AWB Chapter 260 Framed
Chapter 260 Framed
"You!" Zhou Daya was choked and glared at Zhou Ning fiercely. She was thinking about how to get back at him. When she turned her eyes, she saw her son sleeping peacefully in her arms, and a vicious idea formed in her mind.
Zhou Ning instinctively felt a chill, and the feeling became even stronger when he saw Zhou Daya's cold gaze.
Zhou Daya changed her expression and held her son higher with a smile: "I am a mother now, I won't bother with someone who can't lay eggs. Here, this is my son. Isn't he cute?"
To be fair, Zhou Daya's son was indeed adorable, but Zhou Ning had seen someone cuter, that was Song Yuanyuan. Perhaps because he was born prematurely, Zhou Daya's son looked skinny, and his face was not as round as Song Yuanyuan's when she was just one month old. However, Zhou Ning naturally would not say anything bad about the child in front of Zhou Daya, so he just responded lightly.
Zhou Daya seemed not to understand his perfunctory response. She sat up straight and held the child close to him. Zhou Ning's alarm bells rang and he immediately stepped back.
Zhou Daya changed to a tearful expression again, and cried sadly: "Does Ning Ge'er dislike my son? I know we are an orphan and a widow now, and we can't compare to your Song family, which is a wealthy family, but I just want Ning Ge'er to hold the child and share the joy. Maybe you will be pregnant when you go back."
The girls around him were also filled with indignation: "Zhou Ning, don't be so shameless. Your cousin is thinking about you. It's fine if you don't appreciate it, but you look disgusted. What does that mean?"
"That's right. A man still needs a child. The Song family is rich now. If you don't give birth to a child to win your man's heart, he might find someone who can give birth tomorrow. Let's see what you can do then."
The other round-faced girl had been silent until now, but after hearing this she also said a few words: "Ning, why don't you go hug your nephew? Look at this child, he's about to cry when he knows you hate him."
"Yes, yes, come and hug me. Your cousin got married not long ago and she gave birth to a boy. What a blessing it is, but you don't know how to enjoy it. The rest of us are still unmarried, so we don't want to compete with you for this blessing."
After she finished saying this, the girls around her all covered their mouths and giggled. Aunt Wang was almost furious when she heard this. Their words were implicitly criticizing Zhou Ning's childlessness. Aunt Wang was about to retort them, but she saw Zhou Ning reached out and pressed Aunt Wang's hand, motioning her to calm down.
Seeing that Zhou Ning did not refute, Zhou Daya thought he had given in, so she raised the child's hand higher, as if she would not put it down unless Zhou Ning took it.
Zhou Ning didn't think much about it when he saw her like this, but now she was so eager to let him hold the child, he knew there must be something wrong. Zhou Daya usually wanted to draw a line between herself and him, so why would she let him hold her son so easily at this moment? Therefore, he didn't say anything and didn't go forward to take the child.
Seeing that he was not going to be fooled, Zhou Daya felt more and more sore in her hands. The child seemed to be uncomfortable being held up and began to struggle slightly. Zhou Daya was so anxious that sweat broke out on her forehead, but the child kept making a fuss. Just when she was about to give up, Zhou Ning reached out and took the child.
However, at this moment, something unexpected happened. The child that Zhou Ning had been holding firmly suddenly fell to the ground for some reason, and Zhou Daya immediately let out a shrill scream.
The people around were also frightened and broke out in cold sweats, but what was strange was that the child suddenly stopped not far from the ground. Zhou Ning, who was closest to him, reacted the fastest and picked up the child almost instantly. The child didn't seem to be bumped, so he didn't cry. On the contrary, he might have thought that an adult was playing with him.
Zhou Ning held the child and quickly checked him, confirming that the child was not injured. Only then did he feel relieved.
But Zhou Daya refused to let him go. She accused Zhou Ning in a sharp voice of not holding the child properly, which caused the child to almost fall to the ground.
"Zhou Ning, how can you be so cruel? Return the child to me quickly. If anything happens to my son, I will kill you!"
Aunt Wang also reacted now. She knew Zhou Ning's character well. Besides, it was not like Zhou Ning had never taken care of a child in the Song family before. He had been holding his sister-in-law Song Yuanyuan since she was a child and had never seen him drop the child. Moreover, she had just stood beside Zhou Ning and saw it clearly. It was obvious that it was Zhou Daya who pulled Zhou Ning's hand, causing the child to lose balance and fall. Now Zhou Daya was turning the tables. If we talk about cruelty, she was the most cruel one. She actually used her own son to frame Zhou Ning.
As the person involved, Zhou Ning was the most angry. It is said that even a tiger will not eat its own cubs. In order to frame him, Zhou Daya was willing to gamble with her own son's life. She was really vicious. He would have to be crazy to return the child to such a vicious woman.
"Aunt, the child seems to be asleep, let's go find grandma."
Zhou Ning was about to leave when Zhou Daya yelled at him, "Zhou Ning, you bitch, give my son back to me!"
The girls next to them were also frightened just now. They were far away and couldn't see clearly. They only saw the child fall but not completely fall. At this time, seeing Zhou Daya's murderous expression, they subconsciously thought that it was Zhou Ning who didn't hold the child firmly, which caused the child to almost fall. Therefore, they glared at Zhou Ning and cursed him.
Zhou Ning turned a deaf ear to the curses. He held the child in his arms and coaxed him softly. Aunt Wang checked the child and found that he was just asleep, but he was probably woken up by the curses and opened his mouth to cry.
As if hearing the noise from inside, Aunt Zhou rushed in and shouted as soon as she entered the door: "What's the matter? I asked you to come and see the child, why are you quarreling?"
Seeing Aunt Zhou coming in, Zhou Ning took the initiative to say, "You should ask Zhou Daya what she wants to do. Or, if she is not satisfied with her current life and wants to return to the Li family, my husband can talk to the Marquis. If I ask my husband to beg the Marquis, maybe my sister can really step into the Li family."
After Zhou Ning finished speaking, there was silence all around, and Zhou Daya stared at Zhou Ning angrily.
At this moment, a man suddenly walked in from outside and greeted Aunt Wang with a smile as soon as he entered the door. Everyone turned to look and saw a young man with red lips and white teeth. He was wearing a dark red satin jacket embroidered with rabbits and bamboo leaves, with a smile on his face. Who else could it be but Song Chunlin.
"Sister-in-law, my brother asked me to ask you if you are done. I am hungry and want to eat."
