Woman 30: I regained my life after divorce

"Gas tank, this is what happened~ Just now my sister and I carried the gas tank downstairs to fill it with gas, and she suddenly felt unwell, so we went to the hospital. The gas tank is still downstairs," Zhou Sen said guiltily.

"What? You actually threw the gas tank downstairs? Wait, I'll go check it out."

The landlady hung up the phone angrily, got up from the bed, and walked out in her slippers.

"Old woman, what are you doing so late at night..."

The landlord’s aunt’s husband muttered.

The aunt turned around and sighed, "I'm so angry! Xiao Zhou was in a hurry to go to the hospital and threw the gas tank downstairs!"

"Thrown downstairs? Oh my god, can we still find it?" sighed my aunt's husband.

"I'll go check it out right now. If I can't find it, I'll ask this guy to transfer money to me!"

The landlady said with a grin.

"Then go and have a look. I won't accompany you."

My aunt's husband turned over and prepared to fall asleep.

"No need for you, I'll go by myself!"

The landlady didn't even change out of her pajamas. She just put on a coat and went downstairs.

The two houses were not far from each other, and in just a few minutes, my aunt arrived downstairs of the building where Zhou Sen and his family rented.

However, the gas tank was long gone.

Seeing this scene, a surge of anger rose in my aunt's heart.

Unable to bear it any longer, the aunt called Zhou Sen directly.

Zhou Sen was sending messages in various fishing friend groups, preparing to borrow some money. However, after he sent out the message to borrow money, the group, which was originally bustling, suddenly became silent.

Just at this moment the landlord's aunt called.

Zhou Sen answered the phone without thinking.

"I ask you, where did you put the gas tank?" the aunt asked angrily.

"It's right downstairs, at the front entrance of the unit," Zhou Sen said with certainty.

"I'm at the door of the unit now, and I haven't seen any gas tank at all," my aunt replied gritting her teeth.

"Could it be lost?" Zhou Sen exclaimed.

"Think about it again, where did you put the gas tank?"

My aunt lowered her voice to avoid an emotional outburst.

"Aunt, please look for it again. Did someone help carry it upstairs?" Zhou Sen thought naively.

"You think everyone is as stupid as you! I'm telling you, come back and find the gas tank, or you'll have to pay me!"

My aunt finally couldn't bear it anymore and started yelling.

"Aunt, my sister is in the hospital right now. I really don't have time to go there. Could you please help me find her? Thank you~"

Zhou Sen was afraid that his aunt would continue to bother him, so he hung up the phone.

“Hello…Hello!”

My aunt was so angry that she stamped her feet.

"You little bastard, you lost my gas tank. Wait for me~"

Auntie said gesticulatingly.

"Aunt Mei, what are you doing? Why are you so angry?"

My aunt's tenant passed by downstairs and happened to see my aunt in a rage, so he came up to her with curiosity.

"Xiao Zhao, let me ask you, have you ever seen a gas tank?", the aunt asked anxiously.

"Gas tank?"

The young man and his friend looked at each other and shook their heads at the same time.

"It's over, my gas tank is lost~"

The aunt muttered to herself, then suddenly raised her head and shouted like a tsunami: "Who stole my gas tank? Hand it over to me immediately!"

It was the middle of the night, and after this shout, even the voice-controlled lights outside the community were turned on.

However, no one responded to her.

"Who stole my gas tank, who stole... cough cough cough..."

My aunt shouted a few more times, until she almost vomited blood, but still no one paid any attention to her.

"Auntie Mei, why don't you call the police? No one will admit it if you shout like that."

The young man persuaded.

"Calling the police probably won't help. Losing things has become a common occurrence in our neighborhood. It's all Xiao Zhou's fault. I'll call him right now!"

The aunt couldn't get over the hatred in her heart, so she called Zhou Sen again.

Zhou Sen didn't want to accept it, but there were still a lot of things in the rental house, all of which were bought today and were worth several thousand dollars.

He was afraid that these things would not come out after he offended his aunt, so he had to bite the bullet and answer the phone.

"Auntie, have you found the gas tank?" Zhou Sen asked with a deliberate smile.

"I'm looking for you, I'm telling you, transfer 500 yuan to me right now, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless," the aunt shouted fiercely.

"What? Five hundred yuan? Can a gas tank be worth five hundred yuan? Aren't you extorting me, Auntie?" Zhou Sen asked directly.

"Do you know how much trouble it is to buy a gas tank now? Don't say anything, just transfer the five hundred dollars to me now!", the aunt shouted without allowing any room for negotiation.

"Aunt, I'm really short of money now. I haven't raised enough money for my sister's medical expenses. Can you please have mercy on me? I'll give you money when I have money~", Zhou Sen begged humbly.

"I don't care. Even if your sister dies due to lack of medical expenses, you still have to give me these five hundred dollars!"

My aunt had no intention of giving in, and her words were very unpleasant to hear.

Zhou Sen originally wanted to try to please his aunt humbly, but when he heard what his aunt said, he immediately became furious.

"I don't care. I definitely can't give you 500 dollars."

Zhou Sen also shouted back.

"Ding~"

Coincidentally, at this moment the door of the operating room opened and several doctors came out escorting the operating bed.

After seeing Zhou Xinyao being pushed out, Zhou Sen hung up the phone without hesitation and rushed over.

"Doctor, how is my sister? How is she?" Zhou Sen shouted worriedly.

"Shh~ Keep your voice down. Your sister is not in danger of death at the moment, but we are really unsure about the baby in her belly. Also, the conditions in our hospital are limited. I suggest you go to a larger hospital."

The doctor looked at Zhou Sen seriously and said.

"Big hospital...Do you have any recommendations for a hospital?" Zhou Sen asked worriedly.

"Let's go to Jiangcheng. The provincial hospital is much better than our small hospital in terms of medical level and treatment ability. Your sister is in such a bad condition that she will have to be hospitalized to protect the fetus at best."

The doctor looked at Zhou Sen with deep sympathy and said.

Zhou Sen was silent. He wanted to send Zhou Xinyao to the provincial hospital, but he was thinking that he couldn't even raise the money for treatment in a small hospital, let alone going to the provincial hospital.

Only now did he realize how important money was, so important that he felt he could exchange his life for Zhou Xinyao's hospital expenses.

"Brother, it's okay. We don't have to go to the provincial hospital. It's fine here."

Just when Zhou Sen was in a daze, Zhou Xinyao's weak voice reached his ears.

He subconsciously lowered his head and found that Zhou Xinyao had woken up and was looking at him with a forced smile.

"Zhou Min, are you awake?"
