Ma Hongxiu had never been slapped before. Two slaps made her cheeks numb and painful. She stared at the man in shock, covering her face: "You, why are you hitting me?"

"I won't hit you lightly if I do." The woman opened her mouth wide and spit flew onto Ma Hongxiu's face.

Ma Hongxiu immediately jumped up and down in disgust: "What are you doing!"

"I'll beat you!" the man said, then went up and grabbed Ma Hongxiu's hair and slapped her in the face.

"It hurts so much, please let me go. I'm an American and it's illegal for you to hit me." Ma Hongxiu screamed and tried her best to hide.

My hair was nearly torn off.

This woman is actually an American, but in the eyes of this rural woman, she is nothing. Even if you are a Martian, you are being beaten by my hair right now. I am afraid you will beg for mercy.

"Mom! Mom!" Ma Hongxiu screamed in pain.

Zhu Dahong finally came to her senses. Seeing her daughter being beaten, she was afraid of the police, but not this dead woman: "If you dare to hit my daughter, I will fight you."

She rolled up her sleeves and rushed forward.

The two women grabbed each other's hair, bent their waists, and fought like bulls at the payment window of the health center, screaming and kicking and hitting each other.

The police didn't know how to separate them.

"Stop hitting me, stop hitting me. If you continue, I will arrest all of you and take you to the police station."

Unfortunately, the police officer was a young man, and the two shrews were not afraid of him.

Another one pulled him back and said, "Nothing will happen if you beat them up. Why bother with them?"

That was indeed the case. Grabbing and kicking would not kill him, so the two police officers simply left it alone.

Ma Hongxiu's hair was torn into a mess, and she felt pain and embarrassment. Tears welled up in her eyes, and she gritted her teeth in anger.

She had other things to do and didn't want to dwell on this matter any longer.

She adjusted her hair and turned to leave.

Zhu Dahong was fighting with the woman, and suddenly she saw Ma Hongxiu was about to leave. She hurriedly shouted, "Hongxiu, where are you going?"

Ma Hongxiu looked at her impatiently and said, "Of course I have to go back. I'm tired all day and I have to go back and rest."

"You can't leave." Zhu Dahong struggled and shouted anxiously, "If you leave, who will pay you?"

The rural woman who had pinned Zhu Dahong to the ground and beat her was also stunned for a moment, then she reacted and rushed forward to grab Ma Hongxiu: "You are the one who injured my aunt, and you still want to run away?"

"What are you doing? Let me go!" Ma Hongxiu had just been beaten, and when she looked at the woman's black and yellow nails, which were full of mud, she felt even more disgusted.

"If I let go, you'll run away." The woman was not stupid. She grabbed Ma Hongxiu and said to the police officer next to her, "My aunt has no children. I usually take care of her. Now she is in the hospital. Whoever beat her up has to pay for her treatment. Isn't that right?"

The police naturally nodded.

To put it bluntly, this is a civil dispute. The old lady is still alive, and this person named Ma Hongxiu has to pay compensation.

As long as the money is paid, there will be no problem.

But, because the old lady is very old, she is 90 years old and is still lying sick.

Taking care of the patient is no small matter, and it will also involve the issue of whether the patient can take care of himself and move freely. The compensation money is not easy to calculate.

It's possible to count it as hundreds of thousands, and it's also possible to count it as one or two thousand.

It depends on how much the old lady's relative, this rural woman, plans to take.

Ma Hongxiu was confused: "What do you mean, do you still want to blackmail me?"

She felt that the police and the rural woman were working together to extort money from her.

She was facing a difficult situation. As an American, she knew that a strong dragon could not defeat a local snake, so she could only call Su Wanping again.

Su Wanping is at home.

After a heart-to-heart talk with her cousin today, she has completely let it go and feels relieved. This afternoon, she plans to make herself a bowl of tomato, vegetable and egg noodles.

As soon as the noodles were put into the pot, the red tomatoes, golden eggs, and green vegetables were rolling in the boiling pot, which was so appetizing.

Just as I was waiting for the noodles to cook, the phone rang.

"Mom! I called you and asked you to come to the hospital. Why didn't you come?" As soon as the call was connected, Ma Hongxiu's angry voice came from the other end: "Do you know that I was beaten up just now?"

Under normal circumstances, Su Wanping would have followed Ma Hongxiu's wishes and done whatever she asked her to do.

Now, whenever Ma Hongxiu made a request to her, she couldn't help but think of what her cousin Chen Xiaoying said: Are they worthy? Is it worth it?

Ma Hongxiu was an ungrateful person who didn't deserve her love. Not only did she demand everything from her, but she was also so greedy that she wanted to push her into a desperate situation.

She even thought about dying.

Is it worth dying for Ma Hongxiu?

Is such a selfish and mean person worthy of her life's efforts and even her precious declaration?

After Su Wanping had finally come to terms with it, she calmed down to Ma Hongxiu's clamor: "Why should I go? I raised you until you were an adult, and even paid for you to study abroad. You bought a house abroad, and your father and I even borrowed 20,000 yuan to send it to you. Hongxiu, you are already in your forties, and you have given birth to three children. You are an adult. Don't ask me for everything. I don't owe you anything."

I don't owe you anything.

These five words made Ma Hongxiu stunned.

She looked at the microphone in surprise. If she hadn't been very familiar with the phone number and her adoptive mother Su Wanping's voice, she would have thought she had heard it wrong.

Zhu Dahong, who was standing next to him, had several scratches on his face and neck. He was very angry. Seeing that Ma Hongxiu looked unhappy, he immediately asked, "What's wrong? Is she here?"

"Did you tell her that we had a problem and asked her to find an official she knew in the community to help us deal with it?"

"Oh, and ask her to bring some money. Fifty dollars isn't enough. Let her bring two hundred. Yes, two hundred. If that's not enough, ask her to go get some."

Zhu Dahong was very aggressive and made it clear what he arranged for Su Wanping to do. He asked for money without feeling that this matter had nothing to do with Su Wanping at all. Why should Su Wanping pay?

Ma Hongxiu put down the phone, her face gloomy: "She's not coming."

"What? She's not coming?" Zhu Dahong was so angry that she almost jumped up: "You are her daughter, and if something happens to you, she is your mother, why shouldn't she come?"

"It's okay if you don't come, just give me the money."

Money is what matters most.

Ma Hongxiu frowned: "I don't think she will take it. Just now she was like possessed by a demon, saying that I am an adult and don't owe me anything, and asked me not to ask her for anything."

Zhu Dahong was stunned for a moment. After thinking for a while, he also felt that Su Wanping was possessed by evil spirits.

"She's crazy. You're her only daughter. Isn't she afraid that you won't take care of her in her old age?"

After saying this, Zhu Dahong looked at his daughter Ma Hongxiu in front of him, and suddenly remembered that his daughter was going to live abroad and it was impossible for her to provide for Su Wanping in her old age.

She said hurriedly, "Something is wrong. I'll watch over here for you first. You go back and see if someone called her or said something to her to deceive her."

They didn't care about whether it was a scam or not. They were just afraid that the money in Su Wanping's hands would be cheated away by this person who could persuade her. Then how could they make money?
