Not long after, the entire family hospital heard the good news. Zhao Xiulan went to the hospital and was indeed pregnant. Moreover, she was almost two months pregnant.
It was quite normal for this woman to be pregnant. Logically speaking, she would not tell anyone about it for the first three months. Unfortunately, with Liu Haiying's big mouth, it was impossible to hide it.
Most importantly, Liu Haiying could use the fact that Zhao Xiulan was pregnant to attack Kang Xiaoqiao. Now, everyone said that Kang Xiaoqiao's small body probably could not get pregnant.
It would have been fine if she had talked to someone else, but who would have thought that she was so bold? Or maybe she saw that Kang Daqiao was easy to bully. That day, she was chatting with a few Wilderness wives when she saw Kang Daqiao coming over from the ministry's small market.
So she licked her face and went forward to grab Kang Daqiao. She laughed so hard that she deserved a beating. "Hey, isn't this the Kang family's eldest sister? What did she go to buy?"
Kang Daqiao had always been easy to talk to. Although she didn't like Liu Haiying, she still said amiably, "There's no salt at home, and there's no soy sauce. I came over to add some soy sauce."
After saying that, she turned around and was about to leave. How could Liu Haiying let her go? She held onto Kang Daqiao and said, "Aiya, Sister Kang, what's the rush? You can talk a lot."
Kang Daqiao said unwillingly, "We're still waiting to cook at home--"
Before she could finish speaking, Liu Haiying grabbed her arm and said, "Aiya, Sister Kang is a person who knows how to live. Look, look. Ever since Sister Kang came, Kang Xiaoqiao has been saving a lot of effort. She doesn't need to do any work. She wears fancy clothes every day and dresses like a demon."
Kang Daqiao felt that something was wrong when she heard that. Was that a compliment?
But before she could open her mouth, Liu Haiying said loudly, "I heard that Vice-Captain Lu carved some kind of castle for her? He even made a big lantern for her. Aiya, tsk tsk, whose daughter-in-law has a comfortable life like hers?"
"This housework is done by my sister. She eats, drinks and plays every day, and men still dote on her--"
When Liu Haiying said that, the others also followed her and said, "That's right. If I had half of her comfortable life, I would be burning incense."
"That's right. As far as the eye can see, who in the entire family courtyard has a better life than her? It's just that the poor sister of the Kang family does this and that every day."
"That's right. How can there be a reason for a visiting relative to do this?"
"Who says there isn't?"
Everyone spoke one after another. At first, Kang Daqiao was quite happy when she saw that everyone was envious of her little sister. However, towards the end, Kang Daqiao became anxious. "Aiya, my little sister didn't let me do it. It was because I couldn't stay idle and insisted on doing it--"
When the others heard that, they immediately said, "Yes, yes, yes. Sister Kang, why are you so anxious? We all understand you. This golden nest and silver nest is not as good as your own dog's nest. If you don't work harder, how can you do it? Otherwise, you won't like to talk about it?"
"That's right. Tsk tsk, pitiful--"
When Kang Daqiao heard that, her face was filled with anxiety. "You all misunderstand. I volunteered for all of this. My little sister is very good to me. It's not like what you all said..."
At this moment, Liu Haiying curled her lips and said, "Sister Kang, we all know who Kang Xiaoqiao is. You're also a pitiful homeless person. We have our hands and feet. It's not a big deal to do some work. It's just that--"
After saying this, she whispered, "I heard that Vice-Captain Lu sleeps in the department every night?"
Kang Daqiao looked at Liu Haiying in a daze. Soon, Liu Haiying said, "Sister Kang, you are someone who has been married before. Why don't you understand this?"
"This Vice-Captain Lu sleeps in the department every day. How can they have a child if they are not together? Look at Zhao Xiulan and Kang Xiaoqiao who married one after the other. She is already more than two months pregnant."
"What kind of feelings does Vice-Captain Lu have for Kang Xiaoqiao? Everyone in the family courtyard knows about it. Logically speaking, the two of them are like glue. They should have been pregnant long ago. Could it be that Kang Xiaoqiao can't give birth?"
"Oh my god, this is a big deal. We have to treat this illness. While we are young, we can't hide from it. Doesn't everyone have to know about this sooner or later?"
"I say, Sister Kang, you have to go back and persuade--"
Before she could finish speaking, Liu Haiying's face was instantly slapped. Then, before she could react, Kang Daqiao fiercely grabbed her hair and beat her up. As she beat her up, she scolded, "Who did you say can't give birth? Who are you cursing? Say it again? Say it again?"
"I'll teach you to create rumors, I'll teach you to create rumors. See if I won't tear your mouth--"
Kang Daqiao's speed was too fast. Not only did Liu Haiying not react, even the Wilderness sisters-in-law beside her did not react.
Who would have thought that Kang Daqiao, who had always been honest and did not dare to speak loudly, actually had such a fierce side?
Liu Haiying was beaten up by Kang Daqiao until she cried out. The other Wilderness sisters-in-law also shouted to stop the fight. Instantly, the scene became chaotic.
At this moment, Kang Xiaoqiao was still cutting vegetables at home. She was thinking of making a home-cooked stew and a kung pao chicken. By now, most of the vegetables had been cut, but why hadn't the big sister who had gone to buy soy sauce and salt come back yet?
She had been gone for quite a while. Just when Kang Xiaoqiao was about to wash her hands and go out to take a look, a murderous scream came from the courtyard.
"Oh my god, little sister Xiaoqiao, hurry up and come out to take a look. Your big sister is fighting with someone."
Kang Xiaoqiao was shocked and hurriedly opened the door. "What?"
"My elder sister is fighting with someone?"
...
When Kang Xiaoqiao arrived at the scene, she was completely stunned. The scene was too tragic.
There were messy footprints all over the snow. Kang Daqiao was pulled by a few people, but she looked very angry. Soy sauce was scattered all over the ground.
If one was far away from the color, one would think that it was blood. Liu Haiying's hair was messy, and she sat on the ground with her clothes disheveled. She wailed and scolded, "None of you Kang sisters are good. Am I wrong?"
"Bah! If you can't have a child, you can't have a child. Look at how skinny she is. Does she look like she can have a child? Bah!"
"Only Vice-Captain Lu was coaxed by her and couldn't return to his home every day. He even said that she was avoiding suspicion. Bah! Bah! What do you mean by avoiding suspicion? That was Kang Xiaoqiao's little trick to cover up the fact that she couldn't have a child."
"What right do you have to hit me? You're just a slut that no one wants. Your mother wants you dead even though you're divorced. How can you still have the face to live? Bah!"
"If I were you, I'd just find a crooked tree cock and die. Save it, AH--"
Pa!
"You little slut, you actually hit me too. I don't want to live anymore, I'll fight it out with you--"
In the end, she was slapped again. Pa, pa, pa--
Liu Haiying was completely stunned by the slap. The blood in her mouth spurted out. The blood splattered on the spot, scaring the people who were trying to stop the fight so much that they screamed and took a big step back.
