Grandma Xia: "That's wonderful. I just came to see how my son is doing since he came to live with you. I remember everything you said clearly. Whether it was that you said you would take good care of them or that you didn't want a single penny, I remember it all. You haven't forgotten it all already, have you?"
Jiang Fangru's face flushed red. "You're meddling in everything, even our family affairs! What exactly do you want?"
Grandma Xia spread her hands. "It's obvious. I just came to ask, what you mean by taking good care of someone is taking care of them until they end up in the hospital, and then my second grandson just died like that?"
Jiang Fangru: "What do you mean 'your grandson'? He's my Zhu family's grandson. Don't forget that they'll all be surnamed Zhu from now on."
Grandma Xia: "It doesn't matter, then just consider him my grandson. He can call me grandma from now on. So, may I ask, where is the child?"
Jiang Fangru: "Are you here to interrogate me?"
Old Mrs. Xia: "Am I not obvious enough? Tell me, who did this?"
Jiang Fangru: "It was me. I accidentally pushed someone down. What do you want to do to me?"
Chen Xiangdong, anxiously standing by, immediately complained, "Mom, it's Zhu Wenfei."
Jiang Fangru looked at him like an enemy. They could control Wenying and her husband, so they could openly negotiate with them or threaten them. But Old Lady Xia was different. They had already suffered losses at her hands, so they were determined to remove the blame from Zhu Wenfei.
"Xiang Dong, you can't just accuse Wenfei of something just because I had a few words with him. I accidentally pushed Wenying down, and I've been apologizing all night. What do you want from me?" Jiang Fangru's voice was louder than usual, though she lacked confidence.
"Looks like she's really in a hurry," Grandma Xia thought to herself.
It's good to be in a hurry, because being in a hurry makes it easier to make mistakes and for others to find loopholes.
The second brother should have come; that kid has a knack for clever tricks, and he'll definitely make them suffer.
It's a pity he's not here; I have to rely on myself.
Chen Xiangdong and Zhu Wenying were about to get into another argument when Xia Laotai glared at them and shut them up.
Grandma Xia: "Fine, anyway, you can just say whatever you want, and no one can see what's going on. I want to see if you, the soon-to-be grandmother, will accidentally cause your grandson to miscarry now that Zhu Wenfei's wife is pregnant?"
Jiang Fangru: "How dare you curse my grandson?"
Old Mrs. Xia: "You still dare to kill your grandson directly!"
Jiang Fangru: "Anyway, this has nothing to do with my Wenfei, say whatever you want."
Grandma Xia: "Anyway, I'm not a police officer, so I don't have the ability to pry the truth out of you. But the police are on their way, and we'll know the truth soon. They are really capable people."
Jiang Fangru was shocked. This old hag was really ruthless. She hadn't even arrived at the hospital yet, and she had already called the police. Was she really going to send their family to jail?
Chen Xiangdong was bewildered. Zhu Wenying pinched his waist and silently asked him about it.
But he didn't know either. His mother had been with him the whole way. When did he report it to the police? Was it when he went to ask for leave?
Did someone else take the report?
Jiang Fangru panicked, "You...we're still related by marriage, how can you be so heartless? Are you really going to sever ties with us?"
Grandma Xia was just trying to scare them. She could tell that although the eldest son and his wife were heartbroken over the loss of their child, they didn't really want anyone from the Zhu family to go to jail. They just wanted to swindle some money out of them, and it was probably a large sum of money.
But Jiang Fangru's attitude of "not caring about anything" makes it difficult to talk to her.
“I don’t want to sever ties either. After all, my son works for you. If we really break off the relationship, what if you become a wicked mother-in-law and torment my son?”
"After all, he is my own son, and I often think about him."
Chen Xiangdong immediately put aside his earlier panic and was somewhat moved. It turned out that his mother was genuinely worried about him, not about the money.
Jiang Fangru felt somewhat relieved. Since this old woman still cared about Chen Xiangdong, there was something to talk about. "Xiangdong's mother, I didn't mean to do this to Wenying. I'm heartbroken to see her like this. She's my only daughter, and seeing her suffer makes me incredibly sad. Just tell me directly how you want to resolve this. We'll definitely try to meet your needs if we can. Let's not bother the police with these family matters."
Grandma Xia smiled and said, "Alright, let's talk."
Under Jiang Fangru's expectant gaze, she slowly said, "First of all, tell me the truth, who exactly harmed her?"
