Chapter 1089: The Child Died


    At that point, everyone understood what the final twist was. Lu Xingzhi said, "In the end, she must have


    given birth to a daughter."


    Lu Xiaoxiao did not shake her head or nod. She continued to speak slowly. "Perhaps it was because


    she was stressed out. The woman went intobor, but it was a difficult one. When the old woman saw


    it, she immediately called for someone to take her daughter-inw to the county hospital. When she


    paid the hospital fees, she did not even blink. She was afraid that the doctor would not treat her


    daughter-inw well, so she even gave the chief surgeon a red packet. She waited outside the delivery


    room for as long as her daughter-inw stayed there."


    Everyone waited quietly for the story to continue; only then did Lu Xiaoxiao''s voice begin to change.


    "Brother is right; the foolish wife gave birth to a daughter."


    The three people''s expressions suddenly stiffened. Even though they had guessed it, they still broke


    out in a sweat when they heard it.


    "She was hoping for a grandson, but in the end, she had a granddaughter. That old woman must have


    been mad with anger." Lu Yuqing sighed. "For someone like her, she might as well be as cold and


    indifferent as before the woman was pregnant. The greater the hope, the more terrible the


    disappointment."


    "Yes, Sister is right."


    Lu Xiaoxiao imitated Lu Yuqing''s tone and sighed. "The doctor carried the child out of the delivery room


    and handed her to the old woman. When the old woman heard that it was a daughter, she grabbed the


    doctor''s arm and shouted that the doctor had swapped her grandson. The doctor had carried her


    grandson away and reced him with a girl to fool her. She was so mad that she wanted the doctor to


    take her to her grandson. Even the neighbors could not stop her. My friend''s mother said that the old


    woman had scratched them and left several bloody marks when they tried to pull her away."


    "It was only her first child, so what if she had a girl? They could have continued to try for another baby


    if she wanted a grandson so badly. She believed the fortune-teller, right? And the fortune-teller said that


    her daughter-inw would have a son in her life. Perhaps the second or third baby would be a son."


    Jiang Yao curled her lips and replied, "Xingzhi even insisted that I give birth to a daughter."


    "Not all families are as open-minded as ours."


    Lu Yuqing smiled. "I''m a girl, and my grandparents doted on me. It''s a pity that they all died so early.


    They passed away not long after Xingzhi was born."


    "My father only has one daughter. Look how happy he is every day." Lu Xiaoxiao did not have a tail. If


    she had one, she would definitely wag it proudly. "My dad is also open-minded. Those people who


    advise my dad to marry another wife and have a son, I curse them every time I see them."


    "What happened after that?"


    Lu Xingzhi reached out and held Jiang Yao''s hand. He pinched her gloved hand in the palm of his hand


    and asked, "Didn''t you say that she had a daughter? What about the child? Did the woman take her?"

    "No..."


    Lu Xiaoxiao shook her head and heaved a sigh. Then, she said, "The child died."


    "Died from illness?" Jiang Yao asked.


    "Not really."


    Lu Xiaoxiao continued to shake her head. "Just listen to me. That old woman caused such a ruckus in


    the hospital. Even the doctors couldn''t do anything for her. After the woman woke up in the ward, the


    old woman pointed at her and scolded her in front of everyone else. She said that she was a jinx who


    gave birth to a little slut and wasted so many of her good things. She even spent so much money on


    her. She said that if she had known that the woman would give birth to a slut, she wouldn''t have let her


    eat anything even if she poured all the food out!"
