Wasn’t she always apologizing for it in the past? But what happened now? Was it because she spent too much money? Zhang Min thought about what she bought today, and it seemed real.
She didn't brake in time, so she spent tens of thousands of dollars in one morning. However, she had spent like this before, and at that time, Mrs. Lu didn't say anything, let alone get angry with her.
It's just tens of thousands of dollars, is it necessary to give her such a big face?
Thinking of this, Zhang Min's face turned bad. Since ancient times, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law has been irreconcilable. Mrs. Lu and Zhang Min are both proud people. It is not easy for them to live in peace for so many years.
Although neither of them said anything, there was an inexplicable tension between them.
It seemed like the two of them could start fighting in just a breath.
"Mom, what's wrong with you?"
Zhang Min couldn't help it. She was so sarcastic. Who was she giving face to?
Mrs. Lu slowly patted her clothes, then stood up and stared straight into Zhang Min's eyes.
Maybe it was because her gaze was too direct, so at that moment, Zhang Min began to feel a little... guilty.
"I have an appointment with the doctor tomorrow, so you should get up early in the morning."
Mrs. Lu spoke calmly, as if her attitude was not much different from before.
Zhang Min's heart couldn't help but skip a beat.
"Doctor, what doctor?"
She is in good health and has no illness at all. She doesn't want to see a doctor or go to the hospital.
"Physical examination."
The corners of Mrs. Lu's mouth were raised with a hint of coldness.
As expected, he must be feeling guilty. He can't even bear to hear the word "doctor". No matter how good he pretends to be, it's useless. Fake is fake, and he wants to blame it on others. How can there be such a good thing in this world?
"Why do you want a physical examination?"
Zhang Min was very averse to the word "physical examination". These two words were like thorns, not only piercing her voice, but also her skin, making her throat almost break and she jumped up out of control.
She doesn't want a physical examination, she doesn't want one, she absolutely doesn't want one.
"Mom, we are all fine, why do we need a physical examination?"
She tried hard to force a smile on her face, but the smile was ugly and embarrassing.
Yes, she is fine, why does she need a physical examination? There is a lot of blood, do they have to draw more tubes? Don’t you know that she is anemic now and blood cannot be drawn?
"I've already made an appointment with the doctor," Mrs. Lu said, a hint of coldness on her face. "It's just a routine checkup for the whole family. It's perfect. I haven't had a checkup in half a year, so I'll feel more at ease after I go."
"Mom, I did it."
Zhang Min clenched her hands together. No matter what, she would never go for a physical examination. Although a physical examination was only a preliminary check, some things could be found out immediately after a check.
"Just consider it as accompanying us."
This time, Mrs. Lu was not as easy to talk to as before. She had always compromised and given in to Zhang Min before, but now, she wanted to tear Zhang Min into pieces. How could she still be nice to her or even give in to her?
This was everyone's first time as a human being, and even though she was older, there was no reason for her to give in to others.
But Mom, I have something to do tomorrow. The smile on Zhang Min's face is so stiff that it's about to break. Why don't you go first and I'll go there myself later.
"What's the matter?"
This time, Mrs. Lu really refused to give in.
"I……"
Zhang Min opened her mouth, but was at a loss for words and couldn't think of a suitable reason.
"Things at work."
Zhang Min turned her face away, avoiding Mrs. Lu's piercing gaze. She always felt that the look Mrs. Lu gave her today was a bit sharp, as if she was digging her eyeballs with a knife.
It is also to dig out those things that she hides the deepest and fears the most.
Those who cannot be seen by others, do not want to be known by others, and are also afraid of being known by others.
It is also the devil in her heart, the hell that she cannot escape in her life.
Hell and heaven are just between her thoughts. Whether she can survive in the future depends on this moment, right here.
"Just ask for leave from your company. A physical examination is also a good thing. There's no way your boss won't agree."
Not to mention her own physical examination, Zhang Min's unit organizes physical examinations for employees every year. By the way, Mrs. Lu just remembered now that Zhang Min had never had a physical examination at the unit, and her physical examination reports were all taken directly from the hospital.
Things over there are a bit urgent.
Zhang Min was getting impatient, but Mrs. Lu was being weird now, which made her very dislike.
"Mom, I have something else to do, so I'll go out first."
Zhang Min didn't want to stay here anymore, so she turned around and left. But just as she closed the door, she remembered that she didn't take her cell phone, wallet, or even put on any more clothes. The wind was very cold, and she couldn't help but shiver. She didn't want to go back, and she didn't want to face Mrs. Lu's sarcasm and forcing her to have a physical examination.
She couldn't help but hiss from the cold, then hugged her arms tightly and walked outside, thinking of finding a place to sit first, at least for a few hours, and then go back.
She was so cold that she wanted to turn back several times, thinking that it was her home after all, so why was it she who came out instead of Mrs. Lu? But when she thought of Mrs. Lu's tough attitude, she couldn't take a step back. On the contrary, she walked further and further away.
She touched her pocket and thought about finding a small teahouse or something, ordering a pot of tea and sitting down. No matter what, Zhang Min would never let herself live such a miserable life, like a beggar, and even wandering on the streets.
Besides, it was so cold and she wasn't wearing much clothes. Not to mention freezing for hours, she even felt her nose was uncomfortable.
"A-choo..."
Sure enough, Zhang Min sneezed several times in a row. It was because she was cold, and her nose was running. But in the end, she didn't think about going back, especially because she didn't want to see Mrs. Lu's old face.
It's like an old witch. I don't know how Lu Jian could have such a mother?
She had already said that she didn't want to go for a physical examination, but she was forced to go.
She just married into the Lu family, not the Lu family's slave. Could it be that she couldn't have her own ideas? She had to listen to the Lu family and Mrs. Lu in everything. Whatever Mrs. Lu said was the truth. So what did she think of herself?
She sneezed again and her hand couldn't help but touch her pocket, but she felt nothing. Her pocket was now emptier than her face. She only just remembered that she didn't bring any money when she went out. The money was in her bag, which was still on the table in her room.
