Su Gang did not borrow money, and he was restless and frowning all the way.
When he got home, he didn't dare to enter the house and didn't know how to face his father full of expectations.
He squatted in the yard, rolled up a dry tobacco, and took a few sips.
Someone walked up to him and raised his head, it was his wife Lin Hong.
Lin Hong saw his frowning brow and asked softly: "Don't lend it to us?"
Su Gang sighed: "I'm afraid we can't pay it back, so I won't borrow a penny."
Lin Hong had long guessed that this was the result, so she pulled Su Gang to stand up and whispered: "Go in first, the old lady is in a bad condition."
Hearing this sentence, Su Gang was shocked and sweated in a cold sweat. He quickly snatched the cigarette and rushed into the room.
The old lady was afraid of the cold, so thick curtains were hung on the windows, making the room look a little dim.
Su Gang saw Hao Mei, a pale and skinny mother sitting on the kang.
His father Su Jianjun sat next to him with a sad look on his face. He didn't ask Su Gang if he had borrowed money because he had guessed the answer in his heart.
Hao Mei raised her hand with great effort, and Su Gang quickly sat beside her.
"Mom, don't worry, you won't have any trouble. I will definitely borrow money and send you to the hospital in the town for medical treatment."
Hao Mei wanted to speak, but she coughed violently and suddenly vomited a mouthful of blood.
"mom!"
"Old woman!"
The three of them were so scared that they shouted at the same time. Lin Hong rushed over and stroked the old lady's chest.
After a while, the old lady finally breathed, but her breathing was still a little uncomfortable.
"Don't... don't borrow money anymore, I... I'm not cured."
Haomei said with great difficulty, his voice intermittently.
"No, how can we not cure?" Su Jianjun spoke.
Hao Mei pulled the corner of her mouth: "I know my situation. If it cannot be cured, you...you should keep the money and live a good life."
Su Gang's eyes were red, he was angry at his incompetence and poverty.
Su Jianjun also frowned. He took a deep breath and said, "I'll borrow it. If I can't borrow it, I... I'll sell the house."
Su Gang was slightly stunned, a little surprised by his father's decision.
Su Jianjun's eyes fell on Su Gang and Lin Hong: "No matter whether you agree or not, the old woman's disease must be cured."
Su Gang and Lin Hong looked at each other, and the two nodded at the same time: "Of course we need to treat it."
Lin Hong also agreed to the father and son's decision. She took a deep breath and said, "I'll go back to my parents' home tomorrow to see if I can borrow some money."
Su Jianjun's eyes trembled, and he looked at his daughter-in-law, his lips trembled twice, and he nodded.
Next, the three of them fell into silence again.
Su Gang remembered what Su Jianshe said, and after hesitating, he decided to tell his old father about this matter.
"Dad, I heard from my uncle that Suhang has made money now, and it has made a lot of money."
Hearing the words Su Hang, Su Jianjun's face suddenly became dark: "Don't mention that unfilial son to me, I, Su Jianjun, don't have his son."
Su Gang sighed and did not mention it again.
Hao Mei had tears in her eyes: "Don't blame him, after all... after all... she is our son, although... she has done many wrong things..."
Hao Mei tried hard to grab Su Jianjun's hand and looked at him with a pleading look.
Su Jianjun snorted coldly: "Don't worry about recuperating. As for that unfilial son, I will pretend that he does not have this son."
Hao Mei wanted to say something else, but she was unable to speak, collapsed on the kang, and coughed violently.
After a while, Hao Mei fell into a drowsiness again.
The remaining three people looked at each other a few times, and Su Jianjun walked towards the door in his shoes, "I'll go outside and have a walk."
"Dad, where are you going? I borrowed all the things I can, but... everyone knows the situation in our family. They are afraid that we won't pay back the money, so... they all made excuses to refuse."
Su Gang's face was covered with sadness, and Su Jianjun also had a bitter look on his face.
He glanced at the dilapidated house and said after a while:
"I will give my old face. Even if I kneel down and beg them, I will definitely borrow money and treat the old woman."
Su Gang felt complicated inside. If he hadn't been incompetent, how could he have no money to treat his mother?
"Dad, I'll go with you." Su Gang stood up.
He told Lin Hong to take good care of his mother, so he walked to Su Jianjun and walked out of the house together.
...
At this time, Suhang ran to his parents and elder brother's house as soon as possible.
But halfway through the way, he suddenly remembered that he had no penny on him, and he could not solve anything even if he went back like this.
Thinking of this, he quickly turned around and ran towards home.
Luo Ling'er had just done the housework and was playing in the yard with her daughter when she saw Su Hang rushing into the yard with a panic on her face.
She was startled and hurriedly walked forward and asked anxiously: "Suhang, didn't you go to the mountain to pick fruits? Why are you back? Is something wrong? Are you pushing the cart?"
Su Hang was also anxious: "Ling'er, give me all the money at home, I'm in urgent need."
Urgent use?
Luo Ling'er was slightly stunned and took a step back. "What are you going to do?"
Su Hang realized that he was too anxious and could easily cause misunderstandings.
"Ling'er, I'm not going to go gamble and drink."
"Then what are you going to do? The family is planning to buy cabbage seeds." Luo Ling'er looked puzzled.
Su Hang nodded and gently buckled his hands on Luo Ling'er's shoulder: "I know the money is useful, but my mother is seriously ill now and needs money to see a doctor."
"My mother-in-law is sick?" Luo Ling'er looked surprised.
Su Hang nodded: "It was Xiao Lu who told me that my mother was seriously ill. Ling'er, I must take the money to save her now. Do you understand?"
Luo Ling'er's expression became serious and nodded immediately, "Wait a minute, I'll go back to the house to withdraw money immediately."
After saying that, she quickly walked into the house, took out all the money from the house from the cabinet, and stuffed it into Suhang's hands.
"If it's not enough, let's go out to borrow."
Su Hang excitedly hugged Luo Ling'er in his arms: "Ling'er, thank you."
Luo Ling'er smiled: "Mother-in-law is your mother and my mother, Su Hang, I'll go there with you."
Su Hang was a little hesitant. After all, Luo Ling'er is pregnant now and he is afraid that there will be danger.
Knowing what he was worried about, Luo Ling'er held his hand: "Suhang, I'll also think of some effort."
Su Hang thought about it and agreed to Luo Ling'er.
Luo Ling'er handed over her baby daughter to her neighbor Zhou Sao for help, and found the pastries she bought last time in Suhang and prepared to take them to the old house.
Su Hang's brows were always frowning.
Luo Ling'er knew he was worried, so she took his hand and comforted her: "Don't worry, my mother-in-law will definitely not be in trouble."
Su Hang sighed: "I am not only worried about her health now, but also about... they will not forgive me."
Luo Ling'er thought for a moment and asked, "What happened before that made them unforgive you?"
