352 Social Death
Uncle Wang nodded repeatedly and said that he would give Gao Qinghe an explanation, but now he was more worried about Qi Lianxin's physical condition.
"Xiao Gao, why don't you take your mother-in-law to the clinic near the community for a checkup? Don't worry, I'll pay for the medical expenses. If anything happens, I'll take full responsibility."
People living here can't escape, so health is indeed more important.
Gao Qinghe nodded and was about to take her mother-in-law to the health center.
Qi Lianxin suddenly said, "You don't have to take full responsibility."
Then he shook his head and said softly to Gao Qinghe, "Forget it, I'm fine, let's go back first."
Qi Lianxin had already seen his granddaughter waiting outside obediently with her things in her hands. He felt sorry for her catching a cold and being scared, and didn't want to pursue the matter further.
"Really, I'm fine, let's go." Qi Lianxin pulled Gao Qinghe's hand again, motioning her to go.
Wang Xin was about to say something, but Uncle Wang glared at him fiercely and he turned his head away in dissatisfaction.
Gao Qinghe whispered to her mother-in-law, "Don't you need their apology?"
Qi Lianxin lowered his head, wishing that no one could see him, and said in a low and embarrassed voice:
"It's so embarrassing. I want to go home."
"Who are you embarrassing?" Gao Qinghe corrected unhappily, "The one embarrassing is that lunatic."
But since her mother-in-law didn't want to pursue the matter, Gao Qinghe couldn't continue to insist.
Because she knew that if she didn't leave, her mother-in-law would die.
Gao Qinghe pulled a business card from her bag and tossed it to Wang Xin. "Open your eyes and see clearly. Not only can I buy scarves for 5,000 yuan, I can also buy scarves for 50,000 or 500,000 yuan!"
Without looking at Wang Xin's angry face, he protected his mother-in-law and left.
Wait a moment.
Gao Qinghe turned around and walked back, saying to the old men and women watching the show:
"Everyone saw what happened today, and it's clear who's right and who's wrong. My mother-in-law is generous, but I'm not. I hope the uncles and aunts will say what they should say and not say what they shouldn't say. If I hear any rumors..."
Gao Qinghe paused for a moment, and swept his oppressive gaze over everyone present, forcing them to hold their breath. Suddenly, he smiled and said:
"I will find the person and sue him for defamation."
He was smiling and didn't look angry at all.
But it was just like this that made everyone feel cold.
Being able to control his emotions freely at such a young age is something that not everyone can possess.
"baby."
Hearing his mother's call, Jiang Qiyue immediately followed his mother and grandmother.
After returning home, Jiang Qiyue ran up to check on his grandmother.
"Grandma, are you okay?"
Qi Lianxin shook his head, touched his granddaughter's little face with emotion, and smiled again, saying that he was fine and she shouldn't worry.
Jiang Qiyue said in a baby voice: "Bad guys bully grandma, Yueyue helps grandma beat them up!"
Just with these words, Qi Lianxin wanted to take out his heart and give it to her.
Gao Qinghe put the dishes she brought for her husband on the dining table, asked her daughter to take care of her grandmother, went to the bathroom, filled a basin with hot water, brought it to the living room, and asked Qi Lianxin to wipe her face.
"Mom, lift your head so I can see your neck."
Qi Lianxin raised his head awkwardly, "It's really okay."
"It's all red!" Gao Qinghe glared at her angrily, "Aren't you usually quite formidable when arguing with me? How come you only say one word when being bullied?"
Bully at home!
Although Gao Qinghe did not say these three words, Qi Lianxin heard them by reading his mind.
At my age, I am still being called an old liar. I can't help but feel wronged when I think about it.
After being criticized by Gao Qinghe again, her pretended strength was shattered in an instant. She covered her face with a handkerchief and secretly shed tears.
Jiang Qiyue was naive and touched the handkerchief with her little hands. "It's cold, grandma. Be careful not to get sick."
He reached out to pull the "shame veil" off grandma's face.
Qi Lianxin quickly wiped his face, lowered his head and dipped the handkerchief in hot water again to cover his neck.
Gao Qinghe stood in front of the sofa with his legs apart and his arms folded, staring at her. He glanced at the cashmere scarf he bought for his mother-in-law out of the corner of his eye.
Cashmere is fragile to begin with, and after being pulled, it became wrinkled beyond recognition.
Qi Lianxin also saw it and felt a pang of pain in his heart again.
She asked in surprise, "Didn't you say this scarf was fifty yuan? Why five thousand?"
Gao Qinghe: "I was just kidding you."
Qi Lianxin stood up quickly, his voice rising instantly: "You really want five thousand?"
Gao Qinghe nodded expressionlessly, signaling his daughter to give him grandma's scarf. Holding the wrinkled scarf, he became more and more angry.
How could it just go like this? She must get back the five thousand yuan!
Qi Lianxin was still in shock that a scarf cost him two years' salary. The social ruin and financial loss made him sit down on the sofa, looking as if he had been struck by lightning, and fell into deep thought.
Jiang Qiyue still doesn't know the difference between five thousand yuan and five yuan and fifty cents.
But she knew that her parents had money, lots and lots of money.
So he patted his grandmother's legs with his little hands and comforted her: "It's okay, grandma, mommy has money."
Meaning, don't feel bad about a scarf.
Qilian's heart was bleeding, and she was in so much pain that she forgot about her own death.
After carrying her granddaughter to sit on the sofa, she got up and went to the room, then took out an exquisitely packaged box and handed it to Gao Qinghe, whose eyes were scanning the box like X-rays.
Gao Qinghe took it and said, "Okay, the case is solved. The 1,888 yuan brand-name scarf that broke Uncle Wang's daughter's heart is here!"
A basic style, far inferior to her custom-made one.
"When did you receive it? You didn't even throw away the packaging, and the tag is still there. You've never worn it."
When Qilian heard Gao Qinghe's words, it was as if he was saying: Old man, you are quite secretive.
In Qi Lianxin's opinion, widows are already very taboo. If they are involved with men, they will be criticized.
But she couldn't control her heart. When she felt Uncle Wang's care and concern, she felt sweet and beautiful.
That's why he never denied it and always maintained a tacit understanding with Uncle Wang.
Neither of them broke through that thin layer of window paper.
Because it was a relationship between an old man and an old woman, Qi Lianxin felt it was shameful to tell others about it.
In fact, the neighbors who were dancing with them had already noticed it, but since they didn't admit it, no one asked them about it.
Until today, it was exposed by Wang Xin.
Qi Lianxin only then realized that Uncle Wang actually bought a diamond ring worth ten thousand yuan.
Disbelief, slight joy, fear, worry, panic and other emotions all surged up, bombarding Qi Lianxin's head and making it buzz.
But now, she has thought it through.
This nonsense must end, today.
"Xiao He, I was wrong, but you have to believe me. I really only accepted his gift this one time, and I didn't even dare to open it. Please help me return it. I won't have any contact with him in the future."
I don't know why, but I had clearly made up my mind to distance myself from it, but as I spoke, I couldn't help but choked up.
Jiang Qiyue looked at his grandmother and then at his mother worriedly.
Gao Qinghe smiled at her daughter and shook her head to indicate that it was okay. She looked down at the gift that made her mother-in-law feel "sinful" and sighed softly.
"Let's talk about it when Yueyue's father comes back."
Qilian was anxious, but he didn't dare let Xiaohai know this!
Gao Qinghe said, "This is not a small matter, Mom. I really can't handle it anymore."
