Mrs. Wei thought for a moment and couldn't hold back, saying, "Why don't we go and ask Taohua and her family for help?"
Mr. and Mrs. Gu's eyes lit up.
They had actually forgotten about their eldest daughter-in-law.
In Pingchuan County, the eldest daughter-in-law was quite a figure; who wouldn't give her some respect?
When it comes to matters of life and death, the eldest daughter-in-law surely wouldn't stay out of it.
Mr. Gu planned to swallow his pride and visit Tong Huaqiong, but Mrs. Jia was unwilling.
"I would rather die than ask her... Now she's feeling triumphant, isn't she? Why wasn't it her son... why wasn't it her son..." Mrs. Jia ranted madly.
Mrs. Wei was dumbfounded; her mother-in-law hated the main branch so much that she didn't even care about her own son.
"If you don't ask Taohua's family, how will you save Ruinian? Don't you want Ruinian to come back?" Mrs. Wei said.
Mrs. Jia grabbed Mrs. Wei's hand and mumbled, "Right, right, saving Ruinian is the priority."
