After Ye Xiangqin returned home, she saw her son washing clothes and ran over in a panic to grab the clothes. The cold water in early spring was still very cold. How could she bear to let her precious son wash clothes?
"Aren't these the cotton pants you wore this morning? Why do you need to wash them?"
Liu Dabao burst into tears as he looked at his mother. He then described Huo Qigang's situation in vivid detail, even mentioning the time he wet his pants.
In his heart, he was hoping that his mother would help him vent his anger, but Ye Xiangqin felt something was wrong after hearing this and rushed into the house.
As soon as I entered the house, I found that the lock of my door was smashed. This is terrible!
Ye Xiangqin's heart sank instantly, because her room showed signs of being severely ransacked. It seemed that the bastard must have stolen the money.
When she saw the cash box that should have been behind the cabinet now appeared on her bed, she was completely heartbroken.
Without saying a word, she rushed out with the box. When she passed by the yard, she could not see her son standing there at all. At this moment, the only thought in her mind was that it was all over.
Soon, Huo Qigang looked at his stepmother who rushed back angrily, and a smile unconsciously appeared on the corner of his lips.
"Give me back the money. How could you steal money when you're so old?"
"If you take the money, how will our family live?" Ye Xiangqin collapsed on the ground and started crying. Huo Chengwen on the hospital bed was also stunned.
I thought that my son borrowed money for my medical expenses, but I didn't expect that he actually stole it while Xiangqin was not at home. This...!
"Aunt Qin, you've given me money to pay for my father's medical expenses. Do you want him to get better?"
"Besides, that money was earned by my father and me. What's wrong with me using it to treat my father now?"
"You...ni..." Ye Xiangqin was almost speechless. If she dared to say that the money could not be used, would Huo Chengwen forgive her in the future?
"Xiangqin, he didn't waste the money. He just wanted me to get better soon. Don't be angry. When I get better and come home, you won't have to run around all day."
Ye Xiangqin almost fainted.
After mumbling a few words, he said, "Even if you're paying for your father's medical expenses, you can't take it all. There's nothing to eat at home. Do you have any money left?"
“Gone!”
"you....."
"Xiangqin, why don't you sell this watch?" Huo Chengwen quickly responded.
It's a sad time at home, so I might as well pawn this watch, which will temporarily relieve the urgent need.
Ye Xiangqin looked at the watch that Huo Chengwen took off his wrist. This was a good watch, a Shanghai brand. It cost her several months' wages to buy it.
This is the only way we can do now, otherwise we will hardly be able to make ends meet at home!
"Then Old Huo, I'll go sell it first..." Ye Xiangqin walked forward pitifully and took it, not forgetting to squeeze out a few tears, showing her embarrassment to the fullest.
Huo Chengwen felt very uncomfortable seeing this. If he hadn't been disabled, his life wouldn't have turned out like this. Ultimately, it was all that dead girl's fault.
"Go!" Huo Chengwen then waved his hand and told Ye Xiangqin to leave quickly.
Huo Qigang's eyes were red with anger. How could he have forgotten about the watch?
