In her previous life, Old Mrs. Ma dedicated her all to her children. Unexpectedly, her old man ran off with his ex-wife and their money after committing murder.
Her children then pressured he...
"Dahai is a good kid. If you need help from me in the future, just ask."
Wang Erni took out the money from her pocket and stuffed it into Ma Xiulan's pocket: "I can't accept this money. We are relatives, and it is only natural for us to help each other."
Dahai came back yesterday and told her what happened, which scared her. Fortunately, Dahai only had a few scratches on his body.
She also scolded Dahai for meddling in other people's business. What if the gangster turned out to be a powerful one and had a knife?
She only has this one son.
Now that Ma Xiu Lan came to thank him, he suddenly felt a little proud of his son. Although she was greedy for money, she also knew that she should not take the hot money.
If her son had really helped that gangster for 50 yuan yesterday, she was afraid that she would often be unable to sleep because of this for the rest of her life.
Ma Xiulan stuffed the money back in her pocket and said, "This is what I gave to Dahai's wife. You have to take it. We'll have to visit often in the future."
Wang Erni saw that she couldn't refuse, so she accepted it.
The two began to chat about family matters. As they were chatting, Wang Erni scratched her hair in distress:
"Xiu Lan, to be honest, I've been sleeping so hard lately that I can't even get up. I wake up at eight or nine o'clock, and I don't dare tell anyone for fear that they'll laugh at me for being a lazy woman."
"But I'm worried about delaying things. After all, the college entrance examination is the day after tomorrow. What if Dahai can't get up like me? Could you please come to my house and wake me up on the morning of the college entrance examination?"
Ma Xiu Lan was a little suspicious. If other people in Wang Erni's family could get up, Wang Erni would never blame her. But if the whole family couldn't get up, that would be abnormal.
"Do you all wake up at the same time in the morning?"
Wang Erni nodded embarrassedly, then shook her head:
"My man sometimes wakes up earlier than me, sometimes later. But I don't trust him with such an important matter, so I'm bothering you."
Ma Xiu Lan inexplicably recalled what happened to Wang Qiuju last time. Wang Qiuju meant that she drank the water and fell unconscious on the ground. If Wang Erni and the others were drugged, she wouldn't be able to wake them up even if she called out to them. If that happened, it would be a big deal if Dahai missed the college entrance examination.
She agreed to come over and call Wang Erni, but she still vaguely told Wang Qiuju's story, indicating that Wang Erni should think about whether there was anything unusual and not to eat anything by mistake.
