Chapter 8 — Mother-in-law Tests Daughter-in-law's Heart

“The family is waiting outside.” “She's pregnant.” “We know.” The door slammed shut. Tran Nghien stood rooted to the spot, Ninh Uyen's cold sweat still in his palm. When Ton Que Phan chased her into the emergency room hallway, she was breathing heavily. As soon as she saw Tran Nghien, she opened her mouth first: "Don't look at me like that." "How did you know it would end up like this?" Tran Nghien slowly turned his head. "I don't know?" His voice was so low that it was almost inaudible. "I said it before we got married." "On the day of our engagement I said it." "After we got married I also said it." "She said it herself no less than once." Ton Que Phan moved his lips: "Mom just say it." thought..." "What did you think?" Tran Nghien took a step forward. "You thought she was pretending?" "So you brought her and the baby out for a test?" Ton Que Phan was so cornered that his back was pressed against the wall. In the hallway, someone turned to look. She felt embarrassed, tears came immediately. "I am your mother!" "I worked hard to raise you, now because of a woman you talk to me like that?" Tran Nghien stared at her. "She is your wife." "There is also your child inside." Ton Que Phan's crying stopped. The emergency room door suddenly opened. The nurse quickly walked out. "Who is the family?" Tran Nghien immediately stepped forward. "I am her husband." The nurse handed him a piece of paper. "The patient has a serious allergic reaction, which needs immediate treatment." "In addition, the obstetrics department has consulted, the heart is currently unstable." Tran Nghien's hand trembled. Ton Que Phan's face was pale, without any blood left. She held on to the wall, her lips trembling: "What do you mean it's not stable?" The nurse glanced at her. "Stop asking around, just sign the paper." Tran Nghien's hand holding the pen could barely hold it. Just as he bowed his head to sign, from the emergency room came the sound of rapid footsteps. Right after that, someone shouted: "Call the dean over here quickly."07 When Tran Nghien signed, the tip of the pen drew a thick black line on the paper. The nurse pulled out the paper, turned around and ran inside. The emergency room door closed again, white light shining through the door like a cold string. Ton Que Phan leaned against the wall, his face pale. Her lips moved a few times before she forced out a sentence: "Why is this so serious?" Tran Nghien did not look at her. He stared at that door, his voice like hissing through his teeth. "Because she's really allergic." Ton Que Phan's eyes immediately turned red. "Mom, you don't know." Tran Nghien finally turned his head. "You don't know, or do you not believe it?" Ton Que Phan was asked by him and made him take a half step back. The hallway was bustling with people, the cart wheels rolling across the floor made a shrill screeching sound. She suddenly lowered her voice. "I just want to try to see what happens." "Whose daughter-in-law can't eat this and can't touch that as soon as she walks in the door?" "I'm afraid that in the future she will use the excuse of children and health to control her." Tran Nghien's eyes gradually turned cold. "So I used chives to test her."
