Chapter 323: Chapter 323: You’re Not Just Unfilial, You’re Also Foolish

Ge Guifen sneered, "You still thinking about going to the hospital to get treated? Your injury won’t heal; from now on, you can only lie in bed. Going to the hospital would just be a waste of money."

"I really don’t understand you two; you’ve saved up so much money, wasn’t it for use when you’re too old to move? Now that you both can’t move and need me to take care of your crap and pee, you still won’t give me money."

"With you like this, where am I supposed to get the money to take care of you!" Ge Guifen said shrilly, "Do you expect me to be a nanny for free?"

"I’m telling you, if you push me too far, I’ll head into the city and work as a nanny! At least when I serve others in the city, I can earn money!" Ge Guifen declared, "You two think I will serve you for nothing? Dream on!"

"Expect service but don’t want to pay. What? Do you want to take all that money you saved up into the coffin with you?"

Lu Zhenguo thought, although Ge Guifen was not a great person and her intention to ask the Lu Family’s elders for money was obviously not pure,

judging by what Ge Guifen had said alone, there was nothing wrong with it.

Lu Youxi felt that Guifen had made a pretty fair point so far and if she kept talking, who knew what else she might say.

Lu Youxi directly pushed the door open.

Startled by the sound of the door opening, Ge Guifen glanced over guiltily.

Seeing it was Lu Youxi and others, her expression panicked for a moment.

Old Madam Lu saw Lu Youxi and her teeth itched with hatred.

She was almost capable of a medical miracle, bouncing out of bed.

"You rotten bastard, you still have the face to come back!" Old Madam Lu’s most hated person was now Lu Youxi.

If it weren’t for Lu Youxi deceiving her, she wouldn’t have gone to withdraw money from the bank.

Old Madam Lu was uneducated and had no idea about printing bank statements.

If it weren’t for Lu Youxi’s deception, how would Ge Guifen have thought she had hidden the money on the card?

And how would she have tried to snatch her card, pushing her to the ground?

Only then did Ge Guifen seize the opportunity, deliberately not taking her to the hospital, causing her injury to worsen more and more, to the point where she couldn’t get out of bed now.

She and Old Master Lu now lay together all day long, eating, drinking, and relieving themselves in bed.

They were dirty and bedridden, looking less like people and more like ghosts, all because of Lu Youxi!

Old Madam Lu remembered her carefree days in the past, sitting outside in the sunshine cracking sunflower seeds when the sun was nice.

She could walk around the village and gossip with others.

During the holidays, she could even enjoy some meat.

But now, she could only lie here, smelling the foul stench of urine and feces filling the room.

Every meal was cornmeal porridge, completely lacking nutrition.

"I’ll kill you!" The contrast between then and now fueled Old Madam Lu’s rage even further.

"All this is your fault; you’re a harbinger of doom! A family ruiner, why don’t you just die!" Old Madam Lu’s eyes were red with fury,

wishing she could kill Lu Youxi.

No, killing her would be letting her off too easy.

Old Madam Lu wished she could paralyze Lu Youxi as well, to let Lu Youxi experience the pain she was enduring now.

Lu Zhenguo felt that Old Madam Lu had become deranged.

She never liked Lu Youxi before, and now she even blamed Lu Youxi for her own paralysis.

Seeing Lu Youxi, she would curse so viciously.

Lu Zhenguo shielded Lu Youxi behind him, "Mom, don’t blame everything on Youxi. Youxi has done her duty by you."

"You unfilial son!" Old Madam Lu furiously slapped the bed, "I’ve been ruined by that beast Lu Youxi, and you still take her side? You’re not just unfilial; you’re also stupid!"

"Do you even know what that beast has done!" Old Madam Lu pointed at Lu Youxi and scolded.

Lu Youxi spoke calmly, "Granny, keep scolding if you must. I’ve been scolded by you like this since I was young; I’m used to it."

"But I must say, although I often disagree with the things Auntie does, I find the words she said outside the door just now quite reasonable."

"Auntie is home alone now, taking care of you two elders. Moreover, you are not ordinary sick people; you’re both paralyzed in bed, having lost the ability to move and take care of yourselves. Eating, drinking, and everything else depends on Auntie. While she’s taking care of you, she also has to manage the work in the fields and the house."

"Taking care of you doesn’t bring in any money, but how much work can Auntie do alone in the fields? Surely, she can’t earn as much as before. At times like these, if you don’t give Auntie living expenses, how can she cope?"

"Auntie’s words may be unpleasant to hear, but they make sense. She has the merit and hardship of taking care of you, doesn’t she? Eating and going to the bathroom costs money, right? But you won’t even provide her with that, which is really too much."

"You better shut your mouth!" Old Madam Lu shouted angrily.

"But this time I can’t stay silent," Lu Youxi said, "Auntie actually makes a good point. If she went to the city to work as a nanny, she could earn quite a bit."

"In smaller cities, the cost of living is lower, and earnings are relatively less. In big cities, you earn more. Moreover, Auntie has the strength for heavy work, is efficient, and can lift and carry. One person like Auntie could do the work of two. With her qualifications, to be a nanny would have many people vying for her. After all, they would only have to pay one person’s wage, while Auntie could do the work of several people."

"Take the Imperial Capital, for instance. There’s definitely a base salary of three to five thousand a month," Lu Youxi said.

Ge Guifen’s eyes lit up when she heard Lu Youxi say this.

She didn’t doubt Lu Youxi’s words at all.

Lu Youbang had said that the earnings in the Imperial Capital were higher, and that one could earn much more than working in Hexing Village.

What she didn’t expect was that Lu Youxi would speak up for her, stand by her side at a time like this.

"Really?" Ge Guifen was truly tempted.

Old Madam Lu grew anxious at Ge Guifen’s reaction, afraid that Ge Guifen would truly leave them behind and go to the city to work.

Old Madam Lu glared at Lu Youxi harshly, "You little beast, bringing trouble as soon as you return!"

Wanting to sway Ge Guifen’s heart, to let her run off to the city to earn money and leave them behind.

Lu Youxi was really playing a cruel hand.

"You just don’t want anyone to take care of us, do you? You want Ge Guifen to abandon us here, to leave us to fend for ourselves, right!" Old Madam Lu accused furiously.

"Mom, how can you say that about Youxi!" Lu Zhenguo defended, "Youxi is just speaking a word of fairness for Ge Guifen. What did Youxi say that’s wrong? You and Dad refuse even to give living expenses to her, yet you expect her to take care of you?"

"Are you not paralyzed in bed now because you were so fixated on holding onto your money, reluctant to spend your own for treatment?" But Lu Youxi had given them the money before, and they still refused to use it for medical care.
