Chapter 391: He Wenhui Takes Her Mother to See a Doctor
After the farce, Yan Fugui compensated Jia Zhangshi with five yuan, and the matter was finally over.
Soon, Jia Dongxu's funeral ended hastily.
Back home, Liu Haizhong angrily smashed his teacup on the ground, cursing, "That idiot Yan Fugui! I was hoping to use this incident to get the neighborhood committee director to take me seriously and reinstate my position as an old man, but who knew that damn Yan Fugui was still so cunning!"
Liu Haizhong's wife, Li Chunhua, quickly comforted him, "Old Liu, let it go. This is fate. Who would have thought that Yan Fugui would even dare to scheme for the money of the dead?"
Liu Haizhong couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
On the other side, the Yan family.
Yan Fugui sat in the room, sighing repeatedly and muttering, "What a loss, what a loss."
Seeing Yan Fugui's appearance, Yang Ruihua quickly said, "Hey, Yan, what's wrong with you? You dare to embezzle money from that dead man, Jia Dongxu?"
Yan Fugui looked at his wife and said helplessly, "Sigh, who would have thought that this would be talked about, especially by this good-for-nothing?" He pointed at Yan Jiecheng as he spoke.
Yan Jiecheng said aggrievedly, "Dad, how can you blame me for this? I clearly put in the effort! Who would have thought that Jia Dongxu's coffin rope would break? Besides, if we can't lift it, it's only because you're usually too stingy and I don't get enough to eat."
When Yan Fugui heard Yan Jiecheng dare to complain about him, he immediately roared angrily, "Get out of here! If you hadn't brought up the three-cent thing, would I have lost so much face in front of everyone?"
When Yan Jiecheng saw that Yan Fugui was about to lose his temper, he quickly ran out, not wanting to show off at this moment.
Courtyard No. 90.
Zhang Lei listened to what had happened in Courtyard No. 95 and couldn't stop laughing. He clapped his hands and said to He Yushui, "Yushui, see, I told you so! If I hadn't stopped you, you might have been tainted by bad luck by now."
Seeing Zhang Lei laughing uncontrollably, He Yushui said helplessly, "Alright, alright, they're having a funeral. Look at you, laughing like that."
At this moment, Ye Shuqin walked over, looked at Zhang Lei, then at He Yushui, and said with a smile, "Yushui, don't mind him. He just loves to join in the fun. If you don't let him laugh when he hears something so good, he'll probably be bursting with joy."
Zhang Lei looked at Ye Shuqin and smiled, "Yushui, Shuqin understands me best."
He Yushui said helplessly, "Brother Zhang Lei, you can laugh here by yourself. Sister Shuqin and I are going to go check out the clothes we made for the baby."
Soon, the two arrived at the room. He Yushui looked at the clothes Ye Shuqin had made for the unborn baby and exclaimed, "Sister Shuqin, you're so skillful! These baby clothes are so beautiful!"
Ye Shuqin's face was radiant as she smiled and said, "If you want to learn, I'll teach you. When you have a baby in the future, you can wear such beautiful clothes too."
Hearing Ye Shuqin say this, He Yushui blushed immediately: "Sister Shuqin, what are you saying... I still have a long way to go."
Ye Shuqin looked at He Yushui and teased, "What's wrong? Are you shy, little girl? It was bound to happen sooner or later. If you can't wait, you can stay here tonight."
He Yushui blushed deeply and said, "Sister Shuqin, if you say that again, I won't talk to you anymore."
Seeing that she was indeed extremely embarrassed, Ye Shuqin quickly said, "Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore. Come on, I'll teach you how to do it."
Soon, the two began discussing every single stitch.
On the other side, the He family.
With the little money her family had, He Wenhui, along with He Wenyuan and her mother Yu Qiuhua, arrived at the hospital.
He Wenhui reassured her mother, "Mom, don't be nervous, we're just having a routine check-up."
Yu Qiuhua understood what her daughter meant and said, "Don't worry, your mother knows what she's doing. Whether or not it can be cured, I'm prepared."
He Wenyuan, who was standing nearby, said happily, "Mom, don't worry, your eyes will definitely be fine. We will definitely be able to cure them."
Soon, the doctor took Yu Qiuhua into the treatment room for examination. He Wenhui and He Wenyuan waited anxiously in the corridor.
He Wenyuan kept asking, "Sister, do you think Mom's eyes can be cured?"
He Wenhui grew impatient with the questioning: "Can you please stop talking? You're getting me annoyed. Mom's inside, we'll find out when she comes out, won't we? Just wait a bit."
Sure enough, after waiting for more than half an hour, the doctor pushed Yu Qiuhua out of the room.
He Wenhui and He Wenyuan quickly went to greet her and asked, "Doctor, how are my mother's eyes?"
The doctor looked at the two sisters: "Your mother's eyes can be treated, but..."
He Wenyuan quickly interrupted, "But what?"
The doctor said, "However, the surgical conditions are quite demanding, the costs are substantial, and we'll need to use the latest and most advanced equipment. You need to be mentally prepared for that."
Hearing that the cost was enormous, He Wenhui's heart skipped a beat.
However, He Wenyuan seemed not to hear him and excitedly asked, "Really? My mother's eyes can really be cured?"
The doctor nodded: "It is treatable, but it requires expert consultation, advanced equipment, and funding. If funding is not an issue, we can prepare the equipment in advance."
He Wenyuan was about to speak when He Wenhui interrupted him, saying, "Wenyuan, let's go home first."
After returning home, Yu Qiuhua spoke first: "I'm not going to treat my eyes for now. You all go about your business. I'm an old man, if I can't see, I can't see."
Hearing her mother's words, He Wenhui comforted her, "Mom, don't say that. Don't worry, I will definitely cure your eyes."
After saying that, He Wenhui left the room with He Wenyuan before Yu Qiuhua could speak again, leaving Yu Qiuhua alone in the room sighing.
He Wenyuan looked at his sister and asked, "Sis, do you think Mom's eyes should be treated?"
He Wenhui said firmly, "We will definitely treat Mom's eyes."
Upon hearing this, He Wenyuan said, "Sister, should I tell Zhang Lei about this first? Maybe he'll be willing to help Mom get her eyes treated now."
He Wenhui shook her head: "Wenyuan, you've heard the doctor say it yourself, this isn't a small amount of money, it's a huge sum. Why should they give it to us?"
He Wenyuan looked at He Wenhui and said, "Sister, with your beauty and education, what man wouldn't love you? Besides, I think you have feelings for Zhang Lei too, don't you?"
He Wenhui lowered her head and didn't say anything more, lost in thought.
After thinking for a while, she looked up at He Wenyuan and said, "Wenyuan, do you know where Zhang Lei lives? I want to meet him."
Upon hearing this, He Wenyuan was overjoyed: "Sister, really? I know, I know!"
He then prepared to take He Wenhui to find Zhang Lei.
Seeing He Wenyuan's excited expression, He Wenhui suddenly felt a little guilty.
He Wenyuan grabbed her arm and said, "Sis, it's not far from where we live. Come on, I'll take you there."
