CHAPTER 1343: CHAPTER 685: EVIL AGAINST EVIL (PART 2)

Lady Zhou pursed her lips, still not speaking, but her cloudy eyes moved slightly.

"See what’s wrong with the old lady. Why isn’t she speaking? If she’s not well, we should hurry back. It’s about time for her to take her medicine," Lian Manman said.

"Mother." Lian Lanlan quickly nudged Lady Zhou.

Lady Zhou’s body trembled, she pushed Lian Lanlan away forcefully, and suddenly looked up.

"You have bad intentions, just showing off your kindness. You caused my Xiuxiu not to acknowledge me and call you mother. You’re stabbing me in the heart," Lady Zhou accused.

How could there be such narrow-minded, jealous, people who turn kindness into enmity in this world? Is such a person even worth respecting?

"You are like the dog biting Lv Dongbin, poor me with good intentions," Lady Zhang shook her head, sighed, and asked Lady Zhou again, "That’s one thing, there’s another. I pity her third aunt sometimes and help her. Does that offend you too?"

"You’re just up to no good," Lady Zhou said confidently, "Why should I pity her? With her manner, she’d have been kicked out long ago in any other family. What did I do to her? I gave her food and drink. You say she’s pitiful, aren’t you saying I’m being harsh? You help her, arguing against me, just to show off your benevolence, make others say I’m wicked, and I’m wrong."

Lady Zhang was amused but tears were glistening in her eyes.

"Old lady, let me ask you again, I was pregnant, your daughter pushed me over, I asked you to call a doctor, you didn’t. You, you killed my child and almost killed me too. Is that not wrong? Pat your chest and tell the truth, do you feel guilty, are you fair to me?" Lady Zhang usually had a gentle temperament but was also provoked this time.

Lady Zhou lowered her head again, pursing her lips, not saying a word.

"Old lady, you’re such an imposing, domineering person, how can you dare not take responsibility now? Look at me, answer me. You’re afraid, aren’t you?" Lady Zhang stood up excitedly.

This time, Lian Manman didn’t stop Lady Zhang.

"I, what am I afraid of?" Lady Zhou, unable to handle provocation, immediately raised her head again.

"You deliberately didn’t call the doctor for me. You saw me bleeding, you wanted me dead, you feared I’d say your daughter pushed me, right? You hate me, wish me dead, and are afraid if I had the child, there’d be another mouth to feed at home, right?" Lady Zhang stepped closer to Lady Zhou, pressing her.

Lady Zhou quivered her lips, gritting her teeth, not speaking.

Lady Zhang took two more steps forward, leaned down slightly, grabbed Lady Zhou’s shoulders, forcing her to face her. Lady Zhang hadn’t slept well the night before, cried for a long time earlier, and was then angered by Lady Zhou almost to the point of spitting blood. Now, Lady Zhang’s eyes were bloodshot, and the muscles on her face slightly twisted in anger and pain.

"Oh no, my mom has been possessed by Xiao Ba again!" Lian Manman jumped off the bed, exclaimed in panic, "Xiao Ba hasn’t reincarnated yet, he wants revenge on the old lady."

Lady Zhou was already a bit scared, hearing Lian Manman say this, and seeing Lady Zhang’s appearance was indeed different than usual. She, already guilty in her heart, believed it and was frightened, her eyes rolled, her legs went weak, she struggled desperately to retreat.

"Don’t grab me, don’t grab me, it was Xiuxiu who pushed, not me..." Lady Zhou trembled as she retreated, stuttering.

At the brink of life and death, one’s own survival is most important, even the dear daughter can be used as a scapegoat. Lian Manman couldn’t help but secretly sigh. With Lady Zhou’s ruthlessness and selfishness, how could Lian Shouxin and Lady Zhang be her match?

"It’s you who refused to call the doctor, your hands are stained with blood, with human life, you won’t escape," Lian Manman approached, saying gloomily.

"Xiao Ba, it’s only right to avenge yourself, sister will get you a knife," Lian Manman deliberately said to Lady Zhang.

"The knife is here, the knife is here." The maid Xiao Qing ran over, holding a gleaming object.

"Ah..." Lady Zhou screamed in misery, her hands flailing in front to fend off, "Don’t kill me, don’t kill me, I’ll confess, I’ll burn incense for you, I’ll burn paper money for you."

In the past year or two, Lady Zhou indeed became more devout, lighting incense and worshiping Buddha, Lian Manman knew hence, Lady Zhou was fearful inside.

"Your pretense, what’s the use? Now my mom asked you a question, why don’t you answer? If you want Xiao Ba to spare you, see how you treated my mom?" Lian Manman pressed decisively.

Lady Zhou had been under attack these two days, her strong nerves reached their limits, plus guilt, haunted conscience, frightened by Lian Manman, finally completely collapsed.

Lady Zhou prostrated on the ground, palms together, praying to Lady Zhang.

"It’s my fault, I owe you, I’m not at peace either, I’ve had my retribution, my Xiuxiu got her retribution too," Lady Zhou pleaded weakly.

"Lian Xiuxiu is Lian Xiuxiu, you are you. She brought it upon herself, what does it have to do with us? What you owe my mom, owe Xiao Ba, must be paid!" Lian Manman said fiercely.

"I’ll pay, I’ll pay..." Lady Zhou trembled as she spoke.

"Young lady, do you smell something? Is there some kind of smell?" Xiao Qing asked standing next to Lian Manman.

"There is a smell," Lian Manman said, pulling Lady Zhang away a bit.

"Oh dear, it must be the old lady who wet her pants," Han Zhong’s Wife exclaimed from the side.

As soon as Han Zhong’s Wife finished speaking, laughter erupted all around.

Lady Zhou instinctively touched her crotch. The old lady from the farmstead wore traditional pants with a wide crotch.

"No, no urine," feeling dry to the touch, Lady Zhou couldn’t help saying.

This time, the laughter was even louder.

Lady Zhou looked up bewildered, seeing unfamiliar smiling faces all around, and in front, Lady Zhang and Lian Manman’s faces were also smiling. Only then did Lady Zhou realize she’d been tricked, she rolled her eyes and fell backward.

Now, embarrassed, she pretended to faint.

"Old lady is ill again, big sister-in-law, quickly help the old lady back," Lian Manman quickly said.

"Manman, I have one more thing," Lian Lanlan refused to leave, supporting Lady Zhou, she spoke to Lian Manman.
