Qin Lang, the Second Master of the Qin Family came in with Fu Shengying and Mrs. Fu.
The moment he entered the room, he saw Gu Weiwei standing next to the messy dining table, whilst the crying children’s Grandpa and Grandma were holding them next to her. They seemed very angry.
“Uncle Gan, what happened?”
Grandpa Gan pointed at Gu Weiwei. “This woman scalded Haohao with water and now the child is crying.”
Meng Ruya gloated. Although the Fu Family were here, the Gan Family were not to be trifled with either.
The two elders of the Gan Family loved this grandson deeply and they would not let this matter go.
“Is the child alright?” Qin Lang approached the crying child and asked Meng Ruya, “Did you call the doctor?”
“I have asked the servant to bring Doctor Li here,” Meng Ruya said.
Hearing their words, Mrs. Fu took a look at the reddened patch on the boy’s face.
“Was it boiling water? If it was, he would have lost a layer of skin!”
Having said these words, she turned to Gu Weiwei and asked, “What is going on?”
Gu Weiwei sighed helplessly. “I was pouring water for the milk when this child ran into me and some water splashed onto him.”
“You lying woman, the child said that you did it on purpose, and Miss Meng saw it with her own eyes, why are you still making up stories here?” Grandma Gan was holding her crying grandson, feeling both concerned and angry.
“Why would my daughter-in-law pour water over your grandson?” Mrs. Fu snapped back with a serious expression.
“Your… your daughter-in-law?” Mrs. Gan looked at Mrs. Fu and then at Gu Weiwei. “She is your… daughter-in-law?”
They had heard that Fu Hanzheng and Mrs. Fu were present, but they did not see her.
Could this evil woman be Fu Hanzheng’s wife?
“My grandson and granddaughter are hungry, so she came in to make the milk for them. Do you think that she is so free as to throw water at your grandson?” Mrs. Fu had one arm around Youyou and the other holding Gu Weiwei’s right hand that had turned red from the heat. She said, “Look, she spilt water on her own hands!”
“She may have scalded herself, but that doesn’t mean that she didn’t do it on purpose. The child said that she did it on purpose. She not only scalded him but also hit him.” Grandpa Gan defended his precious grandson and said with conviction, “Children never lie.”
Mrs. Fu gritted her teeth and said to Gu Weiwei.
“Hurry up and put your hand under some cold water, I will ask the Qin Family to get some burn cream.”
If Hanzheng was here, his heart would have ached at the sight
Gu Weiwei threw a look at her youngest daughter who was crying out of hunger.
So instead of dealing with the burn on her hand, she picked up the milk bottle from the floor. Luckily, the milk bottle was of good quality and it was not cracked.
She took the milk bottle and rinsed it in the kitchen, poured some more water and fed the milk to her crying daughter.
With the milk bottle in her hands, the girl stopped crying and started to drink from the milk bottle.
After coaxing her younger daughter, she shook the other bottle and gave it to her son.
When she was finished, she wiped her hands with a napkin and said to Grandpa Gan, Mrs. Gan and the crying boy, “Are you sure that your grandchild is not lying?”
