After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!
1432 You Can Talk About It Another Time
Just the day before yesterday, Liang Guo had been framed and accused of embezzling money from his workplace unit. He was blamed for all the recent wrongdoings at the workplace. He was actually innocent though. However, even if he managed to prove that he did not embezzle the funds, there were still many other issues to clarify! Now, he was like the public enemy! Everyone wanted to beat him up!
The rest of his colleagues had backers and only Liang Guo had no one to support him. He was subsequently fired from the workplace unit and given a small sum of compensation. It was as if they were paying him off for taking the rap. However, he had his whole family to take care of and there were so many people counting on him! This amount of money was not even enough to last his family for three months.
Liang Guo was at his wits' end now, so he could only use the "divine medicine" given by Qiao Mei as a tool to seek a way out. There were so many wealthy families in the capital who had elderly people at home or relatives who were seriously ill. These people were all eagerly seeking out Qiao Mei's "divine medicine"!
It did not matter if those people wanted the medicine for the sake of survival or longevity. So long as Liang Guo could provide them with some, they would reward Liang Guo with a lifeline and save him from a dead end.
"I guess the amount is considered sufficient for now. At most, I'll give him more the next time," Liang Guo said resignedly.
Liang Lan leaned forward cautiously and said, "Elder Brother, is the person you found this time reliable? It's not easy to get this medicine. There's no guarantee that we can get more in the future. If this person can't help you, we should find another person!"
"Shoo, shoo, shoo! What does a woman know! The person I found is definitely reliable! I spent so much effort to get a chance to see him in person! Don't talk nonsense!" Liang Guo said disdainfully.
The person he found was the Song family's eldest son, Song Dan. This man was about the same age as Xia Zhe and was already the section chief of the city police department! He was the youngest section chief in the capital!
Song Dan's family was not as distinguished as the Xia family and he was the only promising kid in the entire Song family. Otherwise, Song Dan would already be as outstanding as Xia Zhe by now. The fact that he achieved so much without much help from his family made him an exceptional man among his peers.
Most importantly, Song Dan and the city police department chief's son, Du Miao, were childhood friends. The two of them were so close that it was like they were two peas in a pod. If Song Dan could find Liang Guo a civilian post in the police department, it would be a cushy job for him to live a good life for the rest of his life!
"Elder Brother, don't be angry. I'm just worried about you. Can he help me too?" Liang Lan probed.
"One bottle of medicine can only help one person. How can you be so greedy! He won't agree to help with so many requests. Wait for your turn the next time. The next time Qiao Mei gives you the medicine, the favor is yours!" Liang Guo said.
He had thought that the previous bottle of medicine was Qiao Mei's way of compensating Liang Shu on behalf of her family. He did not expect them to be able to get another bottle this time, and that the medicinal effects were even better than the last round!
He did not think that Qiao Mei was the one who was so generous. It must be Qiao Qiang who could not bear to see Liang Shu suffer. Perhaps Qiao Qiang still cared for Liang Shu. In that case, as long as Liang Shu's health did not improve, Qiao Mei would have to keep supplying her with "divine medicine". How could Qiao Mei go against Qiao Qiang's wishes?
Liang Lan swallowed her anger. At this moment, Liang Guo still had the final say in the family. She had no status in the family and it did not matter what she said. Anyway, she did not mind waiting until the next round. If Liang Guo did not succeed this time, then she would ask Liang Guo to find another family to help them. It would still be much better than her going out to ask for help herself.
"Wait upon Mother well. Let me know if Qiao Mei comes around again! I'm going to take care of something important!" Liang Guo carefully put away the "divine medicine" and made to leave.
Liang Lan hurriedly grabbed Liang Guo's arm and said, "Elder Brother! Um… shouldn't you give me the money you promised the last time? Mother and I don't have any money for food."
Liang Shu only had these two children. She had hidden away all her money and no one was allowed to touch it. In order to trick Liang Lan into taking care of Liang Shu, Liang Guo had agreed to pay for the two women's expenses every month. It sounded like a reasonable arrangement to Liang Lan, that she would put in the hard work while Liang Guo paid for the expenses.
Unexpectedly, Liang Shu had been sick for almost a month but Liang Guo still had not given her a single cent. Liang Lan had to go around the Liang family's old house to search for money that was stashed away and she only had five dollars left now. If Liang Guo did not give them money soon, they would really starve to death.
"I need the money to grease palms and pull some strings! Wait a little longer! I'll give you money when I have extra!" Liang Guo said, trying to brush her off.
