He Jindong's eyes were bloodshot. How could there be such a bastard?
"You just want money, right? I'll give it to you, but I don't have that much on me, just 50 yuan."
Zhao Youfu snatched it from his hand: "50 is 50." It's better than nothing.
"Nephew, I'm leaving now. I'll come back when I miss you."
After Zhao Youfu left, He Jindong's eyes were sinister. Colleagues passing by glanced at him and walked away quickly.
He Jindong returned to the office feeling guilty, fearing that someone might have heard what Zhao Youfu had shouted. He took the initiative to explain to everyone that a cousin from his grandmother's family came to borrow money, and the cousin made a fuss when he refused to lend the money, so he lent it to them.
His colleagues smiled and comforted him, saying that every family has its own problems and asked him not to take it to heart.
He Jindong was restless when he went to work. After work in the afternoon, he went back to his mother-in-law's house to have dinner, washed the dishes and mopped the floor. Then he told his wife that he wanted to go find Li Shulan.
There's no way around it. When you're under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. Since moving to his mother-in-law's house, the housework has been his and his wife's responsibility, and they often have to buy groceries for the house.
He remembered that the last time Li Shulan came to find him, she said she had moved to the north room of No. 175 Longyang Street, so he took a flashlight and groped in the dark to find her.
He shouted a few times outside the courtyard gate, but no one opened the door. Could they have been asleep? However, he was unwilling to walk such a long way and then go back the same way.
He knocked on the door a few more times.
Li Shulan in the room vaguely heard the noise. She wanted Zhao Youjie to stop, but Zhao Youjie had finally come once and was interrupted again. He was filled with anger. It cost him one dollar just to give sleeping pills to the whole family.
Last time it was that bastard Zhao Youcai, and this time he even locked the gate to the courtyard on purpose to prevent Zhao Youcai from disturbing him halfway.
"It's okay. After knocking for a while, no one answered, so Zhao Youcai left."
"What if he just comes in?"
"He was able to get in before because I only bolted the door, allowing him to find a way to open it from the outside. This time I locked it completely, so he definitely can't get in."
Seeing that the door had not been opened, He Jindong was so angry that he shouted at the top of his voice, "Mom!"
Li Shulan suddenly called out and patted Zhao Youjie's shoulder: "Hurry up, my son is calling me outside. Go to your room quickly and I'll open the door."
Seeing this, Zhao Youjie had no choice but to stand up and put on his clothes while cursing.
He buried his head in Li Shulan's neck and kissed her fiercely, "You must double compensate me in the future."
Li Shulan was anxious and agreed without saying a word. Then she pushed him away in no time, quickly tidied up the room, and hurried outside to open the door to welcome He Jindong in.
He Jindong's nose was red from the cold, and his ears were numb. He looked at Li Shulan who had arrived late, and was filled with anger:
"What the hell are you doing, opening the shop so late?"
Li Shulan was filled with guilt: "I'm sorry, I slept so soundly. I really didn't expect you to come so late."
Leading He Jindong into the house, Li Shulan hurriedly took out all the good things she had recently obtained from under the bed, including biscuits, canned yellow peaches, and malted milk.
"Take these back and give them to Taotao."
Taotao is He Jindong's son.
He Jindong came in and looked around the room. Although the light was dim, his mother's eyes were full of love and there were strawberry marks on her neck. As a man, how could he not understand.
Today Zhao Youfu said that Zhao Youcai was hospitalized and in a very serious condition and needed care. This time, the man was definitely not Zhao Youcai. He felt like his face was burning.
I don’t know if there will be Wang Youfu and Zhang Youfu who will blackmail me in the future besides Zhao Youfu.
He was almost mad.
Full of resentment: "I just can't understand why you can't just live a good life with He Chengyang? You have to make yourself into this despicable person who is neither human nor ghost."
Li Shulan had heard Wang Erni call her a bitch and her own mother call her a bitch, but she never imagined that this word would one day come out of her own son's mouth.
She slapped He Jindong hard. After the crisp sound, He Jindong was stunned.
By the time Li Shulan realized what was happening, tears were already streaming down her face. "Isn't it all for your own good?"
"Before you were born, He Chengyang was just a small clerk, earning about 20 yuan a month. His ex-wife would ask for money for sick children or clothes for their birthdays, but He Chengyang wouldn't prepare new clothes for you. He made you wear the clothes left over from his previous children."
"I need money to buy you milk powder and malted milk. He Chengyang said you'll grow up after a few months of breast milk and noodle soup. It's always me. I try my best to protect Zhao Youcai, asking him to buy you this and that so that you can live a rich life."
"Why do you say I'm a slut?"
He Jindong found Li Shulan's accusations ridiculous:
"Don't put all the blame on me. When I was born, everyone was poor. Why couldn't I wear old clothes, drink breast milk for a few months, and then eat noodle soup?"
"I'm afraid you don't want me to drink breast milk in order to maintain your figure. You're just using the name of me being Zhao Youcai's son to trick him into spending money on you. From childhood to adulthood, Zhao Youcai has probably spent more money on you."
"Now, because of your selfish desires, I've been put in an awkward situation. Today, Zhao Youfu came to me and asked me to go to the hospital to take care of Zhao Youcai. He also took the opportunity to extort 100 yuan from me, saying that if I don't give him the money, he will send both you and Zhao Youcai to jail. How long will I have to pay for all this trouble of yours?"
"I did spend some of Zhao Youcai's money when I was a kid, but last time you paid back the 2,000 yuan to Ma Xiulan, he took all my savings from me. I've almost paid it back, right? Can you please stop involving me?"
