The elder brother of the dragon-catching tiger sighed, "I thank you on behalf of Da Niu, but the 4,000 yuan surgery fee is really not something that a family like ours can afford. It's all fate."
The fat man immediately shouted, "I already said, I'll pay for it!"
His older brother retorted, "What do you expect me to give you in return! Selling everything I own and demolishing my house wouldn't be enough, would it? If it were, I'd take care of it right away, but as you and I both know, it's not enough... If Da Niu were a woman, I would have arranged for her to be given to you as payment, but unfortunately, she isn't!"
Good heavens, first Director Wang complained that Fatty wasn't a big, fat girl, then the older brother of the Dragon-Catching Tiger complained that his younger brother wasn't a girl. This world is too crazy...
The fat man couldn't persuade him no matter what he tried, so he simply said, "Brother, why don't we ask Da Niu's opinion? At worst, we can make him work for me for the rest of his life and deduct it from his salary!"
Everyone has selfish desires. Even Qinlonghu's elder brother was no exception; he didn't want to give up as long as there was even the slightest hope.
But if you know you definitely can't pay back the money, and you still force the fat guy to pay it against your conscience, wouldn't that make you a deadbeat?
The fat man's words gave him a glimmer of hope. The two returned to the ward and told Qinlonghu about their decision.
Suddenly, Qinlonghu, who had been expressionless and silent since waking up, smiled and said, "Brother, give me a hand."
His older brother remained unmoved; the doctor had said he wouldn't be able to get out of bed anytime soon.
Seeing this, Qinlonghu struggled to get down... but he had no strength at all, and his brother pressed him down again.
Qinlonghu howled in despair, "Fatty, Fatty, listen up! I'm not spending your money! If you dare to give me any, I'll jump off this cliff!"
This idiot...
The fat man was speechless: "Didn't I already say that I wouldn't give you this money for nothing? You'll work for me to pay off your debts in the future."
"Pah! I'm a working-class man, and you dare to try and exploit me? I won't stand for it!"
His older brother was also anxious and angry, but he dared not say a word and could only keep giving Qinlonghu meaningful glances.
After much arguing, the matter remained unresolved.
One minute the dragon-tiger is threatening to jump down, the next he's threatening to crash into something and kill himself, then he's threatening to burn the hospital down... making the other patients in the ward want to call the police.
This grandson is absolutely determined.
The fat man didn't press him any further. The experts weren't there yet. Once they arrived, if he was confident, he would give him a sedative injection and then put him in the operating room.
He refused to believe that after the surgery, Qinlonghu would still have the courage to climb out of the window!
Back in Shi Bowen's ward, Fatty told him about it in a bad mood.
Shi Bowen was speechless for a long time after listening, and finally said: "You can't pay for this alone. If you want to demolish the house, demolish mine too. We'll sell everything we own to give him the surgery!"
The fat man didn't say a word to him, but instead pushed Chen Yan towards the door.
Chen Yan was completely baffled by him: "What are you doing?"
"Second sister, he's practically given himself a nickname: 'Lacking Sense of Sense'! You stay away from him and don't see him again, understand? Don't even think about anything between you two!"
Chen Yan barely managed to suppress her laughter, then turned around and patted the fat man twice.
Her pretty face flushed slightly: "Who did 'that' with him?"
The fat man frowned as he looked at the bewildered Shi Bowen, his expression one of utter disdain: "Look at him, unemployed..."
Shi Bowen weakly interrupted him: "Well, I'm an employee of Hongxing Factory, just like you."
The fat man flew into a rage: "With your meager salary, how can you support my sister?"
Shi Bowen immediately pulled the blanket up and covered himself up.
The fat man held onto Chen Yan tightly: "Let go! I'll smother him with a pillow today!"
Chen Yan wanted to kick him. Who was holding him back? It was the fat man who was pulling her arm so hard it hurt...
The farce only ended when Yu Li came in.
The fat man and Chen Yan asked in unison, "Why are you here?"
Yu Li said with disdain, "You two are really like siblings. Shi Bowen at least calls me sister-in-law. How could I not come when something like this happened?"
Of the two women present, one was the nominal "boss," responsible for finding work for everyone and paying their wages.
The other one is their true sister-in-law. Bearing this title, she has always taken good care of them.
Yu Li sat down and had only exchanged a few words with Shi Bowen when the fat man took the opportunity to complain to her.
Enraged, Yu Li slapped Chen Yan and scolded the fat man with a displeased look: "What's the big deal? We can just have him marry into our family!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Yan said she was going to the bathroom and slipped away; Shi Bowen shrank back under the covers, neither agreeing nor refusing...
The fat man angrily threw off the covers: "You bastard, I haven't even agreed yet, and you've already tacitly agreed!"
Shi Bowen silently turned over and lay face down on the pillow.
I couldn't understand it at all. How could he just agree to it?
He hadn't even had time to think about it yet. This was a marriage into the family, could a good person do that? If he agreed, he wouldn't be like Liu Guangfu, people would look down on him and talk behind his back.
But, but that person is Sister Yan... Oh, what should I do?
No one paid any attention to Benleihu, the old virgin. The fat man led Yu Li to Qinlonghu's ward again.
Upon seeing her, Qin Longhu stammered, "Sister-in-law, what brings you here?"
Yu Li greeted her brother and sat down on the small white stool by the bed: "Da Niu, since you call me sister-in-law, will you listen to me?"
The cunning and ruthless man, Qinlonghu, said, "As long as you don't mention paying for my surgery, I'll do whatever you tell me to do!"
This person... Yu Li also made him furious.
The fat man said he would pay for his surgery, and he wasn't just putting on a brave face.
Not to mention his hidden wealth in Stardew Valley, the money they've accumulated over the years is more than enough...
The fat man's family had been quietly making a fortune, and all of this money was kept in Yu Li's hands.
When the fat man mentioned it to her, she only thought about it briefly before agreeing. She showed no intention of questioning him about "why he didn't discuss such a big matter with me."
The fat man trusted her and let her keep all the money he earned.
Just as he once said: "Whether a person is true or false depends on whether he is prepared to keep his word, even if the sky falls and the earth cracks!"
We've been married for so many years, and he says it, and he does it.
How could Yu Li possibly hold such a towering and upright man back?
Yu Li's statement finally convinced Qin Longhu's brother that the fat man was speaking from the heart, and not simply acting out of brotherhood.
Yu Li tried her best to persuade him, but Qin Longhu was as stubborn as a mule and just wouldn't do it.
If pushed too far, he'll have to cut ties with the fat guy...
This person was too stubborn and inflexible, leaving Yu Li helpless and with no choice but to proceed cautiously.
