78. The Poor Xia Linxing
An hour later, Yunshui Town, Su family.
"Su, Su Zhi?"
The wooden door of the low bungalow with the word "Fu Dao Le" hanging on it creaked open, and a handsome but slightly thin and frail young man poked his head out.
The moment he saw Su Zhi, the boy's beautiful eyes widened slightly.
"Why are you back?"
"Where are your parents?" Su Zhi asked expressionlessly.
As soon as she finished speaking, a middle-aged woman's voice came from the inner room, "Xiaohua, who are you talking to?"
After that, a woman wearing an apron and holding a spatula came out.
The moment she saw Su Zhi, the expression on the woman's face suddenly froze.
…
"Which hospital is grandma in?"
In the living room, Xia Chi looked at the sofa in front of him that had an extremely long "history", suppressed his disgust, and sat down obediently next to Su Zhi and Xia Linxing.
Opposite them sat Su Shengwen, Chen Shuilian and the Su Hua family of three.
"I'll tell you in detail about your grandmother's condition later, okay?"
Facing Su Zhi's question, Chen Shuilian put on a gentle smile and said, "Look at you, you must be exhausted after rushing all the way here. Come, have a cup of tea first."
As Chen Shuilian said this, she was about to pour tea for Su Zhi.
"I don't like tea."
Su Zhi raised her hand to stop her from moving. She didn't want to watch her pretending to be so evasive, so she asked directly, "Now tell me, how is grandma's condition?"
Her attitude remained indifferent, and Chen Shuilian's gentle expression also turned a little colder.
"Zhizhi, I know you care about grandma, but don't you care about mom and dad at all?"
"You haven't been back for so many years, and you haven't even called mom and dad since you came home."
"And these two beside you."
Chen Shuilian slightly tilted her eyes, and cast a sharp gaze at Xia Linxing and Xia Chi.
"Aren't you going to introduce me to your parents?"
"Mom and Dad?"
Su Wei looked at her and Su Shengwen beside her with amusement.
"Ms. Chen, I think you haven't figured out a situation yet."
Su Zhi looked at her with a half-smile.
"I have severed my parent-child relationship with you a long time ago. You said it yourself the day you kicked me out of the house. Don't you remember?"
Chen Shuilian looked embarrassed and said, "I just said that out of anger."
"How can a parent and a child hold a grudge overnight?"
"Zhizhi, mom already knows she was wrong."
After Chen Shuilian finished speaking, her eyes turned slightly red.
"I shouldn't have said those nonsense. I'm sorry for having wronged you over the years."
"Don't be angry, this will always be your home. As long as you want to come back, I, your father, and your brother will always welcome you..."
"No need."
Su Zhi reached out to interrupt her self-indulgent words.
"I have my own family, so this home should be left to your precious son Su Hua."
She finished speaking, her tone already somewhat impatient, "Let me ask again, which hospital is grandma in?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a loud "bang" coming from another room.
Chen Shuilian's face changed slightly.
"It must be a mouse that knocked something over. I'll go check it out."
Chen Shuilian said this and stood up feeling a little guilty.
Su Zhi was one step faster than her and walked towards the room where the sound came from.
"Hey, weave!"
Chen Shuilian looked anxious and was about to stop her.
But Su Zhi had already walked over and turned the door handle.
The moment the door opened, an indescribable stench wafted out.
An iron basin that was used to hold something unknown was knocked over to the ground, and liquid was flowing all over the floor.
Su Zhi frowned, and in Yu Ling's messy room, she immediately locked her eyes on the old bunk bed against the corner of the wall.
And at this moment, on this bed, there was a skinny figure lying.
Even though his hair was messy and gray, his face was dirty, and his clothes were disheveled, Su Zhi still recognized the skinny old man in front of her at a glance.
The original owner’s grandmother——Huang Yumei.
An indescribable emotion surged in my heart, and my nose suddenly felt sore.
This is totally beyond Su Zhi's control.
"Grandma..."
Su Zhi pursed her lips and walked in immediately.
"Zhizhi, don't..." Chen Shuilian subconsciously wanted to grab her hand.
However, just as she was about to move, a tall figure suddenly approached.
It was a very clever angle. It wasn't an overly strong obstruction, but it just happened to block her from catching Su Zhi.
Chen Shuilian was stunned, looked up, and was unexpectedly met with the man's gentle and handsome face.
The man was also looking down at her. His dark and deep eyes were calm, yet they inexplicably made people feel as if an icy scalpel was hanging around their neck.
Seeing this, Chen Shuilian subconsciously stepped back. She could no longer maintain her gentle expression and her face sank slightly.
After looking at it and guessing for a long time, she was not sure.
But looking at the man's expression now, he must be that scumbag Su Zhi without a doubt.
Didn’t they say that that bitch Su Zhi married a very rich man?
But the man in front of me is clearly just an ordinary poor guy except for his face and temperament!
If she had known this, why would she pretend to be so hardworking?
How dare a poor guy look at her?
"Grandma, are you okay?"
Su Zhi ignored the unspeakable foul smell and reached out to help Huang Yumei up from the bed.
The moment she moved, Huang Yumei also looked at her.
Those wrinkled, cloudy eyes were full of confusion, and his mouth was speaking some unclear words that were hard to understand.
Su Zhi listened carefully for a moment, but still couldn't put it into a complete sentence.
"Don't bother. Your grandma has Alzheimer's. She can't even remember us, let alone you."
Chen Shuilian's voice suddenly rang out, but at this moment, there was no gentleness in it.
Su Zhi looked at the dirty and smelly room and looked at Chen Shuilian coldly, "Is this how you take care of grandma?"
"What do you think? I take care of her from head to toe every day. I've done my best, okay?"
"She suffers from uremia, so it's normal for her to smell like urine. Besides, there's no money to pay for dialysis for your grandma these days."
Hearing this, Su Zhi frowned, "You haven't taken grandma to dialysis recently?"
"Didn't I tell you? I have no money!" Chen Shuilian rolled her eyes.
“I don’t have money to pay for my grandma’s dialysis, but I have money to buy durian?”
Su Zhi sneered.
Hearing this, Chen Shuilian felt a little guilty.
"Which eye of yours saw where we bought durian to eat?"
Su Zhi looked coldly at Su Hua who was standing not far behind her, eating a box of durian while watching the excitement.
"Isn't it behind you?"
Chen Shuilian looked back and was silent for a moment.
Then she sneered, "So what if I bought it?"
"You can't let your whole family live a hard life just because of your grandmother's illness, right?"
"Your brother is in the growth stage, what's wrong with him eating durian?"
God damn, he is so tall, a giant baby of 18 or 19 years old.
Su Zhi felt disgusted.
Chen Shuilian simply stopped pretending.
"The doctor said that the most important thing for your grandmother's illness is to find the source of the kidney. Only by transplanting the kidney can it be completely cured."
"So, if you don't have 400,000 or 500,000 yuan or more, forget it."
"Haven't you been wandering around in big cities for many years?"
Chen Shuilian looked at her with a half-smile, "I guess you've made a fortune, you wouldn't be unable to come up with even this little money, right?"
