Chapter 119: Chapter 119: The Groom Ran Away on His Wedding Night 30

"What, taking Tongtong to the hospital? She’s perfectly fine, why go to the hospital? She’s just pretending," Jiang Hongying jumped up, "Look at her, she’s perfectly fine, what’s the fuss? Don’t you know the hospital burns money?"

Shen Tong stood aside, head hanging, the little bit of hope in her heart shattered again.

But this time Wei Menglan didn’t obey, her eyes were red as she said, "Mom, Tongtong’s molars are almost entirely decayed, if we don’t go see it, what will you let her do in the future?"

"She’s only a teenager."

"I’ve already asked, if we had taken her earlier, it wouldn’t have decayed like this, and it wouldn’t cost much," Wei Menglan’s voice carried a sob, filled with regret.

Knowing today’s situation, back then when Sister-in-law, no, it should have been Lv Chen who suggested a checkup at the hospital, she should have taken it seriously. At that time, if they went, Tongtong’s molars might have been saved.

"Anyway, I’m taking Tongtong to the hospital." This time, Wei Menglan was very determined, "If we don’t go now, all her teeth will be ruined."

It’s just her molars now, there’s still time.

"Mom, give me some money," if it weren’t for Jiang Hongying managing the money at home, she wouldn’t have come to ask, she would just take her daughter directly.

Jiang Hongying frowned, "There’s none, where is there any money at home, so many people won’t eat or what?"

"Her teeth are decayed, she must have been secretly eating sweets." She added, "How could eating fewer sweets result in tooth decay?"

Wei Menglan couldn’t believe it, her eyes turned red with anger, "I give you my paycheck every month, and we haven’t been doing business these two years, there must be money left."

Jiang Hongying, uneasy, said, "Isn’t it all saved for your son’s future marriage? I’m doing this for your son’s good, it’s not like I’m going to pocket your money."

"But Tongtong is also your granddaughter!" Wei Menglan’s voice rose, she admitted she also favored her son more.

But given her daughter’s situation now, she still cared.

If it’s not addressed now, what about Tongtong’s future? Would she have to live her life with a mouthful of decayed teeth at such a young age?

Suddenly she saw the path Tongtong would have to take in the future, she didn’t want Tongtong on that path. For some reason, her heart was heavy with sadness.

"Mom, if you don’t give me the money, I’ll take Tongtong next month, and I won’t hand over my paycheck anymore. We’ve been married for years, Tongtong’s already a teenager, it’s high time we split the family."

Jiang Hongying’s voice rose, "What are you saying? How dare you! Are you trying to turn the world upside down, learning from that Lv Chen? Wei Menglan, do you still want to be part of the Shen Family? When Shen the Second comes back, I’ll have him deal with you! If Shen the Second doesn’t want you then, see where you can go."

Wei Menglan fell silent.

Shen Tong’s eyes dimmed too, sure enough, her grandmother used this to threaten her mom, she silently turned and went back to her room to do her homework.

She might have to wait until she grows up, earns money, and goes to the dentist herself.

But by then, her teeth might be almost completely decayed.

A rare guest came to the Lv Family, and Ah Chen was a bit surprised when she saw who it was.

In those ten years at the Shen Family, except on the wedding day, Wei Menglan spoke a lot to her at first, but later she became quiet. There was little interaction with this person.

There was no real enmity between Wei Menglan and the Commissioner, at most they were two women being exploited together, and when they were being devoured, both did so willingly. But as the Shen Family’s situation improved, these feelings were buried deeper.

"Sorry to bother you." Wei Menglan took a deep breath, showing neither pity nor tears, but her eyes were red and uncontrollable.

After ten years of acquaintance, she knew Lv Chen wasn’t very sympathetic.

Even though Lv Chen has sponsored many students, those were selected sponsorships she was willing to make.

Those who tried to morally coerce her ended up being exposed thoroughly, not one left unscathed.

Lv Chen didn’t care about reputation.

If she cared, she wouldn’t have lived at the Shen Family for so many years, enjoying herself. Nor would she have just walked away, or asked for her money back when the third brother returned.

Wei Menglan knew she was a little dark and despicable inside, always hoping for something bad to happen to the other.

But she had to admit, the other was better than anyone.

She was jealous.

But that’s all she could be.

"Is there something you need?" Ah Chen asked.

Today’s Wei Menglan seemed a bit different, looking slightly more agreeable? Who knows what happened at the Shen Family that made this woman, who was being continuously drained, seem slightly awakened? Her eyes even looked brighter.

"Lv Chen, I want to borrow a thousand yuan from you, I’ll pay you back next month with interest." Wei Menglan struggled to say these words, feeling even more ashamed of how many times she wished ill upon Lv Chen in the past.

She had hoped for bad things to happen to her, and now she had to ask for her help. She felt wretched.

"What’s the matter?"

Ah Chen didn’t ask why she couldn’t come up with a thousand yuan, she knew what was going on, Shen Family’s money was in Jiang Hongying’s hands.

Wei Menglan was working at the factory, now making five to six thousand a month.

Wei Menglan controlled her tears and said, "I want to take Tongtong to the hospital for her teeth."

With rough hands covering her face, unwilling to cry in front of Lv Chen, but thinking about her daughter’s fate and all these muddleheaded years, she couldn’t hold back. The tears exposed the worst part of her, shattering her pride.

She couldn’t deceive herself anymore, Lv Chen would never be at a loss.

The other would always be better than anyone.

Ah Chen picked up her bag nearby and took out a thousand yuan, handing it over, "Go ahead."

This thousand yuan was lent to a mother willing to take her daughter to the dentist, regardless of who she was.

"Thank you, thank you so much..." Wei Menglan thanked her hurriedly, her face full of tears, "I’ll pay you back next month, I’ll write up an IOU."

She fished out a pen and notebook, clearly prepared beforehand.

Ah Chen took the IOU, the handwriting was crooked, but every stroke was clear, it was a very standard IOU, quite rare.

That day, Wei Menglan took Shen Tong to the hospital for her teeth.

When they came out of the hospital, both mother and daughter were heavy-hearted.

The teeth couldn’t be saved, they could try saving those not decayed to the roots, but rotten ones needed to be extracted and implants put in, which was expensive. The good news was, only her molars had problems, the other teeth were still fine.

"Mom, forget it, I’ll deal with it when I earn money in the future," Shen Tong said.

Dental treatment was indeed costly.

Wei Menglan wiped her tears, "We need to treat it, the doctor said if we don’t treat it now, it will only get harder in the future; at least some roots can be saved, and some can be filled and still used. If you wait until you grow up, other teeth might be affected."

"Mom can earn money, I’ll stop handing it to your grandma anymore."

"Your dad is also earning money, we’ll save the money next month, and be able to pay for half your treatment."

Shen Tong’s eyes were red, burying her head in tears.

At that moment, she suddenly didn’t resent her mom as much anymore.

How could she not have resented?

Her teeth were indeed decayed from eating sweets, all the good stuff at home went to her brother. When she got older, she picked up bottles at school to sell for money, bought sweets and ate them in secret, sometimes sucking on one before bed. When her teeth started to decay, it was too late to change the habit.

"The Shen family is in chaos," at the dining table, Ding Haiying talked about the Shen Family’s gossip, "I heard it’s because the second daughter-in-law wants to treat her daughter’s teeth, and this month’s salary is no longer handed over. Jiang Hongying didn’t agree, and they even got into a fight."

"Originally, the second daughter-in-law was planning not to let Shen the Second hand over his salary either, and use it to pay for her daughter’s dental treatment. Shen the Second’s attitude is unclear, but Jiang Hongying threatened to commit suicide, so they didn’t agree."

"That little girl is quite pitiful," Ding Haiying sighed, "Luckily, the second daughter-in-law cares enough to spend money on her treatment, otherwise who knows what would’ve happened."

Ah Chen asked, "And then what?"

She didn’t mention Wei Menglan borrowing money.

That person had already come to repay her yesterday, leaving with a light step that made her seem very changed.

"The second daughter-in-law’s stance was very determined, and for now, they’re at an impasse, but the teeth have to be treated anyway," Ding Haiying said.

After she finished, she asked, "Why haven’t we heard anything from Xiao Yan?"

Ah Chen said, "Just because you haven’t heard anything, doesn’t mean there isn’t; he chats with me on video every day."

She doesn’t hurry him to bed, he’d probably video chat all night.

Ding Haiying laughed awkwardly, not understanding these young people, even when they know each other, they revert to online romance?

It was at this moment that Ah Chen’s phone rang, she opened it, and it was a message from Xie Yan: Check out the lively scene. [Video]
