"Third Aunt, please tell Aunt Yang that we don't know what will happen to Grandma now. I need to take care of her, I need to work, and I need to earn money. I really don't have the energy to date."

"Moreover, I owe a lot of money."

Li Jiahong waited for Zhou Yi's answer, but she didn't expect him to still want to shoulder the burden alone. She immediately wanted to persuade him again, but just as she opened her mouth and was about to say something, Zhou Yi said the next sentence, which immediately stopped Li Jiahong from speaking.

Li Jiahong's expression changed instantly, and she quickly said, "You owe a lot of money?"

“How much is a lot?”

Zhou Yi thought for a moment and said, "It should be over a million."

"Over a million...?"

Li Jiahong was completely shocked, and her face turned pale.

They couldn't earn that much money in a lifetime, so how could Zhou Yi owe so much?

For a moment, Li Jiahong was so shocked that she couldn't speak.

Zhou Yi continued, "This time, when Grandma was sick, the doctor hired the best doctors and she stayed in the best ward. There were professional caregivers and nurses looking after her every day, which cost a lot. Now that Grandma's condition has stabilized, she needs to be transferred to Yunzhou City. The cost in Yunzhou City will be even higher. And we don't know when Grandma will wake up. We don't know how much it will cost after that, but it will definitely cost at least a million. Hospitals are very expensive."

"I don't want to date or get married at this time, and I don't want to be burdened with debt and have someone else take care of it. I think that's unfair to anyone."

Zhou Yi spoke very seriously. After listening, Li Jiahong's mouth moved repeatedly, wanting to speak but unable to utter a single word.

How could she forget that hospitals are places where money flows out as soon as you enter, and you can't help but spend it?

She knew her aunt's situation very well, and she was afraid that she had spent a lot of money over this period of time.

My aunt hasn't woken up yet, and we don't know what will happen next. What if she stays asleep forever?

Li Jiahong understood what Zhou Yi meant.

It's really inappropriate.

Although Zhou Yi was going through a difficult time and finding someone to rely on was the best option, it was unfair to the man no matter what.

People have no obligation to make sacrifices. Even when getting married, it's not like you can't marry into a good family. There's no need to choose someone from such a terrible family.

Li Jiahong sighed and said, "Third Aunt understands what you said. Third Aunt thinks you are right, but Third Aunt is still feeling sad."

It got so congested all of a sudden.

How can Zhou Yi repay so much money by himself?

They can't really help much, so what will become of this child in the future?

Zhou Yi heard the heaviness in Li Jiahong's voice and smiled, "It's alright, Third Aunt. The money I owe is all from my boss. I'll work hard for my boss and be able to pay it off no matter what. You don't need to worry."

"You've met my boss; he's a really great person."

Hearing Zhou Yi's words, Li Jiahong felt a little comforted. Fortunately, the boss was very kind, otherwise she wouldn't know what to do with Zhou Yi.

"Yes! Your boss is great! Just focus on working for your boss and put dating and marriage on hold for now."

Only then did Li Jiahong realize that Zhou Yi was going to date and get married, so how could he work?

There's simply no time to work.

It would be such a shame to give up such a good job and boss.

At that moment, Li Jiahong was very firm and refused outright.

It won't make a difference if we wait a little longer.

Young people these days tend to get married later, so Zhou Yi is so young, there's no rush!

Thinking it over, Li Jiahong quickly said, "Third Aunt won't bother you with your work anymore. You just focus on your work. As for introducing someone to you, Third Aunt will talk to your Aunt Yang about it. Don't worry about it, Third Aunt will take care of it for you!"

Zhou Yi smiled and said, "Okay, Third Aunt, thank you for your help."

"Call me if you need anything. If I don't answer, I'll call you back when I see the message later."

"Okay, Auntie understands!"

Without saying anything more, Li Jiahong hung up the phone decisively and said to Yang Quanxiu, who had been standing next to her listening to her take the call, "Zhou Yi won't talk about it. Now that Auntie is in this situation, Zhou Yi owes her boss a lot of money, over a million. You tell them that Zhou Yi doesn't want to drag them down and that they should find someone else."

Yang Quanxiu didn't leave when Li Jiahong answered the phone; she was right next to her, and she heard everything Li Jiahong said clearly.

So her brows were furrowed tightly at that moment, and when she heard Li Jiahong finish speaking, she shook her head and said, "Do you really think so?"

"If that's really the case, and word gets out, I'm afraid no one will come to propose marriage anymore."

Millions of dollars is a huge sum of money for ordinary people in small counties, towns, and villages; many people can't earn that much in their entire lives.

It's fair to say that Zhou Yi is currently heavily in debt.

If this gets out, Zhou Yi might never be able to get married.

Li Jiahong raised her chin, her face full of arrogance: "That's how it is!"

"Let it get out of the news. Zhou Yi has the ability to pay it back, and we can afford to pay it back. Just you wait and see!"

Li Jiahong absolutely trusted Zhou Yi; she believed Zhou Yi could repay the money.

Absolutely.

Seeing Li Jiahong's expression, Yang Quanxiu shook his head helplessly: "Alright, since you put it that way, then I'll reply to them like that."

Li Jiahong said, "Go back early, don't dawdle."

Yang Quanxiu: "..."

Yang Quanxiu left, and Li Jiahong went to work on the farm. She started doing the accounting, thinking that if she could feed more chickens, ducks, and pigs, she could help Zhou Yi a little bit.

Hotel suite.

The busy signal came through, and Zhou Yi picked up her phone with a smile on her face.

She didn't tell her family her actual salary because it would be inconsistent with her previous job. She had calculated that she could pay off the debt by working for her husband.

So she wasn't worried.

As long as her grandmother is well, she has a way to solve everything else.

Aunt Dong was washing and cutting fruit at the bar when she saw Zhou Yi hang up the phone and asked, "Miss Zhou, is your family trying to set you up with someone?"

The bar was in the living room, and Zhou Yi was also in the living room. Zhou Yi made a phone call without hiding it from Aunt Dong, so Aunt Dong heard everything Zhou Yi said.

Seeing Aunt Dong cutting fruit, Zhou Yi put her phone down and went over to help: "Yes."

Aunt Dong nodded: "Miss Zhou, you're of age, it's normal for your family to introduce you to potential partners. You're at the perfect age to start dating."

Zhou Yi smiled and shook her head: "I don't want to talk about friends."

Aunt Dong wasn't surprised to hear this: "I understand, Miss Zhou. Given your grandmother's current condition, you probably don't have the energy to date."

"One reason is that I don't have the energy, and another reason is that I haven't thought about dating or getting married."

Hearing Zhou Yi's words, Aunt Dong was surprised: "You haven't thought about dating? You haven't thought about marriage either?"

"Miss Zhou, you don't want to date or get married?"

This surprised Aunt Dong.

After all, Zhou Yi is very young. When you are young, you will see outstanding boys, you will like them, and then falling in love and getting married will be a natural thing.

But Zhou Yi never expected that.

Zhou Yi washed her hands and fruit, and said with a smile, "Grandma and I are doing fine, it's very simple and not complicated. If I date someone and get married, I will have to get married and leave Grandma. I'm worried about Grandma being alone at home. But if I bring Grandma to my husband's house, his family will definitely not be happy, and then there will be a lot of problems."

"I think it's too much trouble."

Aunt Dong probably understood.

Zhou Yi wasn't afraid of trouble, but she couldn't bear to leave her grandmother and was worried about her.

She couldn't let go of her grandmother.

Aunt Dong said, "Ms. Zhou, don't worry, your grandma will get better, she'll wake up, and she'll be healthy again."

"The doctors you have hired are all very good. If you go to Yunzhou City, the doctors will be even better."

When Zhou Yi heard Aunt Dong mention "sir," a smile instantly filled her eyes: "Yes! I know, I'm not worried."

With you here, everything will be fine.

However, when the topic turned to her husband, Zhou Yi looked at the sky outside and then around, asking, "Aunt Dong, is your husband home?"
