Chapter 186: That’s How I Hate You
Sun Lijuan was full of hatred in her heart, thinking, I don’t believe it, can you really get married? There are still two years left!
But right now, they weren’t a match. The old man was cursing and throwing everything in this direction—broken bricks, tiles, even icicles. If any of that hit someone, it would be painfully lethal, so Zhao Xiuxia and Sun Lijuan hurried away.
Upon seeing them leave, Su Minjian didn’t go after them; after all, this was a family matter and not something he could involve himself in.
On the way back, Zhao Xiuxia was cursing incessantly. She had been struggling a lot just now, her whole body aching, and another plan to get money had failed again.
"What should we do now! We didn’t get a cent!"
Sun Lijuan gritted her teeth: "It’s all right. I have just one year left until graduation. No matter what, Gu Junming said he would help arrange a job. Anyway, I’ll make it through this year, and once I have a job, everything will be different. If it doesn’t work out, we’ll borrow some money. All of this should be accounted on their heads."
"Fine!" Zhao Xiuxia was also full of hate: "Let that little slut enjoy herself for another year!"
When they got home, it didn’t seem like much at first, but by the evening something was wrong. Zhao Xiuxia felt intense pain in her back and stomach. She lifted her clothes to check and saw a bruise under her ribcage. Cursing once more, during those days there was no ultrasound to check such things, so she could only endure. She thought she might see a herbalist for some medicine.
Who knew that the next morning she felt something below, and upon going to the toilet, found out her period had come. At her age, she was nearly menopausal, but it wasn’t impossible, coming only occasionally every few months, so she didn’t think much and just used some paper. Who would have thought this time it would last a whole month and a half, continuously.
But during that time Sun Lijuan was at school, and no one at home knew, and Zhao Xiuxia didn’t take much care of it, haphazardly using herbal remedies. But nothing could stop the bleeding, and it continued for two months before it finally eased. By then, she felt no pain and had long forgotten about it, not knowing that it had left behind a root for a future ailment.
