Chapter 67 She's Coming

"Oh my God, what kind of old-fashioned thinking is this? Can't you open up your mind?" Lin Xiangnan stretched out his hand and gestured, "Open up~"

Hu Meili was getting sadder and sadder as she spoke, but after being interrupted by Lin Xiangnan, her emotions remained hanging in her heart, neither up nor down.

"It's useless to tell you. You are such a fool."

"You and your elder brother are similar. You even wanted to go to the countryside and jumped higher than anyone else. The only thing you are better than your elder brother is that you can't stand hardship."

"You have to be able to endure the hardship of farming. You might be happily digging sweet potatoes in the countryside right now."

Hu Meili was angry with him again.

Lin Xiangnan sighed and said earnestly: "Comrade Hu, you really can't use your current thinking to guess the future development of the country. You were born before liberation and have witnessed the great changes after the founding of the People's Republic of China. The changes in the future will only be greater. I will definitely have other opportunities in the future. If you force me like this, I will feel guilty no matter what choice I make."

Four years later, the college entrance examination will be restarted.

If you really can't pass the exam, you can still go into business with the reform and opening up. There are plenty of opportunities.

Hu Meili's actions put Lin Xiangdong in a difficult position.

If you choose your girlfriend, you will be sorry for your mother. If you choose your mother, you will be sorry for your girlfriend.

No matter what choice he makes, he will always be an ungrateful person.

If he was really an ungrateful person, it would be easy for him to just abandon his country girlfriend and return to the city. But he was not, otherwise he would not have refused Hu Meili's request to return to the city.

Lin Xiangnan felt that what he said made sense.

But Hu Meili not only refused to listen, she also looked at her with disdain and asked arrogantly: "Are you teaching me how to do things? Do I still need your teaching?"

Lin Xiangnan laughed angrily.

"Then you tell me. You bring my brother back to the city. What about the girl in the country?"

"Why should I care about her? She is not my daughter." Hu Meili said confidently, "That's all I can do. I am lucky enough to be able to take care of my own child. How can I care about other people?"

This sounds very reasonable.

Lin Xiangnan instantly changed from a bystander to an insider, "That's right. It's not like you'll die without a man. If you break up, the other person can still marry again."

"That's right. After a few years, the man and the woman will get married, and this matter will be over. Xiangdong can't blame me for a few years." Hu Meili said seriously: "But if Xiangdong can't return to the city this time, he will regret it for the rest of his life."

No one can tell whether the knot in one's heart can be untied.

But Lin Xiangnan was not going to persuade him anymore, and just said, "Take it easy. Don't push big brother too much."

"You don't have to tell me that."

When Lin Xiangdong returned to the hospital with his things from home, the slap marks on his face became more obvious. He was about to say something, "Mom, I..."

"Don't talk. You'll piss me off once you open your mouth." Hu Meili burst into tears. "I raised you with all my heart. It turns out you were raised for someone else. You're going to leave anyway, so don't pretend to be nice in front of me. Just go."

Lin Xiangnan lowered his head and pretended to be dead, and originally thought that he had no part to play.

As a result, Hu Meili added more scenes for her.

"Xiao Nan, I'm afraid I won't live long. When I really die one day, you and Xiao Xi will take care of the funeral for me. Don't inform your eldest brother. He doesn't want me, and I don't want him either!"

When grandma knew that Hu Meili was fine, she persuaded everyone else in the family to go back, leaving only Lin Xiangnan to help with the aftermath.

So now there is only one actor, Lin Xiangnan.

Lin Xiangnan wiped his face and said, "Mom, what are you talking about? You just have a heart disease. Take good care of yourself and you'll be fine."

Lin Xiangdong followed in embarrassment and persuaded: "Yes, Mom, don't be angry, your body can't stand it."

Given the current situation, Hu Meili can't rest peacefully at night.

Lin Xiangnan said simply, "Big brother, you take care of mom tonight. I will go back first and take over your shift tomorrow."

She doesn't like going to work anyway, so she has an excuse to take a day off tomorrow.

Lin Xiangxi didn't like going to school and also took a leave from school.

After they packed up, they rode their bikes to deliver breakfast to Hu Meili.

Lin Xiangnan cooked the porridge herself. She had learned a lot from Zhang Dapang recently and her cooking skills had improved a lot. Lin Xiangnan also bought the salted duck eggs from Zhang Dapang.

On the way here, she also bought four meat buns at the bun shop.

These three things all smelled delicious, but Hu Meili pretended not to eat them.

"Oh, I have no appetite. I don't want to eat."

Lin Xiangxi already knew the truth last night. He and Lin Xiangnan looked at each other and said, "If Mom doesn't want to eat, then we will eat."

Lin Xiangdong was worried and had no appetite. He drank a bowl of porridge and couldn't eat anymore.

Lin Xiangnan and his sister each ate two salted duck eggs and two meat buns.

Hu Meili gritted her teeth secretly, "The reason why our family couldn't save money for so many years is because you guys eat too much!"

The little brat ate his father out of money. After eating so much, Lin Xiangxi was only half full, so he agreed and said, "Mom, you are right."

"Yes, yes, yes, bullshit yes." Hu Meili cursed. She was starving, but Lin Xiangnan and the others were eating and drinking in front of her. It would be strange if she could get used to it.

However, she could only show off in front of Lin Xiangnan and his siblings. When she met Grandma Hu, her momentum suddenly became less powerful.

When no one was around, even when Grandma Hu scolded her, she remained obedient.

"You fainted just like that. Your father and I are old enough to worry about you. Didn't you know to tell me in advance?"

"Isn't it too late?" Hu Meili said pitifully, "You pinched my philtrum until it bled, and I haven't blamed you yet, but you blamed me first."

"Who do you dare to blame? You deserve it!" Grandma Hu glared at her and muttered, "With such a big blood scab under your nose, you look like a Jap devil."

Hu Meili's defense was instantly broken, "Mom, I'm your biological daughter, how can you scold me like that! It's so insulting!"

"Let's see if you dare to pretend to faint next time. If you do, I'll strangle you to death."

Although Grandma Hu despised her, she put on a very showy show. Not only did she come to the hospital to see Hu Meili whenever she was free, she also spent a huge amount of money to buy half a chicken from the grocery store and made chicken soup for Hu Meili.

Seeing this, Lin Xiangnan also stewed an old hen, and the soup was extremely delicious.

She took the soup bowl and sipped it, asking as she drank, "How is it? Is Big Brother convinced?"

Hu Meili bit a chicken leg with a bitter face, "Not yet. Not only did he not give in, he even started to doubt me."

"It's already the fourth day. Today, Doctor Liu hinted to me that I can be discharged soon. What should I do next?"

Hu Meili is trying to find a solution.

There was a knock on the door of the ward. A woman wearing a military green shirt and carrying a small package stood at the door and asked cautiously, "Is Lin Xiangdong's family in this ward?"

With a "pop", the chicken leg in Hu Meili's hand fell into the bowl.

It’s over, this woman is here.
