Chapter 279: Probably Didn’t Get Their Fair Share of Karma
by 六六小可爱Chapter 279: Probably Didn’t Get Their Fair Share of Karma
Cai Xiaole tutted in disapproval, "I never expected that you, Qian Wei, would be so open-minded."
Everyone was led astray by Jiang Yu's words, imagining themselves in the situation. They began to feel that Cai Xiaole's mother's actions were understandable.
If their own husbands did such a thing, they’d be ready to kill him.
Qian Wei gritted her teeth, "I wasn’t blaming Cai Xiaole’s mom, I was talking about Cai Xiaole! That’s her own father, shouldn’t she be filial?"
"If your father did such a thing, would you choose to forgive him? Have you ever thought about how your mother would feel? Cheated on by her husband, and her dearest daughter siding with the betrayer, how heartbroken she must be."
Qian Wei felt a pang of guilt when Jiang Yu asked her this.
Could it be that she was really wrong?
Jiang Yu’s gaze swept across the faces of those present, "You all think Cai Xiaole has a cold heart, but have you ever considered that her father’s betrayal wasn’t just towards his wife, but the entire family! From the moment he did such a thing, he had already cast aside his wife and daughter. Before you demand others to be forgiving, have you seen how ugly you all look when you judge others so harshly?"
The people around Qian Wei distanced themselves from her.
Qian Wei’s eyes reddened with anger, calling them spineless.
Tong Heng, seeing he had lost everyone’s support, grew anxious.
"Xiaole, I know my uncle wronged you, but I’ll always be on your and my aunt’s side."
Qian Wei immediately switched gears, "That’s right, Cai Xiaole, it’s your father who wronged you, what does it have to do with your brother? Your brother has been so good to you, yet you threw him out of the house, you’re heartless!"
Cai Xiaole scoffed, "He’s been good to me? Then tell me, what good has he done for me?"
Qian Wei was stumped again, "That’s your business as siblings, how would I know?"
Jiang Yu glanced at her, "Exactly, you don’t know, so why are you meddling?"
Qian Wei was caught in the loop again, growing angrier by the second. Doesn’t it sound off to you?
"I can meddle if I feel like it, what’s it to you anyway?"
Cai Xiaole took a step forward, locking eyes with Qian Wei.
"Then let me tell you exactly what he’s done for me! My grandmother dislikes me for being an only child and wanted my father to take Tong Heng as his son to inherit my mother’s family’s house and job. Qian Wei, you’re also an only child, if your cousin came out and tried to take your family’s things, would you just hand them over?"
Qian Wei was speechless, staring at Tong Heng in shock.
Did that really happen? Tong Heng never mentioned it before.
Tong Heng, looking ashamed, averted his gaze, his face turning red.
"That was my grandmother’s idea, I didn’t really think about it."
"You say you didn’t think about it, but did you ever refuse? When my grandmother bought meat, she had to hide it from me. She gave all the meat to you, and I couldn’t have a single bite, did you ever refuse? You even secretly ate all the meat without leaving a single piece for me!"
Tong Heng, the beneficiary, now claims to be innocent, how laughable.
Jiang Yu held Cai Xiaole’s hand and gently squeezed it.
"Let’s not talk about it, your grandmother is here."
Cai Xiaole followed her gaze and indeed saw the old lady hurrying over in a panic.
"Tong Heng! Tong Heng! Hurry home, your father is about to beat your second uncle to death!"
Tong Heng's face turned pale. "Grandma, what are you talking about! Why would my father beat my second uncle?"
The old lady grabbed him. "Your father heard from somewhere that you're not his son, but that your second uncle and your mother had you!"
Tong Heng's face turned ashen. He staggered a few steps and, without bothering to deal with Cai Xiaole anymore, ran off.
Jiang Yu didn't expect to witness such a big scandal in just a short while.
But Cai Xiaole's expression turned grim.
If Tong Heng was Tong Qilin's son, it meant that he had gotten someone else pregnant before marrying Cai Huifang. No wonder he was willing to adopt.
She closed her eyes, her breathing gradually becoming more rapid.
Tong Qilin is completely shameless!
"Xiaole, don't overthink it, let's go home first," Jiang Yu advised.
Cai Xiaole wiped her eyes hard. "I'm fine."
As she and Jiang Yu left, the others dispersed one by one.
When Jiang Yu got home, Xu Lihua was loudly announcing that Zhang Jiahua had gotten a job.
This was indeed rare.
"Aunt Xu, hasn't it been announced that your son joined the security department a few days ago? Why are you only saying it now?" Jiang Yu asked.
Xu Lihua glanced at her. "You don't understand. I was just playing it safe."
Last time, the job at the bus station wasn't confirmed, and she had already spread the word, making a fool of herself.
Xu Lihua had learned her lesson. She specifically waited until Zhang Jiahua had started working, ensuring the job was secure, before showing off.
Lin Hongxia laughed. "Granny Xu, you are indeed blessed. Now you have two incomes at home; life will surely get better and better."
Xu Lihua still didn't like Lin Rui, but the thought of her having a grandson made her happy.
"Yes, Jiahua's job is settled. Now I can rest easy. I went to ask Jiang Yu for help before, but she flat out refused. Luckily, my son is capable; he landed the job on his own."
Xu Lihua thought about how she had personally gone to ask Jiang Yu, who had flat out refused, and she still felt somewhat upset. But Zhang Jiahua made her proud, and now she looked at Jiang Yu with undisguised triumph.
As soon as she finished speaking, Lin Rui and Zhang Jiahua returned to the compound, and they brought good news to Xu Lihua.
Lin Rui turned out to be pregnant!
The doctor said it's still early; we were going to wait a couple of months, but Lin Rui wanted to give you some early joy.
Everyone congratulated her, saying that Xu Lihua's family now had double the joy.
Xu Lihua was so happy she could faint. She was unusually generous to Lin Rui, giving money and meat coupons to Zhang Jiahua.
"Go buy a pound of meat; your wife is still in the early stages of her pregnancy. She needs to be well nourished!"
Zhang Jiahua smiled. "Mom, I've already brought the meat back. You can cook it at noon."
"Good! Good!"
Jiang Li's eyes spun around twice, "So, there are three pregnant women in our compound now!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Hongxia's face suddenly stiffened.
She was fully aware that Fu Xiangyang and Jiang Ting had been trying constantly.
She used to think her son wasn't capable, and no matter how much they tried, Jiang Ting couldn't get pregnant.
Now things are different; she believes Fu Xiangyang's health has definitely recovered, and having a child is just a matter of time.
The question now is whether Jiang Ting is capable of getting pregnant soon.
Speaking of pregnancy, everyone couldn't help but turn their gaze to Jiang Yu.
Among the new brides in the compound, only Jiang Yu and Jiang Ting are not pregnant yet.
"Jiang Yu, you should hurry up. Take advantage of your youth and good health to have a child," Mrs. Sun chimed in.
Jiang Yu smiled and said, "Mrs. Sun, I'm not in a rush."
Jiang Ting sneered, "Are you really not in a hurry, or can't you get pregnant? You fell into the water last winter; maybe there really are health issues. Don't avoid seeing a doctor at your age; early detection means early treatment."
Jiang Yu replied indifferently, "I see you've been drinking folk remedies for quite a while, even urine. Are you cured? You're still not pregnant; maybe you haven't drunk enough urine. Go ask Hu Zi and Tong Yuan for some and drink it three times a day."
