Reborn as an 80s-aged woman, her unfilial son begs for forgiveness on his knees.
Chapter 173 But She Has No Money: Father He Feigns Illness
Pan's mother stared at the ten yuan on the table, her face instantly changed, she pointed at Li Wenjun, her lips trembling so much that she couldn't say a word for a long time: "What, what do you mean by this?"
Even if our Pan family is poor, we don't need your ten yuan to get rid of us!
You just think our Xiaofang isn't clean enough, right?
"She thinks about you every day, how could you treat her like this!"
Upon hearing this, Pan Wenfang, who was in the inner room, burst into tears. She scrambled out of the room, threw herself at Li Wenjun's feet, and hugged his legs, sobbing uncontrollably: "Wenjun, I know I was wrong, I really know I was wrong!"
Please give me another chance, okay? I promise I'll live a good life with you from now on, I'll take good care of you, and I'll never mess around again. I can't live without you...
Li Wenjun frowned, looked down at Pan Wenfang who was crying on his lap, and gently took a step back to avoid her touch: "Xiaofang, I came here today to make things clear to you, it's all over between us a long time ago."
This ten yuan is for you to improve your health; it has no other meaning.
Take good care of your health, find a suitable person in the future, and live a good life together.
After saying that, he stopped looking at the mother and daughter of the Pan family crying and wailing, turned around, opened the door, and walked out without looking back.
Watching his resolute back, Pan's mother was so angry that she sat down on the ground, slapping her thigh and crying and cursing, "You heartless bastard!"
My daughter risked her life for you, and this is how you treat her! Is your heart made of stone?!
But despite her scolding, Li Wenjun had already walked far away and couldn't hear her words anymore.
Li Wenjun truly never expected that Pan Wenfang would do such a foolish thing.
He had actually softened his heart.
But he was afraid his mother would scold him for being a good-for-nothing, a green-haired turtle.
But seeing Pan Wenfang's tearful face, he still couldn't bring himself to ignore her.
Never mind, I'll come see her again in a couple of days.
Even if we can't become husband and wife, we shouldn't become enemies, right?
Thinking back to the sweet moments he shared with Pan Wenfang, Li Wenjun felt very sad.
How did two people who clearly loved each other end up like this?
As Li Wenjun walked out of the alley near the Pan family's house, it was already dark.
He stood at the alley entrance, glanced back at the window still lit by a dim yellow light, and felt a heavy weight in his heart, as if something was blocking it.
He took a deep breath, suppressed the indescribable feeling, and turned to leave.
Meanwhile, Li Wenhai and He Caifeng were at He Caifeng's parents' home.
Ever since the He couple returned to the village, He Caifeng has been sending messages to her family every few days, expressing her concern for the elderly couple.
He Caifeng felt uneasy when her parents stopped pressuring her for money.
The main problem is that she doesn't have money.
If she had money, she would definitely help her third brother marry his wife in a grand and glorious way, so that her parents could hold their heads high in the village and she could have face when she returned to her parents' home.
But she has no money.
Zhang Wenying is rich, but that old hag Zhang Wenying holds onto her money and won't give it to anyone. What can she do?
My mother called again today, saying she wasn't feeling well.
Having no other choice, He Caifeng had Li Wenhai borrow a car from his workplace, and the two of them took leave in the afternoon to return to the village.
Fortunately, the village is not far from Haishi, only a little over two hours away.
As soon as she arrived home, He's mother came out to greet her, took He Caifeng's hand and sighed, "Caifeng, you're finally back."
"Your father's back has been hurting so badly these past two days that he can't get out of bed, and you and Wenhai haven't been taking care of us. How are we old folks supposed to survive!"
Upon hearing this, He Caifeng's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly said, "Mom, what are you saying?"
When did we say we wouldn't care about you anymore?
"It's all that old hag Zhang Wenying's fault. She insists that the courtyard is hers, and if we don't return it, she'll cause trouble at our workplace. I have no choice but to accept it."
Upon hearing this, He's mother burst into tears: "Wenhai, don't think I'm nagging."
Your father-in-law's health isn't good either, and the family has a heavy burden. My wife and I will have to rely on you from now on, so please don't look down on us.
Li Wenhai stood to the side, forcing a smile: "Mom, what are you saying?"
No matter how difficult things get for Caifeng and me, we will never abandon you and Dad.
Don't worry, once I've recovered a bit, I'll definitely find a way to properly treat Dad's back problem.
He Caifeng felt very sorry for her parents when she saw them like this.
"Mom, don't worry."
"If Wenhai dares to abandon you, I'll divorce him!"
He Caifeng spoke with absolute certainty.
Hearing this, Mother He finally felt a little relieved. Wiping away her tears, she said, "With your words, I can rest assured."
"Please come in and sit down. I'll get you some water."
Li Wenhai glanced at He Caifeng and said, "Mom, Caifeng's parents are my parents too. I will never look down on you."
Don't worry, a son-in-law is like half a son, and I will definitely take care of you for the rest of my life.
Mother He wiped away her tears and nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay, Mom believes you."
You are both good children, and Mom remembers it all.
You are the best son-in-law in the world. Your father and I are counting on you for the future.
Li Wenhai became somewhat smug from the praise.
See, it's his parents-in-law who know how to cherish him.
"Don't worry, Mother-in-law, I'll take care of everything."
Li Wenhai was more in tune with what his mother-in-law said.
Unlike his mother, who treats him like an enemy, always hitting or scolding him without giving him any face.
"Cough cough cough..."
At this moment, Mr. He coughed violently a few times.
Mrs. He quickly went over and patted Mr. He on the back.
"Old man, why is your old problem acting up again?"
I told you back in the city that you need to rest more.
But you insisted on making milk and changing the baby's diaper at night, and now your back hurts and your cough has flared up.
Mr. He quickly waved his hand: "Old woman, don't say that, it's nothing serious, it's an old ailment, it'll be fine in a little while."
Mother He's eyes widened.
"Is it still okay? Listen to your cough, it sounds like a bellows."
Your cough keeps the whole family up at night, and I suffer through the night with you.
As she spoke, He's mother's eyes reddened.
Upon hearing this, Li Wenhai felt a little guilty.
My father-in-law is so focused on taking care of my child that he doesn't even care about his own health.
"Dad, why don't you go to the hospital and get some medicine if you're not feeling well?"
"What medicine should I take?"
"We farmers can just tough it out if we have a minor ailment; why spend that money?"
Mr. He had an honest, kind, and understanding appearance.
He Caifeng didn't say anything, just watched her parents perform with a dark expression.
How come she didn't know her father had a bad back and a cough?
Mother He looked troubled.
"I also want to take your dad to the hospital for a checkup."
But we...where would we get the money to see a doctor?
We country folk rarely see a few big cats all year round. We're already lucky if we can fill our stomachs when we get home, how could we dare to go to the hospital...?
