Lin Wan sighed in frustration, she actually overslept at this mont.
Feeling guilty, Lin Wan still quickly ate a few bites of food. She originally wanted to call her dad but didn’t know his number, so she gave up and hurriedly locked the door and went downstairs to head to the hospital.
"The doctor said, even if Mom wakes up, her legs are still immobile. Treating her won’t make much of a difference, it’d be better to take care of her at ho."
"What the doctor said was just a guess earlier, right now it’s still uncertain. If treatnt can help, we’ll definitely try our best to treat her."
When Lin Wan took the bus to the hospital, she heard her first aunt and second aunt talking in the hallway, and imdiately slowed her steps.
"If we can treat her, we’ll surely give the old lady the treatnt she needs. But we can’t cure her, can we? You’ve seen this yourself, in just a few days, we’ve already spent over one thousand yuan. According to the doctor, she might have to stay here for another month or two, which will cost a fortune. It’s absolutely a bottomless pit. I think we should discuss with the n, once Mom wakes up, we should tell them to take her ho to recuperate," Zhang Huilan said, her eyes darting.
"Sister-in-law, what’s there to discuss? Their sons definitely wouldn’t agree. If this were about your parents, sister-in-law, you wouldn’t say such things. To be honest, sister-in-law has done quite a number of inappropriate things over the years, yet our mother-in-law never said anything to you, right?" Fang Xin imdiately knew what her intention was.
"Hmph, she didn’t say anything, but it’s not like she ever liked much either. Our mom is just biased, she’s clearly partial to your second family, all the neighbors see it."
"Sister-in-law, you should thank the heavens, you must have done a lot of good deeds in your past life to et a mother-in-law like ours. With the things you’ve done, which mother-in-law wouldn’t turn on you once they knew? You should be content. Besides, our mom never favored us. If she were biased, it should be towards Bai Xu. Just look, all of Mom’s skills have been passed down to your first family; our second family hasn’t benefited at all. Our mom is always helping Bai Xu and Ai Xiang, now that sothing’s happened to their own grandmother, they should be the ones to contribute both money and effort."
"Why should my son bear all the burden? Aren’t the family skills supposed to be passed down to the eldest son and grandson? That was originally ant for them. If talking about bias, our mom still favors Xiao Yi the most. Xiao Yi has been raised by our mom single-handedly since childhood. When it cos to money and effort, it should be Xiao Yi contributing the most."
"Sister-in-law, stop dwelling on who our mom favors. As for money, as long as we have our two families, the juniors don’t need to contribute yet. If we really can’t co up with the money, then we can ask the juniors to pitch in."
"You say it so easily, yet in just a few days, we’ve spent more than one thousand yuan. Anyway, we don’t have any money left."
"No money? You and your brother-in-law are the key technicians in the factory, people who work continuously all year long, not even willing to look after your own grandchildren. How can you possibly not co up with a thousand yuan just like that?" Fang Xin said, seemingly surprised.
"My husband and I did save so money, but in recent years, as you know, we bought a house and spent a lot. Rongrong’s wedding over the years has drained all our family’s finances. Right now, where do we have any money!" Zhang Huilan replied, glaring.
"Sister-in-law, stop crying poor here. When it cos to money, our family can’t compare to yours. Xinghe, a re police officer, earns less than your husband each month. My salary is nowhere near yours either. This year, both my son and daughter got married one after another, spending a large amount. We’re even poorer than you right now. But... back to the point, no matter how lacking in funds, our mother-in-law’s treatnt must happen. I don’t care how much money you have, but our mom’s dical expenses must be evenly split between our two households. Whatever the final cost, half each. And if we don’t have it, we’ll borrow. There can’t be even a penny less," Fang Xin couldn’t stand her sister-in-law’s stingy and selfish attitude.
"Split half and half, fine, but I think the money shouldn’t only co from the sons. The daughters shouldn’t contribute any less either. And Xiao Yi, Xiao Yi is different from Bai Xu and Bai Jun; he’s been with our mom since childhood. Now that our mom is sick, he should naturally contribute a portion. Sister-in-law, don’t you agree?" Zhang Huilan sneered, pausing for a mont as a thought struck her, then added.
"Let the younger sister contribute but why let Xiao Yi, they’re all juniors, a grandson and a granddaughter, they’re both loved equally, flesh of the palm and back of the hand, they’re all the sa love. Can you dare say our mom didn’t take care of Bai Xu when he was young?" Fang Xin furrowed her brow.
