Ma Hongxiu suppressed her disgust and proposed a solution that she had thought of last night. She thought that this solution was very considerate of her adoptive mother Su Wanping.
"Mom, don't say such angry words. If you don't want to sell the house, that's fine. You can mortgage the house to the credit union and let me use the money first. When I have money later, I can pay back the credit union. That's fine too."
"That way, you don't have to move."
“It’s just that there are a lot of approval procedures in the middle.”
As she spoke, she sat down on the stool next to her.
Li Yutong was originally taking care of her aunt in the ward. In the morning, she wanted to go to the cafeteria to buy some buns and porridge for her aunt. Ma Hongxiu came here during this opportunity.
"Aren't you pushing me into a desperate situation? When you go abroad and arrive in the United States, and you don't answer my calls, how can I get the money to repay the loan from the credit union?" Su Wanping is not stupid. The interest rates on loans are very high now.
If you really need money urgently, you won't want to borrow money with interest unless it's absolutely necessary.
Ma Hongxiu felt a little annoyed: "You can't do this, and you can't do that. What do you want?"
Su Wanping found it funny when she heard this: "The house is mine, I don't want to sell it. It's such a simple thing, why should I explain it to you?"
"I am your daughter. I am short of money now. If I don't ask you for it, who else can I ask?" With just a few words, Ma Hongxiu revealed her true colors again.
She didn't want to give Su Wanping a good look at all.
Su Wanping gasped angrily, "Why don't you ask your real parents for it? Your parents, your big brother and your second brother, they call each other very affectionately, don't they? Why don't you ask them?"
"What can I do? They are so poor that they are about to suck my blood. Where can I get the money?" Ma Hongxiu became annoyed.
Looking at her like this, the expression on the face of the person in the next bed is very interesting. How can there be such a shameless person? He raised her and didn't remember the kindness. He tried his best to force his adoptive mother to death.
Isn't she a vampire?
As Su Wanping listened, she could not help but close her eyes. She felt that Ma Hongxiu was like a bug, a tick, which had stuck its head in her flesh, constantly drinking her blood and drilling into her flesh.
If she wanted to pull her out, it would be impossible.
"There's no way I'm going to sell the house, so just give up on that idea," she said.
Ma Hongxiu's face was darker than the bottom of a pot: "Mom, you are so heartless, right? Are you going to push me into a dead end?"
Su Wanping knew that no matter what she said to her, she would not stop unless she sold the house for 200,000 yuan.
She simply closed her eyes and said nothing.
"I'm talking to you, are you deaf?" Ma Hongxiu reached out to grab Su Wanping in frustration.
Since she was a child, Ma Hongxiu has understood her adoptive mother's temper very well. She is not afraid of a weak old lady like her at all.
"Hey, just talk, why do you have to use force?" The old lady in the next bed couldn't bear to watch it anymore.
"When did I do anything? Are you old and blind?" Ma Hongxiu was angry. The old lady next to her was wearing old clothes and looked like a poor old woman. How could she have a say?
"Hey, how can you talk like that? Do you want to be beaten?" The person sitting next to the old lady seemed to be her son. When he heard his mother being scolded, he immediately became angry.
Ma Hongxiu looked at the fierce man with fear, turned around quickly, and complained to Su Wanping in a low voice: "See, it's all you who caused me trouble."
Su Wanping didn't even want to hear such unreasonable and shameless words.
"I'm talking to you." She was about to pull again.
"Sister-in-law? It's really you. Are you really in the hospital?" An old lady with gray hair and a Hu Lan hairstyle suddenly walked into the ward. When she saw Su Wanping, she was stunned.
"Sister-in-law?" Su Wanping hurried to sit up.
"Don't get up, don't get up, just sit here." The old lady hurried forward, pressed Su Wanping down, and asked her to sit down. She couldn't help but ask, "What happened to you? You were fine, why are you in the hospital?"
Although she asked this question, she glanced to the side and examined it carefully.
"This is, Hong Xiu?"
Ma Hongxiu went abroad more than 20 years ago, and she had completely forgotten what Ma Hongxiu looked like.
This time, she also heard in the village that Ma Hongxiu was returning to China and was going to sell her house. This was a big deal, so she thought of coming to the county town to see the situation.
Ma Hongxiu is not a good person. It was seen in the early years that she is just an impolite and uneducated girl.
When Ma Hongxiu saw her nominal aunt, she just looked at her, frowned, and said nothing.
"Where is my brother?" Su Wanping asked anxiously, holding her sister-in-law's hand.
She thought about it all night yesterday. Her health was not good. If Ma Hongxiu got angry to death and she had to inherit her estate, then she and Ma Guoming would die with regrets even if they were lying in the coffin.
"She's in the back. She said she wanted to buy you something." said her sister-in-law.
"No matter what you buy, I'm very happy that you can come." Su Wanping thought about the fact that although her elder brother and sister-in-law didn't interact much over the years, they would still ask Ma Shuai to send her some things. She couldn't help but want to cry.
Some worthless fruits and vegetables, ripe corn in the fields, fresh corn flour that had been ground, and rice dumplings for the Dragon Boat Festival, these were all the love that her elder brother and sister-in-law showed her.
To put it bluntly, even if they had other intentions, at least they showed their attitude, and people were willing to coax her for more than ten years.
As he was talking, an old man with a tall figure and a slightly hunched back came in, followed by a middle-aged man.
"Brother, you're here." Su Wanping greeted with red eyes.
At this moment, she felt less lonely, as she had someone she could rely on besides Ma Hongxiu.
Ma Guoxi was an old man who looked skinny, frowning, and difficult to approach. He hummed and looked at Ma Hongxiu.
Ma Hongxiu frowned and glanced at him, feeling annoyed. This Ma Guoxi looked so much older, why wasn't he dead yet?
Ma Guoxi could see the disgust in her eyes and snorted, "You must be Hong Xiu, right? You finally returned to China. Are you thinking of coming back to take care of your adoptive mother until she dies?"
Ma Hongxiu didn't like to hear Ma Guoxi's sarcastic words since she was a child. Only people like Hua Guo, who are backward in thinking and treat their children as their personal property, would say such words that are against human rights.
But she couldn't refute what Ma Guoxi said most of the time.
This time, she could only pretend not to hear it.
"Why don't you stand up? What on earth did you learn abroad? I am your uncle and you are my niece. You sit and I stand?" Ma Guoxi had a very loud voice and he started shouting angrily.
Ma Hongxiu realized belatedly that she seemed to have to stand up.
She stood up with a frown on her face: "Just stand up, what's the point of making a fuss?"
"You dare to talk back? Go out and ask which family has the same rules as yours?" Ma Guoxi scolded.
He thought that he was the elder uncle and could discipline this uneducated niece.
