Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Song Yan still remembered how Xia Wan had made Xia Ru soak in feces, causing her to be afraid to go out. So, if she could make fun of Xia Wan, she would definitely be as impolite as she could. In front of everyone, she acted like Li Jin was good to Xia Wan, and Xia Wan was the one who was not satisfied.
Chen Lian heard about Xia Wan selling clothes from Xia ye and added, “Xia Wan, you have your own work to do now. You’re still young, and there are still many days for you to earn money. Mother is old, so how can you ask for money from her? if something happens to mother, she won’t have the money to treat her illness.
“Say what you want to say. Why are you cursing me?’ Li Jin thought as she glared at Chen Lian. However, as long as she could avoid paying Xia Hails medical fees, she would just have to bear with Chen Lian for now. She would slowly teach her the rules when she got home.
Sensing Li Jin’s gaze, Chen Lian realized that she had said something wrong. But fortunately, Li Jin didn’t intend to argue with her. He clearly understood that their common enemy was Xia Wan’s family.
In short, they could not pay for Xia Hail s medical expenses. As for how to solve the problem, it would depend on Xia Hail s family. If it really did not work, they had the village head next to them, right? They could ask the village head to ask the villagers to lend money to Xia Hai. After all, they did not care.
Xia Wan looked at song Yan and Chen Lian coldly and retorted, “Don’t the two aunties always ask my mom to help you with work? According to what you said, we’re a family, so it’s only right for us to care for each other when something happens.
“Now that my father is sick, can your two families also take out some money to help pay for my father’s medical expenses?”
“Don’t worry, aunties. Take it as a loan from my family. After my father recovers, my brother will find a job and pay you back slowly. You’ll be able to pay it off in about two years.
“If you’re afraid that we’ll go back on our word, we can write you a contract.
The village head is here, and everyone can be our witness. We won’t owe you.” Song Yan and Chen Lian only felt bad luck. They wouldn’t have followed Li Jin here if they had known that Xia Wan’s family couldn’t even afford the medical expenses.
Originally, they had only come to check on Xia Hai’s injuries, and at the same time, hoping to give the impression to the village chief that they were not that cold and heartless.
However, she did not expect to have to foot Xia Hails medical bills after coming to the hospital.
Song Yan immediately found an excuse and said, “When my Xia Ru was sick, I even helped her find a few prescriptions. It cost me a lot. Also, my Xia Ru has just recovered, and she’s taking a few days off. The factory won’t pay her for these off days. My family doesn’t have any money.”
Chen Lian quickly added, “My son eats a lot. He usually spends twice as much as the ordinary person. My daughter is still in school. She needs to buy textbooks and new clothes. Our family doesn’t have any money.”
Song Yan and Chen Lian were afraid that Xia Wan would ask them for money, so they quickly used the child as an excuse.
When Xia Wan heard what they said, she had already expected this result.
Because of the commotion, and the fact that the hospital was already full of people, it quickly attracted the attention of others. After listening to a few words of their conversation, everyone understood that the woman’s son was sick and hospitalized. However, the woman clearly took her son’s monthly salary but did not have the money to pay his operation fees.
Some people couldn’t stand it anymore, so they looked at Li Jin and said, “I’ve already given you your son’s salary. Now that he’s sick and needs to be hospitalized, who will pay if not you?”
“I’ve heard of unfilial sons, but I didn’t expect a mother to be so heartless. You don’t even care about your own son. Do you want him to die in the hospital?”
Li Jin glared back at them. “What do you guys know? We are completely out of money.”
Li Jin took out 300 yuan from her pocket and handed it to Xia Wan.
“Didn’t your father say that he wanted to move out? it just so happens that your father is sick now, and we really can’t take out any money. Take this 300 yuan and buy whatever you can. From today on, we’ll move out of the family.
“After that, your family’s wellbeing has nothing to do with me..”
