Not only my sister-in-law, but I was also stunned. What kind of logic was that? It was obvious that my uncle was overwhelmed with grief and had become stubborn. My cousin was his precious son, and the bad news had come so suddenly that he wasn't prepared at all. Now, he was angry at my sister-in-law.
Seeing that my sister-in-law was speechless, he raised his hand and was about to slap her. I reacted quickly and stopped him. "Uncle, calm down. Who would have thought that such a disaster would happen? My sister-in-law is already sad, and she's pregnant. If you hit her, wouldn't it make things worse?!"
My uncle took a deep breath and calmed himself down, but he still couldn't hide his excitement. "Motherf * cker! Who did this to Dongliang? I want him to pay with his blood!
"Wait, I'll call the police station."
My sister-in-law frowned and took out her phone. This tragedy had happened because of the driver.
Soon, my sister-in-law called the police station. The news she got was that the driver had fled to avoid punishment. They were still in the process of arresting him. As for the specific results, they would inform the family.
My uncle was so excited that he snatched the phone. "You bastards who live off the government and don't do anything …"
Before he could finish, we heard a beeping sound. He cursed a few more times. I could tell that my uncle was helpless. He was just a retired village official, and he couldn't do much in Yun City.
"You guys can leave. I'll stay with Dongliang alone." He lit a cigarette and took a deep breath. Then, he waved his hand.
My sister-in-law and I had to leave the ward and take a walk in the open space of the hospital. My sister-in-law looked solemn. She kept an appropriate distance from me so that we wouldn't be seen. "Xiao Feng, what if your uncle finds out?"
Actually, I was also helpless. Normally, people would have a short period of time before they died. My cousin might have thought of the truth. My concern for my sister-in-law had crossed the line. A while ago, in the toilet of the movie theater, he had questioned me seriously. At that moment, it was as if the sky had collapsed.
"If it doesn't work, I'll take you away, or divorce my cousin. Then, you'll be free." I pondered and gave him two options.
"Yeah, I'm just afraid that your uncle won't let go of the child. I'm thinking that we can fool him later. The child is already aborted, so it'll be easier to deal with. Anyway, the pregnancy hasn't shown yet." My sister-in-law was smart.
I nodded in agreement. Of course, that was the worst case scenario.
Around an hour later, we bought some food and sent it to the ward. My uncle still didn't say a word. Although my cousin wasn't good, he was still his son. I could understand his pain.
The uncle was silent for a long time. Suddenly, he asked his sister-in-law how much they had saved in the past few years. His sister-in-law said that there was nothing left, but the uncle did not believe her at all. He thought that his sister-in-law wanted to keep the property for herself, which made her cry. She said that her cousin had taken away her little treasury, and now there was only twenty or thirty thousand left.
My uncle didn't get angry. He squinted his eyes and said, "Oh, it seems that you feel wronged. Tell me, what's wrong with the child?"
My heart sank. Did my uncle notice something? Oh my god, I'm going to die. Is my cousin going to drag someone down with him when he's on the brink of death?
It was definitely possible. Although I had helped him bear the debt of more than one million, my cousin might not be grateful to me. If he guessed that I had cheated on him, he might take this chance to fight to the death.
"What? I don't understand."
My sister-in-law looked confused. She was calm, but I knew that she was as confused as I was.
"Haha, you still want to hide it from me?
Do you think I'm easy to fool? "
My uncle was so angry that he stood up. He exuded the dignity of a small village official. In the past, I was afraid of my uncle. After all, he was an important person in the village. However, after coming to Yun City, I had even come into contact with the bureau chief. Of course, I could keep a straight face. I was afraid that my sister-in-law couldn't handle the pressure. She was pregnant, and her emotions would fluctuate too much.
My sister-in-law remained silent. However, at this critical moment, she couldn't deny it. My cousin was lying on the sickbed, and my uncle looked as if he had evidence. It was really stressful. My sister-in-law wasn't good at lying, so silence was the best way to express herself.
My heart was pounding so hard that it felt like it was going to jump out of my chest at any moment. It's over. Today is destined to be a day filled with tragedy. Uncle's expression became more and more confident. "What? You have nothing to say?
When you went out, I called a doctor to check on him. Dong Liang doesn't have the ability to give birth. How can he get pregnant?
You shameless slut, whose child are you pregnant with?! "
At this moment, I didn't say a word. Fortunately, my uncle didn't look at me. He trusted me. After all, he had watched me grow up. I was quite conservative when it came to morals and ethics. There were so many naughty kids in the village. I was the most serious one when it came to stealing women's underwear. Other than my cousin who framed me, I had never done anything like that before.
My sister-in-law's face turned pale. I wanted to persuade my uncle, but I didn't know where to start. However, with my sister-in-law's mental endurance, she shouldn't be afraid of him. I had to put on a good show. Otherwise, it would only make my uncle suspicious.
She cried even harder and told my uncle the whole story. My cousin had threatened my sister-in-law to get pregnant by selling his house. She had no choice but to go to the hospital and borrow the sperm bank to have a test tube baby.
At first, my uncle didn't believe me. My sister-in-law turned on her phone and found my cousin's chat history. There were also a bunch of screenshots. Coincidentally, my cousin's phone had the same chat history. It was irrefutable evidence. My uncle was speechless. He was so angry that he glared at my cousin and scolded my cousin for being an unfilial son. However, I wasn't sure if he could hear me.
My sister-in-law was smart. I was so scared that I peed my pants. I thought the truth was going to be exposed. However, she managed to cover up her lie and exposed my cousin's ugly side.
"Hmph, he's been torturing me for years. I've always tolerated him. Also, I gave him the two hundred thousand yuan unconditionally. He said he would pay me back. Now, it seems that only you, the father, can pay me back." My sister-in-law snorted coldly. She felt like she was in control of the situation. She showed the leader the transfer records.
"Ah, Xiao Mei, don't, don't. I thought you had an affair behind Dong Liang's back. Ahem, you guys are husband and wife. Don't talk about money. This is too hurtful. He tricked me into giving him three hundred thousand yuan. Sigh, how am I going to live in the future?" My uncle hurriedly waved his hand, afraid that my sister-in-law would take it seriously.
