Chapter 1616 Compared with setbacks, man-made disasters make him more disappointed
Everyone present was shocked by what Li Xiangnan discovered!
They opened their mouths, unable to believe that a baby who had only been born for less than a day had such a thing pulled out from the sole of his foot!
A needle!
A whole embroidery needle!
Who did this?
"Ah!!!" Qin Ruobai screamed in shock.
She is a future mother and a witness to the love between Wu Wanchun and Zhou Yuejin. She came here today to see the child, but ended up seeing such bad things one after another!
How could she, as a neighbor and a friend, accept this?
Zhou Yuejin's eyes instantly turned blood red. He pounced on Second Grandma, his voice distorted with rage: "Old witch! How dare you!!!"
"What did you do?!"
Zhou Feng, who had only been in for a few minutes, was instantly filled with anger.
He had been looking forward to his son getting married and having children, and he had been looking forward to the birth of his eldest grandson. It was even more difficult for him to see that the child and mother were safe under Li Xiangnan's rescue.
He originally thought that good days were coming and all the things he feared were over!
But compared to the unavoidable setbacks, this man-made disaster made him even more disheartened!
Aunt Lu even covered her mouth with her hands filled with astonishment, shock, fear and uneasiness, and tears as big as beans fell on the back of her hands. She couldn't believe that the people of the Wu family would do such an incredible thing!
Forget it for an adult!
How could they treat a newborn baby so harshly!
The Zhou family was all very angry, and Li Xiangnan, who had always hated evil, felt as if his internal organs were on fire by magma.
He gripped the embroidery needle tightly between his fingertips, looked at the old woman angrily, and shouted, "Second Grandma, explain to me, what happened? Did you do this? Ah!?"
When he roared, the Zhou and Wu families who had received favors from him yesterday, the doctors and nurses outside, and many patients' families who knew about what happened yesterday all gathered around him.
Second Grandma was so frightened that she stepped back repeatedly, knocking over a chair, but she forced herself to remain calm: "You are slandering me! Who knows if you stabbed me yourself? Maybe you offended someone and this is retribution!"
At this moment, Wu Wanchun, who had been silent all the time, suddenly started gesturing excitedly, screaming and crying, tears streaming down his face.
Her mother, the honest peasant woman, fell to her knees in front of Second Mistress, her voice mournful:
"Second Aunt! When Wanchun was little, you held her in your arms and praised her for her cleverness... She knew your grandson wanted a sewing plane ticket, and yesterday she asked Yuejin to find a way to get one... Why would you do this to her life?!"
Second Grandma jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, and screamed, "Bullshit! You're all conspiring to frame me! It was this Li guy who did this! He must have hidden the needle just now!"
"enough!"
The third uncle of the Zhou family, who had been watching coldly, suddenly stomped his crutch violently.
The old man pointed tremblingly at the silver bracelet on Second Grandma's wrist: "Red string! Where is the red string wrapped around your bracelet? I saw you showing it off this morning, saying it was the old red string you brought from your mother's family!"
Second Grandma subconsciously covered her wrist, but it was too late.
Everyone was shocked to find that half of the red thread originally wrapped around her silver bracelet was missing, and there were still some hairs on the broken end.
The proof is like a mountain!
Li Xiangnan rubbed the feet of the nursing baby Zhou Xiejun and looked at her angrily.
"Second Madam, what else do you have to say? Do you really think others are fools?"
Zhou Yuejin's lips trembled with anger. He looked at the people who had just spoken for the Second Grandma and shouted, "You just said that she was highly respected and virtuous, that she held the child, and that the child was blessed?"
"Ah? This is a blessing?" He spoke, and every word that came out of his mouth was full of anger.
"This is a fucking blessing! Okay, when your child is born, ask her to do the same!"
Zhou Yuejin was so angry that his face turned red and the veins on his neck popped.
The man in work clothes, the woman with permed hair, and the young man who was helping the second grandmother speak all lowered their heads unconsciously, feeling humiliated.
Li Xiangnan squinted his eyes and looked at them, wondering about their identities. It was very likely that they were the second grandmother's family members and their children.
What a hell!
How can human nature be so evil? Why are there always people who help their relatives but not others?
A child can be bullied to this extent!
If he hadn't discovered it in time, Zhou Xiejun didn't know what the consequences would have been!
It’s unimaginable!
Li Xiangnan unconsciously recalled some legends he had heard in the past.
It is said that some old people favor boys over girls and do not like girls. After girls are born, they deliberately stick embroidery needles into their hearts to cause them to die early. They do all this without anyone knowing, making people mistakenly believe that the girls died of illness!
Human nature is so ugly, how outrageous!
Thinking of the evil nature of the Wu family's second wife, Li Xiangnan became furious.
"Doctor Ming, call the security department! This kind of intentional harm to someone, especially such a young child, is an aggravated crime!"
"No!" The man in work clothes next to him jumped up instantly, his face full of nervousness!
But Li Xiangnan glared at him fiercely, scaring him so much that he shuddered instantly and became wilted immediately!
Second Grandma finally collapsed to the ground, her old face wrinkled into a ball, and she began to sob: "I... I'm just obsessed... Look at how lucky Wanchun is, marrying into the Zhou family to eat commercial grain, and having a son at once... But think of my disappointing grandson, and how my wife gave birth to two girls in a row, leaving us with no one to carry on the family... I, I feel so miserable..."
She suddenly laughed like crazy, pointing at everyone in the room: "Why are you pretending to be innocent? When we heard that Wanchun was going to marry into the city, who wasn't gossiping behind her back? Saying she was a sparrow turning into a phoenix? Saying the Zhou family was blind?"
The room was dead silent.
Those relatives who had gossiped about me hung their heads in shame.
Li Xiangnan carefully handed the child back to the tearful Wu Wanchun, then turned to Zhou Yuejin and said in a deep voice:
"Brother Yuejin, remember this needle I gave you today. Some people live in the gutter and can't stand seeing others get even a glimmer of sunshine. In your future life, don't have the intention to harm others, but be wary of others—you must."
The sun was scorching outside the window, but the delivery room was shrouded in a bone-chilling cold.
Qin Ruobai subconsciously protected her belly, and her eyes were full of fear and dependence when she looked at her husband.
Li Xiangnan held his wife's hand, his eyes swept across the room full of relatives with different expressions, and finally landed on the old lady who was crying and laughing, and he sighed softly.
The most hurtful things in this world are never the open attacks, but the jealousy wrapped in the cloak of family affection and the malice hidden in the wrinkles.
To protect the beauty of new life, we need not only joy, but also eyes that can see through hypocrisy and a heart that never compromises.
"Dean!" Soon Yuan Hongjun led the security department people hurried in.
"Take her away! Notify the police station to come and get her!"
"Yes!"
After the resounding response, the second grandmother was taken away in a dispirited state, leaving behind only the frightened relatives in the room.
"Xiao Li~"
Zhou Yuejin's entire back was soaked with sweat from fear.
Li Xiangnan understood the meaning of this call. He supported his comrade, squeezed his shoulders, and said seriously, "The children must be kept under our watchful eyes. Don't let anyone make any small moves! It's so difficult for them to grow up!"
Zhou Yuejin wiped the sweat from his forehead, remained silent, and clutched Li Xiangnan's hand tightly, as if he had found a lifeline...
