Chapter 127: Risky Decision - The Sickly Young Girl's Daily Life of Eating Watermelons in the Courtyard

Maybe it was because of the chat with Fu Huihui and Wang Jiaojiao about Wang Qiaomei at noon, which led Lin Qing to secretly observe Wang Qiaomei's condition after returning to the compound.

Then this one look made her realize the difference.

Her complexion was exactly as Aunt Li described, even paler than her own, but something was wrong!

What Aunt Li said happened several days ago, how come he is still like this today? This is too strange, could a minor cold be so serious?

A lot of questions popped up in Lin Qing's mind.

But compared to the two Su brothers who were just discharged from the hospital today, Wang Qiaomei's condition seems too serious!

Lin Qing silently kept this situation in mind and started preparing dinner!

Since she was eating alone, she didn't plan to cook anything too complicated. She just wanted a simple meal. She made herself a bowl of noodles, put an egg in it, and then added a few pieces of bacon that she brought back from her mother's house.

"Mmm~ It smells so good!"

"Burp!" Lin Qing burped with satisfaction after eating and drinking enough.

I was sitting paralyzed in the chair when I heard the noise coming from outside again.

Here it comes, here it comes, the excitement is here again.

Lin Qing's eyes lit up, and he immediately moved a chair to the door and sat down. He quietly pried open the door and looked outside.

Oh no? Aunt Su? What happened?

Is that Zhou Qin sitting opposite her?

Oh, it really is!

"Zhou Qin, when will your family pay us for the medical expenses of our Da Zhuang and Er Zhuang?" Aunt Su said while hugging Zhou Qin.

"What medical expenses? Why should I pay you for medical expenses?" Zhou Qin didn't understand what Aunt Su was talking about.

Aunt Su was so angry at his tone and expression that she choked on his throat and spat out blood.

"Zhou Qin, what's wrong with you? How can you default on your debt? We just agreed on this two days ago!"

"When did I tell you?" Zhou Qin didn't remember such a thing.

"You still say that we haven't agreed on it yet, but you clearly have already agreed on it with your sister Lian!"

"When did Sister Lian and I agree to..."

Zhou Qin stopped talking. It seems that he did say this a few days ago, but hasn’t his wife denied it?

His wife doesn't agree, so why is Aunt Su still insisting on this matter?

Yes, Qin Xianglian failed to get the medical expenses because of Aunt Li's interruption that day, and finally took a job of sweeping the streets. Although she eventually gave this job to Zhou Qin, she finally returned empty-handed this time.

Finally, when returning to the hospital, Qin Xianglian had to take out her family savings, otherwise, she was afraid that she would not even be able to pay for the medical bills.

Aunt Su was really disappointed with this. She had taught her all the methods, but she still failed?

So, she came here on her own as soon as she was discharged from the hospital. Anyway, Aunt Su was determined to make the Zhou family take responsibility for this matter.

It’s a pity that Zhou Qin today is no longer the same person he was two days ago. Moreover, how could Aunt Su, an old lady with wrinkled face, arouse his pity like Qin Xianglian did?

Aunt Su thought that if she mentioned Qin Xianglian, Zhou Qin would obediently take out the money, but she didn't expect that Zhou Qin actually started to giggle.

"…" She was so confused! Is there something wrong with Zhou Qin?

"Zhou Qin, Zhou Qin, speak up, didn't you promise before?"

"That was in the past. It's gone now." Zhou Qin said in a shameless manner. Even if he remembered it, so what? He could just lie about it.

“…”

"How could you do this? You can't do this. You have to keep your word..." Aunt Su wanted to talk about some more profound principles.

Unfortunately, Zhou Qin was a bad boy and he simply refused to listen.

"Don't talk so much to me. I have no money now anyway." His IQ was a little higher this time. "Besides, Aunt Li has already said it before. Su Dazhuang and Su Erzhuang had it all their own fault. We didn't ask our family to pay for the medical expenses!"

"..." Aunt Su really didn't expect that she would use Aunt Li's words to pressure her.

Lin Qing hid by the door and watched, and always felt that Aunt Su was helpless against this silly boy Zhou Qin.

Only Wang Qiaomei smiled secretly in the room.

She knew she had made the right bet.

She touched her belly and thought about the risky decision she made a few days ago.

Ever since Qin Xianglian came to Zhou Qin to ask for medical expenses, she knew that the money would not be safe in Zhou Qin's hands, so for her future, she had to keep all the money in Zhou Qin's hands.

However, she also knew that Zhou Qin would never honestly hand over his salary to her, so Wang Qiaomei made a risky decision.

Of course, this decision was made not only to get Zhou Qin's money, but mainly to find a suitable excuse for the child in her belly.

That night, she secretly told Zhou Qin, "Brother Qin, I think I'm pregnant."

"Huh? Huh? Don't lie to me. We haven't even been married for a month, how come you're pregnant?" No matter how stupid Zhou Qin was, he knew it was impossible!

"No, it's like this. I should have had my period yesterday, but it hasn't come yet. I was very regular before, so it's impossible for it to be delayed, so I must be pregnant."

"Ah? Is that so?" Zhou Qin was somewhat confused by what she said.

"Of course it is! You are my only man. If it's not yours, who else can it belong to?" Wang Qiaomei said shyly.

After Zhou Qin thought about it for a long time, he finally accepted her opinion.

"Hehehe! I, Zhou Qin, am finally going to have a son?" He felt happy when he thought of this.

Seeing how stupid he was, Wang Qiaomei was afraid that he would accidentally tell others about this matter. Experienced people outside would not be as ignorant as Zhou Qin, who was easily fooled by her.

So Wang Qiaomei said to Zhou Qin: "Brother Qin, you can't tell anyone that I'm pregnant now."

"Why?" Zhou Qin's laughter stopped abruptly.

"This is for the safety of the child. It's best not to publicize it in the first three months. We all have this folk custom."

For the sake of his child's safety, Zhou Qin immediately agreed, "Okay, okay! I won't tell you. I won't tell you."

"That's right."

Taking advantage of Zhou Qin's happiness, Wang Qiaomei also teased Qin Xianglian and the others, "Brother Qin, do you know why I didn't come back last night?"

"Why?"

Wang Qiaomei said sadly: "We almost lost our baby. I wanted to go to the bathhouse yesterday, but when I got there, I suddenly felt a pain in my stomach and felt something was wrong, so I ran to the hospital. The doctor said I was already showing signs of miscarriage."

Zhou Qin immediately became nervous when she heard about the miscarriage. "How are you now? Are you feeling unwell? Do you want to go to the hospital right now?"
