Chapter 288 Buying a Car
In the end, Sun Baojun was left alone to accompany Huo Chunyan, while Shen Zhixia and Huo Chenzhou both left the ward.
Huo's mother arrived with her two children. She had been very anxious after hearing about Huo Chunyan's accident, but because of her two children, she couldn't come immediately. She only came over after feeding the children.
Shen Zhixia briefly told Huo's mother about the situation: "Chunyan is fine now. Baojun is with her, and she should wake up tomorrow."
Mrs. Huo breathed a sigh of relief: "As long as she's alright, we can have more children later."
It wasn't that she didn't care about the child in Huo Chunyan's belly; it's just that after such an incident, her first concern was Huo Chunyan's safety.
Perhaps this is just a mother's reaction.
Shen Zhixia asked, "Mom, do you want to go in and see her?"
Huo's mother wanted to see Huo Chunyan, so she went in for a quick look, but respecting the doctor's advice, she left again soon.
The doctor didn't want them to disturb Huo Chunyan, as it would definitely be detrimental to her condition, so naturally she couldn't disturb her.
On the other side.
Huo Xinran lives a very carefree life.
Having gained experience in her second marriage, she completely controlled Cai Wenhua's family, making them obedient to her every word.
Originally, Cai's mother had planned for her to serve Cai Wenhua, but now it's Cai's mother who cooks for her every day.
There was no other reason; whenever Huo Xinran was asked to cook, she would make a complete mess of it, and it wasn't on her own. Nobody could do anything about it, so they had no choice but to give in.
Anyway, she is Huo Chenzhou's sister, and Cai Wenhua will still have to rely on Huo Chenzhou in the future, so he wouldn't dare to bully her.
Huo Xinran realized for the first time how great it could be to be in a superior position after marriage.
She wasn't afraid of being exposed.
Huo Chenzhou is a respectable person and wouldn't break ties with her for no reason. As long as she maintains peace with them, Cai Wenhua won't see anything amiss. In addition, she occasionally runs into Huo's mother and is able to have friendly exchanges with her, which makes Cai Wenhua think that she has a very good relationship with the Huo family.
But if the Huo family doesn't help Cai Wenhua, it's Cai Wenhua's own fault and has nothing to do with her. She was only ignored by the Huo family because she was implicated by Cai Wenhua.
Huo Xinran has already decided to pin all the blame on Cai Wenhua.
If Cai Wenhua discovers the truth later, it will probably be many years later, by which time their children may already be adults.
None of these things matter anymore.
Marriage, in its essence, stems from deception. You deceive me, I deceive you, and so on, until the end of our lives.
If everyone were completely honest and revealed all their deceptions and flaws, many people in the world would be unable to get married.
Huo Xinran went out shopping in a good mood. She was injured but still had forty yuan with her, which Cai Wenhua had given her.
Of course, Cai Wenhua didn't initially intend to give her money; it was only after she fought for it that he finally gave Huo Xinran a considerable amount of money, considering she was a member of the Huo family.
Huo Xinran is quite satisfied with her current life.
As soon as she stepped onto the street, she saw a middle-aged man selling bicycles.
bike!
Huo Xinran couldn't help but walk closer. Bicycles were something only rich people could use. Back in her village, only the village chief's daughter had a bicycle, which she envied so much that she had to say a lot of nice things before she finally got to ride her bike.
So Huo Xinran can ride a bicycle.
Back then, she thought that when she grew up, she would buy a bicycle, but unfortunately, even when she grew up, she still couldn't afford one.
Even Huo's mother wouldn't buy her something so rare, since a bicycle costs two hundred yuan.
But she heard that Huo Chunyan's dowry included a bicycle, which Huo Chenzhou and Shen Zhixia bought for her.
How come Huo Chunyan is so lucky?
If she were Huo's biological daughter, that would be wonderful; then she too could have so many things.
When the middle-aged man saw her, his eyes lit up, and he quickly said, "Do you want to buy a bicycle? This is a Flying Pigeon brand bicycle, an old brand, very easy to ride. I only bought it half a year ago, it's very new, and I'll sell it to you cheaply."
Huo Xinran shook her head: "Your car is so new, even if you sell it to me cheaply, I still can't afford it."
A brand new bicycle like this costs over 200 yuan, and a used one in such good condition must cost over 100 yuan. The village chief's daughter used to buy a second-hand bicycle. It looked very dilapidated and creaked when you rode it, but even in that terrible condition, she still spent 60 yuan on it.
Huo Xinran can't afford it.
The middle-aged man said, "It's not expensive. If you want it, it'll only cost fifty yuan. I have a family emergency and I need to leave here immediately. I can't take the car back with me, so I'm selling it cheaply to help me raise some travel expenses."
Huo Xinran was somewhat tempted.
Fifty yuan...
Wow, that's so cheap! This bicycle is really new. Even if she buys it and then resells it, she can still make a lot of money.
How come she's so lucky today? She keeps running into such good things?
She tentatively said, "Uncle, you're selling it so cheaply, there must be a lot of people buying it from you, right?"
At this price, there's no worry about them not selling.
The middle-aged man said, "Of course, I'm losing a lot of money right now. At this price, there will definitely be a lot of people scrambling to buy it, but not everyone needs a bicycle. It's a high-end item, and I'm in a hurry to sell it."
He said to Huo Xinran, "Judging from your appearance, you're dressed so beautifully, you must work nearby. If you buy this bicycle, you can ride it to work or go shopping. It's a great option and will definitely turn heads."
Huo Xinran was a vain person to begin with, and she was completely swayed by what the middle-aged man said.
She just wanted to show off that she owned a bicycle.
This bicycle is indeed beautiful.
But she didn't have that much money on her.
Huo Xinran then said, "Uncle, could you please keep this car for me? I only have forty yuan on me. I'll go borrow some more money."
She really wanted to buy the bicycle and now wanted to ask Cai Wenhua for some money.
The middle-aged man frowned deeply, as if he had made a big decision. He suddenly said, "Then I'll give you forty yuan. I'm in a hurry to leave now and don't have time to wait for you to borrow money."
"Is this true? Uncle, you're so kind!" Huo Xinran exclaimed excitedly.
So the two exchanged money for goods, and Huo Xinran rode away on her bicycle.
She felt incredibly lucky today.
Huo Xinran deliberately rode her bike slowly, feeling like everyone was watching her. After thinking for a moment, she deliberately rode her bike near Huo Chunyan's residence, hoping that Huo Chunyan would see her bicycle when she came out.
However, she lingered nearby for a long time but did not see Huo Chunyan.
Huo Xinran felt a pang of disappointment.
