After a chubby wife with a child undergoes a remarkable transformation, her beauty becomes the talk

Gu Xiao raised his leg and kicked him to the ground with a powerful kick.

"Ouch!"

Zhang Chenggang curled up on the ground, wailing in pain, his voice almost drowning out Gu Xiaohua, who was giving birth inside the room.

"Force can't solve this scumbag's problem at all," Shen Lu shouted at Gu Youcai.

"Brother, go find someone from the Women's Federation, have them get a notarized divorce right now, and then sue him for intentional homicide."

Gu Youcai's colleagues also arrived at this time.

"You control him!"

The two men communicated, one tying Zhang Chenggang up while the other went to find the Women's Federation.

While helping to boil water, Gu's mother pondered for a moment, and then cautiously spoke to Shen Lu.

"He's already admitted his mistake. Husband and wife shouldn't hold grudges overnight. This isn't a good thing..."

"Your daughter is going to die because of him!" Shen Lu couldn't help but shout at Gu's mother.

Even though she knew that this was how society was and that she was powerless to change it, Shen Lu was still angered by Gu's mother's words.

Although they are both women, Gu Xiaohua is still the flesh and blood of her mother's womb.

How could she say such cold words!

Zhang Chenggang was truly terrified this time. He knelt on the ground and kept begging Gu Youcai for mercy.

"I really know I was wrong. I promise I'll treat Gu Xiaohua better from now on. Please give me another chance. I'm the only son in the Zhang family, I absolutely cannot go to jail!"

Gu Youcai acted as if he hadn't heard anything and walked towards the door.

Seeing that begging for mercy was useless, Zhang Chenggang tried to escape. He seized the opportunity to knock Gu Youcai, who was holding him, aside and ran towards the door.

Before he could run more than a few steps, Gu Youcai caught him with lightning speed.

"Let me go, you fucking let me go!"

Zhang Chenggang struggled and shouted, even trying to bite Gu Youcai, but Shen Lu stuffed a rag into his mouth.

"If you don't want to be childless, then behave yourself!" Shen Lu glared at him fiercely.

Gu Youcai found a ball of hemp rope at home and tied him up tightly.

Just then.

"Who dares to touch my son!"

The weathered voice sounded like sandpaper as an elderly woman, leaning on a cane, shakily walked into Gu Xiaohua's mother-in-law's house.

Her legs are bowed, a condition caused by frequent childbirth and not taking proper postpartum care.

Upon hearing the sound, Zhang Chenggang shuddered, as if he had found his pillar of support, and looked towards the gate.

"mother!"

A heartfelt call made the old woman quicken her pace.

"My son, whoever dares to treat you like this, I, as their mother, will never forgive them."

The old woman tossed aside her cane and knelt down to untie the ropes binding Zhang Chenggang.

Gu Youcai tied the knot tightly, and the old woman couldn't untie it no matter how hard she tried.

"If you have a problem, come at me! Let go of my son!"

The old woman gritted her teeth, raised her cane, and threw it fiercely towards the crowd, her sharp, triangular eyes filled with malice.

"Locking a pregnant woman in your house is tantamount to killing her. This is intentional homicide, a crime!"

Shen Lu took a deep breath and questioned him sharply.

"Isn't this just punishing a hen that can't lay eggs? Of the three unfilial acts, the greatest is having no offspring. In ancient times, a woman like this would have been drowned in a pig cage!"

Zhang's mother looked completely justified and showed no remorse whatsoever.

It was as if Gu Xiaohua was not a person to her, but a breeding tool.

Whether it's right or wrong isn't up to you to decide; it depends on what the police station says.

Gu Youcai was too lazy to waste words with Zhang's mother, so he picked up Zhang Chenggang and walked outside.

Upon hearing this, Zhang's mother became anxious. Remembering that she was her son's only support, she turned around and stood in front of Zhang Chenggang, holding Gu Youcai and Zhang Chenggang tightly.

"You want to take my son? Fine, you'll all have to step over me."

Shen Lu understood; with a mother like that, it was no wonder Zhang Chenggang acted that way.

Shen Lu stepped forward and restrained Zhang's mother, while Gu Youcai helped Zhang Chenggang walk outside.

Zhang Chenggang turned to look at his mother as if to offer some comfort.

"Mom, don't worry, they have no evidence. I'll be out soon."

Upon hearing this, Gu Youcai became furious and kicked Zhang Chenggang in the back of the knee, causing Zhang Chenggang to buckle and kneel on the ground.

These words suddenly made Shen Lu realize something.

"etc."

Punishing Zhang Chenggang is not the ultimate goal, nor will it bring any benefit to Gu Xiaohua. This kind of crime cannot be proven, and at most, she will be released after being imprisoned for two or three months.

Moreover, this era is ridiculously tolerant of men.

Their ultimate goal should be to keep these scumbags away from Gu Xiaohua and the children, and to ensure their future livelihood.

Everyone turned to look at Shen Lu, wondering what she was going to do.

Shen Lu asked directly.

"Who was that pregnant woman you were with at the city hospital?"

Deep in Shen Lu's memory, she did see Zhang Chenggang with a pregnant woman, but Shen Lu in the past didn't care whether he was cheating or not, so she forgot about it in the corner of her memory.

Zhang Chenggang's eyes widened. How could Shen Lu know about this? He had kept it a secret so well!

"She...she's my friend..." Zhang Chenggang stammered as he explained, his lack of confidence betraying him.

"The child in her belly is yours, isn't it!" Shen Lu pointed out the truth incisively.

"Don't talk nonsense!" Zhang Chenggang reacted violently, like a mouse whose tail had been stepped on.

"I've seen you two being intimate more than once. Whether the child in her belly is yours or not, we'll know when it's born," Shen Lu fabricated.

"If you don't want me to expose all of this to your workplace, you should sign a divorce agreement with Gu Xiaohua now, sever all ties with the child, and compensate her with 1,000 yuan and the house in the city."

Zhang Chenggang's eyes widened. If Shen Lu were to report this to his superiors, he would be labeled as having illicit relationships, and would definitely be fired and sent to a remote area to suffer.

She's already eight months along and will give birth soon. He'll soon have a son, and we can't afford any accidents at this crucial moment.

The house was originally arranged by Gu Xiaohua's work unit and wasn't worth much.

Although a thousand yuan was his salary for two or three years, it didn't seem so unacceptable compared to his son and his job.

Zhang's mother was still shouting that they absolutely could not give them money.

Zhang Chenggang had already nodded.

"I'll give you a thousand dollars and give up the house. You'll just have to keep this to yourselves."

Zhang's mother was so angry that she pounded her chest and stamped her feet. That was a whole thousand yuan, and all she got was this worthless child who couldn't lay eggs.

Shen Lu turned around and went back into the inner room. After comforting Gu Xiaohua, she found a pen and paper and wrote a written agreement.

Zhang Cheng took a long time to sign and put his fingerprint on the document, and Gu Youcai went with him to town to collect the money.

Shen Lu stayed with Gu Xiaohua.

Gu's mother, who had been standing aside the whole time, suddenly became incredibly enthusiastic and devoted herself to serving Gu Xiaohua.
