Chapter 32: Laughing at Shen Xingguo
Chen Baomei knew that he was just trying to make her angry.
Because she didn't care anymore, she wasn't angry.
Instead, he replied with the same smile: "My fortune is still to come. As for you, when your money is all gone, I don't know if that wild woman outside will still follow you."
As she spoke, she raised her chin and pointed to the plastic bag of milk on the table.
"Look, it's only been a short time, and I can't even afford a carton of milk to visit a patient. How shabby!"
The smile on Shen Xingguo's face froze, "That's because visiting you isn't worth me buying a box of milk!"
"Tsk tsk, if you're poor, just say so. Why bother making excuses?"
Shen Xingguo was furious, "I have money, so what if I buy milk in a plastic bag?"
Chen Baomei smiled contemptuously.
"It's up to you, as long as you are happy."
Shen Xingguo looked depressed.
This damn old woman let herself go after the divorce. Even her mouth became sharp-tongued. He couldn't win against her at all.
I came to see her with good intentions but was ridiculed. I should have not come here!
Unable to explain, Shen Xingguo could only change the subject.
"I heard you forced the elders to pay for the medical expenses? You said you have money, and the children are already burdened enough. It's just a small amount of money, why don't you pay it yourself?"
Chen Baomei followed his words and said, "A small amount of money? You are generous, then you can pay for them."
Shen Xingguo choked.
It's not okay to ask him to pay.
He has no means of livelihood now, and he will have no food to eat once the money he has is used up.
Besides, Gao Xiuyun spends a lot of money. The two of them spend nearly ten thousand yuan a month.
At this rate, his savings won't last long.
He himself was reluctant to spend the money, so how could he possibly give it to the boss or Chen Baomei?
Shen Xingguo couldn't hold back his face, so he could only say in a muffled voice: "What does it have to do with me? That's their responsibility. How can they ask me to pay for it?"
"If you don't pay, what are you talking about? You talk better than you sing, but in the end you're just talking nonsense."
"Okay, we've seen everyone, you can go now."
Chen Baomei ordered them to leave without any hesitation.
Shen Xingguo came with high hopes but left disappointed.
I thought I could make fun of Chen Baomei, but in the end she made me unable to hold my head up.
The father and son left in depression.
Recalling something, Chen Baomei warned her two daughters: "If he asks you for money or borrows money in the future, you must not give it to him."
Before the divorce, Shen Xingguo was used to spending lavishly.
He took away so much money in his previous life, enough for him to spend until he died of old age.
He is not destined to get rich in this life. Once his money is gone, he will definitely look for his children.
Chen Baomei was afraid that Shen Xingguo would rely on his two daughters.
Shen Yin shook her head. "No, if he wants money, let him sue us in court. I'll give him whatever the court decides."
There are five of them, brothers and sisters. Even if Shen Xingguo really sued him, the money wouldn't be much if the five families shared it equally.
Shen Ru also nodded in agreement.
If they were asked to take care of the elderly in the past, they would definitely take responsibility.
But now it's different. They can give Shen Xingguo a meal, but they will never give him more money and let him use the money to support a wild woman outside, especially this woman who has deeply hurt their family and their mother.
Dinner was delivered by Lu Qionghua. She specifically called and told them that they didn't need to buy it outside, as she would cook it at home and deliver it to them.
Lu Qionghua also made angelica and pigeon soup for Chen Baomei.
Shen Yin smiled and said, "This soup looks so delicious. Sister-in-law is so attentive."
One sister-in-law hurt someone and kept making excuses for the medical expenses, while the other sister-in-law took the trouble to come and help take care of them and bring them meals.
This comparison alone made Shen Yin's favor for Lu Qionghua double.
It's such a pity that a fresh flower is stuck in cow dung. That bastard Shen Ming is so lucky to marry such a good wife in his life.
Lu Qionghua pursed her lips and smiled, "I asked the doctor, and he said this soup can promote bone healing."
There was a lot of soup, and Chen Baomei didn’t finish it, so she gave it to the two sisters Chen Ru.
Chen Baomei originally wanted to hire a nurse to take care of her so that she and her sisters wouldn't have to work so hard at night.
Anyway, the nursing fees are paid by Shen Qin and his wife, so she doesn't have to pay out of her own pocket.
However, Shen Ru and Shen Yin felt that the care provided by the nurses was not as thorough as that provided by their own family members, so they insisted on staying in the hospital themselves.
This was something Chenru and her sister had agreed on. Today it was her turn to keep watch here.
Lu Qionghua wanted to stay here with Chen Baomei, but Chen Yin said that she had only taken four days of leave and Chen Baomei would have to stay in the hospital for several days, so she told her not to come for the time being and to come back and take turns with her elder sister after she returned.
Chen Baomei pondered, "I'll just let Shen Qin pay for your nursing care when the time comes."
"Mom, no need for that. It will save my sister-in-law from complaining later."
"She has an opinion? They were in the wrong first, so they have to keep their opinion to themselves."
Chen Baomei decided to include the nursing fees for the past few days in the calculation after she was discharged from the hospital, and transfer the money to them as soon as Shen Qin gave it to her!
At night, Chen Ru slept beside the patient's bed. As the mother and daughter were chatting, the topic went off topic and they talked about other people's family affairs.
Shen Ru said excitedly: "Mom, do you know that there is a follow-up to Mr. Tang's incident!"
"oh?"
Under the dim light, Chen Baomei's eyes suddenly widened with curiosity.
"What's going on? Tell me quickly."
"Boss Tang was sent to prison by Old Boss Tang and Tang Zheng!"
So explosive?!
Chen Baomei's sleepiness was startled away. "How did they get in? This is too amazing."
Perhaps because they had caught an adulterer together, and because everyone has a gossipy heart, Shen Ru paid special attention to the affairs of the Tang family.
So as soon as the news of Tang Guohai being imprisoned came out, she immediately went to find out the news.
"He falsified the accounts and maliciously transferred company assets. Mr. Tang caught him with evidence and sent him to jail. Now Tang Zheng not only wants to divorce him, but also wants to take back the marital property he spent on Lin for over a decade."
"I heard that the Lin family, mother and two children, were driven out by the Tang family, and the house she used to live in was taken back."
"That Lin guy is quite formidable. He brought the two children and Tang Guohai's paternity test to demand child support from Tang Zheng. But the Tang family outmaneuvered them. All the assets under Tang Guohai and Tang Zheng's names have been sold out. Even with the notarized paternity test, she can only watch helplessly! Now, they've probably been hunted down by the Tang family, leaving her with nowhere to go."
Chen Baomei echoed, "Just the elite lawyers the Tang family employs are enough to skin Tang Guohai and the Lins bare. Even after their scandals have been exposed, they still want to snatch food from their mouths. How naive."
Tang Guohai and Mr. Lin deserved the retribution they received.
"By the way, how many years will Tang be sentenced to?"
Chen Baomei no longer called him Mr. Tang. She always hated unfaithful men, so she changed his address from Mr. Tang to Tang Guohai, and then to his surname Tang.
"I heard it might take seven or eight years to get out."
The evidence prepared by the Tang family was so sufficient that Tang Guohai was really in trouble this time.
"It's retribution."
Compared to his previous life, his ending was relatively good. At least he saved his life in this life.
Speaking of Tang Guohai, Shen Ru remembered that Jiang Tianming called her in the afternoon.
"Mom, Jiang Tianming told me that he will come to see you tomorrow."
Chen Baomei glared at him, "Are you and Jiang Tianming together?"
Shen Ru was quite speechless, "Am I that kind of person?"
He had done so many things to hurt her, how could she possibly forgive him.
Besides, she heard that Jiang Tianming was ready to get a marriage certificate with Shu Yunyun in order to have an illegitimate child.
No matter how stupid she is, there is no way she would go back and accept such a man.
"Why would he come to see me? Tell him not to come."
Shen Ru said: "He just needs to let me know. The hospital is not owned by our family. I can stop him if he wants to come."
"But I know he came here to ask you something."
"Please me?"
Chen Baomei couldn't think of anything about herself that would be worthy of her former son-in-law's plot.
