2242. Hope (3)

Zhao Kun tried his best to make his tone calmer.

"Kun, you really don't have to do this anymore. You really can't borrow any more. You should think about your little family, Xiaoyue, and the children you are going to take care of soon." The old woman was on the hospital bed.

, and shook his head stubbornly. The Xiaoyue he said was Zhao Kun's current wife.

"Mom, don't worry. It'll be fine. You have a good rest. I'll find someone to raise some more money. I'm still young and have plenty of strength to work. The money I owe can be paid back soon. As long as you are healthy.

Just be healthy." After Zhao Kun finished speaking, he quickly left the ward.

He was afraid that if he stayed inside for one more second, he wouldn't be able to control himself and would cry.

This tough man who had never frowned even when he was shot or knifed and bled, could not stop the tears from flowing down at this moment.

No matter what, he must collect enough money to save his mother.

Just like this, after more than half an hour, Zhao Kun came to a private house. This area looked like an urban-rural fringe area. The houses had been built for many years, and they were all old red brick houses.

After arriving, I knocked on the door of the house. Soon the door opened and an old man in his sixties came out.

"Xiao Kun, everyone can eat soon. Xiaoyue is cooking bone soup inside now. When it is ready, I will send it to your mother." The old man had a kind face and saw Zhao Kun coming.

I was very happy afterwards and found out that he was Zhao Kun's father-in-law.

"How's your mother doing now? But I'm done with the work I'm doing tonight. I'll go over and see her tomorrow." Seeing Zhao Kun's dejected look, the old man also let out a long sigh.

"Dad, thank you!"

Zhao Kun's father-in-law was very kind to him, even from the beginning. Because he had an ordinary job, he opposed the marriage between him and his wife. Now that his mother is seriously ill and hospitalized, he didn't look down on him because of his current situation.

"Husband is here." At this moment, a slim woman came out of the kitchen.

This woman is still wearing an apron and holding a spoon in her hand. It is obvious that she was cooking in the kitchen just now. When she heard the noise, she ran out quickly. She is Zhao Kun's daughter-in-law and wants to be Wu Xiaoyue.

Now that she is pregnant, she takes time off to stay at home and lives with her parents at her parents' house, so that it is convenient for her parents to take care of her.

After Wu Xiaoyue saw Zhao Kun, her face was filled with a happy smile and she said: "Husband, my food is almost ready. I can send it to my mother in a moment. You wash your hands first and prepare to eat."

Bar."

Looking at his virtuous and gentle daughter-in-law, Zhao Kun's restless, painful, and entangled mood eased a little.

However, I soon felt that I was really ashamed of my wife and the baby that was about to be born.

At this time, another person appeared in the kitchen, a woman in her fifties. When she saw Zhao Kun, she said with a cold face: "Why are you standing here? Hurry up and sit down to eat."

This person was Wu Xiaoyue's mother, who was also Zhao Kun's mother-in-law. No one spoke at the dinner table, and the atmosphere was very dull. Only Wu Xiaoyue kept bringing Zhao Kun some dishes to remind him to eat more.

Such a virtuous and gentle wife made Zhao Kun feel warm in his heart.

After struggling for a long time, he couldn't help but speak. The main reason he came here today was to borrow some money from his father-in-law and mother-in-law, so that he could collect enough money to extend his mother's life.

He has exhausted all the options he can think of now. He can no longer borrow any more money, and he still owes a lot of debt. In order to save his mother's life, he can only bite the bullet and borrow money.

But as soon as he said this, his mother-in-law's expression became even more serious, and she directly put down the bowls and chopsticks in her hands and said.

"Zhao Kun, we have treated you well. When you had no gift money and no house, we married our precious daughter to you. Not many mothers-in-law in the world can be so tolerant, right?"

"It's not that we don't want to help you now, it's mainly that we don't have the ability. Your mother

You know what is going on over there now. He is just using money to continue his life bit by bit. The tens of thousands of dollars in our hands are our coffin book and Xiaoyue's last little support. Now if we

I gave you the money, Xiaoyue will need it in a few months

What should I do if I have a baby? What should I do if I have no money at all? Do you know how much it costs to have a baby now? How much will it cost within a year after Xiaoyue cannot work after the birth? I have no choice, I have to

I want to make sure that my children don’t suffer."

Although the mother-in-law said it in a cold tone, she didn't say it with much malice. She had to think about her daughter.

"What are you talking about?" My father-in-law quickly stopped me.

"Mom..." Wu Xiaoyue also pulled her mother's sleeve.

She looked at her husband sitting next to her distressedly. She remembered how bright and straight his eyes were when she first met him. But now, his eyes were dim and dull, and his whole body was full of energy.

He was very rickety, and seeing this made him feel very distressed.

"Zhao Kun, don't listen to your mother. You can use our savings first." My father-in-law still feels sorry for his son-in-law, and he doesn't want to think about the rift in the originally harmonious family in the future.

Although the mother-in-law snorted coldly, she didn't say anything. She was a typical talkative person. She just hated the iron. She just always felt that her daughter should not marry such a poor man, but there was nothing she could do. Who could do that?

My daughter has chosen it.

At this time, the boulder that had been pressing on Zhao Kun's heart became even heavier, pressing him down and making him unable to breathe.

He had borrowed it from his relatives and friends, but he never came to his father-in-law and mother-in-law to borrow it. He just didn't want to cause trouble to Xiaoyue, but now he really had no choice but to come over.

Although the result was good, this friendship made him more stressed and he felt that he owed his wife and family even more.

No matter what, I must keep my mother alive.

But what should this family do with the pressure this brings? It was originally a poor family, but now his wife is pregnant again and is about to give birth to a child. This lot of pressure is on him, making him feel that it is useless.

.

What a failure. How could a grown man live like this?

A man can't even support a family.

At this time, the mobile phone in his pocket kept vibrating, but he had no intention to answer the call. He just seemed to be unwilling to give up and kept calling. He had no choice but to take out the mobile phone from his pocket.

Until he saw the name of the caller above, his originally dull eyes suddenly brightened.
