Liang Lan grabbed Liang Guo's arm tightly and refused to let him go. She could not let Liang Guo get all the good stuff and leave her with all the hard work! She wanted a taste of the sweetness too!

"No! Otherwise, I'll stop taking care of Mother and go back home. If anything should happen to her, everything you have done will be for nothing!" Liang Lan threatened.

"If anything happens to her, do you get a good life in return?" Liang Guo questioned.

"It's none of your business whether I have a good life or not! You just need to know that if I don't take care of Mother anymore, then all your plans will go to waste!" Liang Lan said.

She had not been home for a month already and Xiao Jing had called her on the phone countless times. Every time he called, he would scold her for not taking care of her own family and would also threaten to divorce her. Xiao Yu also cried at home every day while waiting for her to go back.

Liang Lan had to promise Xiao Jing that she would send 20 dollars home every month before he stopped harassing her. He was happy to get spending money in return for the wife not being at home to nag him. However, even then, he could only tolerate the current situation for another two months. This was because there was no one at home to do the household chores.

In any case, Liang Lan already had nothing left. As the saying went, one who was down would fear no fall. Even if she just gave up and went home to take care of her child, she would still have a better life than Liang Guo.

After some consideration, Liang Guo took out a few meat coupons and vegetable coupons from his pocket, as well as 40 dollars. All these should be enough for the two of them to survive for a month and a half! Furthermore, Liang Shu did not need to buy medicine so there should not be any other expenses.

"This should be enough for both of you!" Liang Guo said sulkily.

"It's not enough. There's still the expenses from last month. Last month, I bought groceries for Mother out of my own pocket. The total is 34 dollars and you should pay me back," Liang Lan said as she stood at the door.

"She's your mother too! How can it be so hard on you to spend some money on her? Why do you have to kick up such a fuss about taking care of her!" Liang Guo roared.

"Why are you shouting! If you're so great, then why don't you take care of Mother yourself! I've already taken care of her for a month, so it should be your turn! Do you think I care about that little bit of money from you! If you get a helper, you still need to pay a salary of more than 50 dollars a month! Go hire someone to take care of her!" Liang Lan took off the apron she was wearing and threw it to the side, starting to walk off. Liang Guo quickly stopped her.I think you should take a look at ραΠdαsnovel.cοm

If Liang Lan really stopped caring about Liang Shu, then there was no one else to take care of the old woman. Bai Ming was still hiding in her parents' house now! Liang Guo's own house was already in a mess, so how could he find time to care about Liang Shu!

"Here! Whatever I said just now was just out of anger. How can you stay angry with me? I'm your biological brother!" Liang Guo immediately took out another 25 dollars from his pocket and continued, "I only have this much left but I'll give it all to you. Don't be angry. If you don't care about our mother, then who else can she rely on?"

"Alright, but you have to keep your word next month. Otherwise, I'll go straight home! My own child is still so young and needs me to take care of her!" Liang Lan said as she put the money into her pocket.

"Alright, I'll definitely remember to do it! If I forget, you can remind me. Let's not ruin the harmony between us siblings," Liang Guo said with a smile.

ραndαsnοvεl.cοm He still had to count on Liang Lan to steal the medicine! He had used the first bottle of medicine to finally get an introduction to Song Dan, so he needed to send this second bottle to Song Dan directly. If Song Dan agreed to his request this time, then he would give Song Dan another bottle. Two bottles should be able to guarantee him a good future!

"Fine…" Liang Lan said sulkily.

After Liang Guo left, Liang Lan hid all the money away. At night, she continued to give Liang Shu steamed buns, watery porridge with only a few grains of rice and homemade pickled radish.

Liang Shu struggled to pick up a steamed bun to throw it to the floor, but Liang Lan quickly said, "If you don't want to eat this, then there's nothing else to eat! The doctor says that you can't eat meat in your current condition! It'll only make your illness worse. Eat these light foods now and you'll recover quickly!"

Liang Lan was not worried that Liang Shu would become malnourished. Back then, Xia Mao was already dying, but he miraculously came back to life after Qiao Mei fed him this medicine. In that case, even if Liang Shu did not eat or drink anything, it was entirely possible for her to stay alive just by eating the medicine.

Liang Shu had not eaten the entire day. She was worried that she would really starve to death if she did not eat something soon. In the end, she could not fight the hunger and put down the steamed bun obediently.
