Chapter 328 - "Call the cops. We must call the cops now." (1)
It was almost final examination season for JingJing. Once the final examinations were over, she would be in second grade when school started up again.
Tianbao’s case was a little different. Kindergarten had no winter or summer vacations. He had paid for the year and could just take time off whenever. It was much more flexible.
Feng Zeyu remembered that Shu Yan had mentioned that she wanted to travel during summer vacation and had been thinking about where to go. He thought about travelling overseas but Shu Yan wanted to wait till Tianbao was older for that. If they were to travel domestically, he was thinking about visiting the grassland.
“I had stayed there for two years in the past and am very familiar with it. I also know how to ride horses and can take you out for fun. People there are very passionate and there are also a lot of activities.
Shu Yan had the ocean in mind in the past but the grassland would work as well. She had considered that in the past but worried that it wasn’t too safe just yet. But if Feng Zeyu suggested it, then it must be alright. As such, they could go to the grassland in July and the ocean in August.
When the two children returned home from school, Shu Yan said to them, “We might change up our itinerary a little. We will head to the grassland first and go see the ocean in August. What do you think?”
“We are going to the grassland this month then to see the ocean in August?” Both JingJing and Tianbao looked at Shu Yan happily. As far as the children were concerned, they were excited about both places.
“Yes, but it’s not safe just the three of us, so Uncle Fang will be joining us.” Shu Yan carefully observed the children as she said that.
“Oh yay! We wouldn’t have to worry about baddies if we have Uncle Fang with us.”
JingJing did not object this time. She could still remember how worried her mother was on their trip to City Nan from City Xi. In fact, her mother was too worried to even sleep. She just held tightly onto her and her brother. Perhaps her mother would not be scared if they have Uncle Fang with them.
JingJing had to return to school for one last day the next day. Then, with some packing, the earliest time that they would take off would be the 5th.
After she had bathed, Shu Yan sat in the living room and applied her facemask. She glanced over at the phone from time to time. When it rang, her lips curved upward and she sat up immediately.
“Yanyan, it’s me.”
“Third Brother?” Shu Yan was a bit surprised when she heard the voice of Shu Jianyang. He rarely called her up at night. He usually in the day time if he had something to talk to her about. “What’s the matter?”
“Your mom is sick. She said her stomach hurt. I helped put her in City Xi #1 Hospital. They didn’t find anything wrong with her but she said she was still hurting. She insisted that she had some sort of terminal illness and wanted to go have herself treated at capital city. She cried for me to get in touch with you. I didn’t call you until I got home.” Shu Jianyang rubbed his temples. He felt bad for his cousin for having parents like them.
“Is she really sick or is she faking it?” Why did it all sound so suspicious?
“It didn’t look like she was faking it. She really looked like she was hurting and had lost a lot of weight since the last time I saw her. I would not otherwise have called you.” Shu Jianyang frowned. “But the doctors were not able to find anything wrong with her. Event he doctors looked worried when they saw your mom and also agreed to have her get checked out by a bigger hospital at the capital city.”
In short, she was sick for real but they didn’t know what it was.
“Then go and get herself checked out. Were her sons just there for decoration purposes? Why did she have to call me?” If she was truly ill and her three sons couldn’t afford her treatment, Shu Yan would for sure pay for it. Point was, they didn’t even know what was wrong with her but she almost wanted her over. Whatever was that for? Whenever something good came their way, they would immediately think about their sons. Whenever issues arose, they would think about the daughter that they had sold off a long time ago?
Shu Yan wasn’t worried about money. Truthfully, 100,000 ~ 200,000 yuan was not a lot to her right now. It was her parents’ attitude that irked her.
