Chapter 1649: Chapter 1649: Deceiving Her
“Mom, why are you here?”
Su Yunjin asked instinctively.
Mrs. An’s already dark face grew even darker after hearing Su Yunjin’s words. What kind of question was Su Yunjin asking?
Why would she ask why Mrs. An had come?
This was her son’s home. Why couldn’t she come? Su Yunjin’s unintentional words now made Mrs. An feel very uncomfortable, and she was quite displeased with Su Yunjin.
Trying to suppress her anger, Mrs. An asked Su Yunjin, not very amiably, “Where is my granddaughter? I’m here to see her.” When she mentioned Little Tiangua, Mrs. An’s expression and tone became slightly more mellow.
Little Tiangua was simply a blessing for the Gu Family. As soon as she was born, she was chosen by the Prince Rui’s Chosen Wife to be their daughter-in-law. In the future, when Little Tiangua becomes the Princely Heir’s wife at Prince Rui Residence, the entire Gu Family would prosper with her. Mrs. An even dreamed of the day when her granddaughter would become the Princely Heir’s wife, and surely the whole village would be envious. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novel⚑fire.net
Little Tiangua was lying beside Su Yunjin, playing with a doll sewn by her second sister. Mrs. An came over and immediately picked up Little Tiangua, who was lying in bed.
“Third daughter-in-law, I have two prescriptions here. I specially went to the village to ask someone for this remedy. Last time Little Tiangua had a severe cough, and if Little Tiangua takes this remedy, she surely won’t cough again.” Mrs. An was holding Little Tiangua with one hand and raising the medicine she had brought with her to show Su Yunjin.
Gu Ya, who had followed Mrs. An in, quickly intervened before Su Yunjin could say anything. He snatched the packet of medicine from his mother’s hands. “Mom, we can’t let Little Tiangua take that medicine.”
“Third son, why can’t Little Tiangua take this medicine?” Mrs. An retorted.
She was quite angry and sarcastically said, “Third son, what? Do you really think your mom would harm Little Tiangua with some medicine? Little Tiangua is your daughter, but she’s also my granddaughter, and everything I’m doing is for her own good.” Mrs. An was upset that her son Gu Ya didn’t understand her, and apart from anger, she felt a bit aggrieved.
Upon hearing this, Su Yunjin finally understood. It turned out her mother-in-law had come over this time to bring a remedy for Little Tiangua. Su Yunjin knew medicine and didn’t believe in those so-called remedies from ancient times, but considering her mother-in-law’s good intentions for Little Tiangua, Su Yunjin spoke gently.
“Mom, both my husband and I know you’re doing this for Little Tiangua’s sake, and we know you’ve worked hard. But Little Tiangua’s illness is already healed, and there’s no need for her to take medicine.”
Little Tiangua, in Mrs. An’s arms, perhaps frightened, suddenly burst into tears, wanting her mother to hold her and not wanting Mrs. An to hold her, crying loudly.
Seeing Little Tiangua crying, Su Yunjin wanted to hold her daughter, “Mom, the child is crying. Give her to me; I’ll comfort her.” Usually, when Little Tiangua cried, as long as Su Yunjin held and comforted her, she would calm down.
Mrs. An looked down at Little Tiangua but did not give the child to Su Yunjin.
“Third daughter-in-law, you rest, and let me comfort her.” Mrs. An didn’t think comforting a child was difficult. She had given birth to several children herself and had taken care of several grandchildren.
Little Tiangua was her biological granddaughter, so naturally, it was her duty as a grandmother to comfort her. Mrs. An didn’t give the child to Su Yunjin, resulting in Little Tiangua crying louder and eventually starting to cough sharply.
“Cough, cough, cough.” Little Tiangua was crying and coughing, her little face turning red. Su Yunjin, heart aching for her child, couldn’t care whether Mrs. An agreed or not, and directly took Little Tiangua from Mrs. An’s arms.
Upon hearing Little Tiangua coughing, Mrs. An became even more convinced that Su Yunjin and Gu Ya had colluded to deceive her.
