Chapter 7: Dad's Hospitalization
"Sister, going to the county town requires taking a bus, do you have the fare? What are you going to the county town for?" Tianlu chased after her.
"Bus fare!" The woman in front, Tian Yuan, stopped in her tracks. Ah yes, bus fare! She had forgotten about that. To get to the county town, she would have to take a bus. And this Houkeng Village where she was currently living was still some distance from the county town!
"How can we go if there's no car fare?" Tianlu asked.
Parents' house must be locked, even if it's not locked, they may not have the bus fare in their room. It costs 80 cents to take a bus from the village entrance to the county town.
"Sister, must you go to the county town? Are you worried about Father? Mom, Second Uncle and Grandfather have gone, haven't they?" Tian Lu said, "Mom told us to wait at home."
Tian Lu was persuading Tian Yuan, but Tian Yuan didn't listen to a single word and was thinking about who she should borrow money from first.
At that time, the family was still struggling to make ends meet. The whole family had not yet split up and no one had any private money in their hands. All the money they earned was handed over to Grandma's hands.
As for this grandma, Tianyuan didn't like her one bit. She was very biased and this grandma wasn't even her real grandma. Tianyuan's real grandma had passed away not long after giving birth to her dad.
Later, Grandpa married a widow from the neighboring village. The widow brought with her a son and daughter, who are now Tian Huan's second uncle Tian Gui and aunt Tian Xiangxiang. After they got married, they had another son, Tian Huan's third uncle Tian Xiang.
As for the stepmother, she really has a stepmother's nature. On the surface, Tian Biao seems very good, but in reality, she is biased towards her own children and the youngest son, Tian Xiang.
As soon as she mentions her own family, Tian Yuan feels a toothache. Her second uncle and aunt are the true successors of her late grandmother. As soon as they open their mouths, the tone of their speech makes people want to find cotton balls to stuff into their ears. The content of their words is even more likely to make Tian Yuan wish she were deaf at times.
Second Uncle Tian Gui married a wife named Zhao Qiuxiang, who was one year older than him. She was very calculating and was like an abacus. In the whole family, if anyone liked Tian Huan, it would probably be Third Uncle, Third Aunt, and Grandfather.
When San Shu was born, Tian Biao's father was already seven years old. In other words, this elder brother had taken care of Tian Xiang since he was a child. The relationship between Tian Xiang and Tian Biao is not bad, and Tian Yu's third aunt is also a nice girl to talk to.
Tian Wei thought for a moment, perhaps she could go find San Shu to borrow some money. San Shu and San Shu's husband had just gotten married, so they should have some dowry with them and a bit of cash on hand. San Shu was an easygoing person, so she should be willing to lend it.
Tian Wan thought of someone who could lend her money and immediately ran towards Third Uncle and Third Aunt's house.
At that time, the Tian family lived in their ancestral home. The house was not only inhabited by Tian Yu's family but also her grandfather's brothers and children. It was a large wooden house typical of southern China.
"Hey! Sister, where are you going?" Tianlu followed closely behind her as she ran.
"Third Uncle, Third Aunt!" Tian Yuan called out at the door of Tian Xiang's room. Sun Qin responded from inside, but she was still sleeping in her room, being very sleepy lately.
"Come on in, Yuyan."
"Aunt San, sorry to disturb you!" Tian Yuan apologized, having woken up Aunt San who was pregnant. If Old Madam found out, she would definitely scold her.
"It's okay, come in. Oh, LuLu is also here, all of you come in. My third uncle went out early, I just get sleepy during this time." SunQin explained, "You're looking for me with something? Your tone earlier seemed like it was an urgent matter."
