Chapter 51: The Trap of Maternal Love

At least we won't have to worry about being chased by zombies, and we can harvest nuclear cores. These are all resources."As for extremely cold weather, we are superhuman, our physiques are much stron...Five days later, Wan Guifen left the hospital with her daughter who had no blood relation to her. At that time, Wu Yong's face was a little awkward and embarrassed.

Because he saw Zhou Mengyu's husband Zhao Fenglin, the other party politely thanked Wu Yong in front of everyone and then focused all his attention on his wife.

When Wu Yong saw Zhao Fenglin, he already felt a sense of shame. Not only was the other party's height and appearance superior, but also his attire, proper manners, and overall bearing all demonstrated that he was not on the same level as him.

Wu Yong smiled somewhat reluctantly and politely explained:

"I went to high school with Zhou Mengyu, but we lost touch after she went to college. If it weren't for my wife also giving birth in this hospital, we wouldn't have run into each other!"

Then, it seems we have fate. I wonder if you're taken.

Zhao Fenglin had met all sorts of people, and at once he saw Wu Yong's discomfort, but he didn't show it. At that moment, things had happened so suddenly, indeed it was this unassuming man in front of him who had helped his wife.

No matter what his purpose is, the fact that he can say this now means he doesn't intend to make things difficult for the other party.

"My wife is doing well physically. She had an uncomplicated delivery of a baby girl who weighed four pounds and two ounces."

Wu Yong said with a smile.

Congratulations on your newborn baby girl! Meng Yusheng's daughter is also a girl.

"My daughter is great, she's my little cotton-padded jacket."

Wu Yong said from the heart.

My wife and daughter were discharged from the hospital today, so they left first.

Wu Yong didn't want to say much, so he offered his farewell first. The two men shook hands and then walked away separately, and that's how Xia Lian became Wu Yong and Wan Guifen's daughter.

Wan Guifen's purpose was very simple: she wanted her daughter to become someone of high status, having Wu Yong's love interest raise her daughter while Zhou Mengyu's daughter had to work under her.

At first, she didn't really care for the child. After her milk came in, and the swelling in her chest subsided, she just fed him whenever he cried, once after another. The baby, almost two months old, looked just like a newborn. He cried all night long, disturbing the neighbors.

Wu Yong was woken up by the noise and couldn't rest, so he volunteered to work the night shift, leaving Wan Guifen alone to look after the baby. Since it wasn't her own biological daughter, Wan Guifen naturally didn't care much. Little Rippling was almost crying herself hoarse, her face turning blue from being choked.

The results were reported by the neighbors, saying that their couple abused the baby because they gave birth to a daughter. They didn't feed or drink her, making the child cry all day long. The child looked like she was about to die.

The Factory Guard Department investigated the scene that day. They saw Wan Guifen, her face flushed red, and the frail infant who was barely breathing.

Now they were famous, Wu Yong and Wan Guifen, for their preference for sons over daughters. All within a day! At this time, Wu Yong was competing for the position of technical team leader. Because of this incident, he was called in for a talk by the section chief, and his chance to become team leader went up in smoke.

He then rushed home and had a big fight with Wan Guifen. He brought his own mother over to take care of the child, so at least the original owner didn't die young.

A mother-in-law relationship is a family dynamic that will never be harmonious. Although the arrival of the mother-in-law relieved Wan Guifen's burden of caring for her children, it also increased the family's expenses. Wu Yong's mother was a very shrewd old lady. She openly told the neighbors around:

"As this is the first time both of them are becoming parents, it's natural for them to make some mistakes. As an elder, I naturally want to lend a helping hand. Besides, by helping them with the child, I also ease their burden. They can at least come home to a hot meal after a day of work."

"Money As a mother, how could I take my child's money It's enough to just feed them and raise them. Our Wu family doesn't discriminate between boys and girls. The saying goes, "Flowers first, then fruits." As long as the young couple has a good relationship and I'm physically able, we'll naturally help take care of another child."

The old woman's actions somehow turned the rumor that the couple didn't care about their daughter into a story about new parents not knowing how to raise children. She put herself and her child through a lot of trouble, which led to misunderstandings among the neighbors.

After this incident, Wan Guifen completely stopped abusing the child. She knew in her heart that the child had nothing to do with Wu Yong, but could she say it If she dared, Wu Yong's mother would tear her apart. In the old woman's eyes, although Wu Lianyi was a girl, she was still part of the Wu family, and there was no reason for Wan Guifen to dislike her.

After the child turned one year old, the grandmother also raised the child to be plump and healthy. The grandmother was an experienced and intelligent person with high emotional intelligence. She suppressed Wan Guifen completely. As her mother-in-law, she had the support of coworkers from the same factory. Any slight change would be known by everyone in the factory the next day. Therefore, Wan Guifen changed her strategy.

If her child gets too thin, she'll be scolded by the old lady and accused of favoring boys over girls, abusing her child. So, she'll fatten her child up. She also learned a trick from palace dramas called "spoiling," and she doesn't believe anyone will have anything to say about it anymore.

This tactic still worked. As Wu Lianyi's weight continued to increase, the old woman stopped criticizing her. People around her also stopped talking about it. Two years later, Wan Guifen became pregnant again and gave birth to a boy this time.

Having her own child, she naturally wanted to give her son the best. However, she didn't want the carefully cultivated image of a good mother she had built to collapse, so on the surface, she still prioritized her eldest daughter. In private, though, her son was the one who received all of her love.

Human genes are quite amazing. Under Wan Guifen's "doting," Wu Lianyi didn't grow crooked, and her academic performance was excellent, leaving Wu Junyi in the dust.

If I am inferior to others, does that mean my children are also inferior This thought drove Wan Guifen to the brink of madness!

And Wu Lianyi slowly opened it, with a touch of Zhou Mengyu's shadow. Sometimes Wu Yong would look at his daughter and furrow his brow in astonishment. This immediately alerted Wan Guifen, who then began the process of raising her daughter to be plump.

As for the love from his mother, the original owner naturally couldn't refuse it. Over time, he grew into a big fat man. Because of his weight, he lost Zhou Mengyu's shadow and completely eliminated the crisis.

And Wan Guifen noticed that her child had entered puberty and started to be concerned about her figure and appearance, becoming sensitive and insecure. However, she acted as if she knew nothing, still bringing delicious food and drinks to Wu Lianyi's face, and constantly brainwashing her, saying she wasn't fat.

When the original body was eating weight loss pills uncontrollably, she pretended not to know and didn't stop her. Only when the original body ended up in the hospital did she put on a show, letting everyone know how much she loved her daughter. She claimed that no matter how fat her daughter was, she was still the best. She emphasized that weight loss harms the body and as a mother, she would never want her daughter to do it.

From then on, Wu Lianyi completely fell into the trap of "maternal love," spending her short life and dying without ever knowing who her biological parents were.

"Is Wan Guifen crazy She's done such a wicked thing! Using an innocent child to get revenge on her cheating husband. Even I, the great ancestor, am astonished."mall body pressed closer to the silken cloth, he murmured softly:""Mommy, I'm scared.""Don't be afraid, don't be afraid! Mommy is here."Wu Yong slumped dejectedly on the sofa and said to Wu Junyi:"You...
