Protagonist:

Chai Mi

"Oh my... Grandpa, if you put it that way, that piece of land is still yours. Since the land is yours, you shouldn't drag up all those distant and recent things. I'm young, haven't seen much of the world, and don't understand that many principles. I just know my mom got sick from overwork. Since you say the land is yours now, never mind the future; just talk about right now. It's been over a day, and you haven't even gone to see how sick my mom really is. In your own words: is this how things should be?"

Chai Mi's words could be described as thoroughly barbed.

On top of that, there were many onlookers, and Village Chief Liu Zhanggui was present, so no matter what Chai Zhongxiao wanted to deny, it was useless.

This person liked to put on a show, making their Old Chai Family appear harmonious and untroubled.

Also to shirk responsibility, he said: "I've been busy... Grandma and I haven't had time to spare, we were just thinking of going to the hospital to see your mom... In a bit I'll send Third Uncle to the hospital, and I'll take the chance to see your mother."

"No need. Either the land goes to my family, or you pay for my mom's treatment. Why say all that empty talk?" Chai Mi couldn't be bothered listening to Chai Zhongxiao's evasions. "Since the Village Chief is here, Grandpa, just state your position directly. Pay money, or give land. Pay money, pay now. Give land, sign and press fingerprint now. Perfect, the Village Chief can serve as witness."

Chai Zhongxiao's brows instantly furrowed tight, he narrowed his eyes at the unyielding Chai Mi, cursing her bloody in his heart, but constrained by Village Chief Liu Zhanggui's presence, and by the fact he was truly in the wrong on this matter, he suddenly stammered and couldn't get words out.

Liu Zhanggui took one look at the situation and understood the meaning. Moreover, he originally intended to lean toward Chai Mi, so he said: "Seventh Uncle, you make the call. This matter, I'm fine either way. Whichever you choose, I'll serve as witness and guarantor for you both. Once done, we'll flip the page on this..."

Chai Zhongxiao: I neither want to give up land, nor pay money.

Chai Youde had the exact same thought.

But Wang Huirong's mind wasn't that complicated. Right now she just found Chai Mi annoying and wanted to send her packing as soon as possible.

Although she usually threw tantrums and rolled on the ground, that was because she hadn't met a ruthless opponent. Today meeting a Chai Mi wielding a kitchen knife, Wang Huirong's temper visibly shrank.

"Fine fine fine, paying money or giving land both work. Once you give it to me, you happily scram far away, and don't come to my courtyard again." Wang Huirong wrinkled her nose: "However much your mom's hospitalization cost, I'll give it to you."

"Three thousand."

"Why don't you go rob a bank?" Wang Huirong flew into a rage the moment she heard the figure: "Chai Mi, you little yellow-haired girl, don't be shameless."

Chai Mi spread her hands: "It really cost three thousand. The examination fees alone were over two thousand, injections cost several hundred, food cost a hundred and change."

"What examination costs that much?" Liu Zhanggui couldn't help asking either.

After all, right now, three thousand yuan in this era truly wasn't a small sum. You have to know, in this era, those who could become ten-thousand-yuan households were few and far between in the village.

This three thousand yuan, Liu Zhanggui also felt Chai Mi was asking an exorbitant price.

Chai Mi directly took out the hospital fee receipts and handed them to Liu Zhanggui.

Liu Zhanggui took one look at the receipts, and they really were that much money. He couldn't help shaking his head: "The items are quite detailed. Brain CT, MRI, color ultrasound, blood routine, etc. all done... what does this leg CT mean? I heard your mom had dizziness and head swelling, why check the leg?"
