Chapter 47 Return to the Old Su Family
Before Su He finished talking about her pain, she heard a commotion in the yard. The other sisters of the Su family had also returned.
Su's eldest sister and third sister each carried a large basket filled with fishing nets.
The two of them watched the big furry dogs playing in the yard, and they teased them to call "Auntie, Third Auntie!"
Da Mao had come back and remembered that he had called out to people. Seeing his brother calling out, Da Mao followed suit.
The two sisters entered the house and greeted Su He and Jin Weiguo. For a moment, the two sisters seemed quite enthusiastic towards the eldest sister.
Su He: "Where's Fourth Sister? Why didn't you come back with her when she went to call you?"
The younger sister said, "She went to look for us and ran into my brother on the way. He said he was going to the team to buy seafood, so she was worried and followed him to see what was going on. We had our fishing nets in our hands, or we would have followed him too."
When Su's mother heard that her son had gone to the brigade headquarters, she didn't say anything. She immediately arranged for her two daughters, one to cook and the other to follow her to continue grinding the mill.
There was a locust tree in the yard, casting a large shade, and the millstone was right under the shade.
Su He and Jin Weiguo drank a bowl of sweet soup and took stools to sit in the yard.
Xiaobao was also crawling slowly on the ground. It was a new place, and she was also curious about it.
Jin Weiguo knew that Su He had some evil intentions when she returned to her parents' home, so he just followed behind his daughter, fearing that Xiaobao would fall!
While pushing the millstone, Su's mother continued chatting with Su He: "You got such a big scar on your head, you must have been in the hospital for several days, right?"
Su He: "Hospitalization costs money. I stayed there for two days, unconscious for two days, and went home as soon as I woke up. Then, when things got really bad, I stayed in the hospital for two more days. The doctor said I would have to stay for ten days, but I gritted my teeth and didn't stay. I asked Weiguo to send the money back. Mom, did you accept it?"
Su's mother looked a little unhappy. In the past, when Su He sent money to her parents' home, she always avoided Jin Weiguo. But this time, not only did she not stay in the hospital to save money and send it back, she also asked her son-in-law to send it back. This made her feel a little embarrassed!
Mother Su glared at her and said, "You're so clueless! The doctor has already admitted you to the hospital, and you're still trying to save money and send it back! The money hasn't been touched yet, it's well kept!"
Su He guessed that Su's mother must have said this in front of Jin Weiguo, and she was only saying this to save face. Of course, she would not let this opportunity go: "Mom, that's great! Please bring this money back to me later! I didn't stay in the hospital properly, and I ended up with sequelae! I used my connections to get an appointment with a specialist at a major hospital in Shanghai, and I have to go there for treatment. I can't be without people now. I faint at any time, and I don't recognize people or remember anything. In our house, if Weiguo hadn't taken care of me, I wouldn't even know where to go!"
Her words went on smoothly and caught Su's mother off guard. Su's mother wanted to be polite, after all, she was asking for money in front of her son-in-law. But she didn't expect Su He to take the money back with her!
Mother Su didn't know how to respond for a moment. After all, how much could she do with this money? But if she didn't give it out, her son-in-law would definitely have objections if her daughter asked for the money back in the future!
But asking her to return the money she lost is more painful than cutting her flesh! Su's mother didn't say anything for a while. Su's younger sister, who was listening beside her, couldn't bear it any longer: "Mom, my elder sister still needs to see a doctor and get medicine. How much does it cost to go to a big hospital in Shanghai? As long as there is green mountains, there is no fear of running out of firewood! Mom, please consider my elder sister's health first!"
The third sister started to light the fire in the kitchen, but first she placed an iron griddle for making pancakes on the large stove and waited for Su's mother to grind the batter before she could start making pancakes.
Su's mother's expression was a little strange. She tried hard to maintain a smiling face, but the curvature of her muscles was a little strange. She was always at the angle of smiling, but unfortunately she didn't move much.
Su He had been mentally prepared for a long time. It was not easy to get money from Su's mother, but it was not the time to break up with her.
But to her surprise, Su's mother said, "Why rush? Your sister has to stay at home for one night before leaving. I'll give it to her when she leaves, so she won't have to show off by putting it in her pocket!"
Su He answered quickly: "Mom, we only have five days of vacation, and we still have to spend two or three days on the road. We have to go back to the city tonight and take a bus to Shanghai tomorrow. After seeing a doctor in Shanghai, we will go back home. We don't have time to stay at home. Mom is right. It's not safe to carry it with you. It's the same if you give it to me when I get home in the afternoon!"
Su's mother was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect that her eldest daughter had really changed. In the past, when she said this, her daughter would say nothing, but she would definitely not take money from her.
