67. Parental Approval

When Mao Dong and Liang Ju rushed home, it was already more than ten o'clock, Liang Ju ran upstairs, and saw that the door of his house was not closed, and he vaguely heard the sound of his mother crying inside.

When he opened the door and rushed into the house, he found his father lying on the floor with half of his face pale and his upper body leaning against the leg of the table.

"Dad!" Liang Ju was so anxious that he almost cried, "Dad, what's wrong with you!" โ€

As soon as she saw Liang Ju, her mother's cry became louder, "Juzi, you're back!" Seeing that there was no shadow of Mao Dong behind Liang Ju, her mother suddenly became more anxious, "What about him?" What about Mao Dong? โ€

"He's parking." Liang Ju didn't care about his mother anymore, but ran to his father's side and shouted to Liang Zhifu: "Dad, Dad!" โ€

Liang Zhifu closed his eyes with a painful face, and only slowly opened his eyes when he heard Liang Ju's voice, "Juju." โ€

"Dad, are you alright?"

"I'm fine"

His father was still pretending to be strong, and Liang Ju was even more anxious when he saw this. "How did my dad get this?" She asked her mother.

Mother He Mei's eyes were red when she cried, "We had a little awkward trouble at night, I, I scolded him a few words, who knew that your father suddenly didn't stand firm and fell"

"Mom, you" Liang Ju just wanted to blame his mother for a few words, when he heard the hurried footsteps of Mao Dong entering the house behind him.

"Is Uncle alright?" Mao Dong's voice was anxious, and his steps were hurried.

He Mei saw Mao Dong as if she had seen a savior, and she was happier than when she saw her daughter just now, "Mao Dong, you are here!" โ€

Mao Dong nodded, "Auntie, don't worry, my car is downstairs, let's send my uncle to the hospital now." โ€

"Good! Good! โ€

He Mei hurriedly wiped away her tears and stood up, flustered for a moment, and didn't know what to prepare.

"Get a coat for your uncle and get your ID card." Mao Dong admonished behind her.

"Good, good!" He Mei's brain is blank now, she listens to what Mao Dong says, I don't know why, what she trusts most now is not her daughter, but Mao Dong.

"What about the money, do you need to bring the money?" He Mei looked back at Mao Dong.

"No, I have."

Liang Ju has been taking care of her father, and she didn't dare to touch her father, for fear of making her father hurt even more.

Mao Dong stepped forward and briefly checked Liang Zhifu's leg and said, "It should have hurt the bones." โ€

"Yan zhรฒng?" Liang Ju asked anxiously.

"I don't know, I have to go to the hospital."

Mao Dong squatted on the ground and said to Liang Ju: "I'll carry my uncle downstairs, you can help you." โ€

Liang Ju's family lives on the sixth floor, which is an old building with very high stairs.

Mao Dong carried Liang Zhifu on his back and went down from the sixth floor step by step, and Liang Ju helped his mother to walk behind.

That was the first time, Liang Ju looked at this man's back and felt from the bottom of his heart that his back had such a huge sense of security.

โ€”โ€”โ€”

After Mao Dong was busy at the hospital, he pushed a wheelchair to send Liang Zhifu to take a film and go for an examination. He Mei was so frightened that she had no strength at all, so Liang Ju had to sit in the hospital corridor with her mother and wait for the diagnosis.

He Mei held her daughter's hand and sighed continuously. Fortunately, the doctor's preliminary diagnosis just now is not a big problem, and it may be that you need to recuperate for a period of time.

"Mom, don't worry, my dad is fine."

"Well, I was really frightened today, and I almost fainted when I saw your dad lying there in a white state."

Liang Ju looked at his mother, who had a hot temper in the past, and couldn't help sighing, "Let you bully my dad again." โ€

"I'm not a bully, it's that old guy who always wants to make me angry."

"Okay, it's all old, let's quarrel less in the future."

"Yes, my temper is also a lifetime, and it's hard to change it."

"Yo, that's up to you if you want to change it."

"You little rabbit is talking to your father."

"I'm protecting the weak."

Mao Dong pushed Liang Zhifu out of it, and Liang Ju quickly got up when he saw this, "How is it?" โ€

"Pelvic fracture requires 3.4 months of recuperation and rehabilitation."

"Yan zhรฒng?" This is what He Mei asked.

"The doctor said that it was okay and it was not strict, and there were no other soft tissue contusions."

"Then I'll be relieved." He Mei patted her chest and let out a long breath.

"Uncle has to be hospitalized for a few days, I'll go through the formalities, you guys wait here for a while."

"Why don't I go?" Liang Ju asked.

Mao Dong glanced at He Mei, and seeing the old man's face full of worry and exhaustion, he held Liang Ju's hand, "I'd better go, you are here to accompany Auntie." โ€

"Do you have enough money, not enough for me here."

Saying that, Liang Ju was about to open the wallet, and Mao Dong held her hand to open the bag, "I have it." โ€

Looking at the back of him leaving, He Xia sighed again, her eyes soft and guilty.

Liang Ju peeked at his mother and asked teasingly: "What, do you regret treating others at the beginning?" โ€

"What a good boy, thanks to him, otherwise we wouldn't have been able to move your dad down from the sixth floor tonight."

"It's not too late, just be nice to people now."

Liang Ju and He Mei sat back on the long chair of the hospital, He Mei patted Liang Ju's hand, "Since you moved out, he has been buying things to come to the house from time to time, you know?" โ€

Liang Ju was completely stunned, and looked at his mother blankly, "Go to our house?" โ€

He Mei bowed, "The first time I came, I was beaten by your father and hit me on the arm with a stick." โ€

"My dad hit him!" Liang Ju's face was full of surprise. She remembered that the two had just lived together, and Mao Dong once went home and obviously couldn't lift his arm, when Liang Ju asked what was going on, Mao Dong just said that he had hit something.

"Later, he always bought all kinds of nutritional products, sometimes I didn't want to see him, and your father was also cold to him, but Mao Dong's child always politely told us to pay attention to our bodies, and before leaving, he secretly stuffed the money under the sofa cushion. I scolded him and asked him for a house as a dowry, and he was not annoyed, he kept talking for you, orange, this time my mother really saw it wrong, this child is worth marrying. โ€

Liang Ju listened to her mother's words silently, she didn't say anything, and she was already shocked in her heart and couldn't say anything.

Mao Dong went through the hospitalization procedures for Liang Zhifu, Liang Zhifu was pushed to the ward, He Mei wanted to keep vigil, but Liang Ju and Mao Dong both refused.

"Orange, you can take a taxi to send Auntie back."

"What about you?"

"I'm here tonight."

Liang Ju couldn't bear it in his heart, "You still have to go to work tomorrow, so I'm here." โ€

"It's okay, this is the men's ward, my uncle may still get up at night, it's inconvenient for a girl to be here." Mao Dong casually sorted out the films and some billing bills and put them in the bedside drawer of the ward.

Seeing the haggard appearance of the mother and daughter, Mao Dong still pushed them out of the ward, "Let's go, there is an empty bed in the room, and I will deal with it there for a night at night." โ€

"Then I'll buy you something to eat."

"No, I'm a big man who can't take care of himself, let's go."

Liang Ju couldn't help but reach out and hug Mao Dong and leaned his head on his chest, "Thank you, thank you." โ€

"Silly girl, Auntie is still there."

He Mei also secretly pursed her lips and smiled when she saw her daughter's coquettish appearance.

"I'm leaving, be careful at night, I'll come over early tomorrow morning."

"Well, you can stay at home tonight, I'm not at ease when you go back to the suburbs by yourself."

"Good. The hospital is cold at night, so don't freeze. โ€

"Alright, little verbose, let's go."

Liang Ju helped her mother out of the ward reluctantly, and before leaving, she still glanced at Mao Dong and saw him standing at the door and looking at herself with a smile.

The next day, Liang Ju's company called her to go back to the company to deal with temporary tasks, Liang Ju wanted to ask for leave, but her mother He Mei still persuaded her to go over to see, because it had only been less than a year since she became a regular, so the worksheet was a big question about whether she would raise her salary in the future, Liang Ju had to call Mao Dong and went back to the company.

When He Mei was carrying the soup to the hospital, she happened to meet the doctor who was on patrol and had just come out of the ward.

He Mei saw that the doctor hurriedly asked about Liang Zhifu's condition, and the doctor said a few words.

The nurses who inspected the ward with the doctor were all young people, and when they saw He Mei, one of them couldn't help but praise: "Auntie, you are so good, you are so blessed to have such a good son-in-law." โ€

A doctor next to him also said: "Yes, I heard that I spent the whole night taking care of the old man last night, and it is really rare to find such a son-in-law now." โ€

Speaking of Mao Dong, He Xia also pursed her lips and smiled lightly.

Entering the ward, Mao Dong was wiping his face with He Zhifu, and his movements were skillful, without any signs of impatience.

"Auntie, are you here so early?"

"yes, I'm worried about staying at home, so it's better to come early." He Mei put the soup on the small cabinet at the head of the hospital bed, "Mao Dong, have you eaten?" โ€

"Not yet, I'll have to go back to the company in a while, and I'll eat when I go back."

"You drink some soup first, I'm tired all night."

"It's okay Auntie, I'm fine."

After wiping his face, Mao Dong wiped He Zhifu's hands again, and after everything was cleaned up, he relayed a few words to He Xia about the doctor's explanation, and left the hospital in a hurry.

When Liang Ju came in the afternoon, He Mei told Liang Ju what the nurses and doctors had said in the morning.

Liang Ju smiled while peeling apples, "Do you think it's good when others say it's good?" I said it at the beginning, and I don't have a bad eye. โ€

He Mei snorted when she heard her daughter say this, "Look at what you looked for before." โ€

Liang Zhifu was much better, lying on the bed listening to the conversation between their mother and daughter, and suddenly spoke: "You two, when are you going to get married?" โ€

Father's opening stunned Liang Ju and his mother.

He Mei was stunned for a few seconds, and suddenly pushed Liang Ju, who was still in a daze next to her, with a smile, "Quick, your dad has agreed, hurry up, say, when will you do something?" โ€

Liang Ju bit his lip and smiled, and then lowered his head as if he was shy and continued to peel apples, "Not necessarily." โ€

"Tsk, what are you trying to make a fuss about?" The mother was immediately unhappy.

Liang Ju said: "Haven't you always wanted people to buy you a house, how can you get married if you don't buy this house?" โ€

"Isn't that what I was angry about?" He Mei turned her head to look at her old man, and said to Liang Ju: "It's not easy to find such a capable son-in-law now, Liang Ju, let me tell you, if you can't grasp it this time, beware that I really cut off the mother-daughter relationship with you!" โ€

Liang Ju disagreed, "Yo, Mom, are you looking at him like this now?" โ€

Cut the apples in half and give them to my mother, and feed them to my father one by one.

He Mei bit the apple, patted her leg and said, "That's, such a good son-in-law, where can I find it?" โ€

Considering that everyone had to go to work the next day, Liang Ju paid for his father to hire a nurse, so that there was no need to be accompanied by someone at night.

When he got home, Liang Ju told Mao Dong every word of his mother's words, Mao Dong was dealing with the company's affairs, and he immediately objected without raising his head.

"No, the house has to be bought."

"Why? My mom said she wouldn't buy it. โ€

Liang Ju leaned against the wall in front of his computer, and Mao Dong said: "I bought a house to make your parents feel that I am indeed capable of taking care of you, not because I listened to my aunt's words to buy a house." โ€

Liang Ju couldn't help laughing, "Hey, everyone knows your ability, why do you spend that money to prove it?" โ€

Mao Dong raised his eyes and looked at her, and said with a smile: "Hey, now that my daughter grows up, I really can't keep it, and my daughter can't marry in such a hurry as her mother when she grows up." โ€

Liang Ju reacted for a while, "Who are you going to marry you!" โ€

Seeing her turn around and leave, Mao Dong called her behind her.

"What!" Liang Ju deliberately pretended to be angry.

Mao Dong closed the computer and stretched, "Let's go see the house one day." โ€

Liang Ju blinked, "What house are you looking at?" โ€

Mao Dong took out a card from the drawer under the computer desk and placed it on the table.

Liang Ju's eyes lit up, and he stretched out his arm and ran directly to hug Mao Dong, "Husband, you are so handsome!" โ€

She sat on Mao Dong's lap, and Mao Dong leaned on Liang Ju tiredly. "You choose a place, and we'll go and see it together."

"Okay, I'll choose tomorrow."

***

Liang Ju's colleague Fang Weiqi had mentioned to her that he wanted to sell the house before, and Liang Ju thought that it would be better to go and see Fang Weiqi first if he bought a house anyway.

Fang Weiqi's house belongs to the school district, which he bought before he got married, and the two divorced after the house was renovated and lived in a few days.

"We usually live at my mother's, and the house is mostly empty."

Fang Weiqi showed Liang Ju the photos of the house, and Liang Ju looked at it carefully for a while and thought it was good. Facing north and south, the floor is on 7 floors, and the overall area is nearly 100 square meters.

"It's basically no problem for a family of three to live." Fang Weiqi said.

Liang Ju asked, "How much do you want to sell this house?" โ€

"Anyway, it's also put, I don't want to go over to live, you just look at the price."

"That's not good, and I can't let you lose."

"Otherwise, I'll wait until your family finishes reading it."

Liang Ju thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay." โ€

Liang Ju immediately called Mao Dong, Mao Dong's subsidiary business was quite stable, not as many things as before, Mao Dong said that he would come over the next weekend afternoon to have a look.

It just so happened that Liang Ju was on duty this Saturday, she was on duty in the company in the morning, and in the afternoon she deliberately picked a group with others, and took the car to the house before she had time to eat lunch.

The appointment was to see the house at two o'clock in the afternoon, Fang Weiqi drove from other places first, it was already half past one when Liang Ju arrived, she talked to Fang Weiqi for a while, and saw it was more than two o'clock, but she never saw Mao Dong's figure.

Liang Ju was a little sorry, and Fang Weiqi said, "I'll call and ask." โ€

Fang Weiqi waved his hand, "No hurry." โ€

Mao Dong's phone didn't go through the first time, and it rang several times the second time before it was finally connected.

"Orange, I have something to do here temporarily, and I may not be able to get over it today." His voice was noisy and he spoke very quickly.

Liang Ju chuckled in his heart, and asked in a hurry: "Why, aren't they all agreed?" โ€

"I'll explain to you when I go back, and help me say I'm sorry to your colleague." After finishing speaking, Mao Dong hurriedly hung up the phone.

"Hello? Feed? Liang Ju heard that the phone was hung up, and there was a fire in his heart.

"He can't come?" Fang Weiqi's voice sounded behind him.

Liang Ju turned around and forced a smile, "Yes, I'm really embarrassed, Team Leader Fang, I caused you to run for nothing." โ€

"It's fine."

"Why don't I invite you to dinner?"

"You haven't eaten yet?"

"No, I can't even take care of it in time."

Fang Weiqi nodded, "Let's go, I'll introduce you to a delicious place." โ€

Less than ten minutes after Fang Weiqi's car drove away, Liang Ju received a text message.

It was this text message that made Liang Ju intoxicated and completely disappointed in Mao Dong.

The text message is from the bank, and the content is - your โ–กโ–ก account with the tail number XXXX spent RMB 500,000 at 14:43 on September 18, and the current balance was 58,794.87 yuan. [xx bank]

Mao Dong spent the money for the down payment on the house.

Liang Ju's first reaction was that he wouldn't spend so much money at once for no reason.

***

When Mao Dong arrived at Beixing, Beixing had already closed the door, and after knocking for a long time, a waiter opened the door for him.

When he entered the lobby, he saw Sha Pei sitting on a chair in the center of the hall with his head bent over, his face full of sorrow, and Zhong Ling next to him was sitting next to him as if persuading him. Ah Yuan stood aside with a cold face, and the waiters in the bar gathered in the bar lobby, sitting or standing.

Mao Dong glanced at it, almost everything that could be smashed was completely smashed, all the chairs and tables were overturned and fell to the ground, the glass fragments of wine bottles and glasses were shattered, and the whole bar was in a wolf.

Footsteps were heard, and everyone looked at the door.

Seeing Mao Dong, Sha Pei jumped up directly from the chair and ran straight over, "Brother, you beat me to death!" It's all my fault! โ€

He knelt on the ground directly holding Mao Dong's waist, and Mao Dong lowered his eyes and was silent.

"I didn't expect those people to find here, brother, I ruined your hard work, I'm sorry for you!"
