Chapter 78: I’m Going to Be a Dad

Hu Yao remained silent under his barrage of accusations.

It was he who had warned her to “be sensible” earlier, and after last night’s incident, it seemed like she was in the wrong, and she still had to appease him!

He was so unreasonable!

Hu Yao was depressed, she put down what she was holding and got up.

“Where are you going?”

“I want to drink some water.” Now she was back to having to report everything to him.

“Sit down, wait!” He got up.

The commotion at the Li family’s house subsided after a while. Zhang Xiaosu’s child was aborted by Li Zhuangzhi, and Li Zhuangzhi didn’t fare any better. Zhang Xiaosu smashed his head and tore at him, leaving him covered in blood, almost taking his life.

The couple’s affair became the talk of the town in Taowan Village for a long time.

Li Zhuangzhi was willing to abort Zhang Xiaosu’s child, which meant he knew the child wasn’t his. For a while, everyone was in an uproar, confirming that Li Zhuangzhi was truly incapable of having children.

After the incident, Li Zhuangzhi kicked Zhang Xiaosu out of the house, half-dead as she was, and cursed at her, calling her a slut and a whore, saying he didn’t want her anymore.

Zhang Xiaosu didn’t bother with him, she cursed him back and left without looking back.

That night, Li Zhuangzhi realized that Zhang Xiaosu had taken all his remaining money. He went to find her, but she had already run off with her lover.

However, her lover was only after her money, and he abandoned her halfway. She was almost sold to a red-light district by human traffickers, but she was lucky enough to be rescued and became more settled afterwards.

Li Zhuangzhi, who had lost his money, was furious and fell ill in bed. He shamelessly approached Jiang Han again, trying to get money from him.

Jiang Han had been a sucker once, he had money, but he wasn’t stupid. He simply ignored him.

Disappointed and desperate, Li Zhuangzhi finally shamelessly went to the Liu family, demanding the money that Lin Zhaodi and Xiaoya’s father had paid them back then.

He argued that Lin Zhaodi had been his wife after all, and her child might not have been his. Although Lin Zhaodi had harmed Li Zhen’s child, the Liu family had taken the money, and Li Zhen had still killed Lin Zhaodi’s child, driving her crazy. That money should be returned.

The Liu family would never return the money. Not only was Li Zhuangzhi’s reason absurd, but Lin Zhaodi was crazy and Xiaoya’s father was dead. The money was theirs!

They argued for a while over this considerable sum of money.

Later, they even went to Jiang Han. Jiang Han was already annoyed by Hu Yao, and they came to him, so he simply took the money they had been fighting over and casually gave it to Hu Yao as pocket money.

They fought and fought, and in the end, they got nothing, and they even made a series of ridiculous jokes that became the talk of the town.

Hu Yao had heard about this money from the villagers. Most of it was left by Xiaoya’s deceased mother. After much deliberation, Hu Yao told Jiang Han and took most of the money to Xiaoya’s uncle for safekeeping.

After Xiaoya learned about her father’s death, she was heartbroken and couldn’t get over it. No matter what her father was like, he was her closest relative, and his death was a big blow to her at such a young age.

Fortunately, she still had a loving uncle and a generous aunt, and she had someone to rely on.

Jiang Han didn’t care how she spent the money. He gave it to her so she could spend it, she could spend it however she wanted, as long as she didn’t stand in front of him and pull a long face for all sorts of trivial reasons.

Lin Zhaodi is still in the insane asylum in the suburbs of the town. Hu Yao has mixed feelings about her. Her current situation is partly her own fault, but it was the environment of being neglected and ostracized for over twenty years that truly drove her crazy.

Back then, when she was in front of her, she had a fierce and bloodthirsty look, smashing Li Zhuangzhi unconscious, and then cutting his tendons. Her suppressed madness made her feel strange and terrifying. Not to mention that she later appeared in front of her in that state at night.

She had been the object of constant criticism and oppression for so long, she had been suppressed for too long. She had her own selfishness, and after she “won”, it was not difficult to understand that she turned around and treated those who had treated her badly in the same way.

However, Hu Yao still couldn’t accept it. She didn’t want to continue to fuel her arrogance, and she didn’t have much ability herself, she was also relying on others.

Who knew she would end up like this.

That night, she felt that she was terrifying and pitiful.

Hu Yao hesitated again and again, preparing herself mentally for a while, and went to the insane asylum without telling Jiang Han.

Lin Zhaodi was crazy and had killed someone, so her supervision was stricter than others.

Hu Yao only saw her moving from a distance.

Now she looked normal, her emotions were calm, the only strange thing was that she was gently stroking her belly and talking to the air.

Hu Yao didn’t stay long, Jiang Xiaochao was still waiting for her at the wine shop. She left some money for the caretaker of Lin Zhaodi, took one last look at her from a distance, and turned to leave.

“Mom, are we going to the market today?”

Jiang Xiaochao asked Hu Yao with a dejected look, his little face full of worry.

Recently, he didn’t play with Du Ximei much, he was always worried, and he often asked Hu Yao if she was going to town. Every time he went, he secretly brought an egg, thinking that no one knew.

“What are you running around for all day! Don’t drag your mom around with you! Your cow isn’t enough for you to play with!”

Before Hu Yao spoke, Jiang Han spoke first. Hu Yao was only three months pregnant, and although the town was close, it was crowded and chaotic, and if something happened, he would be annoyed!

Jiang Xiaochao pouted, hesitated for a moment, and finally confessed, his small voice full of confusion and helplessness.

“Dad, I’m going to be a dad!”

“…”

Hu Yao was stunned, she almost thought she heard wrong, Jiang Han almost choked on his water.

“What?” Jiang Han looked at him with a look of disbelief.

Jiang Xiaochao twisted his small hands, at the age of three, he had already borne a heavy burden of worry.

He softly and dejectedly told them that the little hooligan who kissed him was actually a girl, that they kissed on the mouth, and that they had a child.

“Are you even human, Jiang Fuchao? You even hit a little girl.” Jiang Han laughed, not understanding his current worries at all, and he didn’t forget that he had come back to tell him that he had beaten the person up.

“I didn’t know! Why did she kiss me!” Jiang Xiaochao’s mouth was pouted, feeling wronged and unjustly treated.

He thought she was a boy, but she thought he was a girl.

Thinking that boys and girls kissing on the mouth would have children, the two little kids were both panicked.

Although Jiang Xiaochao was surprised and shocked at the sudden news of becoming a father, he still took on the responsibility of a man, secretly saving his eggs to give to the girl, and for a while, he didn’t dare to tell the adults.
