Not only did Grandma notice the strangeness of the Song family, but Qiao Lin and they already knew. It's just that they all know that the Song family is very good-looking, and they have never asked directly like their grandmother, but secretly guessed behind their backs what kind of trouble their aunt's family encountered.

Min Jia was stunned by her grandmother that day, and she didn't think about how to prevaricate, but just said that her father could not lower his blood pressure and was observing in the hospital. When he recovered, the whole family ate together.

Grandma is a smart person, and she didn't pull Min Jia to ask questions again. When the eldest daughter returned home, she said that she wanted to go to the second child's house, and that someone in the family was sick, so she had to go and see what happened.

Li Lanzhi's expression flickered: "It's not a big deal, your eyes can't see clearly, it's almost the same when they come to see you." ”

Grandma said: "I heard Min Jia say that her father's heart disease seems to be quite serious, and he still needs surgery. ”

"Hmm...... It's not that bad, it's just a pain in the heart......"

"Don't fool me, Min Jia said, her dad has high blood pressure. ”

Li Lanzhi was dumbfounded all of a sudden.

Jiang is still old and spicy, and she was actually caught by her mother.

Grandma was really anxious: "What the hell is going on? Why are you hiding it from me?"

Grandma expected that the two of them would encounter financial difficulties, which would make them anxious, but not desperate. If things were really that simple, it would be fine, but I'm afraid that the old man would think too simply.

Song Minrou returned to China in a very low-key manner, and it was only a month since she last came back. Instead of going to Beijing, she returned to Hong Kong City. Grandma hadn't seen her, but Li Lanzhi had seen her and comforted her several times.

"Min Rou has developed very well in the United States, and it is not surprising that she should have obtained a green card in these two years and can stay in the United States forever. But something happened at home, and she had to reconsider her choice. She cried so much in the hospital that day that I was very distressed to see it. ”

Grandma's expression became more and more solemn: "The second family is short of money and lacks this one?"

"I heard the second child say that when her old Song built a house, she borrowed money from the bank in advance, and when the house was built, she returned the money from the sale of the house to the bank. He was proud of the spring breeze in the first two years, and won several pieces of land, but he knew that the house could not be sold, and he would have no money to return to the bank. The bank was tight-guarded and refused to lend him any more money. The cycle between building a house and selling a house is very important, and Yi Zhi thinks too optimistic about this cycle to end up in today's situation. ”

Grandma was silent, and it was clear that she couldn't help much. She would only repeat: "There are no young people in the village anymore, they are all buying houses in the county town...... How can you not sell it if you are buying it in a hurry?"

"I still remember that a few years ago, burdock was planted in the village, and a few households that planted it early made a small fortune, and the whole village planted it the next year...... As a result, too many plants were planted, and the prices that people came to buy were very low, and everyone was unwilling to sell them at a low price, and as a result, many of them rotted in the ground. Li Lanzhi sighed and said, "Isn't that the truth?"

The Song family at least has some background, and Song Yizhi's brothers and sisters have watched him decline? In this regard, Li Lanzhi is also very helpless: "Old Man Song has passed away, and Yi Zhi's eldest brother has long since retired, for so many years, almost all of them have been supported by himself, who can help him?"

Li Lanzhi didn't tell the old man that those owners who had already paid the money went to his company every day to make trouble, and the employees also made trouble to leave, who could stand it?

She didn't even say that her brother-in-law didn't have high blood pressure or heart disease, but "accidentally" swallowed too much sleeping pills.

Grandma didn't ask to go to her youngest daughter's house anymore, she spent more time sitting on the balcony in a daze, holding the insoles, and couldn't sew a stitch for half a day. Qiao Bowen often held the puppy to play with his grandmother, and the old man said lovingly: "The whole family is carefree, so you can play hard!"

The one who cared about her aunt earlier than her grandmother was Wei Chenglin's mother Zhao Yanfen. She was going back to Hong Kong City to do some private business, and as soon as she returned to Jixiang Road, she heard the discussion of her neighbors. Some sighed, some gloated, but the central idea of all was the same - I am afraid that they were going to witness the collapse of the building.

Zhao Yanfen hurriedly called her son and asked him if he knew about the Song family. Wei Chenglin was immersed in the game, and replied a few words absentmindedly, but his mother scolded him: "People are your mentors!

Wei Chenglin was scolded inexplicably, he didn't know what happened to Li Lanlan's family at all. He was playing a game with a group of fox friends and dogs, so he casually said, "Then you go and see it first, and tell me if you need money." ”

Wei Chenglin didn't care, it was that he thought about the problem too simply. And Zhao Yanfen stomped her feet in anger, thinking to herself, how did she raise a white-eyed wolf.

She inquired with Lao Qiao about the place where Song Yizhi was hospitalized, bought some fruit supplements and went. Song Yizhi was not in the hospital, and he heard from the nurse that his wife had gone out with him and would come back later. Zhao Yanfen was not in a hurry, so she waited for him in the ward, but when Song Minrou came, both of them were taken aback.

With the only remaining impression in her childhood, Song Minrou recognized her as Wei Chenglin's mother, and Zhao Yanfen could see at a glance that although this girl looked exactly the same as Min Jia, her eyes were much more powerful than Min Jia, and she must be Min Jia's sister who had lived abroad for a long time.

Min Rou said hello lukewarmly, and then asked straight to the point, "Did Wei Chenglin ask you to come?"

"No, Cheng Lin doesn't know yet. ”

"And how did you know my dad was sick?"

Look at her aggressive look, as if no one else should come to visit. Zhao Yanfen said honestly: "I listened to what others said. ”

"It can't be my aunt's family, right?"

“…… No, it's the neighbors. ”

Song Minrou threw her coat on the chair next to her and sneered: "Hmph, a group of little citizens who love to chew their tongues." ”

Zhao Yanfen was very uncomfortable when she heard it, she couldn't leave, she couldn't stay, she could only stand there crampedly, regretting that she shouldn't have come this time. Min Rou looked at her, and followed her son to live a good life for a few years, and Zhao Yanfen's clothes also had brands. But in Min Rou's view, it still exudes a rustic atmosphere.

"Aunt Zhao, please don't tell Wei Chenglin the news of my father's illness, and don't come to visit in the future. Our family was doing well and didn't need extra care. ”

She tilted her chin and raised her eyebrows, still a swaggering lady. Even if she falls into the mud, she is still the brightest swan. Zhao Yanfen was so stimulated by her that her face flushed, put down the things in her hand, and hurriedly said, "I just care, I don't mean anything else." If you don't like it, I won't come in the future, and I won't tell anyone. ”

Zhao Yanfen was afraid that Min Rou would let her carry her things away, so she quickly escaped from the ward. This girl is really terrible, who will dare to marry her in the future?

Zhao Yanfen didn't know that after she left, Min Rou sat on the bed weakly, covering her face in pain, and she was afraid of being seen by others, so she was very restrained even when she was sad.

In the evening, her parents came back, and judging from the expressions of the two, things should have been very unsmooth, and they didn't get any money. Min Rou ordered takeout for the two of them, but the takeaway was left on the table for a long time, and no one moved the chopsticks.

Who has the heart to eat at this critical juncture?

Song Yizhi stopped talking several times, but he never spoke. Min Rou also understands that her father wants her to get married early. But if she marries, will she definitely be able to solve the family's difficulties?

Li Lanlan is also tired, and there will be a performance the next day, so she will definitely not be able to do this mental state. Min Rou asked her mother to go back to rest, and she accompanied her father in the hospital. Li Lanlan thought about it carefully, and she hadn't been home for several days.

A month ago, the house was cold, and she didn't want to go back. She went downstairs in a daze, there were not many people in the hall anymore, and she faced the darkness, walking forward step by step, as if only the lonely sound of high heels accompanied her.

In fact, there was a gurgling sound, but she couldn't hear it.

As soon as she put on her seatbelt, her phone rang, and although she didn't want to speak, she picked it up when she looked at the caller ID.

"Mom, why haven't you slept yet?"

"After calling you, I'll go to sleep. ”

As soon as she heard her mother's voice, Li Lanlan didn't know why, her tears were like bursting the embankment, and she couldn't control it at all. She wanted to say a few soft words, but when the words came to her lips, they turned into complaints.

"Don't you like to discipline me? Didn't you say that I took the money for my brother's treatment and ran to Shanghai, and I was not afraid of retribution? Didn't you say that I lived too hard, my mouth was too poisonous, and I would suffer losses in the future?...... Now it's all working, are you, aren......'t you?"

There was silence on the other end of the phone, until Li Lanlan couldn't speak and cried bitterly, and the old voice said, "Have you eaten?"

Li Lanlan closed her eyes, and her tears flowed even more.

"Don't talk about that yet, go home and get something to eat. Aren't you ruthless? Show me that ruthlessness...... If you're too tired, don't forget, you still have an older sister, a younger brother, and me. ”

These people couldn't help anyone except use their mouths to comfort her. Li Lanlan was very annoyed by this, and didn't want to waste any more time, so she hung up the phone. You have to go home and do it yourself, and you can't expect anyone else to do such a simple thing.

There has been almost no fire at home recently, so I go home to take a shower and sleep, and I don't have the heart to cook. But Li Lanlan didn't expect that there was a thermos flask at the door of her house.

The old-fashioned style, the color has almost dropped, and I don't know who put it here. Li Lanlan opened the letter suspiciously, the top layer was golden millet porridge, and below was her favorite bean bun before she became famous.

What her mother had just said suddenly echoed in her mind - go home for dinner!

No one thinks of her like that except for her mother.

The rough-skinned and incompetent old lady took care of her stubbornness in the softest way. Even caring for her didn't embarrass her.

Li Lanlan took a bite of the bun and swallowed it with tears. It turns out that the care that my mother said is not just talking.
