Chapter 110: Chapter 110 Who to Blame?

No one knows a daughter better than her mother. Aunt Ge sensed something and quickly chased after Ge Yun, holding her tightly while crying, "Ah Yun! You can’t be thinking of doing something rash! Your brother is gone, and your father and I only have you left... If something were to happen to you... your father and I wouldn’t want to live anymore..."

Ge Yun’s frail body began to tremble uncontrollably in Aunt Ge’s arms. The mother and daughter collapsed to the ground, hugging each other and crying, one shedding silent tears, the other wailing loudly.

It was truly an awkward scene.

Tu Hengsha thought about leaving the things at the Zhao family and just leaving. But, suddenly, the Zhao family’s door opened again, and this time, it was Zhao Jun who came out, holding a child...

When Ge Yun saw the child, her face, which had been lifeless with tears, suddenly regained some vitality, and she called out, "Ah Bao."

Behind Zhao Jun, Aunt Zhao also followed, anxiously jumping up and down, "Why did you bring Ah Bao out?"

Zhao Jun pushed the child towards Ge Yun.

Ge Yun immediately grabbed Ah Bao and cradled him. Aunt Zhao tried to step forward to snatch the child, but Zhao Jun blocked her with his arm.

"Get lost!" Zhao Jun’s face was covered with a dark hue, "Take your bastard child and get lost! Don’t ever let me see you again!"

"What are you talking about?" Aunt Zhao screamed, "Ah Bao is the grandson of our Zhao family! The only successor!"

"What successor! He’s an illegitimate child born to her and another man! The Zhao family would rather have no descendants than raise an illegitimate child!"

Ge Yun’s face turned ghostly pale, and a normally lifeless person suddenly trembled all over with anger, "Zhao Jun! You... you’re going too far! You’re speaking nonsense with a malicious heart!"

Zhao Jun coughed violently at first, his face turning purple, "Don’t think... that I don’t know! You and your illicit lover... weren’t you classmates? Even before we got married, your relationship wasn’t clean... treating me as a fallback guy... In your eyes, is that all I am, Zhao Jun?"

"No!" Ge Yun cried as tears fell incessantly, "I admit I wronged you! But you can’t say that about our son! He is your flesh and blood, I guarantee it 100%!"

"100% guarantee? Were you still a virgin when we got married? From the first day of marriage, I’ve been carrying a turtle shell of shame on my back... Just because I haven’t spoken about it doesn’t mean I don’t mind... Ge Yun, you dirty woman... you haven’t changed a bit before and after marriage... shamelessly promiscuous! I must have been blind... to marry you... and raise your illegitimate child!"

Ge Yun sat on the ground, holding her son, with despair as empty as ash in her eyes, yet still she cried and defended herself, "Yes, Zhao Jun, I, Ge Yun, am shameless, I owe it to you, I owe it to your Zhao family, but our son is innocent! I was classmates with him! But before our marriage, I had nothing dirty with him! If you don’t believe me, you can take Ah Bao for a paternity test! See if he’s truly your son or not!"

"No need!" Zhao Jun started another violent coughing fit, "With this body of mine, I can’t take any more of this... I’m a man... I know if he’s my child or not, don’t I? I only... only believe in what my own eyes see... Ge Yun... you were always wrong for sneaking around with other men! Hurry up and take your illegitimate child... and leave the Zhao family!"

Tu Hengsha could barely contain herself after hearing this. She stepped forward, wanting to speak, but Ronggui quickly pulled her back and shook his head at her.

She couldn’t quite agree with Ronggui’s attitude—what did he mean by that? She believed Ge Yun betrayed Zhao Jun, but she couldn’t believe that Ah Bao wasn’t Zhao Jun’s son! Ge Yun had the courage to propose a paternity test, which must mean that Ah Bao was definitely Zhao Jun’s child! What did he mean by saying he was a man and knew best? Shouldn’t one trust science? But Ronggui held her hand firmly and repeatedly glared at her with a suppressive weight, and considering the old scores she still owed him, she decided to wait a bit longer to see how things unfolded.

But by this point, Aunt Zhao could no longer hold back. As a mother, she believed in her son 100%. Thinking about the grandson she had cherished for years as if he were her own heart and soul—the sole heir of the Zhao family—not actually being of the Zhao family’s blood made her want to tear Ge Yun apart. In a fit of rage, she grabbed a large broom and swung it at Ge Yun, hitting both her and Ah Bao, "I’ll beat you to death! Beat you to death, you nasty woman!"

She continued beating and cursing, without caring whether she hit the child or not since, after all, he wasn’t the Zhao family’s grandson. Just some wild bastard, he deserved to be beaten to death!

A complete mess ensued.

Ge Yun had no more chance to explain. Fearing for her child, she shielded him completely in her arms, letting the broom fall on her own body. Aunt Ge, heartbroken over her daughter and grandson, cried out, "In-law, you can’t do this," while throwing herself over Ge Yun to take the beatings herself.

"Mom! Stop hitting! Stop hitting..." Zhao Jun’s rage attack ended, and he began to wheeze uncontrollably.

Aunt Zhao loved her son most of all, so she threw aside the broom to attend to him.

Zhao Jun looked at her, his eyes reddened too, "Mom, let’s go back inside. I don’t ever want to see these disgusting filthy people again."

"Alright, alright..." Aunt Zhao listened, tears streaming down her face, "From now on, it’s just the two of us relying on each other again, never seeing those people again! Once your compensation comes through, I’ll work hard again, earn a lot of money, and cure your illness. We’ll marry a good, clean, proper girl..."

Aunt Zhao comforted her son and herself as she helped him back into the house, closing the door.

Aunt Ge clutched her daughter and grandson, wailing, "What is this all about!"

Ge Yun, on the other hand, silently stood up with her son in her arms. Her thin, frail body, however, exuded a touch of resilience.

"Ah Yun..." Aunt Ge was especially worried that her daughter might consider doing something rash.

Yet Ge Yun gave a bitter smile, "One promised to take me away, to give me happiness, but in the end, he only wanted to deceive my body. I hid with Ah Bao in the county for three days, hiding until Ah Bao got sick and feverish, all to wait for him to take me away, only to end up with his mockery—turns out he was already bored. And another swore to treat me well all his life; before our wedding, he asked me to go to the riverside every day, grope me... but then the marriage had no red marks, and now he claims I wronged him before marriage... Men... I finally see through them! But who is to blame? Mom, who can we blame?"

"Blame... blame fate..." Aunt Ge had long accepted the notion of fate; her son died young, her daughter-in-law was unfaithful, her daughter was unfortunate. All was the meddling of fate.

"No, blame myself... blame my own foolishness..." Holding her son, her steps became much firmer, "Mom, don’t resent others, nor fate. After all, it is my own wrongdoings that got me here. Wrong is wrong, and I must face punishment for it. Perhaps this is my punishment; from now on, for Ah Bao, I must amend my ways, live better, become a good mother..."

Aunt Ge was afraid her daughter might not think straight. Upon hearing her daughter speak like this, she immediately responded excitedly, "Yes, yes, as long as you are well, everything will be fine... Your father and I can still work; we can afford to raise Ah Bao as a family. Let’s go back and live well."
