Chapter 841: The Sins Committed Will Always Come Knocking

Gu Zhihao is not young anymore, and he has been longing for a child of his own until his eyes have turned red; he even dreams about it.

Shi Youxuan had many tonics sent over to help nourish Shi Yuke's body.

Upon learning that Shi Yuke was pregnant, the happiest person was Jian Yixin!

This was perfect; Moli was now completely her son, and with Shi Yuke having another child, it was even less likely that she would fight her for Moli.

She sent even more, with tonics being delivered to the Shi Family in a steady stream.

That wasn't all; Jian Yixin even hired a very experienced nanny to go to the Shi Family to take care of Shi Yuke.

But it wasn't all good news.

Aside from those who offered sincere congratulations, there were also people who came to the door to mock and ridicule.

Somehow, Jiang Siwei found out about the news of Shi Yuke's marriage and pregnancy.

Jiang Siwei dressed like a wealthy lady and went to the Shi Family to throw her weight around.

"Xi Fu, I heard my eldest cousin got married? And she's pregnant?"

At first, Shi Yucheng didn't even recognize her.

Having not kept in touch for many years, Jiang Siwei had changed her appearance; although she was still just as fat, she was much more ostentatious than before.

Moreover, her eyes were fixed on her forehead, and when she spoke to him, she didn't even look at him directly.

"It's been years, what are you here for?" Shi Yucheng never had a good impression of anyone from his wife's side of the family.

Every single one of them was the type to fawn over the powerful and trample on the weak.

When the Shi Family had money, they all clung on very affectionately, but later, when the Shi Family was ruined and he moved into a nursing home, not a single one of them came to visit.

Jiang Siwei was his daughter's follower when she was young, and she had bullied Xuanxuan with her many times.

Now that his daughter had finally become "better," he didn't want her to have any further involvement with the Jiang Family, especially not with Jiang Siwei.

This girl had a big mouth, and seeing that she had come with ill intent, she certainly wouldn't have anything good to say.

Whatever you fear, that is what happens.

"I came to see my cousin. I heard she's become a fool and married a man who collects trash. It's hilarious!"

Jiang Siwei covered her mouth and chuckled, triumphant: "She always used to laugh at Cousin Xuanxuan for being a fool, but in the end, she's more miserable than anyone, even worse off than me..."

She had followed behind Shi Yuke since she was a child; her eldest cousin had always been her idol, and she had been fiercely loyal to Shi Yuke.

But later, she discovered that she was nothing more than a dog by Shi Yuke's side!

After the two fell out, Jiang Siwei hated Shi Yuke deeply. Later, when Shi Yuke was in the mental hospital, she wanted to go and mock her, but her own life had fallen into such poverty that she had to take money from her mother-in-law just to buy a bus ticket, and she had to watch her mother-in-law's expression.

Then, through a twist of fate, her husband was appreciated by Sheng Hanyu and sent abroad for work.

Liu Fengchao did exceptionally well abroad, getting promoted and receiving raises, buying a house and a car back in the country; the Liu Family leaped from extreme poverty and living beyond their means to the middle class.

Jiang Siwei started to put on airs.

The first thing she did after putting on airs was to seek a sense of presence in front of her former eldest cousin.

It wasn't hard to find out about Shi Yuke's current situation; she heard that she had become a fool, with the intelligence of a five-year-old child, and had taken in a down-and-out man who collected trash as a live-in son-in-law.

Jiang Siwei felt her opportunity had arrived; her purpose in coming today was very clear: she wanted to humiliate her.

Shi Yucheng said in a muffled voice, "Xiaowei, your aunt treated you well when she was alive, didn't she? You were so close to your eldest cousin back then, but now you speak like this—is it appropriate?"

She was righteous and confident: "It's appropriate! Didn't Shi Yuke rely on her own intelligence to treat everyone else like fools? Wasn't her favorite thing to do in the past to tease fools? Didn't she aspire to marry the wealthiest man and become the most noble woman in Jiangzhou?"

"I came here today just to ask her: does it sting to be slapped in the face?"

"Back then, she dragged me along to bully Cousin Xuanxuan and called her a fool, but Cousin Xuanxuan is the smartest and most insightful woman. That Shi Yuke isn't even fit to carry my Cousin Xuanxuan's Spring Shoes!"

The more she spoke, the more excited she became, and Shi Yucheng's expression grew increasingly ugly.

Shi Liu hurriedly grabbed the blood pressure medication and handed it to his godfather, then grabbed Jiang Siwei by the collar and pushed her out of the house.

"Get out, get out, get out! You fat, ugly woman. If you dare to come here again, I won't be polite."

Jiang Siwei hadn't finished speaking, so how could she shut up?

"Yo, I can't tell, can I? Shi Yuke has become a fool and there's still a man willing to speak up for her. You must have something going on with her, too. This fool really has a way with men; sure enough, men all like pretty faces, it doesn't matter if there's any intelligence..."

Shi Liu was furious and spat at her: "Pah! You filthy woman. You're ugly on the outside and even uglier on the inside. Your head is full of filth. I'm her younger brother, do you understand? A brother!"

She was unconcerned: "A 'dry' brother, right? There's no blood relation, and that woman Shi Yuke isn't picky about who she takes."

"She even seduced Chairman Sheng, her own brother-in-law, so why wouldn't she seduce you? Alright, alright, stop putting on a show of righteous indignation in front of me. I know better than you what kind of person that woman is..."

Shi Liu's expression suddenly turned very ugly... no, very awkward!

Gu Zhihao had returned from buying groceries; it was unclear how much he had heard, but he was now standing there with a livid expression.

He hurriedly explained, "Brother-in-law, don't listen to that crazy woman's nonsense. She's only saying this because she's jealous of my sister." He casually picked up a brick from the ground and threw it at Jiang Siwei.

A wise man doesn't fight when the odds are against him, so she hurriedly ran away.

Shi Liu had good intentions; he was afraid that Shi Yuke and her husband would develop a rift, so he specifically offered an explanation.

But some things really do just get worse the more you try to explain them.

"What exactly is going on?"

"Ah, what do you mean what's going on? That woman is just spouting nonsense; she's probably a lunatic." Shi Liu blurted out a lie.

When they first got married, Gu Zhihao had promised his father-in-law that he wouldn't dwell on his wife's past.

He had agreed not to dwell on it, but now he didn't even have the right to know.

His father-in-law kept his mouth shut about everything regarding Shi Yuke's past. He had heard a little bit from the neighbors, but they would only say a tiny bit before stopping; everyone was downplaying the serious and avoiding the important.

Gu Zhihao knew that Shi Yuke had been married before and had undergone plastic surgery, but he hadn't cared.

Originally, he thought that if things were in the past, they were in the past; one couldn't just keep dwelling on the past forever while living life, right?

But now, it didn't seem to be that way.

If it were just that she had been married, it would be nothing, but if there had been countless men... his heart felt as disgusted as if he had swallowed a fly.

The less he knew, the more he wanted to know.

Gu Zhihao did not dare to ask others, so he tentatively asked his father-in-law, but ended up nearly making his father-in-law sick with anger, as he was scolded directly for having no integrity.

……

Jiang Siwei left the Shi Family and went happily to find Shi Youxuan to claim credit!

Hospital.

She carried a basket of fresh fruit and held flowers to visit Cousin Xuan.

Jiang Siwei's current happy life was all thanks to Cousin Xuanxuan helping her despite past grievances, so she wanted to "repay kindness with gratitude," and everything she did at the Shi Family was, in her view, venting anger for Cousin Xuan.

"Xiaowei is here, sit."

Shi Youxuan was quite happy to see Jiang Siwei, complimenting her on her good complexion and improved taste in clothing.

She also asked about the child's recent situation, but Jiang Siwei was in no mood for small talk.

She felt that having done a "good deed," it should be known by others.

Thus, she deliberately steered the topic toward Shi Yuke.

"Cousin Xuanxuan, Shi Yuke is very miserable now, she really deserves it!"

"How do you know?" She was somewhat alert.

"Look, I filmed this."

When Jiang Siwei went to the Shi Family, she specifically brought a pinhole camera because she was afraid that without evidence, her cousin wouldn't believe her.
