The mother and son counted the money face to face, and the old woman was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling!
The old woman counted the money tremblingly, her face wrinkled with laughter: "I'm rich, I'm rich! My son is really promising!"
Gao Zhiqiang shook his legs proudly: "This is nothing! Your son is going to do great things! This little money is nothing!"
He leaned closer to my mother and lowered his voice, "Once we get rid of those Southerners, I guarantee that our family will have a good life every day!"
When Lin Yaqin heard this, her whole body trembled subconsciously!
At this point, the old woman paused while counting the money. Suddenly, as if remembering something, she looked up and glared at Lin Yaqin: "What are you looking at! Your eyes are almost falling into the money! Have you ever seen so much money in your life? Get out of here!"
As she spoke, she raised her foot and kicked Lin Yaqin: "You have no sense! Didn't you see your man is back? Go and cook two dishes!"
The old woman was beaming as she counted the money, tugging on Gao Zhiqiang's arm and shaking him: "My son is really capable! He's much better than that loser next door, Xie San! His family shows off every day!"
Xie San is a well-known filial son in the compound. Although he is extremely poor, he is hardworking and capable, and is very considerate to his mother.
The Gao family and their son are the most disliked in the entire hospital, and are compared with the Xie family all the time.
Those gossipers were really nasty: "Look at Xie San, and then look at some other people, they're just born to dig holes!"
The old woman was so angry that she was half dead, but she couldn't win the argument and could only act like a bully at home.
This was a moment of pride! The old woman straightened her back and her voice became even louder: "Son, I'll go get you a pot of good wine! We're going to celebrate! Let those jealous people see how successful my son is!"
She deliberately raised her voice, fearing that her neighbors might not hear her.
Gao Zhiqiang stuffed the money into his pocket and pushed the steamed bread in front of him away with disdain: "Just a little wine, that's enough! Come on! Mom! Let's take you to a restaurant! Let's go to Dongshunlai for hot pot mutton! All you can eat!"
"Hit! Hit!" the old woman clapped her thigh with joy, revealing her yellow teeth. "I've been craving this! My son is so filial!"
She glanced at Lin Yaqin beside her, afraid that she would follow him and eat his meat, so she curled her lips and said, "Don't go. Eat these leftovers at home. You won't be embarrassed if you take them out!"
Seeing Lin Yaqin standing there timidly with her head down, the old woman proudly took her son's arm and raised her voice an octave: "Come on! Son! Have a good meal today! Let your buddies see how wealthy my Gao family is!"
The mother and son walked out of the house in high spirits. Before leaving, the old woman turned around and spat, "Wash the dishes! Sweep the floor! When the time comes, go in and go to work!"
If I don't receive the money by tomorrow, I will tear your skin apart!"
The broken wooden door opened and closed with a clang.
The old woman even walked around the yard, shouting at the top of her voice: "My Zhiqiang wants to take me out to a restaurant! Dongshunlai is having mutton hotpot!"
He was so proud that those who knew thought he was going to have a meal, while those who didn’t thought he was going to ascend the throne!
Lin Yaqin stood there holding a half-eaten steamed bun, listening to the distant laughter and the old woman's exaggerated boasting outside the door.
My heart was pounding and beating rapidly - this was simply a godsend!
