hard? She fell stiff like a board. If Aunt Qin hadn’t caught her, she would’ve cracked her head."

Tong Huaqiong felt something wasn’t right.

Chen Sufen wouldn’t be foolish enough to joke with her own life.

"Sufen, Sufen, what’s wrong?"

"Aunt Tong, Sufen fainted from anger."

Cries of surprise arose from the crowd.

Chen Sufen had really fainted.

Gu Dahuan rushed forward first, scooping Chen Sufen up in his arms and taking her back to the room.

"Quick, hurry and get the doctor." Tong Huaqiong said anxiously.

Gu Jingzhe sprinted off to fetch the village doctor.

Chen Sufen was laid on the bed, her eyes tightly closed, face pale.

She didn’t look like she was pretending at all.

Suddenly, Tong Huaqiong remembered that on the way back from the city, they encountered Su Chengmin covered in blood. Usually, Chen Sufen would rush to help wipe the blood.

But this time, seeing the blood made her visibly nauseous. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

Tong Huaqiong had a bold thought, could Chen Sufen be pregnant?

Gu Dahuan, terrified, tightly held Chen Sufen’s hand. This action in the eyes of Aunt Qin and others reflected Gu Dahuan’s good conscience, he was considered a good man who had children only for the sake of descendants.

Aunt Qin initially wanted to complain that Gu Dahuan angered Chen Sufen to faint, but seeing the genuine worry on Gu Dahuan’s face, she held back.

Chen Sufen should forgive him, after all, living a good life as a couple is better than anything.

Man Er’s big eyes welled up with tears, genuinely scared this time.

Originally supposed to be acting with her mother, why did her mother faint from acting?

Man Er clutched Tong Huaqiong’s hand and said, "I’m scared."

Tong Huaqiong stroked Man Er’s head gently and said, "Don’t be scared."

Xiao Long stood at the door, looking inside, immediately drawing everyone’s attention.

Who would believe this child was a son? This is a lively, pretty little girl.

"The doctor’s here."

The village doctor, carrying a medicine box, came to Chen Sufen’s side, checked her pulse, and smiled to congratulate Tong Huaqiong.

"Congratulations, Aunt Tong, Dashi’s wife is pregnant."

Tong Huaqiong guessed right, Chen Sufen was indeed pregnant.

"Sufen is pregnant?" Gu Dahuan was beyond surprised and delighted.

Tong Huaqiong asked the doctor, "How is my daughter-in-law’s health?"

The doctor said, "Other than being a bit weak, everything is fine. However, pregnant women tend to overthink, it’s better not to let them be troubled."

On the way, the doctor had heard the gossip about the Gu Family, so his advice had a hidden meaning.

Tong Huaqiong nodded.

Chen Sufen had put on a big show with Xiao Long to clear the Gu Family of the suspicion of harboring rebellious remnants.

She really didn’t expect this usually honest daughter-in-law to be so effective in this event, needing no direction to directly start filming.

Crying, causing a scene, fiercely pulling Gu Dahuan...like shooting a martial arts film. Upon suddenly hearing she was pregnant, Tong Huaqiong was worried that the morning performance might lead to Chen Sufen losing the baby.

In those times, a woman getting pregnant was like walking into the gates of hell; she didn’t want anything bad to happen to Chen Sufen.

"So Sufen is pregnant!"

"Dahuan, be nicer to Sufen, childbirth is not easy for a woman."

"You know, since Sufen gave birth to Man Er, there’s been no news for years. Now she’s pregnant, I think it’s all thanks to the kids Dahuan had outside. Looking at it this way, it actually counts as a happy occasion."

...

A group of women surrounded Chen Sufen, talking non-stop.

Village chief Liu Tieshan stood at the door, coughed twice, and shouted, "Don’t crowd in the house, Dashi’s wife needs to rest now, hurry and go back to your own homes."

At this moment, Tong Huaqiong also stepped out and said, "Everyone, please disperse, my daughter-in-law needs rest."

Someone muttered, "Knowing your daughter-in-law is pregnant, still bring in another child to upset her."

Tong Huaqiong remained unmoved by this complaint, calmly ushering everyone out.

Xiao Long still stood at the door, peeking inside, with a concerned look for Chen Sufen on his face.

Xiao Long was so strikingly pretty, earlier everyone only focused on taking care of Chen Sufen inside the house, now that Chen Sufen was resting, naturally, all eyes turned to the striking Xiao Long.

Someone muttered to themselves, this child doesn’t resemble Dahuan at all.

Aunt Qin couldn’t help but touch Xiao Long’s head, but Xiao Long quickly dodged.

Aunt Qin said, "Such a pitiful child."

With such delicate hands, clearly, he hasn’t suffered.

How could this child be Dahuan’s child?

Meanwhile, the village chief was also carefully observing Xiao Long.

From beginning to end, the village chief never believed this was Gu Dahuan’s illegitimate child.

But now the Gu Family claimed he was Gu Dahuan’s illegitimate child, so he was.

Not only did the Gu Family say so, but also County Magistrate Liu before he left.

Everyone gathered around Xiao Long, scrutinizing.

"This child is too pretty."

"Anyway, this child doesn’t have a mother anymore, I say Sufen might as well just accept him. Since he was born outside, he can’t surpass Sufen’s child anyway."

"That’s easier said than done, but Sufen has to get over that mental block. If Dahuan was any less kind to Sufen on a normal day, Sufen would accept it; but Dahuan has always been so good to Sufen, now finding out this child means Dahuan’s kindness to her was false, who wouldn’t be hurt?"

"Hurt or not, she’ll have to endure it, what else can be done? Separate? Don’t be ridiculous, Sufen’s family doesn’t care about her wellbeing. If she separates, her own family will be the first to kick her out."

The crowd opened a new round of discussions about Xiao Long.

Chen Sufen suddenly became the most pitiful woman in Qinghe Bay, standing firmly on the moral high ground, becoming the object of everyone’s sympathy.

Tong Huaqiong looked at Xiao Long with mixed emotions.

Now, whether or not Xiao Long was Gu Dahuan’s illegitimate child, he was.

The key was, this matter couldn’t be clarified either.

Gu Dahuan sat in the room, expressionless; henceforth, Gu Dahuan’s image would change from honest and steady to heartless and hypocritical.

Gu Dahuan’s sacrifice must be said to be somewhat significant.

Xiao Long walked into the room under the curious and scrutinizing gazes of the villagers, sitting beside Chen Sufen with Man Er.

Tong Huaqiong thought this Xiao Long, not for nothing, experienced significant moments, able to devise a strategy in an instant when the soldiers came in.

He was only slightly older than Yaozu, who still only knew how to suck his thumb.

Yet he already managed to direct a scene about an illegitimate child.
