Before he arrived at the gate of the hospital, Xia Mohan noticed that the guards of this psychiatric hospital had become very strict, not only were there uniformed security guards standing outside the hospital gate, but inside the hospital, there were also many security personnel in suits patrolling.

As soon as Xia Mohan and Huang Guilan approached, a security guard stopped them and said solemnly: "Our hospital is closed today, and no one can enter or leave." ”

Xia Mohan was puzzled: "Why?" ”

The security guard said expressionlessly: "I don't know about the emergency notice above." ”

Xia Mohan immediately said: "But my husband is inside, and I came to charge the hospital card." ”

The security guard continued to say indifferently: "That's not good, the hospital has entered a completely closed state, and you can't do business if you go in." ”

Xia Mohan is really speechless, a psychiatric hospital would even do such a thing, is it that she has her own unlucky physique now, and she will hit a wall wherever she goes!

Xia Mohan frowned and was about to speak again, when the security captain came over and said sharply to Xia Mohan: "This young lady, don't embarrass us here, I won't tell you, there are big people in the hospital, and now no one can enter, you better go back!" ”

His meaning is obvious, this big man has a noble status and does not allow outsiders to contact and approach.

Xia Mohan has no right to enter, and he can't ask for accommodation.

"Xiaomo, didn't you notice? This is God's will, God won't let you care about that fool, what do you care about him? Let's go. Huang Guilan, who was on the side, persuaded Xia Mohan.

Is it really providential? Xia Mohan looked deeply at the psychiatric hospital in front of him, and finally turned around helplessly and said, "Let's go!" ”

The two left the psychiatric hospital, took another taxi, and went straight to the Nishihara train station.

"Xiaomo, why don't we go to Jiangzhou, your grandfather will be 70th birthday in two days, so we will go there to stay temporarily." Sitting in the car, Huang Guilan thought about it repeatedly, and finally felt that it was safest to go back to her parents' home.

"Whatever." Xia Mohan closed his eyes and gently spit out two words, for the current Xia Mohan, it is the same wherever he goes, as long as he leaves this nightmarish Xiyuan City, it will be fine.

Jiangzhou is also a prefecture-level city in Jiangdong Province. The economic strength is no worse than that of Nishihara.

Huang Guilan's family is an old family in Jiangzhou, over the years, the Huang family has experienced ups and downs, several ups and downs, when Huang Guilan got married, it was the time when the Huang family was most declining, so Huang Guilan married to the Xiyuan Xia family, and she suddenly had a sense of glory that flew on the branches and became a phoenix.

Huang Guilan enjoyed the feeling of being a rich man's wife, and she also became arrogant, and she disdained to have dealings with her poor mother's family anymore, so she went back to her parents' house very rarely, and the few times she went back was also to show off herself in front of her mother's family.

How do you know that feng shui takes turns, Huang Guilan's fate is getting worse and worse, her husband died early, she became a widow, her daughter suddenly got married, but she married a fool, and the old man of the Xia family who supported them died in the west again, and the Xia family gradually fell. Huang Guilan changed from a pampered rich wife to a housewife with a stupid son-in-law.

And her maiden family, the Huang family, has had excellent luck in recent years, developed rapidly, and finally became prosperous. Now they have become a well-known family in Jiangzhou City.

Thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, Huang Guilan looked down on her mother's family back then, and then it was her turn to live a bleak life, so she naturally had no face to see her mother's family. Her relationship with her mother's family is becoming more and more estranged.

Now, Huang Guilan was forced into a desperate situation, so she licked her face and prepared to go back to her parents' house.

At noon, the two came to the Huang family's house in Jiangzhou City.

The Huang family house is a very old house, although the house is old, but it is very large, and the whole house is simple but also magnificent and solemn. Obviously, the people who can live here have some background.

Standing at the door of the house, Huang Guilan straightened her clothes before knocking on the door of the house.

After a while, the door opened, and the doorman of the Huang family walked out, he knew Huang Guilan, so he didn't say anything, and let Huang Guilan and Xia Mohan go.

Huang Guilan and Xia Mohan, carrying their luggage, walked through the courtyard and came to the door of the main house.

"Yo, isn't this Guilan? Rare guests! A fashionably dressed middle-aged woman walked out of the main house and said to Huang Guilan.

When Huang Guilan saw this person, she immediately smiled and said, "Sister-in-law is good." ”

The fashionable woman is Huang Guilan's sister-in-law, Luo Ping.

In the past, Huang Guilan looked down on Luo Ping, but now it is different from the past, now that the Huang family is developed, his brother has the ability, and he has come to join his mother's family, Huang Guilan's attitude towards Luo Ping has naturally changed 180 degrees.

It's just that Luo Ping didn't accept Huang Guilan's affection, she said coldly to Huang Guilan: "Don't call me so affectionate, when did you treat me as a sister-in-law?" As she spoke, she glanced at the luggage in Huang Guilan's hand again, and said mockingly: "Why are you bringing so much luggage?" Do you think my Huang family is a shelter? ”

Luo Ping's words were extremely ugly, and she didn't give Huang Guilan any affection, Huang Guilan knew that it was useless to be good and angry, so she simply cheekily said: "Can't I come to live in my mother's house?" ”

Luo Ping said indifferently: "No, after you got married, when did you take this place as your home, and now that you are down, you want to go home?" Dream on! ”

Huang Guilan is not a patient person, she was embarrassed by Luo Ping's sarcasm several times, and her anger also came up, she directly said angrily: "I'm going to enter, I want to see my dad, can you manage it?" With that, Huang Guilan rushed to the main house with her luggage.

Luo Ping immediately stopped Huang Guilan and said solemnly: "You are not allowed to go in, the old man is meeting the distinguished guests inside, you can't disturb." ”

Just when the two were entangled, a stern voice sounded: "What are you arguing about?" ”

As soon as the voice fell, a group of people came out of the main room, the leader of which was an old man with white hair, he was Huang Guilan's father, Huang Ping'an.

As soon as Huang Ping'an saw Xia Mohan and Huang Guilan, his face instantly showed displeasure, he said coldly, and asked the two, "Why are you here?" His tone was detached and full of rejection, as if he had no feelings for this daughter and granddaughter.

Huang Guilan looked at Huang Ping'an and said timidly: "Dad, aren't you about to celebrate your seventieth birthday, I'll come over to see you and celebrate your birthday by the way." ”

Huang Ping'an said politely: "I can't afford your blessing!" In a word, with anger, it is obvious that Huang Ping'an has a great opinion of Huang Guilan's daughter.

"This Guilan, her eyes are above the top, she never wants to go home when she is rich, and now she wants to come back when she is down, who is rare?"

"yes, she's just a snob, and she's disgusting to look at."

"And her daughter, married to a fool, it's definitely not a good thing, these two people are bad luck at first glance."

"Isn't it? You see, as soon as Guilan left, our family began to prosper, and as soon as she went to the Xia family, the Xia family began to decline, this is a broom star. ”

The Huang family who came around, every word you said to me, all vented their dissatisfaction with Huang Guilan.

Huang Guilan was scolded, she lost her face in Xia's house yesterday, and was attacked by a group of people when she ran to her mother's house today, she felt bitter, but she knew that this was all her own doing, and it was understandable for her mother's family to blame her.

Xia Mohan was also very uncomfortable listening to these voices, she was a little suffocated, and she wanted to escape from this space, but at this moment, someone suddenly walked out of the main house, stared at Xia Mohan, and asked, "This girl looks really good, may I ask what is your name?" ”

The person who spoke was a distinguished guest invited by the Huang family today, named Zhang Jingming.

Zhang Jingming is the general manager of the Jiangzhou branch of Jiangdong Bank, and he is also a figure in Jiangzhou, many CEOs of large companies have to go to the pole to curry favor with him, and the Huang family is no exception. If the Huang family wants to get a high loan, they can only ask Zhang Jingming for help.

Huang Ping'an spent a lot of effort to invite Zhang Jingming to his home, but he said that he had exhausted various methods, and the amount of the loan that could be approved in the end was still not much.

Huang Ping'an was worried about how to impress Zhang Jingming, but he didn't expect that Zhang Jingming himself showed his flaws.

Huang Ping'an is an experienced old fox, he can see Zhang Jingming's thoughts at a glance, so he hurriedly answered: "This is my granddaughter Xia Mohan, who came to see me from Xiyuan." ”

Zhang Jingming nodded and said appreciatively: "Yes, really good, little girl, you just came to Jiangzhou, in this way, Uncle Zuodong, please have a meal, okay?" ”

Xia Mohan didn't think about it, and flatly refused: "I'm sorry, I've eaten it." "Xia Mohan is not a person who judges people by their appearance, Zhang Jingming, a middle-aged uncle, bald, beer belly, it's nothing, but he has been looking at himself with squinting eyes, which makes Xia Mohan very disgusted, it is impossible for her to accompany this kind of person to eat.

Huang Ping'an saw Xia Mohan's refusal, and immediately persuaded him: "Mohan, Mr. Zhang is a distinguished guest of our family, be good, listen to my grandfather, and go out for a meal with Mr. Zhang." For Huang Ping'an, the current Xia Mohan is a treasure, a treasure that can please Zhang Jingming.

"I don't want to eat it." Xia Mohan rarely comes to her grandfather's house, and she is not close to her relatives here at all, she came here completely because of Huang Guilan's meaning, how could she go to dinner with a greasy uncle because of her grandfather's words.

At this time, Huang Ping'an was not happy, and he said angrily to Xia Mohan: "You..."

Before Huang Ping'an finished speaking, Zhang Jingming suddenly interrupted him and said: "Don't be like this, it's all a family, don't hurt the harmony, it's not easy for the little girl to come here on purpose, treat others well." ”

While speaking, Zhang Jingming also gently patted Huang Ping'an's shoulder, and after speaking, he left directly.

Zhang Jingming left such a sentence, the people of the Huang family will naturally no longer snub Huang Guilan's mother and daughter, and they really entertained the two of them with their hearts according to what Zhang Jingming said.

Huang Guilan saw that her family had changed their attitude, and she finally felt better, although it was completely for Zhang Jingming's face, but Huang Guilan didn't care, for her, as long as she could stay, it was better than anything.

Xia Mohan didn't feel any sincerity here, but at least everyone was enthusiastic on the surface, and Xia Mohan was not good at throwing face.

In the evening, the Huang family set up several tables of banquets to entertain Huang Guilan and Xia Mohan.

At the wine table, the Huang family was full of smiles, and they talked happily about the wine, and the atmosphere was very good. Xia Mohan couldn't resist the enthusiasm of the Huang family, and drank a few glasses of beer, but her alcohol was too small, and just a few glasses of beer made her red face and dizzy.

After the meal, Xia Mohan didn't stay long, and immediately greeted everyone and said, "My head hurts a little, go back to sleep first." ”

Luo Ping hurriedly got up and said, "I'll send you!" ”

Then, Luo Ping personally helped Xia Mohan to a side room in the old house.

This partial house is good in the Huang family's house, the living room, bedroom, and bathroom should be complete, and the decoration is also quite stylish.

After sending Xia Mohan into the house, Luo Ping said, "Good night, have a good rest." With that, she helped close the door.

Moreover, Luo Ping secretly locked the door outside.

Xia Mohan pinched her forehead and walked to the bedroom of the side room, she took off her coat on the bed, and then took out her change of clothes from the suitcase, and then she went to the bathroom to take a shower.

However, as soon as I walked to the door, the bathroom door suddenly opened.

A man in his pants, still a little wet, walked out of it.

This person is Zhang Jingming.
