"Well, wait, boy, there's something to do...... I'm embarrassed if I don't tell you. Aunt Wang hesitated, she glanced at Grandpa Mao, then closed her eyes and gritted her teeth, "You take this money, in fact, this house, there was a woman who had paid you rent for three years." ”

I looked confused, "Who paid for it?"

"It's a very beautiful woman, I'm here, I'm also continuing to collect your rent as she said, but conscience, I can't get by!" The landlord took out another envelope bag from her bag with some embarrassment.

A pack of drums.

Put it in my hand, plus what I paid today, this is a year and three months of rent.

Now, it's in my hands.

But which woman is it?

Could it be Jiang Qing?

Before I met Jiang Qing, I didn't have any intersection with women at all, although I had a relationship with a woman in college, but that was a long time ago, and it was impossible for the other party to still have any connection with me.

However, a year ago, Jiang Qing and I had no intersection.

So, I was even more confused.

"Thank you. ”

I pinched the envelope and put it in my bag and left the apartment, stopping a taxi on the side of the road, "Master, go to the passenger transportation center." ”

I am in Longhu District, City A, which is the most prosperous business district in City A, and my parents are in the Puming District of City A, which takes about an hour and a half by bus.

When I came to my home in Puming District, I put my suitcase and went out the door, and this time I got on the bus and went to the People's Hospital.

My sister needs to be hospitalized every day, and the previous 300,000 yuan was only the cost of surgery and the medical expenses of the first phase of treatment.

I haven't seen her in months.

Inside the hospital room.

"Mom. I saw my mother gently caressing my sister's cheek, and in order not to frighten them, I called softly, "Yaya." ”

My sister, called Jiang Zimo, nicknamed Yaya, she is only eighteen years old, the same age as a flower, but she has been lying in bed.

Sick, she only has a layer of skin and bones left, and before, she couldn't even leave.

Although, today she looks a lot better than before.

"Brother, why are you here!" Jiang Zimo saw me appear, her eyes shining with bright light, in stark contrast to her pale complexion.

I smiled.

Mom didn't speak, just pursed her lips and smiled, she has always been like this, not much to say, but silently did a lot for us.

She is a real Jiangnan woman, gentle and virtuous.

In my memory, I never saw her blush with anyone.

"Yaya, how do you feel, do you listen to your mother obediently. "At this moment, I turned into a nagging uncle.

Mom turned sideways so that I could get closer to my sister.

I pinched her face, "Well, some flesh." ”

"Mom, you see, my brother always treats me as a child, I'm a big girl, and I can fall in love at this age. Jiang Zimo pouted, coquettishly, and muttered dissatisfiedly.

I pretended to be angry, "Yaya, you can't go behind my brother's back to find a boyfriend, my brother will be sad." ”

Only in front of my family can I be my true self again.

Simple, yet effortless.

"Brother, you are so domineering!" Jiang Zimo muttered dissatisfiedly, but subconsciously yawned.

I touched her hair in distress and glanced at my mother, who shook her head at me with a deep worry in her eyes.

"Yaya, you sleep, brother goes out to smoke a cigarette. As I spoke, I glanced at my mother.

"Uh-huh. ”

In my ears is my sister's well-behaved voice.

Smoking is not allowed in the corridors of the hospital, so I went out of my way to the smoking area at the entrance of the staircase.

Usually I don't have a craving for smoking, but when I'm upset, I can't help but want to smoke, one after another.

Endless.

"How about coming back this time, how many days will you stay?" Behind me was my mother's gentle voice, and I snuffed out my cigarette butt and turned around.

Instead of answering the rhetorical question, "Where's Dad?"

The air seemed to stand still.

Seeing his mother looking out of the window faintly, he sighed slightly, "What do you mention him for?"

Listening to this tone, I know, "He's going to play cards again?"

I just came relaxed and happy, but now I am suddenly replaced by depression, and I want to smoke again.

But the mother's health is not good.

I held back.

The mother did not continue the topic, "Son, your sister's health has improved a lot after the operation, and Mom now only hopes that you can find a girlfriend and get married as soon as possible." ”

I didn't mention it to my mother about the fact that I had already obtained the certificate.

The 300,000 yuan, I only said that I bought the lottery ticket, as for whether she believed it or not, I don't know.

At the moment, I just feel that the fat man is very dry, and I don't want to continue this topic at all, "Mom, does Dad still have a sister?"

"How do you know they've found you?" asked my mother, surprised when she heard me.

I looked at my mother and nodded.

The mother was silent, and after a long moment she sighed heavily, her brows full of sorrow.

"Son, what do you think?"

I think she must have had a bad feeling in her heart.

Until now, none of them have accepted my mother.

Although Wen Qin found me, she also hinted to me that the Jiang family would only recognize me, regardless of my parents.

It's just that I really didn't expect that my sister was already like this, and my father still had the heart to play cards.

His chest was tight, and there was a fire running around.

"Wen Qin, that is, my aunt's daughter, she came to me and asked me to be the heir of their Jiang family. ”

The mother's back was a little bent all of a sudden, "Son, Mom just wants you to be ordinary and find a kind girl to marry." ”

The implication is that they don't want me to enter the Jiang clan.

"Mom, you don't like me to have anything to do with them?" I looked at my mother, trying to see a different emotion on her face.

But no.

She's always like this, whether it's good or bad, for her, it's all plain.

The only time I showed a panicked expression was when my sister checked out that her body was abnormal.

She fainted with shock.

Otherwise, I would always think that my mother was an indestructible woman, like an impregnable wall that would never fall.

At that time, I realized that my mother was just a weak woman who needed me to take care of her all her life.

And, of course, my sister.

"Mom just thinks the Jiang family is too complicated, and I don't want you to be too tired. "My mother just wants us to be well.

My eyes were a little overflowing, as if there was a spring about to gush out, but as a man, I didn't allow myself to cry.

That's the act of the weak.

"You take good care of your sister, don't worry about anything else, you take this money, I'll give it to you later, I also brought you some food and put it in the suitcase, you can see it when you go home." I took out the envelope bag that the landlord had given me from my school bag and stuffed it directly into my mother's hand, and when I raised my eyes, there was only peace in my eyes.

No matter who helped me, I can pay it back when I find someone in the future.

The mother held the envelope bag thoughtfully, her face moved.

I patted my mother on the shoulder and continued, "I'm leaving soon, I have something to do later, you pay attention to your body." ”

Saying goodbye to my mother, I went to my sister's attending doctor's office, "Hello doctor, I would like to inquire about the condition of Jiang Zimo in the next 24 beds." ”

……

At half past three in the afternoon, I appeared downstairs in Jiang Qing's company again, hesitating.

Along the way, I was thinking about what the doctor said, "Jiang Zimo's body function is slowly recovering after surgery, but whether her leg can recover, I can't guarantee it at present." ”

I have an unformed idea, however, I need money.

After much hesitation, I took out my phone and dialed the first phone in my life to abandon my self-esteem.

"Hey......" a cold voice came from the other end of the phone.

"I'm downstairs in your company, can you come out for a while?" I tried to keep it natural, and my lips were dry.

The other end of the line was silent, and only the sound of breathing could be heard.

Faintly.

After a while, "Heh, yesterday's incident, you lost your memory?"

Before I could speak, the phone was ruthlessly hung up.

I stuffed my phone back into my trouser pocket with a blank face and left the downstairs of Jiang Qing's company without hesitation.

Why is it that every time I try hard to abandon my former self, the reality is always so cruel, playing with me like this, making me play a faceless man in front of Jiang Qing again and again.

In her eyes, it is estimated that I have a split personality, and I will be coaxed by cowhide for a while, and I will lick my face like a dog and approach her.

I'm disgusting like this.
