Hearing his wife’s words, Li Ze stood up abruptly.
At the hospital, Li Ze had considered the possibility that his wife was not delivering his child, so the adulterer would have paid a lot of bribe to the doctors to transfer the child. Therefore, he comprehended that his wife was admitted to have delivered the child of the adulterer.
How could Li Ze not be angry at it?
If Ding Jie didn’t escape at this moment, she would likely be beaten up!
It’s not shameful to be a cuckold, but what was disheartening was to believe that the child was his while his wife was delivering adulterer’s child.
So he clenched his fists, with veins in his hands springing up, and immediately walked towards Ding Jie.
Before he lay a hand on her, Ding Jie shouted while leaning against the door, “Do you know why you have no son? Because your son was already poisoned by your mother! ”
“What are you raving about!”
“I’m not raving. Give her a call” Tears drop from Ding Jie’s eyes.” I didn’t want to say it, but now I can’t hide it anymore. Every time I feel my heart ache about our son’s death, sometimes am even in tears. But I don’t want you two to live with this remorse. Therefore, I never dared to tell you. What about you? You even said I am cold-blooded!”
“You’re absolutely lying!”
“Alright, I have to tell you everything to deduce who is cold-blooded,” Ding Jie said, “Your mom is a very superstitious woman, so when Bodhisattva said I was delivering a daughter, she was especially disinterested. She decided to believe it without any reason. She had always wanted an abortion because of her feudal thought, or she wouldn’t have mentioned it when she made the call with aunt. After I was shocked by her words, I went back to my mother’s house to nourish my child. Your mother came to the hospital the morning I was in the hospital, and she brought me some medicines, which she told me could reduce pain during the operation. I didn’t want to drink at first, but I couldn’t reject her. So I drank it over. I hadn’t expected her to poison me no matter how much she hated our child.”
Ding Jie wiped away the tears and continued, “Our son was born the night after you left the hospital. What frightened the doctors and nurses was that our son’s life was fading, he was even on the verge of death. But I didn’t know why because the test the day before showed everything to be normal. The nurse ran out of the delivery room in order to arrange for rescue surgery. However, there were no one outside. Due to the delay, your son left the world less than fifteen minutes after being born.”
Hearing his wife’s words, Li Ze’s eyes opened wide. He didn’t believe her words.
After sitting on the ground like a puddle of mud, Ding Jie covered her face, crying.
Li Ze wants to call his mother to ensure it.
His wife continued as he was about to get the phone, “It was just then that a girl ran off after delivering a daughter, so the doctor advised me to raise the baby as my own daughter since my relatives didn’t know about it. Do you know why the doctor suggested it? She’s worried that we’ll force the hospital to compensate us. I refused to the idea at first. I wanted our son and not a daughter without blood relation. But I was shaken when the nurse brought her into the delivery room. The baby girl was crying in her arms, but suddenly calmed down when I took her. When the baby girl was gently holding my finger, I felt that the baby was a gift to me. Finally, I accepted it. I don’t know whether I am right, but your mother and you were absolutely wrong.”
Li Ze didn’t say anything but quickly picked up the phone on the sofa.
Ding Jie was holding her face while crying.
As she wept, her body shuddered like a tree in the wind.
Li Ze was unwilling to believe his wife’s words, he was calling his mother on the veranda.
After it was answered, Li Ze said, “Mom, I have to ask you something. You must answer me truthfully.”
“What’s the matter?”
Li Ze glanced at his wife crying. “Did you get the medicine for Xiao Jie that morning she got delivered?”
“Right, it’s good for delivering.”
“Are you sure?”
“Of course. Haven’t you seen that she delivered Weiwei that night?”
“Tell me the truth, is it for inducing abortion?”
“How could it be?” At the other end of the phone, Madame Li said, “Or how could she have delivered Weiwei that night?”
“Mom, I’m your son, I hope you can tell me the truth,” Li Ze said, “Anyway, Weiwei has been born successfully.”
“Aye!” Ms. Li sighed, “Ze, actually, it’s for inducing abortion. I got it from an old Chinese doctor and had her drink it. Bodhisattva told me that she had a daughter, so of course, I didn’t want her to give birth to a daughter. Sons could inherit our family, but daughters, on the contrary, could not. Thus I gave her the medicine. However, it did not work at all. She had actually managed to give birth to Weiwei without any problems. It’s all in the past anyway, so don’t worry about it. I am fond of Weiwei now. What you need to do now is to get Xiao Jie pregnant to deliver a son as soon as possible.”
Li Ze suddenly felt that he had been falling into the abyss.
With a plop, Li Ze knelt down on the floor in a daze.
Although it hurt his knees, it was his mother’s words which really made him suffer more. He felt as if his heart was seized. The suffocating pain forced him to cover his chest.
Staring at the floor in despair, Li Ze murmured, “Mom, you had poisoned your grandson.”
