Chapter 1: Sick and not paying the bills, the husband buys a house for Bai Yueguang
2007, Hai City First People’s Hospital.
"Ms. Xia, you have been in arrears for a week. You have been saying that your family will come to pay for you, but no one has paid. It is difficult for us to handle it. Besides, your illness cannot be delayed. If you don't have surgery now, it may be too late."
"Well, we will keep your bed for you for one more day. Go home and get the money to pay. If you can't pay, we will have to give the bed to other patients in need."
The nurse reluctantly gave the old woman in front of her an ultimatum.
She was only 48 years old, but she looked as old as she was in her 60s or 70s, with wrinkles all over her face and a gray complexion. Apart from her illness, it was more due to the torture of life.
"I understand, Nurse Liu. I'm sorry. I will find a way to pay the money and won't make it difficult for you."
There was a flash of embarrassment in Xia Xian's eyes, but she still made an apologetic promise, then put on her coat and staggered towards home.
She has a malignant tumor, which was discovered at the right time. If she is treated well, she can live for three to five years, or even longer. If she is not treated...
She was in the hospital for a total of ten days from the time she was diagnosed with the disease to the time she was hospitalized. She only paid for the first three days. Her husband and daughter said they were going home to get the money, but they never came back.
She called back and at first they said they were busy and couldn't come, and asked her to hold on. Later they said they were raising money for her medical expenses, and after that they stopped answering the phone.
But she believed that her daughter and husband did not do it on purpose. They must have been held up by something, or they were raising money and had no time to answer the phone.
With hope in her heart, she dragged her sick body and walked for more than an hour until she got home, only to find that the house was empty. She didn't have the key and couldn't even get in.
Xia Xian hung her head in disappointment, and suddenly seemed to remember something. She walked to the next door, but found that their door was also locked and there was no one there.
For some reason, Xia Xian's heart skipped a beat, as if she had a premonition of something. At this moment, Sister Wang, who lived behind their house, passed by on a motorcycle and found her standing there. She stopped the motorcycle curiously and greeted her.
"Xia Xian, what are you still doing here? Why are you still dressed like this? Today is Nan Nan and Xiao Jun's wedding, and it's also your family's new home day. It's a double happiness. As the hostess, why are you running back here instead of taking care of things over there? I was just about to go to your new house for the wedding wine."
"But you and Lao Chu are really generous. Xiao Jun and his mother didn't have money to buy a house for their wedding, but you two bought one for them and let his mother move in with him, leaving you to live in this shabby house. Sometimes I don't know what you are trying to do, giving your daughter a house when she gets married."
Sister Wang was quite sad, obviously not understanding her behavior.
Xia Xian felt a sharp pain in her heart when she heard this. She clenched her fists tightly, her teeth sinking into the dry flesh of her lips, almost bleeding, and her expression was blank!
Chu Nannan is her daughter, and Xiao Jun is the neighbor's son, but she doesn't know anything about them whether they are getting married or buying or giving away houses!
Besides, why did Chu Nannan marry Xiao Jun when she could marry anyone else? Xiao Jun's mother grew up with her husband, but she was five years older than him. She got married early when she was young and divorced early. When her son was seven years old, she took him back to her mother's house!
She was originally going to marry Boss Chu, but he fell seriously ill and kept it secret from her, so he made her marry him. He passed away a week after their marriage.
The second son was also old enough to get married, but the Chu family was poor and he could not afford to marry. He was willing to marry Mr. Chu because he was handsome and honest, and he did not ask for any dowry. If he had given a proper dowry, neither brother of the Chu family would have been able to marry!
Later, when she wanted to go home, Chu's mother begged her not to leave and forced her to live with Chu Lao Er. She asked her to make do and have at least two children, one in the eldest son's lineage and one in the second son's lineage, saying that co-parenting has always been the rule. She agreed out of pity.
It’s a pity that she only gave birth to one daughter, Chu Nannan, in all these years, but she thinks she has not done anything sorry to the Chu family!
She has to work to earn money and take care of the children, be filial to her mother-in-law, do laundry and cooking! Her salary is used for living expenses, and Chu Laoer keeps his salary for himself. Sometimes it is not enough, so he asks her to give him some money! He doesn't care about his family, but he helps the family next door from time to time, saying that she is his sister who grew up with him. Seeing how pitiful she is, and the child is innocent, he can't bear to ignore her.
The two of them would quarrel whenever they talked about this, but so many years had passed and they now had a daughter, so she could only live her life in a muddle.
Xiao Jun has been a nobody since he was little. He has done everything from sowing discord, framing others, and stealing! She told her daughter to stay away from him, but how come she is going to marry him in the blink of an eye!
What on earth did these two people do behind her back?
Although there was no wind, Xia Xian felt like she was standing on the street in the dead of winter. She was shivering from the cold.
For a moment, I didn't know whether to feel heartbroken for my husband or my daughter.
"Xia Xian? Are you okay? What's wrong..."
"Sister Wang, please take me there!"
Before Sister Wang finished speaking, Xia Xian rushed over, grabbed her arm, and looked pleading with tears in her eyes.
"OK."
Sister Wang knew something was wrong, so she just took her over in silence.
She hurried over and happened to see the bride and groom greeting their parents and serving tea!
How ironic, in the bright new house, Chu Sheng and Xiao Jun's mother Bai Lian sat side by side, accepting her daughter's tea ceremony, and the two smiled at each other intimately. If you didn't know, you would think they were a couple! Her daughter is also an ungrateful person!!!
Xia Xian was so angry when she saw this scene that she almost had a cerebral hemorrhage. Years of grievances and resentment made her explode in an instant. She rushed forward regardless of anything, snatched Chu Sheng's teacup, and smashed it directly into his face with a bang, causing his nose to bleed. She just wanted to vent her anger!
"Grass!"
"Ah! Mom! Why are you here!"
"Xia Xian! Are you crazy?"
"You bitch!"
"How could Xia Xian be so ignorant, making a scene on such an important day!"
Xia Xian didn't care about anyone's reaction. Her eyes were full of madness. She grabbed Bai Lian's hair and raised her hand, wanting only to slap this shameless woman a few times. However, the slap was stopped by someone midway. It was Xiao Jun!
"How dare you hit my mom! Get out!"
Xiao Jun was furious. Before Xia Xian could break free, she was kicked and flew out. The back of her head hit the wall hard and she slid to the ground.
Xia Xian was already at the end of her strength, her body was weak, she was furious, and after being kicked and hit, she died! Her eyes were wide open, as if they were about to fall out, and even tears of blood were flowing from her eyes. She died with her eyes open!
She hated it! She hated it so much! Why didn't she recognize the true colors of these people earlier! Why didn't she give her a chance to take revenge! Why why why!
Even if she becomes a ghost, she will not let these people go!
Xia Xian was unwilling to accept this, but her life still passed away with the wind, and her consciousness fell into darkness.
The last thing to disappear after death is hearing. She heard her daughter’s disdain for ruining her big day. Bai Lian cried out of grievance. Chu Sheng coaxed her and scolded her at the same time, saying that he should not have married Xia Xian, a rag and a crazy woman...
I don’t know when they will find out that Xia Xian is dead.
The moment Xia Xian’s hearing disappeared, she should have died completely, but her body twitched twice and she suddenly opened her eyes!
