The errant mother even went as far as deliberately conceiving the second child solely for the purpose of selling it.
Huang, 26, is originally from Guangxi province in southern China and only has a primary school education.
She later moved to Fuzhou, Fujian province, in southeastern China and made a living doing odd jobs.

Sex, lies and video games: China's heated debate over sexism, misogyny
A young woman expelled from university for having sex with a foreigner. A man jailed for raping his fiancée after paying her the bride price. And a video game portraying women as gold diggers. Advertisement These are among the cases fuelling heated debate, and outrage, on Chinese social media in recent months over sexism, misogyny and gender stereotypes. The discussion started in April when a court in Datong, Shanxi province upheld the guilty verdict and three-year prison sentence of a man who had raped his fiancée the day after they got engaged. The case centred on whether the bride price he paid of 100,000 yuan (US$13,900) and a gold ring was considered marital consent and a tacit agreement for sex. In June, there was anger over stereotyping and sexism after a Chinese online game originally called Revenge on Gold Diggers shot to the top of gaming platforms on day one. Advertisement Players of the game are male characters being pursued by manipulative women who only want one thing: their money. The backlash prompted the game's creators to change the name to Emotional Anti-Fraud Simulator the day after its release.

Lost China diver survives 5 days underwater, lives on cave fish until rescued
A Chinese diver miraculously survived five days and nights trapped in an underwater cave, leaving netizens in disbelief and shock. The incident unfolded on July 19, when Wang, a diving enthusiast in his 40s from Furong Town in Xiangxi, Hunan province, central China, went missing just five minutes into a river dive with a friend. The river runs several dozen metres deep, with the entrance to an intricate cave system located around nine metres below the surface. Emergency rescue teams prepare to make a deep dive in search of Wang. Photo: Handout Police immediately launched a search operation and sought help from the Xiangxi Shuguang Rescue Team and special police forces from the city of Baise in the Guangxi autonomous region of southern China. A cave diving team from Baise's special forces carried out two deep dives into the cave, but initial searches proved unsuccessful. During the second dive, rescuers heard what sounded like someone knocking on rocks. They immediately instructed the surface team to shut off the boat engines to improve listening conditions, but the sound did not return.
