Aunt Huang's eyes flickered and she retorted loudly, "How is that possible? My family needs money now. I can't wait to sell it tomorrow."
Song Dahua was just testing the waters at first, but after seeing Aunt Huang's reaction, she felt it was true.
She stared at Aunt Huang coldly: "Mom, you only have Xiaobao as your grandson. What if you don't have time to treat him and his illness gets worse?"
Xiaobao has a congenital heart disease. If he had undergone surgery when he was a child, there was a high chance that he would have recovered.
In the past, Song Dahua worked hard to save money, just thinking about getting Xiaobao treated as soon as possible.
But she didn't expect that Xiaobao's father had used all the money for medical treatment to gamble and owed a large sum of money, and Xiaobao's illness suddenly worsened.
Originally, Aunt Huang was willing to sell the shop to pay for Xiaobao's medical treatment, and Song Dahua was filled with gratitude. But now she knew that Aunt Huang might be playing tricks, which would directly result in Xiaobao having no money for medical treatment, and she couldn't control her emotions at all.
"Mom, the doctor has said that if Xiaobao doesn't have surgery, we don't know if he will ever recover. I beg you, don't ask for such a high price. Sell the shop and give Xiaobao treatment."
"Xiaobao is your only grandson."
Song Dahahua also asked Xiaobao to beg Aunt Huang.
Xiao Bao looked at Aunt Huang innocently and said, "Grandma, can you cure my illness? I will definitely be filial to you in the future."
Aunt Huang's tears flowed down. She was reluctant to do so, but she had already wanted to sell the shop. Why was her daughter-in-law forcing her to do so?
Song Dahua gently pushed Xiaobao and pushed him into Aunt Huang's arms.
"Mom, Xiaobao is your only grandson. Our family will depend on Xiaobao in the future."
As for Xiaobao’s father, Song Dahua now pretends that person doesn’t exist.
Xiaobao raised the bun in his hand to Aunt Huang's mouth.
"Grandma, eat the buns."
"Grandma's Xiaobao." Aunt Huang hugged Xiaobao, tears streaming down her face.
Song Dahua was crying beside her. She knew her mother-in-law was reluctant to let her son go, but she only had this one son, so she had to find a way to cure his illness.
Aunt Huang and Song Dahahua were both crying, and Xiaobao started crying too.
Song Dahua was worried about his illness, so she quickly coaxed him, "Don't cry, Xiaobao. Grandma will definitely pay for your treatment. The doctor said you can't cry, or you'll feel uncomfortable."
Xiaobao was coaxed by Song Dahahua for a while before he slowly calmed down.
Aunt Huang also calmed down at this time.
She understood what Song Dahahua meant. Her son was already disabled, and now Xiaobao was the only grandson in the family. If she insisted on not treating Xiaobao, and Xiaobao had an accident and her daughter-in-law passed away, she would be the only one left in the family.
By then, what use will it be even if she has a house and a shop?
"Dahua, I'll go to the cake shop tomorrow and find someone to sell it to them for 6,000 yuan."
When Aunt Huang said this, her face was full of reluctance.
Song Dahua quickly reminded: "Mom, if the other party thinks it's too expensive, just ask them how much they are willing to pay. The doctor said that the sooner Xiaobao has the procedure done, the better his recovery will be."
Aunt Huang looked at Xiaobao again and nodded silently.
Song Dahua handed Aunt Huang a bun and promised that as long as Xiaobao's illness was cured, she would stay and live a good life with Aunt Huang.
When Aunt Huang saw that she didn't mention her son at all, she smiled bitterly.
Forget it, let’s cure my grandson’s illness first.
When Aunt Huang went to the cake shop the next day, her tone was much better.
She arrived a little early. The cake shop had just opened and there were no customers yet. However, Qi Mengmeng was busy inside and Du Yuanyuan was still outside.
"Auntie, you're here? I'll go call my sister-in-law."
Du Yuanyuan was shocked. She didn't expect Aunt Huang to be so anxious to sell the shop. This was not a good thing.
She moved a chair for Aunt Huang to sit down, and then went inside to call Qi Mengmeng.
"Sister-in-law, Aunt Huang is here again. Judging from her expression, this shop must be sold."
Qi Mengmeng didn't expect Aunt Huang to come so early, but she was mentally prepared and was not panicked at all.
"Just watch this cake. It will be ready in five minutes."
Qi Mengmeng asked Du Yuanyuan to watch the stove and she went out.
Du Yuanyuan was a little anxious and wanted to know whether Qi Mengmeng would buy the shop, but Qi Mengmeng had already given her the oven of cakes and she couldn't leave.
Du Yuanyuan stared at the watch, hoping that time would pass faster.
Outside, Aunt Huang saw Qi Mengmeng and immediately stood up: "What do you think? Are you planning to buy this shop?"
As the saying goes: He who speaks first loses.
As soon as Aunt Huang spoke, Qi Mengmeng knew that she was anxious to sell the shop, so she would probably give in on the price.
"Auntie, I want to buy the shop, but the price you mentioned yesterday is definitely not right. If you really want to sell it, just tell me a real price."
Aunt Huang didn't hesitate any longer and said the price she had in mind: "Then it's six thousand yuan."
Qi Mengmeng smiled and said, "Auntie, I want to buy your shop, but I don't want to be taken advantage of. You can ask around to see if there is any shop that can sell it for the price you mentioned."
"I renovated this house. The price you quoted has to be deducted from the remaining rent and the money I spent on the renovation. It's clearly written in our contract."
Aunt Huang's face began to look unhappy. She didn't want to sell the shop, but when she thought about her daughter-in-law's expression, she finally endured it.
"If you don't want to buy it, I'll put a piece of paper outside, and someone else will buy the shop. You can't blame me."
Aunt Huang said expressionlessly.
"If someone buys this shop, you have to pay me back for the rent and renovation money."
Qi Mengmeng also refused to give in.
Come on, let's hurt each other.
Aunt Huang was speechless for a moment. She knew that the price she asked for was expensive, but wasn't she just waiting for the other party to bargain?
She felt that the money she offered was much more generous than the eight thousand she had asked for at the beginning.
But in the same way, Qi Mengmeng was also muttering in her heart.
Does Aunt Huang really want to sell the shop? If she is sincere, she should at least find a real seller. She won’t ask for such an exorbitant price. Is she waiting for her to pay back the money on the spot?
"I have already renovated the shop and am willing to continue working here. If you are willing to sell the shop to me, I will pay you 4,500 yuan."
Qi Mengmeng thought about it and gave Aunt Huang a price.
Aunt Huang glared at Qi Mengmeng. How could someone bargain so hard? She just gave up 1,500 yuan.
Qi Mengmeng: You want too much.
Aunt Huang gritted her teeth and said, "Five thousand five hundred yuan, not a penny less."
Qi Mengmeng: Do I look like a sucker?
...After some bargaining, Qi Mengmeng gave Aunt Huang another 5,000 yuan, not including the previous rent and decoration costs.
This price was much lower than what Aunt Huang had expected. Although she accepted it, her unhappiness showed on her face.
Qi Mengmeng felt that the price was a little high, but she was worried that Aunt Huang would not sell it and other troubles would arise, so she agreed.
