Chapter 758: Your wife doesn’t want you anymore?
In the past two days, Wang Dehou has been annoyed by this old man.
But even if Wang Dehou ignored him, he would still talk non-stop, either praising his son's ability, or talking about how filial his son-in-law was, or how lively his grandson was.
His words and actions revealed that he was living a very good and comfortable life.
Wang Dehou was already unhappy with his son Wang Tao because of the restaurant business, and he felt even more uncomfortable when he heard the old man showing off his children.
"Eat it. My son brought a dozen. It's okay to give you one."
"Oh, why are these apples so expensive? If it were me, I wouldn't be willing to buy them, but this child is so filial that I can't stop him. He insists on buying them, even if I scold him, he won't listen."
The old man said a lot of things, and seeing that Wang Dehou didn't react, he simply got out of bed and walked over, holding up his arm that was still tied with a rope, and sat down on Wang Dehou's bed.
Wang Dehou was shocked. If she sat on his lap, she would be in trouble.
"Don't look so gloomy. Have a bite. It's already washed clean." The old man picked up the apple on the bed and stuffed it into Wang Dehou's hand.
Wang Dehou looked at him with a headache and put the apple next to the pillow.
There is no one around me, I don’t dare to drink water or eat apples!
Seeing that Wang Dehou finally turned his face towards him, the old man immediately grinned.
"Well, it's okay if your son doesn't come, but why didn't your wife come either?"
"What do you mean? I don't want you anymore?"
"Don't think I'm kidding. There was a guy in our village who broke his leg. His wife ran away the next day and went back to her parents' home. It seems she ran off with some wild man."
"Well, if you ask me, we men should work but we should also pay attention to safety, otherwise..."
"roll roll roll!"
The old man was interrupted impatiently by Wang Dehou before he could finish his words.
What does it mean that the wife ran away with a strange man?
It's bad enough that this guy is a big talker, but he can't even spit out ivory from a dog's mouth.
His wife clearly went to the city to borrow money.
The old man, despite being scolded, was not angry. He just smiled and glanced at the entire ward before continuing, "Your condition is the worst in our ward. You can't be cured in town. Let's go to the city as soon as possible."
"Otherwise, if we delay any longer, I'm afraid my leg will be amputated."
Wang Dehou gave him a displeased look before saying, "My son is busy with the store, and my wife is in the city borrowing money from relatives."
"busy?"
The old man opened up his mouth again, frowned, and said, "You have to be busy at certain times. My legs are not as good as the work in the shop?"
"What's so important about a store? If you don't know, you might think you can make a few hundred dollars a month!"
"By the way, what kind of store does your son run? He needs tickets for food and clothes now. Business in the store must be bad."
"Oh, my son is the best. He comes to the hospital to accompany me every day. If I were to ask you, raising a son to support you in your old age is the best way to raise a son like me..."
"You'd better get out of here!"
Wang Dehou cursed angrily. He didn't know whether the old man did it intentionally, deliberately, or on purpose. He kept talking about how capable and filial his children were.
This is what Wang Dehou least wants to hear now, but this guy always says this.
This is like poking someone in the lungs.
"Oh, you're not happy to hear it. Did someone bring you food tonight? Do you want to have a fight with me later?"
"People are made of iron and rice is made of steel. We cannot survive without food, especially patients like us. It will take longer for us to recover if we don't eat."
"Old Wang? Old Wang, are you listening?"
"Why don't you like to talk? Are you like this at home? No wonder your wife didn't come this afternoon..."
The old man's mouth was like a Type 99 light machine gun, chattering non-stop.
Wang Dehou was already in a bad mood, and hearing him nagging in his ear, he wanted to jump up and beat him up.
Unfortunately, my calves are not strong enough, so it’s hard for me to even stand up, let alone jump.
"Lao Wang?? Lao Wang, are you asleep? Hey, you're sleeping now, what are you going to do at night? Get up and chat!"
Just as the old man was trying to pull Wang Dehou to wake him up, several figures suddenly walked into the ward.
"Uncle?"
Ok?
A familiar voice was heard, and Wang Dehou, who had been pretending to be asleep, suddenly sat up and looked towards the door.
Wang Xia, Chen Jun?
Wang Dehou was stunned. He didn't expect that his sister and nephew would come to the town hospital to see him.
"Why are you here?"
"Brother, such a big thing happened, why didn't you tell me?" Wang Xia glanced at Wang Dehou with some resentment, and then continued: "If my sister-in-law hadn't come to me, I wouldn't know about this."
"Uncle, your legs must be hurting a lot. What procedures are needed to transfer to another hospital? I'll go and handle it now." Chen Jun put the gifts he bought aside and said.
Wang Dehou didn't say anything, his eyes were attracted by the gifts brought by Chen Jun.
This...what is this for!
Canned food, peach cakes, crisp fruit, fruits, and even a can of malted milk.
Any one of them he picked out was something he usually wouldn't buy, especially the can of malted milk, which was ridiculously expensive. Wang Dehou had only seen it three times in his life.
It is said that this is used by city people to entertain guests.
The old man next to him also noticed these things and his eyes almost popped out.
"No, this is your nephew? Why do I feel like he's more willing to spend money than your own son?"
"Wow, so many things, how much money will it cost!"
"That tin can is malted milk, right? Years ago, I went to visit a relative in the city and had a cup at his house. It was delicious."
"Old Wang, what does your nephew do? Could he be a high-ranking official in the city..."
The old man felt that his own child was filial and outstanding enough, but compared with Lao Wang's nephew, he was far behind.
Forget about anything else, just that can of malted milk is something their family can't afford.
But for Lao Wang's nephew, it was just one of the gifts.
Wang Dehou glanced at the old man and still ignored him, but the depression in his heart was swept away at this moment.
I've been listening to this guy chattering so much that my ears are almost callused. Now I feel relieved.
But after feeling comfortable, Wang Dehou began to feel distressed.
Why waste this money? It’s not easy to make money these days, and life is not easy for people in the city.
Especially Chen Jun's family, the pillar of the family is gone. Even if they have a job in the city, they will definitely have to tighten their belts to make ends meet.
"Xiaoxia, just come if you want. Why spend so much money?" Wang Dehou frowned and said, "These things haven't been touched. Shouldn't the supply and marketing cooperative refund them?"
"Take it back now."
Wang Xia shook her head. "They were all bought by Xiaojun. He also works in the factory now and gets a salary every month."
Seeing this, the woman walked over to Wang Dehou and told him about the Chen family's situation.
Wang Dehou's eyes, which were already wide open, became even wider.
