Chapter 5 — Mother-in-law Trick Me into Raising Tieu Tam's Son

However, she didn't know Vuong Dao until after graduating, but from the third year of university she was taken care of by him. Ton Thien Thien was originally a beautiful girl, but blindly loved money. After learning that Vuong Dao still had no children, in order to be able to enjoy a life of material luxury for a long time, she decided to take a shortcut — by giving birth to Vuong Dao's child. Once you have children, your mother will be your precious child and you will be able to rely on her for the rest of her life to live happily without worries. According to Thanh Thanh, Ton Thien Thien had been pregnant twice before, but after the ultrasound showed that the pregnancy was female, she coldly aborted it without any hesitation. It was not until her third pregnancy, when it was determined that the fetus was male, that she was satisfied and felt secure in nurturing the fetus and preparing to give birth. When Vuong Dao learned that Thien Thien was finally pregnant with a son, he was so happy that he couldn't hide his joy and immediately secretly bought her a luxury apartment.

But the joy was short-lived, and soon Vuong Dao began to worry about the baby's household registration. As a person who deeply cherishes men and despises women, he is of course unwilling to let his son register with his mother's family name - much less does he want his son to be known as an "illegal son". However, a man like him who relies on women for his living does not have enough name or legitimate reason to bring the child home, much less dare to openly admit to an illegitimate child. Right at that moment, when Vuong Dao was confused and didn't know what to do, I - the righteous wife - suddenly announced her pregnancy. Actually, when I found out I was pregnant, I was completely stunned. For a strong and career-focused woman like me, having children was never in my life plan. But after thinking for a long time, I finally felt that this child coming to me must be fate, a gift from fate. So I decided to have a baby. When he learned of my decision, Vuong Dao laughed so much that he couldn't close his mouth. Because Ton Thien Thien and I were pregnant not long before each other, our pregnancy times were almost the same, even the due date was only a few days different. Because he didn't know whether I was a boy or a girl, he didn't dare to act rashly, and he couldn't risk changing the child or blatantly swapping positions. Anyway, for a person like Vuong Dao, the more sons he has, the more proud and beneficial he will feel. I guess, after that, Vuong Dao must have told this whole story to his whole family. The whole group of people sat down and "suggested a plan", and finally came up with a way to use hypnosis on me. In this way, not only did Vuong Dao have the right to raise his son by his side, but it also made me mistakenly recognize that child as my biological son. Waiting until I pass away, that child will naturally become the heir to my estate — truly killing two birds with one stone. Because Ton Thien Thien's due date was a few days earlier, she gave birth first. To make the plan go smoothly, when I was about to give birth, Vuong Dao deliberately took me to a private hospital. After I successfully gave birth to my daughter, the whole family immediately began the process of "brainwashing" and hypnotizing me.

"Wife, what are you thinking? Quickly sit down, let me take a closer look at my son. Hey, I remember the boy wants to die now..."

After helping me sit down on the sofa, Vuong Dao immediately hurriedly hugged the son born to Ton Thien Thien, his face was happy as if he was about to laugh from ear to ear, hugging and caressing the baby lovingly. On the contrary, when looking at the little daughter I gave birth to, my mother-in-law just nonchalantly placed her in the crib, a disgusted look on her face.

“Husband, do you not like girls, you only like boys, right?”

I spoke slowly, my eyes following Vuong Dao - who was smiling with his eyes wide open, his face beaming, hugging the other boy. Perhaps my question woke him up. After hearing this, Vuong Dao immediately regained his expression, awkwardly put the child down, then awkwardly turned his head to look at me.

“Wife, there is no such thing. Isn't favoring men over women a thing of decades ago? He only saw that his son was healthier and felt more secure when holding him. Girls are soft and weak, I'm afraid of hurting her. You see, just because of a small thing, you're thinking nonsense..."

I remained silent, didn't say a word, just quietly listened to every sentence he tried to justify. Perhaps to prove something - or maybe he felt that the atmosphere was starting to feel strange - Vuong Dao immediately walked over to the cradle, forced a forced smile, then picked up my daughter and began to sing a forced lullaby. Even though I said something to test him like that, in reality, I never meant to let Vuong Dao get close to my daughter. A traitor, a liar, and a dirty person like him—what qualifications does he have to be her father?

“Husband, look at me, I'm just joking but I believe it's true. You're right, girls are really softer, it's better to let me hold the baby. What if you don't pay attention and hurt her?"
