Chapter 1650: Not Going To Be Taken Advantage Of

Could Sun Guohong bear to see his mom lose all dignity so much so that she would no longer be able to live in this village?

“Secretary, why are you making such a joke on such a joyous occasion? Guohong could not possibly have made such a call. Look at the villagers. They all believe what you just said.” Mother Sun herself got a huge shock, but she did not believe that Sun Guohong would disobey her like that.

Since he was young, Sun Guohong had always listened to his mom. When his father was still around, Sun Guohong was most obedient to his father. Now that his father was no longer around, Sun Guohong listened well to her.

The child in Yanyan’s stomach was Guohong’s own nephew! There was no reason for him to dislike him. Besides, Yanyan was a fiancée that Guohong had picked out for himself. She had organized this wedding for Guohong and Yanyan without even asking for a single cent from Guohong. She was doing it for free! Guohong should be rejoicing over this. She did not believe that he would disrespect her by saying such things that would only serve to embarrass her.

“What do you mean it’s not true? This is exactly what Guohong said.” The secretary was not blind. The moment he said those words, those of the Sun family’s expressions looked strange, especially the new bride Yanyan, who was shaking and trembling. Even a blind man would be able to feel Yanyan’s fear. If Yanyan did not have a guilty conscience, would she have such a reaction?

“Guohong’s mom, let me ask you. If the child in Yanyan’s stomach is not Guohong’s, then whose is it? Everyone was still wondering how Yanyan managed to get pregnant with Guohong’s child when you guys came back within a month of leaving. You’re someone who has given birth to two children. What kind of woman can immediately find out about her pregnancy within a month? I’ve calculated the timings for you, starting from the very day you guys left the village. Based on what you’ve said, you really wasted no time at all. While Yanyan was still traveling, she already got pregnant with Guohong’s child? Pray tell me how Guohong managed to impregnate Yanyan. Through a dream?”

Yanyan was not only one month pregnant. By the time Mother Sun found out about it, Yanyan was already two months pregnant. In addition to the month that they were away visiting Sun Guohong, Yanyan would soon be four months pregnant, and her belly would be showing.

Because Yanyan had already been pregnant for a while, Mother Sun had intentionally made her calculations on the timings so as to make it seem as though Yanyan had only gotten pregnant after visiting Sun Guohong.

But a lie was still a lie and could not withstand scrutiny. Once the secretary did his own calculations, the question of Yanyan’s pregnancy was now out in the open.

“Let me ask you again. Whose child is that in Yanyan’s stomach?” The secretary’s expression darkened. No matter how much Mother Sun disliked Sun Guohong, she was still closer to him than Yanyan was. Not only was Sun Guohong Mother Sun’s biological son, but it was also only because of Sun Guohong that the Sun family’s life had improved drastically over the years. It was Sun Guohong’s salary that had sustained them all these years. Yanyan’s existence was just an additional cost to Sun Guohong.

Even knowing that the child in Yanyan’s stomach was not Sun Guohong’s, Mother Sun was still able to joyfully organize a wedding for Yanyan, and even address the child in her stomach as her eldest grandson! The only possibility was that the child in Yanyan’s stomach was indeed Mother Sun’s grandson, but the child’s father was Sun Guoming!

The secretary thought about how Sun Guoming had already gotten engaged with his daughter, but Sun Guoming had done something to wrong his daughter even before their marriage. Sun Guoming had not only gotten into an affair with his own sister-in-law but had also gotten her pregnant, and he was even trying to push the blame to Sun Guohong! At this, the secretary was incensed. “All the villagers heard your previous words. The child in Yanyan’s stomach is your eldest grandson. I don’t know about anything else, and neither will I ask. Today, I’ll end with this. Let’s call off the engagement between our Nier and Sun Guoming. When the two of them got engaged, we received quite a lot of things from you. We’ll return every single item to you.”

With that said, the secretary left in a huff.

If anything were to happen in the village in the future, Mother Sun would never get to take advantage of her status as his in-law. What a joke! The only normal one in the Sun family was their son, Guohong. Unfortunately, Old Sun had died early. Otherwise, Old Sun could still take control and rein in this mess of a family.

“No, secretary. Listen to me. This is a misunderstanding. It’s all a misunderstanding. The child in Yanyan’s stomach is really Guohong’s! Guoming has such a great relationship with your Nier. It’s too much of a pity to separate the two of them. Besides, they’re already getting married next year. How can you make them break up now? I don’t agree! It’s a misunderstanding. It’s just a misunderstanding! Secretary, don’t listen to Sun Guohong’s nonsense. He’s just being a brat. He dared to do it but he doesn’t dare to admit to it. That child in Yanyan’s stomach is really Sun Guohong’s!”

Mother Sun was angry and anxious all at the same time, and she ran after the secretary. How could she just let Sun Guoming’s secretary father-in-law run off just like that?

Mother Sun knew that Sun Guoming’s health was not as good as Sun Guohong’s ever since he was young. As such, she wanted Sun Guohong to take good care of Sun Guoming. But it would all depend on Sun Guohong’s conscience as to how much he would take care of his younger brother when she was gone.

So instead of relying on others, she decided to do something on her own. There was no way she could bear to let Sun Guoming join the military like Sun Guohong. As for doing something else, Sun Guoming’s academic results had never been stellar and could not even compare to Sun Guohong’s in the past. Since he was talented in neither literary nor military aspects, the only thing that Sun Guoming could show was his literacy. In a village with a whole bunch of illiterates, Sun Guohong was considered to be highly educated.

Mother Sun had the idea that Sun Guoming could ride on Sun Guohong’s laurels and become a party cadre in the village. Then, even when she was gone and even if Sun Guohong only took care of his own family, Sun Guoming’s life would not be too bad either.

Coincidentally, the Sun family had caught the eye of the secretary, who had a daughter, and the two young ones had clicked immediately. The secretary was not young and would retire in a few years’ time. Mother Sun knew that as long as the secretary was willing to take on her son and help out, her son would inherit the position of secretary in the village.

Who cared whether the villagers had to vote? The villagers all trusted in the secretary. As long as the secretary backed Sun Guoming up and vouched for him as a good comrade, there was no way the villagers would oppose or not pick Sun Guoming as their next secretary.

But now, if Sun Guoming’s marriage with the secretary’s daughter were to fall through, then Mother Sun’s efforts would all be in vain, and her plan would fail. Without the secretary as a father-in-law, there was no way Sun Guoming would join the core leadership of the village with his own capabilities, let alone become the secretary.

“I don’t care about that!” The secretary was annoyed by Mother Sun. Thankfully, Guohong was honest and did not think that his family’s dirty linen should not be aired in public. Otherwise, his daughter, Nier, might even get married to Sun Guoming and give birth to his child before finally finding out that Yanyan’s child was actually Sun Guoming’s as well. If that day were to come, their family would have no choice but to accept it. The more infuriating part was that Sun Guoming would still be his son-in-law and his grandchild’s father. And because of that, he would have no choice but to support Sun Guoming and help him rise up to hold the secretarial position.
