Reborn in the Seventies: Pampered Wife, Owning some Farmland-Chapter 1412 - 1413: He Dares Not to Challenge
Yun Mingliang looked at Yun Mingze, "Did we oversimplify things? Maybe our younger aunt and the others were just talking, how could we have believed them? We assumed that as soon as Dad came to Kyoto, our younger uncle would definitely lend a hand."
Who isn’t selfish.
Our youngest aunt’s company is so huge, Dad’s medical expenses are just a drop in the bucket for them.
But now, it’s all fallen through, everything has come to nothing.
Previously, we were in debt because of buying a house, now we are in debt again because of Dad’s illness.
Yun Mingliang, in his thirties, suddenly felt a lot older.
He was initially opposed to it, but his wife made it very clear.
The kids need to attend high school, go to university, if we’re mired in debt, how will we pay their tuition?
But our younger uncle saw right through it, called directly to spell it out.
He didn’t dare not to show up; if he didn’t, they might both lose their jobs.
He didn’t dare challenge the capabilities of his younger uncle.
Sometimes he wonders, why couldn’t Dad be like his younger uncle, able to make money, or like his second uncle, able to contract for construction projects?
At least they wouldn’t have to struggle so hard. They would have relied on themselves, not their parents.
If their younger uncle had given them a leg up, would they have had to scrimp and save like this?
Did it need to come to this?
But he forgot, it was his own choice to stay put in his current job, not wanting to take the plunge into business. Would he be this despondent otherwise?
Assuming that as relatives, they ought to lend a helping hand.
Yet forgetting that not helping is fair, while helping is a favor.
Not realizing that you, without the business acumen to survive on the battlefield, ultimately lack the capability.
In fact, if the two brothers had decided to go into business and asked Yun Hao for a loan, Yun Hao would certainly have lent the money without a second thought. But they didn’t, because they were fearful of their younger uncle, their estrangement was their first step.
They envied how capable the children of their younger aunt were, even Niuniu, who married the head of Internal Medicine, and also received so much dowry.
When Yun Mingliang and his siblings got married, Meng Yunhan gave them each a set of gold and silver jewelry.
She didn’t favor any of them, treating him just the same as Yun Minghan and the eldest sister.
"Seeing how our younger uncle is acting, he’s not concerned with Dad’s affairs anymore. Our eldest aunt and younger aunt aren’t around either, and even grandfather and grandmother haven’t shown up."
The two brothers exchanged a look, seeing the same expression in each other’s eyes.
"Our younger uncle kept it from grandfather and grandmother."
The two brothers hardly ever came to Kyoto.
Whether Meng Yunhan had twins, or for the previous celebrations of their father’s and mother’s seventieth birthdays, they had never come to Kyoto.
If it weren’t for Yun Hai being treated in Kyoto this time, they probably still wouldn’t have come to Kyoto.
"What do we do now? If grandfather and grandmother knew about Dad’s situation, I wonder if they’d have a stroke?" Yun Mingze asked this also because his wife’s grandmother had a stroke and has been cared for a long time.
"How about we ask the doctor to prescribe some medicine, and we just take Dad out of the hospital?" Staying in this hospital, we don’t even know how much the daily medical expenses will be. Our money is just a drop in the bucket.
Nowhere near enough to cover the cost of treatment.
Suddenly feeling resentful.
Our aunts and uncle clearly could afford to treat Dad, but they’re unwilling to spend the money.
Dad is their big brother.
Could they really bear to let our grandparents experience the sorrow of burying their son?
"Discharge?"
But that’s all we can do now.
"But what about Dad?"
"We’ll talk to Dad properly, he’ll definitely agree. Whether the treatment works or not, we’re not ceasing to give Dad hope, it’s just that he simply can’t be treated, and in the end, he will need to... pass away."
