Reborn into the 70: Turning Adversity into Her Dazzling Path-Chapter 520: 1800
When Liu Miao woke up again, she was already in the hospital.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Zhang Qiang and Zhang Qiang’s mother looking at her with excited expressions, their concern tinged with a hint of flattery.
Liu Miao was stunned for a moment, "Why... why am I here?"
For some reason, when Liu Miao saw them acting like this, she suddenly had a bad feeling; it definitely wasn’t what she was hoping for.
But very quickly, her mom extinguished the glimmer of hope she had in her heart.
Zhang Qiang’s mother smiled, just about to speak, when the hospital room’s door was pushed open, and in came the travel-worn Aunt Liu and Liu Tian.
Before anything could happen, Aunt Liu pointed at Zhang Qiang and began to curse him furiously, "You, Zhang Qiang, how dare you force yourself on my Liu Miao! My good girl is now pregnant because of you, and I won’t let you off the hook."
"That’s right, as if there’s no one left in the Liu Family." Liu Tian spat and said from behind.
"You... Mom, what are you talking about? Who’s pregnant?" Liu Miao abruptly sat up from the hospital bed.
"Oh, be careful as you get up, don’t scare my dear grandson." Zhang Qiang’s mother said hastily, her mouth full of old yellow teeth, identical to Zhang Qiang’s.
Liu Miao felt like vomiting just looking at her.
And she couldn’t hold it in; she actually vomited.
"Why are you having morning sickness so early? Quickly lie down," Zhang Qiang’s mother said anxiously, wanting to go forward to support Liu Miao, but was stopped by Aunt Liu.
"Isn’t it your Zhang Family’s doing?" Aunt Liu said angrily, "How do you plan to deal with this situation?"
Liu Miao closed her eyes, hoping she was dreaming, and when she opened her eyes, all of this wouldn’t exist.
She knew her mom rushed over not because she was genuinely worried about her but to extort more money from Zhang Qiang’s family.
"Deal with it? She’s carrying our Zhang Family’s child now, so she’s naturally one of us," Zhang Qiang’s mother said loudly.
Should they abort this child?
"Pah... Do you think you can make my sister one of your beloved without spending a dime?" Liu Tian said, "I’m telling you, no way."
"Zhang Qiang, tell me, how much bride price are you planning to give our family?" Aunt Liu looked at Zhang Qiang and said.
"Bride price?" Zhang Qiang smiled faintly, "Mom, how much bride price are you thinking?"
"She’s the only sister we have, and it’s not easy raising her to be so lovely. It should be at least eight hundred to a thousand," Liu Tian said.
"What? Eight hundred to a thousand? Your family is selling your daughter? Why don’t you go steal instead?" Zhang Qiang’s mother shouted outright.
"How is that stealing? How about this, five hundred bride price, and Liu Miao must give me ten yuan for living expenses every month from her salary," Aunt Liu said.
Ten yuan monthly adds up to one hundred twenty yuan a year, and it’s sustainable. She knows what her son is like; if they gave all the money at once, Liu Tian would surely squander it.
"Ten yuan, you really dare to think. Never heard of a married daughter having to provide living expenses for her mother’s household," Zhang Qiang’s mother said angrily.
"Why can’t she give it then?" Aunt Liu retorted defiantly.
The two of them started cursing each other with their hands on their hips in the hospital room over the bride price.
"Enough," Liu Miao shouted coldly, "I just want to ask you one thing."
Liu Miao looked at Zhang Qiang and said calmly, "Answer me honestly, and I’ll marry you."
"Liu Miao," Aunt Liu called. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺
This girl definitely doesn’t want to marry Zhang Qiang, and she knew it, "Don’t let him deceive you."
"How did you know I went to find Tang Wei?" Liu Miao said without even glancing at Aunt Liu.
Zhang Qiang was taken aback, not expecting Liu Miao to ask this.
