Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Yun Xi, you vicious woman, give me back a healthy child! It’s all your fault that my child got sick!” Yun Lian started to throw a tantrum as soon as she returned to the Zhou family’s old residence.
Yun Xi heard the doorbell ring and thought that Zhou Lin had returned, so she ran to the door without waiting for the guard to open the door.
However, the person who had returned was not Zhou Lin, but Yun Lian and the others who had brought their child to see a doctor today.
When Yun Lian saw Yun Xi, she push Yun Xi to the ground. Her eyes were filled with anger.
Yun Xi was caught off guard by the fall, and waves of pain came from her buttocks. Yun Xi supported herself on the floor beside her and stood up. She did not give in and started to curse.
“Are you crazy? What does your child’s illness have to do with me?”
As Yun Xi said these words, she lifted a leg and kicked Yun Lian out of the house.
The midwife wanted to go forward and help her, but she was holding the child in her arms. She did not know whether to put the child down or hold the child.
“Grandfather, please come out and make the decision for me!”
Yun Lian felt that her tailbone was about to be broken by someone. However, this was not an important matter. The most important thing for her now was to shift all the responsibility for the child’s illness onto Yun Xi.
Yun Lian thought about it all the way home and finally decided to let Yun Xi be the scapegoat for this matter.
This way, not only could she choose a clean path from this matter, but she could also make things difficult for Yun Xi!
Yun Lian endured the pain from her buttocks and supported herself on the cement floor outside the house to stand up. She ran into the house and shouted for Old Master Zhou to make the decision for her.
“Grandfather, the doctor has examined the child. There’s nothing wrong with the child. It’s just that the child kept drooling because someone pinched his face hard.”
Yun Lian did not mention that the child was mentally handicapped. She avoided the main point and first mentioned the reason why the child kept drooling.
“We usually look after the child as if he is a precious treasure. The child How could we possibly pinch the child’s face so hard?”
“Furthermore, the child did not salivate so much in the past. It was only when he arrived at the old residence that the child started salivating so much. It must be because my sister pinched the child’s face so hard when she was teasing my child previously. This caused the child to salivate so much!”
“Don’t spout nonsense. I’ve never pinched the child’s face since he was born!” Yun Xi had never seen such a shameless person.
“I know that my sister has always hated me, so she vented all her anger on a child who can’t speak. We didn’t have any evidence, so we pinched him. Now that the child has been drooling, it’s fine if our family acknowledges this matter!”
Yun Lian took out her set of acting skills again. They no longer blamed Yun Xi for the child’s drooling. However, it confirmed that Yun Xi was the culprit that caused the child to drool non-stop.
“Alright, stop arguing. Isn’t it normal for children to drool? When you went for the examination this time, did you hear the Doctor say why the child still can’t speak?”
Old Master Zhou stopped the argument between the two and started to ask about what he was most concerned about.
For Old Master Zhou, it was not a big deal for a child to drool. However, if the child did not speak and became mute, that would be troublesome!
“Grandpa, you don’t have to worry about this. The doctor said that the child is not mute, it’s just that the child develops at a different time. Some children develop faster, while others develop slower! Our Xingxing is a child that develops slower. After a while, he will be able to speak!”
Yun Lian still chose to hide the fact that the child had a mental retardation, using the slow development as an excuse to prevaricate. Perhaps after taking the medicine prescribed by the doctor, the child would be able to speak!
For Yun Lian, it was best to keep this a secret for now!
However, this matter might be exposed sooner or later. Yun Lian had to start making plans for her own future. She had to take some of the Zhou family’s money with her!
