At this moment, Jiang Feng thought of something and asked curiously, “That’s right. Second Uncle, how did you know that Little Sister is at this hospital? And where’s Second Aunt?”
“Do you remember your Uncle Bai Yuan? He was the one who told me about it. He’s been very busy recently so he couldn’t come. He also said he wanted to give you money,” Jiang Feng’s second uncle said, “He’s coming to visit soon; he’ll arrive in a while. Your second aunt is in the neighboring city. I was thinking of returning to the city after bringing the money to you.”
‘He wanted to give me money?’ Jiang Feng sneered inwardly. If his second uncle did not mention it, he would have forgotten about it. Previously, when he had posted saying that he had lost all his money after investing in Bitcoin and was in urgent need of money to save his sister, Bai Yuan had been the fiercest in scolding him. Bai Yuan even scolded all 18 generations of the Jiang family’s ancestors.
Bai Yuan had really shown his true colors when Jiang Feng was down. Now that he knew the bankruptcy was fake, he wanted to use a little money to obtain much more money.
Jiang Feng sneered. ‘He’s really smart. He even dared to use Second Uncle…’
Speaking of the devil, before Jiang Feng could reply, a man with a white beard came in. Behind him was a group of relatives who wore ingratiating smiles on their faces. All of them carried fruit baskets and all sorts of tonics.
In less than half a minute, the room was crowded.
“I haven’t seen all of you in a while. I didn’t disturb you, did I?” a middle-aged woman said. She stepped forward and held Yu Xiumei’s hand affectionately.
The others were unwilling to be outdone. They stepped forward and began to show their concern.
“How are Little Yu’s legs? Jianzhong, are you feeling better?”
“I was in the wrong before. I didn’t mean to ignore all of you. I’m no better than beasts,” someone said as he slapped himself. However, the strength he used was negligible.
“Old Jiang, do you still need our help? We’ll definitely do our best to help you!”
Meanwhile, Jiang Feng’s second uncle looked at Bai Yuan and said, “Bai Yuan, you’re here.”
Bai Yuan nodded and said warmly, “That’s right. I didn’t expect you to arrive before me. I thought we’d arrive at the same time.” Then, he turned to Jiang Feng and said, “Little Feng, I’ll send you some money for Little Yu’s medical fees. Do you need more? I can help pay for it first.”
“No need. I don’t want to owe you anything,” Jiang Feng said, annoyed. These people were worse than flies and difficult to get rid of.
Seeing that he was not making any progress with Jiang Feng, Bai Yuan said to Yu Xiumei, “Sister-in-law, how’s Little Yu’s condition now? Is she alright?”
At the same time, Jiang Jianzhong had a headache when he saw the group of relatives in the room.
‘Why did these people suddenly appear? Did they really know that Little Feng isn’t bankrupt?’
Yu Xiumei forced a smile on her face and said, “She’s fine. Little Feng is very filial. He’s arranged everything for his father and sister.”
Jiang Feng’s expression was indifferent. He did not bother to be polite to these people who were desperate for his money. They could not find his new house so they came to the hospital. He wanted to see what kind of tricks these people were going to play next.
Bai Yuan pretended to sigh in relief as he nodded. Then, he said, “It seems like there’s no use for the money I prepared. Little Yu, what do you want to eat? Uncle Bai Yuan will buy it for you!”
Little Yu rolled her eyes. She said bluntly, “Old fox, stop pretending. You don’t have any good intentions.”
“Child, I’m your uncle. Why are you speaking so rudely? Did someone bully you? Tell me, and I’ll help you vent your anger!”
Little Yu felt speechless
‘Does he not understand human language? For money, he’s really shameless! This is ridiculous!’
Meanwhile, Jiang Feng’s second uncle also saw the true colors of this group of relatives. He stepped forward and waved his hand as he said, “Third Brother, Eighth Brother, Second Aunt, and Seventh Sister, Little Yu’s legs are not completely healed. She needs to rest. You should visit another time.”
‘Second Uncle…’ Jiang Feng’s heart moved again as memories surfaced in his mind. When he was young, his second uncle was like that as well. His second uncle had always cared the most about him and his sister. Now that he had the ability, he was determined to repay his second uncle. He wanted his second uncle to live happily in his old age like his parents.
After listening to his second brother, Jiang Jianzhong became smarter. He said, “Little Yu wants to rest. All of you should leave first and visit another time.”
“This…”
The relatives were unable to react for a moment. They were only here for a few minutes but were already asked to leave. After a brief moment, they finally reacted.
“Old Jiang, where are you staying now? Why is the old house empty? We can’t visit an empty house…”
“Are you living on the streets now? Old Jiang, you can stay at my house if you have nowhere to stay! However, how can you have no place to live? Old Jiang, you must be living very well now, right?”
“When are you going to invite us to have a look at your new house? Old Jiang, you really treat us like outsiders. How can you not tell us about the fake bankruptcy? You made us worry for nothing.”
Little Yu rolled her eyes. She said loudly, clearly indignant, “All of you ingrates, get lost! Where we live now has nothing to do with you!”
Little Yu was extremely irritated when she was these people pretending to be worried. She had clearly seen their viciousness previously. Now that those relatives knew they were not bankrupt, they came back like a swarm of flies.
“Child, how can you be so rude? Old Jiang, you have to discipline her properly. How can she speak to her elders like that?”
“That’s right, Old Jiang. This child has to be beaten. Otherwise, she’ll only become more rebellious. She’s already so rude now. I can’t imagine how much worse it would be in the future!”
“I think you should send her to a boarding school. The teachers are first-class and can help you educate her. I have a few recommendations. Do you want me to introduce them to you?”
Jiang Jianzhong was furious. He did not care much about what people said about him, but he could tolerate others speaking about his daughter in such a manner. He said coldly, “Enough. My child has nothing to do with any of you. She’s very good. Your words are too much.”
Yu Xiumei was equally furious. Her face and her neck were red as she said, “My Little Yu has always been very good. You don’t need to care about her. Just take good care of yourself.”
“My little sister needs to rest. Please hurry up and leave,” Jiang Feng said indifferently as he opened the door.
Bai Yuan saw that the situation was not right so he hurriedly said, “Old Jiang, don’t be angry. I was just joking. I’ll leave first. Little Yu, take good care of yourself.”
Seeing this, the other relatives followed Bai Yuan’s lead.
“Little Yu, I only said those words because I care about you. Child, don’t be so petty. When you were young, I used to bring you out to play.”
Jiang Feng’s second uncle said with a frown, “Alright, alright, leave now. When Little Yu feels better, you visit her.”
“Second Brother, you’re overstepping your boundary. This doesn’t seem to have anything to do with you,” someone said unhappily.
“Old Jiang and the others have said that we’re disturbing Little Yu’s rest. It includes you as well. What are you pretending for?”
“You should leave with us. Little Yu needs to rest after all.”
“Little Yu is very close to her second uncle. How can we compare to him? Let’s leave first. The most important thing is for Little Yu to rest,” Bai Yuan said. At the same time, he had other thoughts on his mind. They could not stay at the ward nor could they go to the Jiang family house now. However, as long as they persisted, it was only a matter of time before they succeeded.
