At this moment, Jiang Feng thought of something and asked curiously, âThatâs right. Second Uncle, how did you know that Little Sister is at this hospital? And whereâs Second Aunt?â
âDo you remember your Uncle Bai Yuan? He was the one who told me about it. Heâs been very busy recently so he couldnât come. He also said he wanted to give you money,â Jiang Fengâs second uncle said, âHeâs coming to visit soon; heâll arrive in a while. Your second aunt is in the neighboring city. I was thinking of returning to the city after bringing the money to you.â
âHe wanted to give me money?â Jiang Feng sneered inwardly. If his second uncle did not mention it, he would have forgotten about it. Previously, when he had posted saying that he had lost all his money after investing in Bitcoin and was in urgent need of money to save his sister, Bai Yuan had been the fiercest in scolding him. Bai Yuan even scolded all 18 generations of the Jiang familyâs ancestors.
Bai Yuan had really shown his true colors when Jiang Feng was down. Now that he knew the bankruptcy was fake, he wanted to use a little money to obtain much more money.
Jiang Feng sneered. âHeâs really smart. He even dared to use Second Uncleâ¦â
Speaking of the devil, before Jiang Feng could reply, a man with a white beard came in. Behind him was a group of relatives who wore ingratiating smiles on their faces. All of them carried fruit baskets and all sorts of tonics.
In less than half a minute, the room was crowded.
âI havenât seen all of you in a while. I didnât disturb you, did I?â a middle-aged woman said. She stepped forward and held Yu Xiumeiâs hand affectionately.
The others were unwilling to be outdone. They stepped forward and began to show their concern.
âHow are Little Yuâs legs? Jianzhong, are you feeling better?â
âI was in the wrong before. I didnât mean to ignore all of you. Iâm no better than beasts,â someone said as he slapped himself. However, the strength he used was negligible.
âOld Jiang, do you still need our help? Weâll definitely do our best to help you!â
Meanwhile, Jiang Fengâs second uncle looked at Bai Yuan and said, âBai Yuan, youâre here.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Bai Yuan nodded and said warmly, âThatâs right. I didnât expect you to arrive before me. I thought weâd arrive at the same time.â Then, he turned to Jiang Feng and said, âLittle Feng, Iâll send you some money for Little Yuâs medical fees. Do you need more? I can help pay for it first.â
âNo need. I donât want to owe you anything,â Jiang Feng said, annoyed. These people were worse than flies and difficult to get rid of.
Seeing that he was not making any progress with Jiang Feng, Bai Yuan said to Yu Xiumei, âSister-in-law, howâs Little Yuâs condition now? Is she alright?â
At the same time, Jiang Jianzhong had a headache when he saw the group of relatives in the room.
âWhy did these people suddenly appear? Did they really know that Little Feng isnât bankrupt?â
Yu Xiumei forced a smile on her face and said, âSheâs fine. Little Feng is very filial. Heâs arranged everything for his father and sister.â
Jiang Fengâs expression was indifferent. He did not bother to be polite to these people who were desperate for his money. They could not find his new house so they came to the hospital. He wanted to see what kind of tricks these people were going to play next.
Bai Yuan pretended to sigh in relief as he nodded. Then, he said, âIt seems like thereâs no use for the money I prepared. Little Yu, what do you want to eat? Uncle Bai Yuan will buy it for you!â
Little Yu rolled her eyes. She said bluntly, âOld fox, stop pretending. You donât have any good intentions.â
âChild, Iâm your uncle. Why are you speaking so rudely? Did someone bully you? Tell me, and Iâll help you vent your anger!â
Little Yu felt speechless
âDoes he not understand human language? For money, heâs really shameless! This is ridiculous!â
Meanwhile, Jiang Fengâs second uncle also saw the true colors of this group of relatives. He stepped forward and waved his hand as he said, âThird Brother, Eighth Brother, Second Aunt, and Seventh Sister, Little Yuâs legs are not completely healed. She needs to rest. You should visit another time.â
âSecond Uncleâ¦â Jiang Fengâs heart moved again as memories surfaced in his mind. When he was young, his second uncle was like that as well. His second uncle had always cared the most about him and his sister. Now that he had the ability, he was determined to repay his second uncle. He wanted his second uncle to live happily in his old age like his parents.
After listening to his second brother, Jiang Jianzhong became smarter. He said, âLittle Yu wants to rest. All of you should leave first and visit another time.â
âThisâ¦â
The relatives were unable to react for a moment. They were only here for a few minutes but were already asked to leave. After a brief moment, they finally reacted.
âOld Jiang, where are you staying now? Why is the old house empty? We canât visit an empty houseâ¦â
âAre you living on the streets now? Old Jiang, you can stay at my house if you have nowhere to stay! However, how can you have no place to live? Old Jiang, you must be living very well now, right?â
âWhen are you going to invite us to have a look at your new house? Old Jiang, you really treat us like outsiders. How can you not tell us about the fake bankruptcy? You made us worry for nothing.â
Little Yu rolled her eyes. She said loudly, clearly indignant, âAll of you ingrates, get lost! Where we live now has nothing to do with you!â
Little Yu was extremely irritated when she was these people pretending to be worried. She had clearly seen their viciousness previously. Now that those relatives knew they were not bankrupt, they came back like a swarm of flies.
âChild, how can you be so rude? Old Jiang, you have to discipline her properly. How can she speak to her elders like that?â
âThatâs right, Old Jiang. This child has to be beaten. Otherwise, sheâll only become more rebellious. Sheâs already so rude now. I canât imagine how much worse it would be in the future!â
âI think you should send her to a boarding school. The teachers are first-class and can help you educate her. I have a few recommendations. Do you want me to introduce them to you?â
Jiang Jianzhong was furious. He did not care much about what people said about him, but he could tolerate others speaking about his daughter in such a manner. He said coldly, âEnough. My child has nothing to do with any of you. Sheâs very good. Your words are too much.â
Yu Xiumei was equally furious. Her face and her neck were red as she said, âMy Little Yu has always been very good. You donât need to care about her. Just take good care of yourself.â
âMy little sister needs to rest. Please hurry up and leave,â Jiang Feng said indifferently as he opened the door.
Bai Yuan saw that the situation was not right so he hurriedly said, âOld Jiang, donât be angry. I was just joking. Iâll leave first. Little Yu, take good care of yourself.â
Seeing this, the other relatives followed Bai Yuanâs lead.
âLittle Yu, I only said those words because I care about you. Child, donât be so petty. When you were young, I used to bring you out to play.â
Jiang Fengâs second uncle said with a frown, âAlright, alright, leave now. When Little Yu feels better, you visit her.â
âSecond Brother, youâre overstepping your boundary. This doesnât seem to have anything to do with you,â someone said unhappily.
âOld Jiang and the others have said that weâre disturbing Little Yuâs rest. It includes you as well. What are you pretending for?â
âYou should leave with us. Little Yu needs to rest after all.â
âLittle Yu is very close to her second uncle. How can we compare to him? Letâs leave first. The most important thing is for Little Yu to rest,â Bai Yuan said. At the same time, he had other thoughts on his mind. They could not stay at the ward nor could they go to the Jiang family house now. However, as long as they persisted, it was only a matter of time before they succeeded.
