Chapter 103: The Not-So-Simple Uncle
Deng Xinrong's face was as black as the bottom of a pot. "Shuyao, I never thought that you, with such a noble character, would raise a daughter who only cares about money. You are really a businessman's daughter. I shouldn't have let you..." He suddenly stopped here.
I was cheered up. Something was really going on. Keep talking. I was so anxious.
My mother had to maintain her noble and elegant words and deeds in front of so many people. She was so angry that she had to endure it and did not yell at me.
She took a few deep breaths before she slowly uttered, "I've spoiled this child. She has no sense of propriety when it comes to words, and I'm making fun of her. It's getting late today, so let's go to the hospital to see Shuxin first. I'll be leaving now."
Seeing that we were leaving, my aunt was still a little reluctant and said anxiously, "You're leaving now? We haven't even finished discussing today's matter. Look, for things like this, it's enough for the children to meet and get to know each other. In the future, why don't we, as the elders, discuss it ourselves?"
It's the 21st century now, and you still want to follow your parents' orders?
I said coldly, "Auntie, we're dead now. Our parents' orders are useless. If I don't want to get married, it won't matter even if you go to the National People's Congress to vote."
Deng Xinrong secretly winked at his daughter, and Deng Sisi immediately said aggrievedly, "Auntie, I'm not full yet. Can we rest here after dinner?"
My mother hesitated for a moment and was about to agree, but I said, "Mom, Sisi hasn't been home for half a year. She's already at her own home. It would be inappropriate for you to ask her to go with us right away.
Her father and grandmother must miss her, so let her stay at home for a few days, and then come to our house after the New Year and before school starts."
My mother thought about it and felt that what I said made sense. Anyway, my father had always been quite dissatisfied with Deng Sisi spending the New Year at my house.
So my mother said, "Mengmeng is right, Sisi, why don't you just stay home and spend the New Year peacefully, and then go to your aunt's house after the New Year. Your sister and I will go see your mother, aunt, sister-in-law, and brother first, and then I will leave first.
Xinrong, do you want to go to the hospital with me in your car?"
Deng Sisi's face turned pale. It was obvious that she didn't want to stay. It would not be as comfortable to celebrate the New Year here as at my home. She looked at her father anxiously.
My uncle glanced at me and said slowly, "Sisi, you are too ignorant. You haven't visited your mother once since she was hospitalized. Why don't you hurry up and go to the hospital with her.
Shuyao, you can't spoil a child like this. She does whatever she wants and thinks everything can happen to her."
After saying that, he looked at me meaningfully, opened the passenger door and got in the car.
Deng Sisi breathed a sigh of relief and quickly got into the back seat.
I was a little disappointed, as my uncle easily broke my little thought of abandoning her.
But as long as I can leave this damn place safely, this little thing is nothing.
The four of us quickly arrived at the county hospital. My aunt was on the fourth floor of the inpatient department, in the oncology ward.
I looked at my uncle in surprise. Didn't he say it wasn't a big deal? Why was he staying in the oncology ward?
My mother had the same question, "What's wrong with Shuxin? Didn't you say it was a gynecological problem? Why is she hospitalized in this ward?"
Deng Xinrong said unnaturally, "It's a gynecological disease, yes. You know, she had ovarian problems before, so she can't..."
