She just didn't expect to come back twenty days later. But why did their family appear here? She lives in a rented house, and the landlord is evicting her now.
The weather was hot, and Mrs. Gao was upset and angry. A group of people were pointing at her, making her more impatient. With her hands on her hips, she exclaimed, "You all urge me to be a better person, so why don't you practice what you preach? If you truly have that kindness, take back this child and care for it yourself!"
The crowd fell silent as soon as they heard this.
This child is pitiful, but their home is not spacious. If they want to take in this child, they must take in her father and brother. They don't have any vacancies in their house.
The people in the village are not rich; otherwise, who would do charity rather than earn it back?
Mrs Gao saw they had nothing to say, smiled mockingly, looked at her two juniors, and said impatiently, "What are you waiting for? Hurry up and throw it away before she dies. If it dies, this house will be worthless in the future."
The two women hurriedly carried the person out the door.
Mrs. Gao instructed, "Take it to the tree and place it there. If she dies at the door later, it will also bring bad luck to our family, you know?"
"OK."
Being told to die all the time, Murong Lingran couldn't bear it any longer, feeling that his strength had recovered a little, and just as he was about to open her eyes, she heard a familiar roar, "What are you doing!"
The crowd followed the sound and saw Murong Zhe and his son staring at the Gao family with split eyes and, at the same time, heaved a sigh of relief.
They were relieved that the father and son had arrived just in time.
Murong Lingran was overjoyed; it was Daddy's voice.
The two juniors of the Gao family noticed they appeared to be devouring Murong Lingran, so they quickly set her down and took a few steps back, feeling guilty.
Murong Zhe quickly approached to check on his daughter's breath and placed the back of his hand on her forehead. Seeing that it was the same as before, he felt relieved.
Mrs Gao noticed that the two of them returned without a trace of guilt on their faces, so she didn't take it too seriously. "It's just right that you came back. Take your daughter and leave; I won't rent you my house!"
Tian's face flushed with embarrassment; the child's father had entrusted her with his daughter, but she failed to meet her responsibilities.
"Lingran, her daddy, I'm so sorry, you gave me money to take care of her, but I..."
"Sister-in-law Tian doesn't have to blame herself, I understand."
She is a thin woman; how could she be able to compete with the obese Gao and the people she brought?
Murong Zhe was caught off guard when he returned home after two days to find his daughter thrown out. He signalled to his son to help her and glared at the Gao family. "Don't push your luck. Five days ago, you claimed that something had happened to your family and that you urgently needed money. You pressured me into giving you next month's payment. Now, after only a short time, you have discarded my daughter and our belongings while I was away. What are you trying to achieve? Are you trying to manipulate me for more money?"
There was an uproar by the villagers as soon as they heard this.
"What? If you want to drive people away and then ask them for money, isn't this cheating?"
"That's right since you have received the money, you are still throwing the patient out while the father and brother are not there. It's frustrating and shameless."
"I didn't expect Gao to be such a person. I misunderstood her before."
Since it was noon, most of the villagers were free, and there were many people around. At least a dozen people nodded in agreement.
