Chapter 812: Chapter 812: You’re Pretending to Have Morning Sickness, Aren’t You?_1
Tong Tiehu, having heard what Tong Erlang said, turned his gaze upon Zhu Hongyun with a pair of piercing eyes that scrutinized her, “You said she didn’t vomit this morning?”
“No vomiting!”
Tong Erlang nodded emphatically, his face filled with unease.
“Then let’s wait until lunch and try other dishes before discussing this further,” Tong Tiehu said sternly.
Strange.
The water from Qiao Xiaomai’s Spiritual Spring, aside from its taste, had no other effects; it normally couldn’t cure morning sickness.
But Zhu Hongyun had stopped vomiting…
With this thought, a notion surfaced in his mind.
Considering this possibility, he couldn’t help but frown deeply, “Erlang, tell me the truth, is your wife faking her morning sickness?!”
Tong Tiehu spoke with a severe tone that caught Tong Erlang and Zhu Hongyun off guard.
Tong Erlang widened his eyes, his voice filled with sorrow and anger, “Grandfather, who is faking it?!”
Zhu Hongyun also clutched her belly and yelled as if she had been greatly wronged, “My morning sickness is real, okay!”
“Not faking it?” Tong Tiehu huffed in response, “The food Xiaomai made is just ordinary, not medicinal meals, so how could it possibly cure morning sickness? Based on your past behaviors, it’s highly likely you’re feigning this sickness!”
Upon hearing this, Tong Erlang couldn’t help but jump up, “We aren’t faking! Do you not see how much Xiaoyun suffers from vomiting every day, Grandfather?!”
Tong Tiehu looked at him with a stern face and humphed, “You even came up with the despicable trick of framing Zhaodi with a hairpin; isn’t faking morning sickness a piece of cake for you?”
Zhu Hongyun “…”
She gritted her teeth and spoke up, “Grandfather, that’s a long time ago, let’s not mention it! I’m carrying your great-grandson in my belly!”
Upon hearing this, Tong Tiehu looked at her coldly, “You can’t even raise a son properly, a great-grandson like you is better off not being born at all.”
He left these words behind and turned to leave.
Before leaving, Yang Wenxiao planted snapdragon flowers on Liuli Tomb, and he visited the site every day since.
Uninterested in dealing with this person, he quickened his pace toward the mountain.
Tong Tiehu walked briskly away, leaving Zhu Hongyun and Tong Erlang gaping at each other.
They were speaking the truth now, but why wouldn’t Tong Tiehu believe them!
Zhu Hongyun stamped her foot and pointed at Tong Erlang, “Go find Qiao Xiaomai and tell her I can’t do without the food she makes. Otherwise, I won’t be able to keep this child. If she wants to watch her unborn nephew be lost like this, let her have the heart to refuse cooking for me!”
Tong Erlang “…”
He asked with caution, “Xiaoyun, isn’t this a bit much? Morning sickness will pass if you just endure it.”
“Are you going or not?!” Zhu Hongyun, furious, grabbed a pillow from the bed and threw it at him, “I’m carrying your child in my belly!”
Tong Erlang was hit squarely by the pillow, and seeing Zhu Hongyun with tears of anger in her eyes, he immediately nodded, “Alright, alright, don’t be angry. I’ll go right now; just wait a bit.”
It is said that pregnant women can be moody and need to be coaxed and comforted; it seemed that Zhu Hongyun was in one of her moods.
She already had a bad relationship with Qiao Xiaomai, now truthfully speaking and yet being wrongly accused by Tong Tiehu, the anger in her heart must have grown even stronger.
Thinking this, Tong Erlang’s face clouded with worry as he unhappily led the ox cart out.
Sigh, it looks like today I’ll have to kneel before Qiao Xiaomai!
Resolved, Tong Erlang drove the ox cart towards the manor. The gates of the enclosing wall were wide open; he stopped the cart at the entrance, inquired about Qiao Xiaomai and Tong Sanlang’s whereabouts from the Construction Team, and then walked towards them.
What do you think?
