Parents' Love: My Childhood Sweethearts with Jiang Weidong

"What's wrong? Xiaobai, it's good to have another person to take care of Xiaoguai. I'm doing this for her own good."

Zhou's mother turned to look at Bai Ge, her eyes filled with a threat.

Bai Ge closed her eyes. Lin Wangshu was a shrewd person, and if things were handled poorly, she would see through it, and then she would really lose more than she gained.

But Zhou's mother, being so short-sighted, only cared about Lin Wangshu's family background, without considering that she was not so easily manipulated.

But Bai Ge couldn't stop it. Under the threatening gaze of Zhou's mother, she pleaded with Lin Wangshu, who looked suspicious, "Wangshu, I'm sorry to trouble you."

Lin Wangshu sensed something was wrong. "Aunt Zhou, why don't you go? I've never held a baby before!"

Zhou's mother sighed, "The doctor wants to talk to me about Xiaobai's illness, otherwise I wouldn't have bothered you."

Seeing Lin Wangshu's hesitation, the white dove cried out pitifully, "Wangshu."

Hearing her call out to him, Lin Wangshu remembered the regret she had when she mentioned her daughter, and nodded in agreement, "Okay, I will definitely bring my daughter back to you."

Although Zhou Mei was a little confused as to why the person had been changed, she looked at Lin Wangshu's face and chuckled to herself, thinking that her brother was probably willing.

Lin Wangshu followed the Zhou family mother and daughter out of the ward. Bai Ge stared at their backs from behind, opening her mouth several times, but then stopped herself, and finally could only slump down on the hospital bed in despair.

He Xiao thought she was eager to see her daughter, so she smiled and comforted her, "Sister Baige, don't worry, you'll see Xiaoguai soon."

Looking at her smiling face, Bai Ge felt even more guilty, but she was doing it for her daughter. She couldn't help but think of Zhou's mother's words.

"You should also think about your daughter. Before you die, find her a stepmother who will love her, and her life will be better afterward."

"I think Lin Wangshu is quite nice; she's beautiful and comes from a good family."

Upon learning that Lin Wangshu had returned home to visit her family, Zhou's mother clicked her tongue in regret.

Only after learning that He Xiao's father was the factory manager of a food factory did they reluctantly agree to replace her.

But Lin Wangshu came unexpectedly today, and Zhou's mother greedily wanted to switch back.

Lin Wangshu is smarter than He Xiao, so Bai Ge is now unsure whether the plan, which was originally a sure thing, can succeed.

Bai Ge closed her eyes, clenched her fists, and silently apologized to Lin Wangshu. She had no choice but to do it and hoped that Lin Wangshu wouldn't blame her. She told her that Brother Zhou was a good man and that he would treat her well in the future.

Although Song Jing didn't talk much, she was very perceptive. Observing the exchange of glances between Bai Ge and Zhou's mother, she always felt that they were plotting something.

Seeing the guilt and struggle on Bai Ge's face, her heart pounded, and she became even more worried about Lin Wangshu who had left.

"Xiaoxiao, you stay here and take care of Sister Baige. I'm going out to get some hot water."

Song Jing glanced at the white dove with its eyes closed, seemingly resting, and whispered to He Xiao.

He Xiao was looking at Bai Ge with concern, and nodded absentmindedly when he heard this, so he didn't notice that Song Jing said she wanted to fetch water, but didn't even take the kettle.

As soon as Song Jing left the ward, she ran towards the hospital exit. Finally, after exiting the main gate, she saw the backs of Lin Wangshu and Zhou Mei.

She breathed a sigh of relief and followed them at a distance.

Zhou Mei seemed very curious about Lin Wangshu, and chattered with her the whole way.

"Sister Wangshu, you are so beautiful."

"Sister Wangshu, you must have more pretty dresses than my sister-in-law, right? Let me see them sometime."

"Sister Wangshu, I heard from my sister-in-law that your dad is a commander, is that true?"

Lin Wangshu was getting a headache from her noise and gave her a cold glance. "We're not that close. Can you be quiet?"

Zhou Mei was stunned by her imposing manner and was speechless for a moment.

Finally, she stomped her foot in anger and muttered under her breath, "Hmph, once you marry into this family, I'll have my mom teach you a lesson, and then we'll see if you're still so arrogant!"

But things haven't come to fruition yet, and Zhou Mei doesn't dare bother her anymore. Otherwise, if Lin Wangshu gives up, her mother will beat her to death.

They arrived at the Zhou family's house in silence. They lived in a cramped and noisy tenement building.

Lin Wangshu frowned and followed Zhou Mei to their doorstep, but then refused to go inside.

"Go and bring the child out. I'll wait for you at the door."

Zhou Mei was dumbfounded when she saw that she refused to go in. Her brother was still waiting inside. How could things get done if she didn't go in?

"The child is at the neighbor's house, and they're helping to take care of him. I need to go in first to pack up the clothes my sister-in-law will wear after she leaves. Why don't you come in with me and rest for a bit?"

In this emergency, Zhou Mei's rusty brain finally managed to come up with a good excuse.

Seeing the curious stares from her neighbors, Lin Wangshu didn't want to stand at the door, so she could only nod.

Upon entering the house, Zhou Mei first glanced towards the bedroom, then warmly invited Lin Wangshu to sit down.

Looking at the teapot that had been prepared on the table, Zhou Mei picked it up with trembling hands and poured a bowl of water for Lin Wangshu.

Because it was her first time doing something like this, Zhou Mei was so nervous that she couldn't breathe when the moment came.

Looking at her covered in sweat, Lin Wangshu asked suspiciously, "Why are you all sweaty?"

Zhou Mei's hand trembled in fright. She quickly placed the water in front of her and said calmly, "The sun is scorching today. I've been walking all the way here and it's hot."

He then pushed the water towards her, saying, "Drink up, it'll quench your thirst. I even added sugar."

Lin Wangshu's face was also flushed from the sun, and her mouth was dry. She nodded and reached for the bowl on the table.

Zhou Mei stared at her intently, wanting to see her drink it.

Seeing that she wasn't moving, Lin Wangshu grew impatient and stopped what she was doing, asking, "Why aren't you getting ready yet?"

Fearing that she would suspect something, Zhou Mei didn't dare to stand there any longer. Moreover, seeing that Lin Wangshu's lips were so dry they were peeling, she wasn't worried that Lin Wangshu wouldn't drink, so she turned around and went back to her bedroom.

Lin Wangshu was indeed extremely thirsty. He picked up the bowl, intending to drink, but then noticed a layer of oil floating on the surface of the water. Upon closer inspection, he realized it was the same bowl the Zhou family used for eating, and he felt nauseous.

Disgusted, Lin Wangshu placed the bowl on the table, but the image of the oily residue kept replaying in her mind. Her obsessive-compulsive disorder kicked in, and she picked up the bowl and poured out the water, only then feeling relieved.

Inside the bedroom, Zhou Lin was extremely excited when his sister told him that Lin Wangshu had come.

"Get out of here. If she drinks the water, leave immediately. If she doesn't, then come back in!"

Zhou Mei nodded, opened the door and went out, only to find Lin Wangshu still sitting at the table, the water in her bowl gone.

"Sister Wangshu, please sit down. I'll go get the baby."

He left before Lin Wangshu could react.

Song Jing stood downstairs and waited for a while, but they didn't come down. She secretly thought something was wrong.

I rushed upstairs and found Zhou Mei standing alone in the hallway. The door to the Zhou family's house was locked from the outside.

Song Jing immediately understood what was happening. She grabbed Zhou Mei, who was trying to run away, and whispered, "Open the door!"

Zhou Mei didn't expect her to come, but now that things were fading, she couldn't let Song Jing ruin it.

"Impossible. Go ahead and shout. You'd better bring everyone here so that they can all be witnesses."

Song Jing didn't dare to shout, and seeing Zhou Mei's nonchalant attitude, she was so anxious that tears were about to come out.

Finally catching a glimpse of the kitchen knife on the cutting board in the hallway, Song Jing gritted her teeth, picked it up, and placed it against Zhou Mei's neck, her face hardening as she threatened her fiercely.

"Don't make a sound, open the door!"
