Chapter 66 An unexpected surprise
Aunt Wang shook her head and said, "I was just talking nonsense before. I didn't expect that it actually involved the house issue." She waved her hand quickly.
Bai Jing was happy, "Auntie Wang, don't be nervous. There are no outsiders here, and we didn't say anything outside."
Luo Chunhua knew her daughter very well, and seeing her like this, she knew that she had made up her mind again.
"Then what do you think we should do? You can't let me go home to take care of Dad, wouldn't it be even worse if I lost my job?" A deep male voice suddenly sounded.
"Hmph, I finally see. You're planning to force me, right? Yang Jianshe, let me tell you, no way. If you won't serve me, forget it. I'm taking the kids back to live with my parents."
The woman roared angrily, and then there was a loud bang on the door.
Then there was a sound of footsteps in the corridor, which was the sound of a woman walking away.
Bai Jing's eyes rolled and she immediately stood up, "Mom, I'm going out for a while."
Without waiting for Luo Chunhua to speak, Bai Jingren ran out.
Bai Jing followed the sound and saw a woman wiping her tears as she walked from afar.
"Sister, please wait a moment." Bai Jing ran forward quickly.
Luo Jie, who was feeling sad, was suddenly patted on the shoulder by someone. She stopped with an unhappy look on her face.
"Who are you, little girl? Is there something you want to talk to me about?" Seeing that it was a little girl, she wiped the tears from her face, forced a bitter smile and spoke.
"Sister, I'm a family member living in the ward next to yours. I heard what happened just now. I think your job must be a good one, otherwise you wouldn't be so upset."
When she heard that it was the family member of her father-in-law who was in the ward next door, Luo Jie took a closer look at the little girl.
"You're not much older than my child, so don't call me Big Sister. Call me Aunt Luo instead. Little girl, do you have something to talk to me about?"
Luo Jie is not a fool. She knows that the little girl must have something to ask her. She also heard her family quarreling, and she doesn't know why she came to her.
"Aunt Luo, how about we find a quieter place to talk?"
Bai Jing smiled foolishly.
Luo Jie was indeed feeling uncomfortable. Although she didn't know what the girl wanted to talk to her about, she was still willing to listen to what she had to say.
"Let's go over there. It's cool under the tree." Luo Jie pointed to a big tree not far from the hospital.
"Okay." Bai Jing looked in the direction of her hand and saw that there was no one over there, so she agreed.
After arriving, Bai Jing didn't waste any time and told everything she had learned from Aunt Wang and what she had just heard.
"Aunt Luo, since Grandpa is sick, he must be taken care of at home. You don't want to give up your job, and you don't want to let Grandpa's daughter get away with it. Why don't you sell Grandpa's house? With the money, you can hire someone to do the work for you, and you can make up for the loss. You don't have to get into a rift with Uncle over this."
"As the saying goes, when a couple is not harmonious, the evil one will benefit. If your uncle really dislikes you because of your care for the elderly, Aunt Luo, who do you think will benefit in the end?"
Bai Jing's words went straight into Aunt Luo's heart.
"We don't lack a house, but if we sell it, I can't make the decision. I need to go back and discuss it with others. Little girl, if this really works out, you'll be the first one I'll come to."
Since my sister-in-law and the others are unwilling to help me, then they can forget about getting any good things.
Besides, they can't afford to buy a house, and if they owe money, they don't know when they can get it back.
It would be better to sell it to an outsider. At least she can get the money. Then she can hire someone to do the work for her. Not only will she keep her job, but she will also have a lot of money in her hands.
She never thought of neglecting the elderly, but her sister-in-law at home danced so loudly that it annoyed her.
Also, her husband didn't care about her. He just listened to his two younger sisters saying that he was unfilial and started to treat her coldly.
But what did she do wrong?
Why should she give up her job for his father? It’s not easy to find a job nowadays, let alone a decent and high-paying job like hers.
It’s something that others can’t get even if they ask for it.
She knew very well what her sister-in-law was planning. She just wanted to work for her. She was dreaming.
She wouldn't give it to them even if she sold her job.
Bai Jing knew that this was enough, and if she said any more she would be annoying.
"Okay, then Aunt Luo, go back and think about it. My mother's last name is Luo too. This is also our fate, isn't it?"
"What a coincidence! This surname is rare here. Little girl, where is your mother from?" Luo Jie suddenly became interested.
Although Bai Jing didn't know whether what she said was true or not, she still gave her maternal address. "My mother is from Tie Village under Yongxing Commune. She married into Baijia Village in Fumin Commune."
Hearing that it was a place she was not used to, Luo Jie's enthusiasm faded a little.
"I see. We're not from the same place. My family is also an immigrant population, but we came from the Southern Province."
After a few more words, the two separated.
When Bai Jing returned, she met Aunt Luo's husband.
He looks like an honest man, and he looks very haggard, probably because his father is sick.
When they met face to face, Bai Jing nodded and walked towards the ward next to his house.
In the ward, Luo Chunhua was chatting happily with Aunt Wang when they saw Bai Jing coming back. Both of them turned their eyes to her.
"Were you chasing the girl from the next ward just now?" Aunt Wang spoke quickly and asked what was on her mind before Luo Chunhua did.
Bai Jing walked over with a smile, "Well, Aunt Wang's idea was very good, so I wanted to ask her what would happen if it really came true."
"That's right, it's good to ask. What if it works?" Aunt Wang liked Bai Jing's enthusiasm very much.
Luo Chunhua didn't have much hope. These days, housing is in short supply in the city, and no matter how well-off the family is, they can't sell the house.
But after hearing her daughter say this, she also became interested. "So, did she agree?"
"How can she make a decision so quickly? She said she would go back and discuss it. I told her she could come to see me when she made a decision."
However, Bai Jing was still a little curious, "Auntie Wang, do you know where the couple next door work?" Since they have extra houses to sell, it seems that their company is quite good.
It would be nice if we could make some good connections.
"I actually know this." Aunt Wang was amused. This just happened to be right in her line of fire.
"Tell me about it." Bai Jinglai immediately picked up an apple and put it in Aunt Wang's hand, asking her to tell the story.
"I heard the old man next door's son say that. He seems to be working in a government agency, a leader of some importance. The house they live in now was allocated by his current unit."
It was precisely because he was a small leader in a certain unit that he did not dare to openly invite a nanny home to take care of the old man.
"That daughter-in-law seems to be an office clerk at the supply and marketing cooperative. That's a job that no one else can even hope for."
After learning about their workplaces, Bai Jing felt that the chances of selling the house were even higher.
"Does he have only one son?" She knew before that he had two daughters. Nowadays, married daughters rarely get their hands on their parents' wealth, so she asked if he only had one son?
"Of course. I heard that the old man was also an official in the town before he retired due to illness, but I don't know what position he held." Aunt Wang's ability to get information is really good.
Bai Jing smiled. The news she received in exchange for a glass of milk and an apple really surprised her.
