No one can escape the law of true fragrance

The ward is very quiet.

The patient on the next bed was discharged from the hospital the day before yesterday, and grandma was the only one left in the spacious three-person room. Her voice was quiet just now, but Ling Xi heard it clearly. He understood in his heart that Qiu Luo should have told For grandma, Ling Xi didn't know what Qiu Luo was thinking, but now was not the time to think about it.

Seeing his grandma's serious expression, Ling Xi subconsciously hid his hands behind his back, not wanting his grandma to see the ring on his hand, before he could think up his words, grandma went on to say: "You don't have to hide it from me, Xiao Luo told me everything , you are married, and your partner is a very rich man, is that right?"

Ling Xi lowered her head, evasive, "Grandma, I didn't mean to hide it from you, I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to accept that my marriage partner is a man for a while."

"Although I am old, I also watch TV. I know that men and women are different now than before. You have grown up and have your own ideas. I will not interfere with these." Grandma said slowly, "I just want to Let me ask you, did you take Zhou's money to pay my medical bills?"

Ling Xi didn't expect that grandma didn't care about him marrying a man, she was slightly shocked and looked up at grandma, under grandma's stern gaze, she had to admit and nodded, "Zhou Chenwang's family has helped a little."

"Stupid!" Grandma suddenly yelled at Ling Xi, "You get married when you get married. Why do you have property disputes with others? I don't want to know why the Zhou family is so rich. money!"

Grandma was emotional, so she inevitably spoke louder, and couldn't help coughing while covering her chest after saying a word, Ling Xi hurriedly stepped forward to pat her on the back to relieve her, "Grandma, don't get excited..."

Grandma coughed a few times, regained her strength, and continued: "You are not young, I am very happy to fall in love and get married, even if the other party is not the granddaughter-in-law I imagined, I am also happy, there is always someone who can make love with you Companion, but why do you take so much money from other people? We are not in the same family with them. After getting married, you will inevitably be looked down upon. After you collect the money, you will be even less confident. If you have no right to refute, what status do you have?" The more the grandmother spoke, the more sad she became, "Or did you marry that person for my medical expenses?"

Ling Xi was so frightened by grandma's astonishing conjecture that she broke out in a cold sweat. He hurriedly made up nonsense, "No, we got married because we really liked each other. Your medical expenses are just shared by him because he loves me."

"It's fine if it's not. If it's really because of me, then my wife's life is useless. I've caused you so much trouble in the past two years. I lost my good job and spent all my money in the hospital. Thinking about it, I really feel sorry for you." You, I said at the time don’t treat it, if you insist on it, I can still live for a few days at my age with so much money.” Grandma sighed sadly.

Ling Xi hugged her lightly, and comforted her with a smile, "No matter how much money is spent, it will be treated. You are my only family member. Don't think about it all day, little old lady. Zhou Chenwang is very kind to me. He is a person who knows books and etiquette, and he is very kind to me, so you can relax."

Ling Xi said it with a smile, but his heart was very bitter. He remembered that when he was a child, he had pneumonia in a child, and his fever was so delirious. Living in the village, I have some prestige. I used my dignity for most of my life to finally collect enough medical expenses, and then I worked odd jobs day and night to pay back the money.

Even in the most difficult time of life, she didn't say a word of complaint in front of Ling Xi, but now she began to worry that she would become a burden.

Hearing what Ling Xi said, grandma's expression finally relaxed, "Even so, the money should be paid back sooner. Although the houses in my hometown are not worth much, you can always have more than [-] yuan." , pay back part of it first, and we will pay back the rest slowly.”

"How can I do that!" Ling Xi became anxious when she heard that, "That is the ancestral house, where the roots of several lifetimes have been. Didn't you say before that after selling the ancestral house, you have no face to go down to meet the ancestors of the Ling family?" Zong?"

"It's all old feudalism. I can't believe what I said before, and I probably won't go back in the future. I'll call the village chief tomorrow and ask him to help with this matter."

Grandma's attitude was firm, and Ling Xi didn't know how to refute for a moment. There were many opportunities to sell the ancestral house in the past, but grandma gritted her teeth and refused to sell.Ling Xi knew that grandma was still afraid that he would be wronged at Zhou's house. Thinking of this, his nose felt sore, and he hung his head and said nothing.

Grandma patted the back of his hand and said earnestly, "Xiaoxi, no matter if you marry a man or a woman, the most important thing for two people to be together is equality. Family reasons have prevented you from being equal, so you can't despise yourself." , don’t owe others love, let alone money. I don’t want you to live with him with this debt in your heart all the time. If you can pay back some, I’m almost in good health now. Take some time to contact me these days An economical nursing home, if you can afford it with your own salary, the cost of living in the hospital is too high, it must be their family spending money, if I stay for one more day, we will owe the Zhou family one more day."

"I also paid the hospitalization fee, and I said I would pay it back to him." Ling Xi lacked confidence in her words. At the beginning, the marriage contract was 30 yuan. After her grandmother underwent surgery, she had to be hospitalized for observation. The Zhou family generously paid the hospitalization fee. They paid together, and Ling Xi took the hospital bills to keep accounts every day. He thought that he would pay Zhou Chenwang slowly for the expenses outside the contract.

"This matter is settled like this, all right, you go back, I should rest too."

Grandma is a strong person. Once a decision is made, no one can change it. Of course Ling Xi doesn't want grandma to be discharged from the hospital to live in a cheap nursing home, but if he doesn't help her arrange it, he believes that grandma will contact her by herself. Ling Xi never questioned her mobility.

Ling Xi walked out of the hospital with his head drooping. Zhou Chenwang's car stopped at the main entrance of the hospital with headlights on. Ling Xi opened the door and sat in, letting out a long sigh.

Zhou Chenwang hurriedly asked him what was going on, and Ling Xi told Zhou Chenwang about the conversation with grandma in a low voice, and finally asked him, "Why did Qiu Luo come to tell grandma about our marriage?"

Zhou Chenwang was furious when he heard that, and cursed and said, "Why else, I let him not get along in the Xingyue Club. He came to the company several times to see me, but he was kicked out by the security guards. He couldn't be recruited. I want to beg you to make up. I was blocked by you again, so I ran to grandma to act as a demon, probably to let grandma know that we are married, and then live in our house, so he can go to my house under the pretext of visiting grandma."

Ling Xi was dumbfounded, he didn't expect this level, and then wanted to laugh, it turned out that in Qiu Luo's eyes, he and his grandmother were both snobby eyes, and it was not enough for one person to live in the Zhou family's mansion, the other would catch up too live in.

"Do you really want to discharge grandma? At such an advanced age, I think it's safe to live in the hospital." Zhou Chenwang said.

Ling Xi sighed softly, "The old man's attitude is very tough and he refuses to be hospitalized again. Let's go to a nursing home first tomorrow."

Zhou Chenwang started the car, turned the steering wheel and said, "Don't worry about this, I'll let Uncle Sun arrange it for you."

"No need." Ling Xi hastily refused, "I can't afford the place you're looking for."

"What nonsense are you talking about? I don't want you to pay. Your grandma is my grandma." Zhou Chenwang looked at the road ahead, but still didn't realize the meaning of Ling Xi's words.

Holding the seat belt, Ling Xi firmly said: "It's really unnecessary, I'll just find it myself, even if you book it, we won't go."

"What do you mean." Zhou Chen looked over, his face became a little ugly, "Now you still have to distinguish me so clearly?"

Ling Xi looked at the windshield, thinking about what grandma said, feeling sad. He and Zhou Chenwang had an unequal relationship from the very first acquaintance, and it was destined to be like this for the rest of their lives. Grandma was right, he couldn't owe more , and the senior nursing home that Zhou Chenwang booked, grandma will definitely not go.

Ling Xi didn't speak, and Zhou Chenwang became more and more angry. He suddenly stopped the car on the side of the road, turned his body and stared at Ling Xi, "I'm talking to you, and you still have to distinguish it so clearly?"

"Zhou Chenwang, these are two different things." Ling Xi said.

"Why are they two different things? We got married and lived together. We hugged and hugged and kissed. It was almost that. Can't I arrange a more comfortable place for our grandma? Why don't you spend a little money on me? So unhappy?"

Faced with Zhou Chenwang's questioning, Ling Xi was speechless. The heavy blow of reality shattered all the confusion and passion at night. Grandma thought that they were in love with each other, and she wanted Ling Xi not to lose herself. But they themselves are a contract marriage, how can they expect equality.

Zhou Chenwang is emotional and doesn't care about anything, but Ling Xi can't, he can't be taken for granted by Zhou Chenwang time and time again.

If he didn't know Zhou Chenwang's intentions for him, if he had never been tempted, he might be able to convince himself that it was just a deal, but he knew very well that their relationship was far from a simple deal.

One year passed quickly, Ling Xi owed less favors, and when the contract ended, he could say that he liked it more confidently.

"Ling Xi." Seeing that he was silent, Zhou Chen called him.

Ling Xi squeezed the seat belt, feeling the edge of the seat belt passing over his palm, lowered his eyes, and said lightly, "Go home."

"Damn! So it's all fucking wishful thinking on my part!" Zhou Chenwang cursed, kicked the accelerator and drove the car back home quickly.

The neon lights on the side of the road flashed quickly outside the window, Ling Xi looked at it blankly, and for the first time in his life, he had the idea of ​​hating his own life experience.
