Chandler knew that Jennifer had made up her mind. He reluctantly said, "Mom, I don't have time now. Otherwise, let's wait for Joy to come back and take her to an auto shop to have a look."
He couldn't deal with his mother, so he could only use a postponement strategy. When Joy came back to deal with it, he would not be too embarrassed.
"Since you don't have time, I'll take my granddaughter to buy a car, and then you only have to pay for it." Jennifer stared at her hopeless son. She knew what her son was thinking—he was just afraid of his wife.
"Mom, it's not easy to buy a car. You have to take it seriously." Chandler was very upset.
"It will be too late when you think about it." Jennifer said. Obviously, Chandler's postponement strategy didn't work for Jennifer. "Rose and Doris didn't have a car to drive for a week. Would you let them walk to work or school?"
"Then I'll drive them for a week." Chandler compromised.
But Rose didn't want to take Chandler's car either. They disliked each other and were embarrassed to meet each other.
She must buy the car today, otherwise it wouldn’t be easy to buy a car when Joy came back.
"Grandma, Dad, please stop arguing. I'll take a taxi with Doris. It's just a week anyway, we will be fine. Doris, do you think so?” On the surface, Rose was wronging herself. In fact, she was trying to force Chandler into a desperate situation.
“Of course not! How can my baby great-granddaughter take a taxi when she is just home for only one day? The Lin family would be a laughingstock. ” Jennifer couldn't calm down after hearing Rose's words, "Chandler, are you so henpecked that you dare not buy a car for your daughter? Why didn't you hesitate at all when you bought a car for Sophie? Why are there so many excuses for buying a car for Rose? Chandler, if you don’t agree to buy a car for Rose today, I will die in front of you.”
Jennifer picked up the fork on the table and pressed it against her neck, obviously threatening Chandler.
"Grandma, don't do that. I don't want a car anymore." Rose finally understood that grandma just loved her hard.
She was moved. Her eyes turned red in an instant, and tears filled her eyes.
"Great-grandmother, put down the fork. My mother and teacher said that it was too dangerous." Doris was not scared, instead she persuaded Jennifer. This little child had a kind heart.
Jennifer was also moved. She felt it was worth it for them.
"Mom, you're forcing me." Chandler wrinkled his face anxiously.
He looked at Rose and was very angry. He wanted the daughter to disappear.
"I'm just forcing you. If you were fair to Rose, I wouldn't be so!" Jennifer was too disappointed with her son.
"She just said she wouldn't buy it." Chandler said.
"It’s me that want you to buy it now. It has nothing to do with Rose." Jennifer looked determined. She repeated again, "Will you buy or not?"
"Okay, I'll buy it!" Chandler felt that his brain was about to explode. He could only agree in the end.
"Remember what you said." Jennifer took the fork away from her neck.
Chandler left angrily. He didn't want to stay for another second.
Rose stepped forward, took her grandmother's hand and said, "Grandma, I don't want you to risk your life. Don't do it for me. You will only make me feel unfilial."
"I'm old and useless. I can only fight for you while I'm still alive." Jennifer sighed, and sad, "I must finish what I can do for you now. I'm afraid I won't live long..."
"Grandma, I don't want you to say that! You have to stay with me and Doris." Rose knelt at her grandma's feet, hugged her grandma, her head on grandma’s knees, tears streaming down her cheeks.
"Great-grandmother will live a hundred years old." Doris ran over and said naively.
"Ok." Jennifer stroked them with a faint worry in her heart.
