Chapter 741: fifty cents
Chapter 741 Fifty cents
Fan Jianguo came back from closing the stall at noon when he heard from his wife that Jiang Xiaoxiao had called and asked the couple to go there in the evening.
He said that the old lady was at their house now and would not come back for lunch. She would go over and have a meal together in the evening.
Fan Jianguo didn’t think much about it.
Originally, he would usually set up his stall until eleven or twelve o'clock at night, and sometimes until one or two o'clock in the middle of the night.
However, even if their niece and sister asked them to come over to eat, they had to go there.
Otherwise, you won’t be able to find any reason.
At around 5 o'clock, Fan Jianguo carried his daughter, Liu Huili and his wife, and carried two bottles of canned food and a pack of snacks.
Liu Huili was a little nervous and her eyelids kept twitching.
Life at home is tense now. Even though they bought two bottles of cans and a pack of snacks, the couple was also distressed and panicked.
It’s ridiculous to think about it. I used to eat spicy food, so I couldn’t just pick and choose what I wanted to eat.
Now it’s better to buy two bottles of canned food and a pack of snacks, but I’m too hesitant to spend money on them.
Liu Huili really hates herself a little.
I am really a pest.
People say that marrying a virtuous wife and marrying a bad wife is a sign of ruin.
Look at Fan Jianguo marrying a troublemaker like himself. If he doesn't have a big family fortune, he will be defeated.
“Jianguo, I always feel that there are some bad signs. It’s not the eldest sister and the little ones who discovered anything.”
Fan Jianguo did not tell his sister and others about this matter, mainly because he was afraid that his sister would have objections to his daughter-in-law's natal family.
No matter who I tell this to, they will all think that it was his wife who did something good.
But it’s already like this. My daughter-in-law’s family has severed ties with her. If I blame my daughter-in-law again for this, or I don’t want her anymore.
This is not forcing this woman to die.
Fan Jianguo is not such a person. To say that he is soft-hearted is indeed soft-hearted. No matter what, this woman is still a person who gave birth to a daughter for herself.
I can't force her to die.
As a man, no matter how hard or tired you are, you can support yourself.
"It's okay, don't worry too much, I'm here."
The daughter is thin, frail and well-behaved. She is leaning on her father's arms and looking around curiously.
Because her daughter is in poor health, and her mother is also in poor health, the child spends most of the time on the kang at home with Liu Huili.
I rarely go out, so everything I see outside is very fresh.
A mother and father walked over with their child. The little boy was waving the marshmallows he had just bought in his hand and biting his mouth full of them.
“Dad, the marshmallows are so sweet.”
“You’d better eat less sugar. Too much sugar is bad for your teeth. Your teeth will get bugs.”
Xiao Jiu looked at the marshmallow with envy and stretched out her little hand.
“Sugar…sugar…”
Fan Jianguo paused. His daughter had never asked them for anything, and of course she had no chance to do so.
Standing in front of a stall selling cotton candy.
“Boss, how much does a marshmallow cost?”
Henthearted, Fan Jianguo wants to buy one.
“Fifty cents each! Want one?”
Fan Jianguo hesitated.
If this matter had happened before, even a year ago, I would have taken it out without hesitation.
Fifty cents is a ball. For Fan Jianguo, he has enjoyed both blessings and hardships in his life.
But when it came to his own daughter, he would actually hesitate to buy a marshmallow.
Because of what?
Because mother and daughter need money for medical treatment, the fifty cents sometimes comes in handy.
The hospital would not be able to allow the mother and daughter to receive medical treatment even if the money was short of one penny.
Hands trembling, I touched my pocket, but in the end I couldn't take it out.
Liu Huili grabbed his hand. As a wife, she knew best that her husband broke a penny into several petals. For their mother and daughter, the whole family was eating glutinous rice.
Even though it looks like a small marshmallow, their family can’t afford it.
Having already spent money on cans and snacks today, if we buy marshmallows again, it will make things worse for the family.
In order to make money for his family, Fan Jianguo went out with only one steamed bun or dry biscuit every day. He often did not come back for lunch and was reluctant to spend a penny outside.
My mother-in-law goes out to pick up rags all day long, just to save more money for the family.
How can you not know what is good and what is good?
The child is not sensible, so is she also ignorant?
“The child’s father! Forget it!”
What is the reason for these things? It is not just because of her.
The little boy was hugged by his father in disappointment and left the family of three. The marshmallow vendor could not help but pout.
“Who are these people? They can’t bear to buy marshmallows for their children. They are really poor people.”
He did not hide his voice at all, for fear that Fan Jianguo would not be able to hear him.
Fan Jianguo felt bitter.
He has encountered too many insults like this recently. Compared with his mother going to the market to pick up rotten vegetable leaves, the insult he received was nothing.
A family of three came to Fan Xiuying’s house.
Fan Xiuying saw her younger brother and sister-in-law coming in with their children at the gate of the hospital, and hurriedly greeted them.
"Jianguo, Xiaohui is here. Hurry and carry the child into the house. There are only two dishes left. We will start dinner soon. You go and eat some watermelon first. There are cut watermelons and washed grapes in the house."
Liu Huili quickly put the child in Fan Jianguo's arms, rolled up her sleeves and followed Fan Xiuying into the kitchen.
“Sister, let me help you cook.”
When she looked at Fan Xiuying before, she was completely unconvinced. In her mind, this eldest sister was taking advantage of her younger brother.
Besides, I married Fan Jianguo, not Fan Xiuying, so this sister would always go back to her parents' house to make the decision.
This is what she dislikes the most, but now things have developed to this point.
Seeing that her eldest aunt never had a different attitude towards them, she didn't know that Fan Jianguo hadn't said it before, and thought that her eldest aunt was sincerely doing good for them. Since she married into this family, although her eldest aunt couldn't stand her, she never could He has never shamed himself in person.
In this regard, my eldest aunt is more reasonable than she thought.
"Xiao Hui, you don't need to come in to cook. There are only two dishes left. Go in and greet the children quickly. You are not strong. The oil smoke here is so big. What should you do if you choke for a while? Come on, come in quickly. Why are you so polite to the elder sister? , coming to our home feels like being at your own home.”
Fan Xiuying kicked the person out directly.
Liu Huili looked at the busy eldest sister in the kitchen, her eyes couldn't help but turn red again.
In the past, I was too narrow-minded and always felt that others were taking advantage of me in many things.
Seeing that Fan Jianguo was almost obedient to Jiang Xiaoxiao, his niece, and was very kind to his sister and brother-in-law, she felt envious and jealous in her heart. She felt that Fan Xiuying was a huge advantage in their family, and her husband was a Big fool.
But of course she knew it now.
These are real brothers and sisters, they have no biological differences with each other at all, and this eldest sister is already good enough to me.
I knew that she was not in good health, but I never came to my aunt’s house for dinner and she never touched her.
Compared with my mother’s family, the people in my mother-in-law’s family are so good that they can reach heaven.
