""Are you expecting me to pay for your stuff because I'm richer than you?"
Jing Yiren pointed to her own small nose in confusion.
The woman nodded, "Yiren, you know your uncle earns so little, and it cost nearly a thousand yuan for your grandmother to be hospitalized in the county hospital. You're well-off now, why make things difficult for us? Come on, reimburse me!"
With that, the woman shoved a stack of receipts into Jing Yiren's hand.
It was then that Jing Yiren understood. She still had an uncle back home, her grandmother's son, and this woman in front of her must be her uncle's wife.
According to hierarchy, Jing Yiren should call her "aunt".
Jing Yiren, still somewhat confused, said, "Isn't it natural for my uncle, my grandmother's son, to pay for her medical expenses?"
It wasn't about the money for Jing Yiren, but about this situation not making any sense.
Her grandmother's son refusing to pay her hospital charges, expecting her granddaughter to cover it instead.
