C32 (2/2)
Shen Liangxia ignored the people behind her and followed the doctor. She watched as her grandmother was pushed into the ICU and covered by an oxygen mask. There were all kinds of pipes on his body, and he was wearing them all over his body. (TL: OMG/OMG/OMG/OMG/OMG/OMG/OMG/OMG/OMG/OMG/OMG/OMG/OMG/OMG/OMG/OMG/OMG/OMG/OMG/OMG/OMG
Shen Liangxia couldn't bear to see her grandma suffer such pain, but compared to the laws of nature, the power of humans was just so insignificant. If she wanted to live, she would have to pay a lot and endure a lot.
When the doctor came out, he had to be reminded that it would take at least two days to get out of the ward.
After sending the doctor away, the aunts surrounded him once again, discussing what had just happened.
Shen Liangxia didn't bother to look at them. She sat in a chair outside the ICU and covered half her face with her coat, isolating herself from these people.
First aunt licked her lips and began to eat the crab first. ”Liangxia, logically speaking, your grandma is still in the emergency room. I shouldn't have said that, but …” However, if he didn't say anything, he was afraid that the old woman would recover and this little girl would run away.
”After all, that's your elder cousin's life, and now that you mention it, we can't even buy a house.” That's your elder cousin's life, and now that you mention it, we can't even buy a house.
There was no response. His aunt licked her lips again and promised, ”How about this, look at this. Your aunt doesn't want your money even if she is short on money. Your aunt will write a IOU for you. In the future, when your aunt has plenty of money, she will naturally return it to you.”
Since he would never have the money in the future, he naturally wouldn't need to pay it back.
Shen Liangxia took off her clothes and quietly looked at her. Naturally, his second aunt was unwilling, and quickly said: ”Liangxia, look at your cousin who has just graduated a year ago, and still doesn't have a proper job. Look, take her to S City and find her a lighter job, you don't know, your cousin was a class officer in the class since she was in primary school, but she has management skills.”
”If a team leader on duty can be counted as some sort of management talent, then that talent is really worthless.”
Third Aunt mercilessly jabbed at Second Aunt's face. Second Aunt was about to explode on the spot, and Shen Liangxia lazily spoke.
”I'm sorry, I don't have that much money to buy a house for my big cousin. I can't afford that house either.”
”Liangxia, look at what you're saying. In the future, when I have money, I'll naturally return it to you …” First Aunt's expression began to turn ugly. ”Let's not talk about everything else. Just talking about how you didn't end up like this when you were young, right …”
”Are you saying that you helped you wash the bedsheets all afternoon in the middle of the winter and then squatted under the overhang with your rice bowl in your hands, eating long-haired steamed buns while having salted vegetables?” Shen Liangxia's face was faintly mocking, ”I don't have money, not to mention you writing me a IOU, even if you were to take my life, I still don't have money. My money must be given to Grandmother to see a doctor.”
Then what can you do with some money? It's not like I won't pay you back, and what's more, it's not like your grandma's illness will be cured in a short period of time.
”If you pay for the medical expenses later, I'll give the money to you.” Shen Lengxia ignored her aunt's unsightly expression and turned to her second aunt. ”I can't find a good job. Even if I offend others, I won't have that many connections.”
Second Aunt learned from Eldest Aunt and didn't bring it up and just discussed, ”Liangxia, you're in a big city, so there are a lot more opportunities than us, a small third or fourth tier city. Besides, aren't you still Miss Shen? ”Your cousin doesn't need to work at any big company. Just tell your dad and give her a random position in the Shen family's company.”
When his third aunt heard this, her ears pricked up.
Shen Liangxia's gaze stopped on her little cousin who was standing behind her second aunt, and she lightly said: ”Miss Shen, you are truly wrong, I am at most surnamed Shen, I am really not Miss Shen, not to mention anything else, no one in the entire Shen family recognizes me, I advise you not to think about this, if elder cousin really enters with my reputation, she will definitely be beaten to a pulp.”
”Liangxia, you can't say that. If you really don't have any status in the Shen family, why would Shen Jianguo give you so much money to treat your grandmother?”
How would they know why her pocket money didn't go to waste? Shen Liangxia couldn't be bothered to argue with them. Every time you don't get the benefit, it's this stuff.
Sure enough, the crowd once again began to talk and criticize at the same time.
At most, she had eaten at someone's place when she was young, worn someone's old clothes, and used their books. How could she not remember kindness and grudges when she was young and not remember grudges when she was young? An illegitimate daughter, don't think that she became a phoenix just by sticking to the phoenix hair. A sparrow is still a sparrow.
Before Shen Liangxia had rejected their proposal, they had naturally given her face. Now that Shen Liangxia did not give them any face at all, they naturally would not speak kindly of her.
All sorts of unpleasant words were being whispered at her ear, causing Shen Liangxia to almost go crazy. She had no choice but to cover her ears with her hands. If it wasn't for her grandmother's unknown fate, she would have definitely left right now.
”Cold summer —” A deep, ornate voice pierced the crowd. A man in a black suit was standing outside the crowd, walking towards her.
”What's going on? Who's bullying you?” Xiao Bu Dian walked through the crowd to her side and protected her in his arms. His cold gaze swept across everyone present.
The low voice did not have the slightest bit of warmth as it said, ”You bullied her?”
