Chapter 185 Who is your mother-in-law?
The old lady was dumbfounded at this moment, and it took her a long time to come back to her senses.
"You... stop yelling! Who is your mother-in-law?" She at least remembered that Xiao Chen was her niece! Where did this woman come from?
"Mother-in-law! It's fine if you don't acknowledge me, but this child is your grandson! Are you going to watch us jump into the river? If I hadn't been desperate, I wouldn't have come to you."
The woman started to sob as she spoke, and at that moment the child also started to cry, and the whole yard was suddenly filled with crying.
"What did my eldest brother do to you? You said your child is the eldest brother, so I believe it? Then the eldest brother should come and tell me in person, right?"
The old lady was not stupid at this moment. The eldest brother had never mentioned this to her, so she must not admit it! Otherwise, how could she have the face to go back to her parents' home in the future? Wouldn't her eldest brother and sister-in-law hate her to death?
"Mother-in-law, please look at the child! Can you bear to let him wander outside? He is the flesh and blood of the Jiang family!" The woman's tears fell like beads from a broken string. She was fair and had a pretty face. In addition, she had a charm that attracted many men present to stare at her.
They were all farmers in the countryside. How could they have ever seen a woman like this?
"Tsk tsk! The head of the Jiang family is so lucky, this woman is so beautiful!" Many people in the crowd were whispering, and many men had their eyes glued to her.
The old lady frowned when she saw the woman's appearance. She looked like a fox, and it was obvious that she was not a law-abiding person.
This woman must be at least 25 or 26 years old, right? The child is still so young, could she have been married before? Wouldn't that be quite annoying? Her eldest son will be an official in the future, so taking a concubine is not a big deal, but the concubine must be young and good-looking!
Moreover, this woman has a kind of coquettish aura about her, which makes me afraid that she is not from a legitimate background!
In fact, the old lady was also worried at this moment. She suddenly felt that the woman might not be lying. She thought from the bottom of her heart that the eldest brother might really do such a thing.
"Mother! What should we do? How about sending someone to the town to call my sister-in-law back? After all, she is the legal wife. Even if my brother wants to take a concubine, doesn't my sister-in-law have to know?"
Jiang Yueniang had been gloating over misfortune, thinking back to when she said her husband was going to take a concubine, what was her sister-in-law's attitude? She saw the disdain and gloating in her sister-in-law's eyes, and she also said some sarcastic words.
Now, this kind of thing has happened to her sister-in-law, and she can't wait to see her sister-in-law collapse and be shocked.
"No!" The old lady refused firmly, "We don't know if this is true yet. We have to wait until the eldest son comes back. I can't tell your eldest sister-in-law. She is jealous. You know that."
Jiang Yue Niang curled her lips, "You'll know sooner or later. I think it's my eldest brother's child. He has lived in the town for so many years, it's not impossible for him to meet someone he likes! But this girl is a little old, isn't she? My eldest brother must find a young girl when he takes a concubine! He has no taste."
As she spoke, she looked the woman up and down. She did have a slim figure, but she just felt like she wasn't from a legitimate background.
"Fugui family, I saw the mother and child crying for such a long time, you should at least bring them in and give them some water to drink. This child must be yours, otherwise they wouldn't have come looking for you, just acknowledge him!"
"That's right! Look at how good he looks. Your boss is really capable!"
"You have to admit it even if you don't want to! I'm just afraid your boss will come back and slap you in the face!"
Everyone was talking and laughing, their faces full of gossip and excitement. The Jiang family's affairs were more exciting than a big opera. If a troupe of opera came to the village at this time, they would not hesitate to go and watch.
"You are talking nonsense. Go away! Get out of here. How does my family's affairs affect your family?" The old lady has always been arrogant and unreasonable, and it is common for her to speak wildly.
"Mr. Fugui, you are wrong, aren't you? We are all from the same village, and we all want to see if we can help. Besides, this yard outside is also your land, right? You are always throwing tantrums!
If you are so aggressive, you should take care of your son. Why don't you harm a decent girl who has already given birth to a child? How can you refuse her? She is a scholar! Bah!"
An old lady supported herself with her right hand and pointed her finger at Chen with her left hand, scolding her. Chen would throw a tantrum, but she wouldn't? Who was afraid of who?
"Is it your turn to butt in on my family's affairs? You are a bunch of peasants. When my eldest son becomes an official, all of you should be arrested. Besides, my son has a few mistresses because he is capable. Do you have the same ability?"
Old Madam Chen didn't really feel ashamed, but she was naturally not happy about having two more mouths to feed. Besides, her parents' family was indeed a problem.
"Tsk~ I'm just taking the exam! You're already talking about becoming an official. You're so arrogant. I don't know if I can pass the exam or not."
Everyone rolled their eyes. This old lady is definitely attracting hatred!
"That's right! We are peasants, aren't they? They just read a few more days of books, but they are so arrogant that they don't know what to do."
"How dare you! You crazy woman, you actually come to my doorstep to make a scene?" A loud shout was heard, and everyone turned around to see the voice, and found that Xiao Chen with a livid face was standing outside the door.
Everyone immediately made way in unison, and their hearts became more and more excited. Little Chen was here, and now the show was getting more and more exciting.
"Ouch! Fight! Fight!"
"You really enjoy watching the fun, but this is really exciting. I don't even want to poop anymore. I have to hold it in."
The crowd was also excited, and more and more people came to watch the fun. Some people who couldn't squeeze to the front even pulled the onlookers to ask what happened. Everyone was very enthusiastic.
When the woman saw Xiao Chen appear, she couldn't help but look away, feeling guilty.
But when she heard the child crying, her eyes immediately became determined.
"Madam! My name is Zhou, nice to meet you!" She knew that Jiang Haiqing and his wife had lived in a wealthy family before and had learned a lot of rules from there. Jiang Haiqing used to show off the rules and luxury of the wealthy family in front of her, and her words were full of yearning.
"What wife? You're crazy, everyone in this town knows that you've gone mad because your husband died. You carried your child around to look for his father, but I didn't expect you to find my door this time. I advise you to go back, and I can forgive you for what happened."
Xiao Chen's heart was burning with anger, and the flames of anger were about to rush to her head. But on the way here, she forced herself to calm down. After finding out about the woman's background, she had some idea in her mind, and she thought of a good idea, which was to deny it even if beaten to death.
"Ah? So this woman is a lunatic? What a pity, she looks quite normal!" Some people heard this and believed it to be true.
