Chapter 465: Full Moon Ceremony, Sister-in-law and Mother-in-law Didn’t Come
Jiang Jinzhou took the silver lock and gave it to Liang Xiulan.
He patted Jiang Yizhou on the shoulder and walked aside.
"How is Mom now?"
Jiang Yizhou took out a cigarette from his pocket, took out a cigarette and handed it to Jiang Jinzhou, saying, "Still the same, staying in bed all day."
Jiang Jinzhou waved his hand: "I've given up."
"Have you gone to the health center for a follow-up check?"
"I went there, got a bunch of medicine, and came back. The doctor said it would be like this from now on and it wouldn't get better."
Jiang Yizhou said this, put the cigarette in his mouth and lit it.
Jiang Jinzhou was silent for a moment, then asked, "Did those people go home and cause trouble again?"
Jiang Yizhou exhaled thick smoke and shook his head: "No!"
Jiang Jinzhou put his hands in his pockets, leaned against the wall, and asked: "What about you and sister-in-law..."
Before he finished speaking, Jiang Yizhou shook his head again: "It's impossible. We can't live together anymore."
"What about Jiang Lei?"
"He's determined to live with his mother, and I won't force him. I think I'm doing fine now. I eat well, and my family isn't hungry. I live in such a big yard by myself, and no one cares what I do. I'm very comfortable."
"I can't even spend all my monthly salary. I'll save it all and pay you back when the time comes."
Jiang Jinzhou sneered: "Five thousand, when do you plan to pay it back?"
Jiang Yizhou took a deep drag on his cigarette and smiled dreamily, "Just pay back whatever you can. I've written an IOU."
Jiang Yizhou is sometimes very stubborn. He always remembers that he owes Jiang Jinzhou five thousand yuan.
If you save fifty dollars a month, you will have enough one day.
Jiang Jinzhou didn't want to talk nonsense with such a stubborn person, so he stood up and urged them to serve the food.
Liang Xiulan took out two silver locks and put them around the child's neck. A group of people surrounded the child and amused him.
Those sitting at other tables were looking over here and whispering to each other.
"Isn't that Jiang Jinzhou's mother holding the child?"
"No, it seems to be his great aunt."
"Why doesn't he come?"
"Who knows?"
"Her mother doesn't want to come, does she? Xiulan gave birth to two children at once, and she still doesn't like them?"
"No way, even if you don't like it, you should still come. If you don't come because of this, then the Jiang family is really ignorant."
"I don't think Jiang Jinzhou's sister-in-law is here either."
"It doesn't matter whether my sister-in-law comes or not, but my mother-in-law must come."
"If they really don't come, what can you do?"
"There must be something going on, otherwise both of them wouldn't come. I remember Jiang Jinzhou seemed to have a little nephew, and he didn't come today either."
"Is your nephew sick and you're taking care of him at home?"
Everyone was talking at once, wondering why Xue Shuzhen, Zhou Yun and Jiang Lei didn't attend the full moon banquet.
But everyone just talked about it behind his back, just as a topic of conversation during dinner.
It wasn't until they finished their meal and returned home that Liu Guizhi asked Jiang Jinzhou, "Why didn't your mother come? What's wrong with her?"
She was a little worried that she and Zhang Cuifen might have beaten Xue Shuzhen up last time.
Jiang Jinzhou sat on the sofa, looking at the water cup in his hand. After a long while, he said, "My mother had a stroke and is now hemiplegic. She can't come."
"What? A stroke? When did it happen? Is it serious?"
Jiang Jinzhou shook the cup and looked at the water in the cup, a little dazed.
"Just... the past two months, I couldn't walk, couldn't talk, and my hands were shaking..."
Liu Guizhi strode over and sat across from him, her eyes filled with worry and reproach: "It's been two months, why didn't you tell us?"
"Have you been to the hospital? Have you had any examinations? Can it be cured?"
Jiang Jinzhou raised his hand and rubbed the tip of his nose, sniffing and saying, "I've seen it, checked it, and had a follow-up check. The doctor said...it can't be cured...it will be like this from now on."
My throat is swollen and sore, as if I am holding something back, and it feels very uncomfortable.
Jiang Jinzhou cleared his throat, drank some water, put down his teacup and went to the bathroom.
Liu Guizhi sat on the sofa and waved eagerly towards the kitchen.
Zhang Cuifen came out of the kitchen, walked quickly to Liu Guizhi, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"
Liu Guizhi whispered in her ear, "Jinzhou's mother had a stroke! Hemiplegia!"
Zhang Cuifen covered her mouth in surprise. "What? How could I have a stroke? When did it happen?"
"I heard it's been more than two months."
"More than two months? Oh, could it be that we beat her up and she went back home sulking and got mad at us?"
"I don't know. It seems to be quite serious. He can't walk or talk. Didn't Danyue tell you?"
Zhang Cuifen looked confused: "No, she never mentioned it to me. She's busy with the store all day, leaving early and coming back late. Tiedan and I don't know about it!"
Liu Guizhi rubbed her thighs and smacked her lips repeatedly: "Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, these two kids are quite tight-lipped. If I hadn't asked him today, he probably wouldn't have said anything."
Zhang Cuifen rubbed her face and folded her hands over her chest: "It's okay if we didn't know before, but now we know, we should go and see it, right?"
"Especially Tiedan and Xiulan, they all have to go!"
Liu Guizhi nodded: "Let's go, we have to go. Let's find some time and go see each other. After all, we are relatives."
Zhang Cuifen bumped her shoulder against Liu Guizhi and whispered, "What if she points fingers at us and complains?"
Liu Guizhi patted Zhang Cuifen on the shoulder: "Don't worry, she won't speak!"
Zhang Cuifen covered her mouth and almost laughed out loud: "Hahaha...that's good..."
Liu Guizhi smacked her lips again: "Tsk! Don't be like that. It's like we're clinging to her and something bad is happening. It's so evil. If Jinzhou sees this, he'll be worried."
Zhang Cuifen quickly suppressed her smile: "Yes, yes, yes."
"Then don't bother making time for it. Just go tomorrow."
Liu Guizhi thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll go talk to Xiulan."
"Well, I'll go back and tell Tiedan tonight."
After the two of them discussed it, Liu Guizhi went to Liang Xiulan's room.
He closed the door and walked over quietly.
After a busy morning, Liang Xiulan fell asleep as soon as she hit the bed.
She raised her hand and patted Liang Xiulan's arm twice: "Xiulan..."
Liang Xiulan was awakened by her and was startled, and the child in her arms also shuddered.
Liu Guizhi quickly reached out and patted the child.
Liang Xiulan rubbed her eyes and asked, "It's noon now, why don't you take a break?"
Liu Guizhi whispered, "Go home tomorrow and visit your mother-in-law."
Liang Xiulan was bewildered: "Why did you suddenly want to go see her?"
"His mother is sick. She had a stroke and is now hemiplegic."
As soon as these words were spoken, Liang Xiulan's sleepiness disappeared instantly.
"What? Who told you that?"
"Jinzhou said that the reason she didn't come today was because she couldn't come. She couldn't walk or talk, so only your father-in-law came."
Liang Xiulan opened her mouth halfway, too surprised to speak.
In her previous life, she was in very good health. She was able to go out to work less than half a month after having heart surgery. She was still busy working in the fields when she was in her seventies and eighties.
At the age of 75, he was still carrying water to water sweet potatoes, and at the age of 80, he was still able to grow green onions. How come he became hemiplegic in this life?
She is only in her fifties now...
