Woman 30: I regained my life after divorce

A few minutes later, the nurse came back with a list.

"I just asked the doctor, and he said you can pay 20,000 yuan first, but he suggested you prepare some more money to avoid delaying the later treatment."

Zhou Sen knocked his forehead hard and asked in a tangled and struggling manner: "How much money do I need to prepare?"

"At least thirty thousand, fifty thousand would be the best."

"Fuck, fifty thousand...where can I find fifty thousand?"

Zhou Sen beat his chest and stamped his feet.

"This is for you. The doctor has written a new prescription for you. Go and pay it quickly," the nurse handed the prescription to Zhou Sen.

Zhou Sen took the bill and went to the payment window again.

"Payment, WeChat payment."

The staff member took the order and started typing on the keyboard.

"Just put the code here."

The staff pointed to the barcode scanner at the window.

Zhou Sen quickly brought out the QR code and aimed it at the scanner.

"Drip~"

“Payment successful”

Zhou Sen flipped over his phone and took a look. There was only a little over 4,000 yuan left in his account.

He naively thought that the 50,000 yuan would last him several years, but he didn't expect that he would be stretched to the limit in just a few days.

Thinking that he would need to raise another 30,000 yuan, Zhou Sen became as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.

"Damn it, where can I find 30,000 yuan? If anyone can lend me 30,000 yuan, I'll do anything for it."

Zhou Sen squatted at the door of the emergency room and talked to himself.

An idea flashed through his mind quickly.

He thought of the 3,200 yuan he had given to the landlady.

At this desperate moment, Zhou Sen felt that the 3,200 yuan was a huge sum of money.

Thinking that Zhou Xinyao would have to stay in the hospital for several more days, the house would be empty anyway.

There was another reason. Thinking of this shabby house on the eighth floor with no elevator and no gas, Zhou Sen felt that all this was caused by the landlady.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. Zhou Sen picked up his phone and called his landlord's aunt.

This is the fifth call today.

The landlady had just finished washing up and was about to go to bed when the shrill phone ring rang.

"Who is this again? Can I please have some peace of mind?" the landlady muttered as she picked up the phone.

When she saw the familiar phone number, the landlord's auntie immediately became angry and yelled, "It's that Xiao Zhou again. He calls eighteen times a day."

After saying that, the landlady hung up the phone without any courtesy.

Zhou Sen was already furious, and when he saw that the landlady dared to hang up on him, the rage in his heart burst out.

"You damn old lady, you dare to hang up on me? Try hanging up again!"

Zhou Sen muttered to himself and called the landlady again.

"Who is this again? It never ends!"

My aunt's husband sat up suddenly and muttered in annoyance.

"It's the guy who rented the house today again. I'm really impressed," the aunt shouted helplessly.

"Answer him and see what he wants. Tell him not to call him all day long," my aunt's husband complained.

"Okay, I'll tell him right now."

My aunt answered the phone angrily.

"Xiao Zhou, what's wrong with you? Why are you calling me so late? Can't you let me sleep?"

My aunt came up and started scolding me.

Zhou Sen was also full of anger and wanted to vent, but he was afraid that his aunt would get angry and not refund his rent, so he had to compromise.

"Aunt, I'm sorry for calling you so late," Zhou Sen replied humbly.

"Hey~ Xiao Zhou, you've made me suffer from nervous breakdown, what else do you want?"

"Auntie, I want to check out and stop renting. Please return the deposit to me."

Zhou Sen said cautiously.

"What's wrong with you? Do you want to check out again?", my aunt screamed.

"Auntie, I'm so sorry, my sister is sick and in the hospital, and I need money now, so I can only return the house. I hope you can understand."

Zhou Sen said in a good tone.

"Consideration? Can you be considerate of me? I'm so old, and I'm tortured by you eight times a day. Do you think it's easy for me~", the aunt shouted indignantly.

"Forget it, just return the house to him and save him the trouble."

My aunt's husband turned over and muttered in annoyance.

The aunt thought about it and felt that this was true. The most important thing was that she was really tortured by Zhou Sen today.

She was thinking that if she continued to receive so many calls every day, the rent would not be enough to pay for her blood pressure medication.

"Okay~ I promise to return the house to you, but I can't return the deposit to you."

My aunt still held on to the 800 yuan and refused to give in, which is very similar to what many landlords usually do.

Of course Zhou Sen was very unwilling. Not to mention 800 yuan, he felt that even 8 yuan was not negotiable.

"Aunt, you see we haven't lived here for a single day, please return the deposit to us. I'm really short of money!" Zhou Sen continued to swallow his anger.

"I've already told you before that according to the contract the deposit is non-refundable. Tell me, did I say that?"

Zhou Sen really wanted to say that he had never heard of it, but he was afraid of angering the landlady.

So he continued to lower his head and said amiably, "Aunt, we cleaned the house for you today and filled the gas for you. We don't want the money for the gas, just give me the deposit."

My aunt hesitated for a moment and replied, "I'll refund you 400 yuan, and stop arguing."

"Refund 600, please, Auntie."

Zhou Sen's voice was filled with tears.

Although my aunt's husband blocked his ears and didn't want to listen, the more he didn't want to listen, the more those words seemed to have legs that grew and drilled into his ears.

"Oh, old woman, just give it back to him. It's so unlucky to cry so much in the middle of the night."

The aunt rolled her eyes at her husband, but still agreed with his point of view.

"Xiao Zhou, since you are having such a hard time, I will refund your 600 yuan deposit. It will be 3,000 yuan in total. I will transfer it to you via WeChat later."

"Thank you, auntie. Thank you~", Zhou Sen shouted gratefully.

"Don't be so anxious to say thank you. I have one condition. That is, you must vacate the house for me tomorrow morning and don't delay my renting it out. Otherwise, I will definitely deduct money from you."

"Auntie, don't worry, I will."

"Okay, I'll give you the money tomorrow."

My aunt was about to hang up the phone.

Zhou Sen hurriedly shouted, "Aunt, please give me the money today. I really need it urgently. I know what you are worried about, but I want to tell you that the new things I bought today are all upstairs. They must be worth several thousand yuan. If I don't keep my promise, you can do with these things as you like."

"Is this what you said?"

"It's absolutely true. I guarantee it with my name," Zhou Sen said solemnly.

"Okay, I believe you this time."

The aunt didn't even hang up the phone and directly transferred three thousand yuan to Zhou Sen.

"Auntie, can you please look after the gas tank for me?"

"what?"
