Chapter 700 After her husband's unexpected death (2)
Seeing that there was no response, Xu Ying gritted her teeth and said, "If you really don't want me to contact my grandparents, then I won't contact them."
Xu Jinhuan snorted coldly: "You said the same thing last time, but did you follow through?"
Xu Ying bit her lip and said, "I am... They came to the school to find me, I can't just not see them!"
"Okay, you're the kindest. You'll have to support yourself from now on."
After saying this in a sarcastic tone, Xu Jinhuan hung up the phone.
Then, without hesitation, he blocked Xu Ying and did something else to make it impossible for Xu Ying and her parents to contact him.
Xu Ying stared at the phone that had been hung up, momentarily stunned. She was always the one who hung up first.
"Xu Ying, what are you doing? Class is about to start." Her roommate saw her from a short distance away.
Xu Ying could only go to class.
Over the weekend, she still went to visit Mr. and Mrs. Song, bringing a box of milk and a bag of fruit.
"Yingying's here, come in quickly," Song's mother greeted her with a smile.
Song Rong was also there, and she was very enthusiastic when she saw Xu Ying.
Let her sit next to me.
Xu Ying sat down somewhat stiffly.
"aunt."
Song Rong sighed and said, "It's been a few days, and Yingying has become more and more beautiful. I wonder what magic potion she's taken."
Xu Ying felt completely relieved after being praised by her.
After saying a few nice words, Song Rong revealed her purpose.
“Yingying, come visit your aunt when you have time. Seeing you reminds me of your dad. I like you so much.”
"It's because your mother is too cruel, otherwise I wouldn't have gone so many years without seeing you."
Even at this moment, she didn't forget to sow discord between Xu Jinhuan and Xu Jinhuan.
Xu Ying recalled her mother's heartless words and, for the first time, did not refute them.
Seeing this, Song Rong's eyes flickered, and she took Xu Ying's hand and said, "You're too thin. When you come to your aunt's house next time, your aunt will help you get some nutrition."
Xu Ying was a little embarrassed: "I'm not thin, I'm much fatter than my roommate."
"No way, don't follow their example. It's not good for girls to be too thin." Song Rong said with concern, but her eyes were very cold.
But Xu Ying, who was looking down, didn't see it. She only felt that her aunt and grandparents were not like what her mother had said.
They loved her too.
There might have been a reason back then...
She convinced herself.
So when her mother asked her to come to the kitchen to see her cooking skills, she didn't object.
They used all their skills to prepare a huge meal.
Song Rong praised the food as she ate it.
Song's mother looked at Xu Ying with a pained expression, saying that she had suffered a lot in the past, otherwise she wouldn't have such good skills.
Xu Ying was deeply moved.
When I was little, I lived at my maternal grandmother's house, and she always made me do this and that.
How old was she back then?
When I told my mom, she didn't mind and even told me to be more sensible.
Seeing her like this, Song Rong felt that she was stupid, and at the same time she was very glad that she had persuaded her parents to kick Xu Jinhuan and her out of the house.
Otherwise, how could we have achieved such a good result?
He got a beautiful girl for free without spending a penny.
Later, when she gets a job, we can ask her for money; when she gets married, we can ask her for a dowry; we can even shift the burden of taking care of Song's parents onto her.
Everyone enjoyed the meal very much.
On her way home, Xu Ying felt unwell.
The class monitor sent a message in the class group asking for the class fee to be paid.
One hundred yuan.
For her in the past, it was just a matter of asking her mother for help.
But now her mother has blocked her.
I also bought milk and fruit today, which cost me sixty yuan.
She only has a little over a hundred yuan left.
She procrastinated and didn't hand it in until she was called on.
She just paid.
Looking at the twenty yuan in her account, she kept sighing.
On the third day, the twenty yuan was all gone.
On the fourth day, after morning classes ended, her roommate noticed she wasn't moving and asked, "Xu Ying, aren't you going to the cafeteria for lunch?"
Xu Ying was too embarrassed to say that she had no money. She clutched her rumbling stomach and said, "I'm not eating lunch today. I'm on a diet."
My roommate said "Oh" and left.
In a short while, Xu Ying was the only one left in the classroom.
Xu Ying didn't eat in the afternoon either. She couldn't stand it anymore in the evening and wanted to order takeout. She pursed her lips and looked at her roommates: "Can you lend me some money?"
She said with a hint of complaint, "I don't know what's wrong with my mom, she hasn't transferred my living expenses yet."
One of her roommates, Qi Xin, suddenly realized: "Then you won't have money for lunch?"
She even felt guilty about whether she had eaten too much.
Xu Ying's face looked a little pale, but she still nodded and forced herself to ask, "So, can you lend me some money?"
"Sure, sure." Qi Xin nodded readily, then hesitated for a moment, "But I don't have much money left, I can only lend you two hundred at most."
"Thank you," Xu Ying said gratefully.
Qi Xin quickly transferred the money to her.
After transferring the money, he added, "Remember to pay me back when you receive your living expenses."
Xu Ying: "...Hmm."
Xu Ying cut back on her food and clothing for a few more days, and finally the weekend arrived. This time, she did not go to Song's parents' house, nor did she go to Song Rong's house.
Instead, she went back to her own home. She was attending university in the same province, which wasn't exactly close to home, but it wasn't far either.
When she arrived at her doorstep, she hesitated for a moment. What if her mother was still angry with her?
"Yingying, why are you back?"
It's Aunt Wang from across the street.
"Aunt Wang," Xu Ying called out, "I miss my mom, so I came back to visit."
Aunt Wang's expression was a little strange.
Xu Ying realized something was wrong, pursed her lips, and asked, "What's wrong?"
Aunt Wang said, "Didn't you know your mother sold this house?"
Xu Ying was shocked.
Her eyes widened: "When did this happen?"
"Just a few days ago," Aunt Wang said.
"Do you know where she is now?" Xu Ying asked anxiously.
Aunt Wang laughed: "If you, as her daughter, don't know, how could I, an outsider, possibly know? Why don't you call her and ask?"
"Your mom too, why didn't she tell you?"
Xu Ying: "..."
Her mom hasn't removed her from the blacklist yet!
However, she can call her maternal grandparents; they will definitely know.
Thinking this, Xu Ying went downstairs to make a phone call, but she couldn't get through for a long time.
Xu Ying's expression grew even more unpleasant; she gripped her phone tightly, looking somewhat uneasy.
Did her mother tell her maternal grandparents about her contact with them?
Her maternal grandparents disliked her paternal grandparents the most.
Xu Ying thought for a moment, then went to the clothing store where her mother worked to inquire.
"Your mom? Your mom quit her job a few days ago, didn't you know?" Her mom's colleague looked at her with surprise.
Xu Ying fled in panic, getting angrier the more she thought about it. How could her mother do this?
Xu Ying finally visited Song's parents' house again, this time empty-handed.
The expression on Song's mother's face, who was reaching out to take the item, froze.
This child has absolutely no manners.
"Who's here?" Song's father's voice came from inside the house.
Song's mother quickly composed herself and said, "It's Yingying here, old man. Quickly turn on the air conditioner so the child can cool off."
After saying that, she turned to Xu Ying and said, "Air conditioning uses too much electricity, your grandfather and I can't bear to turn it on."
If you don't want to give them gifts, surely you can at least pay for their electricity!
As she spoke, she looked at Xu Ying with expectant eyes.
"I……"
Xu Ying instinctively wanted to say, "I'll pay your electricity bill."
But as soon as I opened my mouth, I realized that I not only had no money, but I also owed my roommate money.
She came this time specifically to ask Mr. and Mrs. Song for money.
Song's mother waited for a long time, but Xu Ying didn't say the rest of her sentence.
So, with a slightly displeased expression, he said, "Come in first!"
As for the air conditioning, of course it wasn't turned on.
