Chapter 106: Collapse
After dinner, Su Ci's mobile phone rang again, and seeing that it was He Yulan's call again, Su Ci's face quickly became difficult to see.
Jian Yi turned sideways and hugged Su Ci, also looked down, and saw that it was He Yulan's call, he raised his eyebrows proudly, and then turned his head sideways to kiss her cheek, and said:
"Ah Ci, answer the phone first, maybe she has something else. ”
Su Ci nodded, pressed the answer button before hanging up the phone, and in the next moment, He Yulan's crying voice came:
"Su Ci, Libao, something happened to your sister...... You hurry up and come back with 20,000 yuan, and the hospital is waiting to pay the surgery fee...... Why do you say my life is so miserable, what will my poor Libao do in the future......"
Su Ci was startled, and quickly sat up straight and asked:
"What's wrong with Libao, what's wrong?"
He Yulan continued to sobble and cry:
“...... Finger, your sister's little finger is broken, and now she is undergoing surgery, and she doesn't know if she can connect it, and even if she does, she doesn't know if she can recover well, how can you say that Libao is so miserable, if she is disabled, how will she live in the future......"
Su Ci's brain was a little dazed by this news, and he looked up at Jian Yi in a daze, as if he was asking if he had heard it wrong.
Jian Yi knew her thoughts just by looking at Su Ci's eyes, raised his hand to touch her head, and comforted her in a low voice:
"Ah Ci, don't worry, as long as the finger is still in the doctor, it can be connected, it's just a minor operation, your sister's hand will be fine, don't worry, you won't be disabled." ”
He Yulan's sobbing continued on the phone, and Su Ci was relieved to hear Jian Yi say this in a daze.
He Yulan said on the phone that Su Libao was undergoing surgery, which means that her fingers are still there, and there is no big problem.
Although Su Libao has never treated her as a sister, and she always sneers at her at home, she is still a little girl after all, and she has not done anything excessive to Su Ci.
Jian Yi saw that she came back to her senses, and continued:
"However, the recovery time after the operation is a bit long, it is estimated that it will be impossible to learn the piano within a year, if the operation effect is not good, the recovery may not be as flexible as before, but you can rest assured, it will definitely not be disabled." ”
Su Ci didn't take Jian Yi's words about not being able to learn piano for a year, and now his fingers are broken, as long as he can keep his hand, it is already a blessing not to be disabled, how can he expect to continue to learn piano and increase the burden on his fingers.
He Yulan was still crying breathlessly on the phone, Su Ci opened her mouth to comfort her, and asked about the operation fee.
"Twenty thousand...... Your dad is also here, he means that you want to come back with 20,000 yuan first, and then talk about it when it's not enough......"
When He Yulan said this, Su Ci vaguely heard Su Wensheng saying "20,000 yuan first" next to him.
And Jian Yi had a gloomy face, pulled Su Ci's arm, and made a gesture to her.
Su Ci instantly understood what Jian Yi meant, he said that Su Libao's surgery fee was only 10,000 yuan.
When he realized that He Yulan was a lion and wanted to ask her for an extra 10,000 yuan, Su Ci felt a little chill in his heart, and his feeling of distress for Su Libao also subsided a lot.
She didn't know why He Yulan was in such a hurry and sad, and she was still in the mood to ask her for 10,000 yuan, let alone why Su Wensheng would work with He Yulan to calculate her.
In Su Ci's impression, even if Su Wensheng was partial to Su Libao, he did not scold and treat him harshly, and every year when he went home for the Chinese New Year, he would stuff her with hundreds of yuan of pocket money behind He Yulan's back, so that she could buy some food to replenish her body.
Although the money is not much, this is a part of Su Wensheng's heart, and Su Ci has always been very grateful to him.
Strictly speaking, Su Wensheng is the only person in the family who is good to Su Ci, although because of his health, he can't bear the burden of supporting the family, but in Su Ci's heart, Su Wensheng, as a father, is indeed more competent than He Yulan as a mother.
It was only at this moment that Su Wensheng's image in Su Ci's heart suddenly collapsed, and she even began to suspect that Su Wensheng's kindness to her over the years was an illusion, and the purpose was to coax her to take the initiative to take the responsibility of supporting her family.
After realizing this, Su Ci lowered her head again with red eyes, and when she heard He Yulan's continuous urging over there, she took a deep breath and tried her best to suppress the emotions in her heart and said:
"Mom, I only have 5,000 yuan in my hand, I'll borrow 5,000 yuan from my friends later and call you back, if it's not enough, you go out with Dad to borrow money for Libao to see your hand, no matter how much I can't get." ”
He Yulan asked the doctor, and knew that the operation fee was only about 10,000 yuan, and it was really Su Wensheng's idea to ask Su Ci for 20,000 yuan, he was mainly worried that if the operation was not successful, it would cost money when he had to do a second operation, so he would ask for an extra 10,000 yuan to be prepared.
And He Yulan also has her own purpose, in addition to wanting to find out Su Ci's attitude towards her, she also wants to explore the details of Su Ci, and wants to know how much money she has in her hands.
At this time, I heard Su Ci say that she wanted to lend money to Su Libao to show her hands, and He Yulan was not in the mood to continue to argue with Su Ci on the issue of money, so she hung up the phone after a few perfunctory words.
After Su Ci put down his mobile phone, he directly turned around and hung on Jian Yi's neck, buried his head in his chest and refused to get up for a long time.
She felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, after so many years her self-righteous fatherly love illusion was ruthlessly punctured, revealing the cruel reality, Su Ci could no longer deceive herself like before.
For the first time, she clearly felt that she was just a tool to make money for that family, and there was no other value.
Su Ci's heart was cold.
Jian Yi was a little uneasy, this was the first time Su Ci threw himself into his arms, but he didn't have any joy at all, he could feel the sad aura emanating from Su Ci's body, and he could also feel that her mood was extremely bad at this time.
He lowered his head and kissed Su Ci's heart, and then reached out to pick up her hair, and comforted her:
"Ah Ci, it's okay, you still have me......"
Seeing her so uncomfortable, Jian Yi wondered for the first time in her heart if she had secretly done something wrong to break Su Libao's hand.
However, when he thought of the news sent by the people in his hometown about the Su family, Jian Yi felt that he had done nothing wrong.
Su Wensheng and his wife have never treated Su Ci as a daughter at all, and Su Libao has not been bad to Su Ci behind his back, especially in the past few years, the family has been supported by Su Ci alone.
Now He Yulan proposed to let Su Libao learn piano, which is another big burden for Su Ci.
