Chapter 7 Going to the County Town



If I wasn't afraid of losing, I wouldn't have handed it over to my mother.

"Get out of here! I have no money, but I'll take your life. Go ahead and sell your old mother by weight, and see how much you can squeeze out of her!"

Zhou Mingqian twitched his lips. "I don't care, Mom. My grandma said she left me money. You can't pocket it. Aren't you afraid my grandma will come after you?"

"Pah! I'll beat you to death, you little brat! I'll teach you to talk nonsense!" Old Lady Zhou grabbed a broom and started hitting him.

Zhou Mingqian dodged left and right, muttering under his breath, "Mom, are you angry out of embarrassment? Give me money to go to the hospital, the hospital, the hospital..." like an old monk chanting sutras.

Old Mrs. Zhou, who couldn't reach him, felt her temples throbbing with rage and couldn't help but roar, "Shut up! If you keep talking, I won't give it to you!"

Old Mrs. Zhou glared at her irritably. If it weren't for the fact that her deceased mother-in-law had been good to her, she wouldn't care about any last words.

"Your wife is so delicate. What are you looking at? Take it or leave it and go to the county hospital. Why don't you just fly to the sky? The commune can't even accommodate the two of you anymore." If it weren't for her deceased mother-in-law, she wouldn't care about all that.

Zhou Mingqian knew his mother's temperament, so he stopped pressing her.

Shen Banxia looked at Zhou Mingqian as he entered, and her nausea and vomiting subsided considerably. Her eyes sparkled. "Let's go to the county town tomorrow."

"Yes, aren't you happy, honey?"

Shen Banxia nodded; she happened to have something to do.

From the outside, Zhou Mingjiao, who had watched the whole thing, felt that something was amiss.
