In Luo Yuzhu’s heart, not only could the child not be kept, but it also had to be aborted, so she was determined to terminate the pregnancy in Xiaofeng’s belly today, a clump of flesh that had yet to take form.
Only in this way could her status in the Lin Family be even more secure.
Hearing Luo Yuzhu’s words, Su Xiaofeng paid them no mind, “You might as well not bother with this, after all, you’ve never meddled in my affairs before.”
“I’m doing this for your own good,” Luo Yuzhu took a deep breath, “You have no idea how tough it can be for an unmarried mother, sometimes it can be life-threatening.”
Thinking of something, Luo Yuzhu offered a compensatory smile, “Of course, if you insist on keeping it, Mom will certainly help you.”
Luo Yuzhu took Su Xiaofeng to a two-story cottage.
In this era, only those who were genuinely wealthy could afford to live in an independent western-style house, and the Lin Family seemed to be quite affluent indeed.
“This is the Lin residence.
You’ve been here before, so you should be familiar with it,” she said.
Lin Jing and the elder Mrs.
Lin happened to return home and saw Luo Yuzhu and her daughter at the door.
The old lady approached with a kindly expression, “Yuzhu, this must be Xiaofeng, she’s quite handsome, even more so than Yueyue.”
Lin Yue, who was sneaking peeks from the window, heard her grandmother’s words and sneered.
What kind of taste did her grandmother have?
Clearly, Xiaofeng was just a country bumpkin and couldn’t possibly compare to herself.
“Xiaofeng, quickly greet grandma,” Luo Yuzhu said to Su Xiaofeng with a smile.
“Hello, Grandma Lin,” Su Xiaofeng stood there, politely addressing the genial old lady before her.
Lin smiled at Xiaofeng: “You’re here now, that’s good.
Have your mom take you to your room to change clothes; we’re going to visit some relatives in a short while.”
Since the guest had arrived, they should send her to the Wu Family at once.
Lin Jing snorted disdainfully.
A mere country bumpkin thought she could move into their home?
Upon hearing the elder Mrs.
Lin’s statement, Luo Yuzhu was somewhat confused, “Mom, Xiaofeng has just arrived, wouldn’t it be too hasty?
How about we go early tomorrow morning instead?”
Weren’t they supposed to go tomorrow?
Why had the time changed?
Changing the time was not a problem, but the problem was that Xiaofeng’s pregnancy was yet unresolved, and they couldn’t just tell the Wu Family that Xiaofeng had gotten her period and couldn’t consummate the marriage.
“I just ran into the sister-in-law from the Wu Family when I went out.
She heard that you reclaimed your eldest daughter and is eager to meet her.
She instructed me to bring Xiaofeng over for her to see,” said the elder Mrs.
Lin with a tone that was not so pleasant.
Since the guest had arrived, of course, she should be sent over immediately; they couldn’t wait until tomorrow morning.
If they sent her today, they could consummate the marriage tonight.
Luo Yuzhu tried to explain awkwardly, “Mom, you don’t know, Xiaofeng is having her period, she just told me her stomach hurts, it might not be convenient.”
“I thought it was something serious,” the elder Mrs.
Lin looked at Luo Yuzhu displeased, thinking to herself that maybe Luo Yuzhu was having second thoughts about sending her daughter to the Wu Family, “Take Xiaofeng to change into some clothes; I’ll tell Xiaodai to brew her some brown sugar water.
Once she drinks it, everything will be fine.”
What girl doesn’t get her period?
It’s not as if it makes her unfit to meet people.
Brown sugar water, Luo Yuzhu thought after hearing her mother-in-law’s words, feeling enlightened.
Right, if she added something to the water, after drinking the brown sugar water, even if Xiaofeng wasn’t having her period, she would be.
“Xiaofeng, didn’t you say you weren’t feeling well?
Mom will brew you some brown sugar water, and after you drink it, we’ll go visit some relatives,” Luo Yuzhu said.
Visiting relatives, this might be believable to Su Peng, but telling it to herself, did they really think she was an idiot?
She slightly curved her red lips and spoke in a tone that was neither salty nor bland, “Alright.”
As for her pregnancy, of course, she couldn’t reveal it now; it wouldn’t be fun if she spilled the beans so soon.
