Chapter 12: A Dress of a Thousand Dollars
Life goes by like this, although Xia Yang and Wang Xue will still have conflicts over homework, but under Xia Yang's supervision, Wang Xue's homework speed is much faster than before.
However, Xia Yang still found that Wang Xue's knowledge was not firmly grasped, especially the new words, which were very vain. She wanted to test her daughter's vocabulary every day to deepen her impression, but every time Wang Xue finished her homework, it was relatively late, and Xia Yang couldn't bear to force Wang Xue to study anymore.
It's November in the blink of an eye.
Wang Jianguo, who was reading the information that night, answered the phone.
"Daughter-in-law, Xiaoyu is coming back tomorrow."
After Wang Jianguo answered the phone, he ran over and said to Xia Yang.
"Dad, is my eldest sister coming back? Great, do you think my eldest sister still knows me? Will she bring me a gift? ”
Wang Xue is very excited, Wang Yu is her eldest sister, she is just this sister, she likes this sister very much.
"yes, she'll definitely know Xiaoxue."
Wang Jianguo touched his daughter's head, and all that flashed in his eyes was love.
Xia Yang knew why Wang Jianguo had such a gaze, Wang Xue was small, and she didn't understand it, but she was an adult, she knew that Wang Yu didn't like Wang Xue, and even hated it.
So every time Wang Yu saw Wang Xue, he ignored it.
Every time, Wang Xue called her sister affectionately, brought her delicious food to her sister, and talked to her sister.
Wang Yu just snorted.
Children also have a heart, and sometimes Wang Xue will feel hurt.
But every time at this time, Xia Yang would hug Wang Xue and explain her, saying that her sister was very big, and she couldn't play with the child, not because her sister didn't like her.
She can only persuade, she can only say this, otherwise what can she do?
"How long will my sister come back, does she want to live in our house?"
Wang Xue continued to ask.
"My sister is sick, she came back this time to have an operation, Xiaoxue is good, don't make trouble with my sister."
Wang Jianguo faced his daughter's excitement, and he also felt a little guilty in his heart, if the eldest girl could be the same as the little girl, how good it would be.
"Oh, what's wrong with my sister? She's going to have surgery, it must be painful, right? I'll go see her then. ”
Wang Xue's little face was worried.
Xia Yang also looked at Wang Jianguo, with an inquiring look in his eyes.
"It's okay, it's just that I have a cyst, it's okay to have surgery, Xiaoxue, don't worry."
Wang Jianguo smiled.
"Oh."
Wang Xue didn't know what a cyst was, but her father said it was fine, so it should be fine.
When Wang Xue fell asleep, Xia Yang freshened up and went back to the house.
"What did Xiaoyu say?"
Xia Yang asked Wang Jianguo while wiping his hair.
She said that the conditions at the school were not good, and that she could be reimbursed for the surgery there, but there was no one to take care of her. Her mother couldn't take a leave of absence either. She came back for surgery, wasn't her mother the head nurse? You can help her find a doctor and arrange hospitalization. It's also convenient for us to take care of it here. ”
Wang Jianguo told Wang Yu about what he said.
"How much does it cost to have surgery? Who will take this money? ”
Xia Yang continued to ask.
"I asked, and she said it was about sixteen or seventeen. Daughter-in-law, Xiaoyu said that her mother had no money over there, so we could only take the money. ”
Wang Jianguo's voice was a little low, he was not so arrogant.
Xia Yang nodded and didn't say anything more.
"Daughter-in-law, are you angry?"
Wang Jianguo hurriedly sat down and helped Xia Yang pinch his shoulders with flattery.
"No, you are Xiaoyu's father, the child has surgery, and it is natural for you to be a father to take money. I have no objection. ”
Xia Yang is not angry, he is really not angry. It's just that she can't be happy.
"I know that her mother has money in her hands, and I also know that her mother is more relaxed than us, but daughter-in-law, I don't want to mess with her mother because of this, after all, the child is sick, and it is important to have surgery to treat the disease."
Wang Jianguo's voice was somewhat low, when he divorced his ex-wife, he was the most difficult time, because he was framed, he didn't even have a job.
But his ex-wife took away all the family's savings and left him a passbook with only three cents.
His ex-wife bought a house with money, he was alone with his daughter, how difficult those two years were, he was a man, he couldn't even mention.
What Xia Yang has done over the years has really moved him, he has never let Xia Yang enjoy a day's blessings, he is really ashamed of Xia Yang.
"I know."
Xia Yang nodded, then she got up and took out the passbook at home and handed it to Wang Jianguo.
Wang Jianguo looked at it, and there were only thirteen thousand yuan on the passbook, which was all the savings of him and Xia Yang.
There are still four thousand left.
"Today on the 7th, it is impossible to pay the hospitalization fee at once, pay 10,000 yuan first, I opened my salary on the 15th, I calculated that there are about 4,000, plus this 4,000, just enough for the operation fee. There are still more than 300 cash in the family, and you will only start your salary at the end of the month. In other words, from today to the end of the month, our family can only spend more than 300 yuan. ”
Xia Yang's voice was not sad or happy, as if there was no emotion, but it was just telling a fact.
"I still have eight hundred in my hand."
Wang Jianguo's heart seemed to have been stung by something, and it was a little sore.
"You keep it, you still have to work hard, smoke, eat, and you can't do it if you don't have money in your hand."
Xia Yang looked at Wang Jianguo's eight hundred yuan, she didn't take it, how could a man go out if he had no money in his hand.
"Daughter-in-law, I'm sorry."
Wang Jianguo hugged Xia Yang from behind, his eyes were a little red.
"It will pass."
Xia Yang gently patted Wang Jianguo's hand and comforted him.
She never values money, otherwise she can't marry Wang Jianguo, as long as this man understands herself and knows how to be good to herself.
As for the rest, she didn't want to worry about it, and she didn't want to worry about it, otherwise she would be too tired.
At noon the next day, Xia Yang and Wang Jianguo drove to the station to pick up Wang Yu.
Wang Yu is very tall, more than 1.7 meters, she wears a long skirt, the color is very bright, very much like a model, and she looks very beaten.
When she got in the car, Wang Yu opened the door and sat in front, but Xia Yang didn't fight with her.
"My big girl's dress is really good."
Wang Jianguo praised him, this is his daughter, his daughter, of course he has feelings.
"It's good-looking, I bought it for nine hundred and ninety-eight, and it cost more than 1,600 at the beginning, I looked at it a few times and was reluctant to buy it, and then the store did an event with a discount, so I bought it."
Wang Yu said her skirt happily, with a smug expression.
Wang Jianguo was silent for a while, and Xia Yang was also silent.
Nine hundred and ninety-eight, that's almost a thousand.
Wang Yu is still a student, a college student, and has not yet graduated, and all the money she spends is given by her family.
She could take a thousand dollars to buy a dress.
Xia Yang looked down at herself.
Fifteen short sleeves, twenty pieces of seven-point pants on the lower body, and fifty shoes on the feet, all of which add up to less than a fraction of this skirt.
Xia Yang had a sad feeling in her heart, but she smiled, smiled and talked about something else, and asked Wang Yu if she was tired.
Because she saw Wang Jianguo's black face, she knew that Wang Jianguo was also dissatisfied with the price of this skirt.
She was afraid that Wang Jianguo and Wang Yu would be angry, and she was afraid that Wang Jianguo would talk about Wang Yu and make the atmosphere stiff.
The relationship between father and daughter is not particularly good now, and she doesn't want them to quarrel as soon as they meet.
