Hearing Liu Xue's words, Zhou Hui felt bitter in his heart, not knowing what to say.

At this moment, he suddenly heard a loud voice of a woman coming from outside the door.

"Hey, let me ask, is Zhou Ming in this ward?"

"Yeah, you're looking for Zhou Ming? Who are you?" Auntie Chun's voice came from the side.

"I'm his brother's wife."

"Oh," Auntie Chun nodded. "Then you can go in, the bed in the back is it."

When Zhou Hui heard this, he knew who it was. Without a doubt, it was his wife, Wang Peach Blossom.

However, when Sun Xiumei heard the voice, her expression changed.

"Little Hui, it's noon. Go buy me some food, I'm hungry."

Sun Xiumei was very anxious. She seemed to be driving Zhou Hui away, wanting him to leave as soon as possible.

Of course, Zhou Hui knew the reason. He held Sun Xiumei's hand and said, "Mom, don't worry."

Just as he finished speaking, he saw a middle-aged woman with dark skin, wearing a pink short-sleeved shirt and black pants, her hair tied up.

When she saw Zhou Hui and Sun Xiumei, her eyes lit up, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth as her loud voice rang out.

"Sister-in-law Xiumei, you made it easy for me to find you!" "Say it, why didn't you tell me the address clearly? It's better if I ask our village's Da Cui before I know."

Da Cui was the most well-connected person in Sun Xiumei's entire village. They often chatted together over tea and meals. If it weren't for the accident, Zhou Ming wouldn't have stayed in the hospital all day.

Wang Taohua was holding a plastic bag with only a few cucumbers, tomatoes, and some wild peaches in it.

It really looked like a joke.

"Ya, Little Hui is also here. Look, I don't know what I'm buying, so I brought some fruits and vegetables over. I was thinking that my big brother loves eating cucumbers."

Sun Xiumei nodded and did not like to talk to her.

Wang Peach Blossom squatted down. He wanted to put it on the bedside table, but he didn't expect that the moment he opened it, it would be filled with beautifully packaged fruits.

"Aiyo, sister-in-law! What is this? I've never seen it before. Let me taste it for you!" After she finished speaking, she took out a large mango.

Zhou Hui knew why Sun Xiumei didn't care about him. Wang Peach Blossom was the village's favorite. When passing by other people's vegetable patch, he would have to take two green onions with him.

In the past few years, he had taken advantage of her family. However, when her father had fallen ill and asked for money from her family, he had not given them a single cent and had even drawn a clear line between them.

He definitely had come for a request.

Wang Taohua held the mango, not knowing how to eat it. He licked his face and asked, "Little Hui, how did you eat it?"

Zhou Hui naturally ignored her, but Wang Peach Blossom was still his senior.

"Eat with your mouth!" He coldly tossed down those words.

"Look at what you're saying, child," Wang Peach Blossom glared at him and bit him.

"Aiya, why is it so astringent, what is this thing!?" "Forget it, I'll just take it home and give it to your second uncle to eat!" After Wang Taohua finished speaking, he put it into his pocket.

When Sun Xiumei saw it, her face turned dark.

"Peach Blossom, what are you doing here?"

Wang Taohua chuckled.

"I was just looking at you, big brother."

"Then you see it, go!"

"Sister-in-law, don't be like this. Back then, it was also because our family was poor. Otherwise, why would this blood brother not even lend you the money to see a doctor? We were still family then!"

Sun Xiumei's heart was kind to begin with, but when she heard that, her heart softened.

He didn't come to the Three Treasures Palace for no reason. Zhou Hui had already guessed that Wang Peach Blossom must have come because of something.

He exchanged a glance with Sun Xiumei.

Sun Xiumei sighed, "Tell me, what are you doing here?"

Wang Peach Blossom didn't speak directly and instead walked over to Zhou Hui's side.

"Aiyo, this child Hui's clothes are really not bad. It looks good on the outside, but Little Hui definitely earns a lot from working in this big city. Otherwise, why would he wear such good clothes?"

These words confused both Zhou Hui and Sun Xiumei.

"What are you trying to say?"

Wang Taohua twisted her butt and sat on the sickbed next to Sun Xiumei.

"Sister-in-law, our Dazhu has taken a fancy to a girl from the neighboring village. I was thinking about letting them marry."

Hearing this, Sun Xiumei's face relaxed a little. "That's a good thing."

"But," Wang Peach Blossom looked troubled. "But this lady wants fifty thousand yuan for the betrothal gift. When we get married, we still have to live in the city. We don't have that kind of money nor do we have a house."

Hearing this, Zhou Hui understood.

So this was the reason!

Sun Xiumei's expression changed as well. "Peach Blossom, we don't have any money. Your brother is still sick!"

Wang Taohua smiled and said tentatively, "Sister-in-law, I've already asked about it. Big brother's illness will definitely not be cured, why don't you lend me the money for Big Brother's medical treatment and I'll let Dazhu get married first."

When Zhou Hui heard that, he felt a burst of anger in his heart. Sun Xiumei quickly held his hand and stopped him.

Sun Xiumei stood up and pointed at the door, "You, get out!"

However, when Wang Peach Blossom heard that, she became unhappy.

"Sister-in-law, what are you doing? I've already made plans for you. In the future, if Big Bro has any accidents, Little Hui will be in the city, and I'll support you!"

Zhou Hui coldly laughed after hearing this, "Aunt, you don't need to care about this. I'll support my mom and my dad will definitely treat it!"

Zhou Hui gritted his teeth, blue veins popping out from his head, but the person in front of him was his senior.

Sun Xiumei was also very angry.

"Abacus is so good. In order to suck out all the blood in our family, he even sacrificed your brother's life."

As she spoke, she pushed the peach blossom out of the door.

The others were all watching, but since it was a family matter, it wasn't appropriate for anyone to interfere. With a sigh, they left.

"Sister-in-law, what are you doing? Don't think that I don't know. You must have hidden some money. Otherwise, how could you afford such a good fruit?"

Sun Xiumei pushed her out of the door and closed it behind her.

Wang Peach Blossom shouted and cursed for a while until the doctor stopped her, then she left with a groan.

After she left, Sun Xiumei sat by the bed and shed tears.

Zhou Hui went over to comfort Sun Xiumei, and also made up his mind that he would definitely let his parents live a good life.

Back then, it was really too difficult at home. In order to treat Zhou Ming's illness, he could not even keep the pot boiling.

After a while, Sun Xiumei looked up as if she had thought of something.

"Little Hui, your aunt has been chased away by us. She definitely won't let this go easily. We still owe her money!"
